God Emperor

Zhang Ruochen is not a heartless person. He is like this to everyone around him.

That's right. After listening to Prajna's words, the indifference in his eyes melted a little, and his voice was a little low: "I can't remember how I got together with Princess Yanchen. I only remember that when we first met, the word Chen seemed to offend her taboo, and she entered the Di Gate by mistake, and since then we have a relationship."

"So many things happened later, there were disputes, warmth, separations, joys and sorrows. Do you still remember how they went from disliking each other to knowing each other and falling in love?"

Prajna sat on the Yukong Ice Stone, with her eyes lowered, listening quietly, without responding.

"The reason why two people come together is that they go from knowing each other to understanding each other, from understanding each other to mutual appreciation, from mutual appreciation to falling in love, and from falling in love to staying together. Unfortunately, they didn't make it to the last step."

"If they hadn't met in the West Courtyard. If on the eve of their wedding, Queen Chi Yao didn't send Wan Zhaoyi to the Eastern Domain Saint King's Mansion to capture Zhang Ruochen. If Zhang Ruochen didn't help Huang Yanchen and become a world child. If Zhang Ruochen and Queen Chi Yao didn't have eight hundred years of grievances. Would the result be better?"

Zhang Ruochen said slowly, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was thinking about his past and present lives.

The longer a person lives, the different way he looks at things will always be.

The high spirits of his youth made him feel full of energy and passion, and he could fight any powerful enemy without knowing his own strength, even if he died, he would not look back.

And now, Zhang Ruochen will never be like that again.

Just like when he dared to kill Ziwei Palace alone and question Chi Yao. Now, it is completely impossible for him to go to the Ghost City of the Demons alone and challenge the Ghost Lord.

It is not that he is afraid of fighting, but he does not want to die.

No matter how difficult the problem is, there is a better solution than to die bravely.

Prajna finally spoke again, saying: "There are not so many ifs. The past is a foregone conclusion. The only thing that can be decided is the future."

The two sat opposite each other, and every word they said seemed to be full of emotion, but also like pale words between strangers.

Zhang Ruochen was calm and said no more. A sharp light appeared in his eyes again, and he said: "To defeat Wujiang, it is not necessary to have dark space-time matter. As long as my blood can be restored, he will lose the next time we fight."

"But your goal has never been to defeat Wujiang, but to be the first in the Hunting Heaven War." Prajna said.

Zhang Ruochen thought carefully and said: "First of all, we must be able to survive."

As soon as the voice fell, the space shook slightly.

There were dense time mark light spots, passing through the purple-gold light film formed by the supreme power, entering the gourd, covering Zhang Ruochen and Prajna.

Time, changed even more.

"Why did so many time marks suddenly appear? No, the power of time is quickly wearing away our lifespans."

Zhang Ruochen found that the flow of time slowed down by a thousand times, close to time standing still. Here, even if a million years passed, only one year passed outside.

However, unlike practicing in the range covered by the sundial, staying here for a year does not consume a year of lifespan, but a thousand years.

In other words, Zhang Ruochen stayed here for a million years, only one year passed outside, but his lifespan would be consumed by a billion years.

Staying here for a year, only a few breaths passed outside, but a cultivator's lifespan would be consumed by a thousand years.

"Dark Star is really not a treasure land for cultivation. We must find dark space-time matter as soon as possible and then leave."

Zhang Ruochen's expression was solemn, realizing that True Lord Lan Sui should not only die under the compression of space, but the extreme change of time should also be one of the reasons for his death.

About a month later, the space squeezing force from all directions gradually disappeared.

Zhang Ruochen's tense nerves relaxed.

Fortunately, when entering the hunting battlefield, Zhang Ruochen asked the cultivators of the Blood Sky Tribe to take a magic stone each. These magic stones are now in his hands.

It is precisely because they can continuously absorb the divine energy contained in the magic stones that the power in Zhang Ruochen and Prajna's body has not been exhausted, and they can continue to support the purple gold gourd and stimulate the supreme power.

"Wow——"

The purple gold gourd grew bigger again, from a purple gold light point, into a gourd boat hundreds of meters long, floating in the boundless void.

The two flew out of the gourd, stood on the surface of the gourd, and prepared to move forward.

Prajna looked at the sapphire stone suspended in the void and said, "Although the Blue Marrow Star has become only this big, it contains huge energy. If the divine stone is exhausted, it should be able to support us to continue living here."

He also said, "I found that your purple gold gourd has refined a large number of star cores. Can it be collected and refined as well?"

