Chapter 500: Chapter 312: Drawing Lots and Success

"Assassinate the Emperor, eliminate the driver, host, you have surpassed the Super God. Special reward of 15,000 Villain Points."

In the woods, Qing Yu, who was dashing hurriedly, stopped in his tracks, ’Only the reward for assassinating the Emperor? It seems that to obtain the reward for usurping the throne, I’ll have to wait until Feng Jiu officially ascends to it.’

"System, exchange 20,000 Villain Points for two high-level draws."

Qing Yu had already possessed 8,500 Villain Points, and with this additional 15,000 points, two high-level draws were more than sufficient.

"High-level draw, drawing now..."

"Ding, congratulations host, you have obtained a Four-star item, Dragon Ball, and a Five and a half star item, ’Heaven and Earth Supreme Skill’."

"Dragon Ball? If it’s four stars, from which work did it originate?" Qing Yu wondered.

In his memory, the most impactful was naturally the Dragon Essence; as for other dragon-related treasures, he didn’t have much impression of them.

Qing Yu opened the system space, looking at the spherical object filled with golden radiance.

Item: Dragon Ball

Star Level: Four Stars

Function: Aid and develop potential, the Martial Arts version of a collapsing jade

Evaluation: This is the Eight Dragon Balls, not the Seven Dragon Balls.

"So, it’s this item," Qing Yu realized.

This version of the Dragon Ball hailed from a certain roaring emperor’s TV series, a sacred object guarded by the Chamu Clan in the peripheral areas of the original work.

The eight Dragon Balls, seemingly with different functions—some could grant eternal youth, others could greatly enhance one’s power—these effects all change according to the desires of the user’s heart.

The true function of the Dragon Ball is to increase potential and develop potential in the direction the user desires, its effects bear a close similarity to the collapsing jade from a certain migrant worker anime.

However, a four-star Dragon Ball will definitely not reach the effects of collapsing jade.

"This item does have some use," Qing Yu said with a smile.

For Qing Yu, the Dragon Ball was a cultivation accelerator; although a four-star one would only last him until the peak of the True Pill Realm, it was enough.

As for the other item, the Five and a half star ’Heaven and Earth Supreme Skill’, it was far incomparable to the Dragon Ball.

’Heaven and Earth Supreme Skill’ originated from the Divine Weapon World, created by the ancient wise man, Fu Xi.

Fu Xi, with his unmatched intelligence, delved into the mysteries of Qiankun and thus established the principles of Two Forms, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Eight Diagrams.

He also penetrated the Heavenly Mechanism and understood the everlasting generating force of the Heavenly Earthly Two Forms, which were extremely compatible with the human body’s meridians and acupoints. He created a set of martial arts that could nourish life and longevity, with strength enough to shake the heavens and move the earth.

’Heaven and Earth Supreme Skill’ was divided into three volumes: Heaven, Earth, and Sovereign, respectively called the Heavenly Gang Qi Decision, Earth Dominating Technique, and Supreme Technique.

The realms of the Supreme Technique could generate ’Pure Yin Xuan Qi’ and ’Fierce Yang Gang Qi’, two mighty Yin Yang Inner Strengths, each possessing the power to slice through steel and break down walls. Upon reaching Great Success, the combination of the two energies would allow one to advance to the True Pill Realm.

The Earth Dominating Technique began its cultivation in the True Pill Realm, emphasizing the union of Yin Yang Inner Strength and also connecting with the Earth Veins to draw in Earth Essence Qi, amplifying one’s own power tenfold. At this high realm, one’s strength could grow exponentially, and at the realm’s peak, one would be virtually invincible.

As for the last, Heavenly Gang Qi Decision, the inner and outer heavens and earth combine as one, one’s power turning golden, regrowing limbs, projection of the Primordial Spirit, command over the Five Elements—its marvelous mysteries are unspeakable.

This Martial Arts skill could be considered the solution to Qing Yu’s urgent needs. After reaching the True Pill Realm, Qing Yu’s Martial Arts began to hit a bottleneck.

His Martial Arts were only Five Stars with the Ten Thousand Paths, with all other Martial Arts skills within the Four Star range. Skills like the Dao Heart Demon Planting Great Method from the system, and the Zhenwu Sect’s Four Symbols Ultimate Skills, all fall within this range.

There’s also his self-created Circulation of the Six Voids Technique, despite combining the Four Symbols Ultimate Skills, Yin Yang Technique, ’Zhou Yi’ and other Absolute Skills and Divine Skills; but due to Qing Yu’s own foundation, although this Martial Arts skill has been continuously supplemented as Qing Yu progressed, ultimately it’s difficult to break through the Four-Star limit.

Even with its creator not having reached the peak of the True Pill Realm, the Circulation of the Six Voids Technique still had significant flaws in some profound and intricate aspects.

Now, with ’Heaven and Earth Supreme Skill’, this problem was easily solved.

Moreover, Fu Xi, the definer of Two Forms, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Eight Diagrams, meant that this Martial Art was very much aligned with Qing Yu.

"Feng Tianming has enabled me to gain such a harvest; it’s not ill-deserved for my struggles."

With a light chuckle, Qing Yu’s figure once again shifted illusorily, flickering as he exited the small woods.

This place wasn’t exactly auspicious; it was wise to leave sooner rather than later.

Meanwhile, as Qing Yu made his way to the Divine Capital, in the underground palace beneath the Imperial Palace, the Returning Dragon Technique finally reached success.

Three golden Divine Dragons burst forth from within Feng Jiu, spiraling around him several times before flying into three columns of golden Qi.

The Returning Dragon Technique had succeeded.

The Dragon Vein was originally formed by suppressing and gathering with the bones of Feng Family’s ancestors, which is why it had a very high compatibility with Feng Jiu, who possessed Dragon Vein Qi and cultivated the Phoenix Sky Strategy.

Moreover, with Feng Tianming dead, the Returning Dragon Technique was successfully executed without any mishaps, and Feng Jiu fully gained control over the Nine Dragon Sky Array.

Glancing around, feeling the subtle resonance from the three pillars of Qi, Feng Jiu could no longer hold back and burst into hearty laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha... Twenty years, a full twenty years, I, Feng Jiu, have finally reversed my own destiny and become the Emperor of Northern Zhou."

Reflecting on the childhood memories of being bullied by the other Princes for the first time, Feng Jiu couldn’t help but sigh. Even he couldn’t have imagined that the wish he made in his childhood would come true.

Those days seemed just like yesterday.

But who would have thought, in this battle for the throne, the victor was neither the most highly regarded Eighth Prince Feng Qiwu nor the most powerful Sixth Prince Feng Chaonan, nor any other princes, but him—the one considered a waste among the princes—Feng Jiu.

Feng Jiu strode forward confidently, although he was in a dark and deserted underground palace, he felt as if he was walking under the gaze of thousands.

The weight of past years had pressed down on Feng Jiu harshly, but now that he was able to truly stand tall, even the deep-seated and steady Feng Jiu was somewhat agitated.

"Next, it’s the Academy and the elder princess."

A sharp glint passed through Feng Jiu’s eyes; just overcoming this hurdle would make the ascension to the throne a matter of course.

And this hurdle was actually much easier than imagined.

The Academy stays out of politics—that was iron law. As long as Feng Jiu didn’t overstep, everything was open to negotiation.

At least, they had no evidence to prove that Feng Jiu was the mastermind behind these events, even the theft of the Nine Dragon Sky Array could be portrayed as protecting his brothers and the citizens of Divine Capital.

Furthermore, with Feng Jiu’s momentum already established, he was not someone who could be easily brought down.
