Chapter 45 My path, how could the Divine Dynasty possibly stand in my way?

Looking at the abyss of the Heavenly Dao Abyss, filled with treasures and divine treasures, Liu Chengfeng wondered what its purpose was.

As a hidden attribute of the Blood Sea Divine Treasure, the World Tree can forcibly extract spiritual veins, no matter how large they are.

What is the function of the Heavenly Abyss, a hidden attribute of the Treasure Mountain Divine Treasury?
For the time being, Liu Chengfeng couldn't figure it out and could only continue cultivating.

The fatal thing is that after the Heavenly Dao Abyss appeared, even a large amount of blood energy and precious light could not fill it.

No matter how Liu Chengfeng circulated his inner energy, or how much blood energy he adjusted or how much spiritual energy he absorbed, it was all swallowed up by the Heavenly Dao Abyss.

The Heavenly Dao Abyss is like a bottomless pit, never filled by the endless flow of blood and spiritual energy.

As a result, Liu Chengfeng was unable to gather his strength to break through the bottleneck and open the Divine Treasury of Guidance.

A similar situation occurred when the World Tree was growing.

Liu Chengfeng steeled his heart and used the World Tree to absorb the spiritual veins. However, he did not dare to absorb all the spiritual veins at once, and only took a small taste.

The spiritual vein of Qiuchi Kingdom originates from the Bayu Mountains, where the night rains of Bayu swell the Qiuchi Lake.

Its spiritual energy is as abundant as rivers and lakes.

Even a small sip yields far more spiritual energy than draining the Qiyun Sect's spiritual veins.

The World Tree absorbed a massive amount of spiritual energy from the vein, which immediately alarmed Empress Qiuchi.

What are you practicing?

She was surprised when Empress Qiuchi herself came.

"I've hit a bottleneck and want to take a big breath of spiritual energy to break through."

Liu Chengfeng didn't elaborate, but he discovered that even with so much spiritual energy absorbed by the World Tree, it still couldn't fill the Heavenly Dao Abyss, leaving him at a loss.

Empress Qiuchi stepped in to help, pouring her own blood and energy directly into Liu Chengfeng's treasure mountain treasure.

The great figures of the Great Dao Divine Treasury, with their abundant blood energy and powerful Dao, were like a vast ocean, engulfing the treasure mountain and divine treasury, making Liu Chengfeng appear very insignificant.

jaw-dropping.

The power of the Great Dao Divine Treasury is immense, but it cannot fill the Heavenly Dao Abyss. It is like a bottomless pit, never to be satisfied.

"What have you been cultivating?"

Empress Qiuchi was shocked. She didn't know what was going on. She tried her best, but she couldn't fill it.

"I'll figure it out myself, I'm sure I'll find a way."

Liu Chengfeng was not discouraged; the World Tree served as a cautionary tale.

Empress Qiuchi told Liu Chengfeng to figure it out himself, as he was more talented and had more ideas than she did.

The Heavenly Dao Abyss is incredibly mysterious; Liu Chengfeng tried many methods, but he could never fill it.

During his contemplation, Liu Chengfeng discovered that something was hidden inside the Heavenly Dao Abyss, which seemed to be a treasure.

"You need Yamaru, the Three-Refined Yamaru."

Just as I was wondering what was going on, Ye Huijian suddenly appeared out of nowhere, arms crossed, leaning against the doorway.

"Three-Refined Mountain Pills will suffice?"

Liu Chengfeng had never actually thought of this method.

"Once the Wannian Mountain Pill is fully formed, it will be complete as long as there are enough of them."

Liu Chengfeng believed Ye Huijian's words.

"Give me your thoughts."

Ye Huijian valued the hidden attributes of the Divine Treasure highly and would not miss any detail.

Liu Chengfeng passed on his insights from studying Tiandaoyuan to Ye Huijian.

"The Abyss of Heavenly Dao is not the Abyss of the Great Dao."

Upon hearing the name, Ye Huijian was surprised, as it was different from what she had expected.

What's so mysterious about it?

Unable to fathom the Heavenly Dao Abyss, Liu Chengfeng sought guidance from Ye Huijian.

"I don't know, you should think about it carefully."

"Master Aunt, shouldn't you teach me a few martial arts techniques?"

Liu Chengfeng was dissatisfied with this cheap martial arts master. He had taken her benefits but had never seen her teach him any martial arts techniques.

"If you follow my path, what new path will you create?"

Ye Huijian rolled her eyes at him; this girlish demeanor looked particularly beautiful.

This makes sense.

Liu Chengfeng had no choice but to give up. To create a new path, he had to rely on himself to integrate and refine each path one by one until he could create his own new path.

"It's not like I'm offering you nothing in return."

Ye Huijian reached out and picked up Xiao Li. After Liu Chengfeng moved into the royal household, Xiao Li disappeared without a trace.

Ye Huijian casually picked it up, and she trembled, not daring to resist.

