God Emperor

Ao Xinyan shook her head and sighed, showing a struggling expression, obviously still unable to accept failure.

She has always been the best prodigy, and everyone is praising her. It was the first time she tasted the taste of failure, and it was so painful. It even made her doubt her own strength.

Zhang Ruochen said no more.

Ao Xinyan has a problem with her own mentality, and she must overcome it by herself. What Zhang Ruochen should say has been said, and the next step is to see whether she can defeat her inner demons.

If she could get over the shadow of failure, her state of mind and martial arts would surely reach a higher level.

If she cannot get out of the shadow, her cultivation speed will definitely become slower and slower in the future, and she may even be unable to break through to the fish-dragon realm.

Zhang Ruochen was about to leave when suddenly, a voice sounded, "Wait a minute."

Zhang Ruochen turned around and saw the man who had been standing next to Xu Hai walking towards him.

This man looked quite mature, a little tall and thin, but his face was very sick. He stood opposite Zhang Ruochen and said, "I, Pei Ji, also want to learn Junior Brother Zhang's supreme swordsmanship."

"Pei Ji, such a familiar name, could it be that... you are the 41st on the "Heavenly List", the Bloody Hand Butcher, Pei Ji?" Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised.

"Yes, it's me." The man said.

Zhang Ruochen observed Pei Ji carefully and could not associate the man in front of him with the words "bloody-handed butcher". This man looked more like a frail scholar.

Being able to become the 41st master on the "Tian Ranking", Pei Ji's name can be said to be prestigious and prestigious in the Eastern Region.

Pei Ji, like Xu Hai, was a student of the previous class and had been practicing in the Holy Academy for ten years.

Hearing the name "Pei Ji", even Ao Xinyan, who was standing aside a little lost, looked shocked. She did not expect that a master like Pei Ji, who had been famous for many years, would take the initiative to challenge the new generation Zhang Ruochen.

Although Zhang Ruochen is very strong, he is still far behind top players like Pei Ji.

Anyway, Ao Xinyan absolutely did not believe that Zhang Ruochen was Pei Ji's opponent.

There was a smile in Xi Yunxi's eyes, "Xu Hai invited Pei Ji out, now Zhang Ruochen will be in trouble!"

"In the Eastern Region, under the Fish and Dragon Realm, there are only two or three people who can fight with Pei Ji. Zhang Ruochen is still far behind." Zuo Qiuling folded his hands in front of his chest, ready to watch the show.

"Wow!"

Pei Ji stood still, but behind him, a blood-red demonic figure condensed. It was three feet tall, with three heads and six arms. Three loud roars came out from the mouths of the three heads, and suddenly a violent wave formed. Fengxuan.

That was not Pei Ji's martial spirit, but a ghost-level martial arts technique performed by Pei Ji, the blood magic form.

When Zhang Ruochen and Ao Xinyan fought, Pei Ji could tell at a glance that Zhang Ruochen's biggest weakness was that he had not developed ghost-level martial arts.

No matter how exquisitely the spiritual level martial arts are performed, they cannot be compared to the ghost level martial arts. Once Zhang Ruochen meets a truly strong person, he will suffer a lot.

Obviously, he, Pei Ji, is the real strong man.

"The blood magic phase destroys all living beings."

Pei Ji stood in the distance, twisting his waist, raising his arms, making a crackling sound of bones all over his body, and punched in the air.

The blood magic figure, guided by his power, also punched out a huge blood-red fist, like a blood cloud, and struck Zhang Ruochen.

Before the fist force could reach him, a hurricane had already blown up, seeming to blow Zhang Ruochen away.

"Uh-huh!"

Suddenly, Nie Honglou flew over from a distance and landed in front of Zhang Ruochen. He stretched one of his right arms forward and said one word, "Broken!"

Pei Ji's condensed blood magic phase was struck by a powerful force and instantly shattered, turning into wisps of blood mist and reintegrating into Pei Ji's body.

