God Emperor

The Niukeng Hell Realm is barren of grass and boundless, like a dead place.

However, this dead and silent place is filled with endless dangers.

Along the way, Zhang Ruochen and the green-haired creatures were attacked more than ten times, and the enemies they attacked were all creatures in the Saint King realm. Some are humans, some are vicious dogs, and some are ghost kings...

However, their realms are not high. The most powerful one is only at the level of the Four-step Saint King and cannot hurt Zhang Ruochen.

The doubts in Zhang Ruochen's heart became stronger and stronger, and he asked: "Why are so many powerful beings gathered in the Niukeng Hell Realm? How do they rely on to improve their cultivation? They don't just breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and comprehend the world. The rules are so simple, right?”

"My lord is wise, indeed you are not."

The green-haired creature whispered: "There are stone medicines growing in the Niukeng Hell Realm that can improve your cultivation level. Each stone medicine plant is a treasure. If you swallow it, your cultivation level can be greatly improved."

"oh!"

Zhang Ruochen's eyes lit up and he asked curiously: "What is stone medicine? Where does it grow? Why haven't we encountered any during our journey?"

The green-haired creature said: "Stone medicine grows along Tiantu Canyon. We haven't reached Tiantu Canyon yet, so naturally we can't encounter it."

Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, "Where is Tiantu Canyon?"

"Tiantu Canyon is a rift valley thousands of miles long, located in the center of the Niukeng Hell Realm."

After a pause, the green-haired creature continued: "The canyon continues to grow longer and wider every year, and it seems to be dividing the Niukeng Hell Realm into two."

"However, the area where the most stone medicine grows in Tiantu Canyon has been occupied by the Nebula Leopard. No living creature is allowed to get involved. Once it comes close, it will be killed without mercy. Other creatures can only try their luck outside the canyon. If you are lucky, you may not be sure. I can find one or two stone medicine plants.”

Zhang Ruochen narrowed his eyes and said: "Since there are stone medicine growing in Tiantu Canyon, countless creatures must have gotten their hands on it. Nebula Leopard's cultivation level is only five steps to the Saint King realm, how can he hold it?"

"Your Excellency, you don't know. In the Niukeng Hell Realm, once a creature's cultivation exceeds the five-step Holy King realm, it will be forcibly expelled to the next level of Hell Realm by the world spirit."

"Although there are some strong men in the five-step holy king realm in Niukeng Prison and several other prisons. However, none of them are Nebula Leopard's opponents. Even if they join forces, they may not be able to win."

The green-haired creature said with awe: "The Nebula Leopard's combat power is probably not weak compared to the Six-Step Holy King or even the Seven-step Holy King."

After traveling for thousands of miles, the green-haired creature suddenly stopped and looked to the horizon, with a strong look of fear in its eyes.

A layer of red light rose from the ground at the edge of the sky, reflecting the sky into a fiery red color, like flames burning in the sky.

Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes, felt it carefully, and made a soft sound from his mouth.

"The light pouring out from the ground contains some kind of mysterious power, which activates the rules of heaven and earth." Zhang Ruochen ran his skills and immediately felt the rules of heaven and earth coming to him and converging on his sea of ​​qi.

"That is the descending light, which gushes out from the bottom of Tiantu Canyon. It is the nourishment and illumination of the descending light that allows Tiantu Canyon and the surrounding areas to breed stone medicine."

The green-furred creature's eyes were shining, and it was obvious that he was very excited.

Then, it pointed to a red mountain below the descending light and said: "That's where the Nebula Leopard lives, the Nebula Lie Volcano."

Zhang Ruochen took steps and moved forward.

Every step you take is a distance of dozens of miles.

The green-haired creature was afraid of the Nebula Leopard and did not dare to follow him. He stared at Zhang Ruochen's retreating figure and thought to himself: "Although this person's cultivation is strong, he is too conceited. Is the Nebula Leopard easy to mess with? I'd better run away." Some, lest Nebula Leopard discover my aura after killing him and kill me too."

Soon, Zhang Ruochen arrived at the edge of Tiantu Canyon, less than a hundred miles away from Nebula Lie Volcano.

Five feet away from him, there was a stone medicine plant with three leaves, like a ruby, with flames burning on the leaves, emitting blazing heat.

But inside it, there is a strong breath of life.

Zhang Ruochen picked the stone medicine from the air, held it in his hand and played with it, then used the Pure Fire to refine it into a walnut-sized medicine liquid.

After swallowing it, Zhang Ruochen's cultivation level remained unchanged, except that his physical body and mental strength increased significantly.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly, a little disappointed: "The stone medicine here is of great use to a low-level holy king. However, with my current level, no matter how much I swallow, it will not mean much."

"Ouch!"

A long and earth-shaking roar came from the crimson mountain behind Zhang Ruochen, forming a billowing wave of air.

"How dare you go to the Nebula Lie Volcano to steal quarrying medicine? Who gave you the courage?"

The roar resounded throughout the world.

A brilliant seven-colored nebula flew out of the volcano and landed above Zhang Ruochen's head, releasing a powerful holy power.

"It's indeed the Nebula Leopard." Zhang Ruochen was overjoyed.

You must know that Nebula Leopard is a descendant of a divine beast, which is quite rare. Most of the people who live in Lievolcano are Senior Brother Baolie.

