Eternal Sovereign

There was nothing special about [Wandering Dragon Technique]. It was a normal and mediocre Mortal level technique, but Chen Yi was already very satisfied with it. Some of the techniques were powerful, but when practiced to a certain degree, they would even have a variety of martial arts offensive techniques.

However, with the [Burning Demon Art], what Chen Yi needed was only a cultivation technique that could enhance the level of his martial arts.

Just the [Burning Demon Art] alone was enough to fill one's true energy with the power of the Burning Demon, and it was already full of destructive power.

When paired with the [Wandering Dragon Technique], the might of the zhenqi was comparable to that of a superior Houtian realm cultivator.

[Wandering Dragon Technique] was divided into eight levels, and upon reaching the Perfection of the eighth level, one would be able to practice a technique called [Wandering Dragon Technique]. This was a technique that was specially designed to open up the twelve main aspects of the technique, and it was much more gentle and easy to achieve a breakthrough than usual.

The reason why Chen Yi had chosen the [Wandering Dragon Technique] was because he had taken a fancy to the [Wandering Dragon Technique].

Amongst the martial arts techniques on the second level, the [Wandering Dragon Technique] was the most outstanding.

Of course, this didn't mean that Chen Yi wouldn't be interested in any other harmful cultivation techniques with the [Devil Burning Technique]. If possible, Chen Yi naturally wished to practice those powerful cultivation techniques, but since the second floor didn't have them, he could only take a step back.

After selecting his cultivation method, Chen Yi chose a boxing style, "Shadowless Fist".

"..."

"Fifth Elder, I choose [Wandering Dragon Technique] and [Shadowless Fist]." After making his selection, Chen Yi returned to the first floor and bowed to the fifth elder.

"Return after seven days. Try to memorize all of them. Otherwise, you can take them off in case you forget them in the future."

"Yes." Chen Yi responded and impatiently wanted to return to his cultivation, the [Wandering Dragon Technique].

Of course, this scene was also witnessed by the disciples of the Chen Clan who were still in the first level to choose cultivation or battle techniques.

Not long after, the news that Chen Yi's body had recovered and had chosen a cultivation method or battle technique spread throughout the entire Chen Residence.

This time, it even reached the higher-ups.

For example, Chen Yi's father, eldest uncle, second uncle, and grandfather all heard this.

Other than being surprised by the last three, there were no other movements. On the other hand, his father was extremely excited and immediately sent a servant to call Chen Yi over.

Although his father's martial arts had been crippled and he had become a cripple, with his two brothers and his father around, no one would dare to insult him. They would secretly whisper to each other, but no one would dare to say it in front of their father.

Hence, the treatment Father Chen received in the Chen Residence wasn't bad.

"..."

In the small courtyard that Chen Yi was in.

"Father called me?"

"Yes, young master. I heard that you have already healed your body, I am very happy." Chen Yi was actually quite grateful towards Chen Jiu. Although Chen Jiu wasn't worried about food and clothing, and there were people waiting on him when he went in and out of the Chen Clan, compared to the treatment he received when he was a Chosen of the Chen Clan, it was still far from satisfactory.

Not only that, many of the servants by father Chen's side felt that they had no future with him, so they secretly bribed him, and then transferred themselves away through the servants they knew.

Currently, less than a third of the servants followed by the side of the Chen Residence right now.

As a third of the minority, Chen Jiu had firmly followed his father from the start. How could Chen Yi be disrespectful?

Privately, Chen Yi also treated Chen Jiu as his elder brother. At the very least, Chen Jiu treated him better than his elder brother.

"Brother Chen Jiu, take me to see father." Chen Yi nodded.

Chen Jiu said fearfully: "Little servant can't bear Young Master being addressed like this, if Eldest, Second, and even Family Head hears about it, little servant will be punished, but if Young Master is punished for it, then it's not worth it."

Chen Yi said with a smile, "Don't worry, I wouldn't do that when there are many people around."

Chen Yi treated Chen Jiu amiably, but in the eyes of others, Chen Jiu was still a servant. A master and a servant calling each other brothers would be ridiculed by others.

Master didn't look like master, and the servants didn't look like servants.

Unless Chen Jiu could break through to the Heavenly Axis Realm in the future, the treatment he would receive would be completely different.

However, breaking through to the Invigorated Meridian Realm was extremely difficult.

Chen Jiu sighed and said, "As long as young master knows what to do, it's fine. I understand your kind intentions, but …" Chen Jiu shook his head, but he felt very happy in his heart. Back then, the reason he stayed by his father's side was because he understood that his father and son were not like animals.

