After leaving the imperial court, Jiang Chen found himself breaking out in a cold sweat.
Don’t blame him for not being human, just blame the empress for being too charming!
Almost!
He almost fell in the gentle countryside.
Although if he really stayed in Tianyuan Hall tonight, Zhou Yunxi might still respect his choice and let him leave the Zhou Dynasty and go out for a while.
But it's impossible for him to leave as simply as he does now.
Facing the domineering and beautiful Empress Tianyuan, Jiang Chen swore that he almost couldn't stand it.
Fortunately, reason defeated the devil.
Guys, impulse is the devil!
"But Empress Tianyuan seems to have become a little stronger. Although this level of power cannot cause any harm to me, she was just an ordinary person before she came to the throne. She only relied on high-level innate magic weapons to be able to exert her strength to rival Xiaoyao Realm.
.”
"But now she has quietly practiced to the level of a martial arts master. And if the fate of the country continues to baptize her body, she may not be able to step into the ranks of martial arts grand masters in the future."
"If a great master of martial arts maintains a good health, it will not be a problem to live for about two hundred years. Empress Tianyuan once ate the beauty fruit. It is estimated that even if we meet again one or two hundred years later, she will still be beautiful."
"It's just that what I don't understand is why she could use the Great Zhou Dynasty to baptize her body?"
"The kings of the Great Zhou Dynasty, whether they were the Founding Patriarch or the Zhongxing Emperor Wu, the two of them made greater contributions to the Great Zhou than Empress Tianyuan."
"Even so, they can only be protected by the Great Zhou Dynasty and can be protected from evil. Anyone who dares to kill them will be counterattacked by the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"But because of this, they were entangled by luck and were unable to live forever. Occasionally they met a few emperors with good martial arts qualifications, but they only cultivated to the realm of martial arts masters. No one has ever cultivated to the level of a martial arts grandmaster."
"Those who are haunted by luck cannot live forever. This is a nightmare that all emperors in the world of immortals cannot escape. Even the imperial dynasty, even the supreme dynasty, cannot escape this nightmare."
"But Empress Tianyuan can use luck to baptize herself and transform herself. This is really a surprising thing."
"Perhaps she had some great adventure, but I don't know what it was."
Jiang Chen thought in his heart.
Everyone has no secrets in their heart. Just like him, he is also a cheat player, so he doesn't care whether other people have any secrets, and he won't get to the bottom of other people's secrets.
In fact, for Jiang Chen, Empress Tianyuan is quite good.
The stronger Empress Tianyuan is, the longer she lives, and the longer she reigns, the more stable the Great Zhou Dynasty will be, and the more stable her disciples, relatives and friends will be able to live in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Especially Qingye, Changli, Changyao, Changming, Zhou Motong and others have great potential. They only need to be given more than ten years or decades to shine.
During this period of time, the ruler of the Great Zhou Dynasty was still Empress Tianyuan, which was indeed a matter of joy.
As the saying goes, one emperor has one courtier. If Empress Tianyuan dies, whether she leaves an heir to succeed her or chooses a prince from the Zhou royal family, her previous decrees will inevitably be negated in the future.
Moreover, once the emperor and his courtiers changed their owners, it was unclear whether such privileged institutions as the Chunyang Dao Palace, Zhenwu Department, and Secret Investigation Department could still exist.
Therefore, in the long run, Empress Tianyuan is strong, lives a long time, and reigns for a long time, which is in line with Jiang Chen's long-term interests.
After leaving the imperial court, Jiang Chen did not choose to return to Chunyang Dao Palace. He planned to leave directly without disturbing anyone, coming quietly and leaving quietly without making a big fanfare.
Jiang Chen took out the map of Xuanzhou that he had prepared long ago and prepared to go to Huangzhou. He wanted to find Pei Qingsi and then destroy Tianyinfang with her.
With his current strength, as long as Dao Lord does not come out, no one in the Xuanhuang Continent can be his opponent. Even if he encounters an invincible monk at the peak of Xiaoyao Realm, he can still calmly leave with the help of Five Elements Escape, Golden Light and other magical powers.
This is where Jiang Paopao’s confidence lies in his Xianxia world!