"Leopard Lie..."

Zhang Ruochen saw the figure standing in the colorful nebula clearly, and was startled. He was about to spit out the sound in his throat, but then took it back.

In the nebula, stood a young man in his twenties, with a pair of colorful leopard ears, thick eyebrows, wearing a red armor, holding a spear as thick as a bowl, and his eyes radiated like stars. Bright brilliance.

Not Senior Brother Baolie.

However, this young man is somewhat similar to Senior Brother Leopard Lie in human form.

Could it be that he is a descendant of Senior Brother Baolie?

Without any more words, Leopard Star Soul thrust out his spear, and a crimson light shuttle flew out from the tip of the spear, rushing towards Zhang Ruochen on the ground. The light shuttle was very thick, like a river, causing the world to shake violently.

In the distance, the green-haired creature sensed the powerful fluctuations of holy power coming from the direction of Tiantu Canyon, and his heart trembled, "They all say you can't provoke the Nebula Leopard, why don't you believe it? He's dead, that human is dead!"

This son might be the descendant of Senior Brother Baolie, and Zhang Ruochen didn't want to hurt him.

So, Zhang Ruochen stood still, just stimulating circles of holy light to block the crimson light shuttle shot by the Leopard Star Soul, making it impossible to get close.

Leopard Star Soul's eyes flashed with disbelief.

"The blow I struck with all my strength was easily deflected by him. Could it be that his cultivation level exceeds that of the Five-Step Saint King?"

This thought just flashed through Leopard Star Soul's mind, and the next moment, he found himself in front of the human monk, unable to move.

"How can it be?"

Leopard Star Soul's arms burned with flames, trying hard to break free from Zhang Ruochen's suppression.

However, the surrounding space seemed to have become solidified, and it was extremely difficult for him to move a finger.

Zhang Ruochen observed him carefully, nodded slightly, and said, "You practice Nerve Refining. It seems that you are indeed a descendant of Senior Brother Baolie."

"You actually know "Nerve Refining"?" Leopard Star Soul felt surprised.

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said: ""Refining the Nerve" is one of the top exercises in the Shengming Central Empire, how could I not know it?"

"Nonsense, "Refining the Nerve" is a technique practiced by my father. What does it have to do with that bullshit Saint Ming Central Empire?" Leopard Star Soul said.

Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, "Where is your father?"

"Who are you and why should I tell you?" Leopard Star Soul said.

Zhang Ruochen was not angry, but felt happy in his heart, which at least proved that Senior Brother Baolie was probably still alive.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Who am I? According to seniority, you should call me uncle."

"Uncle Master? I am still your master."

Leopard Star Soul snorted softly, and said with cold eyes: "I think you want to seize the Dendrobium Golden Orchid from my father's hands, right? It's useless. Although your cultivation is strong, in front of my father, you can't It’s vulnerable.”

Zhang Ruochen said: "Since you are so confident in your father's strength, then take me to find him."

Leopard Star Soul sneered and said nothing, showing no intention of leading the way.

"You have no confidence in your father?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Leopard Star Soul pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, since you want to seek death, I will take you there."

Leopard Star Soul led the way, and Zhang Ruochen followed, heading towards the "Stone Pressed Hell Realm" on the eleventh floor of the Netherworld Dungeon.

According to what Leopard Star Soul said, his father went to the fifteenth floor of the Netherworld Dungeon, the "Zhenxing Prison Realm", to practice and seek opportunities to break through the realm. To go to the fifteenth level of hell, you must pass through the eleventh, twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth levels.

"It's the fifteenth level of prison again. Why do you all go there to practice in seclusion?"

Zhang Ruochen felt puzzled. After all, Pluto was imprisoned in the fifteenth level of prison. Could it be that there was also a holy land for cultivation?

Arriving at the Zhexing Prison Realm, Zhang Ruochen was stunned.

Under his feet were colorful crystals scattered throughout the earth. There were both spiritual crystals and holy stones. They were too numerous to count.

Leopard Star Soul also came to the fifteenth level of prison for the first time. Seeing the scene in front of him, he was a little dull.

In the distance, there is a red lake of flames, covering an area of ​​several hundred miles.

The closer you get to the Flame Lake, the more active the rules between heaven and earth become, like horned dragons, traveling through space and time.

Zhang Ruochen came to the edge of the lake, closed his eyes, and understood the rules of the holy way at a speed that more than tripled.

Continuing to walk towards the center of the lake, the surrounding temperature rises rapidly. At the same time, Zhang Ruochen's speed of comprehending the rules of the holy way is getting faster and faster.

Four times, five times...

Still growing.

"Boom."

Suddenly, a leopard claw hundreds of meters long stretched out from the ground of the flame lake. A large amount of light flowed on the claw and struck Zhang Ruochen.

At the edge of the flame lake, Leopard Star Soul showed a look of joy: "Father."

That leopard paw is just a shadow.

However, the power fluctuations emitted were so powerful that the flames in the lake were suppressed and dimmed. On the ground, pieces of spiritual crystals and holy stones continued to explode and turn into powder.

Zhang Ruochen formed palm seals with both hands at the same time, striking out the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, mobilizing the rules of truth and bursting out seven times the attack power.

"The dragon and the elephant reach the sky."

Countless dragon shadows and elephant shadows flew out and collided with the leopard's claws.
