There are no ancestors at all; I made them all up.

Chapter 238 Use my supernatural powers against me?

"Is someone spying on this place?"

Chen Qing and Jiang Shangkun sensed something almost simultaneously and looked in the same direction.

"Could it be that Daoist Taijing has already broken free from the seal?" Chen Qingchu's heart tightened at first, but then he realized that the spying aura was complex and numerous, far beyond the power of one person. He immediately understood: "It's other people from Yujing, and there must be members of the imperial family! If these royal wolves don't show up after you've caused such a commotion, it wouldn't be in line with the status quo of the Immortal Dynasty!"

Jiang Shangkun laughed heartily, then changed the subject: "In this Jade Capital City, there are wolves everywhere. Fellow Daoist, you are currently riding high, and in some people's eyes, you are the perfect stepping stone. Climbing up on your name is a lucrative business!" He seemed completely unconcerned as he spoke!
Chen Qing frowned and said, "Could it be that someone knows how I made my move, and yet they still come to my door on their own initiative?"

Jiang Shangkun then said, "Everyone thinks that once they play their trump card, they will be invincible. The royal family gathers the essence of heaven and earth and the best talents of the immortal dynasty. Do you think they are inferior to you?"

Before the words were even finished, the sound of something cutting through the air could be heard!
Led by the Ninth Prince Xu Wenhao and the Eleventh Prince Xu Wenjin, several members of the imperial clan rode in their escape light and broke through the Yin Sha to arrive here!

They were surrounded by dragon energy, dazzling in their brilliance. The ripples had stimulated the power of their bloodlines, making them all spirited and full of vigor!

"Li Qing! It really is you, you traitor!" The Ninth Prince's gaze was like lightning as he locked onto Chen Qing, then looked at Jiang Shangkun, his voice as cold as ice: "And Jiang Shangkun, you are the court's most wanted criminal, Jiang! Very well, today we will arrest both of you to uphold the laws of our Immortal Dynasty!"

The princes behind him also wore arrogant expressions. Feeling their own bloodline power constantly rising, coupled with the amplification and protection of the Nine Dragon Seal, each of them was convinced that victory was in their grasp! Moreover, influenced by a strange thought, they all lost their composure, their mentality inflated, and they became arrogant and reckless!
The eleventh prince shouted directly, "Surrender and you might be spared a whole corpse! Otherwise, you will be annihilated, body and soul!"

Just then, a flash of clear light appeared in the distance, and Daoist Qingyuan, along with Lu Zhao, Ao Yu, Han Jing Zhenren, and other members of the Hidden Star lineage, arrived in time.

"Junior brother." Daoist Qingyuan looked at Chen Qing with gentle eyes and nodded slightly.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Chen Qing was first surprised, then bowed respectfully: "Sect Leader, when did you emerge from seclusion?"

Despite being in a dangerous situation, the long-awaited reunion brought a strange sense of peace.

"Just a few days ago," Qingyuan Daoist replied with a smile.

Upon seeing the arrival of the Hidden Star Clan, the Ninth Prince sneered repeatedly: "Qingyuan! Does your Hidden Star Sect intend to join forces with this traitor and sever ties with the Immortal Dynasty? Very well, then we will suppress your Hidden Star Sect as well!"

Daoist Qingyuan remained calm and said indifferently, "Ninth Prince, the fortune of the Immortal Dynasty protects my Hidden Star lineage. The survival of the Hidden Star Sect cannot be decided by one person or one word. You are not qualified."

Chen Qing sized up the princes and shook his head inwardly, thinking, "As princes, these few are far inferior to the generation from thousands of years ago. They rely solely on their ancestors' influence and are ignorant of their own limitations."

"Arrogant!" The Ninth Prince's face was filled with anger. Feeling that his dignity had been damaged, he suddenly activated the dragon energy within his body. A phantom projection of a nine-dragon jade seal appeared above his head, radiating a magnificent pressure that suppressed the eight wastelands, and enveloped Qingyuan and his group!

"Then let me show you what the might of the Celestial Dynasty truly is!"

With all these advantages, he was actually going to take action himself, with his target being Daoist Qingyuan and Li Qing and the others!
They actually wanted to take down the Hidden Star Sect Master and the Hidden Star Law Master directly to intimidate the entire audience.

Qingyuan Daoist stepped forward, subtly protecting Chen Qing behind him. A clear light flowed around him, as if a river of stars was flowing, and a righteous aura was brewing in his chest and abdomen. A blurry figure could be vaguely seen behind him!
"Senior brother..." Chen Qing began to speak.

Qingyuan waved his hand slightly: "Leave this person to me. You should focus on your breathing. Don't worry, you will inevitably have another chance to make a move."

He could tell that although Chen Qing had a profound foundation, he was ultimately only a Golden Core cultivator and might suffer some mishaps in the continuous fierce battles, so he took the initiative to step forward and shield him from the calamity.

Seeing this, the Ninth Prince sneered and turned his attention to Chen Qing: "Li Qing! Are you only good at hiding behind others? Could it be that your Xuanmen trump card, which you relied on to be so fierce, has been completely exhausted by the Emperor's incarnation? Haha, if that's the case, now that we have been strengthened by our ancestors and protected by dragon energy, with the balance shifting, what will you use to resist!"

