Chapter 283 If you dont become innate, you will end up being an ant.
That night, under the leadership of Eunuch Huang, the chief companion of the East Palace, Gu Chen came to the East Palace and met the Crown Prince Ji Yuan.
At this moment, Ji Yuan was leaning on the desk in the study, handling the government affairs of Daxia.
Yanzhou was in dire straits, and many things required the consent of the prince before they could be implemented. Moreover, Yanzhou suffered heavy losses in the battle with the barbarians. Not only the people, but also many local officials in Yanzhou and Daxia died.
Therefore, the prince also needs to consider and select some suitable candidates to send to Yanzhou.
After arriving at the East Palace, the senior companion whispered: "Your Highness, Marquis Wu'an has arrived."
"Is Gu Chen here?" Upon hearing this, the prince looked up and saw Gu Chen. He looked overjoyed and said, "Here, please give me a seat."
"Thank you, Your Highness." Gu Chen cupped his fists and saluted.
Gu Chen still had a good impression of this prince. Although the prince did not have that much authority above the court and his personality was relatively indecisive, at least, through a series of things done by the prince Ji Yuan, Gu Chen concluded that
, the prince in front of him still attaches great importance to the people.
In a world with high martial arts such as Kyushu, there are many emperors in history who regarded the lives of the people as nothing and maintained their rule through killing.
After all, it is too difficult for civilians to rebel against the dynasty, because martial arts practice, talent, opportunity, and money are all indispensable.
Fortunately, neither Emperor Xia nor the Crown Prince Ji Yuan in front of him are like that.
As for the eldest prince who had offered an olive branch to Gu Chen before, it was obvious that he was not a person who took the people at heart.
After Gu Chen sat down, the prince waved his hand and said, "You all should step aside."
"yes."
After hearing this, all the guards and maids left here silently. Only Eunuch Huang, the eldest companion of the East Palace, stayed here.
This shows how important Eunuch Huang is in the prince's heart.
Gu Chen said: "I wonder why Your Highness asked me to come here?"
The prince smiled gently and said: "It's nothing serious. I just want to talk to you and tell me about the battle in Yanzhou. I want to know more about it from you, the person involved."
The prince has never left Tiandu in his life. He was appointed crown prince at a young age. Therefore, he is extremely curious about everything in the outside world.
When Gu Chen heard this, he told the prince in detail about the battle at Yanzhou and the whole story he had experienced.
The prince's emotions continued to rise and fall as Gu Chen's story unfolded. Especially when he heard about the scene of numerous casualties among Yanzhou people and corpses strewn all over the place, the prince suddenly clenched his fists tightly, and there was an evil spirit between his brows.
And when he heard that Gu Chen, with one sword and one man, fought against an army of 120,000 barbarians, took the heads of enemy generals from the crowd, and killed the barbarians in a panic, the prince even smiled and cheered loudly, feeling extremely refreshed.
.
When he finally heard that in the battle of Yongxue City, many soldiers and even the governor of Jingtiansi were killed, Duke Liang was assassinated, and Pingxihou rebelled, the prince's brows almost stood up.
"Cao Shuang, I really should cut you to pieces with a thousand knives!" The prince was furious and gritted his teeth.
Mentioning the deaths of Duke Liang and Wang Yan again, Gu Chen's mood inevitably became a little depressed.
But fortunately, he personally avenged Duke Liang and Wang Yan.
"Your Highness, take care of yourself." Seeing the prince's anger, the eldest companion of the East Palace quickly reminded him.
As an emperor, you should be able to keep your expression unchanged even if the mountain collapses in front of you. If you express your joy and anger too easily, it will be easy for others to see through your mind and seize your weaknesses.
Obviously, the prince is still relatively immature in this regard, but Gu Chen appreciates this very much.
It is precisely because of this that it proves that the prince cares deeply about these dead soldiers.
Gu Chen said: "Prince, don't worry, Cao Shuang's traitor has already been killed."
When the prince heard this, he looked at Gu Chen and said, "Did you also see the mysterious strong man during the battle in Xuecheng that day?"
Gu Chen looked stunned for a moment, then realized that the mysterious and powerful person the prince spoke of was none other than himself.
After the Yanzhou War ended, Gu Chen has been on his way. At the same time, because of the death of Liang Guogong and others, they obviously had no intention to collect any news. Therefore, Gu Chen did not know the rumors about him in Jiuzhou.
"I've seen it. This man is indeed brave." Gu Chen nodded and praised himself. He always felt weird.
However, as far as Gu Chen is concerned, this identity must not be exposed, otherwise, once the news gets out, countless pairs of eyes will be fixed on Gu Chen.
A weapon that allows a grandmaster to unleash the power of a grandmaster will inevitably be coveted by countless people. When the eyes of the world focus on Gu Chen, Daxia may not be able to protect him.
What's more, for such rare treasures, there is no guarantee that no one in Daxia will have other thoughts.
Before possessing the corresponding strength, Gu Chen will keep the identity of this mysterious strong man close to his heart and will not tell anyone.
Moreover, Gu Chen knew deeply that what he possessed was an evil weapon. If it were obtained by someone who acted without scruples, it would definitely cause a bloody storm in the world.
At this time, I heard the prince sigh with emotion: "Yes, the deeds of this mysterious strong man are being spread all over the world now. With such a powerful strength, it is very likely that he is a warrior at the martial arts level. If he can be persuaded to join
Daxia will definitely solve my current urgent need in Daxia."