Zhang Ruochen was a little uncertain and said, "Its weight is a thousand times heavier than ordinary star cores. Refining it is equivalent to refining a thousand star cores."

Zhang Ruochen was naturally interested in the Blue Marrow Star.

Once the refining is successful, the purple gold gourd's swallowing capacity will definitely increase greatly. At that time, it will also pose a threat to Lanying, Yanhuangtu, Que and others.

Under Zhang Ruochen's control, the purple gold gourd became even bigger, like a gourd mountain.

The gourd mouth was aimed at the sapphire stone and put it in.

Then, the weight of the purple gold gourd increased greatly, and Zhang Ruochen could only try his best to drive the gourd to fly rapidly.

While flying, Zhang Ruochen used the supreme power to refine the blue marrow star.

This is a long and boring journey, looking for dark space-time matter, like looking for a needle in a haystack, elusive and elusive.

At the same time, it is accompanied by huge dangers.

Every other month, a regular tidal storm in space breaks out. At that time, Zhang Ruochen and Prajna would hide inside the gourd and wait until the storm was over before coming out again.

In this crisis-ridden world, three years passed quickly.

Zhang Ruochen relied on the nourishment of the sacred stone and the heart of the sacred tree to fully recover from the blood of the great sage in his body, and his injuries were also healed.

The Purple Gold Gourd has flown hundreds of millions of miles, but not even a trace of dark space-time matter has been found.

In the past three years, Zhang Ruochen ate all the remaining seven sacred fruits of the Tao of Evolution. His lifespan increased by 21,000 years, and the rules of the Holy Tao in his body increased by 700 million, bringing the total to 3.5 billion.

Relying on the special environment here, Zhang Ruochen's understanding of time and space has greatly improved.

Time rules and space rules have grown rapidly, with the number exceeding 40 million. If the space domain and the virtual time domain are now manifested, Zhang Ruochen is fully confident that he can fight against the boundless country of the underworld.

Just the understanding of time and space has made Zhang Ruochen feel that his trip is worthwhile. This experience will definitely lay a solid foundation for the future to condense the sacred meaning of time and space.

The biggest reason why Zhang Ruochen ate all the Holy Fruit of Yan Dao was that he was forced to do nothing.

First, the lifespan was consumed too much. In just three years, Zhang Ruochen lost two thousand years of life. Moreover, this situation will continue.

Without enough longevity energy to support him, Zhang Ruochen felt uncertain and could not afford to spend it.

Secondly, only by eating the Holy Fruit of Evolution can Zhang Ruochen's cultivation level be rapidly improved in a short period of time to cope with the complex, extreme, and dangerous environment inside the Dark Star.

After eating seven Holy Fruits of Evolution, Zhang Ruochen spent three years breaking thirteen shackles in a row.

Now, the total number of shackles that have been broken has reached twenty-seven. The demigod's body has become more powerful, and more divine power can be unleashed.

Swallowing a large amount of Yi Dao Sacred Fruit also has a greater benefit, which can assist in the cultivation of high-level holy arts.

In the past three years, Zhang Ruochen has mastered swordsmanship, practiced boxing, and practiced palm training. He has also studied the sacred art of time and the sacred art of space in the "Secret Code of Time and Space", a kung fu book collected by the Blood Jue God of War in the Seven-Star Imperial Palace.

In addition to the gods and demons suppressing the prison, Zhang Ruochen also practiced three Qianwen level high-level holy arts, all of which reached the level of minor success. The only thing left to achieve success is time and practice.

The three Qianwen-level high-level holy arts are:

A holy leg technique that can complement Yanshen's legs.

A sacred fire technique that can perfectly utilize the power of the pure and extinguishing divine fire.

There is another type that belongs to the space category. Zhang Ruochen doesn't know if he should classify it as a Qianwen-level high-level holy art. However, its cultivation difficulty is slightly higher than that of the Qianwen-level high-level holy art.

To achieve such an achievement, the Holy Fruit of Yi Dao played a big role.

Otherwise, in just three years, it would be impossible to master even one, let alone three Qianwen-level high-level holy arts. To be precise, it may not be possible to achieve one in thirty years.

Zhang Ruochen spent most of his energy on swordsmanship. Whether it was Sword Eleven or the fifth level of Time Sword Technique "Glory Moon Cantabile", there were breakthrough improvements.

The only regret is that I failed to integrate the sixth holy meaning into the yin-yang and five-element holy meaning.

