Fantasy: Starting with a bowl, you can exchange it for endless cultivation.

The second prince also led everyone away.

They arrived at his residence.

He directly took out the prepared document, which promised that as long as Gu Chen won the competition for him.

He then bestowed upon Gu Chen his supernatural powers.

Give it to Gu Chen.

"Gu Chen, you really didn't disappoint me. You truly deserve to be the strongest person in the history of our Divine Dynasty in terms of ability to challenge those above their level. Impressive." The Second Prince laughed and patted Gu Chen on the shoulder.

After accepting the supernatural power from the Second Prince, Gu Chen smiled and said, "You flatter me, Second Prince."

"You deserve it," the Second Prince said confidently.

Then he looked at the divine ability that Gu Chen had taken from him and said, "This divine ability is called the 'Movement' Secret. It's a divine ability that can enhance speed. I don't know exactly how strong it is because I haven't cultivated it to its highest level. Some people can use it to unleash dozens of times their speed, while others can only increase their speed by one or two times. How far one can cultivate it depends entirely on one's own talent."

This supernatural power.

He had been waiting for a long time.

He also won over many people through his influence.

However, different people cultivate it to different degrees.

Some people can only rely on him to unleash one or two times the speed.

Some people, however, can use it to unleash speeds dozens of times faster.

No one knows the limits of this supernatural power.

It all depends on how well you can master it.

"Yes, thank you, Second Prince." Gu Chen said, looking at the divine power in his hand.

The Secret of the Character "行" (Xing)

Does it rely on talent?

This is something he's good at.

His greatest strength is his talent.

He relied entirely on his talent to comprehend all the techniques and martial arts along the way.

With enough money, it can definitely be piled up to a very high level.

I just don't know if this "Xingzi Secret" is the same one he was thinking of.

If it's the same one.

When one cultivates to a high level, one can reach the fastest speed in the world, travel through time and space, traverse tens of thousands of miles in a single step, and pass through countless sealing formations, making it difficult for any of the ten directions of forbidden regions to stop one.

That would be awesome.

at this time.

The Second Prince continued, "Gu Chen, I'd like to ask you something."

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen looked at the Second Prince and asked, "What is it?"

"Do you want to be transferred to Zhongzhou?" The Second Prince looked at Gu Chen: "Your talent is outstanding, and you have offended a lot of people recently. If you continue to stay in Yuehai County of Huangzhou, you may be in danger. Zhong Hong has a new mission and may not be able to go there to protect you. You can only ask your master, Shangguan Wuqing, to send experts from the Night Watch to protect you secretly."

"If you are willing to be transferred to Zhongzhou, I can find a prefecture where you can continue to serve as the head of the Night Watch. Zhongzhou is the center of the Divine Dynasty, and neither the Mitian Sect nor the Yamamoto family would dare to come here to attack you again. You can consider it."

Upon hearing this...

After thinking for a moment, Gu Chen replied, "Thank you for your kindness, Second Prince, but I still wish to stay in the Desolate State."

The Cheng family has not yet been able to gain a foothold in the Li Huo Prefecture of the Desolate State.

All industries are located here.

If he were to be transferred to Zhongzhou, he naturally wouldn't come.

Coming to Zhongzhou, everything has to start anew.

Coming to Zhongzhou would allow them to avoid assassination attempts by the Yamamoto family and the Mitian Cult.

But this place is too close to the Crown Prince.

He did so many things that thwarted the Crown Prince's plans.

They are not targeted by the Mitian Cult and the Yamamoto family, but are easily targeted by the Crown Prince.

Moreover, he has many secrets.

In the Central Plains, they are easily monitored.

Forget it.

It's better to continue living in his desolate state.

This way, the Cheng family can at least expand their business rapidly.

If they come to Zhongzhou, the Crown Prince will deliberately have people suppress the Cheng family's businesses.

He had no way to resist.

The Second Prince is now ordering him to be transferred to Zhongzhou.

The implication was that Zhong Hong could no longer protect him.

The matter of the Second Prince having him win the battle against the Crown Prince and the Emperor Tizong is now over.

We won't need him for a while.

There's no need for a second-rank expert to protect him every moment.

Zhong Hong should be reassigned to other places.

However, Zhong Hong was not by his side.

Just as he intended.

His combat power has now reached the level of a third-grade grandmaster.

Someone was protecting him.

Instead, it makes one seem constrained and restricted.

On his master's side, he would also request that no one be wasted on protecting him.

He's fine.

