Chapter 441: Chongguan Dixian

Poem -

Under the night sky, in front of the palace square, the white-clad Qin Jun is practicing spear techniques. Golden dragon energy and silver dragon soul swirl around him, and wherever the long spear thrusts, the twin dragons bite. In the darkness, it looks extremely spectacular.

The long spear is like the wind, unstoppable!

Qin Jun becomes more and more excited, thrusting the spear forward with one hand, and the golden dragon energy and silver dragon soul intertwine and roar as they fly out.

"Boom!"

The deafening explosion, dust rising nearly a hundred meters high, flying debris, and the wind blowing up the waves, making Qin Jun's white clothes rustle.

Zhu Yanqing, standing in front of the palace in a brocade robe, watches quietly. She looks at the spirited Qin Jun, her face full of pride. She has watched Qin Jun climb from the Golden Core Realm to the pinnacle of the Void Transformation Realm, and she knows well that Qin Jun's talent is unparalleled in the world.

One by one, the heavenly soldiers quickly fly over, thinking that someone is attacking Qin Jun. However, the high-ranking officers quickly understand the situation with their powerful spiritual awareness.

When they see Qin Jun practicing the spear so gracefully, they look at each other in surprise.

"No wonder His Majesty is still practicing so late!"

"Nonsense, it is said that His Majesty is about to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm."

"Tsk tsk, the Earth Immortal Realm. With such cultivation, one can dominate the Southern Domain. Truly unprecedented!"

"Let's disperse and not disturb His Majesty's practice."

As the heavenly soldiers whisper to each other, they disperse.

After today, news about Qin Jun's late-night cultivation will spread like wildfire, and Qin Jun will become the benchmark for the younger generation.

Even the Qin Emperor, who stands at the peak of the Southern Domain, works so hard. What reason do you have to be lazy?

The moon sets and the sun rises.

The morning sun shines into the holy city.

"The Grand Observation Assembly cannot be delayed. Your Majesty, you must make sure to keep an eye on it, and it's best to find out how to start the Grand Observation Assembly from the Holy Emperor."

In the great hall, Qin Jun instructs Liu Bowen and the Nine Spirit Saint. With the return of the heavenly soldiers and the Nine Li Demon Soldiers, there is no need for the personal intervention of the Nine Spirit Saint.

Liu Bowen nods and smiles, "By the way, General Guan hopes that His Majesty will also bring Zilong to the Grand Observation Assembly to provide support."

Zhao Yun?

Qin Jun suddenly realizes. No wonder Zhao Yun came, but Guan Yu did not.

Upon careful consideration, Zhao Yun may not be over a hundred years old, but he has already reached the Earth Immortal Realm, and his talent is indeed outstanding.

Guan Yu himself served as the Marshal of the Heavenly Court and later entered the era of the late Eastern Han Dynasty in the Journey to the West. With his accumulated age, he has already left the ranks of the young. Therefore, he can only send Zhao Yun to protect.

But does Qin Jun need Zhao Yun's protection now?

Although he thinks so in his heart, Qin Jun does not refuse. The Grand Observation Assembly is a grand event for gathering luck and fortune, and having an additional young expert is a good thing.

Now, Qin Jun is the leader of the Southern Domain's human race. As long as those geniuses don't lose their minds, they won't cause trouble for Qin Jun.

"Report!"

Just then, a heavenly soldier rushes in.

The hundred thousand heavenly soldiers have been appointed by Qin Jun as the guard of the Holy Emperor Peak. The heavenly soldier kneels before Qin Jun and urgently says, "Your Majesty, a 100,000-strong army with the cultivation of the Void Transformation Realm has appeared outside the holy city, claiming to be the Heavenly River Navy coming to pay homage to Your Majesty."

"Oh? They've come so quickly." Qin Jun's eyebrows rise in delight.

Liu Bowen takes a sharp breath. A 100,000-strong army of cultivators in the Void Transformation Realm?

How come he has never heard of the name Heavenly River Navy before?

"Bo Wen, Nine Spirit Saint, you two go and take a look. If they can be trusted, you are responsible for arranging them." Qin Jun smiles. Now, he cannot personally welcome an army just for them. With Liu Bowen's strategic wisdom and the formidable strength of the Nine Spirit Saint, he believes that the Heavenly River Navy will soon be integrated into the Great Qin Heavenly Court.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The two of them nod and leave.

Qin Jun watches their departing figures and then leaps towards the Imperial Garden at the top of the Holy Emperor Peak.

In the Imperial Garden at the top of the Holy Emperor Peak, Yilaotou and Sha Wujing are making preparations.

In the center of the garden, there is a cauldron, and the fragrance of medicine emanates from it. Yilaotou has arranged eight sets of formations around the cauldron. As the breeze blows, leaves flutter, and Qin Jun lands slowly.

"How are the preparations going?" Qin Jun asks. The Grand Observation Assembly is in six days, and he must break through to the Earth Immortal Realm in such a short time.

Success is the only option, failure is not allowed!

"It will be ready soon," Yilaotou responds as he busies himself. Qin Jun stands by quietly.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Sha Wujing steps back, and Yilaotou begins to activate the formation.

With the cauldron at the center, eight red flags are inserted in each direction. Yilaotou raises his hands, and in an instant, spiritual energy gathers visibly, like a green tornado swirling around, leaving Qin Jun dumbfounded.

"You also know formations?" Qin Jun asks curiously.

Yilaotou waves his hand and smiles, "When one drifts in the world, one acquires many skills."

"..."

Qin Jun gives him a thumbs-up, thinking, is he really so shameless as to not fear divine retribution?

"Alright, Your Majesty, you can jump in now," Sha Wujing urges.

What?

Jump in?

Qin Jun's gaze falls on the boiling cauldron, and he can't help but swallow hard, asking, "Are you joking?"

"Don't worry, the temperature inside is not high, it's just boiling on the surface," Sha Wujing reassures him.

"Inside is the Ice Heart Grass, a priceless treasure!" Old Yi sneered, as if asking, are you backing down?

Upon hearing this, Qin Jun gritted his teeth and leaped into the furnace with a thud.

Cold!

As soon as he entered the furnace, Qin Jun shivered and quickly began to operate the Unyielding Sacred Body technique.

He had abandoned the Purple Rainbow Thunder Technique, and although the Unyielding Sacred Body was a body-refining technique, it also had a Qi-refining method. By constantly refining the spiritual energy according to the method, he could continue to break through. As for the limit, Qin Jun didn't know for the time being.

If necessary, he could always switch to a suitable technique in the future!

Boom!

As the spiritual energy and medicinal power entered his body, Qin Jun felt an explosion within him. In an instant, the strange fiery pattern reappeared on his forehead, and with a hum, golden dragon energy uncontrollably overflowed from his body, swirling above his head.

"After doing all that is humanly possible, it's time to leave it to fate," Old Yi sat on the ground and laughed.

He turned to Sha Wujing beside him and said, "I will stay here these days. Remember to bring me wine and meat on time."

After hesitating for a moment, Sha Wujing nodded. Old Yi was Qin Jun's right-hand man, even the Nine Spirit Yuan Saint felt inferior to him. Even if Old Yi had ulterior motives, there was nothing Qin Jun could do about it.

Moreover, Qin Jun had once said that Old Yi could be trusted.

Forget about the nonsense, haha.
