Emperor Lord

  "Your Highness, Young Master has successfully cultivated the Jiaolong body!"

  In the thatched cottage where Grandfather Chen was staying, an old man bowed his head in front of him and reported on the situation from the previous night.

  "Jiaolong body, succeeded?"

  Old Master Chen's calm face suddenly showed a very strange and incredulous expression, as if he was afraid that he had misheard. He hastily asked: "Old Lin, are you saying that Ye has successfully cultivated the Jiaolong body?"

  "Yes, Your Highness, this is what I saw with my own eyes!" The old man replied respectfully.

  Old Master Chen's expression of astonishment instantly turned into shock, and the table in front of him was suddenly split in two by his hands.

  No one knows better than him how difficult it is to successfully cultivate the Jiaolong body.

  Jiaolong body is a kind of physical cultivation method. To cultivate it successfully, one does not necessarily get returns even if they pay a huge price.

  Because of the physical cultivation method, although it is different from the Xuan Qi cultivation, if there is no pure Xuan Qi as the foundation to protect the heart and blood vessels, it will definitely not be able to withstand the great pressure in the physical cultivation.

  Ke Chenye successfully cultivated at night, which also means that what he has to pay is not just pain...

  "Good night!"

  For many years, whether facing life and death or facing powerful enemies, Old Man Chen's expression had never shown a hint of weakness. Now, however, in the corners of his eyes, there were several streaks of crystal clear light flashing out rapidly...

  After a moment, Old Man Chen burst out laughing: "No wonder Ye had such a huge change, it turns out he found the path that suits him to walk..."

  Laughter subsided, and Old Master Chen said solemnly: "Old Lin, from today on, prepare the best cultivation environment for Ye. His cultivation will be monitored by you in secret. Remember, except for us, unless Ye himself reveals it, no one else must know."

  In the imperial capital, the Chen family was not in a desperate situation, but due to the imperial family's targeting, every member of the Chen family was under the scrutiny of some deliberate individuals.

  In the past, Chen Ye's humble background and lack of connections meant that no one paid attention to him. However, if people were to find out about his current accomplishments, some unavoidable troubles would follow, so Old Master Chen had to make preparations in advance.

  This grandson has finally achieved something, can't let someone ruin it.

  "Don't worry, Your Highness, I know what to do!" The old man's face was also stern, and he replied solemnly.

  Old Man Chen nodded and his eyes immediately turned cold, saying in a chilly voice: "Now they all take Ye as the entry point, wanting to use this to deal with my Chen family. Very well!"

  "I'll just wait here and see what kind of tricks these people will come up with!"

  "Your Highness!"

  At this moment, a ghostly shadow suddenly appeared in the room and respectfully said to Chen Zhong: "Your Highness, the person you are waiting for has arrived."

  Upon hearing this, Old Master Chen's face turned stern in an instant, his aura reaching its peak. A chilling murderous intent swept through the small room like a raging storm.

  "Old Lin, immediately clean out the traitors in the government who are already known, don't leave any alive. As for those people from the imperial family, kill one to warn a hundred, I believe they will have some restraint, if not, then please ask them to leave..."

  In the empty room, staring at the scattered sand and dust on the ground, Chen Ye's mouth twitched slightly as he sat down cross-legged, his mind immediately sinking into his body, carefully sensing the changes that success had brought to himself.

  It wasn't long before Chen Ye clearly felt that after the successful cultivation of the Jiaolong body, all his flesh and bones seemed to be covered with a thin layer of keratin!

  This layer of keratin emits a faint, eerie glow. In his senses, this layer of keratin is extremely soft and closely adheres to the flesh and skeleton, making Chen Ye feel as if he has an illusion that with his current strength, even a late-stage Seventh Layer Realm Xuanwu warrior would find it difficult to kill him.

  Moreover, with the appearance of this stratum corneum, between the originally tightly connected blocks of flesh and bones, a faint black substance seeped out from within.

  As a warrior, Chen Ye naturally understood that this black substance was impurities in his body.

  Physical cultivation, although it cannot be compared to the mysterious energy, will slowly proceed as the physical strength increases, and the intensity will become greater and greater, thereby eliminating bodily impurities more thoroughly.

  It is precisely because of this that the physical cultivation, after cultivating power to the realm of transformation, can exhibit a power comparable to that of a top-notch master of the mysterious energy... However, he has only just begun to enter the door now, and what is called the success of the Jiaolong body is also just entering this gate.

  Walking out of the training room, the sky was already as dark as ink, but I could still see the hint of a joyful smile hanging on Chen Ye's mouth.

  The dragon's body has entered the gate, which means that the path you have chosen is correct!

  Although this time's success is related to that small knife... Chen Ye's mind stirred, and he opened his palm, a white glow appearing, with the small knife quietly floating inside.

  "Little knife, want to go see where you appeared?"

  The heavy oppression of the two worlds for many years, like a mountain peak, weighed heavily on his heart, making it unbearable. If not for the dark night, if not for not wanting to disturb others, Zhen Ye really wanted to vent out loudly and freely...

  The small knife trembled lightly and transformed into a beam of light, then leaped into the air and swiftly flew towards a certain direction in the imperial city, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

  That direction is where the North Mountain outside the city is located!

  Looking north at Mount Shan, every year on the night of the fifth day of the fifth month, he would go there once, it was the day his mother was taken away.

  There are many words that cannot be told to others, and all I can do is face the empty mountains and sky, as if my mother were by my side, whispering softly or silently screaming.

  Tonight, all the gloom that has been shrouding everything will be gradually dispelled. He also wants to rush to tell his mother this news as soon as possible. He wants his mother to know that her son will eventually bring their family back together and they will never be separated again.

  And Beiwang Mountain is also where Xiaodao first appeared in the world!

  Chen Ye also wanted to return to where the dagger appeared, to take a good look. After all, it was too mysterious and completely beyond his understanding. Although the dagger had brought him endless benefits, Chen Ye believed in a principle that there would never be unprovoked benefits under heaven.

  Beiwang Mountain, located twenty miles south of the Imperial City, has a name that is quite thought-provoking despite being in the south.

  A majestic peak, like a long sword, stands upright between heaven and earth, constantly emitting an endless aura of power that makes people dare not look directly at it. Now, even in the dark night, it can still be seen, with clouds and mist swirling around the summit, vaguely revealing a few rays of strange light, allowing people to catch a glimpse of the scenery within, like a fairyland.

  Looking north to the mountain top, there are many rare flowers and grasses, with a beautiful and unique scenery, attracting many young scholars and traveling poets to come and admire.

  However, no one has ever been able to climb to the most beautiful place on Beiwang Mountain. Even those so-called powerful masters in the imperial court can only look up at the peak of Beiwang Mountain and return with a sigh.

  After a long time, Beiwang Mountain gradually became a human forbidden place in the imperial capital in people's minds.

  Standing at the foot of the mountain, gazing up at the summit in the distance on a clear night, one can feel an overwhelming sense of awe-inspiring power emanating from the peak, layer upon layer, causing space to become slightly blurred, showcasing the majesty of nature in all its glory!

  At the same time, a fierce beast howled from the mountain, clearly audible even in the darkness of night. Every now and then, black shadows darted back and forth through the dense forest.

  "We're finally back at Beiwang Mountain again."

  A single word "again" made Chen Ye's heart suddenly burst out with endless anger.
