Chapter 0975 New Stage
Because the power of the soul was much stronger than before, Qin Chu felt tired after practicing for four months.
After practicing for four months, Qin Chu raised his cultivation to the late stage of the sixth-level Saint King, but it was still a little distance away from the peak. The higher the level of cultivation, the more energy is needed, unlike before, when he could improve his cultivation by one level in three months after practicing for a period of time.
Without insisting on practicing, Qin Chu stood up, shook the token of the Void Spirit Tower, and then left the Void Spirit Tower.
When he was teleported to the Void Spirit Palace, Qin Chu saw Zhou Yuanqing, whom he had not seen for a while.
"Master Qin, I haven't seen you for a while." Zhou Yuanqing greeted him. She and Qin Chu had indeed not seen each other for a while, but she knew Qin Chu's affairs. As a Saint King Realm top-grade alchemist, it can be said that as long as Qin Chu did not do anything too extreme, no matter who was in power, he would pay attention to Qin Chu.
"It's been a while since we last met. Princess, are you going to practice?" Qin Chu asked.
"Yes, I plan to go in and practice, and also to calm myself down." Zhou Yuanqing nodded. Recently, the competition in the imperial capital has been very fierce. She is getting more and more exhausted, so she plans to calm herself down.
"Then let's have tea together when we have time." Qin Chu said polite words. He doesn't like socializing at all.
Nodding to Qin Chu, Zhou Yuanqing teleported to the Void Spirit Tower.
Looking at Zhou Yuanqing leaving, Qin Chu understood that because of the difference between men and women, Zhou Yuanqing was destined to work in vain, but she didn't know it, which was quite sad.
After leaving the Void Spirit Tower, Qin Chu returned to the mansion.
After communicating with Shi Qingfei, Qin Chu knew that everything was stable. Nothing major happened in the past four months, and Teng Yuan did not move. After being beaten by Empress Wu, Teng Yuan had to restrain himself even if he wanted to obtain the Holy King Pill.
Zhou Lie did not make any moves, mainly because he had taboos. He did not dare to anger his father. Now he was accumulating momentum, waiting for an explosion, an opportunity to be valued. He also had a sense of crisis now, because the war prince Zhou Yuanxing had opened a mansion. When Zhou Yuanxing returned, he would enter the sight of the old generation of the royal family.
The emperors of the Great Zhou royal family were divided into two generations. The first generation was the brothers of the martial emperor Zhou Zhentian, such as Zhou Zhenshan. In addition to Zhou Zhenshan, there were several others; the other was the second generation, which was the same generation as the emperor Zhou Lu, such as Zhou Lie, and Zhou Zheng, the steward of the Xuling Palace. This generation had less say than the emperors of Zhou Zhenshan's generation. After all, the seniority was different, and the development time was also different. Now Zhou Lie wanted to gain the recognition of these people.
The servants prepared wine and food. Qin Chu and Shi Qingfei chatted while eating. As for Shi Qingyan, she returned to Lingyao Mountain. After all, she was still the peak master of Shuangyue Peak.
"Husband, have a good rest. Continuous practice is also tiring." Shi Qingfei looked at Qin Chu and said.
"I understand. I'll take a break first, and then go to the Heaven Burial Coffin to raise my cultivation to the peak of the sixth-level Saint King, and then slowly settle down." Qin Chu said. The auxiliary effect of the Heaven Burial Coffin is not as good as that of the Void Spirit Tower, and the soul pressure is also small.
Shi Qingfei nodded. She felt that it was okay for Qin Chu to rest after reaching the bottleneck of his current level.
After a night's rest, Qin Chu gave Shi Qingfei some pills and asked her to go to the Top-grade Pill Pavilion to replenish them, and then entered the Heaven Burial Coffin to practice.
After practicing in the Heaven Burial Coffin for nearly a month, Qin Chu raised his cultivation to the peak of the sixth-level Saint King as he wished. The rest was to settle down and polish his cultivation.
