136: Chapter 136 A Special Skill!
A moment later, the cat-girl proprietress came over, carrying a pot of tea that exuded a rich fruity aroma.
"Is this your first time in Haofeng City, sirs and madams?"
"Would this little one like to introduce you to some local attractions?"
Tian Zhan waved his hand:
"No, no need. We're just looking around.
"Wait!"
Su Mo called out to the cat-girl, who was about to leave, and placed two High-Grade Spirit Stones on her paw pad.
"Tell us, what major events have happened recently in the Myriad Beast Kingdom?"
The cat-girl proprietress's eyes lit up. She quickly pocketed the Spirit Stones and moved closer to Su Mo, her long tail almost wrapping around Su Mo's arm, but it was blocked by a fair hand.
Tian Yue stood up and sat beside Su Mo, separating him from the cat-girl.
Seeing this, the cat-girl gave an awkward smile, retracted her tail, and lowered her voice:
"The biggest news recently is undoubtedly the new emperor's succession."
"The old Demon Emperor is about to abdicate, and the three Imperial Princes are currently vying for the throne!"
"I heard that even Human Race Cultivator forces have intervened. It's said that undercurrents have been surging in the Imperial City recently..."
Just then, gasps of surprise came from outside the shop.
"Wolf Army!"
The cat-girl pointed out the window, her face pale.
Dust billowed in the street, as a group of giant wolves clad in golden armor swiftly passed by. The lowest cultivation of these giant wolves was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and pedestrians who couldn't get out of the way in time were sent flying far off.
"It's the army under the First Imperial Prince!"
Seeing her terrified expression, Su Mo asked:
"What are they going to do?"
Hearing this, the cat-girl gasped, still shaken:
"Judging by their direction, they should be heading to the Imperial City."
"Perhaps... in a few days, the new emperor's ascension will be announced..."
Su Mo took a sip of the so-called fruit dew, and a rich, sweet taste immediately spread in his mouth.
"Judging by your expression, it seems the First Imperial Prince's ascension isn't good news."
The cat-girl's face turned pale, and she lowered her voice:
"The First Imperial Prince is tyrannical by nature. If he ascends, us low-level Yao Race cultivators might..."
"So that's how it is... Which Imperial Prince do you favor the most?"
The cat-girl cautiously looked around:
"The one I favor most is definitely the Second Imperial Prince, Chi Yin. He is gentle by nature and most benevolent to us low-level beast folk."
"What about the Third Imperial Prince?"
Su Mo probed.
"The Third Imperial Prince?"
"I don't know, I heard he's unreliable, but I'm not sure about the specifics."
That's right!
The Third Imperial Prince was probably his 'cheap dad' from his first life.
"Brother-in-law, are you planning to go to the Imperial City?"
Tian Zhan now had two horns on his head, looking like a bull demon.
His words made the cat-girl proprietress's eyes widen.
Brother-in-law?!
That means this fox married a cow as his wife.
It is well known that cows are generally synonymous with physical strength and endurance.
This fox must have a special skill.
She glanced at Su Mo's lower abdomen, couldn't help but cross her legs, and walked into the back kitchen.
"Indeed."
Su Mo slowly nodded:
"If I'm not mistaken, there's someone in the Imperial City I absolutely must beat up."
"However, I'll wait until I break through to the Soul Transformation Stage first."
His current cultivation at Nascent Soul Great Perfection was still a bit low.
Tian Zhan said in surprise:
"You're about to break through?!"
"Then let's go out of the city to find a place for Undergoing Tribulation..."
He was interrupted by Su Mo before he could finish:
"No need, I don't need to undergo Lightning Tribulation..."
"No need to undergo Lightning Tribulation?!"
...Three days later.
In the Myriad Beast Kingdom, on a desolate mountain outside Haofeng City.
A colossal, completely black sphere enveloped the entire mountain peak.
Even though it was daytime and the sun was high, there wasn't a single reflection on the sphere's surface, as if even light had been completely swallowed.
Suddenly, the sphere dissipated, and a figure flew out from within.
"Brother-in-law, you succeeded in your Breakthrough?"
Tian Zhan excitedly went to meet him. He still couldn't discern Su Mo's depth.
Coupled with the absence of a Lightning Tribulation, it was hard to believe that Su Mo had truly broken through to the Soul Transformation Stage.
