At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

It was really a fluke that he was able to break through in one fell swoop this time. He did not expect that he could break through to the seventh level of Sainthood in just a few years.

"Have you reached the seventh level of the Saint? So, what about leaving the realm of overcoming tribulation? Will there also be a thunder tribulation coming? How should I overcome the tribulation?"

Lin Chen murmured and began to think.

He is still short of three Heavenly Tribulation Pills. He is afraid that he will not be able to temper his body with the help of Heavenly Tribulation, so he can only take one step at a time and wait until he finds the remaining medicinal materials before he can attack the Tribulation Realm!

His goal is to reach the False God Realm, not the Saint Realm.

Lin Chen walked out of the room and found a pavilion beside the rockery in the center of the courtyard. Inside the pavilion, there was a person standing quietly with his hands on his back, as if he was integrated with the entire courtyard, ethereal and proud.

"Empress?" Lin Chen was startled. He didn't expect that the Empress would be waiting for him here.

The empress turned and looked at Lin Chen, with a cold expression on her face, and said, "You are finally out of seclusion. I just got the news that you are going to duel with the prince of our Tianque Dynasty?"

"Yes. I promised my mother that I would seek justice for her." Lin Chen nodded.

The empress asked calmly: "Are you sure you can beat him?"

Lin Chen smiled and said: "I dare not say that I can beat him, but I believe that I can definitely make him suffer."

The Empress frowned and said, "He has now reached the peak of Tongtian Realm, and as far as I know, he has also learned the 'Heavenly Wind Palm'. Are you sure you can beat him?"

"How would you know if you haven't tried it?"

Lin Chen had a confident smile on his face.

"It's good that you have confidence. But don't forget that there is a gap between you and him, and the gap is not small. There is no need for you to fight to the death with him!"

The empress said in a serious tone, "You are the hope for the rise of our Tianque Dynasty. You may be able to ascend to the Supreme Realm in the future, and even have the opportunity to aspire to the Immortal Realm and become the first among thousands of powerful people! Moreover, with your current talent, the future will It will be much more spacious than it is now.”

Lin Chen shook his head with a firm tone.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Empress Jiuxuan nodded.

She was not worried about Lin Chen's safety, but she was worried that Lin Chen would be harmed if he acted recklessly.

"Thank you." Lin Chen felt warm in his heart.

Empress Jiuxuan had a hint of apology on her face: "However, I am not here to help you, but for the peace of the Tianque Dynasty! This time, Moluo City and Nether Palace colluded to overthrow our entire Tianque Dynasty. As the Tianque Dynasty, you People must be in the same boat as us!”

Lin Chen was stunned.

It turns out that it was because of this that she was willing to accompany him to provoke the prince! Lin Chen was a little embarrassed.

He touched his nose and said with a smile: "Well, since Her Majesty the Empress has said so, I will definitely not refuse."

The two walked out of the courtyard and flew towards the palace. Half an hour later, they appeared in front of the palace.

The palace was heavily guarded, and Lin Chen directly released his pressure and suppressed them to the ground.

"Who dares to break into the palace?"

Two teams of guards came running from a distance. When the leader saw Lin Chen, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "See your majesty."

Then, they looked at Lin Chen again, with doubts on their faces.

"Who is this person? I seem to have never heard of him? Could it be that he is His Majesty's new disciple?"

"I guess so. Didn't you see the sign hanging on his waist, 'Imperial Medical Pavilion'! Hehe, His Majesty's medical skills are superb. Even the doctors from the Imperial Medical Pavilion come to consult with Your Majesty every once in a while! Your Majesty It’s not surprising to accept this guy as your disciple!”

…

Lin Chen ignored the people whispering around him, looked at the magnificent building in front of him, and asked, "I want to see your empress!"

"Her Majesty the Empress has an order that no one is allowed to see her!" the commander said hesitantly.

Lin Chen frowned and said, "Why don't you see me?"

"This, this subordinate doesn't know." The commander shook his head.

"roll!"

Lin Chen took a sip of spiritual spring water and spit out one word.

The commander's face turned red and he glared at Lin Chen angrily: "Who are you? Why should I get out?"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes, stared at him, and said indifferently: "Just because this is the palace of the Tianque Dynasty, and I am the national counselor of your Tianque Dynasty! Do you think you are qualified to talk to me?"

The commander was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "National Master, spare your life! It's the villain who made the mistake!"

With a puff, he knelt down at Lin Chen's feet.

Lin Chen said: "Go and report to your empress that the most beautiful woman in Tianyan Continent, Empress Jiuxuan of Tianque Dynasty, invited me to the palace and she wants to discuss something with me."

The commander hurriedly got up and ran to report to Empress Jiuxuan.

After a while, Empress Jiuxuan came out and said to Lin Chen: "Come in with me!"

After saying that, she walked forward.

Lin Chen followed quickly.

Lin Chen followed the empress and came to a huge hall.

At this time, the empress sat above and Lin Chen stood below.

