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

Empress Jiuxuan's cheeks were slightly red, she rolled her eyes at him, and then said: "Is your injury okay? Recover quickly. I will take you back to the palace later. You are my consort, and this Jiuxuan Dynasty is ours. s home."

Lin Chen nodded, sat down cross-legged, and used the Holy Demon Devouring Heaven Creation Technique to absorb the surrounding aura of heaven and earth to recover from his injuries.

"Huh?"

After a while, Lin Chen opened his eyes and looked at his feet. He felt that there seemed to be a majestic spiritual energy underneath the ground, which cheered him up.

"The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is so rich, it's like a training cave!"

Hearing this, Empress Jiuxuan explained: "This is an formation that my father originally set up, called the 'Spirit Gathering Formation'. If you need spirit stones, just tell me and I will find them for you."

As she spoke, she took out a palm-sized jade tablet and handed it to Lin Chen, saying: "This is the spirit-gathering jade tablet, which can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here. If you encounter a bottleneck, just throw it into the spiritual lake. Come to At that time, your cultivation speed can be increased a hundred times. However, there is a limit to the number of times you can use it every day. Otherwise, I would not be willing to give it to others."

"Okay!" Lin Chen nodded and took the jade token.

Afterwards, he continued to close his eyes and perform the Holy Demon Devouring Heaven Creation Technique, frantically absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to replenish his own consumption.

Soon, his injuries healed, and his strength increased slightly.

However, Lin Chen was not in a hurry to take action because he found that besides him and the Jiuxuan Empress, there seemed to be several other auras hidden in the Jiuxuan Villa.

Although those auras have all reached the seventh realm of sainthood and are obviously warriors, their strength is far weaker than that of the Jiuxuan Empress.

"Could it be that Empress Jiuxuan sent her here to protect her safety?" Lin Chen thought to himself.

He guessed that this was the case, otherwise, it would have been impossible for Empress Jiuxuan to come to the God's Domain alone and still be hunted down.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lin Chen to notice that three black figures jumped from outside the courtyard wall into the small building where Empress Jiuxuan lived.

Lin Chen sneered and did not stand up immediately.

Since the Jiu Xuan Empress dared to use herself as a shield, she must have someone to rely on. He wanted to see what tricks the Jiu Xuan Empress was going to play.

"Princess, why are you here? Your Majesty has ordered you not to run anywhere to avoid danger!"

The people who entered the room were two burly men, both of whom were in the fifth realm of sainthood. When they saw Empress Jiuxuan, they were busy saluting.

Empress Jiuxuan frowned and said, "I have something to ask you. Where did the two people outside just now go? Why can't I feel their traces all of a sudden?"

"Report to Princess, we don't know. We have been guarding the door and haven't noticed anything unusual." One of the big men shook his head.

"Something's wrong!"

Empress Jiuxuan looked puzzled and said: "They will never disappear out of thin air, unless... they are caught!"

As she spoke, her tone turned cold.

The two big men were startled, and one of them hesitated and said: "Princess, do you suspect that there are other forces lurking in the Jiuxuan Dynasty?"

"Hmph! Apart from this, what else can there be? Divine Prison Tower, Xuanyuan Spear, some special elixirs, plus some strange things... Together, the value of these treasures is definitely far higher than that of ninth-grade spiritual weapons. ”

Empress Jiuxuan snorted coldly and said, "I'm going to find them now!"

"Your Highness, please don't be impulsive!"

The two big men were startled. They were originally responsible for protecting the Jiu Xuan Empress and did not know the true identity of the Jiu Xuan Empress.

At this moment, seeing that Empress Jiuxuan seemed to be going to break into the palace, she couldn't help but panic, and quickly tried to dissuade her:

"Princess, don't be stupid! The current palace is no longer the same as before! Moreover, the entire Jiuxuan Dynasty has probably been infiltrated by the forces of the Divine Prison Pavilion. If you enter the palace rashly, you may be in serious danger. !" A big man persuaded with a face full of anxiety.

