Previously, Jiang Ziyue awakened to the second-level martial arts seal and became a disciple of the four-star elder Mr. Fang Jing. She became a direct disciple from the outer sect and traveled abroad all year round.
Zhou Yuan thought she would never come back, but he never thought that after more than two years, there would be news about her again.
"What's wrong with Jiang Ziyue?" Zhou Yuan looked at Yun Chen.
Yunchen couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhou Yuan's somewhat urgent expression.
"Brother, don't be nervous. I also heard from my master that Mr. Fang Jing died accidentally when he was traveling abroad. If Jiang Ziyue followed him, her life would probably be at stake," Yun Chen said.
Zhou Yuan was stunned. It turned out that this was what happened. He thought Jiang Ziyue was coming back.
But if Jiang Ziyue died like this, wouldn't his revenge be avenged?
After thinking for a while, Zhou Yuan asked again: "Then how did Mr. Fang Jing fall?"
"There is a kind of seven-star jade in the academy that can seal the five senses and six consciousnesses of some people. After Mr. Fang Jing's death, the seven-star jade shattered. Through the fragmentation traces of the seven-star jade, plus the location of their master and disciple's death, we can make a preliminary judgment
, Mr. Fang Jing died at the hands of an evil force outside Qingzhou."
Yun Chen explained the details.
Zhou Yuan looked stunned. He knew about the Seven-Star Jade. After he was promoted to a core disciple, he sealed part of his five senses and six consciousnesses in a piece of Seven-Star Jade and kept it in the Tianji Pavilion of the academy.
The Seven Star Jade belonging to all the elders and some disciples are kept in Tianji Pavilion.
If Mr. Fang Jing encounters a huge life and death crisis, Tianji Pavilion will be aware of it immediately and use special means to investigate.
However, Mr. Fang Jing and Master Jiang Ziyue are both far away in Qingzhou, and there is nothing the academy can do to save them.
"The evil force is called Feng Mo Sect. Its sphere of influence is very large and cannot be dealt with by our Seven Star Academy. Moreover, it is outside Qingzhou, so this matter can only be left alone."
Yun Chen continued.
Zhou Yuan nodded silently.
Among the Seventeen Kingdoms of Qingzhou, Tianyun Kingdom is just an ordinary small country.
The sky is huge, and there is an even bigger world outside Qingzhou. The academy knows very little about the Feng Mo Sect, so it is naturally helpless.
And once Mr. Fang Jing dies, Jiang Ziyue may not survive either.
"I see, Jiang Ziyue's matter is quite important to me, but there must be a bigger conspiracy when the third prince Yun Zheng leaves the academy. Your Highness should be extremely careful in the future." Zhou Yuan paid respect to Yun Chen.
a glass of wine.
Yunchen was also very generous and drank it all in one gulp.
Then Yun Chen pondered for a moment, looked at Zhou Yuan solemnly and said: "Zhou Yuan, do you have any free time these days?"
"Your Highness, if you have anything to say, just tell me." Zhou Yuan waved his hand.
"In seven days, I have something that I need your help with." Yun Chen did not explain directly.
Zhou Yuan understood it immediately and nodded with a smile.
Everyone else, on the other hand, looked confused.
"What's the matter? It's so mysterious?" Jing He rolled his beautiful eyes and asked angrily.
She had a close relationship with Yunchen, but Yunchen even hid it from her.
Yunchen suddenly looked embarrassed, and immediately laughed, "No...it's okay, it's all a matter between men."
Jing He crossed his arms, pouted his mouth and snorted softly. He obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't ask any more questions. Yunchen was the prince, so there was no need to report everything to her.
Yun Zheng left, and Yun Chen completely relaxed.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and as agreed, Zhou Yuan arrived at the mountain peak where Yun Chen was.
"Are you ready?"
On the top of a high mountain, Zhou Yuan looked at Yun Chen sitting cross-legged on a flat ground and asked.
Yun Chen nodded, "Ready."
"No, I don't think you are ready yet. I have some experience. Let me tell you first. Maybe it will give you more inspiration." Zhou Yuan said seriously.
Yun Chen has finished gestating and raising that star-shaped treasure gourd, and he wants to absorb the energy inside.
The reason why he asked Zhou Yuan to come here was because he wanted Zhou Yuan to protect him.
Yun Chen was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, "What do you think?"
Zhou Yuan then told Yun Chen all the contents he had read in the fairy court books.
There are many risks involved in breaking the martial arts seal and then establishing it. If not, Yun Chen will be a real useless person from now on.
Zhou Yuan could not afford to let the prince of a country become a useless person.
As Zhou Yuan explained, Yun Chen's eyes became more and more fiery, as if he could see the sun through the clouds. If he was only 70% sure before, after listening to Zhou Yuan's explanation, he already had a 100% certainty.
Half an hour later, Yun Chen entered concentration again.
Zhou Yuan walked further away to protect Yun Chen from being disturbed.
