God Emperor

"Wow——"

Mu Lingxi flew out of the darkness, turned into a fragrant wind, and landed next to Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen stared at Lance Bai and asked, "Are you really Shang Ziyan's cousin?"

Lance Bai seemed to see a glimmer of hope in despair and said, "This is absolutely true. Your friendship with my cousin should be very good, right?"

The scholar in blue across from him had the divine seal of merit, so Lance Bai would naturally think so.

"The friendship is indeed very good." Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly.

Lance Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his posture, and said with cupped hands: "It was all a misunderstanding in the past. I didn't know the heights of the world. For the sake of my cousin, please let me go this time..."

"Pfft."

The heavy sword in Zhang Ruochen's hand penetrated Lance Bai's head.

Even to the point of death, Lance Bai didn't understand why Zhang Ruochen would kill him. His eyes were blank and he fell heavily to the ground, with holy blood dripping from the huge sword on his face.

Zhang Ruochen searched out the storage containers on their bodies. These people were worthy of being the geniuses standing at the top of a great world, and their wealth far exceeded those of the Half-Step Saint Kings.

More than twenty pieces of sacred artifacts with ten thousand patterns, a large number of sacred stones, dozens of sacred elixir bottles... In addition, there are also many rare ten thousand year sacred medicines and sacred fruits. Because they are very rare, Zhang Ruochen guessed, These were picked by them at the Fengshen Platform.

While Zhang Ruochen was counting the treasures, Mu Lingxi was destroying the corpses and removing traces.

The identities of these monks are very unusual. Their death during the Conferred God Platform Conference will cause a huge shock. The Temple of Truth must not let them find out about them.

"quack."

In the darkness, a strange sound sounded, like a vicious beast grinding its teeth.

But there is absolutely no possibility of a ferocious beast in this restricted area. Could it be a legendary ancient ferocious creature?

Zhang Ruochen's expression changed dramatically, he rolled up all the treasures on the ground, put them into the space ring, and used space to teleport to appear next to Mu Lingxi.

Mu Lingxi also heard the voice, her pretty face was a little pale, she held the phoenix feather in her hand, ready to fight at any time.

"It should be the sound of fighting just now that attracted the unknown creatures in the restricted area." Zhang Ruochen said.

Mu Lingxi asked: "What should we do now? Retreat from the cave, or fight?"

In fact, Zhang Ruochen is still a little worried about Xiang Chunan. Although that guy has a pair of clairvoyance, he lacks a brain and may not be able to get out of this extremely dangerous restricted area alive. Therefore, Zhang Ruochen will definitely not retreat alone.

Zhang Ruochen really wanted to send Mu Lingxi out first and then go find Xiang Chunan, but he knew that Mu Lingxi would definitely not be willing. Forcing her to leave will only break her heart.

Zhang Ruochen said cautiously: "When you don't know the strength of the opponent, it's better not to take action easily."

"quack."

The strange sounds in the darkness became increasingly dense.

A creepy yin energy surged from all directions. At the same time, there were also clusters of cyan flames lighting up. To be precise, they should be pairs of flaming eyes.

Unfortunately, in this restricted area, Zhang Ruochen could only see clearly things within ten feet, and couldn't see clearly at all. What did the owners of those blue flame eyes look like dozens of feet away?

Zhang Ruochen grabbed Mu Lingxi's wrist and rushed in the direction where Xiang Chunan and many strong men in the heaven had left footprints. In front of them, there were also two pairs of cyan flaming eyes.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to see their figures clearly, so he had no space to move.

Getting closer and closer, thirty feet, twenty feet, fifteen feet, fourteen feet...

Entering within ten feet, Zhang Ruochen stared straight ahead. He was surprised to find that the two pairs of cyan flame eyes disappeared, which made the hair on his body stand up.

"Where did they go?"

Mu Lingxi gritted her teeth, and the phoenix feather in her hand released a blue cold light.

"There is no space fluctuation. What they are exerting is not space power... bad..." Zhang Ruochen's heart trembled, and he had a premonition of extreme danger, and he hurriedly swung the heavy sword in his hand.

"Chi——"

In front of him and Mu Lingxi, the tip of a sacred bone spear appeared out of thin air, less than three inches from Zhang Ruochen's heart, exuding a frightening Yin energy.

Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen drew his sword in advance and hit the holy bone spear, shaking it away.

If so, if he waits until the holy bone spear appears before drawing out his sword, he will be unable to block it and will be pierced through the heart.

Just when Zhang Ruochen was about to use space movement to quickly escape from this place, another sacred bone spear stabbed down from above, less than three inches away from Zhang Ruochen's head.

"Bang."

Zhang Ruochen swung out his sword again, causing the sacred bone spear to shrink back.

After retracting, it disappeared without a trace.

Mu Lingxi located the opponent's body position based on the angle at which they thrust out the holy bone spear. Then, he waved the phoenix feathers, released the power of the extremely yin ice, and launched dozens of attacks in a row.

Strangely, these attacks all hit the ground.

"It's not like they used the invisibility technique, but they have no body or soul at all. Otherwise, even if they are ghosts, they will be frozen to death if they come into contact with the power of the extreme Yin ice." Mu Lingxi said.

"I don't think so." Zhang Ruochen said thoughtfully.

Behind Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi, a large number of footsteps sounded, and dozens of pairs of green flaming eyes moved quickly towards the two of them.

"Walk."

Zhang Ruochen used spatial movement and disappeared with Mu Lingxi.

Every time it moves, it can span a distance of tens of feet.

Even so, several pairs of cyan flame eyes still chased after him, getting closer and closer.

