Chapter 630: Chapter 626: Taking the Initiative

Could there be other hidden circumstances?

The most likely reason is related to his biological mother, Consort Yun.

The Fourth Prince once said that Consort Yun’s death was her own doing.

On hearing this, the original owner was so enraged that he almost killed him.

In the original owner’s mind, Consort Yun was a perfect person, the best mother in the world, and absolutely would not allow anyone to defame her.

But in his view, there is no perfect person in the world, and being too perfect is just an illusion.

Consort Hui asked, ”Are you still at the Third Transition?”

”I can reach the Fifth Transition in ten days.”

”Hmm—?”

”I am a genius in cultivation,” Chu Zhiyuan smiled proudly, ”once I set my mind to practice, I advance by leaps and bounds, building on accumulated strength.”

Consort Hui chuckled, shaking her head, ”Alright, you’re a genius, but even moving from the Third Transition to the Fifth Transition, no genius could achieve it that quickly, could they?”

”The Third Transition is almost to the Fourth, with one practice it can break through, and from the Fourth to the Fifth, ten days is enough.”

”That’s quite a boast,” Consort Hui remarked, ”breaking through one transition in just ten days!”

Each realm has nine transitions, divided into the first three, middle three, and last three transitions, the first three are easy, the middle three are difficult, and the last three are the hardest.

Even in the first realm, it’s unheard of to break through a transition in just ten days.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”I also just found out that I am such a genius, possibly related to this time’s injury.”

Consort Hui pondered, then nodded, ”After all, you have died once, and used the Great Brightness Pill, some strange changes are not surprising.”

”Big brother, you’re about to catch up with me,” Chu Zhen giggled.

Chu Zhiyuan asked, ”Zhen’er, are you at the Sixth Transition now?”

”Hehe, just reached the Seventh Transition,” Chu Zhen said smugly, ”I just broke through yesterday.”

”I also reached the Seventh Transition,” Chu Qiao smiled.

Chu Zhiyuan praised, ”My two sisters are martial arts geniuses. And what about that rascal?”

Chu Zhen said, ”Second Brother, he’s already perfected the Ninth Transition.”

Chu Qiao wrinkled her delicate nose, snorted, ”He just emerged from seclusion yesterday.”

She was dissatisfied with Second Brother’s indifference toward Big Brother.

No matter how Big Brother behaved, he was always good to the three siblings, a good big brother.

But he always had a tiff with Big Brother.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”The Ninth Transition... I’ll see if he can still remain proud when I catch up to him.”

The Tenth Prince before the original owner was always in a lofty manner.

Because of his astonishing talent.

His astonishing talent made him proud and extremely dissatisfied with the original owner, very estranged.

When the original owner was young, he often played with him, always protecting him when mixing with the princes.

The older they grew, the deeper the estrangement, the two brothers almost became strangers.

”Yes, catch up to him!” the two girls agreed.

...

Chu Zhiyuan had a meal with them, and they left reluctantly.

The two girls still had evening lessons, so they couldn’t accompany him to tour the Imperial City.

After eating, Chu Zhiyuan left the Prince Mansion, ready to go for a walk, when he noticed something unusual.

Two young men and two middle-aged men followed him, all of them Imperial Guards.

Chu Zhiyuan looked towards You Lan.

You Lan smiled gently, ”Your Highness, the guards of our mansion are complete.”

”Those four?”

Chu Zhiyuan scrutinized the two young men, whom he had seen guarding him inside the Great Bright Peak.

His half-smiling gaze turned from them to the two middle-aged men.

Both middle-aged men were all smiles, one fat, one thin, appearing very jovial.

”Greetings, Your Highness,” they smiled and cupped their fists in salute.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand, ”Have you offended Wei Boyuan?”

”Heh heh...” the thin tall one laughed, ”Your Highness, this is a good opportunity we fought for ourselves.”

”Good opportunity? Haha!” Chu Zhiyuan laughed, ”Trying to turn black into white, you’ve got thick skin, shouldn’t be doing so poorly after all.”

The thin tall one said awkwardly, ”For us brothers, such good opportunities are indeed rare, hard to come by.”

