Chapter 24: Second round of comparison, I should be 50/50 with Senior Brother
"Back then, your mother was forced by the Dayan Dynasty's power to marry the Crown Prince Ji Huamao because she awakened the Fire Phoenix Saint Body."
"The Dayan Dynasty has been passed down with fire-system bloodlines and possesses many fire-system Qi Refining inheritances, and also masters a special secret method."
"As long as the direct descendants of the Dayan Dynasty practice dual cultivation with others, they can use this method to harvest the power of the other party's fire-system physique to supplement their own physique and cultivation..."
Zhao Hongying said this, and Ji Yanling frowned, saying coldly.
"Isn't this kind of harvesting technique an evil art? Is there no one to manage him?"
Zhao Hongying sighed helplessly.
"Although the way of harvesting is not tolerated by the world, this method of the Dayan Dynasty is relatively special. It only targets specific physiques and does not pose much threat to the interests of others, so there is no one who rises up to attack it."
Hearing this, Ji Yanling shook her head. She certainly knew the key to this.
The so-called prohibition of evil arts and the suppression of evil cultivators are generally because they have moved the interests of too many people.
This Dayan Dynasty's secret method is completely playing on the edge of the law and will not cause public anger. Those forces with the strength to oppose the Dayan Dynasty are naturally too lazy to take action.
Even whether those major forces are engaged in this kind of edge-playing is another matter, so how could they come to be this righteous person.
The so-called distinction between good and evil is just a difference in stance.
Zhao Hongying continued to tell the story, and Ji Yanling finally understood.
Her Fire Phoenix Saint Body is the best stepping stone for this Dayan Dynasty, so even if she unilaterally cuts off relations with the Dayan Dynasty, the other party will not easily give up.
Ji Yanling secretly rejoiced that she had chosen to stimulate this hidden physique only after leaving the Dayan Dynasty, otherwise she would absolutely not have had the opportunity to leave that place.
Thinking of this, she suddenly trembled in her heart and thought of one thing.
"I just said why my body in this life hadn't awakened its physique until I was eighteen. It turns out it was deliberately hidden!"
As for who hid her physique, Ji Yanling had already guessed.
It was her mother, who didn't have many memories, the previous generation's princess of the Chihuo Dynasty.
Ji Yanling didn't have many memories of this mother. She vaguely remembered that she was a very beautiful and gentle woman.
And her mother, in order not to let her fall into the same fate as herself, perhaps used some secret techniques while pregnant to completely seal the physique.
Thinking of this, a surge of anger emerged in Ji Yanling's heart.
Not toward her mother, but toward that Dayan Dynasty.
The original Ji Yanling didn't want to have much karma with this Dayan Dynasty, but now it seems that before she was even born, this karma had already been formed.
As a dignified Empress, her birth mother was killed by others, and now the other party has set their sights on her.
If this hatred is not avenged, the inner demon will not disappear!
"This Dayan Dynasty must be destroyed!"
Ji Yanling thought so, but she knew very well that this must be planned carefully.
At least she had to wait until she was sealed as a King to have this strength.
"The system's comparison is about to start soon. After finishing the comparison with Senior Brother and obtaining the system reward, I should be able to break through to the Primordial Spirit Realm quickly, and the Wang Realm won't be far away!"
Ji Yanling thought this way and bid farewell to Zhao Hongying, flying toward Tianjian Peak on her sword.
Zhao Hongying didn't say anything stupid like asking her to return to the Chihuo Dynasty with her. She knew that the Princess was safest only by staying in the Youxian Sect.
Even if the Chihuo Dynasty royal family became a running dog for the Dayan Dynasty and used the Zhao family to threaten Zhao Hongying, she would not let the Princess take risks.
But Ji Yanling couldn't go, yet she couldn't bear it.
Her family and friends were all in the Chihuo Dynasty, and now facing threats, she had to go back and find a way.
"Your Highness, please cultivate here with peace of mind, Hongying will go first!"
Tianjian Peak.
Peach Blossom Forest.
Ji Yanling saw Han Yu, who was drinking and sleeping, and for some reason, felt a sense of relaxation in her heart.
