“For an average Dharma adept, after using a Sky Sun elixir, it would be enough for them to develop their Dharma Power intensively… As for me, I have four Dharma Powers within me. If I only use one Sky Sun elixir, it would be split among the four Dharma Powers and would thus be insufficient.”
Seeing the bottle of core drugs in his hands, which contained seven Sky Sun elixirs, Zhou Donghuang’s eyes shone.
“With this, I can now use the shortest time possible to develop the four Dharma Powers within me and they can all cross over into the ultimate Dharma stage!
Under the technique of the Lord of Four Supremes, which Zhou Donghuang utilized to enter the Primordial Soul stage, one had to first push their four spiritual Dharma Powers within their bodies to the ultimate Dharma stage. If one of the Dharma Powers were not at the ultimate Dharma stage, it would then be impossible to cross over to the Primordial Soul stage.
Because of this, since Zhou Donghuang had long dreamt of being a Primordial Soul adept, he thus had to think of ways to allow his four Dharma Powers to cross over to the ultimate Dharma stage within the shortest time possible!
“Da Zhuang.”
After eating the drug, Zhou Donghuang paid Da Zhuang a visit and gifted him with two Sky Sun elixirs. “These two core drugs are Sky Sun elixirs and both contain powers that are comparable to that of the Sky Sun fruit.”
Even though Da Zhuang may not have been familiar with the Sky Sun elixir, he was certainly familiar with the Sky Sun fruit.
Once he heard Zhou Donghuang’s words, he immediately returned the bottle of core drugs containing the two Sky Sun elixirs to Zhou Donghuang. “Little brother, these core drugs are too precious. Use them yourselves. It would be wasted on me.”
“There are two Sky Sun elixirs within the bottle. One is for you, and the other is for He Mengxi. Help me give the other elixir to He Mengxi… These core drugs act in the same manner as the Sky Sun fruit. After you consume one, consuming a second will not make much difference.”
Zhou Donghuang did not take back the bottle of core drugs from Da Zhuang. “Don’t worry, I have more elixirs with me.
“In the near future, for a period of time, I intend to isolate myself and focus solely on my training… If there aren’t any urgent matters, please do not disturb me for this time being. Please help me pass on this message to Third Senior Sister as well.”
Once he had spoken, Zhou Donghuang then returned to his room to train.
He urgently wanted to allow the four Dharma Powers within him to cross over to the ultimate Dharma stage, which was a prerequisite for him to enter the stage he desired and be a well-rounded ultimate Dharma adept.
Once his four Dharma Powers had crossed over to the ultimate Dharma stage, he would then have the confidence of killing an average Primordial Soul adept. “Once my four Dharma Powers have crossed over to the ultimate Dharma stage, I shall visit the Guiyao planet yet again to see if I can gain more benefits there.”
In the past, during the Alliance Hunt, Zhou Donghuang had already discovered that the Guiyao planet was somewhat strange and had suspected that a giant demon was spawning there.
In places where giant demons were born, there would be a great deal of opportunities.
If he had not known about this, it would not matter.
However, since he was aware of this, he would do what was within his nature and make a trip down to explore this possibility.
In his past life, although he did not have many natural talents, the reason why he had managed to stand at the peak of the infinite universe 1000 years later was because he was willing to take risks.
After Zhou Donghuang went into isolation, Da Zhuang went to pay He Mengxi a visit and passed the Sky Sun elixir to her, “Third Senior Sister, little brother said that for the near future, he will be isolating himself for training. If there aren’t any urgent matters, do not disturb him.”
“I understand.”
After receiving the Sky Sun elixir from Da Zhuang and finding out that its effects were comparable to that of the Sky Sun fruit, He Mengxi was immensely shocked. “Training one’s core using spirit fruits and having one drug be comparable to that of many… Isn’t this the ancient method of Internal Alchemy?
“Little brother… He is even able to use the Sky Sun fruit as his main ingredient to manufacture the Sky Sun elixir? Does he actually have access to this superior method of Internal Alchemy?”
Even though Da Zhuang was unaware of this, it did not mean that He Mengxi was equally ignorant.
“This… could this also be a part of the benefits that little brother had reaped during that incident in his dreamscape?”
He Mengxi could not help but assume.
At the same time, she looked sternly at Da Zhuang. “Da Zhuang, regarding this Sky Sun elixir, do not share this information with anyone else… not even with my father.”
It was undeniable that He Mengxi trusted her father immensely. Even so, this matter was important, and the lesser people knew about it, the better.
She could only imagine that if news of her junior disciple having a method to create superior elixirs leaked out, Zhou Donghuang would be the target of many within the Hengliu galaxy as such a method was extremely desired.
It was so extreme to the point where those from other galaxies which possessed enough resources or wealth would even pay the Hengliu galaxy a visit just to find Zhou Donghuang with the intention of stealing the method.
The seriousness of the situation warranted ultimate discreteness on the part of He Mengxi. At the same time, she was a little baffled as to why her junior disciple had been so careless to forget to warn Da Zhuang to keep this matter under wraps.
What He Mengxi was unaware of was that Zhou Donghuang had not bothered to warn Da Zhuang as he had ultimate confidence and trust in Da Zhuang.
…
As one of the two Transcendental Forces within the Hengliu galaxy, the Qi Dynasty was located in a corner of the galaxy, and its dynasty territory included tens of planets.
In total, the Qi Dynasty encompassed 13 planets.
These 13 planets all belonged to the same orbital system of the Hengliu galaxy and were in the same solar cycle.
Among these 13 planets, the biggest one was where the capital of their territory was at.
The direct descendants of the Qi Dynasty as well as the legends were all mostly gathered within the capital… As for the planet where the capital was at, it was named King Qi Planet and had been renamed after the Qi Dynasty had been gradually built up.
