Empress
“Greetings, Your Majesty!” Zhang Ronghua cupped his fists and bowed.
The empress examined him with an extremely penetrating gaze as if she wanted to see through him.
Seeing that he was delicate and handsome, had huge potential, and a clean identity, and had recently made a great contribution, her eyes softened slightly, “Do you know why the Crown Prince brought you to see me?”
“I don’t know!”
“The Crown Prince has never spoken up for anyone. You’re the first and only one. He asked me to allow you to enter the Great Xia’s arsenal and choose any cultivation method you want.”
Zhang Ronghua knew the meaning of the empress’s words and asked him to remember the Crown Prince’s grace. He expressed appropriately, “Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I definitely won’t let you down.”
“Yes.”
The palace maid from before called out and gestured to follow her.
After leaving the Tranquil Heart Hall, he circled around again.
After a long time, he entered an even deeper courtyard and stopped outside an ordinary palace.
There was only an old man at the door. He was dressed in gray and was lying lazily on a chair. When he saw them coming, he did not look up and continued to close his eyes to bask in the sun.
“Greetings, Ancestor!”
He pointed at Zhang Ronghua and introduced, “Her Majesty asked me to bring him over and enter the armory to choose a cultivation method.”
The Ancestor opened his eyes and casually glanced at him. He understood that with such a good seedling, no wonder the Empress had spent so much effort to let him choose any cultivation method.
He waved his right hand.
An earthen yellow true essence landed on the door of the armory and opened the restriction.
“Treasure this opportunity.”
Zhang Ronghua thanked him, pushed open the door of the hall, and walked in.
When he entered, the door closed again.
Looking at the scene in front of him, it looked like an ordinary palace from the outside, but inside, the hall formed a space of its own, like a starry sky. Countless light spots were dense, and every light spot represented a cultivation method.
From the lowest Yellow-rank cultivation method to the world-destroying Godfiend cultivation method, the restrictions on it were opened and he could choose.
He finally understood why the empress emphasized the word “any” when she said it. When the ancestor heard that the palace maid asked him to choose any cultivation method, he could not help but look at him again. It was really too heavy.
After entering, he stopped in the depths of the hall.
Seeing him come over, these cultivation methods seemed to have intelligence and fled in all directions.
Zhang Ronghua was not in a hurry and thought about maximizing his benefits.
It was too difficult to find a cultivation method that was suitable for him with the naked eye. Even if he forcefully grabbed it, even if the cultivation method he obtained was very powerful, it was not the strongest and most impressive in the armory.
He had to cherish this opportunity and find the strongest and most impressive cultivation method from the thousands of years of foundation of Great Xia. Only then could he become stronger.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and followed his heart.
In a clear state, he quickly screened these cultivation methods.
Suddenly.
A black and yellow divine light flew past him. His instincts emitted a strong desire to obtain it.
Swoosh!
He opened his eyes and shot out two golden lights. He jumped up from the ground and grabbed this divine light at lightning speed.
The light was restrained, revealing a scroll. He opened the scroll. On it was a diagram of the creation of the world. On the side were five large words, “Black Yellow Heaven Splitting Diagram”.
Now was not the time to study it. He closed the scroll.
Looking again,
the light spots in front of him disappeared, and he was pushed out of the palace by a powerful force and stood outside the armory.
“What did you obtain?” the ancestor asked.
“Black Yellow Heaven Splitting Diagram!”
The ancestor was silent. It was unknown what he thought of, but he slapped his waist with one hand and took off his belt. He casually threw it over and waved his hand, indicating that they could leave.
Zhang Ronghua was a little stunned. He took the belt and left with the palace maid.
“A good seedling.”
With that said, the ancestor closed his eyes again.
Back at the Tranquil Heart Hall.
The palace maids retreated, and they were the only ones in the hall.
“What did you obtain?” the empress asked.
“Black Yellow Heaven Splitting Diagram.”
Noticing the belt in his hand, the empress’s eyes flashed. Even Zhang Ronghua did not catch it, “Did the ancestor give you the Five Dragon Spirit Control Belt?”
“Yes.”
“You may leave!”
Zhang Ronghua left and waited outside the Tranquil Heart Hall.
“Mother, what does the ancestor mean?”
“You did well. This person is extremely talented and deserves to be nurtured.”
In a while.
The Crown Prince came out and brought him out of the palace. When he returned to the East Palace, the sky was already dark.
He changed into his blue robe and brought his cousin out.
On the way back.
Zheng Fugui was curious and could not help but ask, “Cousin, why did you take so long to go to the palace?”
“I chose a cultivation method in the armory.”
“Is it very strong?”
“I think so!”
“Then I can practice?”
Bang!
After rewarding him with a knock on the head, Zhang Ronghua glared at him, “When you break through to the Grandmaster Realm, I’ll impart you other cultivation methods.”
“Really?”
Seeing him leave, Zheng Fugui chased after him excitedly, “Cousin, wait for me!”
Back at the residence.
Locking himself in the room and taking out the Five Dragon Spirit Control Belt, it should not be an ordinary belt that could make the empress look sideways.
There were five huge beads on the belt that contained the power of the five elements, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Apart from them, there were also some gems decorating it, causing the belt to look even more extraordinary.
He tried to mobilize a little true essence to enter.
Buzz!
The Five Dragon Spirit Control Belt shook and emitted a gorgeous Five Elements Spiritual Light that enveloped it. At the same time, Zhang Ronghua also understood its use. This was a top-notch spiritual treasure that was not inferior to the Golden Dragon Sword. It formed a space of its own and was a thousand cubic meters. It could store things. Apart from that, it could also borrow the power of the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth to fight enemies.
The higher his cultivation, the greater the power erupted.
“Why did he give me a top-notch spiritual treasure?” Zhang Ronghua was puzzled.
After thinking for a long time, he could not figure out the reason.
Wearing him at his waist made him look more heroic and energetic.
He took out the Black Yellow Heaven Splitting Diagram. The world in the diagram was black and yellow. The extremely terrifying Black Yellow Qi broke through the Chaos and created the world.
He studied it for a moment.
After injecting his true essence, the dead world immediately came alive. A shocking scene appeared in his spiritual sea.
The vast Chaos was endless.
Until one day, the Black Yellow Qi was born. After countless years of brewing, the Black Yellow Qi reached its peak and forcefully opened up the Chaos with extremely terrifying strength, repeating the world.
When his thoughts returned to his main body, he woke up from that special state.
A cultivation method appeared in his mind—Black Yellow Heaven Splitting Technique.
Ancient, obscure, and every word contained the secrets of the heavens, far exceeding any cultivation method he had seen.
Even the Profound Heaven Treasure Mirror was not qualified to be mentioned in front of it.
He endured his excitement and began to cultivate.
It was not until dawn that with his terrifying talent, he barely grasped the basics and learned some slight uses.
