Cataclysm King

Ji Xun has never seen Nan Jing so sad.

In his impression, this girl with a round head always had an innocent smile on her face.

Even when faced with hardship, she seemed heartless and always faced it optimistically.

But this time, the news Ji Xun brought back made the girl burst into tears.

Nan Jing was tired from crying and seemed to have matured a lot in an instant. She just said "Sorry, I have to take a rest" and left silently.

Ji Xun and Chujiu didn't say much.

There are some things that no one else can help with.

Nan Jing left and locked himself in the room.

Peacock prefers sunny places, and she fell in love with this manor. There was no need to keep her human form here, she transformed into the form of a monster, turned into a beautiful white peacock, and went to leisurely bask in the sun by the small lake in the manor.

The two elves were instinctively happy for beautiful things. After asking Ji Xun, they also went to play happily on the grass with the peacock.

Like two rays of seven-colored rainbows fluttering on the turf, the elemental particles throughout the manor became active.

Ji Xun and Chujiu continued to wander around the castle, chatting while walking.

Chujiu's temperament is inherently talkative, but without Miss Nan Jing, a talkative lady, it seems that a lot of joy has suddenly disappeared.

But the atmosphere was not awkward.

The two of them walked in the corridor of the castle, even if they didn't talk, they felt good.

Not long after, the two reached the observation tower at the highest point of the castle.

They leaned on the gray stone battlements and overlooked the manor in front of them.

There are many people in the manor. The stonemasons are carving the sculptures in the manor, the gardeners are pruning the manor, the farmers are cultivating the land, and the textile workers are weaving. The curious children are hiding in the stables, secretly watching the sudden bird in the garden. A beautiful white peacock appears.

The manor is a busy and beautiful scene.

The breeze blew on their faces, and the two of them quietly blew in the sun and enjoyed the leisure.

Suddenly, the breeze lifted a strand of silver hair between Chujiu's forehead, and that beautiful side face flashed in Ji Xun's peripheral vision, and he spoke, "How are you doing lately?"

Chujiu knew what his old friend was going to ask, so he explained his current situation clearly in two sentences: "I just entered the eighth level. I plan to go to the Eastern Wasteland recently."

"oh?"

Ji Xun glanced at her, not too surprised.

The Rebel Dragon Army and the [Dynasty Canonization Secret Code] strengthened Chujiu's royal destiny, as well as the inheritance of Augustus's ancestral mausoleum. It is not surprising that she can reach the eighth level so quickly.

But hearing that Chujiu was going to Donghuang, Ji Xun also knew what she was going to do.

The Oran Royal Court in the Eastern Wasteland is the continuation of the Talon Empire. Not only is Chujiu the heir to the Augustus orthodox royal family, it is also time for her brother who usurped power and forced her mother to death to settle the feud.

Chujiu thought for a while and asked, "What about you? Is your trip to the Southern Continent going well?"

Although we had talked about the changes in the Southern Continent before, this was about Ji Xun's personal situation.

Ji Xun also said concisely and comprehensively: "I have successfully understood the domain and have been promoted to the seventh level. This time, I also want to observe the [Great Emperor's Stone Tablet] and then start preparing to advance to the eighth level."

There is no need to explain much between the two, just a few words can make it clear.

Chujiu heard that the coldness between his brows seemed to be relieved, and said calmly: "You are still the same as before, you have changed a lot every time I see you."

"hehe."

Ji Xun smiled noncommittally.

My promotion speed is indeed very fast, but it depends on who I compare with.

In front of this old friend, it doesn't count.

Chujiu asked again: "By the way, have you found the sequence that suits you? If not, I can help you go to the treasure house and take a look."

Ji Xun: "I found it. The Royal Academy of Airel was destroyed before, and a large number of treasures were lost among the people. I happened to find a promotion sequence that suits me very well."

During the riots in Djinn City, a large number of royal academy treasures were lost among the people, including various versions of the fifty-two demon god sequence promotion career cards collected by the empire.

