Your Majesty, you don't want your secret to be known.

However, there is indeed no one looking after this Taoist temple.

As the soul flag shook, Chen Hong was thrown out.

Chen Hong took a step and flew towards the Soul Flag.

boom!

However, the Soul Banner seemed to close the door, causing her eyes to be full of stars.

Chen Hong fell to the ground, not knowing for a moment whether to rub her head or her butt first.

Li Yunshu spoke.

"I can take you with me, but you have to listen to me and go to see him after you finish your business."

Chapter 77 Empress: Make Conditions

Late at night.

Before going to bed, Li Yunshu took a hot bath in the hot spring pool as usual.

call--

"I don't know how long it will be before I can take a hot spring bath after this."

"Then you can soak for a while longer."

Hearing a familiar voice coming from the pool, Li Yunshu turned around suddenly and was startled.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

He originally planned to leave in the afternoon, but Chen Hong wanted to go with him, so he had to trouble Elder Cui with the affairs of the Taoist temple.

After the handover, it was delayed another half a day.

I didn’t expect that the empress would come on our last day of hot spring bathing.

What are you doing here so late at night?

Li Yunshu was about to get up and walk out of the hot spring pool, but the empress stepped on his shoulder.

"If you like soaking, soak for a while longer."

Gudong.

Li Yunshu's throat rolled. The empress's words made the uneasy feeling in his heart even stronger.

"What's your majesty's order?"

Pei Xuanji sat down beside the hot spring pool, put her pair of jade feet into the water, and swayed gently.

The rippling water touched Li Yunshu's heartstrings.

However, the empress was reluctant to speak.

Looking at the pair of jade feet swaying in front of him, Li Yunshu felt his throat a little dry.

"Your Majesty, please give me your orders if you have any."

The jade feet in the water stopped shaking, and the empress said very seriously.

"I want to see your master. Please state your conditions."

"..."

If I could meet him, I would have met him first, and would not have waited for you to mention it.

Of course, he couldn't say this directly.

Moreover, he also heard that the empress was talking about this matter very seriously this time.

Li Yunshu raised his head and looked directly into the empress's eyes.

"I also have no way to contact my master."

This is the truth, so there is no hesitation at all.

When their eyes met, the empress realized that he was not lying.

However, she would rather the other party was lying.

"Is there any way to see him?"

Li Yunshu did not answer this question directly.

"I have a question, and I hope Your Majesty can help me solve it."

"ask."

"Your Majesty, can you ascend to the highest level at any time?"

Li Yunshu has been curious about this question for a long time.

So many people want to know the secret of ascension, but have these people really reached the tribulation period and are able to ascend at any time?

There is no secret as to whether or not it is possible to ascend to heaven. It’s just that these people’s cultivation is not enough.

Of course, his master is an exception. He still can't figure it out even after ascending to the Qi Refining Stage.

Pei Xuanji was stunned when he heard this question.

"But it is a fact that no one has ascended to heaven before your master. And how do you explain your master's ascension through Qi training?"

Although the Ban-Breaking Pill broke part of the seal on her body, from then on she no longer needed to rely on taking pills or soaking in hot springs to suppress the seal in her body.

Although he is still far from ascending, his cultivation is indeed still insufficient.

However, this does not mean that the inability to ascend in this world is due to insufficient cultivation.

Li Yunshu explained.

"Not everyone in this world is the reincarnation of a Celestial Lord. Your Majesty, have you ever thought that the reason why no one in this world can ascend to heaven is probably because of their own insufficient cultivation?"

The empress shook her head.

"I have read many classics and found that more than one person was trapped in the ninth level of the calamity, and eventually his blood and qi dried up and he died.

Otherwise, why do you think so many people are determined to obtain the secret of ascension? These people are all preparing for ascension.

Because they know that after entering the Tribulation Period, their life span will no longer increase, and their lives will begin to count down. "

Li Yunshu knew very limited things about the powerful beings who transcend tribulation.

So, this was the first time he heard what the empress said.

However, he thought of another possibility.

"Then, is there anyone in this world who has transcended the ninth level of tribulation?"

The empress shook her head again.

"As far as I know, no, those old guys who have passed the ninth level of tribulation have all died of old age.

And no one who came after him broke through to the ninth level of the Tribulation Realm. "

"Perhaps, my master's ascension is a turning point that will change this world."

Hearing this, Pei Xuanji remained silent for a long time.

a long time.

She stood up and said.

"I will restore my cultivation to the ninth level of the Tribulation Crossing Stage as soon as possible, and then I will come back to see if what you said is right."

Looking at the empress's departing back, Li Yunshu asked.

"How strong is your majesty really?"

Everyone knows that the Empress is one of the top fighters in Da Chu, but what people don’t know is that what they see is the Empress after she was sealed in a powerful way.

From what the empress said, it seemed that the Breaking Ban Pill did not completely remove the seal on her.

If the empress completely releases the seal, how terrifying would her power be?

Isn't it easy to ascend to heaven?

At this time, the empress had already walked to the door of the hall.

"About as high as the Yongning Tower."

After saying that, he walked out of the hall.

Hearing the words Yongning Tower, Li Yunshu was stunned.

Yongning Tower is the first tower in Da Chu, more than forty meters high.

As tall as the Yongning Tower, what kind of cultivation level must one have? He might have become an immortal.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the distance between himself and the empress was so far that he could not even see the end.

For him, transcending the ninth level of tribulation was already out of reach.

But compared with the empress's cultivation, this may just be a starting point.

……

Leave the capital.

In order to save time, Li Yunshu went directly to the provincial capital closest to the Sword Sect through the Da Chu teleportation array.

This way, it would be much faster than if he set out from the capital in a flying boat.

There were still five days left until the end of the month, and Li Yunshu, who had originally planned to go directly to the Sword Sect, decided to settle down in Jiangdu County first.

He also wanted to see what kind of talent the scholar named Jiang Wenzhen had, who could have bewitched Chen Hong to such an extent that she would remain devoted to him until death.

Jiangdu County.

It was drizzling, and there were few pedestrians on the street, and they were all in a hurry.

A skinny scholar stood quietly on the small bridge, staring at the river in a daze, like an alien in this small county.

In the distance, Li Yunshu walked over holding an oil-paper umbrella.

Before entering the city, he released Chen Hong.
