With his mind spinning, Xue Chen reached out and picked up the wine bottle on the table. While pouring the wine, he said: "When you come to Xutian Tower, you must try this 'Red Dust Drunk'. This wine is in limited supply, but most people have no chance to taste it.
."
"Would you like a drink?"
Pour it into a cup and it will turn bright red in color, just like blood, exuding a rich aroma of wine that is refreshing.
Just one whiff will give you a feeling of intoxication.
Zhang Ruochen put his eyes into the cup, and a strange light flashed in his eyes without any trace. With his eyesight, he could not see that the blood of living beings was clearly added to the "Red Dust Drunk".
Involuntarily, Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly.
Xue Ningxiao chuckled: "Wine is indeed brewed with blood, but it is not human blood. My father was born from my grandfather and a human woman. My brother and I also have some human blood in our bodies. Therefore, we never drink it.
Human blood will not be contaminated with any human blood products."
Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't expect that among the wives married by the Blood Jue God of War, there was actually a human race.
Perhaps it is because Xue Ningxiao and Xuechen have lived in the hell world since they were young and have been assimilated by the great power of the big world. If you don't examine them carefully, you can hardly feel the human aura in their bodies.
"No need to be surprised, our Xuejue family is very old. It is one of the oldest families in the Blood Sky tribe and even the entire Immortal Vampire Clan. There was a precedent of combining with the human race a long time ago. The Xuejue family is far more advanced than other blood tribes.
, more inclusive.”
"Even the Blood God of Kunlun Realm has a special relationship with our Xuejue family." Xue Ningxiao picked up the blood-stained Xiao, as if she was holding amber in her mouth, and took a sip.
Hearing these words, Zhang Ruochen was really surprised.
He is the leader of the Blood God Sect, but he never knew that the Blood God Patriarch was actually related to the Blood Jue family.
"About the Blood God, what exactly is going on?" Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but ask.
Xue Chen drank a glass of wine and said: "This matter involves too many things. If you really want to know, you can ask Aunt Fourteen. She should know the best about the Blood God."
In an instant, Zhang Ruochen thought of many things and fell into deep thought.
Since Xue Chen talked about the Blood Queen, perhaps, this matter has something to do with the Blood Queen's stay in the Endless Abyss for eight hundred years, and it may even include the secret of the Blood Beast.
Also, the secret behind how Qiu Yichi, Chi Linyuan and others transformed from humans into immortal vampires.
Is there some causal connection?
"If you don't talk about this, you should try it first. This wine is brewed with phoenix blood, and it tastes very good." Xue Ningxiao licked her lips gently, with colorful eyes in her eyes, encouraging Zhang Ruochen.
"Phoenix?"
Mu Lingxi's figure instantly appeared in Zhang Ruochen's mind, and he couldn't help but shake his head again.
Seeing this, Xue Chen and Xue Ningxiao said nothing. They just felt that Zhang Ruochen was strange. He clearly had the blood of the undead blood clan, but he didn't seem to have any desire for blood.
Like them, when they see blood, they can't help but become excited and find it difficult to restrain themselves.
This is racial nature and almost impossible to change.
Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but said: "You two should first talk about the situation of the merit battlefield in Kunlun Realm, especially the battle in the Central Imperial City. How did it evolve later? Is there any result?"
Xuechen pondered for a moment, and then said: "When you came out of Qinghong Pavilion, the Heaven Realm seized the favorable opportunity and launched a massive attack, causing heavy losses to the Hell Realm army. After that, it should be because Aunt Fourteen summoned your soul.
This will cause the space cracks to collapse, which will have a great impact on the hell realm, and it will no longer be possible to continuously transport holy monks to the Kunlun realm."
"Because of the outbreak of the Divine War, the Heavenly Court Realm has stepped up its inspections of the Kunlun Realm, making it difficult to reopen the space cracks. On the contrary, the Pangu Realm, the Demon God Realm and the Wanxu Realm have further joined in, causing the Tianting Realm to intensify its war effort.
Invest your energy.”
"The plan to besiege the dynasty cannot be continued for the time being. Next, the Kunlun Realm Merit Battlefield will probably be a protracted war that may not end within a hundred years. Because of this, Xiaoxiao and I will be here at this time
, return to the realm of hell.”
