Chapter 2214: Chapter 1904: I Will Never Let Outsiders Know This Cultivation Technique Exists

Prince Zhen Nan was increasingly inclined to believe that Lu Chen’s recent changes stemmed from the inheritance left by Lu Chen’s mother. Although he couldn’t master those magical techniques himself, Lu Chen was her own flesh and blood, and might be able to use them.

Moreover, the disappearance of those techniques was initially quite mysterious; perhaps they had entered Lu Chen’s mind.

Now that Lu Chen had lost his memory, those magical techniques sealed in his mind had also been unsealed.

If that’s the case, wouldn’t it mean that Zhen Nan Prince Manor was about to flourish?

After all, he had witnessed the power of those magical techniques.

However, considering those magical techniques, while powerful, are not accepted by this world; if Lu Chen uses them rashly, he might follow in his mother’s footsteps.

Thinking of this, Prince Zhen Nan immediately said to Zhao Yu in the dark, "Have Chen’er come here."

Initially, Prince Zhen Nan didn’t plan to dwell on the changes in Lu Chen. He was thinking of having hidden guards investigate discreetly to see who was helping Lu Chen.

But now that he suspected Lu Chen’s changes might be related to his Princess Consort, he must directly remind Lu Chen.

Soon, a hidden guard brought Lu Chen to Prince Zhen Nan’s room. Upon entering the room, Lu Chen noticed that Prince Zhen Nan’s death qi had significantly reduced.

Lu Chen asked, "Father, are you feeling better?"

His diminished death qi evidently indicated that he had consumed the Heavenly Soul New Year Fruit. However, Lu Chen wondered to what extent this fruit could suppress the spirit evil qi.

With a smile, Prince Zhen Nan replied, "Much better. Now I can sit up by myself."

Lu Chen proactively asked, "I wonder, Father, what is it you require of me?"

In the next moment, Prince Zhen Nan’s expression turned extremely serious, "Chen’er, initially I didn’t plan to remind you, but for your safety and the continuation of Zhen Nan Prince Manor, I must caution you. Some magical techniques should not be used casually. You are still young; you might not grasp that certain magical techniques can drain a lot of vitality when used."

"Your mother passed away because she used certain magical techniques, and I don’t want to see you follow her path."

Upon hearing these words, Lu Chen immediately understood what Prince Zhen Nan was thinking. From the looks of it, Prince Zhen Nan believed his recent changes might be related to his mother.

Lu Chen then said, "Thank you for the reminder, Father. I will try to avoid using magical techniques whenever possible."

Prince Zhen Nan continued, "I won’t question your path to becoming a spirit martial artist, but since you have become one, from now on, let Zhao Yu guide you in martial arts."

Zhao Yu was the commander of the hidden guards, and Prince Zhen Nan trusted him. More importantly, Zhao Yu was a strong person of the Earth Realm. With him guiding Lu Chen, perhaps Lu Chen could travel further on this path.

Of course, the most crucial part of having a guide is avoiding the wrong path; the backlash from spirit evil can be unbearable for anyone. Prince Zhen Nan had already suffered from such backlash, experiencing unbearable pain, and he didn’t want his only lineage to endure this agony too.

Having a guide can significantly decrease the chance of mental deviation, thus reducing the probability of backlash from spirit evil.

Lu Chen responded, "Yes, Father."

"However... Father, my cultivation style might differ from that of typical spirit martial artists; maybe Commander Zhao’s cultivation method might not suit me."

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhen Nan instantly recalled that Lu Chen seemed to possess a dual cultivation technique.

Thus, even without using the training methods of spirit martial artists, Lu Chen could become stronger, and his path to power might even spare him some hardships.

Typically, when spirit martial artists channel spirit evil into their bodies, they endure intense pain. Remarkably, Lu Chen, an ordinary person, could engage in carnal activities with Bai Qingqing while channeling spirit evil, suggesting he felt no pain during this process, evidently due to the cultivation technique.

If this dual cultivation technique indeed alleviates the pain of channeling spirit evil, it would undoubtedly be an exceptional technique for Lu Chen—a top-tier technique in all of Dazhou and even the entire Spirit Evil World.

Then Prince Zhen Nan said, "Zhao Yu will guide you on some cultivation issues, but he won’t excessively interfere; you can cultivate entirely as you see fit."

"Additionally, I must remind you that once common people reach adulthood, it becomes incredibly difficult to become spirit martial artists, so you should know the importance of the dual cultivation technique you have."

Upon hearing Prince Zhen Nan’s words, Lu Chen realized Bai Qingqing might have reported last night’s events to Prince Zhen Nan, leading him to believe Lu Chen was practicing a dual cultivation technique.

Without arguing, Lu Chen directly said, "Yes, Father, I will definitely keep this technique secret from others."

Prince Zhen Nan sighed and said, "Even if you want to keep it secret from others, soon the news of you being a spirit martial artist will surely reach other factions, prompting them to investigate how you became one."

Since Zhen Nan Prince Manor had released so many people today, those with cultivation states could sense the spirit evil aura emanating from Lu Chen and were aware he had become a spirit martial artist. When these people leave, they are bound to reveal the news of Lu Chen’s transformation into a spirit martial artist.

Remember, enabling an ordinary person, especially an adult, to become a spirit martial artist without undergoing spirit evil testing was almost impossible in the past.

Prince Zhen Nan continued, "So for the time being, you should stay in Zhen Nan Prince Manor as much as possible, preferably while your realm isn’t very high yet, marry several concubines to continue the bloodline of Zhen Nan Prince Manor."

This...

Lu Chen hesitated for a moment. He indeed wished to remain in Zhen Nan Prince Manor and marry several women, then use the System of Lots of Sons and Lots of Blessings to grow stronger. Yet, unfortunately, the system didn’t accept just anyone.

Truth be told, Lu Chen didn’t wish to trouble regular women, for if ordinary women bore his offspring, it would bind them with causality. Eventually, Lu Chen might leave this world, making the fate of those children uncertain.

As for those Ancestors of the Strange, finding them would likely be no easy task.

Wait...

Lu Chen’s mind froze—how could he forget his identity? He was the Heir of Prince Zhen Nan, and now that Prince Zhen Nan had entrusted him with the King Seal, Zhen Nan Prince Manor belonged to him. Thus, he might as well write down the names of those Ancestors of the Strange and have the hidden guards investigate whether these ancestors exist in this world.

With this in mind, Lu Chen said to Prince Zhen Nan, "Father, ordinary people seemingly can’t conduct dual cultivation with me. My physique has undergone some changes and now needs someone with a similarly unique physique."

Upon hearing this, Prince Zhen Nan was momentarily stunned—unique physique? What unique physique?
