dinary humans.But his body was extremely large, clad in armor that glittered with light.The soul jade above his forehead shone like a miniature sun, radiating an extremely intense blue light.At this t...Following the coordinates Qino provided, Fang Yu made his way there alone.

The residences of members of the royal family's secondary bloodline are mostly located in the southwest region of the Central Imperial Palace.

Fang Yu arrived in this area through a teleportation array and immediately activated the ability of the Flower of Concealment, entering a state of complete invisibility.

Following Qino's precise instructions, they gradually located Princess Lucen's residence.

The territory of the Imperial Palace is vast.

Therefore, although this area is said to be a gathering place for the residences of collateral bloodline members, in reality, there is a great distance between each residence.

Just like Lu Chen's mansion, there is only one within a radius of a hundred miles.

Fang Yu arrived before the manor's main gate and saw dozens of guards.

And surrounding the manor, there was a clearly discernible formation.

But Fang Yu didn't care; under the invisibility of the Hidden Flower, he didn't think he would be discovered.

So, he swaggered right in through the main gate.

A multitude of guards stood on either side, not even a hint of awareness.

As for the formations set up around the mansion, they didn't react at all.

In this way, Fang Yu successfully infiltrated Lu Chen's mansion.

There are many buildings in the mansion.

But, the vast majority are halls of unknown use.

Fang Yu walked directly to the depths of the mansion and discovered several secret rooms.

There were no cultivators inside the chamber.

Before the secret room, there stood a higher loft.

Above the attic, the first three floors were filled with all sorts of miscellaneous items...such as magic artifacts, weapons, and pills.

The innermost three layers house a scripture library, filled with numerous mystical and arcane manuals.

It is clear that Lu Chen is not currently at the residence.

Fang Yu thought for a moment, then walked into the attic.

He didn't have much interest in those magical artifacts or pills.

He walked straight to the fourth floor and browsed through the various spell books on the shelves.

After all, this is the demon realm. Cultivators here practice not with spiritual energy, but with nuclear energy.

He wanted to see how the cultivation techniques of the demon realm cultivators differed from those he had encountered in the past.

The mansion was eerily silent.

Besides dozens of guards at the gate, there were also two patrol squads inside the mansion.

Such a defense force can be said to be quite rigorous.

But, who could have expected... At this very moment, a cultivator has broken into the most treasured treasure pavilion of Princess Luchen, and is currently poring over those secret magical techniques belonging to the royal family!

……

Central Imperial Court, Southeastern Region.

A palace floated amidst the clouds, radiating brilliance and releasing phantom figures.

From afar, it resembles a giant elephant lying on the clouds, with an extremely powerful presence.

This is the residence of the Crown Prince Xianliu, a renowned member of the Main Bloodline and a strong contender for the position of Demon Emperor!

His palace was named the Giant Elephant Palace.

This name comes from the cultivation technique created by the prince of Xianliu. It was a divine skill personally bestowed upon the prince of Xianliu by the ancient Demon Emperor.

Ultimate Primordial Elephant Power!

The Xian Liu prince had been cultivating this divine skill since the very beginning of his cultivation.

Therefore, the giant elephant... has become his symbol!

At this moment, a golden scarab demon flew in from afar and arrived before the palace gate.

Two figures flashed out from the insect demon's body.

It is precisely the far-traveling Yuan Taishi and his subordinate.

"Greetings, Grand Tutor!"

Two guards in armor stood before the gate, bowing as they approached.

“I want to meet with Prince Xianliu.” Yuan Taishi stood at the door and said.

Two guards exchanged glances. One said, "Please wait a moment, sir. I'll go report to—"

Yuan Taishi nodded gently.

In a short while, the guard standing by the gate spoke, "Your Highness says that he also wishes to meet with the Grand Tutor. Please come in!"

"Good." Yuan Taishi stroked his beard and followed the guards into the palace.

……

The main hall was filled with celestial light and an ethereal mist.

A stalwart figure sat majestically upon the elevated throne at the front of the grand hall.

The figure was clad in a golden robe, wearing a crown upon its head. Its entire body was adorned with luminous gemstones that shimmered brilliantly.

He just sat there, yet he had an aura that could consume the world, quite terrifying!

Master Yuan and his subordinates were quickly brought into the hall.

"I have met His Royal Highness," Yuan Taishi bowed.

The figure on the high seat only then raised its head, revealing a face with sharp angles.

With exquisite features, one could say they are handsome.

There is a distinctive claw mark of the ancient Yao Huang clan on his forehead, and his eyes are a dull gray.

His countenance did not appear menacing.

But if you meet its gaze, you will feel the terrifying oppressive sensation of a ferocious spirit from the chaotic primal era!

This... is the Xianliu Prince!

When Yuan Taishi saw Xian Liu, the Crown Prince, he felt his heart tremble with awe.

The last time he saw Prince Xianliu was many years ago.

Back then, even the prince of the immortal sect couldn't have put this much pressure on him!

Now... the progress is amazing!

"Greetings, Grand Tutor," said Xianliu's prince, sitting upright and a slight curve to his lips. "I had just wished to meet with the Grand Tutor, yet here you are. Truly, I have my heart's desire."

"May I ask what is on your mind, Your Highness"sed an eyebrow slightly and retorted, "Do you think that as the Star Ancestor, I should sever my seven emotions and six desires""When I first entered the path of cultivation, I did hear a saying that...
