At the entrance of the palace, the carriage slowly came to a halt. A eunuch was already waiting at the entrance. Lin Fei got off the carriage.

Ling Yao couldn't help but lean out and say, "Lin Fei, follow this eunuch, he can take you to the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber.'" Then, Ling Yao spoke to the eunuch, "Thank you, eunuch."

The eunuch hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Highness, you're too kind. Young Master Lin, please follow me."

Lin Fei nodded. He then followed the eunuch into the palace. Lin Fei followed the eunuch all the way to the center of the palace. They slowly approached a palace wall. The eunuch searched for a while on the wall and then pressed hard.

"Click."

The ground slowly cracked open, revealing layers of stairs, forming a downward staircase. But the inside was not pitch black. There were candles on the walls, illuminating the passage.

"Young Master Lin, please go ahead. There will be someone inside to receive you, so I won't go down."

Lin Fei nodded. He went straight down the stairs. Lin Fei realized that the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber' should be underground. Moreover, as soon as he stepped on the stairs. Lin Fei immediately had a feeling.

"Is this... a formation?"

Although Lin Fei was not a Qi cultivator and couldn't set up a formation, he had seen quite a few formations.

For example, the Yin Gathering Formation, Concealment Formation, and so on. Therefore, Lin Fei had a good understanding of the formations set up by Qi cultivators.

At a glance, he could see that there was a formation here. Furthermore, the formation here was vast and extremely terrifying!

Soon, Lin Fei arrived at the end of the passage. Looking ahead, it was a huge underground hall. The place was filled with lit candles. The lighting was bright. However, there seemed to be very few people. There were only three elders sitting on cushions in the hall.

Lin Fei took a closer look. These three elders were the same ones who had presided over the royal competition earlier.

"Lin Fei pays his respects to the three seniors!"

Lin Fei took a step forward and bowed to the three elders.

"Lin Fei, you've arrived. The princess has told us about your situation. You want to unblock the Ren and Du meridians and break through to the innate realm?"

Lin Fei nodded and said, "Yes, my current inner power has reached its limit. The next step is to unblock the Ren and Du meridians and advance to the innate realm!"

The three elders nodded and said, "Then you've come to the right place. This is the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber', where only high-level Qi cultivators and innate martial artists can stay. As for the benefits of the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber', you'll naturally find out once you enter the secret chamber and try to unblock the Ren and Du meridians.

Here are the records of innate martial artists unblocking the Ren and Du meridians that the princess has obtained for you. These three books contain detailed records and insights from our royal family's innate martial artists. They should be of some help to you."

Lin Fei took the three books.

He hesitated for a moment but still asked, "Senior Sister Ling once said that the three seniors simply wanted to form a good connection with me, just like the founder of the Nine Profound Sect. May I ask the three seniors, why is this? Or, what is the connection between the Nine Profound Sect founder and the royal family?"

If you spot this narrative on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

This was also a doubt in Lin Fei's heart.

The three elders smiled slightly and said, "You don't need to worry. When we say we want to form a good connection with you, it definitely means a good connection. Besides, there must be a reason for allowing you to enter the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber.' However, none of this is important. If you don't become an innate martial artist, you don't need to know the reason. If you do become an innate martial artist, this old man will tell you the reason."

Lin Fei understood. The innate martial artist was the key. Even if the three elders allowed him to enter the "Ascending Dragon Chamber" and wanted to form a good connection with Lin Fei, they must be looking to form a good connection with Lin Fei after he became an innate martial artist. If he didn't become innate, it would all be in vain.

Even if Lin Fei had comprehended Martial Dao True Intent and had killed He Yunzi, if he wouldn't become an innate martial artist, in the eyes of these royal elders, he wouldn't even be qualified to know the "reason."

"Alright, go to the Heaven Room. It's currently vacant, and you can practice in there."

"Thank you, three seniors."

Lin Fei took the nameplate. Following the direction pointed out by the three elders. Lin Fei quickly found the secret chamber of the "Heaven Room." So, he quickly opened the secret chamber and went in.

Watching Lin Fei enter the secret chamber, the gazes of the three elders were somewhat profound.

"Another martial arts genius has emerged from the Nine Profound Sect. However, it's unknown if this martial arts genius can inherit the mantle of the Nine Profound Sect's founder? Letting him enter the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber' and forming a good connection with him, is it worth it? If he doesn't become innate, it would all be in vain..."

The three elders sighed deeply. In their eyes, things like Martial Dao True Intent, or three-in-one inner power, were all useless, only by becoming innate would they truly "catch" their eyes.

At this moment, inside the "Heaven Room" secret chamber, as soon as Lin Fei entered the secret chamber, he immediately smelled a strange fragrance. This fragrance could refresh one's mind, and the chaotic thoughts gradually calmed down. Obviously, this fragrance was likely a very precious item.

Lin Fei didn't think about anything else. Instead, he completely calmed his mind. With his whole heart and soul, he prepared to unblock the Ren and Du meridians and try to break through to the innate realm! However, before that, he still needed to read the three books in his hands.

Lin Fei opened one of the books. This was the experience and insights of a royal family's innate martial artist when breaking through to the innate realm. This royal family's innate martial artist's experience was to push forward with all his might and directly unblock the Ren and Du meridians. Apparently, this innate martial artist's inner power was very strong.

The second book contained a different approach. This innate martial artist's inner power was not too strong. So, he used a more gentle approach. First, he slowly unblocked the Ren meridian and then the Du meridian. It took him a full three days to succeed. The process was also very thrilling.

The third book was similar to the experience in the first book. Both were pushing forward with all their might and directly unblocking the Ren and Du meridians.

After a long time, Lin Fei closed the three books. He appeared to be deep in thought.

"It seems that the most important factor for martial artists to break through to the innate realm is inner power! If inner power is strong enough, one can break through the Ren and Du meridians in one fell swoop. If inner power is slightly weaker, one has to use a more gradual approach, slowly unblocking the Ren and Du meridians, and taking a certain risk. So, which method should I choose?"

Lin Fei muttered to himself. Many thoughts flashed through his mind. However, Lin Fei quickly made a decision. His inner power had already merged threefold, his body had undergone a second growth, and the depth of his inner power was unimaginable, far surpassing other acquired peak martial artists.

In addition, the Three Vitality Technique was very good at unblocking meridians. For Lin Fei, he had at least a 90% chance of successfully becoming an innate martial artist

"The techniques to unblock the Ren and Du meridians, the precautions to be aware of. And the special place of the 'Ascending Dragon Chamber,' which helps martial artists advance to the innate realm. Enough, everything is well-prepared. There's no need to hesitate. Martial artists should be aggressive and not look back. So, let the breakthrough to the innate realm begin..."

Lin Fei hesitated no more. At this moment, he cleared all distracting thoughts from his mind. His mind was completely calm. He "saw" the Ren and Du meridians within his body, which like two chasms, separated Lin Fei's body from communication with the outside world.

"With one burst of energy, break through the Ren and Du meridians, and connect the bridge between heaven and earth!"

Lin Fei's thoughts moved. All the inner power within his body, like a restless volcano, erupted with a bang!