Even though the prince's talent in martial arts is average, he still knows very well what it means to be a strong man with a martial arts level.
"Spiritual realm?" Gu Chen was speechless when he heard this. He didn't expect that the rumors about him in the world were so miraculous.
However, taking advantage of the situation, Gu Chen also asked his own doubts and said: "Prince, I wonder if you can explain to me the realm after the master?"
When he returned to Jingtiansi to see Qin Wu to report his work, Gu Chen was in a hurry to retreat, so he didn't have time to ask in detail.
Now that I see the prince, as a prince, he must know about the martial arts realm of Kyushu and some secrets.
The prince said: "Yes, you are now a grandmaster. It is normal to want to know the realm in the future. Although there are relevant records in Jingtian Division, with your breakthrough speed, you must not have time to see it in the future, right?"
When Gu Chen heard this, he also nodded. His breakthrough speed was too fast, and he was also entangled with various things. He only had a small understanding of the innate realm after the Grandmaster, and even less understanding of the innate realm.
none.
The prince smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, I still have some clear understanding of martial arts, so I will explain it to you today."
Speaking of this, the prince's expression became serious and he said: "In ancient times, there was a saying in the martial arts world that those who are not innate are just ants."
"Huh?" Gu Chen looked stunned.
The prince smiled and said: "It's normal that you don't know. This has been passed down from ancient times. At that time, there was no master who was not a master, and there was no great master who was not a great master. All of this was added by the warriors of the Nine Provinces in later generations.
The name on it."
"In ancient times, martial arts were only divided into acquired and innate. Acquired is the realm you are in now, Baiqiao realm is the acquired perfection, and innate is the great master today. In ancient times, the world was different from today.
There are a lot of warriors in the Xiantian realm, so breaking through the Xiantian realm is not as difficult as it is now."
Gu Chen frowned and said: "Your Highness, they are not innate, they are all ants. What does it mean? Is there any deeper meaning?"
The prince smiled dumbly and said: "There is no deep meaning, it is just the literal meaning. In ancient times, the innate state was called the beginning of practice. In ancient times, the acquired state was just shrimps and nothing."
"Innateness is actually the starting point?!"
When Gu Chen heard this, he was immediately shocked. People said that martial arts were prosperous in ancient times, but to what extent it was prosperous, Gu Chen only now has some idea.
The day after tomorrow is as numerous as dogs, and the day after tomorrow is everywhere. For some reason, such an idea suddenly appeared in Gu Chen's mind.
In today's Kyushu, the Xiantian realm is revered as the Grand Master of Martial Arts, and is superior to hundreds of millions of living beings. How extraordinary, but in ancient times, Xiantian was just the beginning?
If this statement were to spread, it would be difficult for many people to accept it, and it would cause a huge stir.
The prince said: "You don't have to feel shocked. After all, the world in ancient times was different from that in modern times. With your talent, if you were born in ancient times, you might have achieved innate talent or even martial arts to reach the gods by now."
Gu Chen didn't answer. It was still clear what kind of talent he had. Although it wasn't bad, it wasn't strong either. Everything he had now was achieved through the panel and his hard work.
When the prince saw that Gu Chen was silent, he also nodded secretly. Gu Chen was so talented that he could be said to be the first person to surpass Jiuzhou in hundreds of years. However, he could still have such a humble attitude. It was really rare.
This couldn't help but make him look at Gu Chen even more highly.
Gu Chen seized the opportunity and asked again: "Then, Your Highness, what is the realm of divine connection above the innate world?"
The prince answered: "The realm of divine connection is now known as the top grand master. In ancient times, it was also called the 'awakening realm'. You should know better about the innate realm. Reaching this realm will cause the body's physique to return from acquired to innate.
At the same time, longevity is greatly increased, which can initially mobilize the power of heaven and earth."
Gu Chen nodded slightly and listened to the prince continue: "As for the realm of divine connection, it is based on the innate realm, communicating with the world with spirit, so that the warrior's mind can be further condensed, and then transformed into 'spiritual thoughts', and the divine thoughts can be transformed into
, the spirit of a warrior has transcended the ordinary world, even a great master of martial arts in the Xiantian realm can be killed with just one thought in front of him."
"So powerful?!" Gu Chen was surprised.
He felt that as the martial arts progressed, it became more and more mysterious. Divine thoughts? It sounded like a spiritual attack.
"Of course, this is also the extraordinary thing about Tongshen Realm warriors. It is extremely difficult to condense spiritual thoughts. Even among the current Jiuzhou, Tongshen Realm warriors, before the birth of the Liuhe Divine Sect, there were only a dozen or so warriors among the hundreds of millions.
It’s just a position, the number can be said to be extremely rare, and it is an existence that is truly at the top of the world.”
"You should understand now how powerful and extraordinary the mysterious strong man who appeared in the battle in Yanzhou is. No matter where he appears, he will be regarded as a guest and worshiped by countless people in the world. That is,
He is a top grandmaster, and in front of him in the innate realm, he is like an ant."
For some reason, Gu Chen always felt a strange feeling in his heart when the prince praised him so in front of his face. He had an indescribable feeling, but he still maintained his surprise on the surface and did not reveal any flaws.
Gu Chen seized the opportunity and continued to ask: "Your Highness, what is beyond the power of the gods?"
