Imperial Cultivation

He could almost be certain that the Emperor would never agree.

This touched upon power, even imperial power, the Emperor's most sensitive area.

Even if Chu Zhiyuan was not favored, the Emperor would never trust the eldest prince.

"Either ban the Demonic Sect's mental cultivation method, causing turmoil in the world, or use the Flying Cloud Sect to control the various factions of the Demonic Sect for the court's use. Weighing the importance, the decision rests entirely with Father Emperor."

"Can you really control the Flying Cloud Sect?" Chu Honglin asked, "Don't end up with the Flying Cloud Sect out of control, and the entire Demonic Sect out of control."

"That's just the current situation, it can't get any worse, can it?"

"The Demonic Sect has been growing rapidly. When the time comes, the court may have to pay a greater price to suppress them."

"The expansion is because the demons are causing trouble behind the scenes. If we can diminish the demons' prestige on the extraterritorial battlefield, the Demonic Sect on our side will naturally not be so smooth."

"Diminishing the demons' prestige is easier said than done?" Chu Honglin shook his head. "It's better to ban the Demonic Sect's mental cultivation method."

Chu Zhiyuan said, "I can control the Flying Cloud Sect."

Chu Honglin shook his head and said, "I guess Imperial Brother won't agree."

He sighed, "You're smart enough, you should be able to think of it."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "If it were Big Brother, Father Emperor might not agree, but me... he might agree instead."

To get involved in the control of the Flying Cloud Sect and control the various factions of the Demonic Sect might seem like touching upon power.

If the eldest prince controlled the Flying Cloud Sect and the Demonic Sect, the Emperor would indeed be wary.

But the final decision was still made by the Emperor, and no one could guess what he was thinking.

——

Chu Zhiyuan stood with his hands behind his back in his small courtyard, looking up at the crescent moon in the night sky.

The crescent moon was like a hook.

The cool night breeze was refreshing on his face.

He smiled, especially illuminating the six rings of light around the small snake in his膻中(Dan Zhong acupoint).

Unknowingly, he had already stepped into the seventh revolution.

This was all thanks to the昊阳伏魔镜(Austerity Sun Demon Subduing Mirror).

The昊阳伏魔镜(Austerity Sun Demon Subduing Mirror) purified his soul, making it purer.

At the same time, his understanding of light deepened.

The deeper his understanding of light in the无量光明经(Boundless Brightness Sutra), the faster his cultivation efficiency.

Plus the increase in soul power.

The combination of the two more than doubled the efficiency of his cultivation, even reaching three times that of before.

This allowed him to progress faster in his cultivation, reaching the seventh revolution in just two days.

He was extremely satisfied with the great gains he had made this time.

The昊阳伏魔镜(Austerity Sun Demon Subduing Mirror) was indeed profound.

In addition to purifying and strengthening the soul and deepening the understanding of light, his avatar神通(divine power) also became stronger.

The halo behind the true self sitting cross-legged in the void of his mind was becoming thicker and stronger.

This was all transformed from the faith and gratitude of the disciples of the Flying Cloud Sect.

The disciples of the Flying Cloud Sect had already become his believers, providing him with faith and helping to enhance his神通(divine power).

He only regretted that his cultivation was not enough. Even if it was, he could not go to the extraterritorial battlefield to harvest demons and refine their souls.

The昊阳伏魔镜(Austerity Sun Demon Subduing Mirror) refined the souls of demons, turning them into pure soul power, and then stored their memories separately for easy retrieval.

Going to the extraterritorial battlefield to kill demons was the greatest use of the昊阳伏魔镜(Austerity Sun Demon Subduing Mirror).

He felt regret in his heart.

At the same time, he was curious about what the Emperor would decide, whether he would spare the Flying Cloud Sect and use it.

……

Suddenly, he jumped up and floated into the air, hovering motionless.

The Moon Silk Frost Clothes supported him in the air, looking at a restaurant two miles away.

In an elegant room on the third floor of this琼华楼(Qionghua Restaurant), sat an ordinary-looking young man.

The young man sat by the window, looking through the window at the bustling crowd below, at the prosperous shops and stalls on both sides of the street.

Sitting at the table was a slender and graceful woman, dressed in white like snow, calm and composed, it was Li Yuzhen.

Chu Zhiyuan's eyes were bright.

Super-sense could illuminate Li Yuzhen, but not this young man.

This young man was shrouded in an invisible force that isolated super-sense illumination.

But his eyes could see clearly, seeing his face through the window.

It was a very ordinary face, and there was no sign of a woman's appearance at all.

This disguise technique could be described as seamless.

If it weren't for the Autumn Water Divine Saber, he wouldn't have been sure of this woman's identity, and he would never have thought of this woman's identity.

"Your Highness," Li Yuzhen said helplessly, "Have you had enough fun? You have to go back as soon as possible."

"No hurry."

"Your Highness wants to see驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law), right?驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) just returned to the mansion," Li Yuzhen said.

"Who said I wanted to see him?!" the young man snorted.

Li Yuzhen said helplessly, "驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) won't leave the mansion these few days."

The young man frowned at her.

Li Yuzhen said, "驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) just went on a mission and felt that time was wasted, so he wants to make up for it, so he will actively cultivate, almost in closed-door cultivation."

"He went to the Great Bright Peak to cultivate," the young man said indifferently.

Li Yuzhen nodded, "So he hardly leaves the mansion. If Your Highness wants to see him, the best way is to visit him directly."

"Bad idea, you only come up with bad ideas!"

"Your Highness,驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) doesn't want to leave the mansion..."

"Then lure him out of the mansion!" the young man said angrily, "...Of course, I don't want to see him either."

Li Yuzhen said, "How to lure him?"

"Do I have to teach you such a small thing?!"

"I really don't know how to lure驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) out.驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) is extremely cautious and alert."

"You won't harm him."

"But he will guard against me. The only person he trusts is姑娘(Miss) Youlan."

"姑娘(Miss) Youlan..." the young man frowned.

Chu Zhiyuan's eyes flickered, and he chuckled.

This young man was obviously the famous Twelfth Princess Li Miaohan.

Disguise cannot change the contours of her face and facial features.

Through this face shape and facial features, he tried to restore Li Miaohan's appearance.

In the end, he sighed that this disguise technique was indeed amazing, and the original beautiful face was completely concealed.

"Your Highness, how about this, write an invitation and directly invite驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) to come and meet."

"Still a bad idea!" Li Miaohan said angrily, "Can't you think of something reliable?"

"Is this still not good?" Li Yuzhen said, "Although you haven't gotten married, you are already husband and wife, not outsiders, why be hypocritical and polite?"

"This is not hypocrisy but majesty," Li Miaohan snorted, "If we really do this, the face of our Phoenix Dynasty will be completely lost!"

"...Okay then, I'll tell驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) that I found a suspicious person."

"Me——?"

"Exactly," Li Yuzhen said, "I think Your Highness is very suspicious, please ask驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law) to come and take a look."

"Don't drag me out," Li Miaohan said coquettishly, "Can't you think of something more secure?"

Li Yuzhen asked in confusion, "Your Highness is just watching from the side, not meeting驸马爷(Imperial Son-in-Law)?"

"Yes, just take a few glances," Li Miaohan nodded.

Li Yuzhen looked at Li Miaohan in confusion.

She originally thought that Li Miaohan was seeing Chu Zhiyuan to discuss matters.

Now she realized that she was wrong. It wasn't to discuss matters at all, but to see the true appearance of the Ninth Prince with her own eyes.

Chu Zhiyuan thought for a while, and suddenly accelerated, drawing a straight line in the air and shooting towards Qionghua Restaurant.