Speaking of this, Xuechen couldn't help but sigh a little. He wanted to go to Kunlun Realm to make contributions and look for opportunities. Unexpectedly, everything was far from what he expected.
As for the Kunlun Realm Merit Battlefield, the key to why there has been such a big change lies in Zhang Ruochen.
Not to mention anything else, if Zhang Ruochen had not turned the tide in Qinghong Pavilion, the peach trees would have probably been cut off, and the Kunlun Realm would no longer be able to make any struggle. I am afraid that it will only take ten years for the Hell Realm to end the war of merit.
Hearing these words, Zhang Ruochen felt much relieved. His efforts were finally not in vain. The longer this war is delayed, the more beneficial it will be for the Kunlun realm.
It’s hard to say that at some point, there will be a huge turnaround.
However, at this stage, he cannot get involved in the Kunlun Realm Merit Battlefield.
The top priority is that Zhang Ruochen needs to control his physical strength first, improve his cultivation strength, attend the Hunting Heaven Banquet, and rescue Chi Kunlun from Yan Wushen.
In addition, he has also long wanted to see what kind of place the Temple of Destiny is?
Can it really decide the fate of everyone?
Zhang Ruochen didn't believe it.
Because Xuechen and Xueningxiao both have human blood in their bodies, and they are not so repulsive to outsiders like him. Zhang Ruochen's resistance to them has also been reduced a bit.
The three of them continued to chat about the Kunlun Realm Merit Battlefield and the Hell Realm.
Xuechen is not only gifted, but also has a calm personality. He has his own unique opinions on everything. In terms of talent, ability, and knowledge, he can stand out in the world of heaven.
Xue Ningxiao was still a little jealous and afraid of Zhang Ruochen at first. Her understanding of him was still in the Kunlun realm when he was killing everyone. At that time, Zhang Ruochen was like a god of murder, and he was in countless hell realms.
The famous and powerful man became a dead soul under his sword.
However, it didn't take long for her true nature to be revealed, and she no longer showed any restraint.
Xue Ningxiao has a lively personality. She looks about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a girl-like appearance, but is extremely coquettish. She often smiles like a little enchantress.
After asking what he wanted to know, Zhang Ruochen asked: "Is there a place in Tianlin Ancient City that sells sacred stones?"
"Of course there is. After all, Tianlin Ancient City is also one of the oldest and largest cities in the world of the Blood Sky Tribe. It is not comparable to an ordinary small town. Cousin Ruochen, do you need a sacred stone?" Xu Ningxiao blinked her beautiful eyes.
, with a look full of curiosity.
Zhang Ruochen said: "It does need a little bit."
"Actually, if you need a divine stone, you can exchange it directly within the family, and it is much cheaper than outside. Moreover, with your status, you can easily get the gift as long as you ask." Xue Ningxiao looked a little confused.
With the Xuejue family's heritage, there will naturally be no shortage of sacred stones stored in them.
As if he had read through Zhang Ruochen's mind, Xuechen stopped Xue Ningxiao from continuing and said, "If you want to buy the sacred stone, you can go to the Ancient Saint Pavilion. It is the largest holy shop in the world of the ten major blood tribes and is spread all over the world."
"Behind the Ancient Holy Pavilion, there are gods and even the shadow of the Immortal Temple. As long as there are enough holy stones, anything can be purchased."
Without much delay, Zhang Ruochen, Xuechen and Xu Ningxiao left Xutian Tower and rushed straight to the Ancient Saint Pavilion.
The Ancient Saint Pavilion occupies a large area in the most prosperous area of Tianlin Ancient City, with pavilions and pavilions that are extremely luxurious.
They entered the Ancient Saint Pavilion and caused a lot of commotion. A maid immediately entered the back hall to spread the message.
After a while, a clone of a great sage in the immortal realm came up to him, with a smile on his face and a very enthusiastic look on his face, and said: "His Royal Highness the Son of God's visit to the Ancient Sacred Pavilion really makes the Ancient Sacred Pavilion shine."
Immediately, he led Zhang Ruochen and the three of them into an elegant house, and asked people to offer them holy fruits, heavenly springs, and blood wine. They were completely received according to the highest standards.
After the Blood Queen, Pluto returned as a god and caused havoc in the sea of time. The news had already spread throughout the hell world, and Zhang Ruochen's identity as the Son of God was also known to all parties.
