King Jinhuang knew that Zhang Ruochen had returned, but he did not turn around and said, "Is the person you want to save okay?"
Zhang Ruochen stood behind King Jinhuang, staring at the Pillar of Niehai in the sea, and said: "Fortunately, the Xuanwu Holy Source was given to her in time, and she has passed the dangerous period."
After a long while, King Jinhuang said again: "The power of time and space is quite extraordinary. It is said that only by turning on the mark of the divine martial arts of time and space can one master these two powers. Since ancient times, there have only been two people who have turned on the divine mark of time and space. You should be the first.
Three people, right?”
To be able to become a semi-saint, one must be knowledgeable and well-versed in martial arts and anecdotes about the world.
It is actually quite normal for King Jinhuang to know the legend about the time and space divine martial mark.
Zhang Ruochen said calmly: "Senior, what do you mean by this?"
King Jinhuang had an extraordinary demeanor, and he exuded a majestic air. He smiled and said, "I just want to tell you that I have not opened the time and space divine mark, and I will not covet your time and space."
A unique skill."
"Besides, we hit it off like old friends. We don't know each other until we fight. From now on, you don't have to always call me senior. We can be friends as equals."
Upon reaching the semi-saint realm, a monk's lifespan will be greatly improved.
Among them, some long-lived semi-saints can even live to be two hundred years old.
On the surface, King Jinhuang appears to be only about forty years old. In fact, his real age is over a hundred years old, which is older than Zhang Ruochen's grandfather.
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, "If word spreads about my friendship with a semi-sage, I'm afraid countless people will say that I am an arrogant person who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth."
King Jinhuang said: "If I remember correctly, you seem to be the king of a lower-level county, but the prince of the First Central Empire. I am also a prince, so why can't I be considered a peer? What's more, you
He is a disciple of Sword Master Xuanji, and he may be even higher in seniority than me."
It is true that Zhang Ruochen and King Jinhuang are both princes, but Zhang Ruochen is only the lowest "inferior prince", while King Jinhuang is the "inferior domain king", three titles higher than Zhang Ruochen.
You must know that the hierarchy of the First Central Empire is very strict. The difference of one title is already the difference between heaven and earth, let alone the difference of three titles?
However, even King Jinhuang didn't care about these red tapes, and Zhang Ruochen certainly wasn't pretentious, saying: "Okay! Since the prince means this, I will be bold and call you brother."
King Jinhuang laughed loudly, slapped Zhang Ruochen on the shoulder, and said: "Since you call me brother, then of course I have to keep the secret for you, my brother."
Then, King Jinhuang's smile faded and he solemnly said: "I will not reveal the secret of your opening the time and space divine martial mark to anyone."
Zhang Ruochen nodded, stared at the Pillar of Niehai, and asked: "So, how should we deal with this evil weapon?"
King Jinhuang frowned and said: "With my cultivation, I can't suppress it. Previously, I had used the messenger light talisman to report the news to the superiors, and asked the Ministry of War to send saints to collect it."
Even with King Jinhuang's cultivation level, he would not dare to touch the Pillar of Nie Hai. Zhang Ruochen's cultivation level is not even one percent of that of King Jinhuang, so he would not even dare to approach it.
Only a saint can suppress such an evil weapon.
King Jinhuang suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said: "The body of the sixth-order Red Cloud Python and the body of Huoqing Xuanwu are both rare treasures for you. Move faster,
Don’t take advantage of those guys from the Ministry of War.”
If the experts from the Ministry of War arrive, they will definitely take away not only the Pillar of Niehai, but also the bodies of Qinghuo Xuanwu and Wuskeleton King.
It was for this reason that King Jinhuang reminded Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen understood this and immediately activated the Dragon Ball's holy dragon energy. The flesh and blood on his back expanded and turned into a pair of huge dragon wings.
"call!"
