God Emperor

Zhang Ruochen retracted the Soul-Snatching Sword and thrust it out quickly, passing through the gap between the claws and hitting the black cat's forehead, making a sound of metal collision and splashing sparks.

"Bang!"

The Soul-Snatching Sword, a fourth-grade Zhenwu treasure, could not break its physical defense.

The black cat's cultivation was not strong, equivalent to the cultivation of the Yellow Realm's small extreme. How could its defense be so terrifying?

"Haha! Although my cultivation is one small realm lower than yours, I have an indestructible body, superb martial arts, and ruthless means. I can fight across three small realms. With my current strength, even if I fight a warrior of the Yellow Realm's great perfection, I can fight to a draw. Young man, die! Meow!"

The black cat rushed towards Zhang Ruochen again, leaping two meters high, opening its mouth and biting Zhang Ruochen's shoulder.

"Heaven Heart Breaks Plum!"

Zhang Ruochen's true energy circulated throughout his body, and he thrust out with a sword, bursting out seven sword energies.

When the Soul-Sparkling Sword pierced the black giant cat, seven sword energies converged into one and hit the black giant cat's chin.

The black giant cat screamed again and fell heavily to the ground, shouting: "It hurts so much! It hurts so much! Young man, how can you be so strong? You are only at the middle level of the Yellow Realm, how can you burst out the power of the Yellow Realm?"

"You have a strong physique, don't I have one? If we are in the same realm, maybe I am a little weaker than you, but now I am one realm higher than you, you are definitely not my opponent." Zhang Ruochen walked over with the sword.

The black giant cat is indeed very strong. If they are in the same realm, maybe Zhang Ruochen is really not its opponent. After all, it has an immortal body and is invulnerable to swords and guns.

When the black cat saw Zhang Ruochen approaching, it said quickly, "Young man, I think since neither of us can do anything to the other, why should we continue fighting? Even if we continue fighting, it will be a waste of time. Why don't we sit down and have a good talk?"

The black cat's defense is indeed very strong. Even the Soul-Sparkling Sword cannot break its physical defense. If the battle continues, even if Zhang Ruochen can defeat it, he will definitely not be able to kill it.

Zhang Ruochen stopped and said, "If you can answer a few questions for me, I can negotiate with you temporarily."

The black giant cat sat on the ground, with its round belly, and said comfortably, "Ask! I know 100,000 years in the past and 100,000 years in the future. There is almost nothing I don't know about the world, the heavens, the earth, and the world!"

Zhang Ruochen said, "Why did the Xumi Saint Monk seal you in the Qiankun Divine Tree Map?"

"This is a long story! Back then, I committed a heinous crime, and the Xumi Saint Monk thought I was guilty, so he sealed me in the Qiankun Divine Tree Map." The black giant cat's big ears shook gently, and its eyes rolled around.

Zhang Ruochen said, "What heinous crime was it?"

"Killing people like flies, slaughtering people, causing trouble to the world, killing dragons to get gall, burning the sky and boiling the sea... Well, that's about it!" said the black giant cat. Zhang Ruochen stared at the fat body of the black giant cat and said, "It doesn't look like it!"

"Yes! I don't think it looks like it at all. It can be seen that the monk is unreasonable. He accuses me of a crime and seals me in the world space of the scroll. Alas! I don't know where to go to reason?" The black giant cat was lying on the ground with a big belly, shaking his head and sighing.

Zhang Ruochen said, "People who don't look like bad people are actually very bad. People who don't look like good people can sometimes do great and righteous things."

"I'm just a cat, don't think of me as so bad... Hey... kid, what are you doing?" The black giant cat said.

With a "whoosh", the black giant cat was put back into the Qiankun Divine Wood Map.

"Sure enough, just as I guessed, the power of the Qiankun Divine Wood Map can suppress you. I am now the owner of the Qiankun Divine Wood Map. As long as I move my mind, I can take you back into the world space of the scroll." Zhang Ruochen pinched the Qiankun Divine Wood Map and smiled slightly.

"Young man! You must stay calm. Let me out quickly. I promise to be loyal to you and will never have any other intentions in the future. You asked me to catch fish, but I dare not catch mice." The black giant cat said anxiously.

It has been trapped in the Qiankun Divine Tree for 100,000 years. It was not easy to regain its freedom. Naturally, it was unwilling to be taken back into the scroll.

Zhang Ruochen ignored it, put the Qiankun Divine Tree aside, and began to study the eight basic space inscriptions.

"Young man! If you want to engrave the basic space inscriptions, you must at least cultivate your mental power to the 20th level. How old are you now? It is impossible for you to have such a strong mental power! Let me out quickly, and I will teach you how to cultivate your mental power." The voice of the black giant cat came from the scroll.

"Twenty levels? My mental power has reached the 32nd level. Basic inscriptions are not difficult for me."

Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged on the ground, opened the "Secret Book of Time and Space", put it in front of him, and studied it carefully.

"How is it possible? The mental power of an ordinary adult is only about level 10. For a teenager like you, it's already very good to reach level 8. Even some people who are born with strong mental power can only reach level 15 at most before the age of 20. How can your mental power reach level 32?" The black giant cat said with some disbelief.

Zhang Ruochen was too lazy to pay attention to it and began to study the first basic space inscription, the point inscription.