My mother is a god, my uncle is a god, and my grandfather is the world-famous bloody god of war.
What's more, Zhang Ruochen himself is also a great sage.
With such a background and such cultivation, who dares to neglect him?
No matter who comes into contact with Zhang Ruochen, they must be careful and respectful.
There is no way, his current status is much more noble than when he was the envoy of the Moon God.
No one thought that he, who once fought life and death with the hell world, would suddenly transform into the heir of a god in the hell world.
Even though many people hate Zhang Ruochen deeply, they are helpless now.
If you want to touch him, you must first think about whether you can withstand the anger of the three gods. Xiu Chen is a lesson learned from the past.
In the hell world, how many people are more powerful than Xiu Chen?
The Great Sage of the Immortal Realm who greeted Zhang Ruochen was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his early forties. His cultivation was very advanced, his blood was strong, and he was in his prime.
"I am Saint Qi Yong, the master of this ancient holy pavilion in Tianlin Ancient City. I wonder what His Highness the Son of God needs?" the middle-aged man said with a smile, appearing extremely polite.
Zhang Ruochen didn't mince words and went straight to the point: "The sacred stone."
"How much does His Highness the Son of God need?" Qi Yong asked.
In fact, Qi Yong was very confused. What the Xuejue family should have was a sacred stone. Why did Zhang Ruochen come to the Ancient Saint Pavilion to buy it?
Of course, at this time, he definitely couldn't ask this question.
Zhang Ruochen pondered for a moment and said: "One hundred."
It would take quite a while to fully control the demigod's physical body. In addition, he also had to improve his cultivation strength, so he naturally had to prepare more divine stones.
Of course, the more sacred stones, the better.
A strange color flashed in Qi Yong's eyes. The number reported by Zhang Ruochen was indeed a bit beyond his expectation.
Sacred stones are not ordinary things. They are extremely expensive. A monk in the Holy King Realm may not be able to exchange all his wealth for one.
Xuechen and Xue Ningxiao also looked surprised. They also did not expect that Zhang Ruochen would buy so many sacred stones. Even the great sage of Qianwen Realm may not be able to do this.
"His Royal Highness the Son of God should know the price of the Divine Stone. One Divine Stone is worth one billion Holy Stones. His Royal Highness the Son of God needs one hundred Divine Stones, which is one hundred billion Holy Stones." Qi Yong said.
The value of the sacred stone is the same in the hell world and the heaven world, and the price is constant.
The last time Zhang Ruochen purchased sacred stones from the Qianrui Realm, it was Fairy Baihua who made the decision. Because of human relationships, the purchase was reduced by 100 million sacred stones.
In fact, the undead vampires do not need holy stones to practice. They mainly rely on blood to enhance their strength.
However, the blood captured through killing is actually only a very small part.
Most of the blood sources of the undead vampires are the immortal blood spring and the immortal blood tree, both of which can provide a large amount of blood.
However, the blood produced by the Immortal Blood Fountain and the Immortal Blood Tree is only pure blood, containing very little energy and cannot meet the needs of cultivation.
Therefore, it is necessary to add holy stones to the immortal blood spring and use the holy stones to cultivate the immortal blood tree. Only in this way can the blood produced by the two have the same effect as the blood in the monk's body.
Because of this, holy stones can also circulate in the world of undead vampires.
Turning his hands, Zhang Ruochen took out a storage ring, handed it to Qi Yong, and said, "Calculate how many holy stones the treasures inside are worth."
Qi Yong quickly reached out to take it and checked it with his mental strength.
After this inspection, his eyes suddenly changed slightly.
The storage ring contains a large number of treasures, sacred objects, talismans, elixirs, etc. There are many treasures.
These treasures were all obtained by Zhang Ruochen at the Meritorious Battlefield in the Kunlun Realm. They were huge in number and extremely miscellaneous. They had everything, and he had no use keeping them.
The Battle of Sword Tomb, the Battle of Xianji Mountain, the Battle of True Dragon Island, the Battle of the Blood God Cult, the Battle of Ziwei Palace, etc., Zhang Ruochen gained a lot from every big battle.
Especially in the battle at Ziwei Palace, he killed nearly a thousand top warriors from the heaven factions, including many leaders, and his gains were even more astonishing.