The empress looked at him and said: "I also have a share in this competition to recruit brides. You can come with us."

Lin Chen was a little surprised and said, "Am I going too?"

Empress Jiuxuan nodded: "Yes, although you are only at the early stage of the Tao Shaping Realm, in terms of combat power, even at the peak of the Tao Shaping Realm, you may not be your opponent. Because of this, you go with us."

"Oh?" Lin Chen was a little surprised, but he soon understood that although his strength was only at the early stage of the Tao Shaping Realm, his body skills were incredible. In addition, with "World Burning Heavenly Flame", "Bagua Reincarnation Palm" 》, fire dantian and other trump cards, even at the peak of the Tao Shaping Realm, there is still a fight

Power.

Calculated in this way, his combat power is already comparable to those in the middle stage of Hedao realm.

"Your Majesty is right." Next to him, an old man nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty has told me before that if you, Divine Doctor Lin, can represent the Tianque Dynasty in the martial arts competition, you will definitely win the martial arts competition for the Tianque Dynasty. First!"

The old man looked to be seventy or eighty years old, with a gray beard, wearing gray cloth robes, and carrying an iron sword on his back.

His name is Ye Yangyun, he is the old butler of the Empress, and he is also very strong. He once killed a demon master at the Transformation Infant Realm level.

In Jiuxuan Kingdom, there are two strongest people, namely the Empress and Ye Yangyun.

As for Ye Yangyun, he is a strong man at the peak level of the Tao Shaping Realm, and can even compete with ordinary fifth-level saint masters.

Lin Chen heard this and nodded in agreement.

Anyway, he would have intervened in this matter sooner or later, and now the empress' suggestion saved him a lot of trouble.

Lin Chen said: "Your Majesty, when will we leave for Moluo State?"

The empress said: "Let's go now!"

"Uh... Okay." Lin Chen nodded and followed Empress Jiuxuan.

As the two walked along, many people looked at them, some were shocked, some were afraid, some were unwilling, and some were gloating...

However, none of them spoke.

The power of Empress Jiuxuan is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Who dares to disobey her orders?

After a stick of incense, the two arrived at the entrance of the palace.

"His Majesty!"

When the guard at the gate saw Empress Jiuxuan, he immediately knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"No gift."

Empress Jiuxuan waved her hands coldly, and then led Lin Chen into the palace.

Lin Chen took a look at the scenery of the palace. The palace was indeed majestic and majestic, but it was incomparable to the ancient Chinese palaces.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Lin Chen frowned slightly and felt a strong mental power envelope him.

He glanced at Empress Jiuxuan and saw that Empress Jiuxuan was still expressionless, obviously not targeting him intentionally. He murmured in his heart that it seemed that he had gone astray.

"What's going on? I'm actually locked by an invisible force? Moreover, the pressure this force gives me is no weaker than that of my father!"

The commander of the black-armored army who had been following Lin Chen also felt this power and couldn't help but be horrified to death.

At this time, Lin Chen suddenly stopped, looked at Empress Jiuxuan and said, "Did you do something to me?"

Empress Jiuxuan turned her head and said calmly: "It's whatever you think it is."

"In that case, I'll just leave. You can continue chatting." Lin Chen shrugged, turned and left, feeling like he was being teased.

"stop!"

Empress Jiuxuan shouted.

Lin Chen stopped.

Empress Jiuxuan said: "You are not allowed to leave, I need your help for something."

"Please tell me clearly first, what is it?" Lin Chen said.

"I want you to accompany me and protect my safety." Empress Jiuxuan's tone was calm, but revealed a hint of determination. She was really afraid that Lin Chen would take the opportunity to escape.

Lin Chen was stunned: "Are you worried that I abducted you?"

Empress Jiuxuan ignored him and continued: "Don't worry, you are the consort of the Tianque Dynasty and you will never suffer."

Hearing this, Lin Chen completely understood that Empress Jiuxuan was afraid that she would slip away.

Lin Chen's thoughts turned quickly, and after thinking for a while, a playful smile appeared on his face, and he nodded: "Okay! You want me to protect you, but I also have to find someone to protect me. I can't go alone. ?”

"This is simple, which guard do you want?" Empress Jiuxuan asked.

Lin Chen thought for a while, looked at the commander of the black armored army next to him, pointed at him and said: "You! It's you. From now on, protect my safety."

The commander of the black-armored army was stunned for a moment, then became furious: "Why me?"

Lin Chen pouted and said, "I don't know you, why should I let you protect me?"

Empress Jiuxuan said calmly: "Do you know how bold you were when you said these words just now?"

"Huh?" Lin Chen blinked with a confused expression.

He glanced at the commander of the black-armored army for a few times, shook his head and said: "I don't care how bold he is, anyway, I don't want to be with him. This guy has a lot of evil energy about him, and he doesn't look like a kind person. If I stay with him for a long time, I will get sick." of!"

