"How's it going? I took action and not only helped you kill a powerful enemy, but also saved your life. Isn't that very strong?" Xiao Hei said with a smile.
"Quejiu has been seriously injured. Otherwise, with her level of cultivation, how could she be fatally wounded by one of your moves?"
Zhang Ruochen sat on Xiao Hei's back and looked behind him. He saw dozens of miles away, a thousand-legged centipede more than two hundred meters long, with black poisonous mist pouring out of its body, and it was chasing after it.
However, Xiao Hei's flying speed was much faster than that of the Thousand-legged Centipede, and he quickly left it far away.
"Chunba's strength is higher than Quejiu's, but his speed is a bit lower, so it's not something to be afraid of."
Just when Zhang Ruochen took a breath, suddenly, a red cloud appeared in the sky. From the cloud, a dragon roar sounded, and then, a seventh-order savage beast-level red fire winged dragon flew out.
That Red Fire Winged Dragon was still in its infancy, and was far from being comparable to a real seventh-level savage beast.
However, its body was still very huge, like a red hill. It spread out a pair of scaly dragon wings, swooped down, and caught up to Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei.
The dragon's wings flapped, creating a huge wind force and making a roaring hurricane sound.
"That devil from the devil's sect actually raised a dragon."
Zhang Ruochen frowned, held the thunder bead with both hands, and began to mobilize his mental power. Although his physical body was seriously injured, he could still use his mental power to attack.
"It's just a red fire pterosaur, let me come and play with it."
Xiao Hei's cultivation level is obviously not as good as that of the Red Fire Winged Dragon, but he is quite excited.
Xiao Hei took the initiative to attack the Red Fire Winged Dragon, spitting out a black electric ball from his mouth, hitting it on the top of its head and knocking off a dragon scale next to the dragon's eye.
"Ouch!"
The Red Fire Winged Dragon roared, very angry, and stared at Xiao Hei.
How dare a mere fat cat provoke the noble dragon clan?
Is it tired of living?
"A pterosaur with impure blood dares to avoid shouting at me. Believe it or not, I will eat you alive?"
Xiao Hei raised his two furry ears and exposed two sharp teeth, looking even more arrogant than the Red Fire Pterosaur.
The Red Fire Winged Dragon was enraged and spit out a mouthful of flames, which turned into a waterfall of red flames and poured down from the sky.
Black light emitted from Xiao Hei's body, and his speed increased a lot.
"Thunder and Lightning Field."
Under Zhang Ruochen's control, streaks of purple lightning emitted from the thunder beads, forming a spherical thunder and lightning field, wrapping him and Xiao Hei.
They hit the flaming waterfall, passed through it, and flew towards the sky.
The Red Fire Winged Dragon chased to a position only a thousand miles away from the Liangyi Sect. When it heard Ouyang Huan's message, it stopped its pursuit and immediately turned around and flew back.
"If this emperor recovers his cultivation, he will definitely capture it, roast it and eat its dragon meat." Xiao Hei looked at the Red Fire Winged Dragon flying away, feeling a little disappointed and sighed.
"Tonight, such a big commotion must have alarmed the half-saints of the Liangyi Sect. We should be more careful and return to the sect as soon as possible." Zhang Ruochen said.
Zhang Ruochen fell to the ground, put on the Meteor Invisibility Cloak, took Xiao Hei with him, and entered the Liangyi Sect without anyone noticing, and returned to Zixia Lingshan.
However, just as Zhang Ruochen walked into the small courtyard where he lived, he saw Gai Tianjiao walking out of the house.
Her eyes were piercingly staring at the masked Zhang Ruochen, and she said, "Are you coming back too late?"
Zhang Ruochen looked calm and unhurried, took off the mask on his face, and smiled slightly: "Since I was discovered by Senior Sister, there is nothing to hide. Lin Yue thanks Senior Sister for saving his life."
"Wow!"
Gai Tianjiao's palms burst out with red flames, wrapping around Zhang Ruochen, and said in a cold voice: "I have never heard of you having such a high level of spiritual power. A forty-fourth level thunder and lightning spiritual power master.
It really makes me a little impressed.”
Zhang Ruochen knew that Gai Tianjiao must have begun to doubt his identity, but he still seemed quite calm and said: "Everyone has a trump card, so naturally I won't reveal all my methods. Could it be that Senior Sister has to take care of this?"
?”
Gai Tianjiao narrowed her eyes and said, "Why did you leave the sect tonight? How did you provoke the people of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect?"
Zhang Ruochen looked at her and said, "Why did Senior Sister leave the sect? How did she appear there? What's your reason is my reason."
Gai Tianjiao saw that Zhang Ruochen's eyes were not strange at all, and immediately frowned, put back the flames on his hands, and said: "Xu Changsheng was investigating Qi Feiyu, and I followed the mark he left before I found it. What about you?
?”
Zhang Ruochen clasped his hands behind his back and said, "I also chased Qi Feiyu and found him there. When I arrived, Senior Brother Xu had been killed by people from the Demon Cult. They wanted to kill and silence him, so they took action against me."
Gai Tianjiao's eyes widened and she said, "Did you see Qi Feiyu come into contact with people from the Demon Sect?"
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, "I didn't see it."
He added another sentence: "Perhaps, she has already left when I arrive."
It is true that Zhang Ruochen did not see Qi Feiyu with his own eyes, but it was definitely not a coincidence that he and Gai Tianjiao were chasing her before they discovered the monks of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect.
The expression on Gai Tianjiao's face kept changing, obviously she was thinking about something extremely important.
After a while, she stared at Zhang Ruochen again and said, "Just pretend you don't know anything about tonight. Do you understand?"
