The center of the desolate grave cracked open, and a dark figure with bloodshot eyes walked out, roaring Chen Xian's name angrily. "Hei Lian, you old dog, sooner or later I will refine you into a dog and make you bark every day." The old demon, Pitch Black Desolate, was so angry that Hei Lian helped Chen Xian three times, otherwise Chen Xian would never have been able to refine his flesh and blood. The reason why Chen Xian became so powerful was probably largely due to his flesh and blood. "come here!" The dark old demon pointed at a young man shrouded in a black robe behind everyone. If Chen Xian were here, he might be able to guess who the young man is. The young man was still somewhat conscious. When he saw the old demon Huang pointing at him, his cold face twisted under his clothes. However, before he could react, he was grabbed by the Fire Emperor and thrown into the sealing formation. The Dark Old Demon grabbed the young man's neck and dragged him into the desolate grave. …… Lizhou.

In the palace, Ning Chen has recently encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation and has been stuck at the sixth level of the Wanxiang realm with no progress. "Mr. Yang, how can we develop the Wanxiang Tianjue?" Ning Chen was now stuck on this matter. The main techniques he practiced were the [Ten Directions Dragon Elephant Technique] and the [Eight Desolations God-Slaying Technique], and he was only at the fourth level of the Eight Desolations God-Slaying Technique and had not yet practiced it to perfection. He had cultivated the Ten Directions Dragon Elephant Art to great success and was heading towards perfection, but now he was unable to figure out the Myriad Things Heavenly Absolute and was stuck in a stagnation. The old blind man briefly asked Ning Chen about his cultivation method and asked Ning Chen to perform it again. “In terms of power, your Ning family’s Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art is definitely more powerful, but as far as I know, no one in your Ning family has ever cultivated the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art to more than the seventh level. Your father is only at the fifth level, right?” Ning Chen was surprised, he had no idea what level his father had reached in his cultivation. "You need to practice the Eight Desolations God-Slaying Art to the fifth level before you can delve into the power of supernatural powers. In fact, you don't have to rush to create the Myriad Things Heavenly Absolute now. The Myriad Things Heavenly Absolute is only the prototype of supernatural powers. It won't be too late to delve into it even if you reach the ninth level of the Myriad Things." "So that's how it is." Ning Chen understood. "While you are improving your cultivation realm, you can also practice the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art. If you want to use the Ten Directions Dragon Elephant Art to develop magical powers, that's fine too. However, its power may not be as strong as the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art. Think it over before you do any research." Ning Chen nodded repeatedly: "Junior understands, I will go to practice now." The old blind man said, "Since I came to protect you, your cultivation speed has indeed been very fast. I don't care how you cultivate, but such a fast progress needs to be polished. Don't rush for success, otherwise your state of mind will be unstable. Going astray is a small matter, but I am afraid that your state of mind will be damaged and you will stay in the realm of all things forever." "Everything has to be done in moderation. It is necessary to take a proper rest and adjust your mood. Sit down and chat with me first." Ning Chen was a little surprised. Today was the day the old blind man spoke the most since they met. He understood that although he might not feel it, others could still see him very clearly. There must be something wrong with his state of mind in his cultivation. So he sat down with a smile and started chatting with the old blind man. three days later. Ning Chen's mind has become much more open. Although his cultivation has not made any progress, he has reached the sixth level of All Things, which makes him the fastest among all the princes. He believes that when he returns to Kyoto to get married this time, his father will definitely look at him with new eyes. On this day, Gou Da Teng came to the palace to discuss marriage with Ning Chen. "Master Gou, I have already submitted a letter to my father about this matter. I am still waiting for news, which should be coming soon."

