In the heart of the Chu Kingdom's princess, the Fourth Prince had always been someone who never fought unprepared.
This was also what worried the Chu Kingdom's princess. After all, based on Lin Changqing's previous potential, once Lin Changqing's cultivation reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, the Fourth Prince should have known he was no match for him. Yet, he still dared to set up a challenge arena for a life-and-death battle.
That meant the Fourth Prince must have hidden trump cards.
He was confident he had the means to deal with Lin Changqing, who had advanced to the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
"It's fine. Let him have ten thousand schemes; I will break them with my own strength," Lin Changqing replied. He was confident in his own strength. Once he swallowed the fruit of the Bronze Tree and reached the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage, he was confident he could suppress all enemies on this ancient path.
Even if the Fourth Prince had any conspiracies or trump cards on the arena at that time, he was confident he could defeat them.
And from another perspective, he had to go to this First City.
After all, he needed to win the Stone Monkey Celestial Art.
He also needed to win another ten years for the Chu Kingdom and for himself.
[Hearing you say that, the Chu Kingdom's princess no longer spoke. She just looked at you with worry. She felt that your future life-and-death battle with the Fourth Prince in the arena would definitely be extremely dangerous.]
[Next, you two searched the storage rings of the Daoist Cow and Daoist Horse thoroughly. Finally, after five minutes, you two put the Bronze Ancient Egg and the Bronze Tree into your storage bags and left the Yin-Yang Ancient Tomb.]
[Although the Bronze Tree was towering in the Yin-Yang Ancient Tomb, several thousand meters tall, you could use spiritual power to change its size. You transformed the Bronze Tree into a small tree about one meter tall and put it into your storage bag.]
[After leaving the Yin-Yang Ancient Tomb, two quarters of an hour later, you found a remote place in the Second City, ready to start nurturing the Bronze Ancient Horse and consuming the fruit of the Bronze Tree.]
"If you want to swallow the fruit of the Bronze Tree, you must first nurture the Bronze Ancient Horse and let it recognize you as its master. Otherwise, if the Bronze Ancient Horse doesn't appear, we won't be able to get the fruit from the Bronze Tree," the Chu Kingdom's princess said. Lin Changqing nodded. At this moment, in front of the two of them was a bronze-colored egg, and next to it was a shrunken version of the Bronze Tree.
Lin Changqing had just tried. He tried to take the fruit from the Bronze Tree, but he couldn't touch it at all. Just like before, the fruit on the Bronze Tree was prepared for the owner of the Bronze Ancient Horse. If you want to get this Bronze Fruit, you must first nurture the Bronze Ancient Horse and then let it recognize you as its master.
Fortunately, nurturing the Bronze Ancient Horse was not troublesome. As long as you dripped essence blood on it and nurtured it with spiritual power, it could hatch in a few hours.
After all, before Lin Changqing and the Chu Kingdom's princess obtained this Bronze Ancient Egg, this egg had been in the Yin-Yang Ancient Tomb for hundreds of thousands of years, and the spiritual energy it should have nurtured had already been completed.
Now, all that was needed was a recognition of the master to help the Bronze Ancient Horse hatch.
[You squeezed a drop of heart's blood from your heart and dripped it on the Bronze Ancient Egg. As soon as the heart's blood dripped on it, you felt a strange connection between yourself and the Bronze Ancient Egg. It seemed that you could see a primeval behemoth about to be nurtured from this giant egg. You sighed that it was indeed a sacred beast. Even before it was nurtured, you felt an amazing power. You were very satisfied with your upcoming mount.]
[An hour later, cracks appeared on the Bronze Ancient Egg. You knew that the Bronze Ancient Horse was about to be nurtured. Twenty minutes later, the Bronze Ancient Egg completely shattered. A bronze-colored foal came out of the ancient egg. Its fur was bronze-colored, and its body, about thirty to forty centimeters long, had a pair of bronze horse eyes with a strange majesty, incomparably divine. As soon as it appeared, there was a power to destroy the heavens and the earth. It was actually in the Nascent Soul stage!]
