Chapter 458 -93 The Leaves of the Wisdom Clearing Tree
“Alright!”
Prince Yuanqing nodded, “It’s settled then! Everyone present today can bear witness.”
“Good!”
The Third Prince nodded, “How shall we wager?”
Prince Yuanqing: “Since we’re all cultivators here, with each expert possessing formidable strength, combat is naturally the most direct and effective way to resolve this! I haven’t sparred with my Imperial Brother in a long time, and my hands are itching for a fight…”
Saying this, Prince Yuanqing stepped forward before the other could respond, and a tempestuous surge of energy emanated from him.
“Sparring?”
The Third Prince was taken aback, yet before he could react, he saw his royal brother’s palm descend, glowing with golden light, as if transformed into an Aureate Body Buddha.
“Very well, let’s see how much my brother has improved!”
Realizing that retreat at this moment might lead to his ministers’ betrayal, the Third Prince stepped forward decisively and unleashed a powerful punch.
The two royal princes immediately engaged in battle.
“This…”
Seeing them fighting after coming to inquire about the Peerless Divine Pill, everyone exchanged bewildered glances, unsure of what was happening.
“Who do you think will win?” a middle-aged man whispered in the crowd.
“Prince Yuanqing’s strength is pure and robust, while the Third Prince’s techniques are exquisite, mastering the art of power. In cultivation, he might be a cut above…”
The woman beside him pondered briefly, speaking slowly, but before her words finished, Prince Yuanqing suddenly advanced, his strength surging dramatically.
If the strength of his palm was a 3 earlier, it had now undoubtedly reached a 5!
The strength doubled, blasting forth like a hurricane, forcing the Third Prince, who had been evenly matched, to retreat step by step.
“That’s not right, how did he suddenly become so strong?” Elder Gu You frowned.
Given that the Third Prince could compete with the Crown Prince, their cultivation and strength should be roughly equal, as the earlier battle demonstrated. Yet the Crown Prince’s sudden surge of power seemed incredible to anyone.
“It’s only the strength that increased, not the cultivation…” Qin Suxin said calmly, with her hands behind her back.
“Hmm!” Elder Gu You nodded.
He also realized that the Crown Prince’s sudden surge in strength was not related to his cultivation.
Nonetheless, even so, it was quite terrifying.
“It’s his heart… the sudden burst of power from his heart is several times stronger than before.”
Qin Suxin continued, “You can use this to take a look.”
With that, she handed Elder Gu You a leaf.
Elder Gu You took it and placed it on his forehead.
The leaf from the Wisdom Clearing Tree, when placed on the forehead, could temporarily endow one with the Wisdom Eye, allowing them to see things invisible to the naked eye.
With the leaf in place, Elder Gu You indeed saw that every beat of Prince Yuanqing’s heart at his chest released boundless power, filling his body and reinforcing his aura.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The more it beat, the stronger the power became. If it was a 5 before, it had now reached 5.5, and seemed on the brink of breaking through.
“Is this… the Eternal Heart?”
Elder Gu You’s pupils constricted.
Such rapid power enhancement could only mean one thing… the Eternal Heart!
“No wonder he didn’t bring out the Peerless Divine Pill. It turns out he has already consumed it and fused it with his heart.”
Realizing this, the previous perplexities all suddenly made sense.
“This duel not only disgraced the Third Prince in front of so many witnesses, leaving him with a blemish he can’t cleanse; it’s also proven that the Peerless Divine Pill has been consumed by him, warning any scheming minds to give up! Unless… he’s killed, there will be no other chance. Most importantly, it proves that chasing Zhang Xuan indeed has nothing to do with the Eternal Heart…”
Elder Gu You couldn’t help but sigh, “What a move of killing three birds with one stone. Without needing an explanation, all doubts were dispelled, and he crushed his competitor thoroughly… As expected of the Crown Prince!”
Earlier, he wondered how the other would explain the issue of the Peerless Divine Pill. Seeing this, he understood that the young man before him was young yet extraordinarily calculating.
Everyone present, whose power reached the peak of Life Sea 9-dan, would instantly notice the heart’s transformation. Even if they couldn’t see clearly, others would explain.
Thus, any wish to take a glimpse of the Peerless Divine Pill had already vanished.
“It’s killing four birds with one stone… the pressure is now on our Medicine Sect!” Qin Suxin shook her head.
It was short-sighted of her to take Elder Jiang Li away. Now, everyone witnessed the soon-to-be accomplished Eternal Heart instead of the Peerless Divine Pill, making them even more excited, leaving the Medicine Sect in turmoil.
She thought that the news spread by the Wanxiang Sect would cause him great trouble, but instead, it became a burden for their Medicine Sect.
It’s foreseeable that from today onwards, people coming to the Medicine Sect looking for him and Elder Jiang Li would increase.
Thump, thump, thump!
During the conversation, the battle between Yuanqing and Yuan Bin was nearing its end.
With the constant addition of power, Yuan Bin soon found himself on the defensive. After several punches, his face turned red, and he spat blood, crashing heavily to the ground. Despite the discontent in his eyes, he knew he had lost completely!
In an internal duel, humiliation remains internal, but now, with nearly thirty powerful clans across the mainland witnessing his defeat, even if he becomes the Crown Prince, he would be looked down upon.
It can be said that this contest had already extinguished his path to succession.
“Thank you, Imperial Brother, for granting me this!”
Prince Yuanqing approached, gently plucking the pearl from his hat, holding it in his hand, “I quite like it!”
Finished speaking, he turned and left.
“Pfft!”
Unable to contain it any longer, the Third Prince spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled to his feet, “Thank you, Imperial Brother, for your mercy…”
Then, not looking at anyone else, he turned and flew out, vanishing from the hall in the blink of an eye.
“Everyone…”
Seeing him leave, knowing his goal achieved, Prince Yuanqing was about to speak again when he heard Hall Master Qin Suxin’s voice from not far away.
“Elder Jiang Li, the Medicine Sect has nothing pressing for now. Stay with the Crown Prince and recuperate well… strive to regain your strength quickly! I’ll head back first…”

“Hall Master Qin…”
Startled by her words, Prince Yuanqing called out urgently, but before he could finish, she had already vanished from the hall.
“Your Highness, a pressing matter has arisen at the Wanxiang Sect that I must attend to. Farewell!”
Elder Gu You swung his sleeve.
Since the Crown Prince had proven the pill was already forged, staying any longer was pointless.
Just then, a faint voice echoed.
“Elder Gu You, wait. This Prince has a matter needing the Wanxiang Sect’s assistance!”
