Before Xin Zhenyong left, he actually carefully checked Zhu Wuyan again. Only after he confirmed that Zhu Wuyan’s strength was indeed only at the perfected Golden Bone Refinement and that there was nothing to hide did he leave with a cold expression.
What Chen Diandou taught Zhu Wuyang was knowledge of governing the country, strategy, geography, history, and other aspects of literature. On the other hand, Xin Zhenyong taught Zhu Wuyang military strategy, martial arts, secret arts, killing, and other aspects of military strategy.
Although Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu was extremely jealous of the talented, he would not take away the education and resources that the princes and princesses should have. Sometimes, he would even allow the princes and princesses to receive excessive treatment.
However, it was unknown whether this was done to confuse the princes and princesses and expose some of the more ambitious princes and princesses.
However, to be honest, those who were sent to teach the important princes and princesses were all the trusted aides of Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu, and they had mastered extremely powerful detection techniques. For example, the Minister of Rites, Chen Diandou, and the Minister of War, Xin Zhenyong. Both of them were great experts in the Xiantian realm, and they had even mastered top-notch secret detection techniques.
Even in the face of the ” cowardly and incompetent ” Crown Prince, Chen Diandou and still probed repeatedly until they confirmed Zhu Wuan’s strength. Only then did they relax.
If one were to say that there were no orders from Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu,
Zhu Wuyang would not believe it even if he used his toes to think. However, Mad Emperor Zhu Zhenwu was really extremely cautious. He was also very harsh to the many princes and princesses. If there was anything unusual, they would probably be suppressed or even killed.
Only after confirming that Xin Zhenyong, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, had left did Zhu Wuyang let out a long sigh of relief and began to absorb the strange power that swarmed over.
Under the effect of these strange powers, the Earth Spirit Blood in Zhu Wuyang’s body increased at an extremely fast speed, becoming stronger and purer.
Zhu Wuyan had already circulated the Limitless Earth Technique to the extreme. He absorbed the strange power that was surging over according to a specific method and technique, not letting any of it go to waste.
When the Earth Spirit Blood was raised to a certain limit, Zhu Wuwan could clearly feel a mysterious power between heaven and earth being drawn over by the Earth Spirit Blood and fused into his meridians.
At this moment, a part of the breakthrough point suddenly turned into another special power, combining with the mysterious power drawn from the world. At the same time, it also absorbed a part of the characteristics of the earth’s spirit blood, forming a new power.
This kind of power was vigorous and heavy. It could effectively increase Zhu Wuwan’s defense and strength. It also had the effect of hiding his strength. It could be said to be a perfect fit for Zhu Wuwan’s current physical condition.
If nothing unexpected happened, this power should be it.
Inner Qi!
Earth Inner Qi!
It was the peak type of Inner Qi in the martial arts world. It could greatly enhance a martial artist’s defense, improve the martial artist’s overall strength, and consolidate the martial artist’s cultivation foundation. It also had the effect of hiding one’s strength.
Under normal circumstances, a type of Inner Qi would only have one effect. An Inner Qi with two effects was already considered top-notch, let alone an Inner Qi with four effects.
As a peerless Foundation Building martial art, the Limitless Earth Technique would only have two effects when it condensed the Earth Internal Qi. If one was lucky, it could transform into three effects. However, Zhu Wuwan had actually broken the limit of the Limitless Earth Technique and allowed her condensed Earth Internal Qi to have four rather practical effects.
Feeling the faint yellow Earthly Inner Qi in his body, a bitter look flashed across Zhu Wuwan’s face. Although condensing an Inner Qi seed was a great joy, it was not a good thing for someone in Zhu Wuwan’s position to improve his strength so quickly.
“Congratulations to the host for breaking through to the early-stage Inner Qi Seed for the first time in your life. You have obtained 10000 breakthrough points…”
After breaking through to a new realm and condensing the Earth Inner Qi, it actually brought Zhu Wuwan a total of 10,000 breakthrough points.
The breakthrough points of the previous wave had yet to be digested, and the breakthrough points of the next wave had come again. It was really uncomfortable.
Zhu Wuwan laughed bitterly. She could only passively endure it and continue to circulate the Limitless Earth Technique to continuously increase her strength.
Wisps of Earth Inner Qi appeared in his meridians and gradually became more and more. Zhu Wuwan’s strength was also constantly increasing.
The Internal Qi of the earth shuttled through the meridians and intertwined with the spiritual blood. However, this was not a long-term solution. Internal Qi was a terrifying power that was above the spiritual blood. It was naturally corrosive and destructive. It could not coexist with the spiritual blood for a long time, let alone store it in the meridians for a long time.
When the Internal Qi had grown to a certain extent, the martial artists would use the Internal Qi to attack the blocked lower Dantian and at the same time, temper the lower Dantian into the Spirit Dantian. Just like the Internal Qi, the lower Dantian would be able to store the Internal Qi without any hidden dangers.
This was the Earth Pass Realm!
The so-called Earth Pass Realm was to break through the Earth Pass that led to the path of cultivation and open up the lower Dantian. From there, one could truly grasp the power of Inner Qi and possess extraordinary strength.
The Earth Pass corresponded to the Heaven Pass, and it was relatively easy to break through. The Heaven Pass was different. It was said that it was harder than ascending to the heavens, so it was called the Heaven Pass.
The Heaven and Earth Gates corresponded to the two barriers on a warrior’s cultivation path. Only by breaking through these two barriers could a warrior truly leap over the dragon gate and become a divine dragon of the Nine
Heavens.
However, the Heaven Pass was still too far away for the current Zhu Wuyan. He had not even heard of the Heaven Pass. What Zhu Wuyan needed to do now was to continuously accumulate the Inner Qi of the earth and break through the Earth Pass to enter the final stage of the Body Tempering Realm.
By the time he had absorbed all the strange power transformed from the breakthrough points, Zhu Wuwan’s strength had completely stabilized at the initial stage of the Internal Qi Seed. With Zhu Wuwan’s current strength, let alone in the imperial palace of the Nine Zhao Nation, even in the Jianghu outside, he could definitely be said to be invincible among his peers.
The proud sons of heaven in the so-called martial arts holy land of the Nine
Zhao Nation found it very difficult to condense Inner Qi seeds when they were Zhu Wuwan’s age. Basically, only when they reached the age of twenty could those proud sons of heaven in the martial arts holy land condense Inner Qi seeds.
Not to mention that Zhu Wuyan’s cultivation foundation was extremely strong. Although she was only at the initial stage of Inner Qi Seed, Zhu Wuyan’s comprehensive strength was not inferior to ordinary martial artists in the Earth Pass Realm.
With such strength, he was practically an invincible existence among martial artists of the same rank in the entire Nine Zhao Nation.
If Zhu Wuwan were to enter the martial world at this moment, she would definitely be able to enter some martial arts rankings similar to the Hidden Dragon Rankings, and it would be the kind that ranked in the top few..
