Ten years of dormancy: Starting as a martial arts master at the pinnacle

"What if I don't agree?"

The emperor of Qi secretly issued an order.

His bodyguards would act immediately upon receiving his signal.

Activate the grand formation of the Qi Kingdom's royal palace and notify the Qi Kingdom's patriarch.

Even if the Qi emperor's secret guards didn't notify him, someone else would still do it once Li Changqing unleashed his power.

But when will that be?

Given their current relationship with Li Changqing, and the strength of this Supreme Regent Prince.

The sooner they act, the better.

The Emperor of Qi thought he was being discreet, but little did he know that Li Changqing had been watching all his actions.

Li Changqing did not stop it.

This enormous innate spiritual bone was being protected by some kind of power. Li Changqing sensed it and felt it was probably the power of some kind of formation.

He considered forcing a breakthrough, which, given Li Changqing's strength, wouldn't actually be difficult.

But he couldn't tell how long it would take him to do that.

The power that protects the innate spiritual bone is enough to contend with a supreme realm expert.

Li Changqing, unfortunately, did not have the advantage in terms of absolute strength.

There's nothing we can do about it; his path to martial arts supremacy follows the path of Divine Martial Tai Chi.

Shenwu Tai Chi Chuan is a first-rate martial art, both in terms of its profound martial arts principles and its defensive combat applications.

Unfortunately, they lack explosive power.

Although Tai Chi Chuan also has its own explosive methods, which martial arts master who has reached the supreme level does not have such methods?

They not only possessed it, but they were also terrifyingly strong.

In comparison, Tai Chi is somewhat lacking in explosive power.

Li Changqing sensed that the other party's power was connected to the earth's veins.

Although the State of Qi did not have the assistance of the three great artifacts, their emperor was unable to unleash strength comparable to the peak of the Supreme Realm.

But this does not mean that they cannot set up some formations by connecting the earth's veins, just like the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Just like now.

After the guard left, Li Changqing noticed that the earth's veins throughout the palace began to frantically draw power from the surrounding area.

Even the power protecting the innate spiritual bones is being depleted.

The original 100% protection was quickly reduced to 90%, then 80%.

Li Changqing's face remained expressionless, seemingly in no hurry to take action.

But in his heart, he couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Just as he had thought, this formation required the power of the earth's veins to maintain it. It was precisely because of this that it was able to withstand the sneak attack from a Supreme Realm expert.

According to Qi's initial plan, anyone with a Supreme Realm level of power who wanted to obtain this Innate Spirit Bone was welcome to do so.

He was bound to confront the formation head-on.

This formation doesn't need to completely withstand the attacks of a Supreme Realm expert; it only needs to hold them off for a short while.

The Qi Kingdom's royal palace's formation, as well as their ancestor, were able to be activated and launched a surprise attack in time.

The emperor of Qi was completely unaware that he had fallen into a trap.

Seeing that the time was almost up and the formation was about to be completed, the Emperor of Qi revealed a sinister smile.

"Your Highness is being far too presumptuous."

This young Supreme Regent is indeed exceptionally powerful, but he is still quite young.

Unlike other supreme beings, they may not like to use any underhanded tricks, but that does not mean they don't.

In fact, with the experience of those old guys, they only need to take a quick look to basically see what their opponent is trying to do.

They are simply used to being strong and solving problems with their fists, and they don't want to complicate things.

Otherwise, these old guys would be the most brilliant strategists.

Li Changqing was only seventeen years old and had previously grown up among the common people.

Even if he has some wisdom and some ingenious ideas.

He is no match for truly seasoned politicians.

"The formation is now..."

Just as the Emperor of Qi was about to speak, intending to make a few sarcastic remarks to the other party...

He noticed that Li Changqing, who was standing opposite him, suddenly had a bright look in his eyes.

"Thirty percent!"

Ultimately, the formation protecting the innate spiritual bone was reduced to only 30% of its original power.

The power of the formation no longer decreased; in fact, it showed an increasing trend.

Ignoring everything else, Li Changqing immediately reached out and grabbed at the innate spiritual bone.

"boom!"

The supreme true energy clashed with the protective formation, and for a moment they were evenly matched.

Li Changqing narrowed his eyes. Given the current strength of the formation, it would take him dozens of breaths to break it.

If he doesn't find a way to get the other side to activate the earth's veins, it will take him at least fifteen minutes to break the formation.

By then, the patriarch of the Qi state would probably have arrived long ago.

In fact, the moment Li Changqing touched the formation, he felt a powerful and ancient aura rapidly awaken.

"Who dares to trespass into the royal palace of my Qi Kingdom?"

The patriarch of Qi has awakened and will arrive here in less than ten breaths.

"So your goal really is to obtain innate spiritual bones?"

The Emperor of Qi found it somewhat unbelievable. In his mind, Li Changqing must have had ulterior motives.

How could his goal really be just innate spiritual bones?

In fact, Li Changqing's goal was the innate spiritual bone.

"It's too late. Even if this formation is weakened by two-thirds, it's still enough to withstand ten attacks from a Supreme Being."

"Our royal ancestor will be here soon."

The emperor of Qi laughed wildly.

Although he misjudged Li Changqing's purpose, even a mistake can lead to a good outcome.

As things stand, the outcome may not necessarily be a bad thing for them.

The emperor of Qi laughed wildly as he prepared to retreat.

His son was already a prisoner, and he didn't want to go with him.

Jiang Xiaobai possesses exceptional martial arts talent, and the Qi Kingdom's patriarch greatly admires him...

But this doesn't mean that the ancestor also liked him.

The Emperor of Qi was quite self-aware; he was currently only a Grandmaster of Martial Arts.

He was considered a disgrace by the patriarch of Qi, and the patriarch might not save him.

Li Changqing completely ignored His Majesty the Emperor's meaning; it would take him more than twenty breaths to break through on his own.

He didn't have that much time at all; Li Changqing summoned the Moon Wheel directly.

In terms of attack methods, Li Changqing's strongest attack method right now is the Sun and Moon Essence Wheel.

Especially the moon disc.

"The crescent moon is like a knife!"

A terrifying sword intent erupted, and the moon wheel in Li Changqing's hand suddenly increased in size by more than ten times.

The silvery moonlight shimmered, transforming into a gigantic white blade shadow that slashed fiercely at the formation.

"boom!"

The entire Qi royal palace was as if a magnitude 6 or 7 earthquake had suddenly struck.

The entire palace building was trembling.

The originally solid defensive formation was forcibly breached.

"It's a success!"

Li Changqing's eyes lit up, and he quickly reached out and grabbed the bone.

The moment Li Changqing grasped the bone, he felt a lingering will within it surge towards him.

"Um?"
