Ten years of dormancy: Starting as a martial arts master at the pinnacle

Li Changqing understood.

King Li Yuanhao of Qin did not have high hopes that the current Emperor of the Great Zhou would be able to successfully break through to the Supreme Realm.

Even so, Li Changqing was still very surprised.

"His Majesty's strength has already reached the half-step Supreme level?"

The only one who has a chance of breaking through to the Supreme level is the Half-Step Supreme.

A powerhouse at the half-step supreme realm stands at the very top of the pyramid in the entire world.

An emperor spends most of his time dealing with state affairs, and when he has free time, he also wants to pamper his three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines.

Where would he find the time to improve his martial arts skills?

"Of course not!"

Li Yuanhao shook his head decisively.

Do you really think that being a half-step supreme being is as easy as cabbage, something that anyone can break through to?

"But the royal family of our Great Zhou possesses its own secret methods. Those who ascend the throne can receive the royal family's unique martial arts inheritance. Successfully receiving the martial arts inheritance makes one comparable to a half-step supreme being."

Of course, things are not that easy.

Ascending the throne requires passing tests, and even after passing the tests, several conditions must be met.

Only when all these conditions are met can one become the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and a powerful figure who can be counted among the strongest in the entire world.

Half-step to the Supreme Realm.

In a special environment, it was used in conjunction with the national treasure of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou might even challenge the Supreme Martial Arts Master.

In such a world of advanced martial arts.

If a family wants to establish an empire, it must possess supreme power, or power comparable to supreme power.

Otherwise, it simply wouldn't stand up.

At most, you can establish a small kingdom, or simply occupy a city and become its lord.

This is the kind of person who reaches the half-step supreme level only after receiving the martial arts inheritance.

In Li Yuanhao's mind, they weren't even close to being true half-step supreme beings. They weren't even comparable to those sword immortals in the Great Freedom Realm...

With such cultivation level, that old man still wants to break through to the Supreme Realm? Isn't that just wishful thinking?

But there was no other way.

There are even more martial arts fanatics in this world than lecherous men.

The higher one's cultivation level, the more one desires to advance further.

It's like he's gone mad.

Even if he is only a half-step supreme being, given his status as the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

This emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty has now ruled the world for thirty years...

For more than 30 years, he has been a man of his word, and there has been almost nothing that has displeased him.

The only thing that he's not satisfied with right now is that he hasn't broken through to the Supreme level yet.

It's the same principle as other emperors who became particularly obsessed with alchemy in their later years.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty desperately wanted to break through and become the Supreme Martial Arts Master!

How long can a martial arts master live?

No one can explain it clearly.

It's definitely much longer than that of an ordinary person.

However, below the Martial Arts Supreme, even if you are a Great Free and Unfettered Sword Immortal, or even a Half-Step Supreme.

Your lifespan is also locked at 120 years.

That's the theoretical lifespan limit for an average person...

To put it bluntly, from the perspective of the level of life.

Only those who reach the pinnacle of martial arts can be considered to have truly transcended limitations.

If you lack the ability and opportunity, that's fine too.

Ordinary people would definitely give up.

But His Majesty the Emperor of Great Zhou has the ability and the opportunity, and is only half a step away from a breakthrough.

Even Li Changqing would probably find it hard to resist such temptation.

"This is the token! You can go anytime after His Majesty emerges from seclusion."

This seclusion failed, and the old man was already over sixty...

Qin King Li Yuanhao pondered that the old man probably had no intention of going into seclusion again.

You can't deny getting old!

For a martial artist over sixty years old, it is already quite remarkable to maintain their energy and spirit.

It is almost impossible to go any further.

"Now you can ask questions. I will answer any questions I can."

Aside from the secret of time travel, there's also the secret of his elder brother Li Changsheng's elder brother, which Li Changqing feels is hard to say.

Everything else is fine.

"Have you broken through to the Free and Unfettered Realm yet?"

What Li Yuanhao was most concerned about was Li Changqing's current cultivation level.

According to the information reported by his secret guards.

In the great battle at the Shanhai County dock, Li Changqing revealed his master-level strength.

That is, the Profound Realm.

However, the Tongxuan Realm can be divided into three levels: the early and middle stages of Tongxuan Jing.

These are the renowned masters and grandmasters in the martial arts world.

The second level is the late stage of the Profound Realm.

In the martial arts world, the truly top-tier masters are those who can establish themselves.

People also call this state of mind the Realm of Freedom.

With this level of cultivation, one can roam freely throughout the world...

Li Yuanhao had no doubt that Li Changqing had broken through to the Grandmaster level.

Instead, they asked him if he had broken through to the Free and Unfettered realm.

Clearly, he had great confidence in Li Changqing.

Li Changqing hesitated for a moment.

In the end, he felt that since Li Yuanhao had not directly asked about his martial arts level, there was no need for him to bring it up.

The other party only asked him if he had broken through to the Free and Unfettered Realm.

There is no doubt about this.

"We've broken through!"

Upon hearing Li Changqing's answer, the light in Li Yuanhao's eyes seemed to shoot out.

"Excellent! Excellent!! I knew I was right. My Great Zhou royal family should have its own supreme powerhouse."

Before this, the King of Qin still had a mere 0.01% doubt.

Now he no longer has even the slightest doubt.

The person in front of him was definitely his Qing'er.

Although Qing'er has lost his memory, his name remains unchanged.

Clearly, he remembered his name when he was first found.

Evergreen.

Evergreen.

"Your mother took the Nangong family's treasures back then, and I took ours too..."

Li Yuanhao suddenly realized what he had said.

He shut up sheepishly.

Although he didn't explain himself clearly, Li Changqing heard him.

He had suspected long ago that his aptitude seemed a little too extraordinary.

Logically speaking, someone like his elder brother, Li Changsheng, already possesses the qualities of a prodigy.

Even Li Changsheng, who is now twenty-three years old, has only just reached the late stage of the Innate Realm.

Li Changsheng will break through to the Profound Realm in a short time. However, if he wants to reach the pinnacle of Freedom, he will need at least a few more years of accumulation.

It was after he turned thirty that Li Changsheng's strength truly began to explode.

What heights can he actually reach?

Is it carefree, the ultimate carefree, or the legendary half-step supreme being?

We'll only know the outcome then.

Li Changsheng already possesses the talent of a prodigy.

Li Changqing, on the other hand, had already passed that stage long ago.

If we were to describe him by his talent, even the title of a peerless genius would not be enough.

Li Changqing should be considered a prodigy, a peerless genius.

So that's where the root of the problem lies.

The most precious treasure of the reclusive Nangong family, plus the treasures of the Great Zhou royal family.

The Great Zhou royal family can pass down a half-step to supreme status. As a reclusive family, the Nangong family should also possess a similar treasure for bloodline inheritance.

The combination of the two produced a chemical reaction, which gave birth to this unparalleled genius.

That seems reasonable!

"A sixteen-year-old at the Free and Unfettered Realm? That's nothing compared to scaring those old fogies of the royal family to death."
