Lu Feng walked out of the residence. The sunlight outside dimmed as clouds covered the sky.
This month was the rainy season in the south, and the weather was somewhat unpredictable.
Zhu Zhuyun had already agreed to Lu Feng's request and would find a way to get the three Consecrated Priests to leave Star Luo City.
As for the remaining Consecrated Priests, they had close ties with the Imperial Family, and Lu Feng couldn't pry them away. Especially the First and Second Consecrated Priests; according to Zhu Zhuqing, these two were sworn brothers of the Star Luo Emperor.
Looking at the dim sky, Lu Feng's eyes lowered slightly, but a sense of anticipation gradually rose in his heart. "Tang Hao, oh Tang Hao, I've helped you so much; you have to work hard."
Lu Feng handed over the Blue Silver Emperor soul bone to the Imperial Family not just for the position of Crown Prince, but for the throne.
He had no interest in waiting in Star Luo City for decades, hoping every day for the Star Luo Emperor to pass away.
According to Lu Feng's understanding of Tang Hao, if he knew Ah Yin's soul bone was in Star Luo City, he would most likely take action directly and wreak havoc in the Star Luo Imperial Palace.
After all, he was a man who dared to hammer the Pope.
In this way, Lu Feng would have the opportunity to profit from the chaos.
Third Prince's Residence.
There were many visitors; the carriages at the entrance of the residence could hardly find a parking spot.
Lu Feng quietly came to the wall, jumped, and flipped into the courtyard.
These days, Zhu Zhuqing was responsible for all the social engagements of the Prince's residence. Lu Feng, this fake prince, didn't know any of those princes and nobles, and he didn't want to cause trouble for himself.
In the quiet room.
Lu Feng sat cross-legged and began to meditate and cultivate.
Faint soul power surged from his body, and gradually, his breathing became steady.
According to the general principles of the Mysterious Heaven Skill, Lu Feng's cultivation was only officially on the right track after gathering the five elemental attributes.
Absorbing soul rings of the five elements didn't mean one could only use the power of the soul rings. After all, the age of each soul ring was different, and a theoretical balance could never be reached.
The attributes in the soul rings were just a primer, like the spark that starts an engine.
In a sense, Lu Feng had taken a shortcut.
The power of the Mysterious Heaven Skill lay in the fact that after successful cultivation, the soul power in the body would be endless.
In the original work, Tang San only achieved this effect with his soul power after cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill to the eighth layer and opening up the eight extraordinary meridians.
"Huu~"
Lu Feng slowly exhaled a turbid breath.
He opened his eyes, a trace of surprise flashing in their depths. "Level 60!"
After two and a half months, Lu Feng finally broke through another level, successfully advancing to the quasi-Soul Emperor realm.
Soul Master cultivation became slower the later it went. After reaching Soul Saint, some people couldn't even break through one level of soul power in a year.
That Lu Feng could still maintain a speed of leveling up every two or three months at the Soul King realm, besides his diligent cultivation, also fully demonstrated the power of the Red Quality Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record.
And now, a fifteen-year-old quasi-Soul Emperor... if the outside world knew, it would probably trigger a huge earthquake.
"Stabilize development, don't be reckless!"
Lu Feng slowly got up and walked out of the room.
Looking at the darkening sky, Lu Feng felt somewhat high-spirited. "Sure enough, once you break through, even a cloudy day feels pleasant."
"Hmph, you're happy, but I've been exhausted these days."
At this moment, a complaining voice sounded.
Lu Feng turned his head and saw Zhu Zhuqing standing by the door, looking at him with slight resentment.
"Zhuqing, you're here." Lu Feng chuckled.
"Hmph." Zhu Zhuqing snorted lightly, walked to the table, and sat down.
Seeing this, Lu Feng quickly walked over, picked up the teapot on the table, and poured her a cup of tea. "Zhuqing, you've worked hard these days."
Zhu Zhuqing took the teacup and rolled her eyes at Lu Feng.
Her gaze, rather than blaming, was more like a charming glance.
"Tired isn't the word, but smiling all day, dealing with people insincerely all day long... I feel like I almost don't recognize myself anymore," Zhu Zhuqing complained.
Lu Feng smiled slightly upon hearing this. With Zhu Zhuqing's nature, asking her to handle these matters was indeed a bit difficult for her.
Lu Feng gently held her hand and said warmly, "Don't worry, Zhuqing, it will be better after a while. If the plan goes smoothly, it won't be long before the old man can go see his ancestors."
"Hehe, by then, the entire Star Luo Empire will be ours to command." Lu Feng grinned.
The corners of Zhu Zhuqing's mouth curled up slightly. "Hmph, keep dreaming. When you become Emperor, there will only be more things to do. Handling state affairs, managing politics, receiving courtiers, and conducting various sacrificial activities."
"Besides, behind the Star Luo Imperial Family is the White Tiger Sect. The elders in the sect have the power to supervise the Emperor."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Lu Feng and teased, "If the Emperor is fatuous and incompetent, they can even bring out the Founder's Token and whip the Emperor in public."
"Ah?"
Lu Feng exclaimed in surprise, his brows instantly furrowing.
In his past life, in the TV dramas Lu Feng watched, emperors generally indulged in wine and meat, living a life of drunken dreams. If they were in a bad mood, they killed a few people; if they were in a good mood, they also killed a few people.
From the beginning, he only intended to be a fatuous ruler.
Anyway, the Star Luo Empire was just a tool for him to collect fragments.
He had no ambition to unify the continent, and he didn't even care about the rise and fall of the Star Luo Empire.
But looking at it now, the throne seemed to have become a shackle for him. After all, having come this far, he couldn't just disappear and give the throne to Davis, could he?
Lu Feng lowered his head, pondering for a while.
Immediately, he slowly raised his head and looked quietly at Zhu Zhuqing.
Not having seen her for half a day, he suddenly felt that Zhu Zhuqing seemed to have an extra special temperament. At a glance, she looked like good material for an Empress.
"Zhuqing, I recently comprehended a peerless cultivation method by chance while studying in the library. Do you want to learn it?" A faint smile curled the corner of Lu Feng's mouth as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing seriously.
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing was stunned. When did Lu Feng go to the Imperial Family's library?
Why didn't she know?
"What cultivation method?" Zhu Zhuqing asked doubtfully.
Lu Feng coughed lightly and said seriously, "My cultivation method is called the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. It encompasses everything, summarizing the characteristics of dozens of cultivation methods from Heaven Dou and Star Luo."
"The method includes internal cultivation techniques, lightness skills, and eye techniques. If cultivated to great success, the soul power in the body will be endless and almost never exhausted."
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes widened instantly.
Immediately, she looked Lu Feng up and down. Could such a magical cultivation method be created just by reading extensively?
"What kind of look is that?" Lu Feng frowned. "You don't believe me? Hmph, look at what my current soul power level is."
Saying this, Lu Feng's surging soul power poured out, and the air in the room instantly became heavy.
In an instant, Zhu Zhuqing jumped up from the stool and blurted out, "You broke through to level 60!"
She couldn't help but be shocked. If she remembered correctly, Lu Feng was only fifteen years old.
A fifteen-year-old Soul Emperor... Zhu Zhuqing didn't even dare to think about it.
"How did you do it?" Zhu Zhuqing asked in shock.
A cunning smile curled the corner of Lu Feng's mouth, and he said indifferently, "This is the cultivation method I just mentioned. How about it, do you want to learn?"
"Yes!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded heavily.
Seeing this, a sharp light flashed in Lu Feng's eyes. "Want to learn? Then you have to agree to one condition."
"What condition? I'll agree to anything."
