#153 - Chapter 153: Stone Monkey - Simulating The Cultivation Of Immortals, I Reached The Nascent Soul Stage In Ten Days!

"Young Master Lin, since you want me to be straightforward, then I will directly state the purpose of inviting you here for this discussion." Princess Chu said, "My purpose is very simple, which is to recruit you. My purpose in holding back during the battle was also the same. I might as well tell you that when the Four Generals of the Immortal Palace came to me today to borrow the Azure Sky Lantern, I had already made plans to turn against them in battle, and was prepared to personally help you kill those four generals. But I didn't expect your combat power to be so amazing that you defeated them alone."

Speaking of this, Princess Chu had admiration on her face. She had already highly valued Lin Changqing's talent, but after seeing Lin Changqing's powerful killing of the Four Generals of the Immortal Palace across four realms in today's battle, she realized that a genius like Lin Changqing is rare in the world, which also strengthened her desire to recruit Lin Changqing.

Among the seven kingdoms, the Wu Kingdom is too strong, already dominating. Princess Chu didn't want to see the Wu Kingdom possess a genius like Lin Changqing.

At the same time, the weak Chu Kingdom also needs a peerless genius like Lin Changqing to compete with the Wu Kingdom when he grows up.

"So, that's Her Highness's purpose." Hearing what Princess Chu said, Lin Changqing laughed loudly: "Princess, your idea of recruiting me is a fallacy. Everyone in the world knows the current situation, with the six kingdoms weak and the Wu Kingdom strong. Everyone knows that the demise of the six kingdoms in the future is unavoidable. Therefore, Your Highness's recruitment of me to the Chu Kingdom is absurd. Why would I leave the powerful Wu Kingdom and go to the weak Chu Kingdom?"

"Moreover, in the Wu Kingdom, the Seventeenth Princess treats me well. I have the support of the Seventeenth Princess's mansion with the best cultivation resources. And among the seven kingdoms, the Wu Kingdom controls more secret realms than the Chu Kingdom. I really can't think of a reason for me to go to the Chu Kingdom."

"Young Master Lin, that's not right," Princess Chu shook her head. "The fact that the six kingdoms are weak and the Wu Kingdom is strong is indeed a fact, but that's from a national perspective, not for individuals. You first killed the Insect Daoist, and today you killed the Four Generals here. You have already formed an enmity with the Fourth Prince's faction. As the future heir to the throne of the Wu Kingdom, do you think he can let you go? Or, can you cultivate peacefully in the Wu Kingdom?"

"Why can't I cultivate peacefully?" Lin Changqing said, "So what if I killed the Insect Daoist and the Four Generals of the Immortal Palace? I have the confidence of the invincible Ancient Starry Sky Road. I will kill all the way to the end and compete with the Fourth Prince. I am not afraid of him. Moreover, after leaving the valley road, I have a Nascent Soul cultivator to protect me. The Fourth Prince can't hurt me even if he wants to."

"Young Master Lin, do you really think that you will be safe with the protection of a Nascent Soul cultivator after leaving the ancient road?"

"Oh, what does Your Highness mean by that?"

"What I mean is that the Fourth Prince can mobilize Return to Void level power. You know he obtained the inheritance of the Great Sun Immortal Venerable. In the Great Sun Immortal Venerable's treasure vault, there is a Return to Void level puppet, but the cost of using it is too great. I might as well tell you. Two years ago, the Fourth Prince had the intention to use the Return to Void puppet to kill you, but he ultimately endured it. One is because the cost of using the Return to Void puppet is too great, and he felt it wasn't worth killing you. The second is that if he publicly killed a genius like you, the Wu Kingdom's Emperor would definitely punish him, so he endured it."

"But what about now? You have shown too amazing talent. First, you killed the Insect Daoist across three realms, and now you have killed the Four Generals of the Immortal Palace across four realms. Do you think the Fourth Prince will still endure it? Does he still think it's not worth mobilizing the Return to Void puppet to kill you?"

"Now even a fool knows that if you are allowed to grow up, you will definitely be an unmatched enemy. So I dare to assert that after you leave the ancient road, the Fourth Prince will definitely mobilize everything at his disposal to use the Return to Void puppet to kill you!"

Every word of Princess Chu at this moment was like a heavy hammer, ringing in Lin Changqing's ears.

[Hearing these words, you are briefly silent. The information revealed in Princess Chu's words is really shocking to you. You really didn't expect that the Fourth Prince could mobilize the strength of the Return to Void level. You then think about it, it seems that the Seventeenth Princess sending a Nascent Soul cultivator to protect you for the past three years has made you too comfortable and somewhat arrogant. The opponent of the Fourth Prince cannot be underestimated. This person can actually mobilize a Return to Void puppet!]

[Seeing your silence, Princess Chu is overjoyed. She feels that her words have moved you. Then she continues to say.]

"Okay, I won't talk about the Fourth Prince being able to release the Return to Void puppet to kill you. I'll just say one more thing. Do you know what great opportunity is hidden in the first city at the end of the Starry Sky Ancient Road?"

"What opportunity?"

"Stone Monkey Heavenly Art, one of the Ten Ancient Heavenly Arts! And it's the complete version!"

[Princess Chu's words make your eyes narrow again. The first city of the ancient road actually hides the complete version of the Stone Monkey Heavenly Art!?]

[Her words stir up a huge wave in your heart!]

[You possess the incomplete Kunpeng Heavenly Art, and you know the power of the Ten Great Heavenly Arts best. But the first city actually hides a complete version of the Stone Monkey Heavenly Art. You are lost in thought for a long time after hearing this.]

[The so-called Stone Monkey Heavenly Art represents a taboo mythical figure from ancient times, the Spiritual Stone Monkey, Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong! This is a great figure who is well-known in both Lin Changqing's previous life and the current cultivation world!]

[The Stone Monkey Heavenly Art represents the ultimate in clones.]

[Legend has it that in the primordial era, Sun Wukong could transform into a clone by plucking a hair. Plucking thousands of hairs would create thousands of clones. Learning the Stone Monkey Heavenly Art allows one to possess this clone divine power of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong. Plucking a hair or blowing on a hair will create thousands of clones.]

[This clone has three uses. The first is to gather clones to gang up on the opponent when fighting enemies. The second is to summon thousands of clones when escaping from an invincible enemy. As long as one clone escapes, you can survive!]

[The third is the greatest use of this clone, which is to merge and recreate the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong, of the ancient primordial era!]

[If the Kunpeng Heavenly Art represents the ultimate in speed, then the Stone Monkey Heavenly Book represents the ultimate in clones!]

"You should know the attraction of a complete version of the Heavenly Art to the people of the world, and the first city at the end of the Starry Sky Ancient Road only allows one person to obtain it. Do you think the Fourth Prince will let you go if you defeat him and obtain this Heavenly Art?"

"On this road, if you want to obtain the Stone Monkey Heavenly Art, you are destined to have an irreconcilable feud with the Fourth Prince!"

"So how can you stay safely in the Wu Kingdom!?

Princess Chu said again, and hearing these words, Lin Changqing was completely lost in thought. It must be said that Princess Chu's words were indeed too manipulative.

[Seeing you pondering, Princess Chu strikes while the iron is hot and says another heavy sentence.]

"If you agree to my recruitment request, I will do my best to help you obtain the Stone Monkey Heavenly Art. Afterwards, if you come to the Chu Kingdom, I will let you see my sincerity. The cultivation resources of the entire Chu Kingdom will be given priority to you, and even at that time I can marry you!"