"Why? What if Qi Feiyu is really a spy of the Demon Sect?" Zhang Ruochen was quite puzzled.
Gai Tianjiao snorted coldly: "What do you know? Without definite evidence, whoever mentions this sentence will die. Who is Qi Feiyu? She is the heir of the Qi family, you say she is a demon
People in the sect, aren’t they saying that the entire Qi family is also a force of the demon sect?”
"The Qi family is a medieval family and has a close relationship with the Liang Yi Sect. Do you know how powerful the Qi family is in the Liang Yi Sect? Do you know how many semi-saints there are in the Liang Yi Sect? The saints are from the Qi family?"
"Boy, if you want to survive, you'd better keep your mouth shut. For a person with no background like you, before you become a semi-saint, no matter how talented you are, it will be easy for the Qi family to kill you."
After saying that, Gai Tianjiao left straight away and rushed towards the ancient sacred mountain.
No matter what, he had to report this matter to the Moon Burial Sword Saint first.
As for Lin Yue, in fact, Gai Tianjiao did not doubt him too much. First of all, Lin Yue was the person chosen by Patriarch Taiyi. With Patriarch Taiyi’s cultivation and ability to recognize people, he should not be mistaken.
Secondly, Lin Yue and the Demon Cult were in a hostile relationship. If she had not arrived in time, Lin Yue might have been killed.
"Qi Feiyu actually has such huge energy in Liangyi Sect." Zhang Ruochen's eyes revealed a deep look of worry.
Originally, Zhang Ruochen thought that he could contain Qi Feiyu if he had the handle.
Hearing Gai Tianjiao's words, Zhang Ruochen realized that he had been too naive before. The Qi family's power in the Liangyi Sect was too huge. If Qi Feiyu really wanted to deal with him, he only needed to use some random methods to defeat him.
He disappears forever.
In the past, Qi Feiyu only admired his talent and wanted to win over him, so she never killed him.
But in the future, it may not be like this again.
"If my cultivation can break through to the sixth transformation of fish and dragon, I can open up three holy veins, and the holy energy in my body will become thicker, enough to maintain the transformation for a month."
"When the time comes, I can hide in the sword pavilion."
"No matter how powerful the Qi family is, they should still not dare to provoke the Moon Burial Sword Master easily."
Zhang Ruochen felt a sense of urgency in his heart, so he immediately entered the picture scroll world, took out the Xuanwu Holy Blood, and began to refine it, striving to break through to the sixth transformation of fish and dragon as soon as possible.
According to Zhang Ruochen's estimation, one must reach at least the semi-saint realm in order to fully digest the Xuanwu Holy Blood.
Qinghuo Xuanwu is a creature comparable to the Holy King, and its body is a huge treasure house. Falling into Zhang Ruochen's hands is actually a huge waste.
If it is obtained by those saints, its value will be even more incredible.
In the blink of an eye, three months have passed in the world of picture scrolls.
Zhang Ruochen refined three drops of Xuanwu Holy Blood in a row, and his cultivation level broke through again, reaching the late stage of the fifth transformation of fish and dragon.
On this day, Zixia Half Saint sent a disciple to send a message to Zhang Ruochen, informing him to participate in the qualifying match of the swordsmanship competition.
The so-called ranking match is a battle between the top ten monks of the Eighth Transformation of Fish and Dragon. In the end, a ranking is drawn up.
The higher the ranking of the monks, the higher their status in the Liang Yi Sect will be in the future, the greater their reputation will be, and the more opportunities they will have to show their faces in sword discussion conferences.
However, Zhang Ruochen just wants to attack the Sixth Transformation of Fish and Dragon right now, so how can he be in the mood to fight over who ranks at the top and who ranks at the bottom?
Zhang Ruochen came out of seclusion and went to meet Half-Saint Zixia in person to explain the reasons to him.
Zixia Half Saint learned that Zhang Ruochen wanted to retreat to improve his cultivation, so he readily agreed. For young people, cultivation is the most important thing. If Lin Yue has such an awareness, Zixia Half Saint will naturally give his full support.
Of course, Zixia Half Saint also told Zhang Ruochen that since he gave up participating in the qualifying competition, his ranking in the eighth fish-dragon transformation level would only be ranked at the bottom tenth.
Zhang Ruochen naturally wouldn't mind.
After walking out of Zixia Semi-Saint's cave, Zhang Ruochen accidentally heard a piece of news on his way back to the small courtyard where he lived:
"Sword Master Xuanji has issued a letter of war to Sword Master Jiuyou. They will fight to the death in the Sword Pavilion on the ninth day of September."
"A battle to the death?"
Zhang Ruochen was slightly startled, unsure whether this news was true or false.
Of course he understands the meaning of "life and death battle", which means that either you die or I die.
Zhang Ruochen naturally wanted to confirm such an important matter again.
At dusk, Mu Jiji and Xun Hualiu happily rushed back to Zixialing Mountain. When they saw Lin Yue sitting in the courtyard, they all looked at each other, looking quite surprised.
So, they walked over immediately.
Mu Jiji was not at all restrained. He sat down opposite Zhang Ruochen and said, "Boss Lin Yue, aren't you practicing in seclusion? Why did you get out of seclusion early?"
"It's not that I left the customs in advance, but that I'm here to wait for you."
Zhang Ruochen glanced at the two of them, showed a faint smile, and asked: "What happened? Why are you two so excited?"
(Last night, I wrote until three in the morning. I was really sleepy, so I went to bed first. I’m really sorry. I woke up at seven this morning and finally caught up with the update.
Because the due date has arrived, the baby is about to be born, and there are many things going on, the update time in the last one or two weeks will be unstable, but I will definitely not stop updating, and I will try my best to update on time. I hope everyone can understand.)