What is being taken out now is actually only a part, and most of them are very common. Really good things will not be sold casually.
Like the sacred weapon, it was kept by Zhang Ruochen and used for refining Shen Yuan's ancient sword.
Using his strong mental power, Qi Yong didn't take long to calculate the value of all the treasures.
"These treasures are worth a total of 134 billion holy stones." Qi Yong said.
Zhang Ruochen took out a space ring again and said: "The treasures inside should be worth six billion holy stones. Exchange them all into divine stones for me."
"Your Highness, Son of God, please wait a moment. I will go get the divine stone right now," Qi Yong said.
Although he is the master of this ancient holy pavilion, he cannot carry a large number of sacred stones with him and needs to go to the treasure house to get them.
Not long after, Qi Yong returned and handed a space ring into Zhang Ruochen's hands.
Zhang Ruochen scanned it with his mental power and determined that there were one hundred and forty sacred stones among them, and immediately put them away. After getting what he wanted, he left directly and returned to the Xuejue family.
In the next period of time, he will focus all his energy on cultivation, striving to control the demigod body as soon as possible and reach his peak state.
Whether it was Yan Wushen's invitation or the divine will from the Blood God of War, Zhang Ruochen felt that this Heaven Hunting Banquet was anything but simple.
You must be strong enough to deal with it calmly.
Xue Ningxiao was still curious and asked: "Why is he doing this?"
Xue Chen knew what she was talking about, smiled and said: "How can Zhang Ruochen be a mortal? He has his own thoughts on doing things. In the Xuejue family, with his status, he can indeed easily obtain the divine stone.
.But the premise is that he is willing."
"Why is he unwilling?" Xue Ningxiao said.
Xue Chen stared at the direction Zhang Ruochen left and said, "A sense of belonging. He has no sense of belonging to the Xuejue family yet. I think this is also the reason why the God of War asked him to lead the team to participate in the Hunting Heaven Banquet."
…
After returning to the Xuejue family and making the appropriate arrangements, Zhang Ruochen immediately began to practice in seclusion.
Inlaid with the sacred stone, the sundial started to move, releasing the power of time and covering a radius of one hundred and twenty feet.
Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged under the sundial, took out a small amount of Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Spring from the Mercury gourd, and swallowed it directly.
The Sun and Moon God Dragon Spring, obtained from the True Dragon Island, has all kinds of incredible functions, especially the ability to nourish the physical body and the holy soul, allowing him to control his own power faster.
Those who awakened in the Yin and Yang Sea used the Sun and Moon God Dragon Spring to restore their strength to its peak in a short period of time.
What they used was just the most common holy spring. What Zhang Ruochen was swallowing now was the essence of the holy spring.
Zhang Ruochen collected more than 2,000 drops of holy spring essence on True Dragon Island, but they have not been used yet, but now they come in handy.
"Boom."
The majestic blood energy surged in Zhang Ruochen's body, making a loud sound like a rushing river.
At a certain moment, a powerful stream of blood rushed out from Zhang Ruochen's back.
"It hurts...what's going on? This power...this..."
Zhang Ruochen's back felt as if there was a flame burning, and the pain made his body feel like it was melting.
That kind of pain was unbearable even with his cultivation and will.
Gradually, golden light glowed on Zhang Ruochen's back, as if something was about to break out of his body.
"Wow."
This pain lasted for about two days. Eight golden flesh wings sprouted from Zhang Ruochen's back, and they were covered with complex and mysterious lines.
Zhang Ruochen put his hands on the ground, breathing heavily, and his forehead was covered with sweat.
Flesh wings are an important symbol of the undead vampires, and almost all of them are born with them.
Logically speaking, Zhang Ruochen should have grown flesh wings long ago, but after he was born, Emperor Ming sealed the undead bloodline in his body, making him no different from ordinary people.
After that, although the Blood Queen warmed and nurtured this physical body to become extremely powerful, because there was no holy soul to take over, the physical wings never grew.
Until now, Zhang Ruochen began to control the power of the demigod's body, fully stimulating the bloodline of the undead vampires, and finally allowed the flesh wings to grow.
"Golden flesh wings?"
Taking out an ancient bronze mirror and looking at the fleshy wings growing out of his back, Zhang Ruochen was stunned there for a long time, unable to accept it. He felt as if the world had collapsed.