In the end, most of the treasures were collected by large and wealthy chambers of commerce.

Ji Xun also took advantage of the chaos to intercept the treasure troves of several chambers of commerce.

He and Ivan could both touch and touch the treasure troves that originally required great effort to open.

As a result, a large amount of treasures were obtained.

In the past two months, I have been counting the loot. The amount is too large. Ji Xun also found several eighth-level professional cards that suit him as he wished.

After careful research, one of them was the most suitable, and I happened to have the materials in hand.

Hearing this, Chujiu also asked curiously: "A very suitable sequence?"

She knew Ji Xun's [JOKER] sequence, and it could be said that all fifty-two sequences could fit in. Of course, she was curious about which sequence she would be promoted to.

There is nothing to hide from an old friend, Ji Xun said directly: "The eighth-level professional card of the [Diamond J-Guo Shi] sequence [Guo Shi Wushuang]."

"oh?"

Chujiu thought about it for a moment, obviously knowing this sequence, and then asked curiously: "Have you understood the law of war?"

You must know that it is extremely difficult to understand every high-level law. This is why the number of card masters in the three high-level sequences of J, Q, and K is very small.

Usually, it is almost impossible for card masters who did not grow up from a small army to touch this sequence.

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded and said: "Previously in the Giant Spirit City, the 'Lord of Military Disasters Monliod' made a promotion ceremony for his God's Chosen Body. By chance, I also got a glimpse of the mystery of the laws of war."

After listening to the intense speech, Chujiu's eyes seemed to reflect some subtle emotions.

The experience of the two of them adventuring together before sounded in her mind.

A gleam of light flashed in her silver pupils, and she said: "Oh, in this case, it is indeed suitable for you. [Guoshi] is an extremely rare sequence of magic, material, and wisdom. It is indeed very strong. And it is also blessed by the luck of war."

"Yeah."

Ji Xun also nodded.

He has seven versions of [Guoshi Wushuang] in his hand.

But he did not choose the original template, but the revised version suitable for the Dragonborn.

Ji Xun has read the various classics of the Royal Academy. As long as the materials of this profession card are good enough, the effect is even better than the original template, and the upper limit is higher.

He just happened to have the materials in his hand.

The only trouble is that the conditions for refining are also very high.

Chujiu was very sensitive to the change in Ji Xun's expression, guessed what he was thinking, and said directly: "You can go find Master Merlin."

Hearing this, Ji Xun asked back in great surprise: "Master Merlin is here?"

Chujiu nodded: "Yes, in the laboratory. I went to the South Continent before, and after returning, I moved the laboratory to the Imperial Mausoleum."

Now the South Continent is in war, the East Wilderness is also in war, and the Old Continent is opening up wasteland everywhere.

Nowhere is safe, and only the Imperial Mausoleum is a little safe.

At least with the protection of the Imperial Mausoleum prohibition, card masters below the ninth level can only enter but not leave.

"Oh, that's convenient."

Ji Xun was still thinking about where to find Master Merlin to help with refining, but he didn't expect it to be here.

Thinking that Master Merlin is also a member of the "Illumination Hermitage", it can be understood.

Now it seems that this mysterious organization is the "shadow guardian" of the card master civilization. Although it is not the defender of Augustus's imperial power, the two are also inextricably linked.

During the dinner, Nan Jing still locked himself in the room.

Although no one came out, everyone in the castle felt a breath like the arrival of a demon.

That breath was very powerful and familiar.

Ji Xun had felt it on Nan Su Shang before.

He knew that it was Nan Jing receiving the power of the Nan family's inheritance.

The inheritance of the Nan family has always been a top secret passed down by a single person, and no one knows what happened.

But extreme sadness is sometimes not a bad thing for a transcendent of his realm.

Even Ji Xun and Chu Jiu did not disturb him.

After dinner, Ji Xun went to the underground laboratory in the castle alone.

