God Emperor

Prajna was very direct and said straight to the point: "In the Star Sea World, you are the one behind the scenes. The Shenyou Dan, the Yuanhui Level Illuminating Lotus, and half of the Divine Corpse all fell into your hands. Am I right?" "

Zhang Ruochen neither admitted nor denied.

Respond in silence.

She added: "Xuetu doesn't have that kind of courage, and he doesn't have the ability to challenge the Sword Prison Emperor. He is just a puppet you put on the surface."

"so what?"

Zhang Ruochen said this, which was regarded as admission.

Prajna's bright eyes, agile and clear, stared straight at him and said: "The border god was killed by Fengchen Sword God with one sword. This sword must have used the power of the secret of the sword. It was earth-shattering and contained His most extreme swordsmanship. I want to understand the sword energy cuts on the divine corpse, and I hope that the Great Sage Ruochen can accomplish it."

Zhang Ruochen stared at her and found that she had learned 920,000 sword rules, and she was not far away from the perfect state.

After a long time, he said: "I thought you came here for the Shenyou Dan."

Prajna opened his palm, and a piece of paper appeared in the palm as white as mutton fat. He handed it to Zhang Ruochen and said: "I don't like to owe favors, so as not to be bound by my disciples. If the Great Sage Ruochen agrees, this gift will be It’s a thank you.”

"There's no need for gifts. It's just a matter of meditating on the incision of the divine corpse. I'll take you there." Zhang Ruochen said.

"Don't refuse so quickly. Open it and take a look. It's not too late to make a decision."

The paper flew up automatically from Prajna's palm, looking very light, and floated in front of Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen could no longer refuse and stretched out his hand.

"Huh? Could it be that..."

It's just a piece of paper, but it weighs a thousand pounds.

Zhang Ruochen had a guess in his mind.

When I opened it, I found that my guess was correct. It was a secret mark.

This secret mark looks like a drop of water.

"The secret mark of the Five Elements of Water."

Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised and raised his head to stare at Prajna.

Prajna's eyes were clear and calm, and he said: "Will the Great Sage Ruochen accept this gift or not?"

"As expected of a candidate for the Goddess of the Temple of Destiny, you can actually guess that what I want to condense next is the holy will of the water." Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly, with a deep and thoughtful look in his eyes.

Prajna said: "Every move you make now, and even everything in the future, has already been doomed, and there is no way to escape. Now, do you know how powerful the power of fate is?"

Zhang Ruochen smiled noncommittally, accepted the secret mark of the Way of Water, stood up, and said, "Follow me!"

He did not ask where this secret mark of the Water Way came from.

Prajna didn't want to owe any favors or create bonds, so why should Zhang Ruochen?

Arriving under the sundial, Zhang Ruochen took out the copper coffin again.

He had already carefully explored the sword aura incisions on the divine corpse, but he didn't see any clues. However, Prajna was right, the sword of Fengchen Sword God must have used the power of mysteries.

Observing the incision is like observing the peerless sword of Fengchen Sword God when he killed the god. It is no different from analyzing the secret marks of the sword.

Moreover, it is very likely that there are still a lot of kendo rules and sword intention left at the incision.

However, the corpse of the god contained a lot of toxins, and Zhang Ruochen did not enter the copper coffin or observe it up close.

"Would you like to go in and take a look together?" Suddenly, Prajna asked.

"That's fine."

Zhang Ruochen and Prajna flew into the copper coffin, passed through the layers of space walls and formation layers, and flew into the interior of the divine soul mist. It was like passing through an atmosphere and landing on the divine corpse.

From outside the coffin, it appears to be only half a corpse.

But at this moment, in front of Zhang Ruochen's eyes, there was an endless purple land, and the ground was as hard as divine iron. There were streaks of thunder and lightning in the air, and clouds and mist shrouded overhead.

On this land, there are blue lakes and rivers, and what flows in them is not water, but god-level venom.

A divine corpse is like a world.

Only when you come to the divine corpse can you feel its hugeness and its majestic power that makes it difficult to breathe. Of course, with Zhang Ruochen's cultivation level at the level of the Great Sage, he is no longer afraid of divine power.

The venom is not spread all over the corpses of the gods, but is only distributed in the areas where lakes and rivers are located. However, the sky occasionally rains poison, so Zhang Ruochen and Prajna are very careful not to get involved.

Coming to the incision of the divine corpse, it was like walking to the end of the world. A bottomless cliff appeared in front of me. A large amount of blood mist, poisonous mist, and divine soul mist surged up from the bottom of the cliff, green and purple, and the power clashed fiercely.

Any living being would feel palpitations standing on the edge of such a cliff.

Prajna stood tall and handsome, looking at the surging mist in front of him, and said: "Did you know? Every move you make in the Destiny Domain is within the sight of the gods, and it is difficult to hide secrets."

