At the same time, Chen Yuan also possessed immense courage. Whether it was the divine blood of the Xiang family or the divine blood of the Qilin, both contained powerful forces, yet he was able to make the choice to merge them into one.

If it were someone else, they might not have possessed such courage.

Chen Yuan smiled faintly:

"The Yin Spirit has already reached the realm of perfection. The next step is to prepare to break through to the Yang Spirit. Once I break through to the Yang Spirit, I can rise up and avenge the senior's great feud."

His spirit refining had reached its peak, and his physical body was only a step away from entering the realm of great accomplishment in supernatural powers. The only thing he needed to do now was to kill Prince Zhennan, Nangong Lie.

Take the destiny from him and seek the opportunity for the Yang Spirit.

Furthermore, he needed to establish dominance in the South in one battle, control the Zhennan Army, take over the border defense, and guard against the southward invasion of the demon race. It could be said that he still had many things to do.

And all of this could not be done without Moro's help.

He felt that he could now contend with Nangong Lie, but whether he could kill him was still unknown. After all, Nangong Lie was also a formidable person, able to hold his own against Zhao Danqing, who wielded a celestial weapon, for a short time.

His strength was evident!

However, as long as Moro took action, everything could be settled!

The anger he had suppressed could also be released on this person.

Before, when he was at Mount Shu and discovered that Nangong Lie had betrayed the human race, his anger was actually very strong, but he still couldn't kill him then.

Confined by the current situation, he couldn't announce his identity to the outside world, to prevent this person from being cornered and directly opening the border, leading the demon race into the territory.

That's why he had been忍辱 (ren ru)忍辱 (ren ru) until now!

Now, his relatives and friends in the capital had already left, so even if he directly rebelled, it wouldn't be a big deal. As for Consort Yang and her son...

They were originally pawns, and now they had no value.

If they died... then they died.

Moreover, they might not necessarily die. The most likely outcome was that they would be directly imprisoned and locked up until they died.

"There is no time."

Hearing Chen Yuan say this, Moro slowly shook his head.

Chen Yuan felt that something was wrong, frowned slightly, and asked:

"Has anything changed?"

"In the few days that you were in seclusion, the Jianghu has changed. The Emperor wants to perform a ritual to Heaven and become the Human Emperor, and the entire Jianghu is in turmoil..."

Moro told the truth about what Yang Huatian had said.

Chen Yuan's reaction was the same as Chu Changfeng's when he first heard the news.

Was Jingtai crazy?

Didn't he know his own capabilities, and yet he wanted to become the Human Emperor?

Was he Emperor Wu or Emperor Taizu of Chu?

A mere emperor who inherited the throne had actually turned the situation of the world into such a state, secretly manipulating the demonic forces to carry out blood sacrifices.

How many people had fallen into his hands, more than a million?

Where did such a person get the confidence to think that he could become the Human Emperor?

Who gave him the courage?

Chen Yuan even felt that Heaven was helping him. To do such a thing at this critical juncture was simply forcing the heroes of the world to rebel, and he wouldn't be able to gain any popular support.

"When does Jingtai plan to perform the ritual to Heaven?"

"In five days."

"According to Senior's words, all the forces in the world are reacting fiercely. I'm afraid Jingtai won't be able to perform the ritual to Heaven so smoothly. Our Dao God Palace can sit back and reap the benefits."

A big event also meant danger. If they could avoid participating and enjoy the fruits of others' labor, that would naturally be a good thing. Of course, the prerequisite was that Jingtai didn't succeed.

Otherwise, with the destiny of the nation on his shoulders, the title of Human Emperor, and decades of incense power, Jingtai might be able to possess extremely strong power, perhaps even comparable to an immortal.

"No, the Dao God Palace must also get involved this time." Moro slowly shook his head.

"Why?"

"Firstly, the world is already in a state of great turmoil. This ritual to Heaven is the turning point. If you want to occupy Shu Prefecture, you must first have a righteous cause.

Moreover, the Dao God Palace can also reveal itself to the world. This is a good opportunity.

Secondly, the ritual to Heaven is no small matter. Once Jingtai succeeds, he will become a great threat. Even if the Sima family doesn't suppress the entire world, they will still be able to firmly control half of the country.

