After two quarters of an hour, Ning Chen had reached his limit. His back collapsed. He had no choice but to try to circulate the true qi in his dantian's sea of qi. It gathered bit by bit on his left leg. It was very thin, but the burning pain and emptiness in his left leg had been reduced by a lot.
Seeing that Ning Chen had regained his balance, Qing Ning nodded without showing any emotion. She had to experience the use of her True Qi on her own. No matter how much others said, it was still their own.
She didn't want to teach him moves mainly because she didn't want him to walk the path of martial arts. People in the martial world had no choice. Once they stepped on this path, there was no chance to turn back.
The movement technique that she wanted to teach him was the easiest to learn. It was different from Qinggong. This movement technique focused on shifting and dodging in a small area. To put it bluntly, it was used to save his life.
Ning Chen could more or less guess what Qing Ning was trying to do, so he did not complain about the pain. He just tried his best to persevere.
An hour later, the true qi in his Qi Sea was almost exhausted. Ning Chen once again felt the bone-piercing pain in his left leg, and it was getting stronger.
Beside him, Qing Ning remained silent. Even though she knew that Ning Chen had reached his limit, she did not say a word.
However, Ning Chen still persevered in the end. A person's potential was endless, especially when it came to life. Because he knew that every drop of sweat he shed today would increase his chances of survival in the future.
He was afraid of death, so he could only be unafraid of suffering.
At the same time, in the Heavenly Mandate Palace, Emperor Xia sat on a long chair, deep in thought. The next moment, a figure appeared in the palace. It was silent, as if it had walked out of the void.
The Xia Emperor was not surprised. Instead, he asked calmly,""How is it?"
"No progress," His Highness's secret guard replied respectfully.
The Xia Emperor frowned. How could this be?
" Your Majesty, the Heavenly Works Department and the Ministry of Works have repeatedly confirmed that no matter how the 17 medicinal pills are mixed, it is impossible to produce the same explosive effect as that day," the dark guard said in a deep voice.
The situation that day shocked the entire court. The entire inside of the Palace of Wondrous Prophecy was blown up, and a passage that one could see through was created.
If Great Xia could grasp this heaven-sent item, they would be invincible in the world.
The Xia Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly as he carefully weighed the pros and cons.
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of this little eunuch as soon as possible.
It was not wrong to be talented, but having talents that should not exist in this world should not exist.
There were simply too many eyes in the palace and with the Empress protecting him, no matter if it was in the open or in the dark, it would be inconvenient for him to act. Coincidentally, Xin Yu came over to request for an imperial edict, and he also sent this little eunuch outside the palace.
However, what he did not expect was that this heaven-sent item was actually so difficult to try out.
After thinking for a moment, Emperor Xia made up his mind and calmly said," Let the Heavenly Works Department and the Ministry of Works continue to try. On the other hand, you will follow them secretly on this marriage alliance. Don't let anything happen to Ning Chen."
"Yes, sir."
The secret guard bowed and was about to leave when he stopped and asked,"Your Majesty, what should we do if something changes?"
The Xia Emperor's eyes flashed with killing intent as he coldly spat out a single word.”
It was fine if Great Xia couldn't obtain such a divine item, but they definitely couldn't let anyone else obtain it. If they had no other choice, they would make this heaven-sent item disappear completely. No one would need to obtain it.
He secretly led Wei Yi's god meeting and left silently.
In the distant west, the space shook like a mirage. A desolate divine hall flickered, appearing and disappearing at times. Suddenly, a domineering aura descended and spread out from the divine hall. The terrifying pressure was almost tangible. The ground cracked continuously, extending for hundreds of meters.
"Welcome, Martial Lord!"
"Welcome, Martial Lord!"
Amidst the earth-shaking greetings, the divine hall fell onto the ground. The void was still, and the heavy and ancient gate of the divine hall slowly opened. At a glance, two rows of soldiers were kneeling on the ground in an orderly manner, their heads lowered. In the next moment, a mighty figure like a god walked up to the throne step by step. The moment he turned around and sat down, the world changed color.
"Long live Wu Jun!"
"Long live Wu Jun!"
The Martial Lord came out of seclusion, the generals returned to their positions, and the First Shrine was officially opened. It looked down on the world and reappeared in the human world after a thousand years.
"Tianhuang!"
On the throne, Ye Wujun spoke. Suddenly, a blood-red halberd appeared in the void. With a loud thud, it stabbed into the ground.
Divine Halberd Planet Tianhuang had returned to the human world.
At the same time, everyone in the area sensed something. In an ordinary room in Vastheaven Academy, the College Chief suddenly stopped writing and looked toward the west, a hint of worry in his eyes.
In the north, in the royal palace of the Northern Mongolian Royal Court, the State Teacher woke up from his meditation and said calmly," Inform the Military Advisor that Lord Night Martial has come out of seclusion!”
"Yes, sir."
In the south, in the Temple of Adversity, a withered old monk who was reciting scriptures paused for a moment. After a moment, he continued to move the prayer beads.
In the east, in a Barren City not far from Great Xia, a sword moved lightly, and nothing else happened.
Not long after, a beautiful figure walked over and quietly took away the sword in the city. Qingcheng's face added color to Barren City.
" This sword, Cheng Ying, will belong to you from now on." A calm voice came from the Barren City.
" Thank you, Uncle," Mu Chengxue said respectfully.
The world was in a state of shock and calm. Only the few Connate Cultivators at the top of the world could sense the arrival of this moment. Eternal Night's instructions showed signs of sin.
The strongest Martial Lord of the Eternal Night Divine Sect emerged from the First Hall. He had returned to the world with an invincible attitude. The legendary strong man with an immortal body would eventually start a war in the human world again.