It had only been a few decades since the Chen Residence rose to prominence in Yongde Town. Although it was nothing compared to the previous few decades, it was still much better than the other families.

For example, the Zhang Clan and Du Clan that were as famous as the Chen Clan in Little Town. Chen Jiu knew that every year, there would be many servants dying and they would be carried out into the mountains.

Many of the servants in those two families would rather die than live.

Ever since he was young, Chen Jiu had known that as a servant, it was safest to follow a gentle and well-placed master.

From Chen Jiu's point of view, his father was such a master.

Now, even though he was a servant, he was valued highly by his master and young master. As a servant, he was already considered to be at the peak of his life.

"Those fools who leave early will definitely regret it in the future." Chen Jiu thought in disdain.

"..."

His father was the third son of the family head, and his full name was Chen Xiuqi.

He was dressed in a light purple robe and his hair was tied up. He was sitting on a wooden chair with a book in his hand.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Chen Xiuqi's expression changed. His jade-like face revealed traces of excitement.

Not long after, Chen Yi and Chen Jiu appeared in front of Chen Xiuqi.

Chen Yi first sized up his father. When he noticed that his father was only slightly pale and slightly weak without any major injuries, he heaved a sigh of relief.

After all these years, his father had been drinking medicine to maintain his good health. Every time Chen Yi saw him, he would first check to see if his father was getting worse.

Father Chen was about to stand up in excitement, but Chen Yi hurriedly helped him to sit down again.

"Father, your health isn't good, so there's no need for you to get up." Chen Yi said.

Chen's father snappily replied, "I'm not crippled enough to stand on my feet and want to vomit blood."

Chen Jiu watched as his father and Chen Yi continued chatting for a while, then he smiled and walked out, closing the door behind him and leaving some space for the two of them.

Chen Yi laughed mischievously as he looked at the book his father had placed at the side. "Since when has father liked reading these kinds of books?"

The book placed beside Father Chen was impressively written by some of the country's scholars.

Father laughed, "I was bored. I just read and found these essays very interesting. I have never read these essays written by scholars before when I was practicing martial arts, but now, I have a different experience with them."

Chen Yi found this funny. "Could it be that Father still wants to become a great scholar?"

Father Chen said in dissatisfaction, "What? Can't do it?"

Chen Yi coaxed his father, "Fine, fine, fine. Father is always an elite."

Father Chen didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. Why would it be his son's turn to coax him?

After straightening his expression, Father Chen finally changed the topic back to the topic of business. He asked with a slightly congealed expression, "Xiaoyi, are you really well?"

Chen Yi hurriedly nodded. "It's really done."

The father was a cripple right now. His vision was not bad, but he had no way to judge Chen Yi's aura, much less how many meridians Chen Yi had opened, so he could only ask directly.

Chen Yi's answer shocked his father.

"Four connected? Peak of the intermediate stage of the Invigorated Meridian Realm? "How is this possible!?" Father Chen stood up in shock.

"Impossible!" "How can one reach the pinnacle of the middle stage of the Invigorated Meridian Realm immediately after breaking through!" Father Chen shook his head in disbelief.

Chen Yi shrugged. "That's why I've always been unwilling to treat patients. I know that this isn't an illness, and that this is something I've inherited from the special bloodline I've awakened."

"Special bloodline?" You awakened your special bloodline? " Father Chen's eyes widened.

Chen Yi nodded. "Yes, the bloodline that I've awakened is the [Burning Demon Body]. The reason why my cultivation level regressed in the past is also because of the [Burning Demon Body]."

"Before I awaken [Body of the Burning Demon], I have to go through this stage. However, once I awaken, there will be a period of explosion, so the moment I break through, I reached the pinnacle of the middle stage of the Invigorated Meridian Realm."

These words were naturally from Chen Yi spouting nonsense, but it also perfectly explained the fact that his cultivation realm had always broken through and regressed a few years ago.

Chen Yu's father did not doubt Chen Yi's words because there were too many special bloodlines. Every single one of them was different, with all kinds of awakening conditions.

Some awakening conditions were very strange. For example, Father Chen knew that there was a type of [harem body] that needed to be combined with many opposite sex before it could be awakened.

Of course, homosexuality was also fine, if they had a special hobby.

Even if it was a bit special, different races would be able to do it.

Although the condition for the awakening that Chen Yi mentioned was very deceitful and eccentric, it was much more normal when compared to [harem body]. Thus, father Chen very quickly naturally accepted it.