Once this happens, it will be even more difficult to replace the Sima family in the future. We cannot place our hopes on others; we can only rely on ourselves.

You and I are the only ones who know that Jingtai is the Unborn Old Ancestor. Announcing it to the world now is the best opportunity. Once Jingtai eliminates the evidence afterward, it will be difficult to prove it again.

And... there is another reason why we must do it."

"What reason?"

Seeing Moro speak so solemnly, Chen Yuan couldn't help but frown.

"In order to win over the Li family and better control the military, so as to cope with the upcoming troubled times, Jingtai has already issued an imperial decree to take Li Hongshuang as a consort."

"What!"

Chen Yuan's brow furrowed instantly, and a hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes.

It wasn't that he had any thoughts about Li Hongshuang, but because of Jiang He. If Jingtai took a consort, Jiang He would definitely take action. If he took action, how could Chen Yuan stand by?

From his weakness to the present, Jiang He had been his backer many times. If it weren't for him, Chen Yuan might have already died at the hands of the Qingyun Sword Sect and the Yun family.

It was because of him that Chen Yuan was able to act unscrupulously in Qingzhou and expand his power.

After their cultivations became more equal, they regarded each other as brothers. With just one word from Chen Yuan, Jiang He would put down his own affairs and help him kill Song Lun in Liangshan.

He helped him destroy the Three Absolutes Sect and went with him to Mount Shu to seek opportunities!

This wasn't because Chen Yuan had paid any price. In fact, from beginning to end, Chen Yuan only had to say one word, and Jiang He would directly agree, even if it was extremely dangerous, he wouldn't hesitate.

Now, Jiang He was going to make a big scene in the capital. How could he be absent?

They had agreed that Chen Yuan would help him go to the capital to snatch back Li Hongshuang.

Therefore, Chen Yuan would definitely not stand by and watch. He had to take action. Similarly, he believed that the Dao Lords of the Dao God Palace would also do the same. The Dao God Palace's principle was equivalent exchange.

But they were mostly friends of over a hundred years. They had layered favors upon favors, and giving benefits had long become a formality. One word was enough.

Moreover, even if they put aside these things, his sister-in-law Li Hongshuang had always treated him well and had helped him before, such as when Chen Yuan confronted Jingtai in the Golden Luan Hall.

It was Li Hongshuang who pleaded with Li Kuangxiu, coupled with Gu Tianqiong's intervention, that allowed Jingtai to step down. Otherwise, that would have been the time when all pretense was dropped.

In short, he had to save Li Hongshuang.

In addition to saving Li Hongshuang, he also had to accomplish his own goals, such as... killing Jingtai and collecting his precious purple destiny, such as, gaining prestige and officially starting a rebellion!

And the biggest reason was still destiny!

What he said before about sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight didn't mean that he wouldn't go to the capital. In fact, just the destiny on his body was enough to make Chen Yuan go and take care of it.

To prevent Jingtai from dying at the hands of others!

The destiny on Jingtai's body was purple, which was completely different from other children of destiny. The Destiny Altar even manifested a strong devouring force when it first saw Jingtai.

This all meant that the destiny on Jingtai's body was extraordinary!

At least, it was the first time he had encountered the Destiny Altar reacting, so he couldn't let this guy go no matter what. Moreover, he had promised those million Yin souls that he would seek justice for them.

Having reached his level, every word and action had to be in line with his heart, otherwise, it could create loopholes in his state of mind, which would be detrimental to his cultivation.

"I understand."

Many thoughts flashed through Chen Yuan's mind, and finally, he returned to silence and nodded expressionlessly.

"This time, Jingtai openly announced to the world that he would perform a ritual to Heaven. He must have anticipated the reaction of the heroes of the world. This trip is not safe. This monk predicts that the people of Lingshan may intervene."

Moro said with a solemn expression.

"Then what about Senior's identity?"

Chen Yuan frowned. If Moro couldn't take action, this trip would really be difficult.

"This monk's cultivation has basically recovered more than half. Let it be revealed then. The methods under the capital can't be hidden for long anyway."

Obviously, he was prepared.

"Okay, in that case, let's leave."

Chen Yuan stood up and erased all his traces.