Zhang Ruochen didn't know why she suddenly said such a sentence and said: "No matter how powerful the gods are, it is impossible for them to know everything. As long as I am willing, I can naturally deceive their perceptions. However, doing so at this stage is not good for me. Harmful and useless.”

The gods paid attention to Zhang Ruochen because they did not trust Zhang Ruochen.

In this case, Zhang Ruochen fortunately let them see it without hiding anything. Otherwise, with his current cultivation, it would not be difficult to erase the thoughts of several gods.

Many great sages who don’t want to be spied on by gods will do this.

The Great Sage is not an ant, not a god that can control it if it wants to, or peep at if it wants to, and already has a certain degree of resistance power.

Prajna said: "In the divine soul mist, or in the body of the divine corpse, the gods' perception ability, and even the calculation ability will be ineffective."

"oh?"

Zhang Ruochen looked thoughtful and said, "You mean, it's difficult for the gods to sense what's happening here? And they can't deduce it?"

"Someone wants to meet you. This is a nice place. I'll go to Wu Jian first, and you can talk to her slowly."

After saying this, Prajna jumped off the cliff and disappeared into the confused mist.

Zhang Ruochen thought carefully about the words Prajna left behind. Suddenly, he understood and took out the piece of paper.

In the center of the paper is a drop of water.

Zhang Ruochen stared closely at the water droplets. Suddenly, his consciousness and holy soul were separated by a strange force and landed on an endless sea.

On the sea, there are no waves and no wind.

The water is clear and calm, like a huge mirror.

A slender figure appeared silently on the sea.

She was clearly standing in front of Zhang Ruochen, but Zhang Ruochen couldn't see her face clearly. It was like a shadow, but it was real, the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror.

Quite weird.

"Who are you?"

Zhang Ruochen felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen her somewhere.

"Huaying Qingchan."

Her voice sounded on the sea, sometimes far and sometimes near, erratic.

"Huaying" is an ancient surname in the Kunlun world. Zhang Ruochen had seen it in the classics of the Shengming Central Empire, and many sensational figures were born.

Unfortunately, after the Middle Ages, this surname disappeared from the Kunlun world.

"Are you an ancient god from the Kunlun realm?"

Zhang Ruochen could tell that the person in front of him was just a thought from the god.

The spiritual thoughts are hidden in the secret mark of the water way, come here and meet him.

"Kunlun, such a distant name, I really want to go back and see it. One hundred thousand years! Has the water of the Daming River dried up? Has the Confucian tea tree of Hua Zong grown new tea? The majestic Zulong Mountain, the vast North Sea Are the water, the prosperous Wanxiang City, and the old friends still there? "

The woman named Huaying Qingchan's eyes were blurred, and her voice was full of sentimentality.

It seemed like he was asking Zhang Ruochen, but also like he was talking to himself.

The voice of the Heavenly God Tree sounded in Zhang Ruochen's mind, saying: "She was the saint of the former God of Death Island, and the granddaughter of the owner of the God of Death Island. A hundred thousand years ago, she was the greatest prodigy and the most beautiful woman in the Kunlun world. "

"At that time when she was there, she made all the geniuses bow their heads. In the same realm, it is difficult to meet an enemy with one move. Blood God's eldest disciple, Blood Spirit Immortal, is also a genius. However, fighting her in the same realm is just After holding on for seven moves, he vomited blood and fell to the ground. It was these seven moves that made Xue Lingxian famous and became the strongest person second only to her in that era. "

"Now, in heaven, the famous Black-Hearted Demon Lord could only be regarded as her follower."

"It's a pity that she, the Blood God of War and Huang Tian were not born in the same era, and were three thousand years too late. Otherwise, they may not have become the peerless twins of the previous Yuanhui."

Before Jietian Shenmu could finish speaking, Zhang Ruochen had already guessed Hua Ying Qingchan's identity.

The Empress of Thousand Bones.

No wonder he felt a sense of familiarity. He had seen her figure across the distant starry sky when he was on the verge of death.

Zhang Ruochen's heart was shaken violently.

I never expected that one day I would be able to talk face to face with the legendary figure.

"I feel the aura of Senior Jie Tian in you. Can I go see her?" Hua Ying Qingchan said.

"certainly."

Zhang Ruochen had a deep respect for the Qiangu Empress and calmly opened the door to the world of Qiankun Realm.

Huaying Qingchan walked to the foot of the Heaven-Connecting Sacred Tree and communicated with it, while Zhang Ruochen stood far away, not approaching, feeling filled with emotions.

I don't know how much time passed, Huaying Qingchan came over, looked at Zhang Ruochen carefully, and said: "The fact that Holy Monk Xumi can choose you to be his successor, and can entrust Senior Jietian to you to nurture him, means that you must be extraordinary. . Zhang Ruochen, I have wanted to meet you for a long time."

