Zhang Ruochen did not want to see the old clan emperor who was in a strange state, so shortly after entering the city, he quietly left Yuan Jieyi's divine world and plunged into the ancient and abandoned city of eternal darkness.
The darkness swallowed everything, like black molten iron, affecting mental strength and vision, and even space was severely suppressed.
Of course, with Zhang Ruochen's current level of cultivation, these effects on him are minimal.
Like a night traveler, he calmly shuttles between the corpses of gods the size of mountains.
…
This city has existed for countless millions of years, and has stood from ancient times to the present. It can be said that it is even more precious than the body of the half-ancestor. If anyone can collect it, it may be able to be refined into a strange artifact.
However, even with Tianmu's original cultivation level of Tianzun level, he couldn't do it.
This abandoned city has the footprints and traces left by generations of ancestors and deities from ancient times to the present, as well as the methods and secret powers they left behind. If the Nine-Death Emperor had not voluntarily given up his protection, the ancient creatures would not have been able to occupy it so easily.
Zhang Ruochen released Cang Jue and asked him to go to Yan Wushen and tell Yuzhuan and Nandi the secrets of the Tianji clan.
This is Zhang Ruochen's test of Yan Wushen to see if he will really go all out to find the Nightmare Land and rescue the Xinghai fishermen.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen sensed a subtle change in the heavens and looked towards the gate where Yuan Jie entered the city just now, his eyes were quite confused.
This wisp of heavenly change was extremely subtle, and Zhang Ruochen could only sense it because Wuji was invisible and Taiji was boundless, covering the sky and the earth.
"What exactly did Yuzhuan and Tianji Clan Emperor do?"
Everything was normal. The monks patrolling the ancient and abandoned city showed no unusual movements.
Jade Seal can fight against the God of Raging Sky, and his combat power is much better than Zhang Ruochen. Zhang Ruochen did not release his mental power to explore the specific situation, not wanting to face him head-on in an ancient and abandoned city.
"Huh!"
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen's eyes narrowed and he sensed a wisp of Chi Kunlun's aura.
Chi Yao, who was sitting cross-legged in Zhang Ruochen's divine world, also sensed it and stood up slowly, saying: "It's Kunlun's breath! It seems that the other party has already seen through Yuan Jieyi and guessed that the holy musician was transformed from you. This
I lured you there on purpose."
Zhang Ruochen's face was calm, looking at the watery night, and said: "This Great Light is really not to be underestimated. It's like nothing can be hidden from him. Is this how terrifying the ancestor is? The remnant soul left behind is so powerful.
situation."
In terms of cultivation and combat power, Great Light may be a little weaker than the remnant soul of the Great Demon God (Bone Yama) who has returned to ten dynasties, but in terms of divine soul perception, it is still above the remnant soul of the Great Demon God.
As for Avya, although the remnant soul of the ancestor has returned, the time she came to this era is too short, and there is a huge gap in combat power with these people. It depends on whether she can comprehend the "Immortal Curse" and fuse the corpse of her ancestor from her previous life.
If it succeeds, it will definitely demonstrate the extraordinary power of the ancestor.
Chi Yao's white Confucian clothes are spotless, with red lips and white teeth, like an extremely handsome scholar, and said: "Brother Chen, don't pay attention to him, Kunlun is practicing in the ancient nest of the gods."
"Yes, Kunlun is practicing in the Ancient Divine Nest, but he deliberately released a ray of Kunlun's aura, obviously because he wanted to see me. If I avoid seeing him, won't I be looked down upon by others?" Zhang Ruochen said.
The voice of Wuwo Lamp sounded: "Yes, what are you afraid of? A strong person should have the demeanor of a strong person. He is not a real Heavenly Lord, so what if you touch him?"
Chi Yao guessed what Zhang Ruochen was thinking and said, "Are you still doubting Yan Wushen?"
Zhang Ruochen nodded: "It is understandable that Yuzhuan can sense or guess that I am hiding in the divine world of Yuan Jieyi. But, how could he know that the holy musician was transformed from me? In the starry sky, he and I were just in a hurry
It’s just a one-time meeting. If I don’t figure this out today, I will definitely suffer a big loss in the future.”
…
Jade Seal stood by a river of sticky black blood, leaning on a blue boulder, dragging a faint ball of soul fire in his palm.
The black blood river is wide, more than 100 meters.
Such rivers formed by the blood of ancient corpses can be found everywhere in ancient and abandoned cities.
The wind blew on the river, but it made no ripples.
Jade Zhuan's hair swayed, and a smile appeared in his amber-like crystal eyes. He put away the soul fire in his palms, as if talking to himself: "Chi Kunlun is right, his father is a hero. He works calmly.
, but also dare to take risks, only such people can achieve great things!"