Yun Chen flipped his hand, a green light flew out from the ring, and the star-shaped treasure gourd appeared in his hand.
The starry gourd represents the twinkling stars, and the small text on the surface also shines brightly.
That paragraph of text expounds the point of view that martial arts seals are broken and then established, and it also contains a special cultivation method. This method is obscure and difficult to understand, and it took Yun Chen many years to fully understand it.
At this moment, while running this technique, a special spiritual power condensed in Yun Chen's palm.
Immediately afterwards, the starry gourd floated up on its own and began to spin slowly in front of Zhou Yuan.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Faint energy fluctuations emanate from the starlight gourd.
Under the guidance of Yun Chen's technique, the energy emitted gradually gathered into his body.
At the same time, the light between his eyebrows flourished, and the attribute power contained in the cyan martial arts seal spread in all directions.
Click! Click!
After a while, cracks visible to the naked eye appeared on the surface of this martial arts seal.
Yunchen's expression also became ferocious, and it was obvious that the shattering of the martial arts seal made him feel endless pain.
But the more painful he became, the more awake he became, and Yun Chen continued to operate his special skills.
If you want to absorb the energy in the Star Gourd, you must destroy your martial arts seal. This is similar to the way you want to practice a certain skill. You must first self-sacrifice, otherwise the energy in the Star Gourd cannot be absorbed.
Another moment passed.
Along with a clicking sound, the martial arts seal between Yun Chen's eyebrows instantly shattered.
Yun Chen's expression was ferocious, and the pain reached its extreme at this moment. He howled miserably, and his whole body suddenly emitted shocking energy.
"Not good." Zhou Yuan frowned.
The energy emitted belonged to the Star Gourd, but it was absorbed into Yun Chen's body, and as the martial arts seal was broken, it was emitted again.
But soon, Zhou Yuan's brows widened.
The moment the energy was dissipated from the body, Yun Chen forcibly pulled it back.
It could be seen that Yunchen regained consciousness instantly.
Without the martial arts seal, Yun Chen's body became smooth in an instant, and the energy in the Starry Gourd began to be continuously absorbed into Yun Chen's body.
At this moment, Zhou Yuan suddenly discovered that Yun Chen's cultivation level began to rise rapidly.
Yun Chen originally only had the third level of foundation building. After the martial arts seal disappeared, instead of showing any signs of falling, he began to rise sharply. In almost a moment, he reached the fourth level of foundation building.
Next, build the five layers of foundation.
Sixth level of foundation building.
The seventh level of foundation building...
Yun Chen's body roared, and a series of crystal clear Taoist platforms were condensed.
These Taoist platforms are close to perfection, but they are only close and have not completely reached the level of perfection. Compared with Zhou Yuan's Taoist platforms, they are still a little worse.
There are flaws in the Taoist platform, which are related to the cultivation method.
The technique recorded on the surface of the Starry Gourd is indeed of great origin and extremely extraordinary.
But it cannot build the Taoist platform as solidly and flawlessly as Zhou Yuan's Nirvana Controlling Thunder Technique, which means it is not the most profound technique.
It wasn't until a long time passed that Yun Chen's cultivation stopped growing and stayed at the peak of the ninth level of foundation building.
The energy in the Starry Gourd has not been absorbed completely.
The reason why Yun Chen stopped was because he encountered a realm barrier. No matter how much energy this barrier absorbs, it will not help.
Zhou Yuan looked shocked. In just half a day, Yun Chen's cultivation level was raised from the third level of Foundation Establishment to the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. This is incredible and will definitely shock the entire Seven Star Academy.
Yun Chen will also get rid of the title of coward.
"Successful." After Yun Chen finished his work, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.
Zhou Yuan also walked over with a smile, "Your Highness, you have really stood up after breaking down this time."
"Well, with this technique, my brothers and sisters still have to think carefully if they want to persecute me in the future."
"One thing, I still want to warn His Highness that in the future, it is best not to let anyone know secrets like this." Zhou Yuan said.
Yun Chen was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan was indeed warning him that only he knew this kind of secret. If it were anyone else, he would inevitably be coveted.
Time flies, autumn passes and spring comes.
In the blink of an eye, another year has passed by.
The news that Yunchen's strength skyrocketed because he followed Zhou Yuan's example and destroyed his martial arts seal caused a sensation in the entire Tianyun Kingdom.
After all, he is the current prince, and all kinds of actions can be used as talking points.
However, the other three princes took the opportunity to exploit the situation and believed that Yun Chen had no martial arts seal and had become a useless person. Such a useless person should no longer be the prince.
Even the old Emperor Yun once thought that Yun Chen was doing something wrong.
And Yun Chen's skyrocketing cultivation level was real. When Yun Chen went to see Emperor Yun in person, Emperor Yun saw his potential.
Although Yun Chen no longer has the martial arts seal, like Zhou Yuan, he can still exert the power of the martial arts seal.
This allowed Yun Chen to gain the trust of Emperor Yun and keep his position as crown prince.
