Rise of the Great Emperor - Chapter 435

Prince Lin Hong retreated back behind an official at Golden Core Stage 3, who was also supporting him. The official let out a sigh because he didn’t expect this brat to move back but considering that Prince Lin Hong had only managed to breakthrough to Golden Core Stage after stuffing himself with a lot of Qi, it was clear that his cultivation hadn’t caught up with Prince Lin Bo Wang yet.

Prince Lin Bo Wang chuckled. “Well, since you also want to become the Emperor, let’s fight.”

The moment the phrase ‘let’s fight’ was sounded at, several officials took out their weapons and pointed it at the officials who supported Prince Lin Hong.

The official who was at Golden Core Stage 3 sighed and looked at Prince Lin Bo Wang. “Must it end like this?”

“If he also wants the throne, we have to fight fair and square, right?” Prince Lin Bo Wang’s eyes glinted with ruthlessness. “Kill them all!”

“Yes!”

With that, bloodbath had started as the two sides were engaged in brutal battles.

…

Inside Phoenix Inheritance.

“Waa!”

Thud!

Lin Xiao was the only one who was unable to keep up with the sudden change of place and fell down from the air. The others were still hovering by making use of what was left on their Qi.

“Are you alright, Lin Xiao?” Princess Lan Yi Hua asked in worry as she crouched down near him.

“Yeah… I just run out of Qi.” Lin Xiao smiled bitterly.

Internally, he was scolding Lin Hu. ‘Can’t you just transfer a bit more of your Qi so that I can’t stay floating? I’m losing my face here!’

‘Tsk, didn’t you say that you don’t need me? Why are you asking me for more Qi now?’

‘I never said that I don’t need you, you stupid dragon.’

‘Stupid master.’

In annoyance, Lin Xiao cut off the connection between him and Lin Hu. He scanned the area with curiosity and then his eyes landed on the small house along with the pond at the front. His eyes blinked. “It looks like a very good residence.”

“I’m asking for a pond because I know that you’ll need it. Shall we start to train and recover our Qi?”

“Ah, before that, I need to do something.”

Taking out a Spirit Stone, Lin Xiao absorbed the Qi then walked towards the pond. He paused for a moment. “Is it fine if I make a time array?”

“Time array?”

“So that we can spend longer here while in real world, it’ll be much slower. That way, we’ll be able to catch up with Prince Lin Bo Wang.” When talking about Prince Lin Bo Wang, Lin Xiao’s eyes glinted. He could guess that the two sides must be in a battle right now and he had to make sure that they were fast enough to recover and getting stronger so that they would be able to put up a good fight.

Princess Lan Yi Hua nodded. “Yes, it’s fine. But are you sure that you can set up something like that?”

“It’s possible.”

Lin Xiao had asked Lin Hu about that but the dragon merely looked at him in annoyance. It was not impossible, but the price would be his lifespan getting reduced with the same amount of time he spent in the time array.

It was quite costly but since he would be living hundreds of years, just a few years didn’t seem much for now. If he could get stronger, he didn’t mind losing a few years of time.

“However, your real age will be the time you spend in this array. While your appearance will follow the time you spend outside, your lifespan will depend on the time you spend in this array. Is it fine for you?” Lin Xiao asked.

Since it didn’t only affect him but also others, he had to ask first.

“Sure.”

“It doesn’t matter that much. It’s not like we want to stay here for a hundred years, right? It’s too long.”

“Yeah, just a few years so that we can grow stronger is fine.”

No one was against it, so Lin Xiao nodded and started to form the array. In truth, it was just him writing some sentences into the lake and then inserted it before faint layer of Qi spread onto the entire residence.

“How is it?”

“It’s working. I make it so that an hour outside is the same as one year here.”

“One year?” Princess Lan Yi Hua was stunned. Why did he make it so long? At the same time, she could feel the continuous stream of Qi towards the pond from the surroundings.

“I want to make breakthrough to Golden Core Stage 2.” Lin Xiao smiled. If he made his breakthrough, Lin Hu would be at Golden Core Stage 3, which was practically the strongest rank that existed in Sun Kingdom. As long as he could make his breakthrough, he would be invincible.

As long as there was lake nearby.

“I should make my breakthrough too.” Prince Lin Yan nodded. He was also close to make his breakthrough to Golden Core Stage 4. Now that they had plenty of Qi here and spacious area to train, he was sure that he could make his dash.

There was no restriction in this place either.

The others were looking at him with heated gaze. If there was someone among them who could enter Golden Core Stage 4, wouldn’t it mean that they would be invincible?

“Your cultivation would be suppressed to Stage 3 when you come out, though.” Lin Xiao looked at Prince Lin Yan.

Prince Lin Yan was silent for a while then smiled. “It’s fine. At least, it meant that I’ll have some head start when the restriction is lifted.”

“Right.”

The others would also try their best, so they all began their training.

Princess Lan Yi Hua then created a sea of fire near the pond. “Phoenix fire is good for purifying. While not all of you can use it as effectively as me, you can still make use of it to help you purify your Qi.”

“That’s great!”

“Let’s train!”

“Yes!”