"Each generation is worse than the last!"

Boom!

With a loud bang, the Measuring Sky Boat descended. The Venerable Xuanji on board sighed and said calmly, "Ninth Prince, Li Qing was able to briefly contend with the Holy Emperor's Three Corpse Incarnations. How can you presume to know for sure? What you rely on is merely a wisp of aura left behind by the late Emperor Taiyuan. It is an external force that will eventually come to an end. Don't go looking for trouble. Retreat quickly to avoid needlessly losing your lives."

After saying this, he suddenly turned his gaze to Jiang Shangkun: "You rebellious son of the Jiang family, since you dare to show up here today, fine, then I will take this opportunity to clean up the house for the Jiang family of Yujing!"

Before he could finish speaking, Master Xuanji flicked his sleeve!
In an instant, hundreds and thousands of streaks of light shot out from his sleeves!

All sorts of suppressing talismans and binding magic treasures poured down like a torrential rain, sealing off the space where Jiang Shangkun was, forcibly separating him from Chen Qing and the others from the Hidden Star Sect!

Upon hearing Master Xuanji's words, the Ninth Prince felt a surge of anger rising to his head, thinking to himself, "How dare this old scoundrel underestimate me!" Then he saw that Xuanji had already made his move, his target being the rebel leader Jiang Shangkun, clearly wanting to steal the credit!
"How can I let you have all the glory!"

The Ninth Prince's mind raced, and he had no time to refute. His dragon aura erupted, and a blazing halo as bright as the rising sun leaped out from behind him!

Within the halo, the six realms of Nascent Soul unfold in succession: the rising sun, the billowing sea of ​​clouds, the golden crow patrolling the sky, the light illuminating the mountains and rivers, the midday sun, and the afterglow spreading everywhere!
The six scenes linked together evolved into a magnificent scene of the sun traversing the sky and reigning supreme. With various enhancements and amplifications, its domineering pressure directly approached Daoist Qingyuan!
He wanted to take down the Hidden Star Sect Master with lightning speed and intimidate the entire audience!
Qingyuan Daoist's expression remained unchanged, his sleeves fluttered without wind, and vast primordial energy emanated from his body!
At first, the primordial energy flowed like a babbling brook, but after a breath, it transformed into a vast ocean!
Moreover, that primordial energy was not of a single attribute; it seemed to contain earth, water, fire, wind, and all phenomena of the mortal world, encompassing everything and unfathomable! It steadily supported the Ninth Prince's seemingly magnificent "Great Sun Patrols the Sky" scene and suppressed it!

"What?!" The Ninth Prince felt his surging dragon energy and Nascent Soul Dao realm vanish like mud oxen entering the sea. His strength was dissolved layer by layer, and not only did he fail to achieve anything, but he was also enveloped and pulled by the chaotic and all-encompassing primordial energy, about to lose control. "This is not an ordinary Nascent Soul technique!"

Daoist Qingyuan said slowly, "Your Highness has a profound foundation, but unfortunately you rely too much on external things and do not understand the principle of the primordial chaos and the return of all things to their origin." As he spoke, the primordial chaos aura flowed endlessly, as if it wanted to include the Ninth Prince's Dao Jing into it as well!
Chen Qing, who was standing to the side, witnessed this scene and was immediately moved!
What Senior Brother Qingyuan used was clearly the supreme and wonderful method derived from the "Primordial Qi Scripture", which had reached the realm of perfection!
"The primordial energy is the foundation upon which all things are formed! So that's how it is! Primordial energy is the foundation that carries all laws and the source of all things!" He suddenly understood, and many of his doubts about this incomplete technique became clear. The "pseudo-mysterious gate" in his dantian trembled slightly, and the efficiency of absorbing spiritual energy increased by a notch!
However, the battlefield did not allow him to fully appreciate it.

"Protect His Highness!"

"Capture the traitor!"

Seeing the Ninth Prince suffer a setback, the other princes were both shocked and furious. Together with the royal guards, they unleashed all sorts of magical treasures and secret techniques!
In an instant, the dragon's energy cleaved through the Yin energy, and the imperial talisman shone with golden light!
A barrage of fierce attacks swept towards Chen Qing and his companions like a storm! "Li Qing! You don't even have the courage to face us! Now that we have been strengthened by the dragon energy of our ancestors, we are destined by Heaven. What can you use to resist us? Defeat is your only fate!"

Chen Qing awoke from the afterglow of enlightenment with a cold look in his eyes. Instead of retreating, he advanced. The insights he had gained during his previous state of detachment from worldly desires welled up from the bottom of his heart. A point of starlight shone from his fingertip, and like a skilled butcher dissecting an ox, he pointed at the nodes of spiritual energy and the weak points of the laws that were attacking him!
"break!"

"break!"

"break!"

Where the starlight passed, the dragon's aura mourned, the talisman dimmed, and the sharp sword energy deflected, crashing into the attack on the other side!

