Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

Chu Yunfan stepped on Zhou Tiansheng's shoulders and ascended the throne of the Hundred Battles Emperor.

At this moment, the Zhou family naturally did not have a good impression of Chu Yunfan.

Zhou Tiansheng even thought about defeating Chu Yunfan and wiping away his shame at all times.

However, whether it was an attempt to win him over or malicious intent, none of that mattered to Chu Yunfan at this moment.

Upon learning that Chu Yunfan had gone into seclusion to cultivate, the fat man arranged for the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce to protect the secluded courtyard and prevent others from disturbing Chu Yunfan.

However, although no one disturbed them.

However, Chu Yunfan still encountered trouble during his cultivation this time.

"What's going on? Why do I become so restless at the last moment, unable to let my soul finally take shape?"

Inside the secret room, Chu Yunfan opened his eyes, his gaze filled with confusion.

With his talent, he has had a smooth journey since he started cultivating, without encountering any bottlenecks.

Even breaking through to the Martial King realm is as difficult as ascending to heaven for others.

However, Chu Yunfan believed in himself and could easily break through.

But then, he encountered difficulties.

"Could it be that during the period from Martial Sect Realm to Martial Venerable Realm, the cultivation level improved too quickly and was not completely stabilized, leaving hidden dangers and causing inner demons?"

After much thought, Chu Yunfan could only come up with this possibility.

The so-called inner demons are negative thoughts that cultivators may frequently experience during their cultivation journey.

However, generally speaking, only cultivators with poor aptitude, weak cultivation, or wavering will are prone to being troubled by inner demons when breaking through realms.

For a genius like Chu Yunfan, with a will as firm as steel and extraordinary talent in cultivation, it is rare to encounter inner demons.

The only possible situation to encounter inner demons is when one's cultivation is not solid enough, making one vulnerable to their inner demons taking advantage of one's weaknesses.

Realizing this, Chu Yunfan made a decisive decision to stop his seclusion and head to the arena, intending to consolidate his cultivation through numerous battles.

However, as soon as he stepped into the arena, Chu Yunfan suddenly changed his mind.

Because he felt that familiar call again.

"Could it be that the reason I'm developing inner demons isn't because my cultivation is unstable, but because of this summoning force?"

To be honest, Chu Yunfan had previously guessed that the reason he developed inner demons was because his cultivation was not stable enough.

In reality, he had doubts about this conjecture, but he couldn't find any other reason, so he attributed it to this cause.

In fact, he knew very well that since the inner sect competition, he had used so many methods to stabilize his cultivation, it was almost impossible for his cultivation to still be unstable.

The automatic increase in his cultivation level during his previous dual cultivation with the goddesses of beauty and talent proved that his cultivation had become completely stable.

Only when he stepped into the arena and felt that summons again did Chu Yunfan realize that the truth might lie in this inexplicable summons.

From the moment Chu Yunfan first sensed this calling, a thought arose in his mind: to figure out exactly what this calling was.

However, Chu Yunfan had not yet found a suitable opportunity to answer this question.

Even after wandering around the underground space of the Colosseum for a whole time last time, Chu Yunfan still couldn't find the answer to this question, thus failing to dispel this doubtful thought.

Thus, this idea took root in Chu Yunfan's mind.

It wasn't until Chu Yunfan was about to break through to the Martial King realm that this transformed into a mental demon within him, preventing him from achieving his breakthrough.

"It seems we must find out today why this summons has come!"

Chu Yunfan stared at the floor beneath his feet, then took out a golden token and began to contact Xu Tianlong.

Unfortunately, Xu Tianlong was busy with other matters, so he arranged for one of his subordinates to receive Chu Yunfan for a short while.

Then, Chu Yunfan directly ordered this subordinate to lead him to the slave market beneath the arena.

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's request, the subordinate immediately agreed with a smile and then led Chu Yunfan to the slave market beneath the arena.

However, it wasn't long before Chu Yunfan discovered that the route to the underground slave market this time was different from the route he had taken with Xu Tianlong last time.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan became suspicious and asked directly:

"This route seems different from the one I took last time."

Upon hearing this, the person leading the way immediately began to explain:

"Last time you went with Deacon Xu, that was the special passage for important people."

I don't have that authority; I can only lead you down another path!

After saying this, the person leading the way didn't forget to smile obsequiously at Chu Yunfan.

Seeing this, Chu Yunfan nodded and did not ask any further questions.

At the same time, the person leading the way turned around and, out of Chu Yunfan's sight, revealed a strange smile.

Then, Chu Yunfan followed the person who was leading the way and continued forward.

The calling that Chu Yunfan felt in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

At a certain moment, a bloody smell suddenly wafted into Chu Yunfan's nose and mouth, waking him up.

Why is there a smell of blood here?

Chu Yunfan stopped and stared warily at the person leading the way.

However, seeing Chu Yunfan's reaction, the person leading the way showed no sign of nervousness, and simply smiled and explained:

“The arena is filled with daily battles and the slaughter of monsters for food, which generates a lot of blood.”

Therefore, a huge underground space was specially created in the Colosseum to temporarily contain this blood, and then let this blood slowly blend into the land and underground rivers.

The path we're walking on now is a little close to this underground space, so we occasionally smell blood.

"Young master, there's no need to be nervous. Just keep following me; the slave market is not far ahead!"

Upon hearing the man's reply, Chu Yunfan remained vigilant and immediately stood still, unleashing the perfect Wind Sword Intent.

By perfecting the Wind Sword Intent, Chu Yunfan can spread his consciousness into the air to investigate the surrounding situation.

This approach is somewhat similar to the soul detection of experts at the Martial King realm or above.

As his consciousness continued to expand outward, finally, an endless sea of ​​blood appeared in Chu Yunfan's perception.

At the same time, the feeling of being summoned in Chu Yunfan's mind was extremely strong, as if someone was whispering in his ear.

"Come on! Here are the secrets you want to know!"

Noticing this strange feeling, Chu Yunfan immediately withdrew all his consciousness and stared solemnly at the direction he had just sensed.

"This sea of ​​blood gives me a strange feeling, like a demon is luring an innocent girl?"

As a bright young man of the 21st century, having watched countless films, Chu Yunfan immediately thought of the scenes in movies where demons tempt humans to fall into depravity.

Just then, the voice of the person leading the way suddenly rang in Chu Yunfan's ears.

"Young master, you look so serious. Has something happened?"