The 14th prince, Qi Rui, could be considered a prince and a son of King Qi. However, as his talents and abilities were not as superior compared to the other princes and princesses, he was not really noticed by King Qi.
King Qi had over 20 sons and daughters, and he only focused on those who were more capable and outstanding.
For those who were like Qi Rui, in the eyes of King Qi, they were almost invisible, and this caused him to have a rather average status among the royal lineage of the Qi Dynasty.
These many sons and daughters all came from different mothers.
King Qi had a main queen as well as over ten concubines, and one of these concubines had given birth to Qi Rui.
However, although Qi Rui was only average at best in terms of martial arts and natural talent, he had a biological brother who had the exact same parents as him. Among King Qi’s many sons and daughters, this brother of Qi Rui’s ranked in the top three in terms of talent and was greatly favored by King Qi.
This biological brother of Qi Rui’s was the seventh price, Qi Feng.
Qi Feng was only about 40 years old, but he was already a mid Primordial Soul adept. Other than being greatly favored by King Qi, he was also responsible for gathering news on the various sects within the Alliance of the Hengliu galaxy.
The connections within the Alliance of the Hengliu Galaxy were all controlled by the seventh price, Qi Feng.
Qi Feng looked only to be about 30 years old despite his age, and he looked regal, having bushy and stern eyebrows frame his face. He was someone who commandeered the respect of Qi Rui, the 14th prince, when they met.
“Seventh Brother.”
Once Qi Rui had met Qi Feng, he seemed rather speechless. Although the other party was merely a brother of the same father and mother, every time they met, he felt as though he was meeting with his father, King Qi; they gave off the same regal vibes.
Qi Feng seemed to be extremely stern and distant as well.
“Speak.”
Qi Feng’s tone was extremely formal, and this conversation was similar to that of an elder speaking to a junior rather than two biological brothers having a conversation.
Qi Rui seemed to have already gotten used to this a long while ago, and he did not show any surprise. “Seventh Brother, I’ve paid you a visit this time to ask you for a favor.”
Once he had spoken, seeing as Qi Feng merely stared impassively at him and did not speak, Qi Rui scrambled to continue speaking. “This time, for the Alliance Hunt organized by the Alliance, I was present to monitor the Hunt to verify if anyone managed to win the Sky Sun fruit…”
Due the fact that for the last hundreds of year, there had been no one from the various sects of the Alliance who had managed to win the Sky Sun fruit during the Alliance Hunt, the Qi Dynasty had gone from being extremely cautious of this matter to relaxing their supervision of the Hunt.
If not, they definitely would not have sent someone like the 14th prince, who was viewed as lowly amongst the royal lineage of the Qi Dynasty.
Sending Qi Rui was simply an act of formality.
“This time, someone actually managed to obtain the Sky Sun fruit!”
At the start, the seventh price’s face still had on a rather neutral expression. However, once Qi Rui had finished his report, his facial expression changed slightly, and a shocked look appeared in his eyes. “Someone within the sects of the Alliance managed to be the top scorer and surpassed 10000 points in the Alliance Hunt?”
In the Alliance Hunt, one could only obtain the Sky Sun fruit by fulfilling these two criterions.
“That is correct.”
Qi Rui nodded his head. “The person in question is a disciple of the Lightning Sword Sect, and he is a late Dharma adept. In this year’s Alliance Hunt, he managed to accumulate over 40000 points and successfully obtained the Sky Sun fruit.”
Once Qi Rui had uttered these words, Qi Feng immediately shouted aloud without a pause.
“What did you say!? More than 40000 points!?”
He thought he had misheard Qi Rui.
After asking Qi Rui to repeat himself, Qi Feng realized that he had not misunderstood the situation.
Furthermore, he learned more details of this extraordinary matter from Qi Rui. “Zhou Donghuang, a disciple of the Lightning Sword Sect, managed to achieve this feat of accumulating so many points in the Alliance Hunt due to the fact that he managed to train his Dharma Power to the Dharma Power Control stage.
“Hmph!”
Qi Rui scoffed aloud and spoke with a look of indignation. “Those people of the Alliance actually claimed that Zhou Donghuang had made history in the Hengliu galaxy in terms of being a Dharma adept who had mastered the Dharma Power Control!
“In my opinion, in the history of the Qi Dynasty, we definitely would have had a Dharma adept who had also mastered the Dharma Power Control much earlier. It was probably just that there were no records of such a happening.”
The more Qi Rui spoke, the more indignant he felt.
On the other hand, Qi Feng did not approve of this at all and he spoke lightly, “The Qi Dynasty has no Dharma adept who has mastered Dharma Power Control in its history at all… Even for the Guangling Academy, which is known to be superior to the Qi Dynasty, has never in its history had a Dharma adept who has mastered the Dharma Power Control as well…”
“A 26-year-old man at the late Dharma stage actually managed to master Dharma Power Control…”
Towards the end of his speech, Qi Feng was practically mumbling to himself. His eyes had also slowly lighted up, and his fists were slowly tightening as he spoke.
If he could somehow create a good relationship with this person…
This would mean that he would have a better shot at ascending the Qi throne in the future!
“Have you invited this extraordinary individual to the Qi Dynasty?” Qi Feng glanced at Qi Rui and asked.
“Yes.”
Qi Rui nodded his head. At the same time, an angry look appeared on his face. “He is a rather ignorant man, though, and directly rejected the invitation to join the Qi Dynasty…
“Furthermore, I did not even manage to share the price our Qi Dynasty was willing to pay him as compensation for the Sky Sun fruit. He immediately rejected me and did not give me any face at all!”
“Damn him!”