Although they are loyal to the Jiuxuan Dynasty, they do not want to see the princess die. After all, the Jiuxuan Empress is the only heir. Once something happens to her, the Jiuxuan Dynasty will basically be finished!

Empress Jiuxuan's expression changed and she calmed down. She knew that she was indeed not suitable to risk entering the palace.

When Lin Chen heard this, he understood a little bit.

The Jiuxuan Dynasty was actually infiltrated!

Then, he can't expose himself even more now.

The people in the Jiuxuan Dynasty probably thought that he was dead, and maybe they were trying to find him!

"Then what should I do? Am I going to stay here forever?" Empress Jiuxuan said angrily as she looked at the two guards.

These two people are masters at the level of the Sixth Saint Realm. Logically speaking, they have nothing to fear from anyone. Unfortunately, the Jiuxuan Dynasty has now been completely controlled by the Divine Prison Pavilion.

Moreover, there is a mysterious Huangfu Yan.

Empress Jiuxuan knew that all this was caused by Lin Chen, and now that Lin Chen hadn't woken up yet, she couldn't do much to help.

Therefore, she only hoped that Lin Chen would wake up soon so that she could escape with Lin Chen.

Lin Chen's mind started spinning rapidly, and many thoughts came to his mind.

"Princess, have you forgotten? The emperor's old man once left a will, asking us to protect your life until he comes back from resurrection!" said the big man on the left.

"Yes! My father did leave me a will."

Empress Jiuxuan suddenly understood and felt relieved. She believed that with this will, no matter how powerful the Divine Prison Pavilion was, they would never dare to touch her.

She said, "Okay, I'll leave with you now!"

While she was talking, she had already walked to the bed in the room, lifted the bed board, and crawled under the bed.

Then, the bed board closed automatically.

After a while, the Nine Mysterious Empress came out from under the bed, changed her clothes, put on a veil to cover her face, and followed the two big men out of the small building.

Lin Chen looked at the curtain under the bed, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that this little girl has something interesting on her body. She actually has a teleportation array?"

He was surprised. This kind of array was extremely rare even in the world of cultivation. He didn't expect that this little girl also had one.

Lin Chen didn't know what happened inside the Nine Mysterious Dynasty, but he was not worried about the safety of the Nine Mysterious Empress, because he had already felt that the two big men had stopped chasing.

Obviously, after being taught a lesson by him, they temporarily restrained their edge.

This is actually a good thing for Lin Chen, because he can use the Nine Mysterious Empress to explore the secrets of his body and how to get rid of that strange energy.

As for whether the Nine Mysterious Empress would betray him, Lin Chen didn't take it to heart at all. He didn't think that the Nine Mysterious Empress would really dare to kill him.

After all, she still needs to rely on the "Bone Shaping and Yuan Shaping Pill" she refined to restore her strength.

Not long after, Lin Chen and the Nine Mysterious Empress arrived at the cliff outside the Nine Mysterious City.

Standing on the cliff, overlooking the magnificent scene below, the Nine Mysterious Empress narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes were full of light, and I don't know what she was thinking.

After a few minutes, she said: "You two stay here. Without the permission of this emperor, no one is allowed to set foot here."

"I obey your order!"

The two of them took the order.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh...

The Nine Mysterious Empress' figure flashed, and in the blink of an eye, she turned into more than a dozen phantoms and disappeared.

The two opened their mouths in a daze, then their faces became serious and they began to talk to each other at a very fast speed.

"The Nine Profound Empress... is actually much stronger than before!"

"It should be because she swallowed the 'Jade Spirit Grass', and her strength has increased a lot, right? So, she is getting closer and closer to the Soul Shaping Realm, and even succeeded in breaking through!"

