Hearing Zhuge Zhongguang's words, Lu Chen furrowed his brows.

So, does this mean that it's unlikely for Zhuge Zhongguang to manage a breakthrough to the Heavenly Human Realm in a short period?

This could be problematic, for if Zhuge Zhongguang can't break through to the Heavenly Human Realm, he might not be able to handle a siege by Grandmasters.

Even though he had reached the Zenith Realm of Grandmaster, allowing him to assist Zhuge Zhongguang from the sidelines, who knew how many Grandmasters his father the Emperor could call upon.

If it were one or two Grandmasters, then he wouldn't be so worried, but if there were five or six, he feared that he and Zhuge Zhongguang wouldn't be able to withstand them.

Even though North Country had entered the Age of Firearms, guns could only serve to suppress Grandmasters; to actually kill one, guns could not play a decisive role.

At that moment, Lu Chen suddenly thought of something, and then he took out an Essence Pill from the system space and said to Zhuge Zhongguang, "This is an Essence Pill, a type of Immortal Pill that can refine the meridians. Take it and see if it might help you break through to the Heavenly Human Realm."

Upon hearing these words, Zhuge Zhongguang was stunned. Once he regained his composure, Zhuge Zhongguang immediately said, "Prince, this shouldn't be, such a precious pill shouldn't be used by me."

Although Zhuge Zhongguang didn't know what an Essence Pill was and had never heard of it before, when Lu Chen mentioned that it was an Immortal Pill, Zhuge Zhongguang recognized the significance of the item.

Anything related to Immortals was invariably precious.

Lu Chen said indifferently, "I have plenty more here; take one and use it. For North Country, the value of a Heavenly Human Realm is far greater than that of this Immortal Pill."

Seeing Lu Chen insist, Zhuge Zhongguang felt it was inappropriate to continue refusing. He took the Essence Pill from Lu Chen's hand and then said, "Then, I must thank you greatly, Prince."

After receiving the Essence Pill, Zhuge Zhongguang wasted no words and immediately placed the Essence Pill in his mouth and swallowed it.

After consuming the Essence Pill, Zhuge Zhongguang instantly felt an indescribable lightness throughout his body. In the next moment, innumerable bamboo slips seemed to appear before his eyes, flashing by swiftly.

In Lu Chen's view, Zhuge Zhongguang's body was emitting a faint golden light, which seemed both mystical and extraordinary. In not too long, Zhuge Zhongguang's golden light converged, and then a sky-piercing golden pillar of light extended from his body, piercing through the roof of Lu Chen's study.

The phenomenon in the study swiftly caught the attention of all the citizens of Yan County; of course, it also caught the attention of the people in the Prince's Mansion.

When the wives and concubines of Lu Chen saw the pillar of light rising from the study, they were startled, fearing that something had happened to Lu Chen. They quickly made their way towards the study.

Soon the courtyard of the study was crowded with people.

At this time, Mu Zixuan also arrived outside the study courtyard. Seeing Chu Yuqin and the others at the door, not entering the study, she asked, "Chu, what has happened inside?"

Chu Yuqin replied, "I don't know either. Xiao Huan said the Prince and the Great Scholar were discussing important matters inside and asked us not to go in."

Hearing this, Mu Zixuan felt puzzled. What were Lu Chen and Zhuge Zhongguang discussing in the study that could cause such a phenomenon?

Dark clouds gathered in the sky above Yan County at that moment, growing denser as if the heavens were about to collapse. The golden pillar of light emerged from the clouds, amidst which thunder roared and lightning flashed. chapter-source-NovelFire

The thunder was like the roaring of a dragon within the clouds. The citizens of Yan County, seeing the golden pillar of light shooting from North Prince Mansion and witnessing such extraordinary phenomena, including the appearance of a "dragon," believed that the heavens were showing favor to the North Prince, causing the entire city's populace to kneel in the direction of North Prince Mansion.

Meanwhile, Lu Chen in the study saw that the golden pillar of light showed no signs of dissipating and was utterly astounded.

The commotion seemed to be getting a bit out of hand.

A pillar of light that thick shooting up into the sky would have been seen by all the citizens of the city by now, and since it was emanating from North Prince Mansion, how was he to explain this to the people?

Lu Chen sighed and thought to himself, well, let's take things one step at a time and see if Zhuge Zhongguang can break through to the Heavenly Human Realm.

At that moment, Zhuge Zhongguang stood rooted to the spot with his eyes closed, as if he had entered a meditative state.

After an indeterminate amount of time, countless golden bamboo slips appeared before Zhuge Zhongguang. Initially, these golden bamboo slips only appeared in Zhuge Zhongguang's mind, visible only to him. Now, Lu Chen could see them too.

Seeing these golden bamboo slips, Lu Chen couldn't help but feel awestruck. It seemed this world was far more magical than he had imagined; his understanding of it was probably less than one percent.

After the golden bamboo slips circled around Zhuge Zhongguang's body for a while, they instantly entered his body. Zhuge Zhongguang suddenly opened his eyes, emitting two beams of golden light.
