”Isn’t it supposed to be directly to the imperial palace of the Wujiu Kingdom？”
Xu Taiping was a bit confused.
Because in the letter sent to him by the Qingxuan Sect, this point was not mentioned. It only said that he should escort the Sixth Princess to the Wujiu Kingdom to meet the emperor of the Wujiu Kingdom.
”When agreeing to the peace talks originally, the emperor of the Wujiu Kingdom put forward three extremely harsh conditions.”
The Sixth Princess sighed, shook her head with a bitter smile and continued, “First, the person coming for the peace talks must be selected from among the several princes and princesses, and no other ministers can be brought, only three hundred bodyguards. Second, when going to the Wujiu Kingdom, it is necessary to pass through several cities designated by him. Third, it is necessary to defeat that Fan Qi on the Life and Death Arena of the Nuquan Village and only by carrying his head can one enter the imperial city.”
This is clearly to let Your Highness come here to die.
Xu Taiping frowned.
He suddenly understood the meaning of the words that Elder Yunye said when he left.
“Yes, just to get here, most of the imperial bodyguards responsible for protecting me have already been killed or injured. If it weren’t for meeting you, Taoist Priest, I’m afraid all of us would have died in the Mantuo Villa.
The Sixth Princess said with a somewhat miserable expression.
”Knowing this, why still agree？”
XuTaipingasked was puzzled.
“With hundreds of thousands of troops from the Wujiu Kingdom stationed on the border of the Baishu Kingdom, even if the conditions are harsher, we have to agree. And as long as I’m still alive, the emperor of the Wujiu Kingdom can’t go back on his word in front of the world and send troops to attack the Baishu Kingdom. So I can at least strive for one year of escape time for the people of the Baishu Kingdom.
The Sixth Princess said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Xu Taiping had a rough understanding of the matter and also made a judgment in his heart.
However, he still didn’t rush to agree to the Sixth Princess, but asked her a question.
“Does Your Highness know that according to the precepts of the Jiufu Xianlv Division, “we cultivators on the mountain are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Jianghu.”
Xu Taiping Quietly looked at the Sixth Princess.
“The Jiufu Xianlv Division actually has such a rule？”
The Sixth Princess was Stunned , a little at a loss.
Although she is of the royal family, she is not the crown prince. How could she know these precepts that the Jiufu restricts the cultivators on the mountain？ Even about the affairs on the mountain, she only learned about them during this journey.
“Then, then what should we do, Master?”
Seeing that the last straw of life was about to disappear, the Sixth Princess didn’t care about her manners anymore. She nervously propped her hands on the table and leaned forward to Xu Taiping and asked.
“Don’t worry.”
Xu Taiping shook his head.
“I have a way to avoid this precept, but after using this method, even I may not necessarily be able to defeat Fan Qi on the Life and Death Arena, so Your Highness should be prepared mentally.”
“Wh… what method？”
The Sixth Princess still had a nervous look on her face.
“Not using any means of cultivators, only fighting against Fan Qi with martial skills, and the Xianlv Division will not interfere.”
As he spoke, Xu Taiping stood up.
“Not using any cultivator means？”
Upon hearing this, the Sixth Princess was first stunned, and then she also stood up abruptly, shaking her head repeatedly and saying：
“Daozhang, this won’t do. My mother said that that human butcher Fan Qi is a natural warrior, and no one is his match in martial arts. Daozhang, you will die on the arena. Let’s think about it carefully and come up with other methods.”
No matter from which point of view, she didn’t want to see Xu Taiping in vain.
“Your Highness, if possible, sort out the life story of that Fan Qi and the martial skills he has cultivated into a dossier and have someone send it to my residence in two hours.”
The decision that Xu Taiping has made will not be changed.
After saying this, he didn’t explain to the Sixth Princess anymore, but directly walked towards the residence he had chosen.
It wasn’t that he deliberately ignored or looked down on the Sixth Princess. It was just that the time for daily meditation and practicing kung fu had come and couldn’t be delayed.
As for whether he would die on the arena.
How could he be that stupid? If he really couldn’t win, he would definitely use magic to leave. Violating the rules of the Immortal Law Department would at most result in a few years of confinement.
……
Two hours later.
“Hoo…”
Xu Taiping, who had circulated the Danxia Scripture for three large cycles, let out a long breath.
Because he had drunk a cup and a half of wine today, at this moment he was like someone who had been caught in a heavy rain, wet all over.
He circulated some true qi and, with a “boom,” forced all the sweat out of his body.
A cup and a half of gentian wine, two hours, three large cycles and in the environment of the mundane world. Your current cultivation speed should be able to barely catch up with that of the mysterious spirit bone.”
Fairy Lingyue evaluated Xu Taiping’s cultivation progress today.
“The spiritual energy in the mundane world is too turbid, and it takes more time to refine.”
Xu Taiping nodded slightly in his heart.
“And I always feel that my body has become much heavier, as if there is something pressing on me.”
As he moved his muscles and bones, he told Fairy Lingyue about his feelings of cultivating in the mundane world.
Fairy Lingyue naturally knew that turbid qi was heavier than spiritual energy.
You know, in some chaotic places with only turbid qi, if an ordinary person enters, their body might be directly crushed.
“Wait a minute, the pressure of turbid qi on the body…”
Fairy Lingyue suddenly thought of something.
”Taiping, do you want to try the emperor’s body-forging method in advance？”
Her eyes suddenly looked at Xu Taiping with a hint of excitement.
”Huh？ Didn’t Sister Lingyue say that we would practice it when we return to the Seventh Peak？”
Xu Taiping confirmed to Fairy Lingyue in surprise.
”This emperor’s body-forging method is also called the ‘Yan Emperor’s Oven Formula’. The body-forging method in it is divided into three parts, namely the Hammer Bone Chapter, the Pressure Point Chapter, and the Support the Heavens Chapter. The breathing method that cooperates with your set of ship-pressing iron comes from the Hammer Bone Chapter. What I want to tell you now comes from the Pressure Point Chapter.”
Fairy Lingyue explained to Xu Taiping.
”Could it be that this Pressure Point Chapter is related to turbid qi？”
Xu Taiping asked curiously.
Fairy Lingyue nodded with a smile and then continued：
“In the Pressure Point Chapter, there is a chapter called ‘Turbid Qi Presses Seven Points’. Through the guiding method described in this chapter, cultivators can allow the turbid qi to safely enter those acupoints. Then, they can use the weight of the turbid qi to press the acupoints. An acupoint filled with turbid qi can make your mind and acupoints bear the weight equivalent to three thousand catties. Its effect is far better than that of your use of ship-pressing iron. Moreover, the weight generated by the turbid qi pressing the acupoints can only be felt by you and your own body. If you want to be relieved the restriction of the turbid qi pressing the acupoints, it is also very simple. You just need to open the acupoints and guide that strand of turbid qi out of the body.”