He really wanted to directly destroy the Unborn Sect's lair, but if he did, Jingtai would easily discover it and prepare in advance. Therefore, he had to take action on this place again on the day Jingtai fell!

"Good."

Moro thought the same way. With a wave of his hand, he directly constructed an illusion in place, restoring the previous scene. Even if it didn't last long, it could at least hide it for a few days.

Chen Yuan was very safe when he came in, and he was even safer when he left.

Unlike Chen Yuan, he had already explored the surrounding area and sensed the power of this place. There were two Yang Transformation realm cultivators who were meditating and cultivating.

There were more than ten Dan realm grandmasters and dozens of Profound realm warriors who were busy with their work.

And they had one thing in common, which was that... they were basically all raised up using the Blood Pill secret technique.

Outside of Soul Severing Valley.

Chen Yuan walked out of the void, glanced at the scene behind him, a hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes, and then quickly disappeared. He looked at Moro beside him and asked:

"Senior, have you ever seen this kind of incense power?"

When he came out, he had already asked, and Moro had also discovered the things in those secret rooms, so he asked this question.

A hint of contemplation flashed in Moro's eyes, and after a long silence, he said:

"This path is somewhat similar to Lingshan, using incense power to enhance strength and build secret Buddhist kingdoms."

"Compared to the orthodox path of cultivation?"

"In the end, it's just a reflection in the mirror. Martial arts cultivates oneself, but incense power comes from others. There are too many constraints and hidden dangers. Jingtai's cultivation of this path is probably because he has no hope in martial arts, so he can only seek another way.

But... I don't know where he found such a wicked technique."

There was some contemplation in Moro's eyes.

Even Lingshan's incense power was very different from Jingtai's, and it was very different from the orthodox path of cultivation in the human world. There had never been such a thing in history.

But to say that Jingtai's talent could create a path of cultivation out of thin air was even more impossible. Therefore, he was very curious about this matter.

"When he's on the verge of death, I'll ask him in person." Chen Yuan smiled faintly.

"Good."

...

...

After leaving Soul Severing Valley, the first thing Chen Yuan did was to contact Jiang He, using the Heavenly Book's starlight to light it up and transmit a sentence:

"Old Jiang, I'm out of seclusion!"

Soon, Jiang He's voice came out:

"Good."

"Don't worry about your sister-in-law. I said before that we would storm the capital together and snatch your woman. Now is the time for me to fulfill my promise. Li Kuangxiu is your father-in-law after all.

I'll take action then!"

"No need, I will personally send him on his way."

"That's good too. You adjust your state first. At that time, we'll go to the capital together!"

"Good!"

On the top of Mount Shu, Jiang He looked at the Heavenly Book in his hand and a smile appeared on his lips. He really didn't misjudge him. It wasn't in vain that he helped him these past few years.

Chen Yuan didn't talk to Jiang He too much. After expressing his attitude, he cut off contact with him. After all, Moro had already told him everything he needed to know.

Asking more wouldn't reveal anything more.

There was no need to catch up either. It was only a few days of seclusion, not a long time since they last met.

They could say whatever they wanted on the way to the capital later.

His only regret was that this short time was not enough to kill Nangong Lie. There were only a few days left until the ritual to Heaven. After deducting the preparation and travel time, there wasn't much time left.

He could only let Nangong Lie live a few more days.

But his head had already been targeted. The first one he would kill when he returned from the capital would be him!

He took a deep breath and began to contact Su Ziyue again, telling him that he was out of seclusion and asking him to tell the others in the Dao God Palace.

At the same time, he ordered them to be ready to start a rebellion at any time.

But as soon as he said this, he only received one sentence from Su Ziyue.

He said that someone claiming to be his uncle had come before and asked him to go to Fallen Dust Mountain, Chen Family Village to find him after he came out of seclusion, saying that he had something to tell him.

Chen Yuan frowned immediately, and a faint sense of foreboding arose in his heart.

Fallen Dust Mountain, Chen Family Village, although he had only been to this place once, he was not unfamiliar with it, because his uncle Wu Daozi lived in seclusion there.

But when he asked Su Ziyue, she didn't know what was going on.