Chu Zhiyuan understood; these two likely made mistakes, and good assignments wouldn’t fall to them.

While a hardship for others, it was a good opportunity for them.

”Alright, in my mansion, there aren’t so many intrigues, just do your duty well.”

Chu Zhiyuan stepped forward, took a stroll in the city, then found a tavern to drink wine and watch performances.

When night fell, he returned to the mansion with satisfaction and sat on the couch to meditate internally.

To outsiders, it seemed he rarely practiced the Great Brightness Fist Technique.

But in fact, he constantly honed the Great Brightness Fist within the Prince Qing Mansion.

Practicing the Great Brightness Fist in the Prince Qing Mansion reduced its power to about a tenth.

Even so, it remained a remarkably powerful fist technique.

During meditation, he discovered that himself, seated cross-legged in the void of his mind, had changed.

The halo behind his head grew ever brighter.

This was the increase of Divine Skills.

His news of annihilating the Evil Sect worldwide finally spread.

The three dynasties had been suppressing this news; despite many in Yujing, Divine Capital, and Tianjing knowing, many more were unaware.

In this era, information spread incredibly slowly.

City news spreading to small towns might take half a year, even a year or two.

As more people learned about it, more were thankful to him, naturally enhancing his Divine Skills.

As Divine Skills increased, the connection between avatar and self, avatar and avatar grew tighter.

He felt he could create one more avatar.

The only pity was that avatars could not create avatars.

Only the original body could create them.

Xiao Ruoling’s role thus became crucial.

——

The setting sun slanted over the Great Bright Peak.

The pure and icy snow peak was stained red, as if draped in colorful garments.

The Great Bright Peak was a stunning sight.

At Jingsi Cliff, Chu Zhiyuan sat cross-legged on the warm jade cushion, motionless, with a faint whirlpool spinning overhead.

Two middle-aged men stood solemnly not far behind him, like two statues, staring straight at the whirlpool.

They were the new guards responsible for watching over him, replacing the two who had entered the Prince Mansion.

Even after watching for ten days, they remained in awe, constantly suspecting it was an illusion.

Especially as the whirlpool grew larger, spinning faster.

Chu Zhiyuan’s speed of extracting Spiritual Energy increased rapidly, he judged it was due to the enhancement of spiritual power.

The Great Brightness Visualization Method possessed the marvelous ability to strengthen divine power.

Each time he was exhausted to the limit, it was a form of maximal extraction and training of spiritual power.

After ten days, his spiritual power had increased somewhat.

More importantly, it came from the enhancement of Divine Skills, which also strengthened the soul.

The latter was the key.

His cultivation speed improved again.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly opened his eyes, turned to see a group of people approaching from afar.

Leading them was the Twelfth Prince.

The Fourth and Sixth Princes were by his side, the rest a dozen princes, all looking as if they were watching a show.

Chu Zhiyuan sat firmly in place, watched the Twelfth Prince approach.

His gaze swept over him, then over the Fourth Prince and Sixth Prince, and moved among the faces of other princes.

Among these onlooking princes, the Tenth Prince was absent.

Except for the Eldest Prince, Second Prince, and Third Prince who had ascended to the Transformation Realm, the other princes were present.

If not for the narrowness and limitations of Jingsi Cliff, it would be a grand event.

He knew why the Twelfth Prince approached him rather than finding another venue to spar.

It was to humiliate him, let everyone see his embarrassment.

To the original owner, this was indeed an effective move.

The Twelfth Prince’s simplicity, this tactic was evidently from the Sixth Prince.

”Brother Nine, it’s time, isn’t it?” The Twelfth Prince said triumphantly, ”You haven’t forgotten, have you?”

Chu Zhiyuan sat firmly, replied calmly, ”Wasn’t it tomorrow?”

The Twelfth Prince chuckled, ”Brother Nine, drag it to tomorrow if you like, I won’t mind waiting a day.”

He chuckled again, ”Do you want me to give Brother Nine another ten days?”

Chu Zhiyuan snorted, ”Twelfth Brother, since that’s the case, take my punch.”