"Fortunately, Senior Brother didn't cultivate bitterly in secret. It seems I will definitely win this comparison!"
This thought had just emerged, and Ji Yanling felt a sense of shame.
"Ji Yanling, oh Ji Yanling, you felt Senior Brother had no talent before and told him to spend more time on cultivation. Now that you've found Senior Brother is not a waste, you're afraid he'll surpass you by cultivating in secret. You're really hypocritical!"
After criticizing herself in her heart, Ji Yanling collected her mind, sat down beside Han Yu, and secretly looked at the system.
【The second round of comparison is about to begin, please be prepared.】
Hum—
Ji Yanling's consciousness came to the system space, and Han Yu's figure appeared opposite.
【The content of this comparison is "Qi Refining Cultivation". To make the comparison effect more significant, both sides' Qi Refining cultivation has been visualized!】
Boom—
As soon as the system's voice fell, Ji Yanling's Qi Refining cultivation exploded, turning into a lifelike fire bird, looking extremely powerful.
Looking at her visualized Qi Refining cultivation, Ji Yanling was very satisfied.
"I have completed eight refinements of the Immortal Platform platform and am one step away from reaching the Immortal Platform Extreme Realm. Senior Brother will definitely not be my opponent."
Before the thought had finished, only hearing a boom, the "Han Yu" opposite's Qi Refining cultivation exploded, turning into a three-foot green sword, looking plain and unremarkable.
"Hi, you scared me. I thought Senior Brother's Qi Refining cultivation was stronger than mine. It looks like it's much weaker!"
Ji Yanling had just breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the fiery red bird rush toward the three-foot green sword, but before it could get close, the sword body vibrated suddenly, and strands of sword energy burst out.
In just an instant, it tore the fiery red bird into slag.
【Ding! It's a pity, this comparison failed. The failure penalty task is about to be issued to you.】
The system's voice came, and Ji Yanling's consciousness returned.
She was full of question marks, pointed at her Senior Brother who was sleeping soundly on the side, then pointed at herself, and shouted angrily in her heart.
"System, are you playing with this Empress? Don't tell me my Senior Brother is also stronger than me in Qi Refining!"
"Do you think I will believe it? Ah!"
Facing Ji Yanling's accusation, the system responded faintly.
【Ding! Reporting to the host, this system's comparison is fair and just. If there is any error, I am willing to compensate ten thousand times!】
【Please recognize your own shortcomings and complete the failure penalty as soon as possible!】
Although the system's voice was a mechanical sound without emotion, Ji Yanling could hear full contempt and disdain from the content of the words.
"Good, good, good, so that's how you play!"
Ji Yanling gritted her silver teeth, her face full of unwillingness.
She immediately shook Han Yu awake from the grass and shouted coquettishly: "Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I'm back, wake up quickly!"
Han Yu rubbed his eyes and hiccuped from the wine. He originally had some morning temper, but seeing it was Ji Yanling, he immediately smiled.
"Junior Sister, you're back. That's really great. Come, Senior Brother will treat you to a good meal, hic~"
Han Yu was sincerely happy and had to reward his Junior Sister well.
This was his good Junior Sister. During this period, she had been cultivating bitterly, and the system had given him many feedbacks.
Now, just by relying on his Qi Refining cultivation, he could fight a Wang Realm powerhouse.
Seeing Senior Brother so happy, Ji Yanling felt a warmth in her heart, but she still didn't forget her question.
She went straight to the point and asked.
"Senior Brother, can you tell me what your cultivation is?"
"Ah?"
Han Yu was a bit surprised, but he didn't cover it up and said directly.
"Almost at the Condensing Dan Realm, right?"
"Ah? Senior Brother, your cultivation is also so fast?"
Ji Yanling was a bit surprised. It seems Senior Brother's talent is not inferior to hers, actually having similar cultivation to her.
However, she was not too surprised and indicated that she could accept it.
But Ji Yanling was still very unconvinced and asked angrily in her heart.
"System, even if Senior Brother's Qi Refining cultivation is similar to mine, it's impossible to defeat me instantly. You still say you didn't make a mistake?"
"In Qi Refining, at the same realm, I should at most be 50/50 with Senior Brother!"
