Imperial Cultivation

After standing before the visualization diagram for an hour, a vague pattern had already formed in his mind.

As soon as the blurry pattern appeared, illusions arose in his mind.

One moment, he was in the Eastern Territory, fighting with the grandmasters of the邪宗 (Evil Sect), each strike of his blade sending a head flying.

The next, he was in Inviting Moon Palace, intimately entangled with Xiao Ruoling, on the verge of crossing the line.

Then, he and Cheng Miaozhen were on the bed, inverting Yin and Yang, engaging in a dragon and tiger battle.

Each time he fell into an illusion, just as he was about to lose control, a dragon's roar echoed in his mind, instantly waking him up.

The third time he awoke, he was filled with confusion.

The first two times were nothing surprising, merely remnants of his own desires.

But the third time was strange.

He had no romantic thoughts about Cheng Miaozhen, so why would such an illusion arise?

Although Cheng Miaozhen was beautiful, she was not his preferred type; he still favored Xiao Ruoling more.

He carefully analyzed why this illusion occurred, and it was likely related to his cultivation of the Yin-Yang Calamity Transcending Secret Scripture.

After practicing this secret scripture, one could see Yin and Yang, and also possess the characteristic of Yin and Yang attraction.

This was a mutual attraction caused by the cultivation technique, a kind of external force pulling them together.

When Qi moves, the spirit moves; when the spirit moves, illusions arise.

He quickly cast aside these illusions and continued to visualize, and then illusions continued to appear.

Chu Qingfeng stood aside, watching his face change constantly.

Each time he was about to intervene, he noticed that Chu Zhiyuan suddenly regained consciousness.

After several times, he was certain that Chu Zhiyuan was able to withstand these illusions.

He was filled with curiosity.

Then he remembered what Chu Zhiyuan had once said, that it was due to practicing the Dragon Transformation Art.

When the Dragon Transformation Art was cultivated to this level, it was as if one transformed into a flying dragon, with a will like a dragon, reaching heaven and earth, unafraid of any external influence.

Chu Qingfeng shook his head and sighed.

These three ancient inheritances were all extremely powerful, carefully selected and profound cultivation methods.

Now it seemed that the Emperor was very farsighted.

The completion of the Dragon Transformation Art had a huge impact on him; his current achievements were all due to these three inheritances.

Chu Qingfeng said: "Your clarity is far from enough; it needs to be even clearer."

Chu Zhiyuan frowned in confusion: "Even clearer?"

"It needs to come alive."

"Come alive—"

Chu Zhiyuan pondered.

"As long as you continue to visualize, when the time is right, it will naturally come alive. When that time comes, it will transform into the Grandmaster's Gate."

"I understand." Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

Chu Qingfeng said: "It seems you are about to enter the Grandmaster realm. Don't be impatient, don't make mistakes, especially with the illusions."

The Fourth Prince's aptitude was truly astonishing.

No one had ever entered the threshold so quickly, and experienced so many illusions.

His progress in cultivation at this moment was equivalent to his own cultivation for a month.

Was the gap between his aptitude and his so great?

But thinking about the time it took him to cultivate to the Consummate Grandmaster realm, from the speed of advancement, the difference between his aptitude and his was even greater.

He shook his head inwardly at this thought.

He really didn't know why such a genius would appear in the world. Great Jing would become even stronger because of him.

"The illusions are indeed powerful," Chu Zhiyuan said. "They are all different."

Some were things he had never thought of, and some were ridiculously absurd.

For example, he actually held Li Hongzhao in his arms, and Li Hongzhao smiled like a flower in his embrace, as gentle and obedient as Xiao Ruoling.

This illusion made him exclaim that it was outrageous.

He had never had such thoughts in his mind; there was no way Li Hongzhao could become like that.

It seemed that illusions were not only his own thoughts, but also his opposite thoughts.

Chu Qingfeng said: "Illusions are the most important part of this Kunlun visualization diagram. They are used to temper the heart and refine the essence, Qi, and spirit."

Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.

Through illusions, one can indeed see some of the deepest thoughts in one's heart.

Sometimes, one does not understand oneself. Through illusions, one can understand oneself more.

Understanding oneself, seeing one's true nature, and thus releasing oneself, not restricting oneself.

After experiencing more than a dozen illusions, he found that his state of mind had unconsciously become much calmer.

He was no longer so obsessed with becoming a Grandmaster, feeling that there was no need to rush. One day, he would become a Grandmaster. It was good to cultivate slowly like this now.

Under this unhurried state, the illusions also became calmer.

Chu Zhiyuan stopped visualizing and found that his spirit was exhausted and he was about to collapse.

So he circulated the Heavenly Origin Art, and a continuous stream of sweet dew fell into the Baihui acupoint, quickly replenishing his spirit.

He found that this visualization diagram only consumed spirit, and did not involve the soul.

There was no need to use the Spirit Communication Talisman.

Chu Qingfeng saw that he recovered his spirit in a moment, and was radiant again, about to continue cultivating. He said helplessly: "Let's stop here for today."

Chu Zhiyuan opened his eyes.

"Don't be too hasty," Chu Qingfeng said. "Haste is also an obstacle."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded without refuting.

"After you go back, first go to Inviting Moon Palace to see your future Consort Princess. When your state of mind is calm, visualize again.

It will be much better."

"Yes."

Chu Zhiyuan slowly walked on the street, not going directly to the Ministry of Rites.

He planned to rest for a few days before going to the Ministry of Rites. Anyway, Gao Lingfeng was holding down the fort there.

He planned to go to the other courtyard to see how Weng Qifeng was doing.

This was an excellent opportunity to observe and see how a Grandmaster was achieved and how they changed.

Watching the process of a Consummate Grandmaster step by step becoming a Grandmaster was crucial to him.

He felt that since he could solve the problem of Innate Consummation to Grandmaster, then why couldn't he solve the problem of Consummate Grandmaster to Grandmaster?

Could he help others achieve Grandmaster?

Not to mention anything else, having a few more Grandmasters around him would not only affect him, but also affect the strength of the entire Great Jing.

At that time, would the Great Meng dare to continue invading south?

Great Jing would be considered honest if it didn't invade north!

On the way, he met Gao Jiuqu.

Gao Jiuqu was still gentle and refined, walking slowly on Phoenix Avenue, like a scholar.

The two chatted for a while by the roadside, and Gao Jiuqu invited him to the Sifang Pavilion.

Chu Zhiyuan walked side by side with Gao Jiuqu and said with a smile: "Brother Gao, are you going to stay in the Sifang Pavilion all the time, not entering the Princess's Mansion?" Gao Jiuqu said: "It's not appropriate to enter the Princess's Mansion. It's good to live in the Sifang Pavilion, a place to stay, no need to be too picky."

"Content with one's lot," Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Brother Gao has great spirit."

"Will the Evil Sect seek revenge on me after this painful killing?"

"In my opinion, the Evil Sect will retaliate," Gao Jiuqu said solemnly: "The Prince must be careful."

"How will they retaliate?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Gao Jiuqu said: "They will directly break into the inner city of Yujing, and even break into the Prince's Mansion."

Chu Zhiyuan's sword-like eyebrows shot up, and his face darkened slightly.

Gao Jiuqu suddenly felt difficulty breathing.

It was as if a cold knife was against his throat, and the cold air penetrated his bones.

He couldn't help but be horrified: What a strong killing intent, what a powerful saber intent!

Chu Zhiyuan then smiled: "Thanks to Brother Gao for reminding me, I really didn't expect them to be so bold."

"The Evil Sect has always acted like this," Gao Jiuqu shook his head: "You can't speculate with common sense."

"It seems that I didn't kill enough," Chu Zhiyuan said lightly.

His heart was filled with killing intent, but on the surface he was calm and composed: "Which sect is breaking into the mansion?"

"Jade Cauldron Sect," Gao Jiuqu said.
