Imperial Banquet....

Ling Han waved his hand dismissively, “Let me catch my breath first. Also, no matter what happens, I have more important things to do first.”
And that naturally was to concoct the Five Elements Karmic Pill. Otherwise, why would he have gone out on a trip in the first place?
Of course, he had reaped huge rewards from this trip. He had obtained a piece of Origin Gold, and this was a good fortune that even Saints did not have. There was also the Buddhist Race’s Six Characters Bright King Curse. Even if it was only a single word, it was still a supreme precious technique.
He first went to concoct the Five Elements Karmic Pill. It was not difficult to concoct, but the difficulty lay in gathering the ingredients. With Ling Han’s abilities as a Grandmaster Alchemist, there was naturally no problem in concocting it.
He constructed a formation, stimulating the flames of heaven and earth, and began to concoct the alchemical pill.
Half a day later, the Five Elements Karmic Pill was completed.
There was only one, and it was a mixture of five colours, yet it formed a perfect balance.
Ling Han didn’t hesitate at all, immediately ingesting the alchemical pill.
At the beginning, the medicinal effects did not take effect. Everything was normal, but very soon, a turbulent change took place. It was clear that his level of being had not advanced, but the shackles were automatically shattering.
It was as if heaven and earth had moved, unleashing his potential.
This process lasted for about an hour, unlocking 10% of the shackles on Ling Han’s body, and this was not what made Ling Han the happiest.
Because with the help of this alchemical pill, Ling Han could completely see the shackles in his body.
Previously, he could only sense the shackles when his level of being was soaring, but it was also seeing one shackle after another, and he had not looked at them from a holistic perspective.
In truth, he did not know how many shackles there were in his body at all. It was like he was running blindfolded, and only knew that he was advancing, but he did not have the slightest impression of how far away the end point was.
But now, he could see how many shackles there were in his body. In future, he would have a direction, and a goal. If these shackles were not broken, he would definitely not break through to Celestial Path.
“I… don’t feel anything.” Ling Han exercised his limbs, but didn’t feel any improvement in his abilities. It was still the same as before.
“Father, unlocking the shackles will only decrease the obstruction of climbing the mountain in the future. It won’t make you immediately become stronger,” Second Baby said.
Ling Han smiled faintly. He was only sighing. In truth, he was already capable of sweeping aside all opposition in Mystery Realm Tier and being invincible within this cultivation level.
Only then did he meet up with Princess Bixiao, and find out about the current situation.
Reality surprised him, because aside from Tang Yun’er and Niu Jianhua, there were actually a great many extraterrestrial visitors that had descended. They were all the descendants of great elites. Their elders had predicted that the Celestial Sea Planet was about to awaken, and there would be great opportunities, so they sent their own descendants over to see if they could gain some glory.
In terms of star level, the grade of the Celestial Sea Planet definitely couldn’t be considered high, but the heaven and eart had just awakened, so there would definitely be a great many thousand-year-old treasured medicines appearing. There were some that even Sect Master-level elites were tempted by, so it was naturally necessary for them to make a trip.
However, the treasure troves had already been allocated cleanly, and there was no news of any Celestial Plants appearing. Hence, a great many extraterrestrial outsiders settled down in the Imperial Capital. After all, this place was prosperous.
“Now, from the Eldest Imperial Prince to the Thirteenth Imperial Prince, all of them have leaped over the Celestial Gate and become Foundation Building Tier elites,” Princess Bixiao said. “You must be careful. Though His Majesty is protecting you, those people are His Majesty’s own children, after all. Even if they really killed you, His Majesty would not punish them harshly.”
In a one-on-one battle, she was unafraid of even the Eldest Imperial Prince, who was born with a Divine Physique. However, if it was a battle of one against thirteen, even if she could match them, it was inevitable that she would be careless. It was impossible that she would be able to protect Ling Han completely.
Ling Han nodded. Right now, the pressure on him was still quite heavy. After all, if he wasn’t a Foundation Building cultivator, he would only be a mortal in the end.
“As long as all the shackles are unlocked, I will begin to break through to Celestial Path.”
Ling Han thought. He was sure that by that time, he would have accumulated enough mystical power to leap over the Celestial Gate.
Next, he began to live a low-key life. He stayed in his room all day and cultivated for a while. Most of his time was spent on the practice of the An character. This Buddhist Race technique was truly extensive and profound. It was clearly just a single word, yet it could produce all kinds of changes.
He discovered that he was still far from grasping the true meaning of this word.
After the little loli and the pervert pig met, they actually hit it off at first sight, and began to plan something in collusion. Ling Han couldn’t be bothered to care about them either. He only said that it was fine if they wanted to cause damage, but they definitely had to target bad people.
For example, the Seventh Imperial Prince.
A few days later, Princess Bixiao came to look for him.
“Empress Ma, Imperial Consort Lin and the others have joined forces to host a banquet, and have also given two invitations to the Foreign Affairs Department,” this princess of the Demon Race said.
“They’re still in the mood to host a banquet at a time like this?” Ling Han took the invitation and opened it. The words were very limited, just clearly expressing an invitation the banquet tomorrow night at Jiuhua Palace in the Imperial Palace.
“The Eldest Imperial Prince and the others have broken through to Celestial Path, and this is naturally a grand event for the Imperial Family. However, His Majesty has not appeared all this while, and no one else has had the chance to bring this up. Now, the Thirteenth Prince has also broken through a month ago, and the empress and noblewomen could no longer bear it,” Princess Bixiao said.
“When a mother hosts a celebratory feast for her son, even if His Majesty knows, it would not be appropriate to reprimand her.”
Princess Bixiao paused for a moment before asking, “Are you going?”
“Of course I’m going,” Ling Han said with a smile.
According to Princess Bixiao, Ling Han had best not show himself. When he advanced into Celestial Path, even if he was outnumbered, with his freakish talent, it would not be a problem for him to carve out a bloody path to escape.
But now, no matter how invincible you are in Mystery Realm Tier, you are still mortal. How could mortals fight against celestials?
“Then you had best keep a low profile, and not give the Eldest Imperial Prince and the others the chance to flip out,” she said solemnly.
“Don’t I have you to protect me?” Ling Han teased.
“Do you think I’m your bodyguard?” Princess Bixiao asked in irritation.
Ling Han chuckled upon hearing this. He didn’t have any ulterior motives toward this princess of the Demon Race, so he knew when to stop. He didn’t tease her any further, lest something “happen”.
Moreover, the empress and the others were about to come out. If they saw that Ling Han had courted a girl outside, they would definitely be jealous.
When Tang Yun’er found out, she also shouted that she wanted to go to the Imperial Palace. Naturally, she was suppressed by Ling Han. This little devil only knew how to cause damage, and if she went, who knew what kind of calamity would be caused.
The little loli was naturally very displeased, pouting and sulking.
“There, just obediently stay at home.” Ling Han tossed the perverted pig over to the little loli.
Pa, in a fit of pique, the little loli pushed with both hands, and threw out the perverted pig that had been thrown at her.
“Gu!” The perverted pig screamed. Who had it offended?
On the evening of the second day, Ling Han and Princess Bixiao arrived at the entrance. To attend the Imperial Banquet, they naturally had to travel by car. If they ran over on foot, that would really be laughable.
Today, Princess Bixiao was wearing light makeup. She was already extremely enchanting to begin with, and now, she was even more dazzling, causing Ling Han to whistle involuntarily.
“I say, are you planning to steal the limelight from the main characters?” he asked, smiling.
Princess Bixiao rolled her eyes at him.. ‘A girl will dress herself up for him who loves her, understand?’
