Chapter 97: Practicing the Royal Qi Array

"Mother's name is Qing Luo?"

Yang Qi saw the back of the envelope, his father's handwriting, and couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement, especially when he read the last sentence, "When you become the master of the entire Fertile Continent, I will appear before you again."

He was filled with a mix of emotions.

The master of the entire Fertile Continent was no small matter; it meant being the emperor of the entire Sacred Ancestor Dynasty.

The emperor of the Sacred Ancestor Dynasty was no ordinary figure. Although the entire Sacred Ancestor Dynasty had declined, there was still an emperor, who had been on the throne for over a thousand years. Even though he no longer attended court, the affairs of state were managed by princes and ministers, his authority still intimidated the five lakes and four seas, the eight desolates and six directions.

The emperor of the Sacred Ancestor Dynasty had profound cultivation, a legend even a thousand years ago.

In other words, he was a legendary expert a thousand years ago.

After a thousand years, it was unknown what level he had reached, but it was very likely that he had surpassed the legendary realm and entered the realm of the great sage, or even higher!

Yang Qi had almost understood the cultivation realms over these days. Above the Ninth Life Seizing Realm was the Legendary Realm. The Legendary Realm had many levels, each more difficult than the last.

Above the Legendary Realm was the Great Sage Realm.

The Great Sage Realm was the realm of sages.

In ancient times, when the demon race was rampant, some powerful beings opened up celestial realms and roamed between time and space, invincible, and were called Great Sages. This was an incredibly powerful realm.

As for what was above the Great Sage Realm, Yang Qi did not know.

In any case, to become the master of the entire Fertile Continent, he had to destroy the Sacred Ancestor Dynasty and slay the emperor.

This would require abilities on par with the ancient Great Sages.

"Who is my mother? Her status is so noble that I can only see her if I become the master of the entire continent? How could she be involved with our Yang family? Their statuses are like heaven and earth! Once I have cultivated to a certain level, I will go to the Floating Mountain to find my mother." Yang Qi was filled with many doubts. He waved the letter in his hand, and it burned up.

These letters involved family secrets, and Yang Zhan had already said to burn them immediately after reading.

Calming down, Yang Qi looked at the huge castle he lived in, the vast green waves outside, and the spiritual energy underground. In the center of the castle, the Royal Qi Array was operating.

This was what he was most interested in.

The Royal Qi Array was a sophisticated array composed entirely of qi, capable of refining the body, enhancing cultivation, expanding meridians, and cultivating a royal aura.

Over time, it could even change a person's character, cultivating a sense of kingship, broadening the mind, clarifying the spirit, increasing wisdom, and broadening the perspective, giving one a commanding presence like a king.

This was the great power of the Royal Qi Array.

Unfortunately, ordinary Life Seizing Realm experts could not form this array. Forming this array required many materials and a great deal of true qi.

Yang Qi had been studying for two months, and he had a basic understanding of the structure of the qi array.

During these days, he had also attended lectures at the academy, learning about array formations, and his understanding had greatly surpassed what it was before. He could even use various qi techniques, such as the Four Seasons Sword Technique, to form sword arrays and qi arrays, increasing their power by more than ten times.

Since he became an elite student, these two months had been a period of rapid progress.

The knowledge he had learned was ten or even a hundred times more than before.

The Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell Technique in his body had become even purer. Yang Qi even suspected that if he accumulated enough life essence, he could achieve the Second Life Seizing.

Cultivating in the "Royal Qi Array," he deeply felt the aura of the underground spiritual veins. The so-called heaven and earth spiritual energy existed both in the sky and underground. Cultivators chose places with dense spiritual veins to establish their residences, using qi techniques to absorb the underground spiritual energy for cultivation.

The Heaven Position Academy was the best at this.

The entire Heaven Position Academy was built in the center of the Fertile Continent, and deep underground was an endless huge spiritual vein, with surging spiritual energy. When Yang Qi used his qi technique to detect, he only felt an endless power surging in the depths of the earth. His qi technique was instantly shattered by the intense underground elemental energy storm.

He tried several times but got no results, so he gave up and focused on studying the Royal Qi Array.

Only in the elite academy was there a "Royal Qi Array," and ordinary students could not enter to cultivate. Yang Qi could not bring Liang Dong, Li He, and others to cultivate inside, as it would result in severe punishment if they were caught.

Therefore, he planned to create a small Royal Qi Array and set it up outside for Liang Dong and others to cultivate. With the help of the Royal Qi Array, these people would definitely make rapid progress, and advancing to the Life Seizing Realm would not be difficult.

"True essence of kingship, the way of the array, endless and unceasing."