However, this map of Xuanzhou is not perfect. After all, the Zhou Dynasty is only a corner of Xuanzhou. Even if the area of the four major dynasties of Xuanzhou plus many dynasties combined, it is not as big as imagined.
A lot of land in Xuanzhou either belongs to several major dynasties, is the buffer zone of the dynasties, or is a large area of unclaimed wasteland.
It’s not that there are no people living in these wastelands, it’s just that many of these wastelands are mountains and hills, and rivers and lakes are connected together. Even if there is occasional good farmland, there are not many people who can support it.
Tribes of various sizes may be formed in such a place, but it is difficult to form a stable political power.
After all, although the world of Xianxia is a super plane, and some people even achieve enlightenment and become immortals, the people living at the bottom of society are still in a relatively backward agricultural civilization era.
In addition, the world of Xianxia is very large, so people do not need to risk going to mountains, hills or places with rivers, lakes and seas to farm.
Moreover, there is a huge potential threat in these places, which is a huge number of wild beasts and monsters!
In fact, it is located in a geomantic treasure land, and the dynasties and dynasties that developed farming civilization all wanted to open up wasteland. It can even be said that they have been doing so for generations.
However, the effect of land reclamation is not obvious and the speed is very slow, not only because of the backward farming equipment, but also because of the wild beasts and monsters.
In fact, many people have misunderstood a concept. People think that monsters eat people, so they especially yearn for places with large populations.
However, where there are many people, there are also many warriors and monks, and the possibility of monsters dying is very high.
However, many monsters do not evolve from poultry and livestock. They come from natural beasts that absorb the aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and slowly develop their spiritual wisdom.
And most of them come from inaccessible places such as mountains, hills, grasslands, jungles, rivers, lakes and seas.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! These places are their homes, and few monsters choose to leave their homes and go to cities where humans gather.
Now humans want to open up wasteland, plant crops around the rivers, lakes and seas, and on the gentle slopes of mountains and hills, and destroy the homes where they have lived for generations. How could they not risk their lives with humans?
Therefore, the kings of the past dynasties would rather conquer the human kingdom and expand its territory than open up wasteland and face the seemingly endless beasts and monsters!
Jiang Chen had a general understanding of Xuanzhou's dynasties and dynasties, and when he was cultivating in the Great Zhou Dynasty, he occasionally went to other places to look around. Looking around, most places in Xuanzhou were actually similar.
In addition, he now wants to go to Huangzhou as soon as possible, so he has no intention of wandering around step by step and slowly comprehending the world of mortals.
So he directly used his magical power on land to control the golden light of the land, and soon arrived at the junction of Xuanzhou and Huangzhou, Demon Ridge.
Huangzhou is located in the northeast of Xuanzhou. The two are separated by Demon Ridge, and the road has since become a natural chasm!
Demon Ridge has many names, such as Duanjie Mountain, Liangjie Mountain, Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, etc.
As soon as Demon Ridge heard the name, he knew that this was not a good place. There must be demons everywhere in it, and they were extremely powerful.
Demon Ridge runs from northwest to southeast, lying between Xuanzhou and Huangzhou, almost cutting off the communication between the two continents.
Even if monks from the Happy Realm form a team to cross the Demon Ridge, they may not be able to reach the other side alive.
Demon Ridge is a very special domain. Beasts are particularly easy to demonize and become monsters when they stay here. Therefore, this place has become a holy place in the minds of demons in Xuanhuang Continent.
Many great monsters are cultivating here, including many monster kings who are comparable to Xiaoyao Realm. Moreover, monsters are naturally stronger than humans. If they master a few more bloodline inheritance divine passage methods, they will be like a combination of warriors and monks. They are powerful.
extraordinary!
However, monsters also have weaknesses, that is, they are not naturally good at cultivating their souls. Therefore, many great monsters have flaws in their souls, which resulted in them being trapped and killed under the Tao Lord.
There are only a handful of demon clans that can make up for the flaws in their soul and become Tao Lords.
The human race is born with a great appreciation for Qi training and Yuan Shen, but is born with a weak physical body. This is also an indisputable fact.
If you don't practice the magical power of body refining, human monks at the same level will definitely not be able to compare to demon monks in the physical body. This is a racial limitation and is innate.
