Chapter Eleven: The Gate of Mysterious Breath

  "Tonight, you really made a big show of yourself."

  In the study, Old Man Chen was beaming with joy. Behind his smile, however, was a mix of relief and heartache.

  Chen Ye went to Bei Wang Shan again at dawn, Chen Lao knew the real reason but didn't say it out loud. Although Chen Ye had already let go of everything in his heart, what he said to Zhang Sun Fei made Chen Lao understand that Chen Ye was able to face his past now.

  It's a good thing to think about, to remember, but being overly obsessed with the past can drive someone crazy. However, facing it not only requires courage, but also the ability to endure the immense pain that comes with it.

  The old man knew so quickly, and Chen Ye didn't think it was strange at all. He believed that by this time, in the imperial city of the capital, everyone who was paying attention to the Chen family would know, including even the palace deep inside, that high and mighty Jiuwu Zun!

  Since ancient times, Chen Ye had never thought of hiding himself deeply. If it weren't for the appearance of his elder brother Chen Xuan today, he would have to let everyone in the Imperial City know that the young man who was once only one step away from the altar of the gods has returned!

  In this world, imperial power is indeed supreme, but the way of martial arts is an eternal and ageless existence. The pinnacle of martial arts can never be compared to the position of imperial power; the two are as different as clouds and mud!

  Because of Chen Ye's extremely talented and demonic cultivation back then, even Old Man Chen suspected that he might be a member of the imperial family who had directed the scene at Beiwang Mountain. Over the years, he has been investigating but to no avail.

  At this moment, Chen Ye knew that even though he didn't have the innate talent, if he cultivated his dragon body to its peak, he wouldn't be much weaker than a master of the mysterious energy. At that time, the imperial family would no longer dare to target the Chen family!

  Of course, if Chen Ye did this, it would likely cause great panic in the imperial family, and then extend to some imaginable troubles. But Chen Ye had no better way, only by doing so could he slow down the actions of the imperial family, and then give the Chen family, and Chen Ye himself, enough time to respond.

  "Grandfather!" Chen Ye asked: "Is big brother coming back this time to visit relatives or...?"

  "Returning to Beijing to report for duty!"

  So it was, Chen Ye nodded slightly, his eyes cold and icy. The imperial family's hands and feet were not only reaching for the powerful people of the Chen family, but also included these young descendants of the Chen family who were still developing, and did not let them off.

  He glanced at Chen Ye and smiled faintly: "Ye Er, focus on your cultivation, don't bother with other things."

  Listening to the old man's words, looking at the old man, Chen Ye slightly paused, and between him and his grandfather, it seemed like only a few days had passed since they last saw each other. But now, his grandfather seemed to have changed in some way, as if he had gained something more than before...

  "It's confidence!"

  Grandfather Chen Zhong's eyes couldn't help but tremble, a veteran general who had led countless soldiers into battle for many years, never once retreating in the face of any enemy.

  This person who has been regarded as a hero in the hearts of countless people, actually at this time, had an additional kind of fame-seeking mentality, it's too strange.

  ．．．．

  Back in his room, Chen Ye cast aside all distractions and entered a state of Xuan Qi cultivation.

  Over the years, although his Xuan Qi cultivation has been unable to make progress, it has also become a habit for him. Moreover, physical cultivation also requires Xuan Qi to protect the heart meridian, so even if he can't move forward on the path of Xuan Qi, Chen Ye is still cultivating with relish.

  Because the Jiaolong body was successfully cultivated, the physical body underwent a relatively large change. The speed of gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth increased greatly, and the speed of refining the spiritual energy by the Xuanqi Gongfa also became much faster than before.

  Not long after, a big cycle later, a refined and pure Xuan Qi that had been tempered, was rushing towards the Dan Tian along a specific trajectory, as fast as lightning.

  What happened next, didn't need to worry about it anymore. After the mysterious energy entered the dantian, it would naturally dissipate like air, and Zhenye had already gotten used to it, so he didn't take it seriously.

