Translator: 549690339
After commanding the Underworld Dragon to land, Yang Chen looked around and nodded in satisfaction.” Not bad, the environment here is indeed quieter.””
Immediately, Yang Chen opened his right hand. The Dao Integration Pearl flickered with golden light and slowly appeared in his right hand.
Looking at the Dao Integration Pearl, the Underworld Dragon’s dragon eyes were filled with desire. The Underworld Dragon could still clearly remember that it was because of this Dao Integration Pearl that it was able to break through to the Demon Venerable realm.
Now that the Dao Integration Pearl had appeared again, did that not mean that it could break through to the Demon King realm?
As expected, Yang Chen laughed and said,””Underworld dragon, you’re about to break through to the demon king realm. Are you ready?”
When the Underworld Dragon heard this, it quickly nodded its head.
Seeing this, Chen Yang gave the order,” Dao Integration Pearl, raise the Earth Dragon’s cultivation level to Demon King.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Dao Integration Pearl emitted a dazzling golden light.
Immediately after, a terrifying and pure energy surged out of the Dao Integration Pearl and surged into the Underworld Dragon’s body along with the golden light.
“Roar!”
As the energy entered his body, the Underworld Dragon instantly felt a bone-piercing pain.
With a painful roar, the Underworld Dragon endured the pain and crawled on the ground, accepting the increase in energy.
As time passed, the Underworld Dragon’s aura became stronger and stronger.
In the end, after two hours, the Underworld Dragon let out another dragon roar.
“Roar!”
Accompanied by the dragon’s roar, the Underworld Dragon’s cultivation officially broke through the Demon Venerable barrier and successfully advanced to the Demon King realm!
Terrifying auras spread out in all directions, forming tornadoes that scattered in all directions.
For a moment, the area within a hundred miles was filled with this terrifying aura. Some of the Tier 1 demon beasts that were staying here could not help but prostrate on the ground.
Sensing this terrifying aura, these demon beasts trembled as they looked at the origin of the aura. The instinct that originated from their bloodline told them that a new king had appeared!
“Roar!”
After letting out another dragon roar, the Underworld Dragon circled in the air excitedly until Yang Chen switched positions before landing.
Sensing the terrifying aura of the Underworld Dragon, Yang Chen smiled and nodded.” It’s not easy. I’ve finally reached the Monster King level.””
The Underworld Dragon nodded. It was indeed not easy. It had been painful for two hours.
Seeing that the Underworld Dragon had successfully broken through, Yang Chen didn’t waste any time and rode the Underworld Dragon back to the Chen family.
After the Hell Earthwyrm broke through to become a Demon King, his speed had also increased significantly. He successfully arrived at the Chen family in a day after traveling 5,000 miles.
After putting away the Underworld Dragon, Yang Chen stretched lazily and then rushed to his courtyard.
When Yang Chen returned to his own courtyard, he found that the Great Elder was in his own courtyard.
“Great Elder, it’s already dark. What are you doing here?” Yang Chen asked.”
When Chen Xuan saw Chen Yang coming over, he revealed a relieved smile.” Master, you’re finally back.””
“Why? Did something happen?” Yang Chen asked.
“Sect Master Wang Shuo came to our house three days ago. It seems like he has something urgent to discuss with you. He has been waiting for you in the reception hall.”Chen Xuan explained.
Hearing this, Yang Chen quickly went to the reception hall.
In the hall, Wang Shuo was sipping tea. When Yang Chen saw this, he quickly said,”I’m very sorry for making Sect Master Wang wait for so long.””
Wang Shuo put down his teacup and stood up.””It’s fine, it’s fine. Brother Chen is busy. It’s fine if 1 wait a little longer.”
Yang Chen returned to his seat and asked,””Sect Master Wang has been waiting for me in the reception hall.”
When Wang Shuo heard this, he nodded with a serious expression.” Brother Chen, do you know about the battle for the crown prince?”
The Crown Prince’s battle? Yang Chen frowned and then asked,”What? The King is going to choose an heir?””
“That’s right.” Wang Shuo nodded.” The inheritance system in Da Qian is different from other dynasties. As a direct descendant of the Zhou family, you can compete for the position of Human King.”
“Furthermore, the position of Human King is not only about power, but also about fighting for a spot.”
“A quota? What quota?” Yang Chen asked.
“The position of Human King is like a seed to the Zhou clan,” explained Wang Shuo.”
“If one can become a Human King, they can be temporarily nurtured by the Zhou Consortium as a stepping stone. They can enjoy a large amount of resources from the Zhou Consortium.”
“Temporarily?” Yang Chen looked at Wang Shuo in confusion. So what if it was a seed?
Every family had plans to nurture their geniuses as seeds of a certain realm, but no one had heard of it before.
“Yes, temporarily. The Zhou Consortium had a rule that after becoming a Human King, the Zhou Consortium would give you 300 years.
Within 300 years, if you can meet the requirements of the Zhou Consortium, then the Zhou Consortium will do their best to nurture you.”
“If you can’t meet the requirements of the Zhou clan, then I’m sorry, but you’ll have to step down from your position as the Human King, and the Zhou clan’s descendants will start a new competition for the seeds to ascend the stage.”Wang Shuo explained.
Yang Chen understood, he finally understood the Zhou Consortium’s seed competition.
To put it bluntly, this kind of competition meant that there were not many resources. They could only choose one more and see if they could choose a genius.
This way, he could save a lot of resources.
Moreover, after 300 years of nurturing, even if the geniuses nurtured could not reach the stage, they would still become the top experts of the Zhou clan after 300 years of nurturing..