Yang Qi sat in his castle, looking at the huge Royal Qi Array, silent for a long time. Suddenly, several milky white demon cores escaped from his ring. With a qi technique, these demon cores exploded, transforming into milky white qi streams that condensed into various shapes in front of him.

He no longer sealed his true qi, and the massive true qi rapidly circulated, almost equivalent to the combined power of more than a dozen Life Seizing Realm experts. In the center of the castle, the true qi surged, producing the sound of stormy waves crashing against rocks.

Boom, boom, boom...

A small Royal Qi Array was formed.

This was the result of Yang Qi's two months of studying array formations. Arrays were useful at any time. If one was an array expert, they could even form a micro-circulation of true qi arrays within their internal organs, muscles, and bones, making their body incredibly strong.

Moreover, demon cores were useful for setting up arrays.

The demon cores in Yang Qi's hand were from qi master-level demon beasts, obtained from the vampire horse bandit's treasure. After crushing them, they condensed into qi streams under the influence of his qi technique, beginning to generate a royal aura.

This small qi array started to continuously absorb the royal aura from the castle, growing stronger.

Even under the influence of Yang Qi's powerful true qi, the Royal Qi Array began to absorb the surging spiritual energy from the underground spiritual veins.

"Other Life Seizing Realm experts cannot control the underground spiritual energy, and their true qi would be shattered if it penetrated too deeply. However, my Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell Technique, which was born from suppressing hell, has a special control over the earth. Now, drawing from the spiritual veins to enhance my small Royal Qi Array is natural. Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell, Master of the Earth!"

Yang Qi suddenly activated the essence of the qi technique he had comprehended for a long time. A true qi-composed divine elephant appeared above his head, its long trunk penetrating the earth, fiercely drawing out the spiritual energy. If the experts in the academy saw this, they would be shocked because the spiritual energy drawn out by the divine elephant's trunk was tangible, like milk.

The concentration of this spiritual energy was unimaginable.

"Master of the Earth, Master of the Earth!"

As the Divine Elephant Imprisoning Hell Technique reached its peak, the true qi divine elephant actually roared these four words.

The Master of Hell was also the Master of the Earth.

The milky white underground spiritual energy was absorbed and completely infused into the Royal Qi Array. Yang Qi's small Royal Qi Array expanded, eventually enveloping the true qi divine elephant.

"I should store this qi array in my ring."

Yang Qi's true qi circulated again, and the Royal Qi Array entered his ring.

The ring contained an independent space, and in the depths of that space, the Royal Qi Array could be placed in the center without dissipating. Otherwise, if placed in a room, the space would be too large, and without Yang Qi's control, it would gradually dissipate, requiring re-formation, which would be very troublesome.

Continuously activating the qi array, absorbing the essence of the underground spiritual energy, and transforming it into a royal aura, it seemed that a king was about to be born in the ring.

"Alright, if I continue to condense, a strange array spirit might be born. I should be more restrained and take it out for Li He and others to cultivate."

Yang Qi stopped the array, his body flashed, and he left the elite academy, heading to the outer academy where the outer students lived.

The moment Yang Qi left his tower, in the depths of the elite academy, several similar towers, someone withdrew their gaze.

One of the gazes belonged to "Gu Fenxian," who had suffered a loss at Yang Qi's hands that day.

Around Gu Fenxian were several elite students who were present that day, all members of the Black Dragon Society. Their gazes were dark, as if they were plotting something.

"Gu Fenxian, we have secretly observed Yang Qi for more than two months. Have you noticed anything? I have a feeling that his strength is far more than what he shows. He must be hiding something," a Black Dragon Society member said. "This person is also talented. If we can recruit him into our Black Dragon Society, it's not impossible. However, judging by his character, he has refused many invitations over the past two months, showing ambition and unwillingness to submit to others. He will cause trouble for our Black Dragon Society in the future. It's better to eliminate him early. Moreover, the prince's current favorite, Yun Hailan, also hates him to the bone. We must eliminate him."

"How do we eliminate him?"

Gu Fenxian said viciously, "Can we assassinate him together? That's unlikely. He is now an elite student, and if he is killed, the academy is not foolish and will definitely investigate. If the charge of killing a fellow student is placed on us, even if the prince can protect us, we will likely have our martial arts completely disabled, and our lifelong cultivation will be wasted, which is worse than death."

"Don't worry, there are always ways. Many students die in our Heaven Position Academy every year. Can the academy investigate all of them? We can use others to kill him. Soon, there will be a major competition between the students of several academies. We can use the experts from other academies to do the job!"

A Black Dragon Society member said sinisterly.

"Right, our Black Dragon Society has been operating for many years, and we have people in other academies. This matter can definitely succeed..."

The Black Dragon Society elite students began to discuss...
