Chapter 37: Closed-Door Cultivation

  The king was assassinated in the palace, and even his head was cut off. The impact is really bad. If we dont find out who did it and severely punish them, wont anyone dare to kill members of the royal family in the future?

  Yunwu County King Lei Feng was enraged, and overnight summoned the ten great generals guarding the Wang City to enter the palace, closing the city gates and sealing off the Wu Market. It would be better to mistakenly capture a hundred than to let one go.

  "How many years has it been since someone dared to assassinate a member of the royal family in the imperial city? His guts are truly not small." The Prince of Yunwu let out a cold snort.

  In the great hall, the ten generals felt as if they had just heard a deafening thunderclap, their eardrums almost shattering, and their entire bodies trembling before immediately falling to their knees.

  They were ten people, each with tens of thousands of soldiers under their command, holding high positions and great power, and their own martial arts skills were incredibly strong. However, the Prince of Yunwu Garrison merely let out a cold snort, and then shocked them all into kneeling on the ground.

  No choice, Yun Wu County King is a strong Tianji boundary, can be called the legend of martial arts, in the martial artist, it is an existence like "heaven".

  Guoshi Xue Jing Tian stood respectfully below, saying: "Your Majesty, this matter may be related to the Baiyue Demon Sect. In Yunwu County, only the Baiyue Demon Sect and Heishi dare to oppose the royal family."

  "The black market has also gathered many evil and vicious characters, but they usually do things with benefits in mind. Killing the Eighth Prince is a completely unprofitable thing to do, which doesnt seem like their style."

  "Its actually the Byakuren Sect, they worship evil gods and are unpredictable, its entirely possible that they would kill Hakuro and use this to provoke the royal family."

  The eyes of the Cloud Martial Emperor, Wu Junwang, sank slightly.

  In the state of Yunwu, the most powerful force is naturally the royal family, which controls the military power of the world, with strong men as numerous as clouds, ruling the entire kingdom.

  Those other sects and families are nothing but small households in front of the royal family, and there is no comparison to be made.

  However, there are also some forces that can rival the royal family, such as the Mingwen Guild, the Baitou Demon Sect, the Black Market, and the Wushi Bank.

  Mingwen Guild and Wushi Financial House, one grasped all the alchemists, artifact craftsmen, beast tamers, and eccentric masters in the world; another controlled more than 30% of the kingdoms wealth.

  Mingtu Guild and Wucheng Money House are all over the Kunlun Realm, and their words can affect the decisions made by the King of Yunwu County.

  Of course, the Minghui Guild, Wu City Money House and official forces complement each other, mutually beneficial, and under normal circumstances, they will never confront the official forces.

  In times of peace, the Mingong Guild and the Wu City Money House were symbolic of submission to official forces, to a certain extent, accepting management by official forces.

  However, matters that truly involve core interests are all managed by the Minglun Guild and the Wushi Bank themselves, and even official forces dare not intervene.

  Black market has existed since ancient times, just like Mingxin Guild Hall and Wushi Money House, and is completely unregulated by official forces.

  Black market, specializing in all kinds of dirty underground transactions, belongs to the dark side of the world.

  They controlled nearly half of the assassins, prostitutes, thieves, and wanted criminals in the world, as well as a large number of slave traders and dark mercenaries.

  The black market, to a certain extent, can rival the Wu City Money House, with a considerable amount of power.

  Official forces can suppress the black market to a certain extent, but they can never eliminate them. In some other counties and countries, the black market even controls the entire government and military of that county or country, turning it into a dark paradise.

  As for the Moon Demon Sect, its even more terrifying. They worship demon gods and have many strong followers. In every province and city, they have established branches that specifically counter official forces.

  They even wanted to overthrow the rule of the First Central Empire and control the entire Kunlun Realm.

  The Moon Demon Sect will establish a main altar in every county and state, setting up a main altar master. Under the flag of each county and state, a branch altar will be established in every city, and a branch altar master will be set up.

  In Yunwu County, there is also a force of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect.

  It is said that Yunwu Countys Baiyue Demon Sects Grandmaster, who was also a Tianji Realm cultivator, was a legendary figure in the world of martial arts.

  "If its really the Moon Worship Sect who killed the Eighth Prince, then its absolutely a threatening signal. Theyre probing the depths of Yunwu Commandery, saying that a large number of powerful sect members are gathering in Yunwu Commandery, preparing to make their move." said Guoshi Xue Jingtian

  The national teacher is the elder brother of the queen, and naturally knows that the eighth prince was mistakenly killed by someone sent by the queen.

  In order not to let Yunwu County King suspect Wang Hous body, he can only shift Yunwu County Kings attention to the Baiyue Demon Sect.

  The assassination of a prince is a big deal, but the White Moon Cult is an even bigger deal.

  It is known that for eight hundred years, the Moon Worshipping Sect has destroyed more than one state and county, and for many rulers, it was like a nightmare.

  If the Moon Demon Sect really wants to launch a large-scale attack on Yunwu County, no matter how important other things are, the King of Yunwu County will definitely put them aside first.

  Upon hearing Guoshis words, Yunwu Junwangs expression indeed turned solemn.

  The national teacher looked at Yunwu County King and let out a slight sigh of relief.

  Finally, let the King of Yunwu County shift his attention. If the King of Yunwu County orders a thorough investigation into the cause of the death of the Eighth Prince, it is possible that he will investigate the Queens body.

  "Hachioji cannot be killed by Byakuren," Zhang Ruochen said loudly as he walked into the grand hall.