Griffith is a ninth-level expert in the laws of space. This castle was designed by her. There is a huge mysterious space under the castle.

It's like a huge deep pit, with a dark stone staircase spiraling down along the stone wall.

After going down for several hundred meters, I gradually saw the light.

This is the most confidential place in the entire castle, with all kinds of restrictions everywhere.

Ji Xun certainly knows why.

Master Merlin's research is very special and dangerous.

The ban is to prevent external exploration and to prevent the threat inside the laboratory from spreading out.

The dim magic lamp illuminated a ten-meter range on the rock wall. After Ji Xun walked down, hundreds of black technology instruments in operation came into view.

An old man with frizzy white hair and sticky octopus tentacles behind him was concentrating on fiddling with something in front of the instrument.

"Master Merlin."

Ji Xun walked down and greeted him with a smile.

Master Merlin's hands and eight tentacles did not stop, but just turned his head and looked back, saying: "Hey, Ji Xun boy, you are here."

Then, the old man said unceremoniously: "By the way, did you use the [Gene Anchoring Agent]? Quickly draw a tube of blood for me, I will make a sample."

"."

Ji Xun smiled helplessly.

Although he was already familiar with the old man's personality, he still felt a little abrupt about this way of meeting that went straight to the point.

But he didn't say anything, rolled up his sleeves, and cooperated with the tentacles to draw blood for himself.

Merlin was doing acupuncture when he remembered something and asked, "By the way, Ji Xun, did you bring me any materials?"

"Yes."

Ji Xun smiled and took out several storage rings that had been prepared long ago.

Jia Yu had told him before that the old man needed some biological materials.

It just so happened that he had found many rare species in the Warcraft Forest before, so he brought them here.

Master Merlin took the storage ring, and his old face immediately lit up, exclaiming, "Oh, the mythical bloodline [Spine Dragon Python], the hell species [Thunder Lizard], the mythical species [Golden Griffin]. They are all good things. Hey, you actually caught a ghost species [Hell Grudge Nun] alive? Tsk tsk, this is a rare thing, did you get it from the underworld?"

"Yes."

Ji Xun nodded and said, "I met it when I went to the underworld channel before, and I caught it by the way."

He knew that Master Merlin was not only studying normal creatures, but also some extraordinary creatures.

At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart that Master Merlin was knowledgeable. He had only seen many of these creatures in books before, but he didn't expect that the other party would recognize them at a glance.

Looking at the light golden blood that was drawn out, Master Merlin seemed to have noticed something before putting it into the instrument, and exclaimed: "Wow, your strength has improved a lot. The extraordinary characteristics in this blood are not even comparable to those of the eighth-level monsters. Tsk tsk. What a freak."

As he said, he thought of something and asked again: "Are you coming to me to refine the eighth-level career card?"

"Yeah."

Ji Xun didn't do anything, and directly took out the professional refining template of [Guo Shi Wushuang], as well as a dozen books related to this sequence.

Looking at the traces of time on the cover, Master Merlin immediately guessed the origin of these classics and said in surprise: "You kid robbed the Royal Academy?"

He returned to the Old World a long time ago and then plunged into the laboratory without knowing what happened next.

"These classics are indeed obtained by the Royal Academy, but I don't have the ability to snatch them."

Ji Xun also guessed that Master Merlin didn't know, and patiently explained: "After the death dragon Marodis came back from the underworld, he broke into the Royal Academy, and then I got some on the market."

Upon hearing this, Master Merlin suddenly said: "That's it."

Before he could ask, Ji Xun took out several other storage rings and said, "These are research materials related to biology and alchemy. I brought them to the master."

Although there is no technology at all in the Southern Continent, alchemy is actually the magic version of technology.

There are a lot of alchemy-related materials in the Royal Academy, and Ji Xun got a lot of them.

It takes a lot of time to study this information. He majored in combat knowledge, so it was of little use.

Nothing could be better than giving it to this master.

Master Merlin looked at those classics and his eyes shone, "Tsk, tsk, you kid really brings me surprises every time!"