The dragon wings stretched out, emitting streaks of golden light. Zhang Ruochen controlled the dragon wings and flew into the sky, leaving a series of afterimages on the sea.
After a while, Zhang Ruochen came over the corpses of King Wu Skeleton Dragon and Qinghuo Xuanwu, folded his dragon wings, and landed on the back of Qinghuo Xuanwu.
After the fleshy crown of the Wuskeleton King was cut off by Zhang Ruochen, it transformed into its true form, turning into a huge red-crowned fleshy mushroom with a diameter of nine meters, like a red spiritual flower dripping with blood.
Zhang Ruochen found the red-crown meat mushroom inside Qinghuo Xuanwu's body, put it away, and stored it in a storage ring.
When the gods resonated for the fourth time, Zhang Ruochen's mental power had increased a lot, very close to the forty-fourth level.
This red-crowned mushroom is a priceless treasure for spiritual monks. Once refined, it will not be difficult for Zhang Ruochen to break through the forty-fourth level.
Of course, there are also many treasures on the body of the Wu Skeleton Dragon King, such as: dragon beads, dragon blood, dragon tendons, dragon bones, and dragon scales.
Everything you put on sale will fetch sky-high prices.
In particular, that dragon bead is a treasure that can improve your cultivation. Even a semi-saint will be tempted by it.
Of course, all the treasures on King Wu Skeleton Dragon's body, taken together, are actually not worth a single claw of Qinghuo Xuanwu.
The body of Qinghuo Xuanwu is more than twenty miles long, floating on the water like a blue island.
Qinghuo Xuanwu has been dead for many years, and 90% of Xuanwu's holy blood has been lost. Even if there is still 10% left, it has been corroded by the evil energy of the Pillar of Niehai. Only by using the Qiankun Divine Wood Map to refine the evil energy can it be taken.
What Zhang Ruochen is more interested in is the shell of Qinghuo Xuanwu, which is more precious than any weapon refining material.
Only a two-meter-square piece of shell can be forged into a basalt armor that is difficult to break even with a sacred weapon.
Such a huge shell can be used to forge at least 100,000 Xuanwu armors, which can be used to cultivate a Xuanwu army.
Those big guys in the Ministry of War would definitely be very jealous if they saw Qinghuo Xuanwu's body.
Although Xuanwu armor is far inferior to holy weapon-level armor, and its defensive power is also limited, it is superior in quantity and simplicity in production.
Zhang Ruochen can forge one hundred thousand Xuanwu armors, but which force can forge one hundred thousand sacred armors?
The preciousness of Qinghuo Xuanwu's body is self-evident.
King Jinhuang was able to give up Qinghuo Xuanwu's body to Zhang Ruochen because he had something better.
Pillar of the Sea of Evil.
The Pillar of Niehai is such a treasure. As long as the saints from the Ministry of War come to collect it, King Jinhuang will definitely receive a large amount of rewards even if he has achieved great military exploits.
Therefore, he and Zhang Ruochen each took what they needed.
Zhang Ruochen took out Shen Yuan's ancient sword, channeled his true energy, and struck down suddenly.
"Snapped!"
The tip of Shen Yuan's ancient sword collided with the shell of Qinghuo Xuanwu, and a large spark came out.
Zhang Ruochen's sword was like piercing an iron wall, making a sharp sword trembling sound, which caused pain in his arm.
However, the shell of Qinghuo Xuanwu only left a shallow concave mark.
This is because Shen Yuan's ancient sword is extremely sharp, so it can leave a concave mark. If it were replaced by another hundred-pattern sacred weapon, it might not be able to damage the Xuanwu shell.
Qinghuo Xuanwu's cultivation is far beyond that of an ordinary saint, and must have reached the level of an eighth-level savage beast.
The combat power of a level seven savage beast is comparable to that of a saint.
The eighth-level savage beast is comparable to the king among saints and is called the "Saint King".
