On the banks of the Giant Whale River, ninety-nine holy mountains are arranged one after another. Some holy mountains are covered with ice and snow all year round, while others are covered with flames. No ordinary creature can break through.
Every holy mountain is a road leading to the Phoenix Nest.
Zhang Ruochen and others hurried forward towards the holy mountain where the Merit Wall was located, and soon arrived at the foot of the holy mountain.
The earth became extremely hot, the rocks and soil turned red, and their feet made a chirping sound when they stepped on it.
Princess Rakshasa obviously had no interest in the merit register and said: "This holy mountain is very dangerous. A large number of Rakshasa masters broke into it, but they never returned. I think we should capture it first."
It’s not too late to compete for the treasures in the Phoenix Nest.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said: "The deeper you go, the more dangerous it will be. If we can't even seize the wall of merit, what's the point of talking about the Phoenix Nest?"
Su Qingling stood firmly on Zhang Ruochen's side and said: "That's right. The Wall of Merits is related to the life and death of Guanghan Realm, and it must be in our own hands. As for the Phoenix Nest, it would be best if we could capture it.
Even if you can’t win it, it’s not a big deal.”
Princess Rakshasa smiled and said no more.
"I'm going to test it out first, but I want to see how dangerous this holy mountain is?"
Buji attached more than sixty amulets to his body, then inspired the Great Sage's war spirit and carefully began to climb the mountain.
There are a lot of flames surging in the holy mountain. The higher you climb, the higher the temperature of the flames.
However, with Bu Ji's strong cultivation, he was still able to withstand it.
Apart from the flames, there was no other danger. It was surprisingly calm. It didn't take long for Buji to reach the mountainside.
"There doesn't seem to be any danger. Is it because the Rakshasa tribe's climbing direction is different from ours that they encountered disaster?" Su Qingling said.
The marquis of the Rakshasa tribe gathered on the south side of the holy mountain.
Zhang Ruochen and others took another route, so they appeared on the east side of the Holy Mountain. They were not in the same direction, hundreds of miles apart.
On the mountainside, Bu Ji relaxed his vigilance, turned around, and laughed at Zhang Ruochen and Su Qingling: "There is no danger in this holy mountain. You guys should hurry up and follow..."
However, as soon as he said these words, Bu Ji's expression changed.
Because, he found that his voice had become extremely hoarse and old, as if it was a strange old man speaking. When he heard it, he felt his scalp numb and an inexplicable fear in his heart.
Zhang Ruochen and Su Qingling also opened their eyes wide and stared at Bu Ji in shock.
I saw that Bu Ji's face had become a little older, and wrinkles had appeared on his face. He looked like he was in his fifties. Moreover, he continued to age at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even had sprouts on his head.
A strand of white hair.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen realized something, his face changed, and he said: "Get back quickly."
Buji also sensed something was wrong and trembled with fright. Then he burst out as fast as he could and rushed down the mountain.
Even so, his longevity was still passing quickly. When he rushed down the mountain, his hair was gray, his whole body was covered with wrinkles, and his strong and straight body had become a little rickety, as if he was an old man in his eighties or nineties.
Su Qingling was frightened and quickly supported him. With a look of concern in her big eyes, she said: "You...what happened to you..."
Bu Ji looked at his withered hands and then at the white hair hanging down from his head. It was difficult to accept this fact. He let out a shrill cry and fainted.
Zhang Ruochen grabbed Bu Ji's wrist, examined it, and then took out a ten thousand-year holy elixir that could extend his life. He used the Divine Fire of Purification to refine the elixir into liquid droplets and fed it to Bu Ji's mouth.
Su Qingling, on the other hand, continuously injected holy energy into Progressive Extreme's vest to help him refine and absorb the holy medicine.
Gradually, some color returned to Bu Ji's face.
Su Qingling was very worried and asked: "What happened...how could this happen? How could this happen?"
Zhang Ruochen stared at Bu Ji who fell on the ground and said: "Bu Ji's body is quite powerful and he has become a saint. His lifespan exceeds that of ordinary saints. Under normal circumstances, it is quite normal to live to be a thousand years old. But.
Now, he has lost a lot of life span and the life energy in his body is almost exhausted. Even if he takes the life-extending holy medicine, he will probably live for a long time."
Su Qingling had a very good relationship with Bu Ji, and had always regarded him as her elder brother. When she heard such bad news, she found it difficult to accept it, and her eyes were filled with mist.
"You don't have to be so sad. As long as his heart can be tougher, he will not be overwhelmed by setbacks and continue to practice strong. When he breaks through to the realm of the Holy King, his lifespan will be greatly increased. By then, he should be able to regain his youth."
After saying this, Zhang Ruochen stared at the holy mountain in front of him, then took steps to climb up.
Princess Rakshasa was slightly surprised and said: "What are you doing?"
Su Qingling also raised her head and hurriedly stopped Zhang Ruochen, fearing that he would also encounter misfortune. This holy mountain is so weird that it can swallow up the life span of monks. It is a forbidden place.
"Don't worry about me, I'm just going to verify my suspicion."