"With all my virtues and abilities, how can I dare to receive such praise from the Great Light?"
Like a ghost, Zhang Ruochen appeared silently ten feet away behind Yuzhuan. His figure was straight and upright, like a magic needle fixed in time and space, unmoving.
It is obvious that he has not released his divine power, but his aura is not inferior to that of the jade seal.
Obviously, Yuzhuan met Chi Kunlun when he was practicing in Nightmare.
With his cultivation level, it is not difficult to take away a wisp of Chi Kunlun's soul fire without anyone noticing.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Your Excellency has been plotting against me for a long time, so you took away a wisp of Chi Kunlun's soul fire?"
"That's right!"
Yuzhuan admitted it frankly and said: "You took away a ray of his soul fire, but also guided him to practice for a period of time. You didn't wrong him, right?"
"It is his chance to receive guidance from the Great Light."
Zhang Ruochen asked: "How did you know that I am in the ancient and abandoned city?"
Yuzhuan laughed heartily: "We are all smart people, why bother asking such stupid questions."
"Okay, let me change the question! How do you know that the holy musician was transformed from me?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan said: "Because the real holy musician is dead! Bone Yama told me about this matter. Emperor Kuiliang used this secret to borrow the source of life from him."
"And most of Kui Liang Huang's mental power ideas have fallen into your hands. In the world, there are not many people with perfect mental power. You are the only one who can play the role of Kui Liang Huang!"
"That's reasonable." Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan said: "Do you think I made it up?"
"I just feel that with your level of cultivation, there is no need to explain it to me so clearly. The more you explain, the more you are covering up." Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan walked out from behind the blue boulder, looked at Zhang Ruochen head-on, and said, "I'll explain, because I value you as an opponent. At the same time, I also want to temporarily form an alliance with you to do something big."
"An alliance? You don't seem to understand me at all." Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan said: "I made this decision because I understand you. There are no eternal enemies in the world. If you promise me this, I can promise you to help you rescue the Xinghai fishermen. Isn't that why you came to the lower world?
Something? I can assure you that without my help, you will never find the nightmare land."
Zhang Ruochen smiled: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
The jade seal's expression became serious and he said: "Enter Chaotian Tower and get the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mirror."
Zhang Ruochen had heard of the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mirror, but suppressed his curiosity and said, "With your cultivation level, why do you need my help?"
Yuzhuan said: "I am happy to admit these words nine hundred years ago. However, after coming to the lower realm, I entered Chaotian Palace once, arrived at Qingxu Hall, and saw the words left by the Fudo Ming King."
Those who cherish their lives will stop here."
"Can these seven words scare you?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan said: "I know very well how powerful an ancestor is, and he can leave such words. Of course I have to listen to your advice. It is not easy for people to live in this life, and mortals still cherish their lives."
"Do you think I can take you into the depths of Chaotian Que?" Zhang Ruochen said.
The jade seal said: "Since the Fudo Ming King has left these seven words, it means that he has entered the depths of Chaotian Palace. Chaotian Palace is peaceful so far, which means that all the evil inside has been suppressed by the power he left behind! You
He is a descendant of the great Lord Fudo Mingou, so there should be a way to borrow the power he left inside. It will definitely be much safer to invite you to accompany us."
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said: "But I don't feel safe! If you get the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mirror, will you still regard me as an ally?"
Yuzhuan said: "To do big things, you need to take risks. You, Zhang Ruochen, are not an ordinary person. It will be easy for me to defeat you, but I am really not sure about killing you."
"What I mean is, before entering Chaotian Que, should we rescue the Xinghai fishermen first?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan said: "This is natural! So, you agreed?"
"Your Excellency is willing to betray Bone Yama and let go of the Xinghai fishermen, so what if I take a risk?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan corrected: "You can't say that, this is not a betrayal! Because, from the beginning to the end, he and I just used each other. I promised him that I will still do it after I come out of Chaotianque. When the time comes,
, our alliance has come to an end!"
"I love your honesty!"
Zhang Ruochen said again: "Since we are already allies, maybe you can tell me where the mysterious sword cultivator is?"
Yuzhuan seemed to really regard Zhang Ruochen as a close friend, and said in a gentle tone: "Others have higher cultivation than me, how do I know where he is? Of course, you can rest assured that he is not in the ancient and abandoned city. Otherwise, we will definitely
I will use extreme methods to force you to enter Chaotian Palace to lead the way instead of forming an alliance. Besides, if he knows about the Six Paths of Reincarnation Mirror, how can I still be part of it?"
"That sword cultivator's biggest interest is to provoke a war between the twelve ancient tribes and the hell world. If you prevent this war, he will definitely find another way, and the Kagura Master has given him a big gift to help him
A helping hand. There is only so much I can say!"
