Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi took a step forward, and the magnificent and sacred palace complex appeared in front of them again.
Inciting the power of the twelve Buddha Emperor beads, and restraining their aura, Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi walked carefully into the purple gold gate. Immediately, a flow of air more mysterious than the holy energy of heaven and earth surged from the depths of the palace.
The air flow was purple-green, with bright light spots floating in it.
Every point of light is a rule of the holy way. When it touches the skin of Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi, it immediately blends into their bodies.
"It's too exaggerated! In just a few breaths, the number of Holy Path rules in my body increased by sixteen." Mu Lingxi was both happy and a little worried.
It's too easy to improve one's cultivation. Just touch a spot of light and a rule of the holy path will be automatically generated in the body.
How could anything be so simple in the world?
"What are these air currents? How are the regular light spots of the Holy Path condensed? If this is really a cultivation treasure land more mysterious than the Temple of Truth, I am afraid it has been used long ago. How could it still be deserted now?
."
Zhang Ruochen held the heavy sword in his hand, remained vigilant, and cautiously moved forward in the direction of the purple-green air flow.
"Look, who is that?"
Mu Lingxi's eyes were fixed on an ancient holy tree more than twenty feet away.
Even a dozen people might not be able to hug the gray-brown tree trunk. The roots hanging down from the trunk are thicker than pillars. There are many branches and lush green leaves, and every leaf is breathing.
What it absorbs is the purple-green air flow and the regular light spots of the Holy Path, but what it spits out is the ordinary Holy Qi of heaven and earth.
On the tree, there are several purple-green holy fruits, shaped like pears. The surface of the holy fruits is sparkling, as if there are thousands of regular light spots of the holy path contained inside.
You don't need to guess to know that those purple-green holy fruits must be priceless treasures. Once swallowed, your cultivation level will be improved by unknown amounts.
However, Mu Lingxi's attention was not on the purple-green holy fruits, but on the three corpses nailed to the tree trunks.
They are a creature with a lion's head and silver eyes, a half-orc with seven tails, and a creature with a bird's head and nine-colored wings on its back. They were all pierced by a sacred bone spear.
, the wound is still dripping with holy blood, and every drop of holy blood contains huge energy, indicating that they must have been powerful holy kings when they were alive.
"They were probably the Saint King Realm experts from the Heaven Realm faction who died not long ago. They wanted to pick the Purple Green Sacred Fruit from the Ancient Sacred Tree, but were killed instead. Who killed them?" Zhang Ruochen felt his scalp numb.
The three crucified creatures were obviously not ordinary holy kings at first glance, and their combat power must have been extremely terrifying. However, they died together here, which was too horrible to watch.
Mu Lingxi felt a chill in her vest and asked, "Could it be those ancient carrion corpses that are chasing us?"
"Although those rotting corpses are powerful, it is not easy to kill these three creatures. There are probably more terrifying ancient evils here."
Zhang Ruochen released his mental power and space domain, and took out the Emperor Yi Bone Staff.
The evil spirits in the Emperor Yi's bone staff have swallowed up all the holy souls of the evil monks in the Yin and Yang Palace. Now, as long as they don't encounter a strong person above the Seven-Step Saint King, they can completely compete with them. It is the most important weapon in Zhang Ruochen's hands.
A trump card.
Even the Emperor Yi's bone staff was taken out. One can imagine how great the pressure was in Zhang Ruochen's heart.
If he hadn't been looking for Xiang Chunan, Zhang Ruochen would have definitely left this place immediately. It was too dangerous and he couldn't break into it with his current level of cultivation.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ruochen took out three more killer puppets and guarded them in three directions between him and Mu Lingxi. After doing all this, he felt a little safer.
The ancient holy tree bearing the purple-green holy fruit is not far away. It would be a lie to say that Zhang Ruochen is not moved.
Mu Lingxi grabbed Zhang Ruochen's wrist, shook his head at him, and said, "The deaths of those three powerful holy kings were too weird, so don't take any chances."
"I am measured."
Zhang Ruochen did not go to pick the purple green holy fruit in person, but sent out a killer puppet whose strength was comparable to the three-step holy king.
The killer puppet was wearing silver armor, only one meter tall, holding two swords, and was as fast as a silver lightning. In an instant, it reached the bottom of the ancient holy tree.
Its legs bent a bit, and it was about to rush up to the sacred tree.
"Chi!"
A sacred bone spear flew out from a cloud of purple-green mist in the corner of the palace, erupting with a thundering sound that shook the earth.
Just the sound of breaking wind made Zhang Ruochen's ears bleed, his head hurt violently, his vision went black, his body was shaky, and his legs almost gave out and he almost fell to the ground.
"Bang."
There was a sound of shattering metal.
The killer puppet with a hard body was penetrated by the holy bone spear and nailed to the trunk of the ancient holy tree. The metal body almost fell apart and was completely scrapped.
Mu Lingxi fell limply beside Zhang Ruochen, bleeding from all her orifices, and suffered serious injuries.
Zhang Ruochen used the heavy sword to support his body and gradually recovered. He quickly checked his body and found that a large number of cracks had been created in the internal organs of the body, and the meridians and holy veins were also in pain.
"What kind of ancient evil thing is it? Just the sound waves and energy released from throwing the bone spear caused me to be extremely seriously injured."
Zhang Ruochen couldn't imagine what would happen if that bone spear flew towards him just now?
