Chapter 3979 Black Robes for a Banquet
“Senior, what do you understand?” asked Long Chen.
“Long Chen, why did you have to be so suicidal?” asked the dragon expert excitedly.
“This doesn’t count as suicidal, right? Right now, I should be in the simplest, easiest part of the Dragon Soul Body Forging Art. Based on my calculations, first I’ll forge the blood, then the qi, and then the bones. After that, I’ll temper the will, soul, spirit, and finally the mind. Don’t ask me why I’m doing it in this order because I don’t know either. In any case, I feel that starting shallow and then going deeper is best. This is starting with the easiest before moving on to the harder part. I want to complete the bone forging in one go as preparation for the pain of forging the soul. Otherwise, if my will isn’t strong enough, I’ll probably be crippled,” answered Long Chen.
“Could it be that this is the will of the heavens? Long Chen, do you know? The bone forging that you just went through created the divine bone meridians. That is precisely the crux of cultivating the Dragon Soul Body Forging Art! When I taught my descendants this technique, not one of them managed to form these meridians. That is why they were unable to undergo a full circulation of the power in their bodies, which caused the backflow to crush them. It’s only when your bone meridians appeared that I understood. This step must be done throughout all the bones at once; otherwise, they won’t be fully linked. Aiya, how could I be such a fool as to not realize this? So many outstanding children died for nothing.” The dragon expert blamed itself for this.
Long Chen had only condensed the divine bone meridians accidentally. After all, these meridians were akin to a giant tree; all the branches, leaves, roots, and trunk had to be completed at once.
However, the dragon expert had been unaware of this despite being the one to create this technique. The pain of this bone forging was so immense that others couldn’t endure it all at once, so they had forged every bone separately.
Once the bones were all forged, they would be like countless puzzle pieces put together. Although they seemed to fit perfectly on the surface, in truth, they were not actually connected. Such a thing would not produce meridians.
Even if meridians did form, they would be fake and not linked. Thus, when their power circulated through the meridians, it led to a complete collapse.
On the other hand, Long Chen’s natural meridians were the result of forging all his bones at once, so there were natural passageways between the bones. Also, with him forging them like this, all his power was spread evenly throughout the bones because of these natural passageways, creating perfect meridians. The dragon expert cursed itself when it saw this.
Long Chen himself had just been blindly doing as he pleased. In fact, he wasn’t even sure what the dragon expert was saying, but it seemed that this step that he had randomly chosen was correct.
“Does this mean that my path is correct?” asked Long Chen.
“It is, it is most definitely correct. This problem that I was unable to figure out after tens of millions of years was just inadvertently solved by you. With this, everything else will be no problem. However, you do need to rest. Stabilize your current power first. Don’t greedily push yourself too far, and don’t do something so stupid again. Just once is enough,” warned the dragon expert.
“Hehe, alright.” It seemed that the dragon expert would be guiding Long Chen properly for everything afterward. Since there was no need for Long Chen to randomly guess, he felt much more relaxed about mastering this technique.
Now, other than the golden dragon blood, Long Chen also possessed golden bones and golden spiritual qi. When the three merged together, they brought him endless power, and Long Chen could clearly sense that his power had gone up a level.
After resting for a few hours, he was fully recovered. He then walked out of the cultivation room and saw Zhu Yifeng and Yu Qianxue waiting for him.
“You’ve finally come out. Any later and I’d have to knock and summon you,” said Yu Qianxue.
“What is it?” asked Long Chen.
“There is a state banquet happening soon, and His Majesty has requested your attendance. Hurry up and change your clothes. You can come with us,” said Yu Qianxue. After that, she handed over a set of robes to Long Chen. These robes were in the standard style of the princes.
Long Chen was startled. Was he being given the status of a prince? Did his stubborn father-in-law have a change of heart? Wasn’t that a bit sudden?
“I don’t need to change clothes. I only like wearing these black robes.” Long Chen shook his head as he didn’t like wearing other colors. Also, he preferred the clothes that his women had made for him.