Zhang Ruochen's expression suddenly changed and he said: "Yuan Sheng!"
Yuzhuan said meaningfully: "In the final analysis, the reason why this war did not start is because the hatred between the twelve ancient tribes and the hell world is not deep enough. Interest is the culprit that caused the war, and emotions are the fuse.
, this has been the case in wars since ancient times. If a clan emperor died in the hell realm, wouldn’t this hatred cease?"
Zhang Ruochen had to admit that what the jade seal said had a certain truth to it. His originally calm state of mind finally had ripples and then expanded into a stormy sea.
Yu Zhuan shook his head and said, "It's too late for you to go back now!"
"Who said I want to go back?" Zhang Ruochen said.
Yuzhuan showed a strange expression and was stopped by Zhang Ruochen's words.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Tianmu is on the defense line of the hell realm. She knows that Yuan Sheng is my fiancée and will not sit idly by. It is even more impossible for the World Destroyer to use this as a trigger to kill Yuan Sheng."
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that a person of Yuzhuan's level would not easily reveal more information.
Once it is leaked, there must be a purpose.
He wanted to use Zhang Ruochen's reaction to further confirm whether Tianmu had really left the defense line of the hell realm, and also to confirm whether Xu Tian had reached the Tianzun level.
With these two people on the defensive line, plus the God of Nu Tian who has a close relationship with Zhang Ruochen, it will be extremely difficult for the mysterious swordsman to kill Yuan Sheng within the defensive line.
After all, Yuan Sheng is immortal and immeasurable, not an ordinary person.
Yuzhuan dared to sneak attack on the Emperor of Tianji Clan outside the ancient and abandoned city, but it was just because there was no Tianzun class in the city.
If Yuzhuan really catches the flaw, he will probably use his spiritual message to send out the message immediately. After they enter Chaotian Palace, a war will probably break out.
Zhang Ruochen changed the subject and said: "Where is the Emperor of the Tianji Clan? I sensed his aura on your body?"
The jade seal opened his palm, and the palm was like a small world, with rays of light and order, twisted into chains, and imprisoned the emperor of the Tianji clan.
The Emperor of the Tianji Clan sat cross-legged, with all fourteen eyes closed tightly, as if he were petrified, motionless.
"He belongs to the Kagura Master! The Kagura Master is a powerful person, and he is quite weird, making it hard for people to see through. In order to cause unnecessary trouble, we can only suppress him first."
Zhang Ruochen's heart was filled with fear. The emperor of the Tianji Clan was in the early stage of Immortal Boundless. Although the jade seal was a sneak attack, it was still a bit scary to suppress an Immortal Boundless silently.
You must be cautious when working with them.
Zhang Ruochen said: "So, the Nightmare Land is not hidden in the Tianji Clan?"
"Let me tell you quietly, Nightmare is hidden in Baican Ridge. You can summon Yan Wushen now. With his ability and the power of the ancient Shen's Nest, as long as Nightmare is known where he is, he can definitely rescue Xinghai Fishing
"Who?" Yuzhuan said.
I have to say that Yuzhuan is a very charming man, not only because of his handsome appearance, but also because of his confidence that he knows everything.
The more this happened, the more Zhang Ruochen felt danger and heavy pressure.
This is a formidable enemy!
That's right, they are enemies, not opponents.
Because the jade seal will definitely kill him and take away the Jiuding from him.
Zhang Ruochen was very aware of this.
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said: "According to what Brother Yuzhuan said, doesn't it mean that we have to wait a little longer before we can enter Chaotian Tower?"
"Of course we have to wait. The emperor of the Tianji Clan and I came to the ancient and abandoned city, but we were ordered by the divine musician. One was to take over Yuan Suyin to guard the abandoned city, and the other was to find out whether the sacred musician was hiding in Yuanjie.
One’s divine world needs to be decorated, right?”
Immediately afterwards, Yuzhuan said again: "By the way, I also invited an ally. Calculating the time, he should be arriving soon! You can help me receive him. Anyway, you are old acquaintances. If you want to send a message to Yuan Sheng, you have to
Hurry, maybe it's still too late."
Zhang Ruochen watched the jade seal leave and disappear into the darkness. He seemed to be talking to himself: "This person is very smart, but his weaknesses are also obvious. Like other remnant souls of the ancestors, he is too confident!"
Zhang Ruochen said this to encourage himself to always be vigilant and not to be too smart.
"Confidence is an advantage; being too confident is arrogance."
Chi Yao added: "In my opinion, he has another weakness. He is willing to sell out anything for his own benefit. This kind of person is destined to have no true allies. He may be invincible in good times, but he will be invincible in bad times."
Zhang Ruochen was really not afraid of the jade seal script given by Tian Lao, and he happened to want to borrow his power to enter Chaotian Palace.