[As expected of a divine beast, it was in the Nascent Soul stage as soon as it was born. On the one hand, you were happy. The stronger the Bronze Ancient Horse was as your mount, the stronger you would be. But on the other hand, you also felt that comparing people to each other would kill you. Think about how you spent seven lives and hundreds of years of cultivation to reach the Nascent Soul stage. This Bronze Ancient Horse was good; it was already in the Nascent Soul stage as soon as it was born. Sure enough, people can't be compared to each other.]
[But what made you feel gratified was that, due to the reason that you dripped your heart's blood, this bronze foal was very affectionate when it saw you. As soon as it was born, it began to rub against your legs.]
"Born with the Nascent Soul stage, as expected of one of the top ten ancient divine beasts," the Chu Kingdom's princess praised from the side. The Bronze Foal seemed to be able to hear the praise and proudly raised its head. Lin Changqing laughed loudly when he saw it.
The foal was quite interesting, being able to understand human speech as soon as it was born.
"By the way, quickly let it give you the Bronze Fruit," the Chu Kingdom's princess reminded from the side. Lin Changqing nodded, and then he issued an order regarding the Bronze Fruit with his thoughts. The Bronze Foal nodded, as if understanding.
The Bronze Foal circled Lin Changqing's feet three times, and then wobbled to the front of the Bronze Tree, using its horse mouth to pick off the crystal-clear Bronze Fruit and hand it to Lin Changqing.
Lin Changqing looked eagerly at the fruit in his hand. After taking this fruit, he could improve four realms in a row and reach the ninth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
Of course, more importantly, it could reverse time and return to the Primordial Era. Lin Changqing was looking forward to what kind of adventures he would have in the Primordial Era.
"Legend has it that in the Middle Ages, several people who took the Bronze Fruit encountered great opportunities in the Primordial Era. The most powerful thing about this fruit is not to help you improve your realm, but to let you get all kinds of opportunities in the Primordial Era," the Chu Kingdom's princess said.
Lin Changqing replied, "Indeed, the most attractive aspect of this fruit to me is that it can help me return to the Primordial Era. In addition, I also want to thank you. Without your help, I would not have obtained this magical fruit."
[You thanked the Chu Kingdom's princess. This time, the Chu Kingdom's princess did help you a lot in the battle for the Bronze Tree and Bronze Fruit. She set up a plan to deceive the trust of the Fourth Prince's subordinates, and then successfully seized the Bronze Tree. If it weren't for her help, it would probably be difficult for you to grab it directly.]
"Young Master Lin, you don't need to thank me. I said, I will let you see the sincerity of the Chu Kingdom."
"I have indeed felt the sincerity of the Chu Kingdom."
[You answered like this, and then you took the fruit, ready to start reversing time and returning to the Primordial Era.]
[You were full of expectations. You wanted to know what way you would return to the Primordial Era, and you also wanted to know what opportunities this fruit would help you get in the Primordial Era.]
[The first moment you took the fruit, you didn't feel anything. No new spiritual power poured into your dantian, and you didn't feel any changes in your body. Two minutes later, you suddenly felt your mind start to become dizzy. You thought, is it starting to work? You now have a feeling of being drunk and not drunk.]
[Five minutes later, your consciousness was completely lost. You saw a monstrous black light engulfing you. When you woke up again, you came to the boundless darkness, and you couldn't see anything.]
"What is this? Where have I come to?"
[You didn't expect that this fruit would bring you to the boundless darkness. This is different from the Primordial Era you imagined. The Primordial Era you imagined was full of natural treasures, Golden Immortals were inferior to dogs, and Great Luo was everywhere. The Primordial Era you imagined had real dragons and phoenixes everywhere, and there were all kinds of opportunities and treasure troves, but now you can't see anything, only bare darkness.]
