Chapter 71: Chapter 71: Solving 3 Consecutive Evil Spirit Incidents on Par with the Black Pearl

As the system’s pleasant notification sound echoed in Chu He’s mind,

the full essence of the Grass Destruction Sword Technique flooded his mind like a tide, and he quickly mastered it.

The Grass Destruction Sword Technique was an incredibly powerful form of swordsmanship that perfectly complemented the Xuanyuan Sword in Chu He’s hand.

When combined, the amplification effect made one plus one far greater than two.

Just as its name suggested, a single strike of the Grass Destruction Sword Technique could annihilate everything in its path. It was a form of swordsmanship designed for wide-area coverage.

Chu He imagined the magnificent and shocking scene it would create if he combined it with his He Transformed and Free Great Method.

Sword Qi would fill the sky and cover the earth. Nothing could block it, and no one could escape.

And beside him, the three women had also successfully stepped onto the path of a Martial Artist.

Chu He felt a heartfelt sense of gratification seeing the changes in Chu Jiaqing, Chu Jiamei, and Liu Yuzhu.

Liu Yuzhu, once a queen of the business world who had operated undercover in the Great Jing Empire, had been greatly constrained by her identity and reputation.

Although she yearned to practice Martial Arts, she had to bury the desire deep within to protect her identity.

Now, she finally had the chance to cultivate.

Relying on her solid foundation in Martial Arts theory and Chu He’s careful guidance, she progressed at an incredible speed.

Her strength soared in a short period of time, and she broke directly into the ranks of a Second Grade Martial Artist.

Chu He believed that with another ten to fifteen days, Liu Yuzhu might even be able to quickly reach the Third Grade Martial Artist realm.

This wasn’t just due to her own efforts; it was the inevitable result of her deep reserves of knowledge finally bursting forth.

As for Chu Jiaqing and Chu Jiamei, the two sisters had also embarked on the path of a Martial Artist.

Although Chu Jiaqing had once temporarily set aside her Martial Arts training for her academic studies, her foundation remained.

With Chu He’s help, she quickly got back into the swing of things and successfully became a Martial Artist.

As for Chu Jiamei, whose innate talent already surpassed her sister’s, she was now like a fish in water, her strength improving by leaps and bounds.

In terms of talent alone, Chu Jiamei was undoubtedly superior to Chu Jiaqing.

But Chu He was confident. He believed that with his current identity, status, and strength,

even if his sister’s talent was slightly inferior, he could certainly help Chu Jiaqing reach the King-level realm given enough time and resources.

At that level, she would have the power to stand tall before ninety-nine percent of the world’s enemies.

At the very least, she would have the ability to escape.

As for Chu He’s parents, their journey into cultivation would require more time.

His parents were older, and their physical condition was different from that of a young person, so he was unwilling to pressure them.

He preferred to let his parents follow their own pace, to slowly feel and experience the changes brought by Martial Arts.

During a short break, Liu Yuzhu approached Chu He. She gently wiped the sweat from her forehead with a clean towel and said, "Mr. Chu, Her Majesty the Queen invites you to make a trip to the Royal Palace."

Chu He slowly opened his eyes. Lying in a comfortable rocking chair, his mind was still immersed in the profound depths of the Grass Destruction Sword Technique. He asked casually, "Do you know what it’s about?"

Liu Yuzhu stood to the side, her gaze inadvertently drifting toward the other Martial Artists practicing diligently in the background.

These Martial Artists had all, more or less, gained new inspiration from Chu He’s teachings.

Chu He’s Martial Arts Realm was so high it surpassed that of everyone present.

Every word he spoke and every move he made contained profound Martial Arts philosophy. Even the most basic instruction could provide other Martial Artists with significant inspiration.

"It’s about the Lighthouse Empire."

Liu Yuzhu replied, "They’ve suddenly begun to flex their muscles, and they’re claiming your strength has reached the Emperor Realm.

They say this Emperor Realm is a brand-new realm above King-level, and that humanity’s limit is not, in fact, the King-level.