After resting at home for a day, Qin Chu went to the Top-grade Pill Pavilion to take a look, and then went to Yayuan, and took the teleportation array to the inner courtyard of the palace.
"The peak of the sixth-level Saint King, it seems that you have worked very hard in the past few months!" Looking at Qin Chu's cultivation, Queen Wu did not blame Qin Chu for coming late, because she was sure that Qin Chu had been working hard during this period, otherwise his cultivation would not have improved so quickly.
"This world is very chaotic, and only when you have the ability can you feel at ease." Qin Chu said.
"It's not far from the high-level Saint King." After looking at Qin Chu again, Empress Wu said. She was surprised at Qin Chu's cultivation speed. She remembered that other royal members entered the Void Spirit Tower to cultivate. During the primary Saint King period, they could reach two levels in one year. It was difficult to reach the intermediate Saint King, but Qin Chu did it. ..
After communicating with Empress Wu for a while, Qin Chu left the palace. The situation was stable, so he could just polish his cultivation steadily.
Qin Chu polished his cultivation in the mansion for two months. News came from the border that the Tianlei Dynasty had withdrawn its troops and agreed with the Great Zhou Dynasty to have a battle of masters. The location was Tianhu City, a border city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the time was three months later.
The legion war ended and the war entered a new stage. Zhou Yuanshuo and Zhou Yuanxing also returned to the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Empress Wu held a grand celebration banquet for the two and also gave heavy rewards to the soldiers of the eighteen border cities. In addition, the reward for Zhou Yuanshuo was much greater than that for Zhou Yuanxing, which made the older generation of the royal family very much approve of Empress Wu, because they felt that Empress Wu was broad-minded and did not attribute the credit that belonged to Zhou Yuanshuo to Zhou Yuanxing, which was fair. Of course, Zhou Yuanxing's credit was also great, otherwise he would not have been given the title of Prince Zhan.
In fact, Empress Wu did value Zhou Yuanshuo. Moreover, it was not important to her whether Zhou Yuanshuo's status and power were great. Zhou Yuanshuo did not compete for the position of crown prince. Even if Zhou Yuanshuo came to power in the future, he could protect Zhou Yuanxing's life.
Zhou Yuanxing had matured a lot. His Prince Zhan's Mansion was well managed by Wu Chengfeng, and it was now one of the forces of the Great Zhou Dynasty, because with the help of Zhou Yuanshuo, some loyal soldiers were brought back from the border, which was all strength.
After returning to the imperial capital, Zhou Yuanshuo and Zhou Yuanxing found Qin Chu.
Seeing Qin Chu's cultivation, Zhou Yuanshuo and Zhou Yuanxing were both very surprised.
"Qin Chu, what strong medicine did you take?" Zhou Yuanxing looked Qin Chu up and down.
"I am a top-grade alchemist in the Saint King Realm, so I naturally have strong medicine to take. However, my cultivation level has improved quickly because I practiced in the Void Spirit Tower." Looking at Zhou Yuanxing, Qin Chu said with a smile. He felt that in the Great Zhou Dynasty, almost no one knew that Zhou Yuanxing was not the son of the queen, but these were not important. The relationship between the two was very real.
"I must drink to my heart's content today. You don't know that in the past two years, there has been a small battle every three days and a big battle every ten days. It is really tiring. I don't know how Brother Shuo Huang carried it in the past." There was nothing on the battlefield. When he returned to the Great Zhou Imperial Capital, Zhou Yuanxing had some feelings.
"Qin Chu, I have seen your battles. You have entered the advanced Saint King level. You are definitely the best among the Saint Kings. You can also be regarded as having the capital to settle down." Zhou Yuanshuo raised his glass to Qin Chu. He was happy for Qin Chu.
"Not yet. I still need to work harder!" Qin Chu shook his head. His current goal was to become a Great Sage. He felt that with the help of Queen Wu, it should not be difficult to become a Great Sage. Only then would he have the capital to make a living.