[Host: Su Mo]
[Race: Human]
[Rank: Soul Transformation (1.../36000000)]
[Skills: Infinite White Porridge (Never Expires), Infinite Radiance]
[Talents: Myriad Races Furnace (Five-Colored Chicken...), Quantum Analysis]
Glancing at his personal panel, Su Mo chuckled lightly:
"Indeed, I have successfully broken through to the Soul Transformation Stage."
Hearing this, Tian Zhan exclaimed with emotion:
"Brother-in-law, are you the son of the Heavenly Dao?!"
"To break through a major Realm without a Lightning Tribulation descending?"
Su Mo smiled without speaking.
His current achievements were entirely the result of his own hard work.
After Su Mo broke through to the Soul Transformation Stage, the red Golden Core in his Dantian merely grew several times larger, and its heat also increased several times, simultaneously refining his physique.
But the greater change was in his Domain.
Within his Domain, he could control all light, turning the Domain into extreme darkness or extreme brightness. Moreover, within the Domain, he could momentarily increase his speed to the speed of light.
Although it could only be maintained for an instant, it was terrifying enough!
"Let's go, let's take a look at the Myriad Beast Kingdom's Imperial City."
Haofeng City was a border city of the Myriad Beast Kingdom, tens of thousands of miles away from the Imperial City.
Among the group, with three Soul Transformation cultivators and one Body Integration cultivator, their flying speed was naturally not slow.
Along the way, Su Mo saw many armies and streaks of Escape Light ( Escape Light) rushing towards the Imperial City. Each figure within the Escape Light ( Escape Light) had a cultivation level starting from the Soul Transformation Stage... Imperial City.
Each figure within the Escape Light had a cultivation level starting from the Soul Transformation Stage... Imperial City.
First Imperial Prince's Residence.
"First Imperial Prince, everything is ready."
An old white ape bowed and reported.
"Just waiting for the edict tomorrow, and you will be the new emperor of the Myriad Beast Kingdom!"
Chi Fen toyed with the blood-red flames in his hand, a hint of brutality flashing in his eyes:
"What's the movement from my second and third brothers?"
The white ape respectfully said:
"The Second Imperial Prince has gathered many Human Race Cultivators, seemingly plotting something."
Chi Fen sneered:
"Human Race Cultivators?"
"They're just ants greedy for profit."
He suddenly clenched the flames in his hand.
"Once I ascend the throne, the first thing I'll do is eliminate these traitors who collude with the Human Race!"
The white ape cautiously said:
"As for the Third Imperial Prince, he's still in his residence taking care of his wife, and occasionally visits the Imperial Palace to see the old emperor."
A hint of mockery flashed in Chi Fen's eyes:
"What a waste!"
"He probably forgot how many heirs there are to the throne!"
"Does he really think that acting like a filial son will make the Imperial Father pass the throne to him?"
The white ape loudly proclaimed:
"First Imperial Prince, you are the true heir to the throne! Both in strength and influence, you far surpass the other Imperial Princes!"
"You are the rightful new emperor!"
Chi Fen laughed triumphantly:
"Well said!"
"After I ascend, you will be my Prime Minister!"
The white ape trembled with excitement:
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"I'm going to the Imperial Palace now to see if my dying Imperial Father has passed away yet."
"My other brothers have all gone, so I can't fall behind."
"Hahahaha..."
Chi Fen laughed as he walked out.
The white ape quickly flattered him:
"Your Majesty is brilliant!"
...Meanwhile.
Su Mo and the others were being led forward by a Rat-girl.
The Rat-girl ran while whispering:
"Seniors of the Human Race, my Imperial Prince is waiting for you!"
Su Mo and the others had barely entered the Imperial City when they were stopped by a mouse demon who spoke a secret code. Tian Zhan responded to it, and they inexplicably followed along.
"How did you know that secret code?"
Su Mo quietly asked Tian Zhan.
Tian Zhan scratched his head:
"When I was young and naive, I spent a few years as a Loose Cultivator and did quite well. I heard these secret codes from others."
It must be said, Tian Zhan really had some tricks up his sleeve.
Su Mo looked at the Rat-girl leading the way and quietly asked:
"How did you recognize us?"
The Rat-girl giggled:
"Junior has a trace of the Truth Listener Bloodline within her, and is most adept at seeing through disguises."
"Although you all wear artifacts that conceal your aura, you still cannot hide it from me."