After casually admonishing him a few times, Chen Yuan didn't hesitate and directly went to Fallen Dust Mountain. Only he knew Chen Huaiyi's identity, but now he had actively revealed his identity to Su Ziyue, so something big must have happened!

Soul Severing Valley was also in Shu Province, and Chen Yuan was not too far from Fallen Dust Mountain. He arrived at Fallen Dust Mountain in only half a day, without stopping, and went straight to Chen Family Village.

But when he arrived at Chen Family Village and saw the scene below, his pupils shrank deeply and his face was full of killing intent, because the smoke from the chimneys that he had once seen had disappeared without a trace, replaced by a pile of ruins and a huge palm print.

Someone... had destroyed this place!

Coming to the back mountain of Chen Family Village again, this place had also changed drastically. The lake was divided into two sections, the ground had countless cracks, and a broken boat was piled up by the lake.

The old man who used to sit on the boat fishing had disappeared without a trace...

Chen Huaiyi raised his head and glanced at Chen Yuan, calmly walked up to him, and slowly said:

"Out of seclusion?"

"Yes."

"The Wind Tribulation should have been overcome, right?"

"Overcome."

"Hmm..."

The two suddenly fell silent. Chen Yuan pondered for a moment and slowly asked:

"Who did it?"

Chen Huaiyi took a breath:

"When I came here before, I saw two blood characters left by Wu Daozi hidden in the void."

"Who?"

"The imperial court."

Hearing this, Chen Yuan raised his head, his eyes were extremely indifferent, and he nodded slightly.

At this moment, Chen Yuan had another reason to take action, which was revenge!

He didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen to him, but since it had already happened, he only had one path to take, which was revenge.

Otherwise, there would be loopholes in his state of mind.

Chen Yuan traveled here and accepted all of the original owner's memories, which was equivalent to fusion. He personally experienced the original body's life, and later, after the heavenly secrets were broken, his perception became deeper.

And in the original body's life, his uncle Wu Daozi was undoubtedly an extremely important person.

It was him who raised Chen Yuan, and that alone was enough to outweigh thousands of words.

As Chen Yuan's cultivation strength increased, he himself was a little unclear whether he was a traveler from another world or had awakened his past life memories.

Because he found that many things in this world were very similar to those in his previous world.

It was hard to describe this as a coincidence.

If it was explained by the former, Wu Daozi's kindness to him was also very great, but it was not impossible to repay, but if it was the latter explanation.

Then the kindness was too great.

The greatest thing in the world is the kindness of raising someone!

"It's not clear who came from the imperial court, but Wu Daozi should still retain some strength, and with the Chen Family's broken spear here, anyone below the True Monarch who comes will die.

But based on the current situation, that's not the case. There must be Yang Spirit True Monarchs who came, and more than one."

Chen Huaiyi looked at the ruins in front of him and said in a deep voice.

Chen Yuan turned his head and slowly said:

"Then kill all the True Monarchs of the imperial court. Sima Che, Puxian, Li Kuangxiu, Gu Tianqiong, they took action, so they should pay with their lives."

"I heard that Gu Tianqiong valued you very much before."

Chen Huaiyi's eyes turned to Chen Yuan.

"What he values is a dog who submits to the Sima family, not me. Moreover, the official positions on my body were all obtained by my own merits. Some guidance and kindness cannot make up for these grievances. When the time comes, I'll just give him a quick death."

"Can you kill him?"

"I have my own ways."

"Okay, I will also take action at that time. Wu Daozi raised you, and this place is also where the families of the Chen Family's soldiers who died for the Chen family lived. I didn't take good care of them, which is my fault."

"The people of the imperial court don't have any morals and kill innocent people, then..." Chen Yuan suddenly showed a cold smile on the corner of his mouth and said to himself:

"At that time, I will use the lives of the entire Sima family to repay these people in Chen Family Village. Killing people to pay with their lives has always been the case. I will take on this justice as well."

Since Chen Yuan had been in a high position, his actions were not as brutal as before. Everything was handled by the people below, but now, he really wanted to destroy all the people in the Sima family.

Old, weak, women, and children, none will be spared!

As for Jingtai, it would be best to cut him into pieces alive...

"These days, I've been thinking about a problem."

"What?"

Chen Yuan's gaze shifted.