Having witnessed Zhong Hong's massacre of a group of powerful members of the Yamamoto family.

It seems that the people of the Mitian Sect and the Yamamoto family have been intimidated.

They won't dare to target him again for a while.

He can focus on developing his business for a while.

"Alright then." Seeing that Gu Chen refused, the Second Prince didn't say anything more. If Gu Chen wanted to stay in the Desolate State, then let him stay.

Then, have Shangguan Wuqing send someone to protect him.

The second prince was in a good mood after winning the contest.

He hosted a banquet at the mansion and had lunch with Gu Chen.

Gu Chen then left.

They arrived at Shangguan Wuqing's residence and bid farewell to Shangguan Wuqing and his fellow disciples.

The competition is over.

He would no longer need to stay in Zhongzhou.

It would be better for him to go back to refining pills and earning money.

Shangguan Wuqing did not try to keep him.

I know he can't stay idle.

He was simply reminded that the Jade Platform Dao Secret Realm, which had been given to him when he became an apprentice, was about to open.

It will be launched in a month at most.

Let him prepare.

We'll go in and explore, looking for opportunities.

Don't waste that key.

The Jade Terrace Island Secret Realm opens once every fifty years. It contains countless spiritual herbs, inheritance opportunities, and even the chance for a First-Rank Venerable to break through to Earth Venerable.

It's a place that even top-tier experts covet.

However, there is an age limit; only people under the age of thirty-five can enter.

Apart from Gu Chen, the youngest of Gu Chen's senior brothers, Tie Yangtian, is already thirty-eight years old.

They were no longer eligible to enter.

Only Gu Chen is qualified to enter.

Perhaps Gu Chen can take advantage of this opportunity.

If you go in and gather a lot of rare and precious herbs and elixirs, you might just break through to the upper three ranks of cultivation directly.

Regarding the fact that the Second Prince no longer sends Zhong Hong to protect him, Shangguan Wuqing wants to continue sending strong people to the desolate state to protect him.

Gu Chen refused outright.

The strong members of the Night Watch all have their own responsibilities.

It's fine to perform any task in a short period of time.

There's no need to protect him for so long.

He refused, citing his current strength as being at the mid-stage of the Transformation Sea Realm.

If you don't dare to face these dangers.

You must keep an eye on them at all times.

Then he might as well not be the head of the Night Watch at all.

He can simply cultivate alongside Shangguan Wuqing from Zhongzhou.

Shangguan Wuqing saw that he persisted.

I didn't insist.

Gu Chen's words also make sense.

It's not appropriate to have someone come and watch over him for an extended period of time.

He is already quite strong.

There's no need for someone to watch over you all the time.

As long as he keeps a low profile from now on.

Stop provoking cults and the Yamamoto family.

There shouldn't be any major safety issues.

One day later.

Gu Chen returned to Li Huo Mansion.

It just so happens that the Cheng family will give him tribute money this month, and the Divine Dynasty will pay him his salary.

In total, it amounted to 38,000 taels of silver.

In addition to the 18,000 taels of silver he already had.

This brought the amount of silver he had on him to over 56,000 taels.

That evening, at the mansion.

Gu Chen took out the first-grade martial art "Nine Blades of Blood Transformation" that he had previously obtained.

Since we will be entering the Jade Terrace Island Secret Realm in a month.

Learn the first few cuts first.

This will give him the martial arts skills to fight against a third-rank grandmaster.

The Jade Terrace Island Secret Realm is accessible to those under the age of 35.

At this age, I wonder if there are any masters of that level.

Based on the predictions of the top talents on the annual list of geniuses in the Divine Dynasty, it is possible that there are experts at the Grandmaster level.

Because the Divine Dynasty's Prodigy Ranking includes the strongest individuals under the age of twenty-five.

People who are currently ranked in the top ten.

They were all at the peak of the Transformation Sea Realm.

Give them ten years, and they might be able to break through to the Core Formation stage and then become a Grandmaster.

There are quite a few such prodigies on the list of prodigies every year.

Those who were ranked in the top ten of the Prodigy List ten years ago are now exactly thirty-five years old.

They are qualified to enter the secret realm of Yutai Island.

In addition, there are the countries surrounding the Divine Dynasty, island nations, western royal tribes, and northern barbarian tribes.

I wonder if any prodigies have obtained the key to enter the Jade Terrace Island secret realm and gone in to explore.

Many factors.

He has to take all of this into account.

Therefore, it's best to improve your own strength as much as possible before going in.