The Great Xia, which occupied more than half of the Divine Prefecture, was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. It was inevitable that they would face the strongest challenge. The number one shrine in the west and the Royal Court of the Northern Region were all devoured by tigers and wolves. Even someone as strong as the Great Xia would find it difficult to withstand.
However, Ning Chen, who was in Weiyang Palace, knew nothing about this. He didn't need to know either. Whether it was the Martial Lord or the Eternal Night Divine Cult, both of them were much more capable and knowledgeable than him. He wasn't high enough, so even if the sky fell, he wouldn't be able to hold it.
The movement technique that Qing Ning had taught him was not simple at all, as he had to master it within 15 days. What was even more unacceptable was that he was not a genius.
Qing Ning was very patient. Although she could be fierce and violent at times, she was still very patient.
Ten days was indeed a short time. After fifteen days, Ning Chen had not been reborn. He was still a rookie of Martial Arts Rank One, and his movement technique was also stuttering. However, everything was difficult at the beginning. As a rookie who had just come into contact with Martial Arts, he could not ask for too much.
Great Xia's bridal procession was ready to set off. The mighty Imperial Army had a total of 500 cavalry, majestic and imposing.
Ning Chen knelt at the door of Zhangsun's bedroom and silently kowtowed three times before getting up and leaving.
He had been appointed by Emperor Xia as Princess Miaoyu's personal attendant and had to report half a day in advance.
" Your Highness, he's gone," said Qing Ning softly in the bedroom.
She had known Ning Chen for a few days, and she had finally seen what it meant to be untamed and audacious. In this palace, Ning Chen was the only person who had never knelt before Emperor Xia. Even when he first met the Empress, he had never knelt before her.
Zhangsun quietly looked at the palace door and did not say a word. After a long silence, he calmly stood up and said," Let's go. Follow me to send Miaoyu off."
" Yes, sir." Qing Ning nodded and followed him.
In the Revelation Hall, in front of the white marble stone steps, in front of Emperor Xia's main hall, he looked down at the mighty bridal procession below. His eyes were deep and calm, and the oppressive aura around him made it difficult for people to believe that he was the most mediocre emperor in the Xia Dynasty in a thousand years.
Behind Emperor Xia, Zhangsun and Noble Consort Wan sat under the canopy. One was noble and unparalleled, while the other was beautiful and compelling. All the officials below did not dare to look up.
The three most honorable men of Great Xia sent them off. At the foot of the stone steps, the 500 imperial soldiers knelt down in unison, their armor clanging as they formed a black mass.
"Long live my emperor!"
"Long live my emperor!"
Deafening shouts shook the sky. Emperor Xia stretched out his hand, and the shouts stopped. The entire Heavenly Mandate Palace was in a terrifying silence.
The Xia Emperor spoke, coolly saying,"Let's set off."
"Set off!"
At the front of the bridal procession, a general clad in black armor shouted. Immediately, his warhorses neighed as the five hundred Imperial Army soldiers led the bridal procession forward.
In the group, beside an extremely gorgeous carriage, Ning Chen turned around and glanced at his grandson and Qingning, who were standing in front of the Heavenly Mandate Palace. A touch of sadness flashed through his heart. This time, perhaps it was really goodbye forever.
He was lucky to meet Zhangsun after entering the palace. Unfortunately, he had no choice but to leave.
The bridal procession headed east. Behind the five hundred imperial guards, there were palace maids and eunuchs, and large carriages and small carts. The entire procession was no less than five li long, making it impossible to see the end of it.
Ning Chen's position was at the center of the group, and beside him was Princess Miaoyu's carriage. This woman was a stranger to everyone in the world. The current Emperor Xia was quite generous to his brothers, but of course, the premise was that the princes had enough self-awareness.
When Emperor Xia ascended the throne, Prince Hua had given up all his official duties and settled down to be Prince An Le. He rarely appeared in front of the public, so the people of the world knew very little about Prince Hua's daughter.
Ning Chen didn't care about these things at all. He only cared about how to escape without anyone noticing. As for sending the bride, there were already so many people who had sent her off, so he wasn't the only one missing.
However, when he saw an old figure in the black carriage behind him, he had to temporarily suppress the idea of running away.
The figure in the carriage was very quiet. He did not say a word along the way. Through the curtain that was blown by the wind, Ning Chen saw an old man in green sitting cross-legged in the carriage. There was a sword on his leg. The sword was not unsheathed, so it did not look strange.
Ning Chen sighed in his heart. Anyone who could pretend like this was either a swordsman or a slut. Obviously, this person belonged to the former.
It seemed that the Xia Emperor was still very concerned about this marriage alliance. Not only had he sent five hundred imperial guards to escort the princess, but he had also specially arranged for such a high-level expert to be by her side.
It was impossible to run away in a short period of time. Ning Chen thought about it again and again. He decided to infiltrate the enemy first and then look for an opportunity.
"Senior, are you thirsty?"
"Senior, are you hungry?"
"Senior, have some fruit."
"Senior…"
In the next three days, Ning Chen would go to the old man every three to five days.
The old man was silent at first, and then continued to be silent. In the end, he couldn't take it anymore and shook Ning Chen out of the carriage.
Unfortunately, he still underestimated Ning Chen's patience. He didn't expect a person's skin to be so thick to the point of being unscrupulous and crazy.
Therefore, five days later, the old man compromised and allowed Ning Chen to nag endlessly in the carriage.
Ning Chen didn't care that the old man ignored him. It was good enough to have a carriage. It was better than walking below.
As for the princess, he had never been summoned.
"Senior, your sword is not bad. Can you lend it to me?”
Tired of talking, Ning Chen looked at the sword in front of the old man. Out of curiosity, seeing that the old man did not object, he reached out to take a look.
"Swoosh!"
At this moment, a sword light flashed, instantly illuminating the entire carriage…