Furthermore, they dispatched three Emperor Realm Martial Artists at once. Leading over twenty King-level experts, they resolved three Evil Spirit incidents in the Taiyang Sea, each one on par with the Black Pearl incident.

This series of events has sent shockwaves around the world."

Chu He was quite surprised after hearing this. He recalled that when he had just stepped into this realm, he had casually given it a name.

He never expected the name to spread across the globe so quickly, let alone be formally adopted by the Lighthouse Empire’s leadership.

"Who came up with the name Emperor Realm?" Chu He asked curiously.

"The name was decided upon by the Lighthouse Empire’s leadership after a consensus was reached."

Liu Yuzhu explained, "Her Majesty the Queen is uneasy about this, so she wants to invite you to the Royal Palace for a discussion.

To be honest, I’m a little surprised myself.

Before the Evil Spirit invasion, the Lighthouse Empire was Blue Star’s foremost superpower. They often flaunted their military might and turned many smaller empires into their puppets.

They also burned, killed, and looted their way through other prosperous nations, committing every imaginable evil.

After the Evil Spirit invasion, the world order was turned upside down, but the Lighthouse Empire has somehow maintained its formidable strength. In fact, it has widened the gap between itself and other nations.

This time, they unveiled three Emperor Realm experts all at once, who then resolved three Evil Spirit incidents, each on par with the Black Pearl incident, in quick succession. And all three of those Emperor Realm experts emerged completely unscathed."

"If this is only to discuss the matter of the Lighthouse Empire, there’s no need to trouble Her Majesty the Queen with a personal invitation to the palace."

Chu He shook his head lightly, a dismissive look on his face. "You can go back and tell Lu Yinxing that even if the Lighthouse Empire had ten Emperor Realm experts, they couldn’t intimidate me in the slightest."

The words had barely left his mouth when a crisp system notification sounded in Chu He’s ear. "DING! Host’s current status detected. New mission triggered: Help Ye Lingyun become a King-level expert. The host will be rewarded with one Golden Core.

Mission failure: no penalty."

A Golden Core reward?

Chu He’s eyes instantly lit up.

His mind made up, he decided not to delay. His figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.

The next moment, Chu He appeared in a corner of the manor and grabbed Ye Lingyun, who was lost in thought.

Ye Lingyun was startled by Chu He’s sudden action,

She stared at Chu He with wide eyes, her face full of confusion and bewilderment.

"Come with me."

Without giving Ye Lingyun any time to react, he pulled her along and sped away from the manor.

Watching them go, Liu Yuzhu couldn’t help but stand up and scratch her head in complete bewilderment.

...

Chu He actually had the ability to forcibly raise Ye Lingyun’s cultivation to the King-level, but he knew very well that doing so would limit her future growth.

As a Land Immortal of this world,

he knew that King-level was not the ultimate limit for a Martial Artist, and he was unwilling to ruin Ye Lingyun’s future by taking such a shortcut.

Therefore, when Chu He decided to help Ye Lingyun break through, he chose another method.

He took Ye Lingyun with him, speeding past several massive, towering cities before finally arriving at the Great Xia Empire’s Demon Cave.

Before the Demon Cave, black mist swirled like a giant, all-devouring beast opening its great maw.

Chu He stopped, landing lightly on a tree branch. He turned to look at the still-dazed Ye Lingyun and spoke slowly. "You’ve been stuck at your current realm for a while now. There’s one method that might help you break through.

That is to go deep into the Demon Cave and temper yourself on the edge of life and death."

As soon as Chu He’s voice fell, he released his hand.

Ye Lingyun only felt a sense of weightlessness come over her.

The next moment, she had been thrown into the black mist ahead and disappeared without a trace.

Chu He stood where he was, his gaze deep and profound as he stared in the direction of the Demon Cave. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

He would give Ye Lingyun one month. If she couldn’t break through to the King-level within that time,

then Chu He would intervene and forcibly raise her to that level.

But he hoped even more to see Ye Lingyun break through her own limits and achieve an even higher realm.