"That's good. My Gou family is also fully prepared. When you set off for Kyoto City, Your Highness Prince Li will be informed of the news. Please remember to inform my Gou family." Gou Datang said with a smile. On February 20th, Eunuch Hou came to Licheng in person. He first met Ning Chen and conveyed the Emperor Ning's order. The wedding date of Ning Chen and Miss Gou was set on March 6th, and Ning Chen was asked to return to the palace three days in advance. Afterwards, Eunuch Hou went to the Gou family to convey the imperial edict. Ning Chen immediately asked Qin Fei, Zhang Xing and others to help spread the message. Qin Fei went to Fulong City, and Zhang Xing went all the way north, first to Qingyang to find Luo Ying, and then to Dongyoujing to invite Xue Qishan. At the end of February, Ning Chen and a group of Gou family members, with a total of more than ten carriages and escorted by five hundred Lizhou soldiers, headed for Kyoto City. An old blind man also came along, so we were safe along the way. In Fulong City. When Chen Xian got the news, he smiled and said, "It's time to get married." Ning Chen is no different from other princes. The mothers of other princes all have backgrounds and support from behind. The maternal family of the Ninth Prince Ning Chen is just a small martial arts family in Shanhai City, Lizhou. The family’s strength is not strong at all and they cannot provide any help to Ning Chen. If he were Ning Chen, after returning from the Demon-Suppressing Pass, he would choose a good martial arts family for marriage. This would give him a background and power, and also allow him to protect himself. The Gou family of Lizhou is not considered very strong among the martial arts families in the world, but it can be ranked among the top ten, which is already very powerful. "Wang Yan, go and get ready to go to Kyoto City." Chen Xian looked at Wang Yan and said. "Brother Xian, how many people are you planning to bring?" Wang Yan asked with a smile. "Fulong City still needs people to guard it. I will not go with you. You and Brother Fei, you and Princess Seventeen should go to Kyoto City first. I will definitely be there on the day of Brother Ding's wedding." Hearing this, Wang Yan nodded. Chen Xian made this decision because Ning Chen’s wedding would definitely be notified to Daning Jiujing, and he had to go to Kyoto City to attend the wedding banquet. This is an open matter. Once he leaves, others will know that if the old demon Huang in the Black Abyss takes the opportunity to come to Fulong City, Zhan Yu alone will not be able to stop him. So he let the Seventeenth Princess go first, and after Qu Xunyang escorted the Seventeenth Princess to Kyoto City and then returned to Fulong City, he would go to Kyoto City. When the Seventeenth Princess learned that Ning Chen was getting married, she was extremely happy. She packed up in half a day and went to Kyoto City with Qu Xunyang, Wang Yan, Qin Fei and others. "Chen Xian didn't leave?" In the Fulong Realm, there was an evil demon standing on a mountain peak. He was at the supernatural power realm and he was very well hidden. His spiritual eyes swept over the Seventeenth Princess' carriage and he did not sense Chen Xian's presence. hum! At this moment, a sword light broke through the air, and the evil demon's face changed slightly, and immediately turned into a ball of black gas and disappeared. Qu Xunyang, who was sitting on the shaft of the cart, had a cold look in his eyes and did not chase after him. The second day of March. Ning Chen rushed back to Kyoto City. After settling Gou Da Teng and others, he rushed back to the palace. He went to Daning Palace to meet Emperor Ning as soon as possible.