Zhang Ruochen's eyes were deep, as if he already knew why Bu Ji was aging rapidly, so he quickened his pace. After walking for about three miles, Zhang Ruochen stopped and felt carefully, and he found that the flow of time was speeding up.
Immediately, he quickly backed up and retreated to an area where the flow of time was normal.
In just that moment, Zhang Ruochen realized that he had lost at least half a month of his lifespan.
"Sure enough, it has something to do with time. No wonder Buji's thousand-year lifespan was exhausted in less than half an hour."
Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes between his brows, observed the world, and discovered dense patterns of time.
The entire Flame Sacred Mountain is actually a huge time formation. The higher you climb, the more exaggerated the flow of time is. Any creature that breaks in will probably die.
Not being killed, but dying of old age.
Zhang Ruochen retreated to the foot of the mountain and told Su Qingling and Princess Rakshasa about the incident.
Su Qingling was stunned and said: "First encountered the space formation, and then encountered the time formation. What kind of existence is the creature that established the Phoenix Nest?"
Princess Rakshasa chuckled softly: "I have already said that this holy mountain is very dangerous and cannot be entered. We should go around it and seize the treasure in the Phoenix Nest first."
"Not necessarily."
Zhang Ruochen gently touched his chin, showing a thoughtful look, and then said: "Use the space to move directly to the top of the mountain, and take away the merit book wall as quickly as possible. Doing this may cause you to lose part of your lifespan, but,
You can definitely work hard to make a record of your merits."
If you want Guanghan Realm to be number one in the Saint Merit War, you must seize the Merit Book Wall.
The holy energy in Zhang Ruochen's body circulated rapidly, fully mobilizing the power of space. Then, he rushed forward and performed the Great Space Shift.
"Wow——"
The next moment, Zhang Ruochen appeared more than ten miles away, his face changed slightly, and instead of continuing forward, he quickly backed up and rushed down the mountain.
Retreating to the foot of the mountain, Zhang Ruochen quickly checked inside and found that he had lost more than twenty years of life.
Su Qingling knew that something must have happened, so she quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
Zhang Ruochen said: "With my current cultivation and mental strength, a large space movement can span two to three hundred miles. However, here, it only spans more than ten miles. In this holy mountain, not only time
Inscriptions, and space inscriptions. Now it’s a bit tricky!”
Princess Rakshasa said: "This holy mountain cannot be breached at all. Any creature that breaks in will be dead. There is no need to continue fighting here. It is wise to seize the treasure of the Phoenix Nest first."
Facing the power of time and space, Su Qingling was completely helpless and felt a little shaken in her heart. She asked, "Is there any other way?"
"have."
Zhang Ruochen said: "As long as the time inscriptions and space inscriptions in the holy mountain are destroyed, you can still climb to the top of the mountain."
A ray of light flashed in Princess Rakshasa's eyes, and she said: "Can you destroy the time inscription?"
"Although it takes a lot of time, you can still give it a try."
Zhang Ruochen held Shen Yuan's ancient sword, closed his eyes, mobilized the power of time, and used the third time sword technique "Twelve Hours Sword Technique", and slashed out with one swing of the sword.
In mid-air, one of the time inscriptions broke, and a deafening explosion sounded.
To the south of the Holy Mountain, a large number of marquises from the Rakshasa tribe heard the explosion and flew into the air one after another. Looking towards the east of the Holy Mountain, they discovered the figures of Zhang Ruochen and others.
"What's going on? Why do humans break into the area with the thirty-three holy mountains in the middle? Is there another way to get in?"
The Holy Arrow Marquis, one of the four first-class marquises, was flying in the air, his body emitting a brilliant golden light, and his huge eyes were staring at Zhang Ruochen.
It was that human man who took away his five golden arrows of destruction.
"It's really not easy. You can actually get here."
The Marquis of Holy Arrow opened the golden-backed dragon bone bow and shot out a golden arrow of destruction.
"Shua——"
The golden arrow of destruction turned into a golden beam of light, traveled hundreds of miles, and rushed towards Zhang Ruochen at a hundred times the speed of sound.
Zhang Ruochen was trying his best to decipher the time inscriptions, and found that the golden arrow of destruction was coming, and it was too late to resist it, so he had to activate the amulet on his body.
"Bang bang."
The amulet was broken into dozens of pieces in succession before the attack power of the golden arrow of destruction was neutralized.
After the Holy Arrow Marquis retracted the Golden Arrow of Destruction, his eyes darkened and he roared: "Half of the Marquis will remain here and continue to guard here. The rest of the Marquis will follow me to the east of the Holy Mountain to hunt down the creatures in the Heavenly Realm."
The saints of the Seven Realms of Shatuo also discovered changes in the ninety-nine holy mountains. Some of the great figures in the holy realms flew to high altitudes and looked at the holy mountain where the wall of merits and deeds was located.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen, Su Qingling, and Princess Rakshasa, all the saints were slightly startled.
How did they get through the blockade of the Rakshasa clan and reach the bottom of the holy mountain where the merit book wall is located?
