Chapter 542: Chapter 510: At this moment, I absolutely must not laugh_2
In both public and private matters, the Sun and Moon Bright Sect cannot just arrive and stand shoulder to shoulder with them...
This is also to increase the disciples’ sense of reverence.
In just a moment, he thought through the intricacies involved.
He said, "I am currently trying a new cultivation technique. If it succeeds, martial arts might no longer be the only pathway for humans to strengthen themselves, and grandmasters will no longer be the high and mighty ones. This method is about to succeed, and I will initially spread it among my own followers. If they can withstand the test, they can be the second batch of testers!"
"A new cultivation technique?"
"Yes, cultivation!"
Xu Lingjun smiled at Ji Roufeng, but didn’t make a move.
Ji Roufeng was taken aback, feeling as if a hand gently caressed her face, lifting a strand of her smooth hair.
She exclaimed, "This... this is..."
"Spiritual sense, a very powerful auxiliary ability."
Xu Lingjun smiled and said, "To be honest, half a month ago, I fought and killed four grandmasters alone. This was because I cultivated a new technique."
Ji Roufeng exclaimed, "Four... four grandmasters?"
Li Lei called out emotionally, "Dad..."
"Rest assured, when the time comes, you certainly won’t be left out."
Xu Lingjun said, "But your strength is probably insufficient for cultivating this technique. You might need to reach the Profound Realm to be qualified, Leizi; you’ve let Dad down a bit."
Even if he has the Talent Source, he cannot create a pure cultivation technique.
It’s better to advance into the path through martial arts.
In some ways, this might be stronger than a pure cultivation technique.
Hence the foundational requirements are also particularly high.
The minimum starting point is the Profound Realm...
Upon hearing this, Li Lei lowered his head in shame.
Huichuan Peak!
He had once been smug about his strength, but now realizes he doesn’t even qualify to start cultivating the technique.
He earnestly said, "I will work hard."
"Actually, when your strength reaches the Huichuan Realm, what’s needed is intense battle. Leizi, I suggest you also go to the Polar Star Battlefield to train, experiencing life and death to progress. Flowers grown in a greenhouse can’t withstand wind and snow."
"I understand!"
Xu Lingjun looked at Ji Roufeng and smiled, "I can teach you first, then, but you need to keep it secret for the time being... In any case, the Sun and Moon Bright Sect will surely be ahead of the public, as long as they are willing to join me."
Ji Roufeng nodded seriously, "I understand!"
She softly added, "And besides, I don’t care much about that anymore. I don’t have the high ambitions like Sister Yaya and them; as long as I can be by your side, martial arts is important to me, but not the most important."
Xu Lingjun nodded.
He understood that Ji Roufeng had received a rather traditional education since childhood.
Although she discarded the dross.
The trait of being content as a supporting role, seeing her husband as the sky, still got passed down to her.
This may not be a good habit...
But if Xu Lingjun is that man, hmm... how wonderful.
Then, Xu Lingjun invited Li Lei to stay in the Secret Realm.
He then hinted to him, if he has the ability, he could trick a demon beast to leave from here.
Li Lei immediately brightened up and went off excitedly to choose his target.
Though the Secret Realm was vast, the number of demon beasts was even greater.
There’s naturally no need to vie for them...
Though the success rate wasn’t encouraging, he was determined to try.
Meanwhile, Xu Lingjun took Ji Roufeng’s hand to find a secluded, quiet corner to have a heartfelt talk about the times they were apart.
Inside the Secret Realm.
A scene of peace.
Yet who could predict that outside, due to the Baoxue Empire’s heavy defeat, the entire Blue Star fell into chaos.
"Is that so? The Baoxue Empire has deployed troops on the border and set up numerous Star level weapons?"
Great Xia Empire.
Imperial Capital.
Han Xu Yang listened to the news brought back by his secret agents. In front of him, many important figures among the civil and military officials had gathered, all with grave expressions on their faces.
Han Qingxue seriously said, "Previously, your son received a communication from Baoxue Empire, saying it was a military parade. But I believe, deploying troops at the border, there might be a possibility of demonstrating against us; it seems Baoxue Empire also felt threatened during this time."
She only thought that the people of Baoxue Empire were showing their fangs because they felt threatened after Great Xia Empire expanded the Polar Star Battlefield.
She suggested, "I propose that we also conduct a military parade to show them how trivial we see their so-called threat."
"Hmm, possible, but not perfect."
Han Xu Yang sneered, "Send troops, embark on a campaign, order them to retreat, and if they don’t, we shall go to war!"
"What?!"
The moment Han Xu Yang said this.
Everyone was stunned.
It’s known that while the three nations have had their frictions, external threats prevented them from easily starting a war. For over a hundred years, they have never waged war.
Could it be that Your Majesty wants to conquer Blue Star just after scoring some achievements outside?
"Your Majesty..."
Zhu Zhengdao stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, this move is inadvisable..."
"Look at what I hold in my hand."
Zhu Zhengdao paused at his words, nodded, and said, "Understood!"
He then intended to step forward.
Han Xu Yang immediately became speechless, saying, "I meant all of you, my dear ministers, not just you, Zhu Qing..."
Zhu Zhengdao’s face turned beet red at this.
At that moment, the officials stepped forward and looked at the various weapon designs in Han Xu Yang’s hand.