Don't look at it. These classics may be from the Talon period, which is thousands of years old, or even earlier.

But the ancients’ research on biology was no worse than it is now.

Even some alchemists who study taboos have already touched the realm of gods.

These classics are simply priceless treasures for Merlin, a scientific research madman!

Master Merlin's [Eruditionist] sequence also has the ability to multi-task. While sorting out the materials he had just obtained, he was looking through the mountains of classics, and then he was distracted and talking to Ji Xun: "You just said that the dead dragon Malo Dis is already a high-ranking god?"

Ji Xundao: "Yes."

The old man's brain circuit was very surprising. He didn't care about the rank or the war, but directly asked: "Ah, have you got any biological samples of the Dragon God?"

Ji Xun rolled his eyes as he listened and complained: "I want to take it. But I have to have the ability."

"."

Master Merlin seemed to have realized the huge gap between the two levels, and said regretfully: "That's right. You are only at the seventh level. Hey, no, how do I say 'talent'? The speed at which you advance is like a monster."

However, before he could think about it, Ji Xun added, "Although there is no Dragon God's, there are indeed some good ones that are similar."

As soon as these words came out, Master Merlin stared straight at him: "Really?"

He knew Ji Xun wasn't joking.

The strong sense of anticipation has suppressed the joy just now.

"yes."

Ji Xun did not take it out in a hurry, but asked seriously: "Master, do you have a safe sealed container here?"

"have!"

Master Merlin understood something as soon as he heard it. He immediately took out several glass vessels full of runes and a bunch of special sealing vessels. At the same time, he asked: "Is this container of sufficient specifications?"

Ji Xun looked at it and said, "It should be fine."

should?

As soon as these words came out, the anticipation in Master Merlin's eyes burned like a flame.

During his daily research, he often had to seal some dangerous things, so he prepared sealed containers.

You must know that here are the top-level sealed objects he has collected. Looking at this boy's expression, he seems to be still wondering if he is afraid of leaking?

Hiss. What surprise did this guy bring to me? !

After checking the sealed artifacts, Ji Xun patted Ivan in his pocket and woke up the girl.

Ivan reluctantly opened his mouth as if someone had disturbed his sweet dream, and then stuck out a huge round egg.

As soon as the dragon egg was put into the vessel, it was immediately sealed.

But the moment it was exposed to the air, Master Merlin immediately felt the pressure from the high position of the dome. He vaguely guessed what it was and asked: "Dragon egg?"

"Um."

Ji Xun nodded and added: "It's most likely the Dragon God's egg."

The understatement made the research madman in front of him, who had seen countless strange and strange creatures, widen his eyes: Dragon God?

With that said, Ji Xun also explained the origin of the thing and said: "This was found in the Dead Realm. It should be the eggs of the metal dragon gods that besieged Emperor Lanlingst hundreds of thousands of years ago. I took a look at them. , it’s still active, but I don’t know if it can be hatched.”

Forget about dragon knights or anything like that.

Within a few hundred years, the dragon would not be able to reach maturity.

Ji Xun doesn't have such a long life to be a dragon knight. Only by studying for Master Merlin can the value be maximized.

Master Merlin felt an indescribable excitement in his heart, as if the blood all over his body was boiling: "Hahahaha. You really gave the old man a big surprise!"

This professional biologist saw the value of this dragon egg even more than Ji Xun did.

He explained excitedly: "Did you know? According to historical records, the genetic sequence of gods is completely different from that of humans. If we can understand the difference between the genetic sequences of gods and humans, we can even find the genes for becoming gods at the genetic level." secret'!"

"oh?"

Ji Xun didn't realize how serious it was, but it wasn't difficult to understand.

To be honest, the method used by Master Ka to enter the seventh-order "demigod realm" with the mythical crystal core is actually a shortcut at the genetic level.

Theoretically, the god level should also be able to use this method.