"Haven't we already met once?"

Immediately, Zhang Ruochen told the story of the encounter at the gate of hell.

Huaying Qingchan pondered for a moment and said, "When you see me, we should not be on the same timeline."

Zhang Ruochen asked: "What does the empress mean?"

"We are in the same space, but not at the same time. What you see is just an image I left behind when I went to the future many years ago." Huaying Qingchan said.

Zhang Ruochen said: "The empress is also the controller of time? Has she already possessed the power to travel to the past and future?"

"It's not a big deal. My future self will often appear in front of me and teach me deeper truths." Huaying Qingchan said lightly.

Throughout the ages, there have been only a handful of beings who can travel between the past and the future.

She actually said that this was not a big deal?

Moreover, she can actually travel from the future to the present and preach to herself.

It's too perverted to be your own master. How can other monks live?

Zhang Ruochen was even more confused because the future body of the Thousand Bones Empress could travel to the present and preach to himself. Why has his future body never appeared?

Does it mean that he has no future at all?

If you haven't cultivated to that state, you will have died.

Huaying Qingchan guessed what Zhang Ruochen was thinking and said: "Don't think too much. Even if other time controllers have the ability to travel back to the past, they still have to pay a huge price. Moreover, you cannot deal with the past. It will not cause any impact, let alone meet your past self directly.”

"The reason why I can do it is because I have mastered an artifact that can resist time and possess about 30% of the secrets of time in the world. Even so, what I can do is very limited."

Zhang Ruochen's mind was very determined, he smiled lightly and did not continue to think about the future.

Huaying Qingchan said: "Do you know why I took the risk to come to the Destiny Realm to meet you in person?"

"Is it related to the Huntian Banquet?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Huaying Qingchan nodded and said: "The Heavenly Order of Destiny and the Mystery of Destiny are things I must get. I know that Xuanji has already told you about it, but there are huge risks in this matter. You can refuse it at all. There’s no need to get involved.”

"Is the empress questioning my determination? Or doubting my character?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Huaying Qingchan said: "If I doubt you, I will never come to see you in person. If the gods of the hell world know that I have come to the Destiny God Realm, they will definitely find me at all costs and suppress me with the most violent means. kill."

"The reason why I came to see you is to see your determination. I also want to see what kind of person the successor of Saint Monk Xumi, the disciple of Xuanji, and the master of Han Xue, is like?"

"At the hunting banquet, what did you do when you met monks from all realms of heaven? When you met old friends and former friends from Kunlun realm, were you able to kill them decisively?"

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen didn't speak for a long time, Huaying Qingchan said again: "If you can't do it, don't go to the Hunting Heaven Banquet. Prajna will take your place and seize the decree of destiny and the secret of destiny."

"Does it have to be killed?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Huaying Qingchan said: "You have to kill as many as you can."

Zhang Ruochen frowned and couldn't answer the Qiangu Empress because he didn't know who he would meet at the Huntian Banquet. When the time comes, will it really be possible to kill decisively?

Huaying Qingchan said: "Let me ask you a question, why are you practicing so hard? Why did you attend the Hunting Heaven Banquet? What is the purpose of everything you are doing now?"

Zhang Ruochen muttered to himself: "For what? Master said that as long as the formation master is rescued, the pattern of Kunlun Realm can be changed, or the Hell Realm can retreat."

"Are you doing this for the Kunlun Realm?" Huaying Qingchan said.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Maybe... right! Isn't the empress the queen?"

Huaying Qingchan stretched out two slender jade fingers and pulled up a small green grass on the ground. The roots of the grass were stained with soil.

"I am like this piece of grass that has left the ground. To me, the earth is just a memory and homeland. Now I just want to do what I want to do and what I should do."

"If the Kunlun Realm is destroyed, my heart will be sad, but it is not everything to me."

"For a hundred thousand years, I have only wanted to do one thing, rescue my grandfather and reunite with him. The life and death of the Kunlun Realm is not as important to me as this."

"Perhaps my grandfather's generation had lofty ideals, deep feelings for the Kunlun world, lofty ideals, visions of glory, and plans for the universe. But I didn't."

"Xuanji got involved because he had full confidence in his grandfather, had deep feelings for the Kunlun world, and was nostalgic for everything there."

"But what about you? Are you doing it for the Kunlun world? Or for yourself? Or, for your master Xuanji?"

"If you don't think clearly about this, don't get involved. Don't be coerced by the life and death of Kunlun Realm, and don't be affected by the so-called righteousness. After all, you have nothing to do with my grandfather. In fact, I don't know whether he is still alive. It's hard to judge. Even if he is alive, it is still unknown whether he can force the hell realm to retreat. "