The commander of the black armored army almost vomited blood, you are so angry, and your whole family is so angry.

Empress Jiuxuan looked at the commander of the Black Armored Army indifferently and said: "Lin Chen doesn't want to be in the same room with you. He doesn't trust you. So, from now on, you will stay with me. Otherwise, if he has any shortcomings, , I’ll just ask you!”

The commander of the black-armored army suddenly looked bitter. He knew that he had no choice, so he could only bow his head and say respectfully: "General, I will obey!"

Empress Jiuxuan turned and left.

"Lin Chen, let's go. I'll take you somewhere. I want you to do something for me." After Empress Jiuxuan walked away, the commander of the Black Armor Army said to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen said: "You want me to help you steal things? Why do you want me to steal things?"

The leader of the Black Armored Army was startled, then smiled bitterly and said, "I asked you to help me get the 'Ice Marrow' from the spirit stone veins."

"Oh?" Lin Chen looked confused: "What's the use?"

The leader of the Black Armored Army explained: "This 'Ice Marrow' can be used to repair the physique and quickly increase the cultivation level. It is said that after taking it, a person can break through a level."

Lin Chen's eyes showed joy. Although he had no shortage of spirit stones, it was like a timely help to him to make him stronger.

"Okay! Tell me the address, and then I'll go with you!" Lin Chen said with a smile.

The Black Armor Army Commander looked relieved and said, "Mr. Lin is indeed a straightforward person. Then I will tell you that the Devil Spirit Mountain Range where the Devil Spirit Valley is located is the Devil Spirit Mine. There are many spirit beasts there, and all kinds of spirit medicines are everywhere, which can be called a spirit medicine garden!"

The Devil Spirit Mine, as the name suggests, is a vein that produces Devil Spirit Crystals. It is the top spirit stone deposit in the Demon Abyss Continent.

In addition to being used by demon soldiers and demon generals, this kind of spirit stone deposit also has many precious spirit stones suitable for practitioners to absorb, such as the top-grade fire attribute spirit stones that Lin Chen needs.

Ordinary people in the Demon Abyss Continent generally rarely use Devil Spirit Crystals.

Because the energy contained in the magic crystal is huge, even for an ordinary warrior, the energy of a magic crystal is estimated to be enough to equal his one month of practice, so the magic crystal is basically occupied by the demon sect.

Moreover, the demon sects often fight each other to seize each other's magic crystals. Therefore, the value of a magic crystal is thousands of times higher than that of spirit stones.

This kind of mineral vein is often occupied by the demon sect, and some casual cultivators or people who come to explore treasures alone will choose to sneak in quietly and snatch the magic crystal.

As for after the snatch, will they run away? Or stay here and continue to dig for spirit stones?

The answer is no.

Because the tracking skills of the demon sect are very powerful, they can be found at the slightest sign of trouble. Unless they hide, they will definitely die.

After listening to the words of the leader of the black armor army, Lin Chen nodded and said: "I already know what you said. You don't have to follow me anymore, so as not to expose your identity!"

Hearing this, the leader of the black armor army frowned and looked at Lin Chen, obviously disagreeing with Lin Chen's words.

Although he was only at the fifth level of the Saint Realm, his strength was not considered strong among the demon sects. However, his induction was surprisingly sharp. Lin Chen's cultivation was two levels weaker than his, but he could still detect Lin Chen's cultivation, which had not even reached the initial stage of the Saint Realm, and even the Void God Realm.

Such a cultivation level could not pose any threat to him at all.

However, the Nine Mysterious Empress said, "You can rest in this palace. You are not allowed to go out without my permission! If you annoy me, I will chop you directly, and you can't blame anyone!"

The Black Armor Army Commander was frightened and his face turned pale. He hurriedly said, "I obey your order!"

He bowed to Lin Chen and then retreated.

After the Black Armor Army Commander left, Lin Chen looked at the Nine Mysterious Empress and asked, "Why, is this guy important to you? I feel like you are taking special care of him?"

The Nine Mysterious Empress nodded and said, "He is my father's subordinate. He once saved my life."

As she spoke, her eyes flickered slightly as she looked at Lin Chen, and she didn't know what she remembered.

"Okay. Let's go now." The Nine Mysterious Empress walked out of the palace first and flew out of the castle.

"Go? Where to?" Lin Chen was stunned and hurriedly chased after her.

"To pick the 'Ice Marrow'." The Nine Mysterious Empress said as a matter of course.

Seeing the Nine Mysterious Empress's attitude, Lin Chen rolled his eyes and said, "My aunt, you are the daughter of the leader of the Holy Flame Sect. Do you want to steal the spiritual stone vein?"

The Nine Mysterious Empress said as a matter of course: "Just because I am the daughter of the leader does not mean that I have to obey the rules. What should I do is what should I do!"

"Uh..." Lin Chen was stunned for a while and didn't know what to say.

The Nine Mysterious Empress stopped, glanced at Lin Chen, and said, "Why, are you afraid of me?"