Mu Lingxi was seriously injured, and the holy energy in her body was in chaos. Zhang Ruochen fed her a healing holy pill, and then immediately picked her up and was about to help her refine the holy pill.
In the corner of the palace, within the purple-green mist, a heavy footsteps sounded.
The footsteps were very light, but when the sound came over, it caused the ground to shake slightly. With Zhang Ruochen's level of cultivation, he was unable to stand firm.
Moreover, Zhang Ruochen's internal organs were in severe pain, as if they were about to be shattered by that force.
Half a corpse walked out of the purple-green mist.
Its body was cut off by an unknown sharp blade, leaving only two legs, one right hand, no head, and no left half of its body.
However, just this half corpse caused huge pressure on Zhang Ruochen. His heart contracted, his body became numb, and he could not move.
The whole body of the half corpse was emitting bright white holy light. There was no trace of decay in the body. The holy power that erupted was many times more powerful than Zhang Ruochen. I am afraid that he could be killed by just moving a finger.
However, the Emperor Buddha beads on Zhang Ruochen worked their magic, completely hiding his aura, and the half corpse seemed unable to detect him at all.
"It has no eyes and can't see me." Zhang Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately afterwards, something even weirder happened in front of Zhang Ruochen.
Under the ancient holy tree, rotten corpses appeared out of thin air. At first there were only a dozen, then dozens, then hundreds... Their eyes were burning with cyan flames, and their bodies exuded ancient Yin Qi.
One of the rotting corpses spotted Zhang Ruochen, staring at him with blue flaming eyes, and let out a roar.
Zhang Ruochen was about to hug Mu Lingxi and escape from this place, but he saw dozens of rotting corpses standing at the exit. Each one had a powerful aura, comparable to that of a holy king, and it was impossible to rush through.
The half of the corpse, which had no trace of decay, also noticed Zhang Ruochen's aura, moved its steps, and faced him.
"Brother Ruochen, over here, at the Taoist temple in the southeast corner, they don't dare to come in." Xiang Chunan's voice came from the southeast.
Without thinking, Zhang Ruochen immediately rushed over as fast as he could, chasing a sacred bone spear behind him, and it was about to hit him in the back.
Zhang Ruochen knocked open the door of the Taoist temple and stepped in.
"Boom."
The sacred bone spear flew to the gate of the Taoist temple. A purple brilliance immediately emerged from the Taoist temple, blocking it. It was not until the power on the sacred bone spear completely disappeared that it fell to the ground with a clang.
"call."
Zhang Ruochen took a long breath and looked back.
I saw a large number of rotting corpses surrounding the Taoist temple, roaring constantly, but they did not dare to break in, as if they were afraid of something. Including the half corpse was no exception.
Xiang Chunan came up with a big hammer and sighed: "Brother Ruochen, why did you come to this murderous place?"
"If I didn't come to find you, how could I leave alone?" Zhang Ruochen said.
"Good brother, so loyal. Haha!"
Xiang Chunan patted Zhang Ruochen on the shoulder, and then said apologetically: "Brother, I was busy cleaning up those guys just now, and I didn't know you were here. Otherwise, I would have reminded you early in the morning, and I wouldn't have brought those guys back."
Half an ancient great sage is provoked by a vicious creature."
Zhang Ruochen had long guessed that the half corpse must be an ancient great sage, so he was not surprised.
Under the leadership of Xiang Chunan, Zhang Ruochen held Mu Lingxi and walked into the depths of the Taoist temple. He saw five holy kings with profound cultivation suppressed under a demonic black metal crown.
The cultivation levels of the five Holy Kings are not weak, the lowest is the level of the Three-step Holy King, and two of them have reached the Fourth-step Holy King level.
However, the metal crown pressed them hard. They blushed and tried their best to hold it up and avoid being suffocated to death.
Xiang Chunan was a little annoyed and said: "I don't know where these guys came from. They wanted to kill me as soon as they met. Fortunately, I took out Master's iron hat in time and restrained them."
.However, there are two guys who are very powerful and escaped early. One has two pairs of scarlet wings on his back, and the other looks a little funny and has no face."
Xiang Chunan said it very casually, but the ears of the five holy kings under the black metal crown were quite angry. Is this an iron hat? It is clearly a supreme holy instrument.
Among the five holy kings, there is a female holy king of the angel tribe who has reached the peak of the third-step holy king. She has an extremely beautiful face, exquisite facial features, and crystal-white skin. She can be said to be the most beautiful girl in the country.
She held a holy bead in both hands to resist the powerful holy instrument above her head, which had a strong evil spirit. Her delicate body was trembling, and she performed a kind of charm. She said in a soft voice: "There must be a misunderstanding between us.
, please put away this magic crown first and give us a chance to explain."
This female holy king is very confident in her beauty, coupled with her profound attainments in the art of charm, she is confident that she can win over this black fool in front of her who may have never even touched a woman's hand.
"Snapped!"
Xiang Chunan showed no mercy at all, and slapped the female saint king, causing her to vomit blood from her mouth: "I misunderstood your uncle, am I stupid to think you are your uncle Xiang? It doesn't matter that I am ugly, but you still wink at me.
Do you want to disgust me to death? Oops, the more you look at her, she’s getting uglier and I can’t stand it anymore. Brother, why don’t you take care of her?"
The female Holy King of the Angel Tribe was so angry that her face turned blue, her chest was heaving violently, and she felt that she had suffered the greatest humiliation since her birth.
