A great emperor master every day—the good-for-nothing young master is having a blast!

But the change in the situation now was completely unexpected for the two of them.

Seeing those kings kneeling on the ground felt like a daydream.

Yao Yu quickly rubbed her eyes and asked doubtfully, "Second Senior Brother, are my eyes... really okay?"

Musin's expression was also full of questions. "I don't know if there's something wrong with your eyes, but there's probably something wrong with mine."

"How could those King Realm experts be kneeling on the ground?"

When the Ninth Prince saw the people who had just stood up immediately kneel down again, he was instantly enraged and shouted at them, "Why aren't you getting up?!"

The powerful figures at the King Realm had no way to express their suffering; it wasn't that they didn't want to stand up, but that they simply couldn't.

It felt as if a mountain was pressing down on their shoulders; no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't move their bodies an inch.

No one could understand how the young man in front of them had managed to easily control five King-level experts.

"Your Highness, we can't move at all!"

"There seems to be an extremely powerful force suppressing us."

Chen Yue and the Ninth Prince locked eyes, and Chen Yue asked that familiar question once again.

"Your Highness, Ninth Prince, why don't you calm down and think this over carefully?"

The five King Realm experts around him were inexplicably suppressed, and apart from Chen Yue, no one else present had any reason to do this.

Looking at the young man before him, the Ninth Prince remained rational and said to Chen Yue with a smile, "If you have designs on this Sea Soul Jade, then everything is negotiable."

"Young brother, would you be so kind as to release my guards first, and then we can discuss this Sea Soul Jade?"

Chen Yue nodded to the Heavenly Emperor beside him, indicating that he could temporarily withdraw his oppressive aura.

The two sides have not yet reached the point of being at loggerheads, but if the Ninth Prince shows strong hostility towards him...

With Emperor Qingxuan and Emperor Tianji present, Chen Yue had to consider taking a hard line.

Five mid-stage King Realm experts could indeed dominate the Lingyuan Mountain Range, but for Chen Yue, it was a piece of cake.

Only after the Heavenly Emperor's oppressive aura was completely dispelled did the assembled Kings finally get a chance to catch their breath.

It seemed as if the mountain that had been pressing down on their shoulders had vanished without a trace in an instant.

Several King Realm experts quickly stood up, and a strange look of disbelief appeared in their eyes as they looked at Chen Yue.

Facing the Ninth Prince of the Great Yuan Dynasty and numerous powerful figures at the King Realm alone, Chen Yue remained neither humble nor arrogant, showing no sign of stage fright.

The Ninth Prince slowly walked out from behind and stood in front of the royal guards.

Seeing this, the people from the Holy Land quickly adjusted their state and calmly stood behind Chen Yue.

Only then, with the friendly mediation of the Heavenly Emperor, were both sides finally able to stand together and communicate on an equal footing.

Chen Yue said calmly, "Your Highness, Ninth Prince, can you now tell me more about this Sea Soul Jade?"

The Ninth Prince immediately questioned, "What is your purpose in wanting this piece of Sea Soul Jade? If you also intend to use it for appreciation, then don't blame me for not agreeing to your impolite request."

Chen Yue shook his head slightly, denying the Ninth Prince's words.

"Your Highness, you are overthinking this. I am not that bored. I came here to offend you simply to collect this piece of Sea Soul Jade."

"This intact piece of Sea Soul Jade is extremely important to me; I must collect it to refine that elixir."

"Without the Sea Soul Jade, all my previous efforts will have been in vain."

After hearing these words, the Ninth Prince laughed loudly and unrestrainedly: "How interesting. What does it have to do with me whether your previous efforts were in vain or not?"

"This Sea Soul Jade was extracted from the body of a Steelbone Jade Shark, which was personally killed by the head of the Su family."

"The Su family head gave me this Sea Soul Jade, not so that I would help a complete stranger."

"Besides, if I hand over this piece of Sea Soul Jade to you, what will you give me in return? A vague thank you?"

Chen Yue countered, "Your Highness, what do you want? I can give you something in exchange."

When he said those words, Chen Yue couldn't help but feel a little uneasy, as he didn't have anything he could exchange with the Ninth Prince.

The only thing they had were the memories of their three great emperor masters, the long-lost cultivation techniques, and the alchemy and weapon-making skills they had devoted their lives to studying.

The Ninth Prince found it amusing upon hearing this. He was born into the Yuan Dynasty royal family and had lived a life of ease and comfort since childhood.

As the youngest of the ninth sons of the Great Yuan Emperor, he was showered with love and affection from birth, even though his talent for cultivation was not great.

He was only eighteen years old this year and had just reached the early stage of the Spirit Mansion realm, but this did not affect the Emperor and his several royal brothers in the slightest. They spared no effort in pouring all kinds of cultivation resources into him, allowing his cultivation to steadily increase.

He simply couldn't think of anything he needed.

Even if he truly desired something, it wasn't available in the Great Yuan Dynasty, so how could it possibly be in this small Lingyuan Mountain Range?

Having lived a life of excessive wealth in the first half of his life, the Ninth Prince couldn't think of anything he wanted at the moment.

Even the Sea Soul Jade in his hand was dispensable, as there were many other ornamental items in the palace that could replace it.

It was only because the Sea Soul Jade was the core of a sixth-tier Steel Bone Jade Shark that the Ninth Prince felt a brief sense of novelty.

After carefully considering what he wanted, the Ninth Prince thought it through from beginning to end and finally made some progress.

There was one thing he had been learning since childhood: the Inscription Source Array.

When he entered the Spirit Mansion Realm, he drew a primary inscription source array under the guidance of his teacher.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, he will likely stop at the beginner level of inscription source array in his lifetime.

Even in the Great Yuan Dynasty, the number of inscription source array masters was very small, and those who could draw basic inscription source arrays at will were even rarer.

Back then, when the Great Yuan Emperor was searching for Inscription Source Array Masters within the Great Yuan territory, he could only find a few novice Inscription Source Array Masters, and there was not even a trace of intermediate ones.

Even intermediate-level inscription source arrays have not been completely passed down.

Many fragments of intermediate-level inscription source arrays, lacking sufficient information, have been passed down, making it impossible to draw a complete array.

If there is even one error in the inscription source array, all the previous efforts will be in vain.

Now that the Ninth Prince has been able to draw a basic inscription array, he naturally wants to pursue higher levels of cultivation.

Unfortunately, in places like the Great Yuan Dynasty in the Eastern Region, the information on inscription source arrays also suffered from gaps.

This prevents those who want to learn inscription source arrays from progressing further, leaving them stuck at the beginner level for their entire lives.

The only thing the Ninth Prince could think of that he needed was a mid-level inscription source array that could not be found anywhere in the entire Great Yuan Dynasty.

However, he also knew in his heart that if the Great Yuan Dynasty didn't have it, how could the small Lingyuan Mountain Range possibly have it?

But the Ninth Prince still said, "I need information on a mid-level inscription source array. If you can produce it, this Sea Soul Jade is yours."
