God Emperor

The group of women locked in the dungeon huddled in the corner. Among them, a rather neatly dressed girl stood up carefully and walked towards Zhang Ruochen.

She still looked a little scared and said in a low voice: "You... you are not a disciple of Master Long Ze, are you?"

Zhang Ruochen glanced at her. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with snow-white skin and a pretty face. She was definitely the most beautiful among the group of women.

Moreover, the clothes she wore were made of high-quality materials. She must be the daughter of a certain noble.

The most important thing is that there is a faint fluctuation of mana on her body, and she is not an ordinary person.

Zhang Ruochen said: "No."

The girl immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I am Xue Yiyi, the daughter of the lord of Xueye City in the Gilded Federation. Yesterday, I was captured by Master Longze's eldest disciple, Master Daye, and came to Demon Ape Ridge. I asked you to save me. Let's get out of here."

Xue Yiyi could see that Zhang Ruochen was very strong.

He was trapped in the dungeon, but his expression remained unchanged. Such a character was definitely not simple.

Although, Xue Yiyi didn't think Zhang Ruochen could defeat Master Longze.

With her strength, it was impossible to escape. With such a master by her side, there was always a glimmer of hope.

If she was to stay in the dungeon and serve the old and ugly Archmage Long Ze, she might as well hit her head against the wall and take her own life, which would save her from being abused.

Zhang Ruochen stared at the girl named Xue Yiyi, pondered for a moment, and said, "Since you are the daughter of the city lord, you should have broad knowledge! As long as you answer some of my questions, I can promise to save you from here."

Next, Zhang Ruochen asked Xue Yiyi carefully about some news about the Five Elements Ruins.

After half an hour of detailed discussion, Zhang Ruochen had some general understanding of the Five Elements Ruins world.

The Five Elements Ruins Realm is a continent suspended in the void, equivalent to a "round sky and a square place". No country was born, only a federation of cities.

There are ten federations in total, and the Gilded Federation is one of them.

The Gilded Federation is composed of twelve cities that form alliances, trade with each other, and build armies to resist the attacks of barbaric beasts on the human race.

In addition to the three major federations, there are also three holy temples and two evil palaces in the Five Elements Market Realm, namely: Holy Fire Palace, Holy Water Palace, Holy Earth Palace, Evil Gold Palace, and Evil Wood Palace.

Among the five spiritual treasures mentioned by the weapon spirit in "Tianbang", the "Source of Spiritual Fire" is the sacred object of the Holy Fire Palace.

"Purple Cloud Agarwood" is the treasure of Xiemu Palace.

As for the other three spiritual treasures, Xue Yiyi had only heard their names and didn't know where they were.

"There are really problems in "Tianbang". The source of spiritual fire and Ziyun Agarwood are both placed in the temple and the evil palace. How easy is it to get them? The other three spiritual treasures are probably not that easy to get either. ”

Zhang Ruochen is very confident in his own strength, but he is not arrogant. It is impossible for him to defeat the strongest force in the lower world by himself.

It is said that the master of the Holy Fire Palace is known as the number one master in the "Five Elements Ruins Realm".

Based on Xue Yiyi's description, Zhang Ruochen roughly guessed that the strength of the Lord of the Holy Fire Palace is estimated to be comparable to that of a strong person in the fourth transformation of the Fish-Dragon Realm, and may even be stronger.

Moreover, in the history of the three major temples, there have been existences of the semi-saint level. Although the semi-saints died, they must have left behind some powerful means. If a warrior in the Tianji Realm dares to venture into it, he will only end up in a dead end.

"The weapon spirit of "Tianbang" said that even half-saints will fight for those five spiritual treasures when they encounter them, which can save ten years of hard work. If I get one of them, maybe I can break through to the Tianji realm in a short time. Even if it’s dangerous, you have to fight even if you are in the extreme position of Xiaoji.”

Zhang Ruochen's eyes gradually became firm, and he secretly made up his mind to go for it no matter how dangerous it was.

Xue Yiyi sat aside and saw that Zhang Ruochen had not spoken for a long time and said: "Zhang Shaoxia, if we can escape, you can go to Xueye City. With my father's knowledge, he must know the whereabouts of the other three spiritual treasures."

Zhang Ruochen nodded and said: "If I have the chance, I will definitely go to Xueye City."

Zhang Ruochen stood up, stared at the metal wall of the dungeon, curled his lips slightly, and said with a smile: "I have already thought of a way to break the five elements array. Since you can't 'break gold with fire,' then 'break gold with gold.'"

Using gold to defeat gold is a competition of strength, using strength to defeat the strong, and using force to defeat force.

Whoever is stronger can defeat the other.

Zhang Ruochen mobilized his true energy and injected it into the dragon ball in his heart.

Immediately, a large amount of dragon energy surged out of the dragon ball, passing through the meridians and pouring into blood and flesh.

Zhang Ruochen's body was immediately wrapped in a layer of golden dragon scales, and his arms turned into sharp dragon claws.

"Wow!"

He waved his dragon claw and hit the metal wall.

Under the attack of the golden dragon claw, the metal wall was like tofu, and a large piece was easily grabbed off.

