Chapter 99

The wilderness is far from the sea, and it would normally take a caravan half a year to reach it. However, the ancient dust dragon armor can fly, and its flying speed is quite fast. Even so, it still takes three days.

The dragon armor itself cannot absorb or expel spiritual energy, unlike the five divine swords that Liu Yu and others have. Flying at high speed consumes a lot of spiritual energy. Although he swallowed a spiritual crystal, the spiritual energy was slowly digested and integrated into the armor itself, making it more solid and spiritual, which means it was consumed. To fly, he needed to replenish the spiritual liquid.

After flying for a day, he landed at night, set up a spirit-gathering array with beast soul stones, and placed the Xuanwu egg on top. Immediately, the array was filled with spiritual energy. Then he inserted eighteen Heavenly Dragon Spirit-Gathering Flags and placed a jade bowl in the center.

This jade bowl was obtained from Yu Hanlu and was specifically used to hold spiritual liquid.

The array was filled with mist, which gathered in the jade bowl. By the time it was almost dawn, the jade bowl already contained more than ten drops of spiritual liquid, about half a bowl. He poured it all onto the dragon armor, and immediately the armor was filled with spiritual energy, allowing him to continue flying.

With the beast soul stones, Heavenly Dragon Spirit-Gathering Flags, and Xuanwu egg, setting up the spirit-gathering array was very convenient and could be done anytime and anywhere.

Of course, others without an altar space could not carry so many beast soul stones and could not do what he did.

He was reluctant to use the spiritual crystals for flying, so he temporarily landed to manufacture spiritual liquid.

Spiritual liquid is extremely precious, with each drop costing thousands or even tens of thousands, and it is hard to find in the market. This time, he spent over a hundred thousand.

"No wonder few people fly. Even if they have flying magical treasures, they still walk. They simply can't afford to fly. Even experts at the Dao Realm Seventh Transformation would not choose to fly unless absolutely necessary, as the consumption of spiritual energy is too great," Gu Chensha calculated, feeling the pain.

After dismantling the spirit-gathering array, he flew again. Three days later, he arrived at the sea.

He slowly landed, feeling the solid ground beneath his feet. Looking at the vast estate and the grand palace between the mountains and the sea, he had to admit that the eldest prince's palace was the most impressive among all the princes.

He was the eldest prince, born before Emperor Tianfu ascended the throne, and was far superior to the other princes.

Although he knew that this palace was far inferior to the World-Chaos Magic Ape Temple, Gu Chensha still did not dare to be careless. He took out another spiritual crystal and had the dragon armor wrap it to ensure that the armor would have spiritual energy to support it when encountering experts.

When the dragon armor is attacked, it will wriggle to resolve the force, which also consumes spiritual energy. The more intense the attack, the more spiritual energy is consumed. If the spiritual energy runs out, it will shrink into a ball and lose its defensive ability.

If it were ordinary Dao Realm First or Second Transformation experts, even if they obtained the dragon armor, they could not afford to maintain it. Although they can absorb spiritual energy at the Dao Realm, the energy absorbed into the body would blend into the blood and spread throughout the body. If a Dao Realm expert wants to obtain spiritual liquid, they must first prevent the spiritual energy from dispersing and store it in the dantian. After accumulating enough, they can force it out through the pores of their fingers, which takes about three days to refine one drop of spiritual liquid.

Everything was prepared, and he began to infiltrate the palace.

Although the dragon armor has the ability to become invisible and can conceal its scent, he still chose to infiltrate at night.

The night was dark and moonless. Gu Chensha easily bypassed the sentries and entered the eldest prince's palace.

The eldest prince's palace was filled with many experts, with visible and hidden sentries crisscrossing, leaving almost no blind spots. If the dragon armor did not have the ability to become invisible, it would have been difficult for Gu Chensha to infiltrate. Last time, he entered the World-Chaos Magic Ape Temple by impersonating a shadow priest, but now he could not do that.

"Truly wealthy." The palace was adorned with moonstones, brightly lit, and the floor was paved with jade. As soon as he entered, he could feel a faint spiritual energy floating around, and the entire palace was a massive spirit-gathering array.

"This is the Mountain-Sea Spirit-Bearing Formation. Between the mountains and the sea, it borrows the stability of the mountains and the surging of the sea, with various treasures suppressing it. Living in the central array eye can nurture a divine fetus. Of course, this is an exaggerated statement, but this formation is no small matter, and its construction is even more complex than my Xuanwu's emergence from the sea," Gu Chensha observed the surroundings and noticed some details.

In fact, before coming, he had also sought information about the eldest prince's palace from Long Yuyun. Of course, Long Yuyun did not know where her relatives were imprisoned, and the eldest prince's secrets were impossible to probe. However, she did know some basic information about the layout.

"Right!" He slowly searched but did not find the place of imprisonment. The palace was vast, and even if he searched for ten or eight days, he might not find everything. Gu Chensha was not in a hurry. As he walked, he saw a grand hall, the Holy Hall, and felt a surge of joy deep in his heart.

He knew exactly what was inside the Holy Hall.

It was where the emperor's edicts, imperial decrees, and rewards to the princes were enshrined. Although they had no practical use, they were a supreme honor.