"Yes! Now her combat power has far exceeded that of ordinary Saint Seven Realm powerhouses, and is even comparable to ordinary Saint Eight Realm powerhouses! With this strength, plus the Jade Spirit Grass, it should not be a problem to break through to the Soul Shaping Realm!"

"That may not be the case. It is said that the medicinal properties of this 'Jade Spirit Grass' are very strong. If you take it rashly, not only will you fail to break through, but you may also end up exploding and dying."

"So... is she just giving up?"

"Alas! That's the only way. After all, the Divine Prison Pavilion now controls the Nine Profound Dynasty. If she really wants to save the royal family, she must We must first take down the Godly Prison Pavilion, otherwise, it will be useless! "

...

Lin Chen's ears moved slightly, listening to the discussion of the two, frowned and said: "This 'Jade Spirit Grass' can also break through the bottleneck? This thing is still a bit strange!"

"Well, this 'Jade Spirit Grass' was obtained by His Majesty the Emperor from a cave, and we don't know its specific function. However, it is said to be a spiritual material that helps the strong people in the Soul Shaping Realm to practice. In other words, if you take this 'Jade Spirit Grass', even if it can't directly allow an ordinary person to advance to the Soul Shaping Realm, it can also increase some life span, at least add about 300 years of life span, for ordinary people, it is already a heaven-defying treasure. "

"So precious? In order to break through the Soul Shaping Realm, can the Nine Mysterious Queen even abandon her own brother?" Lin Chen was a little surprised.

"Uh." The Nine Mysterious Empress was stunned upon hearing this, her cheeks flushed, she glanced at Lin Chen awkwardly, and said, "Well... I don't quite understand, maybe it's for a breakthrough?"

She almost blurted out that this 'Jade Spirit Grass' was originally picked for Lin Chen, but she changed her mind when the words came to her mouth.

Lin Chen shook his head when he saw this, and was too lazy to delve into these things, saying: "Since this 'Jade Spirit Grass' has this effect, then I will eat it for you first. Then, I will accompany you to save your family."

"What? You said you were going to eat this 'Jade Spirit Grass' for me?" The Nine Mysterious Empress widened her eyes, almost suspecting that she had heard it wrong.

Lin Chen rolled his eyes and thought, how could this woman be so stupid, but still said: "Yes, I just need to break through, so I ate this 'Jade Spirit Grass'."

The face of the Nine Mysterious Empress changed, and finally gritted her teeth and said: "Okay! Since you are willing to sacrifice yourself to help me break through, then even if I risk my life, I will repay you!"

After that, the Nine Mysterious Empress jumped off the cliff first.

Although there is a deep abyss below the cliff, for an existence like Lin Chen, this height is not worth mentioning at all.

Lin Chen jumped down with him. He did not circulate his true energy to resist the cold air around him. He was very sure that even if he fell from a height of a thousand meters, he would not be hurt.

Soon, the two fell to the bottom of the valley, and Lin Chen continued to move forward with the Nine Mysterious Empress.

Along the way, they encountered many poisonous insects and beasts. These poisonous insects and beasts were just low-level beasts and posed no threat to Lin Chen.

The Nine Mysterious Empress was nervous. She was seriously injured and had a weak constitution. At this moment, she felt that she might die at any time.

Seeing this, Lin Chen smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

"Yeah." The Nine Mysterious Queen looked at Lin Chen beside her, her heartbeat quickening.

This feeling of being alone with the one you love is wonderful.

After a while, the two stopped under a tree.

The Nine Mysterious Queen pointed to the front and said: "The rock wall in front is where the Jade Spirit Flower is hidden!"

"You stay here and don't let anyone get close. I'll go get the Jade Spirit Flower."

Lin Chen took out the longbow and arrows, gave them to one of them, and asked the other to wait here.

This man was named Chen Wude. He was a small commander of the Nine Mysterious Army. He was a strong man who had entered the fifth realm of saints and was well-known throughout the Tianming Continent.