Seeing this scene, Xue Yiyi's face was startled, and she couldn't help but take two steps back. The strength of the young man in front of her was so terrifying. With a wave of her hand, she could pass through gold and stone. How powerful is this?

…

…………

Demonic Ape Ridge, a deep valley filled with poisonous miasma.

The man in yellow robe and the man in green robe knelt at the feet of Archmage Longze, their whole bodies trembling with fear, fearing that Archmage Longze would kill them both in a rage.

The man in yellow robe covered his chest with severe pain with one hand, his face was pale, and he said: "Disciple is incompetent and failed to block that young man. Please punish me, Master."

Master Longze sat cross-legged on the stone chair, with gloomy eyes, and said: "I don't blame you, this person is probably the extraordinary genius in the Holy Fire Palace, and you two are still far from him... ahem. "

While speaking, Archmage Longze coughed twice, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The man in yellow robe and the man in green robe quietly looked at each other, horrified in their hearts. The strength of that young man was too terrifying, and he actually injured the master.

The man in yellow robe said: "Master, what should we do now? That man is so powerful that the Five Elements Array alone may not be able to kill him."

Grand Master Longze sneered and said: "The Five Elements Array is extremely mysterious. Now it is just 'stone producing gold'. After a while, it will be 'gold producing water'. By then, the dungeon will be filled with extremely cold water. No matter how high his cultivation level is, he will still freeze to death in the water..."

"boom!"

Before Master Longze finished speaking, a muffled sound came from the ground.

The deep valley of miasma trembled violently, and a gap was torn open in the Five Elements Array by a burst of golden dragon energy.

Master Longze's expression changed and he shouted: "No! That kid is so powerful that he wants to escape from the Five Elements Array."

Master Longze knew that he was no match for Zhang Ruochen, so he immediately mobilized his magic power to bless himself and rushed into the depths of the valley.

"Wow!"

A golden beam of light soared into the sky from the deep well, reaching a height of 100 meters. When the light dissipated, a man's figure was revealed.

It was Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen used his Heavenly Eye and instantly saw the escaping Archmage Longze and shouted: "Where to escape?"

"Uh-huh!"

Using his movement skills, Zhang Ruochen rushed over Master Longze's head in a moment and struck out a golden dragon claw with five sharp claws, like five sharp swords.

Archmage Longze only felt that the surrounding scenes had all disappeared. His body was surrounded by walls of wind, and he could not move. Above his head, a huge golden claw as big as a mountain struck down, shocking his soul.

"No……"

The dragon's claw fell without stopping, smashing Master Longze's head into pieces. Blood-red cracks extended from the neck, through the chest, back, thighs, and feet.

With a bang, the entire body turned into pieces of flesh and blood.

Zhang Ruochen fell to the ground, looked at the bloody golden dragon claws, and said to himself: "I have obtained another hundred military merit points. Maybe I can accumulate ten thousand military merit points in the Five Elements Ruins Realm and enter "Heaven" List".

In less than half a day after arriving at the Five Elements Ruins Realm, he already had 142 points of military merit.

Zhang Ruochen accumulates military merit not only to enter the "Tianbang", but also to reach the supreme realm of Tianji realm.

Archmage Longze's body was reduced to pieces, with only the crystal staff inlaid with a skull still intact.

Zhang Ruochen picked up the crystal staff and used his mental power to examine it, and felt a strange cold air in the skull.

"Bang!"

Zhang Ruochen gathered his true energy and smashed the skull into pieces with one palm, turning it into white powder. On the top of the crystal staff, there was a black crystal the size of a thumb.

Faintly, you can see that there seems to be a trace of golden light flashing in the black crystal.

That strange icy air was released from that small piece of black crystal.

"What a pure water-attribute power fluctuation."

Zhang Ruochen let out a light sigh, wrapped his fingers with Qingxu Qi, carefully removed the black crystal, and used Qing Qi to refine it.

"Wow——"

The black crystal turned into wisps of black cold air, merged with Qingxu Qi, poured into Zhang Ruochen's palm, and entered the meridians and Qi sea.

"Pop!"

Zhang Ruochen made a series of explosions all over his body, and his bones, blood, and meridians were cleansed by the cold air, and there was a significant improvement.

"It's amazing. Just absorbing such a small piece of black crystal has improved my cultivation by a lot, which is comparable to the results of a month of hard training. Moreover, my physique seems to have also been strengthened, and there are signs on my bones. A trace of black ice lines appeared, and the strength increased a lot. "

"Could this be one of the five spiritual treasures mentioned by the weapon spirit of "Tianbang", the black water glazed crystal."

Zhang Ruochen became excited. He was certain that what he had just absorbed was the Black Water Glazed Crystal. It was the only one in the Five Elements Ruins Realm that had such a wonderful effect.

Just now, he only absorbed about one or two. If he can find more, it will not be difficult to break through the small extreme level of Tianji Realm.

"After seeing me rushing out of the dungeon, normal people would choose to escape from the valley, but Master Longze chose to escape deep into the valley. Is there any secret hidden deep in the valley?"

Thinking of the newly refined black water glazed crystal, Zhang Ruochen's heart moved and he was ready to go deep into the valley to find out.