"The eldest prince has received the most rewards, with a pile of edicts and decrees. I need to perform a sacrifice to extract the imperial aura, which will certainly elevate the Sun-Moon Altar to a more divine level. Besides, I might even obtain the fourth form of Sun-Moon Radiance, 'Sun-Moon Dragon.'" Gu Chensha's thoughts raced, and he hid at the door, waiting for the servants to clean. Sure enough, he saw the edicts and decrees on the shelves, with incense offerings.

Edicts are not important magical treasures; they are just symbols of honor. The guards are not overly strict, and no one would be so bored as to steal edicts, so the servants closed the door after cleaning.

Gu Chensha moved quickly, sweeping all the edicts and decrees into the altar space.

After advancing to the Dao Realm, he had a better grasp of sacrificial power and was confident that he could extract the imperial aura from the edicts without damaging them, and then return them to their original place after the sacrifice, as if nothing had happened.

"Gu Chensha sacrifices to the heavens..." He communicated his intention to the Sun-Moon Altar and began to recite silently.

Buzz...

The Sun-Moon Altar began to operate, and an indescribable force emerged from the edicts, solemn and profound, containing all things, rules, and the accumulated will of countless people, as well as a power that could twist fate and change the world.

This was the imperial aura.

When the emperor is angry, the world bleeds; when the emperor speaks, the nation trembles. People can go from poverty to wealth, from nobility to imprisonment, and their entire family can be executed.

This invisible power is much stronger than cultivation power, as it is a rule, a heart, and a Dao.

Sacrificing this power to the heavens naturally brings the best blessings.

Indeed, with so many edicts sacrificed, the imperial aura was very strong. The Sun-Moon Altar glowed, suddenly shook violently, and the space expanded. The sun and moon finally took shape, with yin and yang cycling, and boundless light pouring onto the altar, making him feel transparent.

Then, from the light, a supreme will descended, and countless dragons appeared in his mind, intertwining and transforming into a complex form, finally forming a martial technique, "Sun-Moon Dragon."

The fourth form of Sun-Moon Radiance, "Sun-Moon Dragon."

"Sun-Moon Dragon, it's actually this move!" Gu Chensha was overjoyed. The Sun-Moon Dragon has a complete set of body-strengthening methods. As he cultivates, his body transforms, first truly forming Sun-Moon Dragon scales, skin, tendons, bones, blood, and marrow... eventually transforming into a Sun-Moon Dragon body.

The strength of the Sun-Moon Dragon body is beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

More importantly, cultivating the Sun-Moon Dragon move makes his body stronger, with higher blood concentration, which is true Sun-Moon Dragon blood. Refining magical treasures is much stronger after cultivation.

The Dragon Transformation Liquid is also refined by many evil gods based on the ancient imperial Sun-Moon Dragon blood. Although it is not as pure as the Sun-Moon Dragon blood, it still contains significant nourishment. Gu Chensha will cultivate the Sun-Moon Dragon move faster using the Dragon Transformation Liquid.

Heavenly Dew, although a rare item bestowed by the Heavenly Dao, is also used to nourish the Sun-Moon Dragon blood. Ancient emperors sacrificed evil people to obtain Heavenly Dew, consumed it, and operated the Sun-Moon Dragon, transforming into Sun-Moon Dragon blood.

The effect of Sun-Moon Dragon blood is even greater than that of Heavenly Dew.

The emperor, known as the True Dragon Emperor, has a lifelong dream of transforming from a true dragon to a Sun-Moon Dragon, then evolving into a Heaven-Earth Dragon, and finally reaching an unprecedented realm, the Dragon of All Beings.

In reality, few ancient emperors achieved the Sun-Moon Dragon, and none achieved the Heaven-Earth Dragon.

However, the Sun-Moon Dragon move must be cultivated on the Sun-Moon Altar to achieve great success. Without the Sun-Moon Altar, it can only achieve minor success and cannot form a true Sun-Moon Dragon body.

Now, with the support of so many edicts and the imperial aura, the Sun-Moon Altar has successfully evolved and learned the Sun-Moon Dragon move. Gu Chensha felt that this journey was not in vain.

He carefully placed the edicts back, but made a slight noise in the room.

The servants outside heard it and immediately came to search, but found nothing missing or out of place. He took the opportunity to slip out and continue searching for the place of imprisonment.

However, after searching for a long time, he found no clues.

"Where could it be? According to the Mountain-Sea Spirit-Bearing Formation, the prison should be at the boundary of the sea and sky to quickly dissipate the resentment into the sea. The prison is a filthy place with heavy resentment, and its location must be carefully chosen, or it will disrupt the entire formation and lose its effect, turning good feng shui into a bad place." Gu Chensha entered the Sun-Moon Altar space to observe the surroundings.

He searched the boundary of the sea and sky but found no prison, which was strange.

"Could it be that they are not imprisoned here?"

He was somewhat doubtful.

Searching all night, he found no clues.

In the early morning, as the sun rose and the mountains and sea were bright, he observed again in the Sun-Moon Altar and suddenly noticed extremely dense black energy in the center of the palace, forming a mass, incredibly evil.

"What?" He stepped out of the Sun-Moon Altar and saw no black energy, only bright sunlight.

But when he entered the Sun-Moon Altar again, he saw the black energy.

He immediately understood: "The Sun-Moon Altar has the ability to detect evil. Any evil thing, when observed in the Sun-Moon Altar, cannot hide. I didn't expect the Sun-Moon Altar to have this ability after taking shape."