But no matter how he thought about it, Ji Xun felt that this idea was a bit mysterious: Gods can be created?

Normal people dare not think about it, but Master Merlin dares!

He was so excited that he was a little incoherent, and said: "Hahaha, this is not what I thought. According to some ancient documents, humans really did this kind of "taboo" in the chaotic era. It was just that they were banned by the gods, and the method has been cut off. Now only a few words are left. Ji Xun, you really gave me a huge problem. Hahaha, the dragon god's egg can directly inherit a part of the divinity, which is even more valuable for research than giving me a dragon god. I can study the changes in the genetic level of the larval growth, and perhaps I can see the "path to becoming a god" hidden in the gene sequence. "

Ji Xun listened to Master Merlin excitedly saying a bunch of professional terms, and then realized that his knowledge of the unknown field was still a bit narrow.

The old man's idea might really work.

Seeing that Master Merlin was about to study the dragon egg, he turned around and forgot about himself.

Ji Xun hurriedly reminded: "Master Merlin, I have something to give you."

Merlin turned his head, "Anything else?"

Ji Xun didn't hesitate, and chose a huge glass vessel with the law of space, and then asked Ivan to spit out an item.

The picture flashed, and he had sealed the vessel.

Looking through the glass, there was a "mummy" sealed with the [Light and Dark Shroud].

Master Merlin looked at the shape of the mummy and said uncertainly: "Is this a giant dragon?"

There are countless dragon descendants and sub-dragons in the southern continent, and there is nothing strange about magic dragons.

Merlin also felt that Ji Xun would not bring him an ordinary sub-dragon magic beast back, and he was so serious, so he asked again: "Could it be that you kid captured a pure-blooded giant dragon?"

Ji Xun nodded: "Yeah."

It really is!

Master Merlin's old face turned red when he saw it, and he asked quickly: "What level?"

He has always wanted to get a pure-blood dragon sample, but that thing is not only difficult to see, but also can't be captured even if you see it.

In the southern continent, whoever dares to capture a pure-blood dragon will offend the entire dragon clan and will never leave alive.

Even if they are the Illumination Hermitage, they can't do it.

I thought about it before, but I didn't dare to do it.

Now looking at this corpse tied up like a mummy, Master Merlin has a sense of illusion that his dream has come true.

However, at this time, Ji Xun said faintly: "And this is not an ordinary pure-blood dragon. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a dragon that has a direct relationship with the Dragon God Aierel."

That's right, this corpse is the corpse of the previous Tianlong Saint Son Cheresa.

According to the information obtained from Jia Yu, this corpse is either the offspring of the Dragon God Aierel or his clone.

There is definitely a direct relationship!

I didn't dare to take it out in the southern continent before, for fear that it would be sensed by the Dragon God or something.

Now in the Old World, there is basically no such scruple.

Not to mention that Dragon God Aierel is now busy with his own affairs, even if He really sensed it, He would not dare to come to the Old World.

When Master Merlin heard this, he seemed to think that he had heard it wrong, and asked back: "You kid killed the offspring of Dragon God Aierel? And you came back alive?"

"Yeah. It's a long story."

Ji Xun described the origin of the corpse lightly.

However, Master Merlin, the only listener, was stunned.

Only then did he realize that the guy in front of him really did something that many people dared not think of in the South Continent.

It's okay to have a dragon god's egg, but now there is a corpse of a dragon god's offspring?

What Master Merlin saw was not potential danger, but a blazing fire of expectation in his eyes.

Before, he thought that a dragon egg might not be perfect, but now with these two samples, he felt that the research direction of "artificial god" in his mind was really feasible!

Master Merlin's laughter resounded in the laboratory: "Hahaha, you kid, you kid are really surprising."

While speaking, the old man changed his face and focused on studying the new material.

Ji Xun also knew that the old man might have forgotten about him, so he added weakly: "That. Master, this is also the main material I plan to refine the career card. You can use it however you see fit."

Master Merlin then glanced back and agreed, "That's nothing."