Moreover, the Monster Clan is not a complete ethnic group. It is also divided into countless branches internally, and the innate physiques between the Monster Clan and the Monster Clan are also very different.
"After passing the Demon Ridge, we have officially entered the realm of Huangzhou. I don't know what level Pei Qingsi has reached in cultivation now!"
"She was the one with the lowest level of cultivation when our trio was on the road to trial. Now I don't know if she has entered the realm of freedom!"
"If you break through and become the Xiaoyao Realm, even if you can't kill the leader of Tianyinfang, at least you will have a certain ability to protect yourself."
Jiang Chen thought in his heart, and then the aura on his body changed, becoming demonic and demonic, and he used the Supreme Breath Masking Technique to slightly cover up the demonic aura on his body.
It’s quite a bit of a cover-up!
"Ah wu~~~"
Jiang Chen heard the howling of wolves as soon as he stepped into Demon Ridge. He looked up and saw a huge, tiger-like wolf standing on the top of a mountain not far away, looking at him.
With a thought in his mind, he turned into a stream of light and came to the giant wolf in an instant, then showed a faint smile and said:
"Do you want to attack me?"
There was a hint of fear in the giant wolf's eyes, and then he knelt down in front of Jiang Chen.
"Go for it!"
Jiang Chen waved his hand, and the giant wolf crawled back, retreated a certain distance, then turned around and fled.
"An ordinary wild wolf can now absorb the vitality of heaven and earth on its own. I believe that it will be completely demonized and turn into a wolf demon in the near future."
"Looking at its bone age, it's only five years. It takes five years for an ordinary wild wolf to start its path to demonization. There must be some secret in this Demon Ridge!"
"This may be the fundamental reason why many great demons from the Xuanhuang Continent are entrenched here, but even if there are any heavenly materials, earthly treasures, supreme inheritance and the like in this Demon Ridge, they should be suitable for the demon clan."
"Not to mention whether I can rob these demon kings, even if I do find them and grab them, they probably won't be of much use to me!"
"If I have the chance, I would like to use the Six Paths of Heavenly Demon Eyes to search the Demon Ridge carefully. There may be unexpected gains, but now we have to hurry up!"
Jiang Chen thought about it in his mind and decided to hurry up and hurry up to avoid unnecessary complications.
It wasn't because he was afraid of the Demon King of Demon Ridge, but because he was afraid of stirring up a hornet's nest.
He is not afraid of one demon king, nor is he afraid of ten or eight, but what if there are dozens or even hundreds of them?
The demon clan is very ferocious, and internal battles are very cruel, but if there are outsiders who oppose them, then they will be surprisingly united!
So Jiang Chen didn't want to have any conflict with them, so he changed his aura into that of the Great Demon King, and used the Supreme Breath Masking Technique to cover it up.
In this way, ordinary little demons cannot see his depth, but the big demon king knows that he is definitely not an easy person, so he does not dare to provoke him easily.
"friend!"
"You stepped into my territory with your left foot first, so you must die!"
A voice came from the tree. Jiang Chen looked up and saw a burly black monkey. If it weren't for his long tail, Jiang Chen would have thought he was a black bear.
He was leaning on the tree trunk, with his back to Jiang Chen, looking very mysterious.
"You, little monster monkey, dare to block my way. Do you want to die?"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but sneer as he looked at the monkey on the tree that was showing off.
This black-haired monkey is considered good among monsters, but at best he is just a little monster king. He cannot be compared with the big monster king who is comparable to Xiaoyao Realm. Compared with him, it is even more different!
"hey-hey!"
"what are you talking about?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The strong man of the human race!"
The black-haired monkey suddenly turned its head, almost startling Jiang Chen, because the monkey turned out to be a ghost-faced black-haired monkey.
A face that looks like a human, but is as ugly as a ghost. Even if you see it in broad daylight, it is very scary!
"How do you know I'm human?"
Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes and burst out with murderous intent.
"Because my natural talent is mind reading, I can hear a person's inner thoughts, but I can only hear the voices of those who are lower than me."
"I can't see through or hear your heart, which proves that your strength is far greater than mine. Although I can't hear your inner thoughts, I can hear that your heartbeat does not belong to the demon race!"
The ghost-faced monkey demon said with great certainty.
