Although Princess Zhaoning has no talent for cultivation, she has read through the cultivation classics and naturally knows the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" which is rumored to be extremely difficult to learn.
According to legend, this spell can ignore almost all control effects and spell defenses, instantly causing extremely terrible damage to the enemy, making the caster almost invincible.
However, since the death of its creator, Chiyangzi, no one has ever fully mastered this spell.
Even Chi Yangzi's personal disciples, Da Qi Imperial Master and his junior brother He Yiqun, only had a brief understanding of the first few styles, but still could not show its original style.
But now, the opponent the fourth prince Xiao Shangzhen encountered in the "Realm of Discussing Tao" unexpectedly performed the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven". Although that person's cultivation level is still shallow, he should only be in the second level.
However, that person was able to use the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" to crack the "Celestial Dragon Domain" and "Liuhe Shield" passed down by the Qi Royal Family, which proved that he had definitely understood the "Tao" in it.
This surprised Princess Zhaoning very much.
At this moment, she no longer planned to investigate in detail what evil tactics Xiao Shangzhen used this time, but asked seriously: "Xiao Shangzhen, do you know the identity of your opponent?"
The emergence of a genius with astonishing understanding in the reserves of the "Shenji Camp" is undoubtedly a piece of news worthy of her attention.
Luo Sishou once said that the long night will come within three years.
In order for the Daqi Dynasty to successfully overcome this difficulty, Princess Zhaoning believed that it was necessary to discover as many potential monks as possible and devote resources to their training so that they would have the ability to take charge of their own affairs in the future.
Xiao Shangzhen shook his head and replied: "I don't know his identity in reality. I only know that his code name is 'Suzaku'."
"Suzaku..." Princess Zhaoning recited this codename silently in her heart.
She didn't know who this person was.
However, she was also an advocate of the plan to rebuild the "Shenji Camp" at the beginning, and had high access rights to the information related to the "Shenji Camp".
She plans to go to the Exorcism Department headquarters later to find out the true identity of this "Suzaku" and make it a focus of attention in the future.
"By the way, Xiao Shangzhen," she patted her brother on the shoulder and brought up another topic, "You should remember that I told you before that I have secured a place for you to go to the Laoshan ruins to explore the Immortal Cave in the first month of next year. "
"That's right." Xiao Shangzhen said gloomily.
"According to the latest news I got, you need to go to Laizhou Prefecture before the 20th of the twelfth lunar month to reunite with other young monks. After that, Qianhu Shilei of Laizhou Prefecture will lead you to the Laoshan ruins," Princess Zhaoning said lightly, " I hope you can behave well then and don’t embarrass me.”
"Sister, you always underestimate my abilities." Xiao Shangzhen snorted dissatisfied.
"You brat, you have never made me worry. Today, you will stay at home and practice your sword properly for me - you are not allowed to go out until you have mastered the seventh form of "Tai'a Swordsmanship"."
"Sister, you are going too far!"
"It's not too much at all. Your eldest brother Xiao Shangyuan has mastered "Tai'a Swordsmanship" when he was as old as you; now he dares to go to Yishan alone with a sword to deal with Xue Nu and eliminate harm for the people. With your laziness With his playful and opportunistic temperament, what can you use to compete with him for the Tai'a sword in the future?"
"My eldest brother didn't go to Yishan alone. He even called Uncle Fan."
"It's not important. Don't give me a hard time."
As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Zhaoning strode out of the house, slammed the door, and locked the fourth prince Xiao Shangzhen alone in the room.
The fourth prince did not obey her request and got up to practice sword practice.
He was still sitting motionless on the kang, resting his chin on his right hand and looking out the window involuntarily.
In the yard outside the window, several children from the guard's house wearing coarse cloths were playing.
They held whips and repeatedly hit the spinning top on the ground. They burst into cheerful laughter from time to time, looking carefree.
Seeing this scene, the fourth prince felt his nose sore, feeling aggrieved and envious.
"Sister, I don't want to practice swordsmanship, and I don't want to compete with my brothers for the Tai'a Sword," he reached out to wipe his wet eyes and murmured to himself, "I just want to play top with them. real……"
…………
After Princess Zhaoning Xiao Wanjun left the room, she did not rush to the Exorcism Department to investigate the "Suzaku" files. Instead, she stood outside the door and rested for a while, massaging her aching temples with her long fingers.
Her body leaned against the wall, forming a graceful curve.
During the recent period, Princess Zhaoning not only had to deal with government affairs, but also had to discipline her naughty younger brother, which made her feel exhausted.
Around her majestic and charming eyes, you can vaguely see faint dark circles.
At this moment, she heard her brother complaining through the door.
She sighed softly and sighed helplessly: "Brother, I also hope that you can have a carefree childhood. It's a pity that you were unfortunately born in the royal family - if you don't fight, others will I won't show mercy to you either.
"If 'Tai'a Sword' chooses your brothers in the end, I can't guarantee that they will let us siblings live the rest of their lives safely.
"When you grow up, you will understand that if I am stricter with you now, it is all for your own good..."
…………
After Gu Xu left the "Realm of Taoism", he quickly saw the changes in his ranking through the "Divine Machine Token".
After defeating "Kirin", he received his second point and his ranking rose from sixth to fourth.
After "Qilin" lost a game, one point was deducted, and now it only has four points left, but it is still at the top of the rankings.
However, in his opinion, the biggest gain today in the "Realm of Discussing the Tao" is not the points, but his new understanding of the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven".
He took out the pamphlet from the drawer, made notes on it with charcoal pen and said:
"Experiment time: the first day of November in the twenty-third year of Tianxing;
"Experimental content: Test the effect of the first 'Firefly Flame' of the "Seven Forms of Burning Heaven";
"Experimental subject: an unidentified member of the royal family, codenamed 'Qilin', suspected to be a young woman;
"Experimental results: 'Yingyan' can ignore the control of the 'Dragon Heart Sutra' and the defense of the golden shield (suspected to be a royal secret), and launch a direct attack on the enemy;
"Experimental conclusion: If I guessed correctly, the true meaning of the great path hidden in "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" is a defiance of authority, a rebellion against rules, and a change in tradition."
Writing this, Gu Xu secretly thought to himself: No wonder I was able to understand its connotation in just one night - as a traveler from modern society, I really have no respect for so-called rules and authority.
Afterwards, he put away his booklet and pen and prepared to start practicing meditation.
At this moment, his divine machine token flashed a few times and a message was sent to him:
"Notice: Laoshan Immortal Cave is expected to open on the first day of the first lunar month next year. Monks with exploration quotas are asked to arrive in Laizhou Prefecture before the 20th of the twelfth lunar month this year and report to the exorcism department there.
"Qianhu Shilei of Laizhou Prefecture will lead you to the Laoshan ruins."
"Master Qianhu Shi of Laizhou Prefecture...isn't this Shi Xiaohan's father?" Gu Xu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw this name.
