The bloody skull was dozens of meters long, its fangs were as sharp as spears, and its eye sockets were burning with will-o'-the-wisps.
If so, if I were still alive, how big would my body be?
What kind of existence is it?
Zhang Ruochen did not chase after him rashly, not to mention that he was seriously injured now. Even if he was not injured, a confrontation with the bloody skull would probably be a dangerous thing.
There was a heavy look on the face of the Holy Book Talented Girl, and she said: "That skull is most likely the Blood Demon back then."? "The Blood Demon?"
Zhang Ruochen felt that it was quite familiar. Not only did King Xianlan call out its name before, but he seemed to have heard it in other places.
The bloody skull flew farther and farther, and was already hundreds of miles away. With the eyesight of Zhang Ruochen and the Holy Script Girl, they could only see the shape of a small ball, like a dark red star in the darkness.
The surrounding space became cold again.
It was only at this moment that Zhang Ruochen discovered that the corpse of King Xianlan lying on the ground was actually quite shriveled, with all the blood and energy in the body drained out, leaving only a dark brown mummy.
The Holy Book Talent also glanced at King Xianlan's body and continued: "About a thousand years ago, the Blood Demon was the leader of the Demon Heaven Tribe of the Immortal Blood Tribe. He once competed with the Blood Queen for the title of the emperor of the ten major tribes of the Immortal Blood Tribe.
position."
Zhang Ruochen immediately remembered it after the Holy Book Talented Girl mentioned it.
Eight hundred years ago, he did hear his father and Emperor Qing mention the name of the Blood Demon. It seemed that the two of them also had some interactions with the Blood Demon when they were young.
However, Zhang Ruochen was too young at the time and did not remember very clearly. Moreover, he did not deliberately look up historical materials about the Blood Demon, so naturally he knew very little.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Eight hundred years ago, the Nine Emperors and Three Queens stood side by side. They were the twelve most powerful people of that era. Among them, the Blood Queen must be in the top three. Only the oldest Tao Emperor and Martial Emperor can compete with them.
She competes with her, and the Sword Emperor Xue Hongchen who later grew up may also be able to compete with her. What kind of virtue does the Blood Demon have and how can he compete with the Blood Queen for the throne of emperor?"
The Holy Book Talented Girl shook her head and said: "Actually, according to records in many ancient books, the blood demon has always had the upper hand in the battle between the blood demon and the blood? If there were no accidents that happened later, the blood demon should be the undead vampire.
The Emperor."
"How is that possible?" Zhang Ruochen didn't believe it.
You must know that the Blood Queen at her peak defeated the combined efforts of Emperor Ming and Emperor Qing. Even the Tao Emperor, who was originally known as the best in the world, may not be able to do this.
"It is what it is."
The Holy Book Talented Girl added: "The Blood Demon is indeed an unparalleled genius. At that time, it caused panic. Many people were worried that once he grew up, he would become the second Hades. You should know that one of the six wonders of the Kunlun Realm is
"The Demonic Stone Carvings"?"
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said: "There are thirty-six carvings in the "Stone Carvings of the Heavenly Demon". It is said that they were left by a great god in ancient times and contain thirty-six supreme magic techniques. If an ordinary monk can master one of them,
A few carvings and some achievements in practice are enough to become the top master in the world."
The Holy Book Talented Girl said: "The Blood Demon practiced nine Heavenly Demon stone carvings at the same time, and based on the nine stone carvings, he created nine kinds of holy arts that can be passed down to the world."
Zhang Ruochen took a breath of cold air, unable to calm down, and said: "This is too amazing. No one has ever been able to practice nine Heavenly Demon Stone carvings at the same time. It is also quite rare for monks to practice two carvings at the same time."
Even the young master of the Black Market First Grade Hall, Di Yi, was an unparalleled genius, but he only practiced one of the stone carvings.
Because if you practice a stone carving to the extreme, you can become a great saint.
"The Blood Demon was indeed quite terrifying when he was young. His qualifications were so high that even the Blood Queen was under great pressure." said the talented woman with the holy book.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Since the blood demon is so powerful, why did he die? Instead, the blood queen became the master of the ten major tribes of the undead blood clan?"
The Holy Book Talented Girl sighed lightly and said: "I don't know exactly what happened back then. However, there are some rumors. It is said that a big figure among humans intervened and joined forces with the Blood Queen to get rid of the Blood Demon.
In the end, the Blood Demon did not become a great saint, otherwise the fate of the human race in the Kunlun Realm would be unimaginable."
Zhang Ruochen was still a little puzzled and said: "Since the big shot stepped in and could get rid of the blood, why didn't he get rid of the blood queen as well? What if he killed the blood queen before she grew up?
Wouldn’t it save a lot of trouble?”
"I don't know. After all, those are just rumors. It's hard to tell whether they are true or not."
The Holy Book Talent continued: "Originally, everyone thought that the dead Blood Demon still had a head left? It is very possible that the Blood Demon was not completely dead at all."