"Although you cannot understand the mental cultivation techniques inscribed on the Fire Phoenix Furnace, you must have made copies. Give them to him when you receive the Divine Treasury."

Ye Huijian tapped Xiao Li on the head and gave the order.

The little fox trembled, not daring to refuse, and squeaked before nodding hastily.

What is the Fire Phoenix Furnace?

After Ye Huijian left, Liu Chengfeng looked at Xiao Li with curiosity.

The little fox didn't say a word, held its head high, and ran off with tiny, slender steps, looking rather arrogant.

"Looking down on people with the eyes of a dog, no, looking down on people with the eyes of a fox."

Liu Chengfeng wanted to kick the little fox away, but it had already run out of the palace.

When Empress Qiuchi learned that Liu Chengfeng needed the three-refined mountain pills, she immediately ordered that the last remaining mountain pills be taken from the national treasury.

There are no alchemists of the third level in Qiuchi Kingdom. The most powerful alchemist is Cheng Nan, a mid-level alchemist of the second level.

These three Three-Refined Mountain Pills in the national treasury were also purchased from an ancient country and were made from medicinal herbs that were 50,000 years old.

Each one was worth a million, and all three were given to Liu Chengfeng.

The Three-Refined Mountain Pill is made from medicinal herbs that are 10,000 to 100,000 years old. It is extremely precious and its medicinal effect is more than ten times that of the Two-Refined Pill.

After the Three Refined Mountain Pills were used to shape his body, he took them and found the Treasure Mountain Divine Treasury to be crystal clear.

Just as Ye Huijian said, after taking three Three Refined Mountain Pills, Tiandaoyuan's absorption of spiritual energy and blood energy was not as strong.

Like a breached dam, part of it has been blocked.

"We don't have enough mountain balls."

Liu Chengfeng had a headache. The Three-Refined Mountain Pill was extremely precious, and even with the strong support of Empress Qiuchi and her willingness to provide spirit stones, he couldn't buy it in a short time.

While Liu Chengfeng was troubled by the matter of Shanwan, the might of the Great Dao surged forth, overwhelming the royal family like a tide.

"Nangong Zheng pays his respects to His Majesty Qiuchi."

Before the person even arrived, the might of the Great Dao pressed down on them, and the sound of the Great Dao resounded in their ears like thunder.

Nangong is coming.

Liu Chengfeng felt a chill run down his spine; he wasn't sure what Nangong Zheng's stance was either.

The presence of a great figure from the Great Dao Divine Treasury is not to be underestimated, especially given Nangong Zheng's noble status.

"You shall receive Nangong Zheng."

Empress Qiuchi gave Liu Chengfeng instructions.

"Are you kidding me? Me, meeting with him? And you?"

Liu Chengfeng was startled. If Nangong Zheng was conspiring with Wu Yuanqing, he could take his head at any time.

"He's not here to take your head, he's here for the crow's nest tree."

Empress Qiuchi discerned Liu Chengfeng's thoughts.

"That's because you're the one who wants to see him, not because he wants to see me."

Empress Qiuchi stared at him coldly, her expression as cold as ice. "Fine, fine, fine. Who told me I'm a prince? I'll go see him, okay, my dear wife?"

Liu Chengfeng felt a chill run down his spine; he was beholden to those who fed him and accepted his gifts.

"Nangong Zheng wanted to borrow the Wuchao Tree for five hundred years to meditate and attain enlightenment."

Empress Qiuchi informed Nangong Zheng of her purpose.

"The crow's nest tree can't be moved. Does he want to seize the ancestral hall?"

"Only borrow the crow's nest tree."

"What do you think? To lend or not to lend?"

"What do you say?"

Empress Qiuchi's eyes flashed with a fierce light, her gaze sharp as knives, as if she wanted to slice off Liu Chengfeng's head.

"Damn it, you're sending me to my death. If I don't lend it to you, Nangong Zheng will take my head off."

Liu Chengfeng knew that Empress Qiuchi was using him as a shield.

"That depends on your ability. If you are capable, you can negotiate and turn enemies into friends. Ultimately, however, you still need the royal family's approval to open an ancestral hall."

"What if we wipe out the royal family?"

Liu Chengfeng had a headache; he wanted to block Nangong Zheng.

"Can you escape?"

Empress Qiuchi coldly stared at Liu Chengfeng, her imperial power overwhelming, her empressly demeanor lofty and superior.

That little vixen, I'll get her into bed sooner or later and teach her a lesson.

Liu Chengfeng was so angry he was itching to vent his anger; this was not the time to be sulking.

"Then we can't overturn the table; we need to calm Nangong Zheng down first."

Faced with this thorny problem, Liu Chengfeng devised his own strategy on how to resolve the predicament.

"You are a prince, and you are fully in charge."

Empress Qiuchi ignored Liu Chengfeng and went into seclusion.

"You still can't cure the poison."

Liu Chengfeng called out.

These days, Empress Qiuchi has been practicing her inner cultivation techniques to control the fire and detoxify herself from the poison, but it's still not working.

