In an instant, the surging momentum pressed down like a mountain, causing Li Chunfeng to groan and his blood and qi to surge.
Seeing this, Xia Zhenghong spoke up at the opportune moment: "Everyone around me is one of our own. Just say what you have to say."
In the distance, hidden within the formation, Qu Feiyan muttered, "The Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty is quite good at winning people over."
Hearing what Qu Feiyan said, Shuimu Yinji said, "No matter what, the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty is only at the Grandmaster level. He is now competing for the throne with another prince. He can only rely on the experts around him, so naturally he dares not be negligent."
Qu Feiyan pursed her lips and said, "If our own strength is insufficient, we can only rely on external forces."
Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "If one's fortune is at its peak, then for the members of the Great Xia Dynasty's royal family, strength and cultivation are indeed not that important."
After mastering the feng shui techniques of a grandmaster, Chu Qinghe finally understood the role of luck.
The power of heaven and earth is unique, and fortune is also a kind of power of heaven and earth.
The universe and all things in it interact and restrain each other, forming their own natural order.
Unless one can enter the Yang God Realm, or forcibly drive the power of heaven and earth like Chu Qinghe is now with the Dao Sword Realm.
Otherwise, martial artists will ultimately be influenced by this world.
Those with abundant fortune are protected by it. Even martial artists at the Void Breaking Realm need to consider whether they can withstand the backlash of the power of heaven and earth if they want to harm someone whose fortune has deepened.
Therefore, for the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, the greatest temptation for improving cultivation was perhaps to increase lifespan.
Those who can control the fate of a nation already possess the ability to kill millions of corpses; why would they need to take action themselves?
One's own strength has become secondary.
It would be better to immerse oneself in the art of imperial strategy, so as to ensure that the country's fortunes will be more prosperous during one's reign, and to prevent the fortunes from fading.
This is why the people of the Great Xia Dynasty went to such great lengths to nurture the dragon veins of the Nine Provinces to enhance the dynasty's fortune.
As for martial artists, even those at the Void Breaking Realm have emotions and desires, and they also have families.
The art of ruling naturally includes studying these things.
As long as the nation prospers, there will naturally be skilled individuals willing to serve it.
After Chu Qinghe's explanation, the group finally understood the power of destiny.
Wanwan asked, "But in that case, wouldn't the dynasty that enjoys the fortune be trapped by this fortune?"
In Wanwan's view, the most valuable quality in a person is self-reliance.
The people of the Great Xia Dynasty, who wanted to become emperors, devoted all their attention to state affairs. Where would they find the time to cultivate? Let alone condense their martial arts golden core and strive for higher levels of martial arts.
Dongfang Bubai said calmly, "People have two sides, and things have good and bad. If you want to enjoy the benefits of the power of fortune, you must also bear the disadvantages. With the power of fortune, the people of the Great Xia Dynasty can enter the Celestial Realm as long as they inherit the throne. What is there to complain about?"
After explaining to the group the importance of the power of destiny for an emperor or even a country, Chu Qinghe slightly raised his eyes and looked towards the northeast.
With a slight smile playing on his lips, Chu Qinghe's sword energy suddenly began to circulate.
Immediately afterwards, a gentle breeze blew from the desolate mountain.
The air seemed to have an extra hint of sweetness, causing Xia Zhenghong and the people of the Great Xia Dynasty in the distance to take longer breaths.
Hearing Xia Zhenghong's words from afar, Li Chunfeng pondered for a moment before speaking, "In that case, I will obey His Highness the Crown Prince's order."
In response to Xia Zhenghong's roar, Li Chunfeng said, "I have a way to make the dragon veins of the Nine Provinces develop rapidly, until a dragon soul is born within them."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Xia Zhenghong and the other people from the Great Xia Dynasty changed drastically.
Xia Zhenghong immediately asked, "Is this true?"
Li Chunfeng shook his head and said, "This concerns the dragon vein; how could I dare to speak presumptuously?"
Li Chunfeng spoke with absolute certainty.
For people like Li Chunfeng, Bai Xiaosheng, and even Chu Qinghe, lying and sweet talk are no different.
The sincerity and certainty in his tone seemed to come naturally.
As the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, even if he is not a quick-witted person, he is by no means a fool.
After calming down a bit, Xia Zhenghong asked, "Since the Ghost Valley Sect has a method to quickly nurture the dragon veins of the Nine Provinces, why has it never been mentioned before?"
Li Chunfeng shook his head and said, "It was useless to mention it before, but it's possible now."
Knowing that Xia Zhenghong could not understand, Li Chunfeng reached into his robe and took out a piece of jade with a slight purple tinge, saying, "This stone is a dragon vein companion stone, a unique item within the dragon vein, originating from the same source as the dragon vein. Previously, the dragon veins of the Nine Provinces were merely in their embryonic form, and the dragon veins were nothing more than inanimate objects."
"But over the past thousand years, the power of heaven and earth within the land of Kyushu and the national fortune generated by the rise and fall of dynasties have nurtured it. A few months ago, the Purple Star Qi was successfully born in the dragon vein."
As he spoke, Li Chunfeng channeled his true energy into his body.
As true essence was injected into the jade, the jade in Li Chunfeng's hand shone with a brilliant purple light.
As the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, he was naturally familiar with the aura of Ziwei.
Therefore, when his gaze fell on the jade in Li Chunfeng's hand, Xia Zhenghong said with a delighted expression, "It is indeed the aura of Ziwei."
Afterwards, Li Chunfeng, having withdrawn his true essence, continued, "Previously, the Ziwei Qi within the dragon veins of the Nine Provinces had not been nurtured. Even my Guigu Sect was like a skilled cook without rice to make a meal, let alone..."
At this point, Li Chunfeng paused before continuing, "Moreover, as a lesson from the past, although His Majesty of the Great Xia Dynasty a thousand years ago was decisive, his methods were too extreme. With the tragic fate of the Tianji Sect as a precedent, our Guigu Sect naturally needs something to secure its survival."
