Chapter 821: Sealing the Dragon Qi (With thanks to 'Jiangnan V Myth' for the reward support)
September 25, 2017
Lu Hai Kong has always had a peculiar habit of focusing on building a solid foundation, especially after reaching the 90th level.
In order to strengthen his foundation, Lu Hai Kong has been neglecting his cultivation of the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Art in the past couple of years, instead devoting most of his time to honing basic skills.
However, due to the domineering nature of the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Art, Lu Hai Kong's accumulated power has been forcibly converted into the power of the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Art. This has resulted in Lu Hai Kong possessing a substantial amount of inner power.
This inner power has an innate domineering attribute, and any power that enters its territory must either be driven away or assimilated. This is also the case with the Dragon Qi.
When the Dragon Qi of Emperor Ling clashed with Lu Hai Kong's inner power, the domineering attribute of the inner power immediately erupted. Lu Hai Kong didn't even have to command it; his inner power spontaneously attacked the Dragon Qi, trying to expel it. This situation became even more dire for Lu Hai Kong.
It's worth noting that the human body's meridians are quite fragile. Even though Lu Hai Kong's body has been honed to an incredibly terrifying degree, his meridians are only a few times stronger than an average person's. Such meridians can withstand cultivation, but they are not suitable for battles between inner power and Dragon Qi.
Upon contact, both sides suffered greatly.
Aside from the intense pain, the meridians were on the verge of shattering under the collision of inner power and Dragon Qi. Lu Hai Kong twitched as he struggled to control his inner power and prevent it from clashing with the Dragon Qi.
Unfortunately, Lu Hai Kong's inner power had a temper, and its quality was terrifying. The explosive power was equally astonishing. Lu Hai Kong's inner power, thinking it could expel the Dragon Qi, attempted to wrap around it.
But Lu Hai Kong's inner power was no match for the Dragon Qi. It immediately chased after Lu Hai Kong's inner power, which fled into his Dantian.
The meridians were at their limit. If Lu Hai Kong dared to summon even a fraction of his inner power, the Dragon Qi in his Dantian would revolt.
Fortunately, Lu Hai Kong's Dantian was slightly stronger than his inner power, and the Dragon Qi was not in large quantity, but its quality was terrifying.
However, once the Dragon Qi entered Lu Hai Kong's Dantian, the situation changed drastically. Lu Hai Kong directly controlled his inner power, which was several times stronger than the Dragon Qi, and enveloped the Dragon Qi, sealing it within his Dantian.
This may sound simple, but it was a dangerous endeavor for Lu Hai Kong.
The Dragon Qi not only had a temper, but its quality was terrifying, and its explosive power was astonishing. Lu Hai Kong's inner power, thinking it could subdue the Dragon Qi, needed to perform a highly challenging operation.
To control the Dragon Qi, Lu Hai Kong sat in meditation for over half an hour, finally relying on his formidable martial arts cultivation to seal the Dragon Qi.
Lu Hai Kong not only sealed the Dragon Qi, but during the struggle with the Dragon Qi, he unexpectedly discovered that the Dragon Qi and his inner power, or the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Art, had a decent compatibility. If he could refine the Dragon Qi, both Lu Hai Kong's strength and the Purple Qi Rising Dragon Art would experience significant growth.
Unfortunately, the Dragon Qi was not only of high quality but also in small quantity. Lu Hai Kong's current strength was insufficient to consume it. He exhausted all his skills and could only manage to control the Dragon Qi.
Moreover, because his inner power was controlling and sealing the Dragon Qi, Lu Hai Kong couldn't even mobilize his inner power at this time. If he dared to move a fraction of his inner power, the Dragon Qi in his Dantian would revolt.
In this situation, Lu Hai Kong was essentially sealing a part of his own strength by controlling his inner power.
Fortunately, even without the use of inner power, Lu Hai Kong's physical strength was formidable, and he had many powerful generals under his command. Recently, there hadn't been many situations that required his personal intervention, so sealing his inner power wasn't a significant issue. Moreover, if Lu Hai Kong could refine or control the Dragon Qi in the future, his strength would experience a substantial increase.

Emperor Ling, having spent a long time, finally managed to seal the dragon energy. Lu HaiKong opened his eyes.
It was fortunate that Yue Ying was by his side, otherwise Lu HaiKong might have been in danger.
After all, this was the Imperial Palace, and with such a big incident, there was bound to be some commotion within the palace.
However, before the guards could enter, Yue Ying had already driven them away.
This was not due to Yue Ying's terrifying strength, but rather her unique ability to alter her appearance and voice. For her, imitating Emperor Ling's voice was a simple task, and with a single word, she managed to scare away the group of guards.
At this moment, Lu HaiKong felt a sense of crisis looming over him, an overwhelming feeling that he would face backlash from the Imperial Palace's aura if he were to take this Imperial Seal out of Emperor Ling's chamber.
The Imperial Seal, as the national treasure of the Great Han Empire, was not something to be taken lightly. It played a crucial role in stabilizing and channeling the nation's aura, and its existence was of utmost importance to the empire.
Lu HaiKong knew that attempting to take the seal out of the palace would come at a cost, such as being suppressed by the nation's aura.
The Great Han Empire was on the brink of collapse, but its aura was not to be underestimated. At least, Lu HaiKong couldn't bear the consequences at this moment, so he hesitated.
However, his hesitation didn't last long. He turned back, put the seal back by Emperor Ling's side, and then turned to leave. Just as he was about to exit the chamber, someone arrived outside.
"Your Majesty, I, He Jin, seek an audience!"