Empress Qiuchi froze, then disappeared into it.

Since Nangong Zheng was present, Liu Chengfeng had no choice but to bite the bullet and receive him.

Empress Qiuchi entrusted him with full authority, and he was in charge of the entire palace.

Nangong Zheng was surprised to see that it was Liu Chengfeng who received him.

"I want to see His Majesty Qiuchi."

Nangong Zheng stood high above, his imposing presence and the overwhelming power of the Great Dao pressing down on Liu Chengfeng like a mountain.

Liu Chengfeng took a deep breath, circulated his inner energy, and straightened his back.

"Her Majesty the Empress is in seclusion. As a prince, Senior Nangong can consult with me on any matters."

Liu Chengfeng remained calm and fearless.

Nangong Zheng's eyes narrowed, a cold light flashed, and the power of the Great Dao was like a giant wave, seemingly about to knock Liu Chengfeng away.

Liu Chengfeng sat up straight, bracing himself against Nangong Zheng's terrifying aura. Huge waves roared in his ears, and the wind was as sharp as a knife, stinging his face.

"Senior, I have treated you with the utmost courtesy. Is this your way of being a guest? Bullying the weak with the strong."

Liu Chengfeng remained neither humble nor arrogant, his gaze fearless as he met Nangong Zheng's intimidating stare.

Nangong Zheng stared at Liu Chengfeng for a while before withdrawing the power of the Great Dao.

"Very good, no wonder you dared to kill Zhao Tian's father, you have guts."

Liu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief. The great figures of the Great Dao Divine Treasury, capable of collapsing mountains and severing rivers, were indeed terrifying.

"I've borrowed the crow's nest tree from the ancestral hall for five hundred years, can you really decide that?"

"Senior Nangong, Qiuchi Kingdom lent you the Crow's Nest Tree for five hundred years. What benefits did the Nangong family offer in return?"

Liu Chengfeng did not refuse, which surprised Nangong Zheng.

"I'll just watch!"

Nangong Zheng said something completely cryptic.

"Senior, things are not that simple. Is this your way of life?"

Liu Chengfeng understood what he meant; Ye Ziyang and Wu Yuanqing must have invited Nangong Zheng to join forces.

Nangong Zheng was an upright man and did not hide anything.

"When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact? If we destroy the Qiuchi Kingdom today, can't we destroy the Nangong family tomorrow? The lesson of the Feifeng Kingdom is not far off."

Liu Chengfeng also spoke frankly and directly, hitting the nail on the head.

Nangong Zheng felt a chill run down his spine; these words made him think more highly of Liu Chengfeng.

"Senior is a gentleman, upright and honorable. I believe that senior would not take advantage of someone in distress. Moreover, senior may not be able to enjoy the Crow's Nest Tree all to himself."

“Interesting. You’re not a prince after all.”

Nangong Zheng acknowledged Liu Chengfeng's identity; he had just thought Liu Chengfeng was merely a fake prince being used as a shield.

"Lend me five hundred years, and the descendants of the Su family can stay in the Nangong family for five hundred years."

Nangong Zheng's words were clear enough: if the royal family were destroyed, the descendants of the Su family could escape and hide in the Nangong family for five hundred years.

"Senior is so confident. Can the Nangong family last for five hundred years?"

Liu Chengfeng's words were also incisive.

"The Ascending Dragon Holy Sect has the Ancient Court and the Royal Court. Does the Nangong family not have any backers? When you're out in the world, who doesn't have a few backers?"

Nangong Zheng exuded an imposing aura, his cold gaze commanding.

Nangong Zheng spoke with confidence. A top-grade alchemist with three levels of refinement is popular everywhere. Even ancient kingdoms would buy Blood Medicine Mountain Pills from him, Nangong Zheng.

"As for you, Zhao Tian wants to sacrifice you alive. With the royal court at your service, who can protect you? Do you think you can escape death?"

"I'm escaping death?"

Liu Chengfeng laughed and shook his head.

"Senior, I'm not just escaping death. I will kill Zhao Tian!"

As he spoke, Liu Chengfeng's eyes flashed with a cold light, and a murderous aura arose.

Nangong Zheng knew that Liu Chengfeng was serious.

"The strength of the Divine Dynasty is beyond your imagination."

"My path is not something that the Divine Dynasty can stop."

Liu Chengfeng was full of heroic spirit and his momentum was unstoppable.

“What a fine line, ‘My path is not to be stopped by the Divine Dynasty.’ His courage is commendable. I didn’t have such boldness when I was young.”

Nangong Zheng burst into laughter, reminiscing about the past and his youth.

"The Crow's Nest Tree, I will fight for it."

Nangong Zheng's attitude was very firm.

"To open an ancestral hall, the royal family's consent is required."

Liu Chengfeng did not back down.

"What if the royal family is destroyed?"

"Senior Nangong, when my Empress unleashes her divine skill, who will die first?"

Liu Chengfeng laughed loudly, while Nangong Zheng's eyes turned cold.