  The national masters eyes condensed and said: "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince, has another opinion."

  Zhang Ruochen said, "The Eighth Prince was riding in my carriage, so he was killed on the way back to the palace. Its clear that the assassins target was me, and the Eighth Prince was just an accidental victim."

  Yunwu County King nodded and said, "Jiuer is right. The Baiyue Demon Sect has always been high-profile in their actions. If they really intend to provoke the royal family, its absolutely not just a simple assassination of Baer. This matter must be thoroughly investigated. In case of any unexpected events, Ge Qian, you immediately leave the palace and secretly investigate the recent movements of the Baiyue Demon Sect."

  "Obey orders and follow instructions"

  The personal bodyguard of Yunwu County King, Gao Qian, cupped his hands and bowed, then retreated. He left the palace that night to investigate the Moon Worshiping Sect.

  Then Zhang Ruochen and the ten great generals also left the grand hall.

  The ten great generals immediately rushed to investigate the cause of Wangzis death and capture the murderer.

  Zhang Ruochen returned to Yuwu Palace and checked Yuners injuries before entering the inner space of the Time-Space Crystal to continue his cultivation.

  "The killers who wanted to kill someone, must be me. Tonights affairs are indeed treacherous, if it wasnt for the Eighth Prince forcing Yuner to send him back to the palace, Im afraid the one who would have died is me. Who will it be in the end?"

  At the end of the year assessment, he performed so dazzlingly that he would definitely be envied by others.

  The people in the palace are the most suspicious.

  Of course, the Black Market and the Cult of the New Moon are not entirely impossible either. After all, the birth of a top genius in the royal family is also a threat to them. The best way is to kill that genius in the cradle.

  "Whats the point of thinking so much? As long as my cultivation is strong enough, no one can kill me. Besides, the assassination of the Eighth Prince caused a huge commotion, and its unlikely that they will launch a second assassination in such a short period of time."

  Zhang Ruochen no longer thought much about it and took out a Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan, holding it in the palm of his hand.

  The celestial red fire pill was about the size of a dragon eye, and it looked like a burning flame, emitting an extremely scorching aura.

  The three kinds of Dan medicine are indeed different, and the contained Dan Qi is really too thick.

  To know that the price of a Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan is comparable to that of a fifth-grade True Martial Treasure. Such luxurious pills can only be bought in bulk by Zhang Ruo Chen, who purchased seven at once.

  Only a physically strong person like Zhang Ruochen would dare to take the Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan. If it were another Huang Ji realm warrior, not only would they be unable to refine the Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan, but they would also risk being burned by the dan fire.

  Swallowing the Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan into his belly was like swallowing a small, miniature sun. The pain was absolutely no less than the pain he had experienced when cultivating in the Barbarian God Pool.

  "Hehe"

  A strand of scarlet flame and essence burst forth from the Heavenly Scarlet Flame Pearl, pouring into Zhang Wujis meridians, flesh, bones, and five organs, continuously tempering his physical body.

  After spending three whole days, Zhang Ruochen finally refined the heavenly fire of the Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan, and his physical strength increased by a large margin. Moreover, the true energy in his dantian actually doubled.

  In these three days, Zhang Ruochen had only refined all of the Dan fire, and the Dan Qi was only refined to 30%.

  After spending five more days, Zhang Ruochen had refined all the medicinal properties of the Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan. The true energy in his dantian had increased significantly once again.

  "At this speed, Ill be able to refine two more Heaven Flame Pills and fully cultivate the true energy in my Qi Pool, reaching the peak of the mid-stage of the Yellow Extreme Boundary."

  The effect of Tiān Xiàng Chì Huǒ Dān is not to enhance true energy, but to temper the physical body.

  However, the Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan was really too against the heavens. While refining his physical body, it also increased Zhang Ruo Chens true energy by a considerable amount.

  Zhang Ruochen did not rush to refine the second Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan, after all, the medicinal power of Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan was too intense, and if taken consecutively, even with Zhang Ruochens strong physique, he would definitely be unable to withstand it.

  "First practice engraving basic spatial patterns"

  Zhang Ruochen took out a pencil and spiritual paper, infused his true energy into the pencil, and drew on the spiritual paper stroke by stroke.

  I practiced for a whole day, wasting over 130 sheets of spirit paper, but still couldnt successfully engrave a single talisman.

  He didnt give up and continued practicing, continuing to carve.

  For the next month, Zhang Ruochen stayed inside the Time and Space Crystal almost all the time, only going out once every three days.

  The rest of the time was spent practicing Long Xiangs Ban Ru Zhang, Tian Xin Jian Quan and practicing engraving eight basic spatial seals.

  One month outside is equivalent to three months in the inner space of the Time-Space Crystal.

  In three months, Zhang Ruochen refined three Tian Xiang Chi Huo Dan and finally perfected the cultivation of the true energy in his dantian, reaching the peak of the Yellow Extreme Realms extreme position, and could begin to impact the Great Extreme Position of the Yellow Extreme Realm.

  "With my current physique, its almost the same as in my previous life. After all, I was only six years old when I broke through to the Yellow Extreme Boundarys Great Extreme Position in my previous life." Zhang Ruochen said.

  Zhang Ruochen is ready to start his assault on the Yellow Extreme Boundarys Great Pole Position.

  "I dont know how many meridians I can open up, in my previous life at Huangji Boundarys Great Extreme Position, I opened up 27 meridians. Can I surpass that this life?"

  Zhang Ruochens eyes became extremely determined, no matter what, he must achieve it.
