Chapter 753: Chapter 753 – Advance
The Royal Sun Family still had a few things to show. At least this meditation technique was decent.
For normal bloodlines, this was definitely a family heirloom. Even if it wasn’t the Royal Sun Family’s bloodline, it could still stabilize other bloodlines. It would be useful for long-term cultivation.
For Chen Heng, the effect wasn’t that effective, but it wasn’t insignificant either. It was mainly a system that hadn’t been discovered before, so it was a good reference for Chen Heng. As for the effect it had on him, it was really insignificant to him.
A few days later, Chen Heng officially set off. According to Jameson’s instructions, they would meet up in a small county and then go through a passage to the mystic realm.
The road to the mystic realm was rather bumpy and secretive. No wonder the King’s Council could hide for so long without being discovered.
On the way, Chen Heng conveniently returned to his own territory. Perhaps to show his trust, Jameson did not forcefully arrange for anyone to follow Chen Heng. Instead, he gave him the authority to move freely.
Since he had this authority, Chen Heng naturally would not waste it. He would do what he had to do.
“The materials that you ordered previously have basically been gathered. We can quickly mass-produce the drugs.”
Within the Alan’s City, Alice spoke with a face full of excitement. She reported the results of this period of time to Chen Heng. “Currently, our drugs are mainly sold to the Violet Empire. Through the channels of the royal family, we have already achieved good results.
“The feedback from all aspects is very good. The first batch of goods have all been digested. We are only waiting for the second batch of the drugs to be sold.
“Currently, the we have achieved a surplus!”
At the end of her sentence, Alice almost cried out in excitement. It was not easy.
Although the original Alan’s territory was not very rich, at least a few cities were located on trade routes. So every year, the tolls alone could earn a lot of money.
However, since Chen Heng came here, he began to lose money yearly. The loss was naturally because he had bought too many things. The various materials and the corpses left behind by the various bloodlines. These were all big expenses that required money.
In addition, the taxes of these cities also needed to be used to support Chen Heng’s guards and servants. From Alice to the lowest servants in the palace, they all needed to rely on these taxes to support them.
Since Chen Heng came to Alan’s territory and left the capital, Alice had not had a day of an easy life. Once the taxes were sent to her every month, she would be in debt.
It was touching that there was still a surplus. However, unfortunately, Alice did not know that her celebrations were premature. Chen Heng would soon ask her to increase the intensity of the purchase of materials. At that time, the surplus would turn into debt in the blink of an eye.
Presumably, she would have a very complicated feeling then.
“Since the sales of the drugs are good, then increase the intensity of the production. But remember to control the purchase of materials. This cannot be stopped.”
Chen Heng smiled and said to Alice. The harvesting of the materials had something to do with Chen Heng’s bloodline advancement.
Many basic materials were the foundation for him to attempt the bloodline ascending ceremony in the future. However, he absolutely couldn’t let this go.
Alice nodded. Although her face was a little moody, she didn’t say anything more. Compared to before, now that there were the drugs, at least Chen Heng’s expenses could be supported.
Of course, this was only under the current circumstances. If she knew how big Chen Heng’s appetite was, she was afraid that he would not act so relaxed at this time.
“Also, if it’s just a drug, the audience is narrow-minded.”
Chen Heng thought for a moment and said, “Let Charlie prepare for it later. Try to make a few more new products in the next few days to open up our brand.”
Alice’s mouth corner twitched. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, she did not say anything. She wanted to tell Chen Heng that it was not simple to develop new products. Otherwise, everyone would have been rich long ago.
However, when she thought about the unbelievable aspects of Chen Heng and Charlie, she obediently shut her mouth in the end and forcefully held back her words.
“Forget it. No matter what we created, at least it can be digested through the royal family.”
She thought to herself. In theory, there was no need to worry about selling the new products launched in Alan’s territory. At the very least, they couldn’t suffer a loss.
Chen Heng was the Prince of the Violet Empire. This reason was sufficient. As a prince, Chen Heng could directly use part of the resources of the Violet Empire, including the various channels of the Royal Chamber of Commerce and other resources.