When the old eunuch Wei Cheng saw Ning Chen, his first reaction was a bit dazed. He stared at Ning Chen for a long time before he reacted and bowed slightly: "Your Highness the Ninth Prince has made rapid progress!" Ning Chen smiled and said, "It is rare to be praised by Eunuch Wei. I was a little late in getting wise, but it can be considered as a result of my accumulated experience." Wei Cheng smiled and said nothing more, but he was still very surprised. The last time I saw Ning Chen, he was still at the second level of Wanxiang. In just one year, he has already reached the sixth level of Wanxiang, advancing four levels in a row. It’s really fast! Emperor Ning was the only one in the imperial study. Although his dragon robe was neat and his dragon crown was bright, Ning Chen was still slightly stunned by his slightly sunken eyes and his hair that was almost completely white. He felt that his father looked very old, as if he could be blown away by the wind. "Your son pays respect to His Majesty." Ning Chen saw his father staring at him, and immediately stepped forward and bowed. Emperor Ning was a little dazed as he stared at Ning Chen. Before Ning Chen came in, he had already noticed that Ning Chen had reached the sixth level of Wanxiang. He was a little confused as to why Ning Chen could cultivate so fast? "Did you get an opportunity in the Immortal Tomb?" Emperor Ning stared at Ning Chen with slightly sunken eyes, trying to see through Ning Chen. "Your Majesty, I have not obtained the chance to become an immortal." Ning Chen's mind remained unshaken. When he came out of the Immortal's Tomb and Emperor Ning asked him about it, he had answered like this. There was no way he could change his answer, otherwise he would be guilty of deceiving the emperor. At least he would not tell his father the truth until he was able to protect himself. Emperor Ning stared at Ning Chen with some disbelief. If Ning Chen did not obtain the immortal fate, why was his cultivation speed so fast? He has been paying attention to the eight people who came out of the Immortal Tomb. Except for Chen Xian's father and sister, the others have made rapid progress. Tang Can is at the second level of Wanxiang, Xiahou Feng is at the third level of Wanxiang, Ning Chen is at the sixth level of Wanxiang, Wang Yan is at the first level of Wanxiang, Ning Shiqi is also at the second level of Wanxiang. Chen Xian is even more terrifying and could have fought against Shen Tong Manmian long ago. Chen Xian's father and sister are ordinary people. He still believed it before they got the opportunity, because after coming out of the Immortal Tomb, the two of them did not change much. But Tang Can and the other four improved very quickly. "I'll give you another chance. Did you and Seventeen get the chance to become immortals in the Immortal Tomb?" Emperor Ning sat up straighter, his eyes wide open, staring at Ning Chen. Ning Chen felt a strong sense of crisis and lowered his head quickly: "Father, everything I said is true. I really didn't get the immortal. If you don't believe me, you can ask the Seventeenth Sister when she comes back." Hearing this, the dark devilish energy in Emperor Ning's eyes flashed away, and his gaze softened slightly: "What kind of skills do you practice?" "Reporting to Emperor Father, it's the Ten Directions Dragon Elephant Art and the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art." Ning Chen breathed a sigh of relief and told the truth. "Don't practice the Ten Directions Dragon Elephant Art anymore, and concentrate on practicing the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art. If you can practice it to the seventh level or above, you will definitely be able to reach the Sky-Breaking Realm and become a true Martial Emperor in the world." "Son, can I do it?" Ning Chen said with an unconfident look. "It's very likely." Emperor Ning said with a frown. Ning Chen was only thirty years old, but he had already reached the sixth level of Wanxiang. This cultivation speed was thirteen years faster than his back then, which meant that Ning Chen's talent was even better than his. If Ning Chen concentrates on studying the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art, he may be able to reach the Sky-Breaking Realm after a hundred years. Emperor Ning's eyes flickered. If Ning Chen could really reach the Sky Breaking Realm a hundred years later, it would not be a bad idea for him to give his position to Ning Chen. But now he is not sure whether he can live another hundred years. Unless he makes a new breakthrough in his practice of the [Black Fire Sacred Scripture], his injuries heal, and his cultivation strength recovers, then living another hundred years will definitely not be a problem, and he may even be able to break through to the Sky Breaking Realm. "Then I will devote myself to practicing the Eight Desolate God-Slaying Art." Ning Chen nodded and said. Emperor Ning leaned back in his chair and looked at Ning Chen. He used to dislike Ning Chen, but now, he found that this son was much more pleasing to the eye.

