Master of Strange Dao

"Children, if you want people to like you, you must control your tongue, and your words should be sweet.

Adults, if they don't want to be beaten to death, must control their tongue even more.

It's okay if you don't understand now, just remember it, and you will gradually understand in the future."

The little kid nodded blankly. His Second Grandpa rarely spoke to him so kindly, hugged him twice in one day without hitting him, nor did he hit his father. Even if he didn't understand, he knew he should listen carefully.

Song Chengyue returned to Daqian, reporting the matters to Emperor Qian with a grave and serious expression.

"According to the people of Jinlan Mountain, that Great Devil was already dead before entering this realm, only the corpse fell down.

I personally went to see it. That Ox Devil had its head severed in one blow, the cut was incredibly smooth, no lingering power, yet the wound could still be sealed.

It's absolutely impossible for a Ninth Tier to achieve that.

And that Ox Devil is definitely an existence beyond the Ninth Tier.

The people of Jinlan Mountain themselves didn't understand what happened, and didn't detect who made the move."

Song Chengyue brought out those dozens of pounds of beef, intending to present them to Emperor Qian.

Emperor Qian only took a part, letting Song Chengyue keep the rest.

It wasn't appropriate to take everything that was given to Song Chengyue.

After Song Chengyue left, Emperor Qian touched the beef with one hand, sensing carefully.

The Demonic Qi was completely purged, leaving only beef with extremely potent energy contained within.

Someone lacking strength would explode and die after just one bite, eighty percent likely.

Indeed, it is not comparable to a Ninth Tier Great Demon or Great Devil.

Emperor Qian's expression was grave; he believed it wasn't someone inside Jinlan Mountain who made the move and believed it was someone from beyond this realm.

He had someone from the Imperial Kitchen cook a small piece. Emperor Qian personally tasted it, feeling the power within.

He didn't use any power, allowing the energy within the beef to spread. In just a moment, a fine layer of fluff began to appear over his body.

But that fluff lost its most fundamental support, and at this step, couldn't support any further transformation.

With a thought, Emperor Qian rolled up the energy within himself, digesting those energies.

"It really is the meat of a Tenth Tier Ox Devil..."

Several days later, during the grand court assembly, Emperor Qian sat on the throne, arranging matters with a cold expression.

The Crown Prince as Regent, courtiers assisting.

The Second Prince commanding the northern army, guarding against the eastern Sea Clan. Should there be any change in the East Sea, the Second Prince could also control the eastern army.

As for other slightly weaker princes, some were assigned to the south to oversee matters related to the Southern Sea.

Those even less regarded, with weaker strength, were assigned to the west.

Once the basic structure was set, Emperor Qian announced he would begin his closed-door cultivation.

This time, closed-door cultivation might take hundreds of years. Without a matter of great importance, he would not come out.

Emperor Qian was stimulated.

It's been a long, long time since he felt such power that surpasses the Ninth Tier.

Just a piece of meat could already provide a little bit of sensation.

He couldn't wait any longer and had to start closed-door cultivation now to be fully prepared. When the path to the Tenth Tier opened, he could charge to the Tenth Tier in one go.

On that day, Yu Ziqing received news that Emperor Qian had finally begun closed-door cultivation.

Because of the beef he gave, Emperor Qian took a bite and was stimulated, unable to wait anymore.

Yu Ziqing did not anticipate such changes would occur.

Then, a day later, news came from Dali that Emperor Li also went into closed-door cultivation, with the Crown Prince of Dali acting as Regent.

However, the Regency of the Dali Crown Prince is almost equivalent to ascending the throne, with power far greater than the Daqian Crown Prince.

Even if the Dali Crown Prince initiated a confrontation with Daqian on the day of becoming Regent, probably not many people would stop her.

Yu Ziqing was on Jinlan Mountain, grilling beef while pondering.

Was his guess wrong, was his speculation too superficial? How could the giant be doing it just to let him taste the beef?

Did the giant know early on that after throwing over that beef, it would trigger a series of changes?

You Zhen said that for people at his realm level, just eating the beef allows them, from the closest distance, to glimpse a bit of power beyond the Ninth Tier.

Even though that Ox Devil is a devil, a stone from other mountains could still sand jade, just a little bit of realization might be enough for them to see a bit of direction in the dark path ahead.

Therefore.

Yu Ziqing also cut over ten thousand pounds of beef for You Zhen, from various parts.

Let You Zhen fully comprehend, there's more if it's not enough, plenty more.

Cutting tens of thousands of pounds is a small issue.

This Ox Devil meat is much easier to preserve compared to the previous giant shark meat.

Then, You Zhen also prepared to begin his closed-door cultivation.

Among the Three Divine Dynasties, only Emperor Zhen was not yet in closed-door cultivation, as he couldn't spare a hand, the environment of Dazhen had not stabilized to a point where he could let go.

More importantly, Emperor Zhen surely knew that You Zhen would go into closed-door cultivation, so he wasn't in a hurry.

Yu Ziqing had only given away a tiny bit of the beef, yet triggered a series of changes.

The world had calmed down, because everyone was seeking stability, wanting to practice and enter closed-door cultivation peacefully.

At this time, all those from the Evil Dao who were causing trouble, acted like obedient grandchildren.

They all knew that coming out to make trouble at this time would certainly be met with heavy blows, fundamentally not giving them an opportunity to make things big.

Yu Ziqing crouched on Jinlan Mountain, consuming a large amount of beef to replenish every day, no matter how it's processed, the energy contained within is still too immense, eating so much, Yu Ziqing felt his temples have a tendency to grow horns.

The cultivation of the Divine Power Realm was making rapid progress.
