Zhang Ruochen tried again to break open the Sun and Moon Crystal Coffin. This time, he even borrowed Han Xue's Void Sword, but still could not shake it.
In the end, Zhang Ruochen had no choice but to give up and did not continue to struggle.
"It is recorded in ancient books that the Sun and Moon Crystal Coffin is a sacred artifact of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect. It has been passed down for a long time and has many wonderful uses. After this woman died, the Sun and Moon Crystal Coffin could be used to hold the body. She was alive
At that time, he was at least a palace master, a saint-level figure, and maybe even an ancient cult leader." Zhang Ruochen said.
Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei didn't know much about the specific information about the Sun and Moon Crystal Coffin. If they wanted to find out her identity, they could only wait until they returned to Kunlun Realm and read the files about the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult.
It is absolutely impossible for a person like her to be an unknown person. It should not be difficult to find out her identity.
Although Mu Lingxi and Shen Mo Shu are members of the Demon Cult, they have read through these files a lot. This is the first time they have heard of the name of the Sun and Moon Crystal Coffin, and they are even less clear about the identity of the woman in the coffin.
Han Xue tilted her head and asked curiously: "How can Master be sure that she is dead? Is it impossible that she is still alive and just fell into a deep sleep."
Zhang Ruochen smiled and shook his head and said: "From the Middle Ages to the present, it has been a hundred thousand years at least. Even the great sages have turned into withered bones. Unless they are gods, there is only a little possibility.
Live till now."
"What if he is really a god?" Han Xue said.
Zhang Ruochen touched Han Xue's head and explained: "After the Middle Ages, no one can become a god anymore. All the gods have long since disappeared in the Kunlun world."
Han Xue added: "Didn't Master just say that this sun and moon crystal coffin is a sacred artifact from before the Middle Ages? If this is the case, why can't there be a god lying in the coffin?"
Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen was speechless.
Han Xue dared to imagine things that he didn't dare to imagine. Could it be that he had really become an old-fashioned person?
Zhang Ruochen said: "If my guess is correct, she should have died, otherwise, the Blood Moon Ghost King would not have been born from the blood lake."
Han Xue suddenly realized: "Master, you mean that the Blood Moon Ghost King is her ghost?"
"It should be like this." Zhang Ruochen said.
Han Xue's eyes became a little dim and said: "So, she should indeed be dead. Master, do you think the Master Guild will come back to life?"
Zhang Ruochen looked at the body of Sword Master Xuanji with serious eyes, shook his head and said, "I don't know."
Zhang Ruochen didn't hope that Xuanji Sword Master could come back to life again, but even though his injuries had healed, he was still lifeless and without any vitality.
His soul has dispersed, how can he still survive?
Unless, as Xiao Hei said, he can find a great spiritual sage who can use powerful spiritual power to help summon the soul back.
However, great spiritual sages are too rare. According to legend, only Emperor Wen, one of the Nine Emperors, has reached that level in the past ten thousand years.
Emperor Wen was the leader of Confucianism and Taoism. At that time, he assisted Emperor Qing and Chi Yao to unify the Kunlun realm. It was due to this achievement that after the establishment of the First Central Empire, Chi Yao vigorously supported Confucianism and Taoism, which made the power of Confucianism and Taoism rise.
To the extent that it can compete with Buddhism and Tai Chi.
It is a pity that after the establishment of the First Central Empire, Emperor Wen retired and disappeared into the Kunlun Realm, never to be seen again. No one knows whether he is still alive.
Even if Emperor Wen is still alive, even if Zhang Ruochen can find him, so what?
Could Emperor Wen be able to save Xuanji Sword Master?
It's obviously impossible.
Even if a great spiritual sage wants to summon the souls of the deceased, he still has to pay a high price. Why should he help Zhang Ruochen?
In his eyes, what's the difference between Zhang Ruochen and an ant?
Now, Zhang Ruochen can only temporarily place the body of Xuanji Sword Master under the sacred tree to continue to receive the nourishment of the two energies of life. What if a miracle happens?
…
…………
When the Blood Moon Ghost King came to the Tushu World, he felt that the world was full of life. Every place was full of vitality and greenery. It was completely different from the lifeless underworld.
However, she doesn't like such a world, because she is an undead and needs a steady stream of death energy, soul, and evil spirits to survive.
Otherwise, even if Zhang Ruochen doesn't kill her, she will die soon due to the loss of ghost energy.
Just today, she discovered an extremely powerful aura of death. That aura of death emanated from the place where the aura of life was the strongest.
Just like this, the Blood Moon Ghost King has been looking for the location of the Divine Tree.
Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, she saw an extremely shocking picture in front of her. She saw a huge rotten tree stump sitting on the ground, about thirty feet high.
The tree stump is like a huge and flat round platform, with no edges visible at all. The round platform is divided into densely packed annual rings, and there are countless thousands of them. Each annual ring is like a history book, recording the history from ancient times.