He is not much worse than the eldest prince, the second prince, and the third prince. Of course, if Ning Chen had a little brains, he could easily defeat those three sons. He still needs to observe Ning Chen carefully. If he is completely controlled by Chen Xian, this is not what he wants to see, even though Chen Xian is the prince consort and his son-in-law. He still hopes that Ning Chen has his own opinions. "I arranged a marriage for you with the Gou family without your permission. You don't blame me, do you?" "Father, what are you talking about? How could I blame you? You are ill, but you still worry about me. I am grateful to you forever." Emperor Ning nodded: "You are an honest and filial child. Ever since your mother passed away, I have actually been paying attention to you..." Ning Chen was slightly excited when he mentioned his mother. He took advantage of Emperor Ning's hesitation and asked, "Father, how did my mother die?" Emperor Ning's eyes flickered slightly. He stared at Ning Chen for a while before saying, "When your mother gave birth to you, she suffered heavy bleeding. It was only because I intervened in time that she was able to survive..." He paused and said, "Do you think your mother is at the Jade Pill Realm, how could she bleed profusely?" Ning Chen nodded. His grandfather said that his mother was at the Jade Dan realm when she entered the palace and was the fastest cultivator in the Su family. "Let me ask you, since you can remember, have you often felt weak and powerless? Has this symptom disappeared since you started practicing?" Emperor Ning asked. Ning Chen was slightly stunned. Could it be that his father had really been paying attention to him? If you hadn't been paying attention to him, you would definitely not know about this, because only the young eunuch who grew up with him knew about this. Unfortunately, that young eunuch is already dead, killed by the eunuch of the Sixth Prince. Later, Liu Dai appeared by his side, but he never told Liu Dai about this matter again. "Father, what is going on?" Ning Chen asked. "It is true that your mother was at the Jade Dan realm when she entered the palace, but she was seriously injured and the person who hurt her is dead." Emperor Ning said lightly. "Father, who is that person?" "The Poison Saint, Dugu Xin." Ning Chen couldn't believe it. Her mother was only at the Jade Dan realm, how could she have provoked the Poison Saint Dugu Xin? “It’s a long story. Back then, Li Qingfeng and the Poison Saint Dugu Xin fought fiercely at Longshou Mountain. Your mother was training there and was affected. Because of this incident, Li Qingfeng was hit by Dugu Xin's palm and was seriously injured. Li Qingfeng used the Ten Thousand Swords Returning to the Sect to injure Dugu Xin, and rescued your mother in the process." Ning Chen asked: "Father, who is Li Qingfeng?" Emperor Ning's old eyes flickered, "I don't know Li Qingfeng, but you should know Li Hanyue." Ning Chen nodded: "She is the number one genius of the Zhenwu Dao Sect, I know that." Emperor Ning frowned and said, "Li Qingfeng is her uncle, the great-great-grandson of Li Daozhen, the old leader of the Zhenwu Dao Sect. This man's talent in swordsmanship is better than that of the Shadowless Sword Saint Qu Xunyang. At a young age, he wants to challenge Qu Xunyang and win the title of Sword Saint, so he came to the palace with your mother." "It's a pity that the two of them didn't fight, they just sat down and talked about it." "Later, Li Qingfeng left in a hurry because of something urgent. At that time, your mother was about to give birth. Because she was seriously injured and had not recovered, she was affected during labor and almost died from heavy bleeding. I saved her life, but when you were born, your skin was pale and your face was bloodless. So I gave you the True Dragon Jade Gourd." "Speaking of which, the True Dragon Jade Gourd was given to me by your mother. Later, I found out that the True Dragon Jade Gourd was a talisman given to her by Li Qingfeng."

"Although your mother managed to save her life, she was too weak. Later, she heard from somewhere that Li Qingfeng had died in battle overseas. She was very sad and depressed. Later, she caught a cold, and the poison in her body worsened, and she died." Ning Chen had a dull look on his face, he didn't know what expression he should show at this moment. Because he didn't expect that his mother really died of a cold. It’s just that the process is so tortuous and heart-wrenching. "Father, is Li Qingfeng really dead?" Ning Chen asked. "I don't know either. I've never heard of this. Your mother also listened to the maids' nonsense and was too worried, which led to her catching a cold. Sigh, it turns out that I didn't care enough about her." Emperor Ning shook his head and sighed, his old eyes filled with memories. Ning Chen stared at his father for a moment, not knowing what to say. He didn't know if his father had concealed anything, but it sounded like there was nothing wrong with it. If his mother really passed away like this, then he would not need to avenge her, because the Poison Saint Dugu Xin was also dead. Let’s just put this matter behind us. ...(End of chapter)
