This shouldn’t be...

The lady with the surname Shen furrowed her brows, meticulously recalling Shen San’s memories.

Chen Ying is a newly born member of the Human Race, merely twenty-two years old with exceptional talent.

Backed by Chen Qing and supported by the Divine Path Sect and the Azure Dragon Heritage, her strength has soared, but she only became Transcendent at the beginning of this year.

Transcendent and King Level seem to be separated by only one rank, but the disparity between them spans the breadth of the galaxy!

In this world of countless beings, how many can attain King Level? King Level, the pinnacle of a race, below only the Venerable Ones, the ultimate boundary reachable by mortals!

This girl could reach that realm in her twenties?

When did this happen?

Before she could figure it out, the surrounding space had already been completely substituted.

The abundant Spiritual Energy permeated the area, and the woman controlling Shen San sensed immediately that the concentration of Spiritual Energy in this space had reached the level of the Dragon Palace Spiritual Field!

This indicates that a King Level... can move freely!

Just as this thought arose, an unmatched pressure descended from the heavens. Without warning or resistance, Shen San was folded by a force and compressed as though being pushed into a space the size of a magic cube.

Shen San immediately gave up resisting and closed her eyes.

Transcendents are no match for King Levels, a gap no amount of skill can bridge. Although she didn’t understand how the woman could do this, the current situation was that she was no match for this woman!

As Shen San was instantly sealed, the distant woman controlling Shen San quickly concealed herself.

She certainly did not want to be caught in one fell swoop.

Meanwhile, within the space, Chen Ying dressed in pure white garments descended from heaven, stepping down as if a goddess venturing down from the ninth heaven. With such nobility and strength, at that moment Shen Er even thought that even the Western Sea Dragon King might not necessarily win.

But this thought only lasted a moment because, a moment later, Chen Ying spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and fell almost like a kite with its string cut.

Shen Er was shocked and hurried forward to catch her!

When he caught Chen Ying, Shen Er felt something was off. At this moment, Chen Ying felt as light as cotton, as if even a slight force would break her like a bubble.

"How are you?" Shen Er asked urgently.

"Not too good..." Chen Ying shook her head: "Seniors... quickly find a place to hide, I can’t deceive the other party for too long with my condition!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Er did not inquire further on how she managed everything, but immediately ran towards Lyuzhou City.

The woman at the King Level might not have any challenger except when the lord returns, as Chen Ying said, their only option was to hide, and the only feasible place to hide under the eyes of such a master was one specific location.

Chen Ying slowly closed her eyes, a bitter smile curling the corners of her mouth.

Lady Ziyue had given her a trump card before she left, but she had not expected to use it so soon...

-------------------------------

"Lady Ziyue... are you really going to go?"

This was the night before Ziyue set out to the Southern Sea to rescue Ao Zhen and the others.

"I must go..." Lady Ziyue said solemnly: "I know this is likely a trap, but if we don’t go, the West Sea Aquatic Tribe will completely lose heart, and without the West Sea Aquatic Tribe, it’s basically impossible for us in Jiangnan to catch up with those resurgent Ancient Forces!"

"Why?" Chen Ying was astonished.

"Do you think, why would Chen Qing cultivate so many Magicians? Why would he still seek to win over so many Sorcerer Families?"

"This..." Chen Ying genuinely did not understand. In her opinion, Jiangnan now truly did not need to win over those Sorcerer Families, yet Chen Qing was still devising ways to attract descendants of these Noble Families to bind themselves to Jiangnan.

"He is doing this to collect techniques."

"Techniques?" Chen Ying was stunned, "Is this... necessary?"

With the legacy of the Dragon Palace in Jiangnan and various Array Masters in academies, is it really necessary to collect those old techniques?

"It’s necessary..." Ziyue smiled and said, "Chen Qing sending Shen Yuan to show off in Capital City is to let everyone see the power of the Array Master, so they subconsciously think that their family techniques are not as valuable as those in Jiangnan, but it’s not actually the case."

"That is...."

"The law of arrays is powerful and important, but in the future, powerful individual magicians are also very important.

Those family techniques inherited by the families, they have not been able to utilize them fully.

The family techniques mostly rely on the spirits of heaven and earth, but the bodies of the Human Race have limited tolerance and cannot unleash their full power, so many techniques wanted to undergo Dragon Transformation.

.. in fact, this direction is not wrong. "

"Dragon Transformation... You mean my lord wants to..."

"Yes..." Ziyue nodded, "It’s the power of Dragon Transformation. To be precise, it’s the Symbiotic Power.

Dragon Transformation is just an immature experiment.

The best form of Dragon Transformation is to symbiotically cultivate a strong Demon bloodline, to nurture a large number of magicians, especially combat magicians.

In the future, it will require a powerful Demon from the Aquatic Tribe to coexist with magicians in order to train mighty human magicians who can rival ancient powers in a short time. Do you understand?"

"So, that’s how it is.....but... if something happens to you, who will take charge here in the south of Jiangnan? I think I should go to the Southern Sea."

"You can’t go..." Ziyue shook her head, "Don’t underestimate yourself. On this trip to Yundu, you have received the true Azure Dragon Heritage, and after the Four Holy Ritual, haven’t you noticed that you are no longer the same as before?"

"Yes... a little bit..." Chen Ying felt her body and always had the feeling that she could now do anything.

"At your current age, possessing that power is still too early, but there always comes a time when you have no choice..." While speaking, Ziyue took out a piece of white translucent stone.

"What is this?"

"Future Stone!" Ziyue handed the stone to her and said, "This is something I made with the power of the Demon Statue, my Demon Statue can control time and space, and it can overdraw your future power.

This Future Stone can temporarily allow you to grow into yourself ten years from now, but the side effects are very severe. "

Overdrawing the future?

Chen Ying silently examined the stone, curiously scrutinizing it.

"What are the side effects?"

"I don’t know... it might diminish your potential or it might cause your body to suffer a great burden. So unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t use it. If it becomes necessary, try to keep the duration short. The shorter you use it, the smaller the side effects."

"I understand..."

"Chen Ying... after I leave, a major incident will inevitably happen in Jiangnan. That old mudfish sealed in the West Sea will probably not miss this opportunity, so you must be careful and hold on until Chen Qing and I return..."

"Chen Qing... Will my lord... come back?"

"He will..." Ziyue smiled and said, "When have you ever seen him lose?"

"That’s true...." Chen Ying accepted the stone and felt somewhat reassured thinking of Chen Qing.

She had a vague feeling that this time... Jiangnan might face its greatest calamity, but she believed in Chen Qing. No matter what difficulties they encountered in the past, Chen Qing always came out on top in the end. This time... it would be the same!

------------------------------------

Five breaths....

Chen Ying calculated the time, then glanced at the stone in her hand. A black dot appeared on the white stone, and at this moment she felt as if all her bones were gone.

Just five breaths, and the side effects are already this severe....

At this moment, Shen Yuan seemed to be saying something anxiously to her, but she couldn’t hear anything.

Now... I can only trust this sinister guy, hopefully, senior Shen San’s trust in me... wasn’t misplaced....
