Without anyone else knowing, changes were going on within Chen Heng's body.

His surging energy became more and more powerful to the point that even he was quite shocked.

​​

I'm already near Great Accomplishment in Martial Illumination…

This body of his had originally been at the Martial Illumination realm, but he had been still quite a distance away from Great Accomplishment.

Now, with the manifestation of his Body Forging Completion cultivation, it seemed that it had given him a big push.

Now, he was not too far away from Great Accomplishment in the Martial Illumination realm.

It seems that stacking different systems is not always one plus one but sometimes produces greater effects…

Sensing the changes in his body, Chen Heng thought to himself.

It was just like how the Body Forging Technique and Knight Breathing Technique synergized together as well.

It seemed that the Body Forging Technique and this world's martial arts had similar effects, if not greater.

From how things seemed, using the Body Forging Technique card was quite worth it.

Following this, Chen Heng turned and looked to the side.

The Knight Talent card was still descending and was being converted.

"Conversion in progress due to the difference in worlds…"

Faint words appeared before Chen Heng's eyes.

It needs to be converted?

Chen Heng was not surprised and only silently waited.

Different worlds often had different rules.

As such, some things that could exist in some worlds could not exist in other worlds.

As such, they had to be converted to become things that were appropriate for the current world.

This was one of the simulation's rules that Chen Heng had long since known about.

Currently, he felt quite excited.

He wondered what the Knight Talent from the Sorcerer World would be converted into.

He sat there and slowly watched the Knight Talent card being converted.

As time passed, Chen Heng began to feel further changes in his body.

Near his heart, a strange energy rushed out, bringing with it a unique feeling.

Bang! Bang!

The sound of his heartbeat continuously sounded out, sounding vigorous and powerful.

A new energy appeared within Chen Heng's body.

It was similar to life energy but also different.

At that moment, Chen Heng could feel his power once again increasing.

He could even tell that with a single thought, he could enter a unique status and ignite his qi blood to go into an ignition state—it was like a Knight's Life Ignition.

Ignition, eh?

Chen Heng nodded and smiled, Not bad at all.

In the Sorcerer World, Knights could stimulate their Life Seeds to temporarily obtain great power.

Now, Chen Heng seemed to be able to do the same thing in this world.

It was just that the way that it manifested was a bit different.

However, it was evident just how much stronger this would make him in battle.

It was incredibly necessary in their current situation.

Thinking to there, Chen Heng looked into the distance.

It was currently night time, and the surroundings were quite dark.

A faint breeze blew over the grass, and soft rustling sounds sounded out from small animals.

Everything seemed incredibly peaceful and calm.

Sitting there, Chen Heng smiled and looked forward to the future.

The next day, sunlight shined on the ground.

Song Qi woke early in the morning and looked out.

Not too far away, Chen Heng was sitting there by himself, his body covered with dew.

It seemed that he had stood guard for the entire night and had not rested.

Looking at him like this, Song Qi could not help but feel respect.

Since a few nights ago, Chen Heng had been standing guard at night, warily watching the surroundings. He never let down his guard from morning until night.

Putting aside his strength, just this loyalty was a very rare characteristic.

There was no doubt that Chen Heng was doing his job incredibly well.

Apart from him being very strict on himself and responsible, he was a rare genius.

From what Song Qi remembered, after 15 years, Chen Yu had already become a famous Enlightened Master.

When Song Qi had died in his previous life, Chen Yu had still been alive and defeated many strong enemies. He had also been on the brink of becoming a True Lord.

It went without saying that Chen Yu was a rare genius in the way of cultivation, and he had only been inferior to some monstrous geniuses.

What was key was that compared to those monstrous geniuses,True Lord Chen's personality was dignified and righteous. He was incredibly famous in many regions.

In his previous life, after finding out that Song Qi was still alive, he had personally visited him and apologized for not being able to save him. He had also helped him much and given him the Feather Scripture that he wrote himself.

This kindness was something that he could never forget.

Furthermore, Chen Yu had helped him much over the following years as well.

Such a person was the best card Song Qi could find for now.

The other geniuses were either incredibly arrogant and could easily turn against him or would not listen to him at all.

Only Chen Yu was a decent choice.

As long as he deepened his connection with him, based on his understanding of Chen Yu, perhaps he could bring him under his command, making him his trump card.

Thinking to there, Song Qi smiled, feeling quite amused.

In my previous life, it was you who passed to me a cultivation technique, allowing me to enter the path of cultivation. Now, it is reversed.

Looking at Chen Heng in the distance, he smiled and thought to himself.

Sometimes, fate was very amusing.

In this past life, it was Chen Yu who had begun his path to cultivation, but now, it was Song Qi who had given him a Foundation Technique before he had obtained any opportunities.

"You've woken up, Your Highness."

In the distance, Chen Heng turned and looked at Song Qi before saying, "Have some food before we set out."

"Alright," Song Qi nodded and did not say much else before he picked up some bread and began to eat.

The bread did not taste very good, but because the two of them were running for their lives, they had no complaints.

After eating some food, the two of them quickly covered up any traces of them being here before quickly departing.

Time slowly passed.

One month later, they had left this vast plains.

Ahead, there was a massive city.

The city had tall city walls, on which there were soldiers patrolling.

This city looked like a fort and seemed to have incredibly solid defenses.

"We've reached North Yuan City…"

Looking at the city in the distance, Chen Heng was quite surprised, "We were able to arrive so smoothly? This whole time they did not obstruct us at all. Even though we would occasionally encounter some bandits, we did not face any of the Northern Nine Bandits' people."

Ordinary bandits were not a threat to Chen Heng and Song Qi at all. Even though there would often be many of them, they were not a match for Chen Heng.

"It is indeed quite strange…" Song Qi also looked a bit confused.