The voice of the giant black cat sounded from the scroll again, saying: "Have you been practicing spiritual power since you were a child? That's not right! At your age, even if you have practiced spiritual power since you were young, you are very powerful if you can reach level 20. How can you reach level 3? Twelve levels of height? Young man, how can you blow better than me?"

For ordinary basic inscriptions, you only need to cultivate your mental power to the fifteenth level to have a chance to successfully engrave it.

However, the basic space inscriptions are very special. They are more complex and unstable than ordinary basic inscriptions. Only by cultivating the spiritual power to level 20 can they be carved.

"Wow!"

Zhang Ruochen condensed his true energy into his fingertips and pointed them out to form a point of light, trying to carve out dot-shaped inscriptions in the air.

I tried more than thirty times in a row, but all ended in failure.

"Haha! Let me tell you that you are bragging! To cultivate your mental power to level 20 or above is as difficult as climbing to the sky for ordinary warriors. It is even more difficult to carve out the basic inscriptions of space. Something." The giant black cat said mockingly.

Zhang Ruochen stopped and said to himself: "It is indeed very difficult to carve an inscription for the first time. Let's practice with spiritual paper and an inscription pen first!"

When alchemists and weapon refiners first learn inscriptions, they all practice on spiritual paper with an inscription pen. If you want to carve the first inscription on the spiritual paper, it will take at least more than a year of practice.

It was the first time Zhang Ruochen learned the inscription pattern, and he actually wanted to use his fingers to carve the inscription pattern in the air. Naturally, he couldn't succeed.

Zhang Ruochen stood up and planned to buy inscription pens and spiritual paper.

"Young man, take me out with you! I will definitely not cause trouble. I will listen to you in everything..."

Before the giant black cat finished speaking, Zhang Ruochen rolled up the Divine Tree of Heaven and Earth again, put it between his eyebrows, and walked out of the inner space of the space-time crystal.

Afterwards, Zhang Ruochen left the palace and headed towards Wushi.

As soon as Zhang Ruochen left the palace, a palace maid immediately rushed to Gongwan where the queen lived and passed the news to Han Qingluo.

"He finally left the palace? It's great! Arrange a team of people to come out of the palace with me. Tonight will be the night of the death of a young genius." Han Qingluo's eyes exuded a cold light, beautiful There was an evil smile on the corner of his mouth.

…

When Zhang Ruochen arrived at Wu City, he headed straight towards the Inscription Guild.

The Inscription Guild is one of the most powerful organizations in the Kunlun world and has an extremely long history. Before the First Central Empire was born, the Inscription Guild had already been born.

There are four major alliances under the Inscription Pattern Guild, namely: the Alchemist Alliance, the Weapon Refiner Alliance, the Beast Master Alliance, and the Strange People and Strangers Alliance.

Only at the Inscription Guild can you purchase "Inscription Pen" and "Spiritual Paper".

These two items are completely monopolized by the Inscription Guild and cannot be purchased anywhere else.

In the Kunlun world, every city has a branch of the Inscription Guild. As the royal city of Yunwu County, the Inscription Guild was naturally built very grandly, almost like a castle.

Outside the Inscription Pattern Guild, there is always a rush of traffic and a constant flow of people. Not only are there warriors, but also alchemists wearing blue robes can be seen.

An alchemist's robe is usually embroidered with an alchemy cauldron on the back.

The back of the weapon refiner's robe is usually embroidered with a hammer.

In addition to the alchemists and weapon refiners, there were also some beast masters who rode wild beasts majestically into the Inscription Guild.

A middle-aged man wearing an armorer's robe, who looked to be in his thirties, proudly walked towards the Inscription Guild with his chest puffed out.

"Meet Mr. Zorn Weapon Refiner!"

The guards standing outside the Inscription Guild all saluted him with a look of respect in their eyes.

"Yeah!" Zorn nodded and walked straight into the gate of the Inscription Guild without even looking at the guards.

"It's actually Mr. Zorn, the weapon refiner. It is said that his spiritual power has reached the twenty-sixth level, and he is a very powerful second-level weapon refiner."

"Master Zorn Weapon Refiner has taken in a total of seventeen disciples, eight of whom have become first-grade weapon refiners. In the royal city, there are so many warriors who want to take Master Zorn Weapon Refiner as their disciples that they are too numerous to count. Come."

"I heard that Mr. Zorn Weapon Refiner has very high requirements for accepting disciples. Those whose mental power cannot reach the twelfth level will not be accepted. Those who are over twenty years old will not be accepted."

"It is not easy to cultivate your spiritual power to the twelfth level before you are twenty years old. Only those who are true geniuses can do it."

…

At this time, Zhang Ruochen saw two familiar figures, it was Zhang Ji, the eighth prince, and Shan Xiangling, the daughter of the head of the Chiyun Sect.

They also came outside the Inscription Guild.

After the year-end assessment, the eighth prince's status in the palace plummeted.

His biological mother, Concubine Xiao, was banished to the cold palace, and at the same time, he also became the one with the lowest cultivation level among the nine princes. Under the double blow, the eighth prince was unable to recover.

Today, he accompanied Shan Xiangling to the Inscription Guild to become a disciple of Zorn's second-grade weapon refiner.

In terms of martial arts talent, he couldn't compare to Zhang Ruochen.

Therefore, he wanted to surpass Zhang Ruochen and regain his position through other means.