Zhang Ruochen fell into silence, staring at the shriveled body of King Xianlan on the ground, feeling a chill.
Did the holy soul of the Xianlan King take the initiative to fly into the bloody skull?
Or was there a force inside the bloody skull that absorbed his holy soul and blood?
If it's the former, of course it's best.
After all, even if King Xianlan controls the head of the Blood Demon, he may not be able to cause much trouble.
If it's the latter, that's a pretty scary thing.
This means that a thousand years ago, the Blood Demon did not completely die. At least one head was preserved and has been hidden in the body of King Xianlan.
"boom!"
In the distance, more than a thousand miles away, there was an ear-splitting sound.
Immediately afterwards, a blood-red beam of light rose into the sky, tearing through the darkness and penetrating the earth and sky.
Zhang Ruochen was secretly startled, and immediately used his physical skills, stepped on the cliff, rushed to a height of a hundred feet, and looked into the distance.
There was another blood-red light, which reflected hundreds of miles around in dark red, making it look extremely strange.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen saw a dark red spot in the center of the strange light.
That is……
That was the bloody skull that flew away earlier.
Could it be that it was the one that re-induced the blood-red strange light?
More than a thousand miles away, the bloody skull released a massive amount of blood mist, which circled around the light for several times before finally rushing into the ravine.
Gradually, the blood-red light retreated into the ravine, and the whole world turned into darkness again.
Zhang Ruochen returned to the ground and told the talented woman of the holy book what he had observed.
The Holy Book Talented Girl thought carefully, her expression became more and more serious, and said: "If so, I guessed correctly, it is very likely that the blood demon really came to life. He should have felt the remaining blood after the blood, so
, and then immediately flew over."
"It's not impossible." Zhang Ruochen said.
The talented woman with a holy book frowned lightly and said solemnly: "This matter has exceeded the scope of our ability. We can't go there anymore. There are probably quite terrifying things there. If we try to explore it forcefully, we will definitely lose our lives."
Just a blood demon is no longer something that the Holy Book Talent and Zhang Ruochen can handle. If they encounter other dangers again, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Whether it is the secret of the Endless Abyss or the appearance of the Blood Demon, it is of great importance. I will immediately rush back to the Central Imperial City to report to the Queen and urge the court to clear up the hidden dangers here as soon as possible."
The talented scholar raised her head, stared at Zhang Ruochen, and said: "I will truthfully report to the Queen what you have done for the court. In addition, the stone talisman you brought back from the underworld last time sealed the Kunlun world and the underworld.
Passage to prevent the undead from continuing to enter the Kunlun Realm. Together, these achievements can be offset by no matter how serious crimes you have committed in the past."
A cold look appeared on Zhang Ruochen's face, and he said: "I have never done anything for the court, I am just doing what I think is right. You'd better not tell her about my things. Even if I do something right, do
There is no need for her to judge whether something is wrong."
"Zhang Ruochen."
The talented lady of the Holy Book shouted, paused, and saw Zhang Ruochen's very tough look, her tone became softer, and said: "Do you want to be hunted by the court all the time, to be a sinner, you can only hide your name, and be anywhere at any time?
On the verge of death, never being able to reunite with your family? Is this what you want? Who are you? Is it Lin Yue, Zhang Ruochen, or your current identity in the Blood God Religion? Don’t you want to be aboveboard?
Alive?"
Zhang Ruochen's eyes were a little blurry, and he muttered in a low voice: "I really want to..."
However, the sharp color in his eyes soon returned, like a stone statue without any emotion, he shook his head and said: "You'd better not care about this matter, you can't care about it!"
After saying this, he left resolutely.
The talented lady with a holy book stretched out her hand to pull Zhang Ruochen back. However, Zhang Ruochen seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes were bloodshot, and he swung his hand and pushed her away.
The talented lady with the holy book fell to the ground, coughing continuously, and blood flowed from her mouth. Her face was as pale as paper. Hearing the cough, Zhang Ruochen seemed to wake up and realized that the talented lady with the holy book was seriously injured. After all,
, her body is no different from that of a weaker ordinary woman.
"Sorry, just now..."
Zhang Ruochen helped her up and wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to explain.
The talented lady of the holy book shook her head gently, with a trace of sadness hidden in her eyes, and said: "Everyone has their own choice. You can refuse my kindness to you, but I can also insist on what I want to do. Even if, I
I really can't control this matter, at least I have tried my best and have no regrets."
Zhang Ruochen had a complicated expression on his face and said, "I'm worried that I will implicate you and eventually harm you."
"I said, I have no regrets."
The talented scholar's eyes were fixed on Zhang Ruochen, very firmly.
Zhang Ruochen stared at the talented woman with a holy book, and clearly saw something in her eyes that should not be a friend.
For some reason, Zhang Ruochen was a little flustered. He immediately looked away, not daring to look at her, and said, "Let's leave the first gradient and return to the ground. Let's not talk about other things for now!"
