Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags

He realized that as the elixir prompted his body’s potentials,

his blood started to become violent and boiling, like a raging dragon.

This seemed to be the perfect time to train the Technique of Bone Tempering.

The next moment,

he began practicing the secret technique developed by Gongye Lie.

The power of qi and blood transformed into colossal hammers, relentlessly striking his bones.

Each strike expelled impurities.

In his current state, where his blood is enraged like an angry dragon,

the effect of every strike was tremendous.

Impurities were continuously expelled, while the golden light was incorporated into his bones.

Jiang Yuan suddenly felt thousands of needle-like prickles throughout his body, sore and painful.

Despite this, seeing the increasing level of jade-like quality in his bones, the joy in his heart overpowered the pain.

With the elixir’s effects unfolding, Jiang Yuan felt the transformations in his body intensifying.

His blood became more boiling, radiating a terrifying heat.

Under the spread of the intense heat, the surrounding rocks began to melt and drip.

This was why Jiang Yuan came here.

The primordial godlike images in his cellular particles were continually awakening.

…

In the Qianyuan Kingdom.

The royal study.

“Trash!”

“Trash!”

“Trash!!!”

The Human King seated on the dragon throne was furious beyond control.

Suddenly losing his two right-hand men, the King of Martial Suppression and the State Preceptor Tan Hai, his heart was inevitably burning with anger.

This kind of loss, to the Qianyuan Imperial Family, was as painful as a bone scraping.

It cut down their available battle power.

It would severely diminish the effect of his forthcoming plans, making the task of sweeping away the various Immortal Sects in the borderlands much more challenging.

The King of Divine Power standing below remained silent, quietly waiting for the Human King’s anger to subside.

After a long while, the Human King turned to the King of Divine Power and said,

“Wei, you simply cannot afford to make any more mistakes! Without you, I have no one else to count on!”

The King of Divine Power respectful replied, “Dear brother, rest assured, I will not leave Capital during this period!”

“Good!” The Human King nodded, then let out a deep sigh, “If everyone could be as thoughtful as you, it would be wonderful!”

As he said this, the Human King’s face turned unpleasant with anger, “This Zhou Zhen deserves death for his folly, doing such reckless acts to get rid of Supreme Mystery Sect!”

“His own death would be reasonable!”

“But his carelessness led to both Taoists Guanshan and Tan Hai to be buried along with him, he is a complete trash!”

The King of Divine Power respectfully responded, “Dear brother, what should we do about the Supreme Mystery Sect now? They’re more formidable than we thought!”

“For Zhou Zhen and the two Taoists, Guanshan and Tan Hai, to be unable to escape, Jiang Yuan must not be underestimated!”

The Human King, high on the dragon throne, pondered for a few moments, then slowly said, “This person is indeed hard to deal with right now.”

“The Heaven Killing Pavilion blamed our inaccurate information and refused to assassinate him!”

“Looking at the situation now, the information indeed had a huge error!”

“No wonder the Heaven Killing Pavilion’s assassination attempt failed!”

“But, compared to the Sword Sect Master, his performance is still lacking. The latter’s power can compete with any average Four Extremes Realm strong one!”

“So, the most important task right now is to deal with this Sword Sect Master. As for Jiang Yuan, someone will take care of it!”

Upon hearing the Human King’s words, the King of Divine Power’s pupils contracted.

“Is this Sword Sect Master that powerful?”

“Yes!” The Human King nodded, “This man’s sword skill is extraordinary. However, in order to successfully open up the Four Extremes Realm by understanding earth, wind, water, and fire, he needs to comprehend the reversal of the Five Elements into yin and yang, and then change yin and yang into chaos to finally attain a strand of chaotic qi.”

“These three steps are extremely difficult! The first step requires a grasp of the Five Elements Rule. While the second and third steps don’t require rule control per se, they do require profound insights.”

“That’s why even the Sword Sect Master has been stuck on this step for several decades!”

“If not for this stagnation at this step, he would’ve long broken through the Four Extremes Realm.”

King of Divine Power slowly nodded, “No wonder dear brother called Zhou Zhen a fool. The Supreme Mystery Sect is so close to the Heavenly Sword Mountain, Zhou Zhen would’ve never succeeded if the Sword Sect Master decided to take action!”

“So,” the Human King shook his head and sighed quietly, “you all have underestimated the Sword Sect Master of the Heavenly Sword Mountain! I am also to blame for not revealing his true power.”

“He mainly practiced swordsmanship when facing you, without truly showing his battle prowess.”

“Even I was deceived by him for a considerable amount of time!”

King of Divine Power said, “I see, dear brother, rest assured, I will definitely stay in the Capital and await your good news.”

“I should leave now!”

The Human King waved his hand, “Go!”

A moment later, after King of Divine Power left the royal study, he muttered to himself.

Someone’s going to take action against Jiang Yuan?

Who could it be?

Who in the Imperial Family is stronger than the State Preceptor?

He pondered briefly, shaking his head silently. No one in the Imperial Family, besides the Human King himself, was stronger than the State Preceptor!

Even the Great Ritual Officer would at most be on par with the State Preceptor.

So who could this person his dear brother was referring to be?

After considering his thoughts, he murmured to himself in his heart.

No, I must notify Jiang Yuan to be more cautious.

We can’t be careless!

Since my dear brother said so, it must be true.

…

Seven days later,

After examining himself internally, Jiang Yuan saw each and every one of his bones glowing like sacred jade in his body.