The winds and rains of the entire heaven and earth have changed to this day.
It's hard to imagine how huge that tree would be if it were still alive.
This tree stump is the root of the sacred tree that connects to the sky.
According to Blood Moon Ghost King's visual inspection, the diameter of the tree's roots reaches more than two hundred miles, which is more than one hundred thousand meters. If this tree was still alive, it would take an ordinary person a month to walk around its trunk.
When other monks came here, they could only feel the rich energy of life emanating from the new shoots. However, the Blood Moon Ghost King showed an extremely strong energy of death in the roots of the tree.
That is the remaining power after the death of the Jietian Divine Tree. It is hidden inside the roots of the tree and intersects with the energy of life.
The Blood Moon Ghost King has never seen such a huge amount of death energy, and the quality is also frighteningly high.
"If I can absorb all the death energy in the tree roots, I don't know how far my cultivation will rise. Even the Ghost King Shenchu may not be my opponent, and he is enough to become the most powerful ones outside the underworld.
One of existence."
Two balls of flame appeared in the eyes of the Blood Moon Ghost King, and he spread out his arms, turning into a big light bird, and flew towards the roots of the sacred tree that connects the sky.
However, before the Blood Moon Ghost King landed on the surface of the tree root, a shadow of a person swayed and appeared on the edge of the tree root first, condensing into a heroic young man with his hands behind his back and a face that was exactly the same.
Staring at her with a smile.
"Zhang Ruochen."
The happy look on Blood Moon Ghost King's face immediately disappeared without a trace, he flew down and stood opposite Zhang Ruochen, saying: "I have figured it out, so I can surrender to you."
Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised and said, "Why did you suddenly figure it out?"
The Blood Moon Ghost King asked back, "Besides this path, do I have any other choice? Even if you don't kill me and imprison me in this world, I will die completely soon. At the moment, I don't want to
die."
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said: "A very wise decision."
"However, your cultivation is too weak. If I surrender to you, I will definitely be laughed at by other ghost kings. Therefore, you must agree to two conditions."
The Blood Moon Ghost King had already thought of his words, so he seemed quite calm.
Zhang Ruochen expected that the Blood Moon Ghost King would put forward conditions. As long as her conditions were not too excessive, Zhang Ruochen would agree.
After all, it is not easy for a ghost king to choose to surrender. Suppressing her too hard will be counterproductive.
Whether you are controlling people or ghosts, you must be both strict and kind. If you are too strict, you will inevitably force your subordinates to rebel. If you are too kind, the same is true.
Regardless of whether the Blood Moon Ghost King really surrenders or pretends to surrender, as long as Zhang Ruochen can become her master first, he can naturally use many methods to train and teach her in the future so that she can truly subdue him.
One day, Zhang Ruochen will make her understand how wise today's decision was.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Say."
"First, even if I surrender to you now, we must be on an equal footing until your cultivation level surpasses mine. I can carry out your orders, but I can also choose not to carry out unreasonable orders.
"If you can't agree to this condition, I don't need to mention the second condition." The Blood Moon Ghost King raised his chin, looking quite proud.
"Want equal status?"
A powerful masculine energy burst out from Zhang Ruochen's body, like a blazing sun, forcing the Blood Moon Ghost King to retreat, saying: "What is a reasonable order? What is an unreasonable order?"
If there is no clear boundary, then what is the meaning of your so-called surrender? If you are playing tricks on me, it seems that there is no meaning for me to keep you."
The powerful masculine energy steamed the ghost energy on Blood Moon Ghost King's body, causing her face to become extremely pale. But she still refused to admit defeat and said: "If it is your order, there is huge danger, of course I will not
It will be implemented."
However, the words she spoke were no longer as strong as before.
Zhang Ruochen carried a powerful masculine energy and walked towards the Blood Moon Ghost King, forcing her to continue to retreat.
At this moment, the Blood Moon Ghost King does not look like a powerful king. He is just like a weak girl forced into a corner by a burly man. No one knows what will happen next moment?
The Blood Moon Ghost King was already very weak. He was frightened by the masculine energy at close range and could not resist it at all. He would be wiped out at any time.
After a while, Zhang Ruochen felt that it was almost done, so he restrained his masculinity and said: "Don't worry, if it is something that even you think is dangerous, I will never do it. I agree to the first condition first.
Tell me! What is your second condition?"
The Blood Moon Ghost King breathed a long sigh of relief, glanced at his feet, and said: "I want to absorb all the death energy in the roots of this tree to improve my cultivation."
You should know that Jietian Shenmu is known as the last god of Kunlun Realm. He lived from the beginning of Kunlun Realm to the end of the Middle Ages.
The tree connecting to the sky was cut off, just like the death of a god, naturally leaving behind a huge amount of death energy.
Zhang Ruochen suddenly understood and thought to himself, no wonder the Blood Moon Ghost King suddenly changed his mind and chose to surrender to him. It turned out that he was targeting this death aura.