Under such circumstances, it would be a fantasy if he could still lose money. It was an incredible thing. At most, it would be a matter of earning more and less.
Thinking of this, Alice was somewhat unwilling. She looked at Chen Heng and said, “Your Highness, a few days ago, His Majesty sent an envoy to express his wish for you to return to the imperial city. Are you not going to consider it?”
With the disappearance of Aili, the Violet Empire was filled with gods and demons. The various factions were all moved by the empty position of the heir and began to take action. Unfortunately, there were too many problems that arose from this.
To stabilize the situation, King Violet had previously sent an envoy to invite Chen Heng to return to the capital.
This was a very obvious signal. Of the three princes who were qualified to inherit the throne, the most qualified candidate, Aili, had gone missing. Most likely, he would not be able to return in the future. So only Jason and Alan were left.
And whom among the two princes had the most advantage? From King Violet’s preferences, it seemed to be Chen Heng. After all, his predecessor was king Violet’s favorite child.
In the case of Aili’s disappearance, King Violet had personally invited Chen Heng to return to the imperial city. The political signal was too obvious.
It could be said that as long as Chen Heng nodded his head and returned to the imperial city, he would immediately surpass Jason and become the most popular person in the imperial city.
Unfortunately, faced with the temptation of the position of heir, Chen Heng appeared very calm, as if he did not care about it at all. He rejected King Violet’s invitation, saying he did not want to leave the territory.
The reason for this was that he had no other choice. It would have been fine if it wasn’t for the matter of the King’s Council. But now, Chen Heng’s true body had sneaked into the King’s Council. And he intended to stay there for a long time. So what was staying behind in Alan’s territory was just a clone.
This clone was usually used to deal with Alice and those guards, but to deal with King Violet or even the stronger powerhouses hidden in the capital? Forget it.
Chen Heng felt that he didn’t have the strength yet. The Violets Empire had a long history, and their bloodline originated from their ancestor. Who knew what kind of existence would be hidden in the capital.
It wouldn’t be long before he was exposed if he sent over a clone there. It didn’t matter if the clone was exposed, but he was afraid of alerting the enemy and letting the King’s Council receive the news, then exposing Chen Heng’s true body.
That would be troublesome.
Seeing that Chen Heng didn’t say anything, Alice was disappointed. However, she immediately understood what Chen Heng meant.
“Don’t worry.”
Chen Heng looked at Alice and said, “There will be opportunities in the future when I return to the imperial city. As for now, it’s not a good time.”
“What do you mean?”
Alice was stunned as if she had realized something.
“Do you think I can directly become my father’s successor if I go back now?”
Chen Heng glanced at Alice, then shook his head, turned around, and walked out.
In the eyes of Alice and the others, King Violet had taken the initiative to invite Chen Heng back to the Imperial City many times. This was his intention to make Chen Heng his successor.
But in Chen Heng’s eyes, this was just a small trick. It was most likely over at the imperial city. The person who took over the second Prince Jason was too out of character. That was why King Violet had made such a gesture, using Chen Heng’s existence to neutralize Jason’s faction.
If Chen Heng returned to the imperial city, he was afraid that he would not be facing the position of the heir but a tit-for-tat confrontation with Jason’s faction.
King Violet could also use this to balance and control the problem within a reasonable range.
Chen Heng had no intention of wasting his time on this. In this world, one still had to rely on one’s fists to speak. So naturally, he would want the position of King of the Violet Empire. However, he did not rely on King Violet’s offer but on his fists.
As long as he was strong enough, what could King Violet do even if he did not want to appoint Chen Heng as the successor? Would he dare not give it to Chen Heng?
After bidding farewell to Alice, Chen Heng walked to the other side of the laboratory. It was late at night, and there were few people in the laboratory. Only a few people were standing there, still busy.
Seeing Chen Heng enter, they all bowed respectfully and then quietly left. Except for Charlie.
“Mr. Chen Heng, you’re back?”
After not seeing him for a while, Charlie’s complexion looked much better. The sequelae of the bloodline transplant seemed to have lessened a lot in his body.
However, when he looked carefully, he could still feel a little strange, such as his scarlet eyes and the snake-like tongue that occasionally stuck out.
