I Have A Trillion Protagonist Halos
Chapter 94: Unlocking A New Halo

Upon hearing Li Qingyang's words, both King Yang and the chief eunuch, as well as the neatly arranged palace maids who were there to welcome Li Qingyang, were dumbfounded.

Li Qingyang was the foremost expert in Clear Sun Kingdom, and in fact, the kingdom was even named "Clear Sun Kingdom" sixty years ago in honor of Li Qingyang's name. He was considered the embodiment of faith for the entire kingdom. Whether it was the king, or the commoners, everyone knew him. But now, Li Qingyang had actually slapped the king of Clear Sun Kingdom in front of everyone, all for the sake of someone from another country?

Moreover, if this person from another country were another formidable expert in the Fish-Dragon Realm, it would still be somewhat understandable. However, Su Zhan was merely at the Origin Elixir Realm!

The more King Yang thought about it, the more puzzled, resentful, and angry he became. After all, he was the king of Clear Sun Kingdom, and to be slapped in the face like this in front of everyone was a complete loss of face, becoming a laughingstock in the eyes of the world! If it weren't for his concerns about Li Qingyang's strength, he would have turned hostile on the spot.

"Elder Li! At the very least, I am the ruler of a nation! You—"

"The ruler of a nation?" Li Qingyang sneered. "In Clear Sun Kingdom, I decide who becomes the king. I chose you back then. Do you really think highly of yourself? Apologize to Lord Su immediately!"

"But—"

King Yang's temples throbbed, he took a deep breath, and then bowed to Su Zhan. "I apologize for my rudeness, Lord Su."

"No problem. Just take me to comprehend the Qingyang Sacred Scroll. I don't want to waste any more time," Su Zhan responded indifferently.

"This…" King Yang looked at Li Qingyang.

Li Qingyang replied, "Lord Su's intention is my intention. Whatever he asks you to do, you do it!"

"Yes!" Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0vᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

King Yang's heart trembled, and he lowered his head in compliance. When he looked up again at Su Zhan, there was already a hint of fear in his eyes.

"Lord Su, please follow me."

"Okay." Su Zhan nodded and followed behind King Yang.

Soon, they arrived at a heavily guarded forbidden area within the palace. They walked through several gates adorned with dense array inscriptions, ultimately reaching an open space.

It was a circular area with a diameter of several hundred meters. There was no covering above, but even with a slight mental probe, one could sense the powerful restrictions set in the sky. Inside this enclosed circular area, it was spacious. In the center, there was a stone platform resembling an altar, and in front of the stone platform, a gigantic painting measuring ten meters high was suspended in the air.

On the painting, there was nothing but a peculiar green-colored sun.

"Is this the Qingyang Sacred Scroll?" Su Zhan curiously looked at the painting, not sensing anything particularly special about it.

"Yes, the Qingyang Sacred Scroll was discovered by chance in this place. Later, a tranquilizing array was constructed around it, making this place a site for comprehension. Speaking of which, a significant reason why the Clear Sun Palace was built here is also because of the Qingyang Sacred Scroll. This item is the treasured possession of our Clear Sun Kingdom, hidden in the safest location within the kingdom," Li Qingyang explained. He seemed to recall something and sighed, "Back then, to obtain this Qingyang Sacred Scroll, it was…"

"Enough, no need to talk about past events. How do we use this Qingyang Sacred Scroll?" Su Zhan waved his hand to interrupt and asked directly.

"Simply stand on the stone platform and gaze at the Scroll. That will allow you to enter the world within the painting and commence your comprehension," Li Qingyang paused and continued, "Of course, entering the painting world requires time. For an ordinary genius, it takes about three months to enter the painting world, and then another three months to comprehend a wisp of Qingyang Devil Fire from within the painting. If one wishes to reach the realm of visualizing the emergence of the clear sun and the devil fire engulfing the heavens, it would take at least three years! Furthermore, this is just the initial stage of comprehension. As you delve deeper into the Qingyang Sacred Scroll, the devil fire you visualize becomes more powerful. It is said that after fully comprehending this sacred scroll, the Qingyang Devil Fire can directly burn an enemy's soul, killing them invisibly. It is extremely terrifying!"

"That impressive?" Su Zhan curiously asked, "Then how long have you been using it?"

"I have been comprehending the Qingyang Sacred Scroll for sixty years, and I have roughly comprehended seventy percent of the scroll. However, during these sixty years, it has greatly benefited my mental strength. Talking about mental strength, I dare say that in the entire eastern region if I claim to rank second, one dares claim to be the first," Li Qingyang spoke and then added with a hint of frustration, recalling the scene of Su Zhan appearing while unaffected by his technique, "Of course, this does not include you, Lord Su!"

"Me?" Su Zhan shook his head and smiled. "My mental strength is weak. I haven't specifically cultivated it."

Your mental strength is weak? Haha! Weak to the point that you are immune to my techniques? Li Qingyang sneered inwardly and said, "Lord Su is being modest."

"I'm telling the truth. Well, let's not dwell on that. Let me try to comprehend this Qingyang Sacred Scroll and see how difficult it is!" Su Zhan said as he walked towards the stone platform.

"Elder Li, this Su Zhan…"

"Don't ask too much," Li Qingyang glanced at King Yang and then looked at Su Zhan walking towards the stone platform. "What do you think? How long will it take for Lord Su to enter the painting world?"

"Even if Lord Su has unparalleled talent, maybe one month?" King Yang hesitated and continued, "After all, even Elder Li took a month back then. Although this Su Zhan has extraordinary talent in martial arts, his mental strength talent cannot surpass yours, Elder Li."

"It's hard to say," Li Qingyang recalled his battle with Su Zhan. "His mental strength is extremely strong, or perhaps his soul is special. He has an unwavering disposition. If my estimation is correct, he will be able to enter the painting world within ten days!"

"Ten days! How is that possible!" King Yang exclaimed, filled with disbelief.

"Ah! How could I have known about such a freakish person in the world before I went to the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect?" Li Qingyang sighed and waved his hand. "Alright, let's not disturb Lord Su any longer. Let's go!"

"Yes!"

The two of them turned and left.

Just at that moment, as Su Zhan concentrated on comprehending the Qingyang Sacred Scroll, a system voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

Sure enough, it arrived.

Su Zhan smiled inwardly. He had wondered if he would unlock some halo related to this aspect, and now it seemed that his system was indeed useful.

Mental Strength Halo, activate!

Suddenly, Su Zhan felt a clear-headedness and an enhanced perception of his surroundings. His eyes focused on the painting scroll before him.

Three seconds later, he entered the picture world!