  But this time...

  When the pure and refined vital energy, like a tidal wave, rushes into the elixir field, in an instant, the originally still and calm vital energy within one's own elixir field suddenly becomes like a violent storm, stirring up a fierce and turbulent surge.

  At that moment, the night was suddenly stunned. At first, he was seriously injured by someone, and his foundation was destroyed, which means that his dantian was injured, making it impossible for the original mysterious energy in his dantian to absorb the mysterious energy obtained through cultivation, causing the mysterious energy to enter the dantian and flow away in vain, only a small part of it is used to strengthen the flesh and bones.

  Now, the genuine Qi in the lower abdomen is like a mad dragon, as if a starving dragon that has been hungry for countless years, swallowing all the newly entered Qi into it. Immediately, the Qi which had not grown stronger for many years visibly grew much stronger!

  This is the complete cultivation!

  Even in cultivation, Chen Ye couldn't help but be shocked for a moment, almost causing him to go crazy.

  Your foundation wasn't destroyed, was it? Why can you absorb pure Xuan Qi now?

  Chen Ye was somewhat skeptical, wondering if he had misperceived earlier. He hastily continued his cultivation and soon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was refined into a pure and simple aura, which quickly entered his dantian.

  Pure and refined spiritual energy poured in, his own spiritual energy went wild once again... Time and time again, even Chen Ye himself didn't know how long this cultivation lasted, but he could finally confirm that he could cultivate again!

  After waiting for four years... no, two lifetimes, he will finally have a different tomorrow.

  Physical cultivation can also reach the pinnacle of this world's martial artists, but only those who have cultivated it know that this path is even more difficult to walk.

  Even now, on the path of physical cultivation, he has taken the most crucial step, yet he also yearns to be able to tread the path of Xuan Qi cultivation like a normal person.

  As the eternal theme of the world, the two words "Xuan Qi" are not just a slogan. If it were not for the sake of necessity, Chen Ye would not retreat and seek secondary options, turning to cultivate the way of physical body!

  "Haha!"

  Waking up from meditation, he didn't care whether it was late at night or not. Chen Ye let out a loud laugh, and in that one laugh, he couldn't describe the emotions he felt at this moment, but only with this laughter could he express the wild joy and past loneliness and sorrow in his heart!

  In the midst of loud laughter, Chen Ye's mind stirred, and a small knife quickly appeared from his palm, shining with white light, as if it were a spirit. Chen Ye knew that in this life, no matter whether he was reborn or had successfully cultivated the Dragon Body so quickly, or could now re-tread the path of the Mystic Qi, it was all thanks to its efforts!

  "Xiao Dao, thank you!"

  Chen Ye was smiling, and the light on the blade was also gently trembling, as if echoing Chen Ye's current mood.

  Finally, the Gate of Mysterious Energy was reopened for him. In the following days, Chen Ye practiced day and night as if he wanted to make up for all the wasted years in a short period of time!

  Time passes day by day, feeling the change in myself day by day. On Chen Ye's face, a look of infatuation and indulgence involuntarily floats up, and the strengthened feeling is indeed intoxicating!

  But as his cultivation gradually stabilized and improved, when he first looked up at the mountain waist, seeing the ancient emperor's temple appear, the small knife absorbed the fluctuations transmitted from the center of the great hall, and that sudden appearance in his mind A point of something, unknowingly, Chen Ye gained a little more insight!

  Just this faint understanding still can't make Chen Ye clearly understand what kind of existence the ancient emperor's temple is.

  "Isn't it that I must fully understand myself before I can know?"

  He seemed to understand something, and then slowly stretched his waist, which had been going on for several days. With his current cultivation level, he was unable to cultivate for a long time. Although he wanted to quickly improve his strength, he also knew that haste makes waste!

  "Going out for a walk, worldly experiences, is actually a kind of cultivation......" Chen Ye laughed and got out of bed, heading towards the outside of the house.