This surprised Jiang Chen. Although he changed his aura, he did not change his inside and outside, nor did he change into the appearance of a certain demon tribe using the art of body-changing.
Originally, he thought that by doing this, he would be able to get through, but he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the Demon Ridge, a little ghost-faced demon monkey taught him a lesson!
"Since you know my identity and know that my strength is far greater than yours, you still dare to threaten to kill me. Are you just seeking death?"
Jiang Chen looked at the ghost-faced demon monkey and said in a deep voice.
"Please sir, accept me as your disciple!"
The ghost-faced demon monkey jumped down from the tree and knelt down directly in front of Jiang Chen.
"You want to be my apprentice, but you are not qualified, and I don't like to accept aliens as apprentices!"
Jiang Chen frowned and refused without thinking.
"good!"
"Since you don't want to accept me as your disciple, then help me avenge myself, kill the Black Sky Demon King, and avenge my parents and relatives. If not, I will spread your identity as a human being!"
"At that time, even if Mr. has the ability to reach the sky with his hands and eyes, he will definitely not be able to walk out of this Demon Ridge alive!"
The ghost-faced demon monkey changed the topic and showed a look of looking forward to death.
"Are you threatening me?"
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice after hearing this.
"The little demon doesn't dare. The little demon just wants to avenge his family!"
"Please sir, please do it. After it is done, the little demon is willing to die to apologize!"
"The little demon is here to kowtow to Sir!"
The ghost-faced demon monkey couldn't help but kowtow to Jiang Chen.
"All right!"
"Since you sincerely beg me, then I will grant your request. Please tell me about the demon king Krishna in your mouth!"
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice with a cold face.
"Yes, sir!"
The ghost-faced demon monkey was overjoyed when he heard this, and then stood up, only to see a flash of sword light coming towards him. Before he could react, he was split in half by the power of the sword light. His body and soul were destroyed, and he could no longer die!
"The little demon monkey actually dares to threaten me, and you really think I'm a fool. You are an alien among the human-faced monkeys. You must have been abandoned by your tribe since you were born. Where did you get your parents and relatives?"
"That Black Sky Demon King you are talking about must be your mortal enemy. You want to kill someone with a borrowed knife, so lend me my hand to kill him!"
"I have to say, your wishful thinking was so loud that I heard the sound of your abacus from eight hundred miles away!"
Jiang Chen glanced at the corpse of the ghost-faced demon monkey with disdain, then waved his sleeves, and the real sun fire emerged, directly burning the ghost-faced demon monkey into a pile of fly ash. The breeze blew gently, and it completely dissipated in the mountain forest.
middle!
However, the Ghost Face Monkey also reminded him that the shape-shifting technique that he thought was enough to fool these demon ridge demons might not be enough. He needed to find a specific reference object to transform into the opponent's appearance.
This is more in line with your own personality!
Moreover, his human appearance is indeed eye-catching in the Demon Ridge where demons are everywhere. After all, many demons don't like to look like humans.
Although the Great Way is said to be in human form, demons must transform into human form to more easily understand the Great Way and practice magical powers.
But many demons would rather turn into human bodies and demon heads, or retain some demon characteristics, rather than completely transform into human form!
"Then who will it become?"
"Zhou Motong? No, how can I, a seven-foot tall man, turn into a woman?"
"Heilin? No, this guy is too wretched and has fallen too low!"
"Ghost-faced demon monkey? Still not possible. This guy must have many enemies. He has also offended the Black Sky Demon King. If I really meet the Black Sky Demon King, if I am chased by him and lose my status, I will slap him.
If you shoot him to death, your secret will be completely exposed!"
"gone!"
"Last time at the Spring and Autumn Arsenal, I turned into the second master and deceived many martial arts masters under the pseudonym Yang Jin. Now I have become Brother Monkey and deceived the monsters in this Demon Ridge!"
"And Brother Monkey is also a monkey, so I will follow the internal changes of this ghost-faced demon monkey, and the appearance will be the Monkey King, so they shouldn't be able to find anything!"
Jiang Chen had an idea and suddenly transformed into the Monkey King wearing a purple gold crown with phoenix wings on his head, golden armor with chainmail, walking on lotus root silk, and holding a wishful golden hoop in his hand.
