Eternal Sovereign

"The difficulty of breaking through to the peak of the first transition in the first transition is quite high." Chen Yi was inwardly speechless.

Chen Yi could feel the power within his body constantly increasing with every use of the Body of the Burning Demon. It was a lot stronger than the two months before.

Even so, he was still unable to break through to the peak of the first transition.

The difficulty in upgrading the [Burning Demon Arts] was even higher than Chen Yi had expected.

Fortunately, he had the [Burning Demon Heart]. With every breath Chen Yi took, he cultivated the [Burning Demon Arts]. Otherwise, with the difficulty of the [Burning Demon Arts] cultivation, he would need at least half a year to reach his current pace of two months.

However, Chen Yi wasn't affected by the difficulty of his training. The higher the difficulty, the stronger the strength of the [Burning Demon Arts].

Previously, Chen Yi couldn't accurately judge the power of the [Burning Demon Arts], but now, he had a rough guess.

If he were to execute the [Burning Demon Body], which was at the peak of Rank one, he should be able to contend against someone at the Heavenly Axis Realm.

Perhaps [Burning Demon Body], which was at the peak of the first transition, could compete with a Lesser Innate.

With his second transition [Burning Demon Body], it was very likely that his body would be able to return to the Innate Realm. Just by relying on his Innate body, he would be able to fight against the Innate Master.

Of course, this was just a conjecture. Whether or not the truth was so, once he breaks through to the pinnacle of the first transition and reached the Great Perfection Stage, he would naturally know.

"..."

Two days later, in the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone through the window.

Chen Yi carried the [White Rainbow Sunpierce Sword] and the [Violet Rain Sword] as he pushed open the door and walked out.

In front of the Chen Residence, several Chen Clan disciples, who had the right to participate in the Du Clan tea ceremony, were already waiting.

In a little while, the Chen family head, two of the Heavenly Axis Realm elders, as well as Chen Yi's uncles would lead them to the Du Family.

Some of the nearby Chen family disciples looked at Chen Jinghe and the others with envy. They wanted to join the Du family's tea ceremony, but unfortunately, they did not have the qualifications.

"If only I had the strength of six meridians, I might be able to go as well."

"Don't even think about it. Even if they have six meridians the strength of a cultivator, without a Heavenly Axis Realm elder, it would be useless. The clan will not waste their resources on us." "Chen Li, Chen Chang and the rest have just entered six meridians and are not even at the peak of six meridians. If it wasn't for grandfather being a Elder of the Heavenly Axis Realm, how could the two of them be among the limited number of spots?"

"That's right, Chen Jinghe is from the Small Circle, and is the number one person among our Chen Clan's younger generation. He has the qualifications for us to accept him." Chen Liangliang is also a 7-Pulse Warrior and is at the Great Circle of the Invigorated Meridian Realm. "Chen Li and Chen Chang have only just entered the sixth meridian. Among the younger generation in our Chen family that are under twenty, even those who are in the top ten barely make it in. If they didn't have good seniors, how would it be their turn?"

"Don't feel so bad. Just thinking that Chen Xuhuang doesn't even have the right to do so would make you feel much better." A Chen family disciple said happily in his bitterness.

Chen Xuhuang was a fighter with seven meridians and was on par with Zhang Tian of the Zhang family. He was also a well-known figure in the Chen family and only Chen Liangliang and Chen Jinghe could win against him.

However, because Chen Xuhuang was from the side branch and did not have a powerful Heavenly Axis Realm elder, he did not qualify to participate in the Du Family tea ceremony.

Another person said, "Chen Yi was also unable to participate."

"Although Chen Yi is already well, he has only recovered for two months. How strong can he be? It's just a mere four meridians, there's no use. Someone said in disdain.

Many of the Chen family's children felt better. They had not been able to participate, but wasn't it true that geniuses like Chen Xueyang had been unable to participate as well?

Wasn't it the same with Chen Yi's direct line?

Some people gloated, while others lamented for Chen Yi and Chen Xu. "Chen Xun only broke through four meridians a few days ago, and he can even participate. It's such a pity for Chen Yi and Chen Xu Huang."

"There's nothing we can do about it. San Ye's position is far worse than before." A Chen family disciple from the five meridians said as he spread his hands.

On the other hand, Chen Jinghe and the rest of the Chen family members were quietly waiting for their elders to arrive.

Soon, with the Chen family's eldest son, Chen Han Hai, eldest uncle Chen Yi, second uncle, and two other elders of the Heavenly Axis Realm following behind them, the nearby Chen family disciples all began to clamor.

No matter how dissatisfied they were, they didn't dare to say anything in front of the Chen family's higher ups.

"Third Uncle?" Seeing that his father had followed them, Chen Jinghe and Chen Xun looked at each other in dismay.

"What, I can't come?" His expression was somewhat cold.

"No, no." Chen Jinghe and Chen Xun were embarrassed and even felt a little uncomfortable. One had to know that they had helped quite a bit with the matter of Chen Yi not being able to obtain a spot in the Du Family's tea party.

Unsatisfied with his father's attitude, the second uncle said, "Third Brother, how can you say things so brazenly?"

Chen father sneered but didn't reply.

"You …" Chen Yi's second uncle's expression froze.

Chen Hanhai frowned, "We're about to set off. As elders, you two should restrain yourselves. Don't let the younger generation and outsiders see this as a joke."

Finishing this sentence, Chen Hanhai looked at his father, "Third brother, your body is currently weak. What if the juniors fought at the tea party and hurt you by accident? Why don't you stay at home?"

Father Chen's expression was still cold as he said, "It's just a mere exchange of pointers between Invigorated Meridian Stage juniors, how much damage could it cause?"

Invigorated Meridian Realm martial artists were still unable to release their true qi, and most of them relied on their weapons to fight, causing limited damage.

