"Seventh Brother, who is this?" Qi Ning had just rushed back from the Lingyun Sect and did not know what had happened last night, so he naturally did not recognize Zhang nglong.
"Oh, I haven't introduced you yet," Qi Xiu quickly said, "this is Brother Zhang nglong, a life-and-death brother I t on the way back to the Imperial City. It was Brother Zhang who helped
restore my Spirit Root."
"Seventh Brother, your Spirit Root has been restored?" Qi Ning showed a look of surprise.
The two of them had been playing together since childhood, with Qi Xiu often taking ti to guide his training with much care and affection as a brother.
Most of the Princes were not happy about Qi Xiu's recovery, but Qi Ning was one of the few who truly felt happy for him.
"That's great!" Qi Ning said, "If Father knows about it, he would surely be very happy, he might even entrust you with the future heir of our Sacred Gold Dynasty."
"Look at this." Qi Xiu smiled and took out the Sacred Order given to him by Qi Moxing yesterday.
"Sacred Order? Father has already handed it to you?" Qi Ning exclaid, "I knew it, among all of Father's sons, besides you, none of them are worthy of my respect!"
It was obvious that Qi Ning seed like a little fan of Qi Xiu.
"This is all thanks to Brother Zhang," said Qi Xiu.
"Brother Zhang, I'm Qi Ning," Qi Ning patted his chest and said, "You saved my Seventh Brother, which ans you saved . From today on, you are also my brother!"
"Hahaha, good!" Zhang nglong was very fond of the straightforward nature of Qi Ning, "Since you've accepted
as your brother, I can't take advantage of you for nothing. This 'Divine Elephant Hell-shaking Strength' is my gift to you!"
Zhang nglong gently pointed his finger at Qi Ning's forehead, and a purple lightning elephant seal slowly entered his forehead.
"Use Qi to guide the Divine, manifest the image through the Divine, with every move, the strength of a giant elephant. A human body consists of 840 million micro-particles. If you awaken their potential, every tiny particle carries the power of a giant elephant. Fully awakened, it rivals a Sacred Elephant, overturning rivers and seas, roaring down the stars, capturing the moon and swallowing the sun, all in a single thought."
A mantra revolved in Qi Ning's mind, and he also envisioned the cultivation thod of this Cultivation Technique, along with many martial arts that complented it, each one earth-shattering and unparalleled.
"This..." Qi Ning stood there dumbfounded. Just looking at the few lines of incantation, he knew how powerful the 'Divine Elephant Hell-shaking Strength' was. He never thought Zhang nglong would casually give him sothing so terrifying.
How generous is this?
Although Qi Xiu didn't know what he had given Qi Ning, based on Zhang nglong's habits, anything below the level of a Hong-class Cultivation Technique was not worth ntioning. It was probably another remarkably superior technique.
"Why are you standing there in a daze? Thank your Brother Zhang!" Qi Xiu patted Qi Ning.
"Thank you, Brother Zhang!" Qi Ning's heart was already tumultuous. This ti being mistreated by the Lingyun Sect, wasn't it because he wasn't strong enough?
When he achieves great mastery in divine powers, not to ntion a little Lingyun Sect, where can't he go in this vast world?
"Alright, it's just a small gift, not worth much," Zhang nglong said casually. "But what is this Lingyun Sect you're talking about?"
"Our Sacred Gold Dynasty has a total of 25 Sect-level organizations, but almost all are First-grade. This Lingyun is the largest martial arts Sect, reaching Second-grade level, almost on par with our Royal Family," Qi Xiu explained.
The relationship between the Sacred Gold Dynasty and the Lingyun Sect dates back to their ancestors.
The founders of the Lingyun Sect and the Sacred Gold Dynasty both hailed from an ancient Sect, and they were senior and junior brothers by relationship.
The ancestor of the Sacred Gold Dynasty, Qi Mo, founded the Dynasty in a land of fertile soil and outstanding talents. The dynasty quickly grew and developed over a few hundred years, soon becoming a First-grade dynasty, officially owning its own na.
As for the founder of the Lingyun Sect, Ling Ye, he continued to stay in the original Sect, which reached the Fourth Grade level, where even a Heaven-breaking Realm Martial Artist could barely beco an outer elder.
But where there are people, there are conflicts. Ling Ye was upright and straightforward, often offending others, which eventually led to his downfall during an internal Sect struggle, forcing him to leave with so of his disciples.
At this ti, he thought of his senior brother Qi Mo, who had shared the sa branch with him back then, and then he brought his disciples to the Sacred Gold Dynasty.
Qi Mo was overjoyed to see his junior brother after decades. His junior brother was exceptionally talented and gifted. With his addition, the Sacred Gold Dynasty would surely be even stronger.
So he allocated a piece of land from the Sacred Gold Dynasty to Ling Ye and also provided manpower and material support, assisting him in founding the Lingyun Sect.
Initially, their collaboration was very pleasant. Qi Mo governed the realm, while the Lingyun Sect recruited a large number of disciples, training batch after batch of martial talents, most of whom joined the military to help the Sacred Gold Dynasty strengthen its army and conquer the world.
So in a few hundred years, the Sacred Gold Dynasty advanced from a First-grade to a Second-grade dynasty, and the Lingyun Sect progressed at the sa rate.
But this situation ended with the death of the two founders. On the Haotian Continent, there was no such thing as immortality as in Zhang nglong's world. Even a Heaven-breaking Martial Artist had a lifespan of just a millennium.
After their passing, their descendants initially remained very friendly, but as ti passed, the situation changed.
Because both sides were very close in power, they both thought they were the ones supporting the entire dynasty. In disputes, neither would give way, and as conflicts intensified and contradictions escalated, their relationship worsened.
After all, they were still guests, even though Qi Mo had repeatedly declined every year, Ling Ye would still pay a fee to the Sacred Gold Dynasty, all from the Lingyun Sect's industries in the Sacred Gold Dynasty.
Later, it beca a habit. Since the founding of the Lingyun Sect, this was an unchanged millennium tradition.
But in the recent few hundred years, they have been increasingly delaying this paynt, and now, they have openly torn their relationship apart.
"If this Ling Ye knew his descendants were like this, he'd probably be so furious he'd crawl out of his grave, don't you think?" Zhang nglong joked.
Back then, the Sacred Gold Dynasty took them in and helped them establish their Sect, which was already more than generous. The actions of the Lingyun Sect now amounted to a bit of betrayal.
"This matter must be told to Father," Qi Xiu realized the seriousness of the situation. "I've been saying for a long ti that there will be a battle between our Royal Family and the Lingyun Sect sooner or later. Now that they have made the first move, they can't bla us for being ruthless."
"Why do you seem so angry?" Zhang nglong was curious.
"Brother Zhang, you don't know, during my ti away from the Imperial City, I've had many opportunities to interact with the people of our Sacred Gold Dynasty," Qi Xiu said angrily. "The Lingyun Sect has degenerated now; they use their power to do many injustice things."
"Let's go, we'll find Father now," Qi Xiu said. "In respect for our ancestors, we'll first inquire diplomatically why they dare to act against you."
"But your Father is still in a condition that will take months to recuperate, are you trying to anger him to death?" Zhang nglong said.
"But..."
"This is a minor matter, we can handle ourselves," Zhang nglong said, "They just need a little punishnt, a good beating should do."