“I’m sorry.”
Seeing Chen Heng’s gaze, Charlie said with a bitter smile, “The bloodline’s influence on the body is too great. I can’t completely control it for the time being.
“There are always some instinctive movements that will appear. It’s very troublesome.”
“It’s okay.”
Chen Heng shook his head, indicating that he didn’t care. “It’ll be fine as long as you get used to it.
“However, the bloodline transplant on your body isn’t perfect. It still needs time to repair slowly.”
“Yes.”
Charlie nodded. “The acquired bloodline is more troublesome than the innate one. However, the potential gained from it is even stronger.”
The bloodline potential in Charlie’s body was not very strong. At most, it could only grow to the Second Rank.
However, after the bloodline was transplanted, the bloodline potential increased. Therefore, in the future, it could grow to the Fifth Rank naturally.
“The bloodline in this world is too exaggerated.”
Talking about the bloodline in his body, Charlie could not help but sigh, “In the World of Gods, the strongest bloodline I’ve seen was the Giant Dragon Tribe.”
“Even the weakest White Dragon can reach the Fourth Rank when it matures, and the Royal Golden Dragon can reach the Sixth Rank when it matures.”
“This is already terrifying, but compared to this world, it’s nothing.”
Indeed. The Golden Dragon was the royalty among the Giant Dragon Tribe. As long as it matures, it could reach the Sixth Rank, just one step away from reaching the Seventh Rank. This level should be terrifying, right?
But in this world, it was nothing. In this world, as long as they awakened their royal bloodline, they would most likely reach the Seventh Rank Epic level. Even those with a slightly weaker bloodline could reach the Sixth Rank, which was not inferior to a Golden Dragon.
However, compared to the growth period of a Golden Dragon, the growth period of many royal families in this world was much shorter. Therefore, it could be said that they had all the advantages.
“If a Golden Dragon is pure-blooded, its growth period is very long. It will take at least a few thousand years for it to naturally grow to the peak of the bloodline. However, if the purity of the royal family’s bloodline in this world is high enough, its growth period is also very long.”
Chen Heng thought for a moment, then concluded, “The reason it is relatively short is only because of the mixed blood.”
For bloodline species, the mixed-blood was not only a disadvantage but also an advantage.
Take the Golden Dragon, for example. It would theoretically take two to three thousand years for a pure-blooded Golden Dragon to reach the peak of the bloodline and the peak of the Sixth Rank.
However, if it was mixed blood between a Golden Dragon and a human with half of the Golden Dragon’s bloodline, it also had the potential to reach the Sixth Rank but at a faster growth speed. It might only take a few hundred years to reach the Fifth Rank.
This was the advantage of being a mixed-blood. The royal family in this world had a relatively short growth period, and it was most likely the advantage of being a mixed-blood.
The growth period of a pure-blooded progenitor’s bloodline might not be short, and it would most likely take a long time to grow. However, it was only because different bloodlines combined and mixed that the time for the bloodline to mature was greatly shortened.
This was the benefit of being a mixed-blood.
“The King’s Council seems to have a fixed source of the royal bloodline. If I have the chance, I will help you get some.”
Chen Heng looked at Charlie and said.
“Really?”
Charlie was a little surprised and repeatedly nodded at this moment. As long as the royal bloodline was awakened, it could reach the potential of the Seventh Rank. This was a surprise for Charlie.
In the World of Gods, his strength was only at the Sixth Rank in the World of Gods. He was still far from reaching the Seventh Rank. Now that he had the chance to reach the Seventh Rank in this world directly, it was naturally an excellent opportunity.
If he could do it, this trip would not have been in vain.
“That’s right.”
While feeling happy, Charlie also opened his mouth and told him about what he had discovered during this period. “Over at the Descender Assembly, I can confirm that it was Aisha’s doing.
“During the period of time you were away, I went to explore. I wanted to infiltrate the Descender Assembly to investigate the situation, but I was almost discovered.
“There is a powerful guardian equivalent to Fifth Rank level there. His power is very strong.”
No one else knew about Chen Heng’s departure, but Charlie naturally knew about it. Charlie had even helped to create that clone puppet.