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen was alone, standing on the top of the purple gold gourd, with his hands behind his back and looking ahead.

After three years of searching for dark space-time matter to no avail, I have some doubts and restlessness in my heart.

Dark space-time matter is just Prajna's guess and may not really exist.

If you continue to spend time here, you may just waste your life in vain.

"With my current strength, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat Wujiang in his heyday. On the entire Huntian battlefield, the only ones that can still pose a threat to me are Que and Emperor Chi. As for Greed Baby, Yama Emperor Tu, and Luo Shengtian, although they are ranked It’s higher than Wujiang, but its combat power is so much stronger than Wujiang that it should be limited.”

Zhang Ruochen was thinking repeatedly about whether to leave the Dark Star now.

However, another question came to mind. As Prajna said, his goal was to be number one in the Hunting Battle, not to defeat a certain opponent in a one-on-one battle.

In the final decisive battle, it is very likely that he will face more than one powerful enemy.

At that time, dark space-time matter can become the biggest trump card.

Regardless of whether it can be used or not, having it in your hands is better than nothing.

In the past two years, Prajna has been staying inside the Purple Gold Gourd.

Her longevity is far inferior to that of Zhang Ruochen and she cannot afford to spend it.

Fortunately, two years ago, Zhang Ruochen arranged a time formation on the purple gold gourd, which could, to a certain extent, resist the erosion of longevity by time.

As long as you stay inside the gourd, your longevity consumption will be one-tenth that of the outside.

Because of the time formation, even though Zhang Ruochen stayed outside the gourd for a long time, controlling the gourd and searching for dark space-time matter, his longevity was only consumed for two thousand years instead of three thousand years.

"Don't be impatient. You should be calmer. Take this opportunity to understand the path of darkness. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle."

Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath, sat down cross-legged, and adjusted his emotions.

The interior of the Dark Star is filled with a large number of dark rules, making it an excellent place to understand the ways of darkness.

In the hell world, many monks have practiced the dark ways, including the heavenly ways of various tribes, many of which are derived from the dark ways. The deeper you understand the ways of darkness, the easier it will be to deal with the great saints and powerful men in the hell realm in the future.

When practicing, time always flies by.

Another seven years have passed.

Zhang Ruochen not only cultivated all three new Qianwen-level high-level holy arts to great perfection, but also made greater breakthroughs in the way of swordsmanship, the way of space, the way of time, and the way of darkness.

After ten years of training, coupled with the consumption of the Supreme Holy Artifact, Zhang Ruochen's sacred stones have been exhausted.

We can’t continue to waste it, it’s time to decide whether to go or stay.

"Shua——"

A winding Styx River flew out from the mouth of the gourd.

Prajna stepped on the Styx and floated to the surface of the gourd. He looked at the upright Zhang Ruochen, hesitated for a moment, walked over and said: "Ten years! It seems that I was wrong. This dark star has not been conceived at all. Out of dark space-time matter.”

For ten years, Prajna has been using the rules of destiny to analyze the Blue Marrow Star, and has obtained a large amount of inheritance from the True Lord Blue Marrow.

Her cultivation level has improved tremendously.

Zhang Ruochen said: "In ten years, your Way of Darkness, Way of Space, and Way of Time have all improved tremendously. Your purpose of coming to the Dark Star is not to find dark space-time matter, but to practice and make breakthroughs. Take a shortcut and catch up with the other two goddess candidates, Feng Hou and Yanhong Monkey King.”

It is not a good thing to practice multiple ancient ways at the same time.

If you are greedy for too much, you will achieve nothing.

However, in Prajna, Zhang Ruochen did not find the manifestation of greed and self-error. On the contrary, various ancient ways can complement each other and converge at the door of the true self.

The level of gaze at her True Self Gate has more than doubled compared to before entering the Dark Star.

Prajna stared at Zhang Ruochen for a long time and said, "Do you think I am using your power to help me achieve a breakthrough in my cultivation? Yes, I am using you."

Zhang Ruochen observed her eyes carefully, shook his head and said, "You always don't like explanations and insist on me finding the truth and answers myself. You know, this makes me really tired."

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen had a feeling, and his pupils quickly shrank, looking into the distant void behind Prajna.

"Perhaps, I have found the answer, dark space-time matter has appeared!"

About seven hundred miles away from the Zijin Gourd, a black fog appeared, with rain in the fog. The raindrops rotate and fly, forming a huge vortex.

In the center of the whirlpool, you can vaguely see a yellow copper tripod.
