266: Empress Dalan

Jiang Chen also took a moment to glance at his status panel.

[Name: Jiang Chen]

[Fate: Martial Dao Saint Body]

[Divine Body: Great Void Ape Demon Body]

[Physical Body Cultivation: Heavenly Martial Realm First Layer]

[Spiritual Qi Cultivation: Heavenly Martial Realm Eighth Layer (680,000/9,000,000)]

[Divine Soul Cultivation: star realm Middle Stage]

[enemy killing value: 1,757]

[cultivation points: 0]

The martial arts he had mastered and some skills were all on another page, so Jiang Chen didn't bother checking them.

Instead, he focused on his cultivation.

Although the Great Void Ape Demon Body couldn't be used for the time being, it didn't mean Jiang Chen couldn't feel its power; it even manifested in his daily activities.

For instance, with an ordinary Physical Body, the amount of Body Tempering Qi one could store was proportional to their strength.

But for the current Jiang Chen, if needed, he could break the limit and directly mobilize over three million catties of Body Tempering Qi through his Cultivation Technique.

He could stack it to four million, or even five million catties!

This way, a single punch from Jiang Chen could strike with seven to eight million catties of force.

This could be considered a hidden effect.

Furthermore, Jiang Chen's physical defense had also been greatly enhanced; it was likely that ordinary Grade Seven Spiritual Artifacts could no longer harm him.

His Physical Body had stepped into the Heavenly Martial Realm First Layer, reaching three million catties.

If he wanted to break through to the Martial King Realm, he would need at least four million catties of strength.

Every hundred thousand catties of strength increased his Realm by one layer.

His spiritual power cultivation had already reached the Heavenly Martial Realm Eighth Layer; as long as he had enough cultivation points, he could keep breaking through.

He estimated that if he cleared out the demons in the Demon Cave below, he would likely reach the Martial King Realm level.

Although low-level demons wouldn't grant enemy killing value, they would still provide cultivation points as usual.

This ensured that, at the very least, Jiang Chen's future acquisition of cultivation points would not be restricted.

What surprised Jiang Chen most was his Divine Soul cultivation.

During this time, Jiang Chen hadn't paid much attention to his Divine Soul cultivation.

The Soul Devouring Ring on his hand operated on its own, refining the Soul power it absorbed and then channeling it into Jiang Chen's body.

The Yin Yang Life and Death Mirror could also absorb the power of heaven and earth, steadily increasing his Divine Soul cultivation.

Unbeknownst to him, his Divine Soul cultivation had actually reached the star realm Middle Stage.

Firefly Realm, star realm, Bright Moon Realm, Radiant Sun Realm.

Now, a Divine Soul cultivation at the star realm was already equivalent to the Heavenly Martial Realm level.

After this round, Jiang Chen had pretty much reached the Heavenly Martial Realm in all aspects!

"These seventeen hundred-plus enemy killing value are enough to open the martial arts scroll about four more times."

Jiang Chen thought to himself.

But now was not the time to open the martial arts scroll.

Even the strength he had just gained and the endless fiery energy in his body hadn't had a chance to be released.

He had originally thought about finding Lu Qian for some "deep communication."

But now, it seemed there was no opportunity for that.

As for Xue Lianyue, who was closest to him.

Jiang Chen wasn't familiar with her.

Naturally, it wasn't appropriate to make a move.

However, the top priority was to deal with the group of Martial King Realm experts charging toward the Great Lan Dynasty.

"Officer Xue, someone from the Zhao Family should have arrived at the Royal Capital. I'll go settle it first. You stay here and focus on setting up the formation."

Jiang Chen walked up to Xue Lianyue and said.

At this moment, Xue Lianyue was intently carving formation stones. Beside her lay many formation stones she had meticulously crafted.

Hearing Jiang Chen's voice, Xue Lianyue lifted her exquisite face. Because she was so engrossed, her hair was slightly disheveled, giving her a look of focused beauty.

"Oh... okay... wait, what? There are enemies!"

Xue Lianyue was stunned for a moment, her mind not yet catching up. When she heard Jiang Chen say enemies were heading for the Royal Capital, how could she stay calm?

She was part of the Vermilion Bird Imperial Guard.

Her duty was to protect the Empress in the Royal Capital and protect the capital itself.

Hearing that the Royal Capital was in danger, her instinctive reaction was to go there.

Moreover, the ones coming were from the Zhao Family.

"Don't worry. These two pills have a restorative effect on your Divine Soul."

As Jiang Chen spoke, he took out two soul essence pills and handed them to Xue Lianyue. After all, carving formation inscriptions also consumed Divine Soul energy.

The third Seal of the Soul Devouring Ring had also been opened.

This meant it could autonomously condense high-quality soul essence pills.

These high-quality soul essence pills likely corresponded to Grade Six Medicinal Pills. In the past, they might have seemed extraordinary, but now, they appeared quite ordinary to him.

However, for people like Xue Lianyue, whose Divine Soul cultivation wasn't strong, a Grade Six soul essence pill was a massive help.

To them, it was practically a Divine Pill!

Medicinal Pills that could directly increase Divine Soul strength were very rare.

Xue Lianyue took the pills from Jiang Chen's hand.

"This..."

Although Xue Lianyue thought about going with Jiang Chen to look out for each other, on second thought, it seemed unnecessary.

"Thank you, Lord Jiang... Lord Jiang, please be careful and don't get hurt."

Xue Lianyue said immediately.

Jiang Chen had only come to give her a heads-up.

He waved his hand.

Then he leaped up and charged toward the Royal Capital.

Meanwhile, Zhao Chongyang had already arrived above the Royal Capital of the Great Lan Dynasty with his Blood Kill Guards.

Right above the Imperial Palace hall.

The rage of his son's murder had caused Zhao Chongyang to completely lose his mind.

At this moment, he only wanted the entire Great Lan Dynasty to be buried with him!

But before annihilating the entire Great Lan Dynasty.

He had to find the true culprit!

He had to find the one who actually did it.

He would make that person experience the most terrifying torture in this world.

"Great Lan Empress!"

"Hand over the murderer of my son immediately!"

"And his entire Family!"

"Otherwise, every fifteen minutes, I will kill ten thousand people!"

Zhao Chongyang's figure landed directly above the palace, standing in mid-air, gazing down.

At this time, the palace guards finally seemed to react, rushing to the front of the square.

They wanted to protect the Empress.

But just then, a cold and majestic female voice rang out from within the palace.

"All of you, stand down."

The many guards retreated to both sides.

At the same time.

From the main hall of the palace, a stunningly beautiful woman wearing a black dragon-patterned robe and a black dragon crown slowly walked out.

Between her brows was a vast majesty.

Her appearance gave off the impression of being the most authoritative symbol in existence.

Even a goddess from the heavens would find it difficult to compare.

Even the murderous Zhao Chongyang was slightly stunned when he saw the Great Lan Empress's face, and his intentions quietly shifted.

After taking his revenge and killing everyone else in the Great Lan Dynasty, he would specifically imprison this Great Lan Empress for his own pleasure!

What a pleasure it would be to have such a world-stunning face beneath him.

The Empress waved away her attendants.

Even facing this group of high-and-mighty Martial King experts who could destroy the Great Lan Dynasty in an instant.

The Empress herself showed not the slightest hint of fear.

"Zhao Chongyang, I was the one who killed your son."

"It has nothing to do with anyone else."

The Empress said slowly, her tone cold and firm.