In fact, Yun Chen didn't care about the prince. To be precise, he didn't want to be a king, he just wanted to focus on cultivation.
He has been watching the performance of several other princes. If there is a prince who is qualified to be the new generation of king in the future, Yun Chen will give up the crown prince's position without hesitation.
It was just the behavior of several princes that made him feel chilled.
Those princes speculated and plotted against each other for the throne of the prince, and did everything possible.
As for Zhou Yuan, he has not stopped this year.
Many people believe that Yun Chen was instigated by him when he destroyed his martial arts seal, which almost brought Zhou Yuan to the forefront.
Even the current Emperor Yun once wanted to declare an audience with him, but Zhou Yuan never saw the edict.
Because Zhou Yuan refused to become a disciple, he became a prominent figure in Seven Star College comparable to Zhao Wuya. Vice President Guo had approached him before and wanted to accept him as his disciple, but he still politely refused.
Many people were puzzled by this and thought Zhou Yuan was arrogant.
It was enough to refuse Elder Xingbiao to accept a disciple, but he also refused to accept a disciple from the Vice-Dean.
Vice-President Guo was very kind to Zhou Yuan when he was a junior student.
If it weren't for Vice President Guo, Zhou Yuan might not even be able to enter Seven Star Academy.
However, Zhou Yuan did not take these public opinions to heart and always maintained a non-commentary attitude. He often went to the Demon Hunting Forest alone to perform tasks and went to the Seven Stars Secret Realm to practice alone.
For core disciples, the benefits provided by the academy are very generous.
Every month and every year, different cultivation resources will be distributed. Zhou Yuan also took advantage of this to upgrade his cultivation to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm within one year.
The drizzle brings a touch of coolness to the hot summer.
Zhou Yuan stood in the courtyard with his sword in hand, his body covered with misty spiritual power, preventing the rain from staining him at all.
After closing his eyes for a long time, Zhou Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, and then his body shape changed rapidly, instantly forming countless afterimages in the courtyard, and strands of cold light flashed in all directions, forming strands of sword energy, slashing into the void.
And in this courtyard, not a single drop of the rain falling from the sky fell on the ground at this moment.
Zhou Yuan is at the eighth level of practicing the Nine Kills Sword Technique.
The sword technique is originally a one-hit kill, and the emphasis is on speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness, and this level of sword technique also tests Zhou Yuan's reaction ability.
The reaction must be quick, the movement must be agile, and the sword must be drawn cleanly and without any sloppiness.
When he mastered the seventh-level nine-kill sword technique before, Zhou Yuan could strike out with his sword twenty times at the same time within one breath.
But if you want to practice the eighth level of the Nine Kills Sword Technique, the conditions are even more stringent. You need to draw the sword fifty times within one breath. It is simple to say, but not so easy to execute.
This has exceeded Zhou Yuan's current limit.
So in order to practice this sword, how could Zhou Yuan give up such a good opportunity on a rainy day.
Within a three-foot radius, there were places that Zhou Yuan could quickly touch, and in one breath, hundreds of raindrops could fall from this area.
Zhou Yuan let go of his spiritual consciousness, carefully sensed every drop of rain, and then quickly drew his sword to train himself.
After a long time, Zhou Yuan increased his speed.
His previous swordsmanship was so fast that it was almost difficult for ordinary people to see it.
But the swordsmanship at this moment was as slow as a talisman.
However, Zhou Yuan's sword technique of Xingyunliushui brought all the rainwater with it, churning in the void, forming waves of water.
It wasn't until Zhou Yuan's movements stopped completely, and when the raindrops fell to the ground, that he let out a long breath and said, "It's done."
The eighth level of Nine Kills Sword Technique has been mastered.
At this moment, a figure walked in from outside.
"I think you should have been here a long time ago." Zhou Yuan looked at Yun Chen.
Yun Chen grinned, "Yes, but I saw that you were concentrating on practicing your sword, so I didn't bother you."
As he spoke, Yun Chen turned his hand over, a porcelain bottle appeared in his hand, and handed it to Zhou Yuan.
"Found it?" Zhou Yuan suddenly felt happy.
Yun Chen smiled and said: "Yes, I asked my father to find it from the army."
"Thank you."
Zhou Yuan was not polite and directly reached out to take it.
What is contained in the porcelain bottle is a few drops of medicinal liquid. This medicinal liquid is light red in color and is called Myogenic Spirit Liquid. It is prepared from many precious materials such as herbs and the blood of earth spirit beasts. It can make people who have lost limbs regrow their limbs.
Come limbs.
That is to say, Zhou Yuan has a relationship with Yunchen. Otherwise, if he were to make adjustments by himself, it would probably take until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse.
"I plan to go home in a while." Zhou Yuan said his next plan.
Yun Chen was stunned, then smiled and said: "That's right, you have been in the academy for almost four years, it's time to go back and take a look."
Zhou Yuan had actually wanted to go home for a long time and had been waiting for this bottle of muscle-stimulating liquid.