Mu Lingxi took out four Heavenly Sword Talismans, held them between his fingers, and struck them out with a wave of his arm. The talisman exploded and turned into four infinitely powerful white heavenly swords, striking at the four pairs of cyan flaming eyes that were chasing closest.

Seeing the four heavenly swords, he was about to hit them.

Suddenly, four pairs of green flaming eyes disappeared, and the four heavenly swords flew into the distance and disappeared into the darkness. After a moment, four pairs of cyan flame eyes appeared again, chasing them within ten feet behind them.

Mu Lingxi finally saw their figures clearly, with a look of horror on her face.

The owner of the four pairs of cyan flame eyes turned out to be her father, the leader of the Demon Cult, Shi Qianjue. The other two were also known to her, and they were both strong men whom she feared, respected, and feared.

However, the bodies of these four people had rotted away, and their faces were so rotten that their bones were exposed, making them look sinister.

Zhang Ruochen also looked back, and what he saw was Chi Yao, Yan Shen of the Temple of Merit, and the other two people turned out to be Emperor Qing and Emperor Ming.

These four people are also in the form of rotting corpses.

"No, this is not their true appearance, but the Yin Qi emanating from them, which affects my holy soul and wants to inspire the fear buried deep in my heart."

Zhang Ruochen has a strong heart, although the four people behind him did make him feel fear, fear, or awe at a certain age in his past. But now, he has grown up and has a strong mind. Even if the real bodies of these four people come, they cannot scare him.

"I don't believe it. You are really not afraid of any attack."

Zhang Ruochen suddenly stopped, mobilized the power of time, and quickly retreated, performing a time sword technique.

At this moment, time stops.

"Chi Yao", "Yanshen", "Qing Emperor", and "Ming Emperor" all became still. Zhang Ruochen penetrated Chi Yao's eyebrows with a sword. Suddenly, her body shattered like ceramics.

"Snapped."

The green flame eyes went out, leaving only a humanoid corpse with a broken head, which fell to the ground and became motionless.

The cyan yin energy escaped from the head of the humanoid corpse, making the black soil on the ground make a chirping sound.

Next, Zhang Ruochen used three more time sword moves in succession, killing "Yan Shen", "Qing Emperor" and "Ming Emperor" one by one. Three more humanoid corpses appeared on the ground.

When the four humanoid corpses were alive, they must have been strong men in the realm of the Holy King, but their bodies have rotted into what they are now. From this, it can be seen that they have been dead for at least tens of thousands of years, or even more than a hundred thousand years.

The green Yin energy escaping from the rotting corpse was quite terrifying. Zhang Ruochen did not dare to touch it, so he took Mu Lingxi and continued to escape.

I don’t know how long I ran away, but I finally got rid of those green flaming eyes completely.

Because of the continuous movement of space, the holy energy in Zhang Ruochen's body was almost exhausted, and his face was covered with sweat.

Next, Mu Lingxi took him forward to pursue Xiang Chunan and others, while he took a holy pill, ran his skills, and restored the holy energy consumed in his body.

About 60% of the holy energy had been restored. Suddenly, Mu Lingxi stopped and said, "It's gone!"

Zhang Ruochen asked: "What's missing?"

"The footprints are gone!"

Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes and stared at the ground.

Sure enough, whether it was Xiang Chunan's footprints or the footprints of the masters in the heaven world, they suddenly disappeared here, as if there was an invisible door in front of them, swallowing them up.

Mu Lingxi walked forward, but was stopped by Zhang Ruochen: "Don't go forward."

"Why?" Mu Lingxi was confused.

Zhang Ruochen did not explain to her, but looked at the surrounding environment and found that this was the ruins of a palace complex. However, after millions of years, not even a tile could be found, only some broken walls. , even most of these walls have sunk into the ground, seeming to be completely buried by the years.

Mu Lingxi also discovered something, and became even more confused, saying: "This restricted area should have been very prosperous and prosperous in the past. How could it be shrouded in darkness? If these palaces are still there, they must be majestic, comparable to some temples."

Zhang Ruochen seemed to have guessed something and pointed forward: "Perhaps, the answer lies ahead."

"In front?" Mu Lingxi asked.

Zhang Ruochen grabbed Mu Lingxi's wrist and stepped forward.

The next moment, the blinding white light made it impossible for the two people who had been in the darkness to open their eyes for a long time. When she opened her eyes again, Mu Lingxi was stunned. In front of her eyes was a world with clear skies.

Right in front of her, there was a group of palaces that exuded divine light. They were majestic and majestic. Each one was more than 10,000 feet tall, as if a true god lived inside.

"The palaces that had been reduced to ruins actually appeared again. Is this all an illusion?" Mu Lingxi couldn't help but stretched out a small hand and touched the purple gold gate in front of him.

What came was a real touch.

"It's actually true."

Mu Lingxi felt that she was going crazy and quickly took a step back. This step was like stepping back from a certain boundary. She suddenly returned to the dark and boundless world, and there was still a dilapidated ruins in front of her.

"How could this happen? Where is the real world? Where is the illusion?" Mu Lingxi said to himself.

Zhang Ruochen also stepped back, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and said: "This should be an area where reality and nothingness coexist. If I guessed correctly, there used to be gods who practiced the way of truth, and gods who practiced the way of nothingness. Fighting here. I don’t know how terrifying that battle was. It’s not certain that there are gods who practice other powers. For example, the power of fear and ancient Yin Qi, these residual powers should be ancient gods. The legacy of the Great War.”

Mu Lingxi asked: "Then those splendid palaces we just saw, do they really exist, or have they been destroyed long ago and are just virtual images?"

"This is the remnant left by the battle of the gods. How can we see through it with our current cultivation? However, I feel... they should be real... reality and nothingness coexist." Zhang Ruochen said.