He strolled leisurely amidst the dazzling light, his figure elusive, and no one could stop him for a moment. He even swept his divine sense over the crowd, seeing through their true nature!
"Two are at the initial Nascent Soul stage, four are at the Golden Core stage, and one... a pseudo-Nascent Soul stage barely raised by pills? The foundation is weak, all show and no substance."

Chen Qing immediately realized that although these princes seemed imposing, their cultivation levels were mostly built up by resources. Compared with cultivators who had truly fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, they lacked the tempering and refinement gained from life and death.

However, just as he was handling the situation with ease, a sense of unease suddenly arose in his mind!
As he scanned the area with his divine sense, he vaguely sensed a hidden undercurrent, lurking in the shadows but holding back its attack.

"Could it be..."

Just then, the eleventh prince, Xu Wenjin, used a strange movement technique, appearing within three feet of Chen Qing as if by teleportation, his fingertips holding a point of eerie light, stabbing straight at Chen Qing's back!
This sneak attack was extremely sudden and the angle was tricky!
But Chen Qing seemed to have eyes in the back of his head. Just before the ghostly light touched his body, he slightly turned his body and opened his mouth to spit it out!
Blood splattered like swords!
"Qiang!"

A crisp sound!
The insidious magic weapon at the eleventh prince's fingertip shattered instantly!

"puff!"

The sword energy, still powerful, broke through his protective dragon aura and struck his chest!

Xu Wenjin screamed and flew backward, crashing into the dark swamp in the distance, splashing up a large wave of mud. She was caught and submerged by several pale arms! She fell silent!

The entire room fell silent instantly!
The princes and guards who had been aggressively besieging Chen Qing were all momentarily stunned.

"Oh!"

On the other side, with a muffled thud, Ninth Prince Xu Wenhao staggered back seven steps, each step leaving a deep footprint in the black swamp ground, from which smoke rose!

The blazing dragon aura emanating from his body dimmed considerably, clearly indicating that he had suffered a significant loss under the oppressive force of Qingyuan Daoist's all-encompassing and all-powerful divine power.

As the surge of blood pressure rose to his throat, Xu Wenhao's eyes flashed with surprise, doubt, anger, and fear.

As a prince of the Immortal Dynasty, blessed with the fortune of the Nine Dragon Seal and the legacy of the late Emperor Taiyuan, how could he be so humiliated in front of the sect leader of a declining sect? This is an utter disgrace! Once word gets out, how will he ever have the face to compete for a position again?

"This can't go on!"

As his thoughts raced, Xu Wenhao's gaze swept over his younger brother, who was still intimidated by Chen Qing, and he said sternly, "My brothers, follow me to form the Seven Dragons Shaking the Heavens Formation! This group of traitors has clearly planned this all along, their methods are cunning and their preparations are thorough, all of which are aimed at us! We have only encountered this rashly, and if we continue to fight individually, we will surely be defeated one by one! Only by joining forces can we crush these sinister forces with our overwhelming power!"

As he spoke, he roared, his dragon energy exploding like boiling water, his long hair soaring into the sky, his body radiating golden flames. With a leap, he forcefully broke free from Qingyuan Daoist's Primordial Chaos Manifestation.

Upon hearing this, the other six princes immediately understood and, with a sway of their bodies, took their positions according to the Big Dipper constellation, surrounding the Ninth Prince in the center.

"Roar!"

The seven people's auras were connected, and the powerful dragon energy gathered above their heads, transforming into seven slightly illusory yet majestic projections of the Nine Dragon Jade Seal!

The rise and fall of the imperial seal triggered the mysterious laws of the imperial way, causing this gloomy and desolate land to tremble!

A vast and ancient ripple emanated from them, resonating and merging into the great formation!

The Legacy of the Taiyuan Era!

hum!
With the blessing of the legacy, the Seven Dragons Formation shone brightly, and the aura of the seven princes rose steadily, showing a tendency to contend with or even suppress Qingyuan Daoist!
The majestic imperial aura was so overwhelming that even Jiang Shangkun, who was enduring the bombardment of hundreds of treasures with his bare body in the distance, and Xuanji Shangren, who was controlling the Measuring Sky Boat, couldn't help but take a second look.

Daoist Qingyuan's expression was solemn. His hands were already forming a hand seal in his sleeve, and the flow of primordial energy was becoming even faster. Behind him, there was a glimpse of a Nascent Soul about to manifest. At the same time, he reminded Chen Qing beside him, "Junior Brother, be careful! They are already blessed and amplified by the imperial seal, and they are connected by bloodline energy. Their cultivation has been accumulated, and they have also attracted the legacy of the late Emperor Taiyuan. The power of this formation is extraordinary. We cannot confront it head-on!"

"The legacy of the Taiyuan Immortal Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing's expression turned strange.

He could clearly sense that the so-called "legacy of Taiyuan" originated from the scenery outside his own Stele Forest! It was a trace of aura that had inadvertently dissipated when the scenery resonated with the murals, and that the princes had accidentally absorbed and incorporated it.

"This... they actually used my power to empower themselves and then turned against me? Is there anything more absurd than this?"
