719 Can a person without a heart feel pain?
Emperor Qianwu was agitated and his thoughts were in turmoil. "I know! It must be that the eldest prince has been drawing in demonic energy and poisoning living beings. It's utterly despicable!"
They've ruined my path; they're utterly despicable!
His calm expression masked a turbulent undercurrent of emotion; the missed opportunity was utterly unforgivable!
Wrath, rage, rage that could destroy the world, even if it meant taking it back, but the dragon's aura vanished without a trace!
Hearing that the dragon energy in the secret realm has dissipated is now a common occurrence. What could be more valuable than the golden fragments?
The secret realm was once a place where dragon energy gathered, and the dragon energy was abundant, but it was also limited, and one could not absorb too much dragon energy each day.
Otherwise, if the dragon energy thins out too quickly, the medicinal properties of the spiritual herbs will be lost, or some spiritual herbs will wither away directly. The key is to maintain a long-term and stable effect.
Famous mountains and great rivers naturally contain spiritual herbs, but there are many seekers, and they are extremely dangerous, with unstable medicinal properties, monsters and ghosts, evil cultivators hunting them, and mostly conspiracies and schemes!
Emperor Qianwu and those around him seemed to take the dissipation of the dragon energy for granted.
But the turmoil in my heart was hard to calm. Those golden fragments, like lost immortality, broke through hope, making me feel regretful, as if my heart was being torn apart by a knife.
Can a person live without a heart?
An elderly man rushed over, delivering a message of immense anger, but the two people before him seemed to be in a daze, and for a moment the only sound was the whistling wind.
In the royal city, a sudden upheaval occurred. The residents near the royal city were all prominent and wealthy families. Those who were not asleep at the moment quickly organized their manpower to deal with the sudden change.
The wisps of black dragon energy that had previously appeared, supported by the prince, seemed incredibly arrogant and domineering, intending to recklessly invade every household in the city.
At this moment, the black dragon was destroyed, and the wisps of black energy that had lost the support of the black dragon energy continued to seep into the cracks in the door and the cracks in the brickwork, following the command of instinct.
However, a powerful and invisible aura suddenly emerged, like an insurmountable chasm blocking their way, preventing them from advancing an inch.
It was as if it was blocked by a thin layer of air from the house!
It's just a thin layer of air!
But the black gas seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall of copper and iron, and was instantly repelled, unable to advance any further, and even unable to cause pollution.
The house seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious and powerful aura, as thin as a cicada's wing yet as solid as a rock.
Silently guarding the peace of the home, preventing the wisps of black energy from crossing the line.
As the black dragon perished, some people who were slowly regaining consciousness, some leaning against their windows or doorways, suddenly felt an intense chill throughout their bodies and almost froze to death in the night.
Suddenly, I sensed something incredibly terrifying lurking outside, trying to get in.
If they come in, something terrible will probably happen.
He instinctively pressed himself tightly against the door, trying his best not to make a sound!
The thought of "No entry without permission" immediately came to mind!
A chill ran down his spine as he thought, 'Storytellers often say that some of the demons and monsters shouldn't enter a house on their own.'
The "no entry without permission" rule makes some sense.
My heart pounded with fear, and I quickly found the kitchen knife in the house. Suddenly, I felt a surge of heat welling up in my heart.
The eldest prince was crippled by the holy energy, and the black dragon energy that once surrounded him withered like a dying flower and was also destroyed by the Confucian school.
This demonic energy, which had once been so realistic and imitated so perfectly that it claimed to be a dragon, suddenly lost its powerful destiny after the First Prince was destroyed by the holy energy.
Under the seemingly perceptive scrutiny of the royal city's ley lines, the Crown Prince's demonic aura finally revealed its ugly nature, leaving it nowhere to hide.
Within the royal city, an invisible and scorching power erupted like a volcanic eruption.
It's like a raging fire leaping in a giant steel furnace, wild and unrestrained, unstoppable, melting everything, both tangible and intangible.
The rampant, disguised demonic energy, under the burning power, turned into ashes instantly, like withered and rotten wood, and scattered with the wind.
Within the royal city, something seemed to have silently vanished—the dragon energy. The demonic energy dissipated, but the dragon energy did not return.
It seemed to be even more serious. The expected cheers did not return. The dragon energy seemed to dissipate even faster, as if fleeing a terrifying place, an inexplicable threat, like water bursting its banks. The earth veins of the royal city instantly became desolate and lifeless.
Within the vast City God Temple of the royal city, the desolation of the earth's veins was even more evident. At this moment, it seemed as if its essence had been drained, leaving only the wind blowing eggshells, fallen leaves, and yellow earth like a desert.
In the past, people gathered here and could eat their fill without needing or caring about worldly offerings.
The dragon energy had become so thin that it was almost imperceptible.
Within the City God Temple, the Wang family's ancestor, who had just ascended the throne, suddenly felt pressure.
As the guardian of this royal city, the previous dynasty was destroyed, and the city god of this place was replaced by the royal city. The city god was also replaced, but in the past, he cultivated with the help of dragon energy, and the incense was even more prosperous.
At this moment, he suddenly felt his strength greatly weakened, as if he had lost his former great power in less than a night.
This matter began several months ago. Through the prayers of their descendants, they learned that their most outstanding descendant, the Holy Emperor, had disappeared without cause. However, the mortal realm is separated by the realms of Yin and Yang, and the Holy Emperor was far more powerful than them.
There was no way to ascertain the Holy Emperor's whereabouts.
After that, the worship of the City God was greatly affected. Apart from family members who would offer sacrifices on the first and fifteenth of each lunar month, ordinary people found it difficult to even step into the City God's Hall.
In the past, when the Holy Emperor was alive, the City God Temple was extremely prosperous, and the Holy Emperor allowed ordinary people to enter the temple to worship the City God.
The Imperial Clan Court had long believed that the City God Temple was the ancestral home of the family, and that outsiders were not allowed to enter and worship there, fearing that outsiders would divert their family's fortune.
Moreover, their own City God ancestors were nourished by dragon energy, and were not ordinary people or even servants who could be worshipped, because they were not members of the royal family.
Exclusivity, simple and straightforward, someone shouted loudly, 'The fortune of my Wang family cannot be taken away by these peasants.'
Absolutely not!
'If it were stolen by someone with malicious intent, it would be a disgrace to our ancestors, and we absolutely will not allow outsiders to worship it!'
Divide my royal family's fortune!
This view was supported by some family members, but the Holy Emperor did not approve it, so it could not be implemented.
During the reign of the Holy Emperor, ordinary people could enter the palace to worship; there were no barriers to entry!
However, with the Emperor absent for some time, various rumors have emerged, especially regarding the struggle for the throne and the tangible and intangible competition among the princes.
No one can overpower the world like the Holy Emperor, so other methods have surfaced, while undercurrents are surging beneath the surface!
Some people, whether intentionally or simply out of a desire to protect the family's fortune, have prohibited the common people from worshipping the City God.
Ordinary people are not allowed to enter.
Such familiar words, always so familiar, so easy to say.
