Cultivation Helped by Ancestors-Chapter 390 - 314: A Big Fish (4K)

The next day, Empress Dowager Li and Empress Qi hosted a small family banquet, inviting the wives of many meritorious ministers from the front line.

Qi Yuhua, as the sister of the Empress, was also invited.

At this time, Zhang Jian had successfully cultivated the Golden Lotus Hidden Breath Technique to the Primordial Spirit stage.

This innate divine technique had immense potential.

Zhang Jian noticed that the Pure Yang level was not its limit.

He condensed a seven-colored golden lotus and embedded it into Qi Yuhua's body, then saw her life plate noticeably change, as if her aura transformed into that of an ordinary woman!

Seeing this, Zhang Jian examined her carefully again, allowing Qi Yuhua to enter the sedan with peace of mind!

Inside the sedan, Qi Yuhua still felt worried; ever since she learned she bore the Phoenix Destiny, she had been anxious.

She had heard the Empress from the Qi family mention more than once that the Daqian Royal Family never gave up looking for the Noble Lady Feng.

Zhang Jian stepped forward to reassure her.

"My lady, rest assured, your Phoenix Destiny life plate is already concealed, there will be no problems!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuhua finally felt slightly relieved.

After comforting her with a few words, Zhang Jian mounted his horse and led the way!

He cast his gaze over the depths of the Imperial Palace!

Only a few people knew about Qi Yuhua's Phoenix Destiny, aside from him, possibly only the Feng Ling Mountain God, Qi Yuhua herself, and the sole unstable factor, Qi Yuzhu.

The Empress Qi should not be so unwise.

At this point, Zhang Jian, with wings fully outspread, was not afraid of any unforeseen events.

The sedan stopped at the palace gate, and Qi Yuhua was led into the inner court by a palace female official.

Soon, after seeing Qi Yuhua enter the palace, he began his city patrol.

In his hand was the East Emperor's Treasure Mirror.

The Treasure Mirror revealed numerous dense light points, most of which were pure white. These were Dong Shen Temple cultivators and Court cultivators who had been 'registered' with him, but some were 'gray', or 'black'.

Labeled as gray meant suspicious and required Dong Shen Temple to track and verify.

Labeled as black required elimination.

With a single thought, Zhang Jian transmitted all the information directly to Jingming Daoist, who managed the central hub to handle these issues.

As for targets that were truly challenging to deal with, they required his personal intervention.

For now, Zhang Jian hadn't encountered any 'targets' that required his personal handling.

...

Meanwhile, in a luxurious and solemn courtyard in Central Jin Province, the Golden Maiden Sect Leader Saintess stood in the courtyard, her gaze far-reaching in the direction of Haojing City.

In her eyes, even though Haojing City's Dragon Qi diminished nowadays, the overwhelming power of the Dragon Qi still existed, though it was now ten times less than before. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Cultivators could already move freely and try to explore within, probing the depths of Daqian.

Liu Rui had already prepared herself.

However, the appearance of King Jun Golden Man thwarted all her steps.

But now, with Qianhai True Monarch carrying the King Jun Golden Man to the borders, Liu Rui saw hope again.

In her view, to capture the thief, first capture the king.

With Qianhai True Monarch holding the body of the King Jun Golden Man, now personally heading to the Beichu realm, it was clear that the intention was to do everything possible to defeat Beichu, reshape the Daqian Dragon Vein, and restore Daqian Dragon Qi.

Only with the Daqian Dragon Vein reshaped and the Dragon Qi stable could Qianhai True Monarch rest easy.

If Daqian were to collapse, due to the connection between this True Monarch and Daqian, it would inevitably backfire terribly.

Moreover, the backlash would not be minor.

Therefore, the numerous cultivation Dao lineages seeking to prevent the Saint King's ascension found the best strategy was to act against Daqian now.

As long as the heart of Haojing City was incised, Daqian would crumble on its own.

She couldn't believe that, in the face of Daqian's Destiny backlash, the Qianhai True Monarch would still possess much combat power.

If the Daqian Dragon Vein were realigned and the Dragon Qi barrier restored, the difficulty of taking action would increase several times over.

It was just that during this period, several batches of personnel sent by the Golden Maiden Sect to enter Haojing City had disappeared without a trace each time they entered, making Liu Rui very cautious about the hidden dangers within.

Liu Rui hesitated slightly.

"Could it be that I really wait to lose my master's message?"

In Liu Rui's eyes flashed a glimmer of light, but at this moment of impending revenge, her Dao Heart was somewhat unsettled.

Liu Rui knew that her master, the Golden Radiance Saint Mother, was still bickering with the old ancestors of various Immortal Sect Dao Lineages about how to join forces and divide the spoils, and they hadn't reached a consensus yet.

This might take more than a dozen days.

Of course, there were also hidden hands meddling from behind, striving to prevent each Immortal Sect from forming an alliance.

This inefficiency made Liu Rui anxious.

Her Dao Heart unsettled, she closed her eyes slightly, and moments later, a cold intent flickered in her eyes.

"If it truly can't be done, I must enter Haojing City myself to scout!"

She feared that if she waited until these old ancestors divided up the spoils, an accident might occur.

Her eyes flickered, as she now also held the title of Princess Zheng, as long as she was cautious, she believed it wouldn't be a significant problem.

...

At the Zhang Family Mansion, Zhang Jian held a 'copper token' the size of a toothpick in his hand, spinning it around.

A Rune wrapped in boundless Spiritual Light flowed before his eyes.

"Red City Technique"

Zhang Jian gazed at the toothpick 'Copper Sword' containing a special spell, having observed it for some time.

In fact, with Zhang Chang'an's aptitude, he could entirely be placed in a more powerful Immortal Sect.

But thinking of that "Vertical Earth Golden Light" Escape Technique, Zhang Jian pondered for a while before making up his mind.

"Trying it poses no harm!"

The Guangling Immortal Sect's strength was already considerable; if it was as he thought, all the better.
