Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 12 Immortal-Level Inheritance, Supreme Imperial Dragon Secret Manual!
In the original novel, Xiao Yun won first place in the Qinglian Academy competition, which gave him the opportunity to bathe in the Dragon Spring Blood Pool and gain enlightenment from the Great Dao Stele, thus allowing his strength to advance by leaps and bounds.

Both the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Qinglian Academy are super powers in the Northern Divine Continent, and in fact, there is no difference in their levels.

However, Qinglian Academy was, after all, located within the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there were some vested interests involved.

To be honest, Qinglian Academy was founded earlier than the Great Zhou Dynasty and has a longer history.

In the vast Northern Divine Continent, perhaps only those ancient forces, such as the Primordial Holy Land and the Burial Sword Pavilion, can rival it.

"Now that you've been rewarded, you should naturally go and comprehend the Great Dao Stele. You can't waste this opportunity."

Li Qiye said with a smile.

He stretched, and a crackling sound came from his body.

Since obtaining the Ancient Sacred Body, Li Qiye's posture has become even more upright, but a hint of laziness is revealed between his brows.

"This 'playing it cool' system is really demotivating. Being stuck in this 'playing it cool' every day is really wearing down my fighting spirit..."

"But just lazing around like this every day, being a salted fish doesn't seem so bad."

However, at that moment, the system's voice rang in Li Qiye's mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully abandoned your efforts and obtained the Immortal-level Inheritance Supreme Imperial Dragon Secret Manual!]

On the way to the palace.

Information about the Supreme Imperial Dragon Scripture surfaced in Li Qiye's mind.

It is said that this Supreme Imperial Dragon Scripture was created by the powerful dragon clan member, the Imperial Dragon Daoist.

This cultivation technique has reached the immortal level. Could it be from the immortal realm?
However, this level is too far from Li Qiye's reach.

Li Qiye's gaze returned to the Supreme Imperial Dragon Secret Manual.

This immortal-level cultivation technique also includes martial arts skills, all of which are extremely exquisite.

"This Supreme Emperor Dragon Secret Manual is more suitable for dragons to cultivate. To unleash the full power of this technique, humans need to deliberately imitate the posture of dragons."

Li Qiye muttered to himself.

Ultimately, it is the legacy of the dragon race.

Li Qiye fell into deep thought and unknowingly arrived outside the palace.

The imperial edict was taken out, and soon a eunuch rushed over, his face full of respect, and said, "Your Highness, this servant is Xiao Xuanzi. Please follow behind this servant and do not wander off."

"Hurry up and lead the way."

Li Qiye nodded, seemingly unconcerned.

According to palace rules, princes must leave the palace once they turn twelve.

Otherwise, given his youthful vigor and the presence of so many maids in the palace, some problems were bound to arise.

The young Xuanzi hurriedly led the way.

As they walked through a garden, they found it filled with blooming flowers and teeming with mythical creatures.

Seeing Li Qiye and his companion pass by, they looked over curiously.

At the same time, I also saw many palace maids busy at work.

"Li Qiye!"

At this moment, a cold voice was heard.

Not far ahead, a graceful and elegant woman suddenly stood.

The woman was strikingly beautiful, but there was a fierce look in her eyes, clearly indicating she was no pushover.

This is Consort De, the mother of the Third Prince and the Sixth Prince.

"Greetings, Consort De."

Xiao Xuanzi stopped and bowed.

"Keep leading the way."

Li Qiye said calmly.

After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Xuanzi ultimately did not dare to disobey the tenth prince and forced himself to walk forward.

"Li Qiye, I just called you, why didn't you answer?"

Consort De looked coldly at Li Qiye, her expression growing even colder.

But Li Qiye didn't even glance at him, as if he hadn't heard a thing, and continued walking forward with an indifferent expression.

"You have no respect for elders and have no regard for your seniors. Today, I will teach you court etiquette on behalf of your deceased mother."

"That's what Consort De said in a cold voice. The next moment, Consort De exuded a sharp aura, and the surrounding flowers were covered with a layer of frost under this aura, and the surrounding air became colder.

"The Northwest is a long and arduous journey, so Your Highness, please remind Sixth Brother to be careful."

Li Qiye finally stopped and said indifferently.

Consort De's hand, which was in mid-air, froze. Her lips twitched, and her phoenix eyes were filled with coldness.

"Li Qiye, are you threatening me?"

"If that's what Your Majesty thinks, then so be it."

Li Qiye said casually.

The next moment, the two brushed past each other.

Consort De's hand remained motionless in the air the entire time.

"Ha ha……"

A meaningful, cold laugh came from not far away.

Empress De was furious and slammed her palm into the artificial hill not far away, causing it to explode.

"Bastard, you ill-mannered thing!"

Consort De cursed.

At this moment, she hated Li Qiye to the core and wished she could tear him to pieces.

However, she didn't dare to do that, so she could only vent her anger elsewhere.

If she were to attack the prince, she would be digging her own grave; no one could save her, and even her entire family would suffer.

For some hidden old monsters in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the empress and imperial concubines in the palace are all outsiders.

Only those with legitimate royal blood are considered members of the royal family.

Upon learning that Li Yunrui had been exiled to the Northwest, Consort De panicked.

She wanted to plead for him with His Majesty, but His Majesty refused to see her.

From that moment on, Consort De knew in her heart that the matter was settled and there was no possibility of change.

Therefore, Consort De transferred all her anger to Li Qiye.

Even if she was punished, she would take the opportunity to teach Li Qiye a lesson.

Unexpectedly, Consort De gave up just because of one sentence from Li Qiye.

She couldn't risk her son's life just to vent her own frustrations.

What if something happens to my son on his way to the Northwest?
"The Tenth Prince is indeed formidable; he actually managed to subdue Consort De."

As they were about to reach their destination, Xiao Xuanzi couldn't help but say something.

He was terrified, fearing a conflict might break out between the two sides.

No matter who gets injured, he will definitely be the unluckiest person.

Li Qiye shook his head and said nothing.

If Consort De insists on taking action, Li Qiye wouldn't mind finding an opportunity for them to meet in the underworld.

A chilling killing intent flashed, sending a shiver down Xiao Xuanzi's spine.

He felt that he had just been too frightened and hadn't recovered yet.

"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Dragon Spring Blood Pool!"

Xiao Xuanzi stopped and spoke.

Soaking in the Longquan Blood Pool can cleanse the marrow and nourish the body, as well as soothe the spirit.

The spiritual spring in the Dragon Spring Blood Pool is not inexhaustible; each time it is used, some of it will be used up, and one day it will be exhausted.

That's why the Dragon Spring Blood Pool is so precious, and only princes have the opportunity to bathe in it once during their coming-of-age ceremony.

Li Qiye had already taken a bath once before, but due to his limited talent at the time, he didn't gain anything.

"I wonder if this time will be the same as before?"

Li Qiye thought to himself.

However, this time I was in a very peaceful state of mind, treating it as just a hot spring soak.