It was not like the battles of a quasi-Xiantian master. It was loud and powerful, easily causing massive damage to the surrounding area. If an ordinary martial artist were to be caught up in it, even if they didn't die, they would at least be severely injured.

Ordinary people, on the other hand, had no chance of surviving.

Chen Hanhai's frown deepened, probably because the atmosphere wasn't good, Uncle Chen quickly said: "Don't worry Father, Third Bro is sitting next to me, he'll be fine."

Since Uncle Chen Yi had spoken, Chen Hanhai could not say anything else.

Amongst the three brothers, the one Chen Hanhai doted on the most was the third brother. Unfortunately, because of Chen Yi's matter, his father's heart was filled with resentment towards his father, Chen Hanhai. Naturally, his attitude wouldn't be good. Chen Hanhai was also a stubborn person, how could he be willing to apologize to his son. Even if father Chen didn't give him a good face, Chen Hanhai wouldn't take the initiative to give his son a good face.

However, even if he didn't want to lower his head, his heart still ached. Thus, when Uncle Chen Yi opened his mouth, Chen Hanhai took advantage of this opportunity.

"Let's go." Chen Hanhai sighed.

Just as everyone was about to set off, Father Chen said, "Hold up! There are still people who have not come! "

"Who?" Chen Hanhai's gaze swept across the crowd and found that Chen Jinghe and the others had all arrived. Not a single one of them had yet to arrive.

Right at this moment, Chen Yi slowly walked over from afar.

"Chen Yi?" Chen Jinghe and the others were stunned. Could it be that the person Third Uncle was referring to was Chen Yi?

Didn't Chen Yi lack the qualifications?

Second Uncle Chen Yi said in a strange tone, "Third Brother, you should know that Chen Yi doesn't have an invitation from the Du Family Tea House. Could it be that you think that by making Chen Yi follow us, you won't be intercepted by the Du Family?"

In the face of Chen Yi's second uncle's strange aura, his father revealed a mysterious smile. "Who said that my family's Chen Yi doesn't have an invitation?"

At this time, Chen Yi had already walked in front of everyone. He took out the invitation letter from the Du Family and said with a smile, "Second Uncle, this is the invitation letter personally handed to Father and me by the Du Family."

"How is this possible!" He abruptly took the invitation from Chen Yi and looked at it several times in disbelief, confirming that the invitation letter was indeed real and not fake.

Chen Hanhai and the two Revolving Core elders were also dumbfounded. They received the invitation letter one after another, and finally had to admit that it was real.

"Third Bro, what's going on?" Chen Hanhai could not help but ask his father.

Father should have asked the Du Family for this. The Du Family personally sent someone to deliver it to me. Perhaps, it is the Du Clan's eyes that are good. "

The meaning behind his words was that Chen Hanhai and Second Bro had bad eyesight, which made the two's faces darken.

The surrounding Chen family members looked at each other in dismay. They never would have thought that instead of obtaining a spot for Chen Yi, the Du family would bring one over on their own accord. They didn't waste a single strand of resources on the Chen family.

"Damn it!" "How is this possible!?" Chen Xun roared in his heart, while Chen Jinghe's expression was also somewhat unsightly. Could it be that Chen Yi's ambition could not be stopped?

As for Chen Li, Chen Chang, and the other members of the Chen family who were participating in the tea ceremony, they were not as upset as Chen Xun and Chen Jinghe. They knew that it was impossible for them to become disciples of the Mysterious Shadows Sect.

From the very beginning, their goal was to become the direct disciples of the Profound Imagery Sect. Moreover, they all had the strength of six meridians, so they were not afraid of Chen Yi who merely had the strength of four branches.

They naturally didn't know that Chen Yi's current strength wasn't four meridians at all, but six.

In addition, Chen Yi, who possessed superior true qi, was slightly stronger than a middle level true qi disciple of the seven meridians. He could not simply treat him as a six meridians true qi practitioner.

"It's fake, it must be fake. How can you be qualified to join the Du Family tea ceremony!" Chen Xun couldn't stand this sort of thing. A few days ago, he had even come before Chen Yi to put on a show of force and ridiculed him endlessly.

In the end, not only did Chen Yi have the right to participate in the Du Family tea ceremony, he was also sent here by the Du Family on his own initiative.

This caused Chen Xun to feel as if his face was being continuously slapped.

Chen Yi slightly raised his brows. "I don't have the qualifications? Then, you are qualified? "

Chen Xun held his head high and puffed out his chest. "Naturally, I've already broken through to the fourth meridian!"

"Two months ago, I was already a member of four bloodlines." Chen Yi calmly pointed out the truth.

"You … So what if you have four meridians? In such a short period of time, it was impossible for you to train your martial arts to a high level. The last time I lost to you, it was because my martial arts cultivation was lower than yours. Now that we have four meridians, it's impossible for you to be my match! " Chen Xun roared.

"You can try." Chen Yi's tone was cold.

He seemed to have been greatly stimulated by Chen Yi's attack, as he fiercely charged towards Chen Yi and smashed his fist towards Chen Yi.

This scene was out of everyone's expectations. They did not expect Chen Xun to suddenly make a move.

"Stop!" Chen Liangliang and Chen Yi's uncle roared in anger. Chen Yi even stepped forward to stop Chen Xun.

However, Chen Yi's speed was even faster, he took out the [Pursuing Shadow] movement technique, and with the support of the terrifying true energy of a six meridians martial artist, he almost turned into an afterimage as he directly slapped his palm on Chen Xun's abdomen. Chen Xun only felt a shadow flash by his side, and in the next moment, his abdomen was struck by a terrifying force.

"A warrior of six meridians!" Chen Hanhai was shocked.