Under the nourishment of the holy energy, every part of Qinghuo Xuanwu's flesh and blood will contain the power of the holy way, not to mention that it is the shell with the strongest defense?
"With the current level of Shen Yuan's ancient sword, it is still very difficult to split the Xuanwu shell. It may be of great use in the future."
Zhang Ruochen unfolded the Divine Wood Map of the Universe and took the bodies of the Black Skeleton Dragon King and the Green Fire Xuanwu into the inner world of the scroll.
He planned to wait until he returned to the Holy Court to collect the blood of the Semi-Saint Dragon and the Blood of the Black Tortoise.
As soon as Zhang Ruochen stepped out of the inner world, he felt a wave of heat hit his face, making his cheeks hurt.
"Gulu!"
"Gulu!"
…
The sea water is boiling, with bubbles the size of a washbasin popping up.
The air above the sea is also extremely hot and dry.
"Ouch!"
In the distance, on the sea level, a red cloud of fire surged over.
In the fire cloud, there seemed to be a shadow of a beast, making an ear-splitting roar.
Zhang Ruochen looked over intently and was shocked: "Earth Fire Qilin!"
Intense flames emitted from the body of the Earth Fire Kirin, and its legs, which were as thick as four pillars, moved quickly and flew towards the direction of Zhang Ruochen.
You must know that at this moment, we are not at the bottom of the sea, and there is no pressure from the sea water. Moreover, Zhang Ruochen cannot use the power of the relics, and it is impossible to have the combat power of a semi-saint level for the second time.
Now Zhang Ruochen is just a monk who has transformed into a fish-dragon first. How can he possibly block a sixth-order savage-level earth-fire unicorn?
Just when Zhang Ruochen was about to hide in the world of picture scrolls, he discovered that the fire unicorn was not coming towards him, but was chasing the monk Li.
Monk Lidi ran quickly and when he saw Zhang Ruochen in front of him, he shouted out of breath: "Donor Zhang, please help this poor monk to subdue this unicorn."
"Master, don't be joking. With my humble cultivation, how can I compete with the Earth Fire Qilin? It would be better if you subdue it yourself, which will make you more powerful." Zhang Ruochen said.
Are you kidding me, asking Zhang Ruochen to surrender the Earth Fire Qilin?
Zhang Ruochen is self-aware and will never try to be strong on something he cannot do.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen did not leave, but stood aside and observed quietly. If Monk Lidi was really in danger, he would naturally not leave it alone.
The earth fire unicorn chased the standing monk and circled around Zhang Ruochen.
Strangely enough, the Earth Fire Kirin seemed to be unable to see Zhang Ruochen, so it only chased the Li Di Monk.
Monk Lidi kept reciting Buddhist sutras from his mouth, as if he wanted to influence it.
The Earth Fire Kirin's mouth showed sharp teeth, and it roared like thunder from time to time. It was obvious that it wanted to eat the standing monk.
In fact, the reason why the Earth Fire Kirin chased Monk Lidi was because Monk Lidi had merged with the golden body of the Buddha Emperor.
To the wild beasts, Monk Lidi is like a human-shaped holy medicine. Swallowing him can make them attain enlightenment and become holy.
Zhang Ruochen observed for a long time, touched his chin with his finger, nodded, and said: "Monk Lidi has indeed reached the state of physical sanctification. Although he cannot perfectly use the power of his physical body, his escape speed is top-notch. Even on the ground, he can
Even the fire unicorn couldn't catch up with him."
If the word spread that the semi-saint-level unicorn could not catch up with the monk who had reached the first level of fish-dragon cultivation, no one would believe it.
The fact happened before Zhang Ruochen's eyes.
The Earth Fire Kirin chased Monk Lidi for hundreds of laps, but not only failed to catch up with him, but he was very tired.
The Earth Fire Qilin stopped and stared at Zhang Ruochen.
It seems that it was only at this moment that it saw that there was actually a human being in this sea area.