Pei Ji took fourteen steps back before barely regaining his footing. He stared at Nie Honglou and said coldly: "Who is meddling in other people's business?"

Xu Hai also took three steps forward, stood next to Pei Ji, and said: "Your Excellency has such a strong cultivation level, but no matter how strong you are, you should not get involved in this matter, it will not be good for you. ”

Nie Honglou curled up his lips and said: "The old generation of saints are fighting against the new generation of saints, using the big to bully the small, and the more to bully the less. What, I can't control it anymore?"

Xu Hai smiled and said: "Pei Ji and Zhang Ruochen are both at the Tianji realm, how come they bully the younger ones?"

"Pei Ji entered the Holy Court ten years ago. This year, he is close to fifty years old. Zhang Ruochen just entered the Holy Court today, and he is only in his early twenties. A fifty-year-old saint will be beaten by a twenty-year-old saint. A saint, is this called fairness?" Nie Honglou said sarcastically.

"have a finger in the pie."

Xu Hai's eyes turned cold, he pulled out the two swords on his back, mobilized his whole body's true energy and injected it into the sword body.

Two war swords, one emitting flame light, the other emitting biting cold air, the two forces merged together to form a huge sword circle, attacking Nie Honglou.

Xu Hai's cultivation has broken through the limits of a warrior and reached the stage of the first transformation of fish and dragon into "innate fetal breath".

He also used low-grade ghost-level swordsmanship, but the power that exploded was many times more powerful than Ao Xinyan's Biluo swordsmanship.

It's not that Biluo's swordsmanship is inferior to Xu Hai's swordsmanship, but Ao Xinyan's cultivation is far inferior to Xu Hai's.

It is also Dacheng's low-grade ghost-level swordsmanship. Different people will of course have different powers.

Nie Honglou shook his head gently, stretched out a palm as white as jade, channeled his true energy, and pushed forward.

"boom!"

Xu Hai was shaken, vomited blood, and flew out.

With a bang, Xu Hai fell more than ten feet away, and his whole body was in pain.

Under the impact of the powerful force, the skin on his body cracked with more than ten long blood lines. If Nie Honglou's power were a little stronger, he would probably be able to break his body into pieces.

Pei Ji, Xi Yunxi, Zuo Qiuling and others all changed their expressions and stared at Nie Honglou in shock.

They didn't know Nie Honglou's strength, but they knew Xu Hai's strength.

When Xu Hai was in the Tianji Realm, he once entered the top 100 on the "Tian Ranking" and broke through to the Fish and Dragon Realm. His cultivation level was even more unfathomable.

However, Xu Hai was vulnerable to Nie Honglou.

So, how powerful is Nie Honglou?

Nie Honglou retracted his palm, stared at Xu Hai who was lying on the ground convulsing and trembling, and said calmly: "You are not worthy of fighting with me, unless the holy body of Xu Sheng's family comes out of seclusion, otherwise, from now on, you'd better do it Be more restrained. Next time, it won’t be as simple as just giving you a slap.”

"You...who are you?" Xu Hai put his hands on the ground and struggled to get up from the ground.

"Nie Honglou!" Nie Honglou said.

After saying this, Zhang Ruochen and Nie Honglou turned around and left, disappearing into the distance.

"Nie Honglou...Nie Honglou...could it be him."

Pei Ji's face turned pale and he stared at Xu Hai.

Xu Hai covered his chest, nodded, and said: "He should be the one with such great strength! He is one year older than us. Twenty years ago, he was the youngest in the first group of the Kendo Department. Saint, his strength can be ranked in the top ten of the first group. It is said that he had some disputes with the leader of the first group of swordsmanship at that time, and then left the Holy Academy. Unexpectedly, he came back! "

Xi Yunxi said: "Senior Brother Xu, what should we do now? With Nie Honglou supporting Zhang Ruochen, no one in the Holy Court can deal with Zhang Ruochen."

Xu Hai snorted coldly and said: "So what about Nie Honglou? The holy body of our Xusheng clan is about to be released from seclusion. By then, even ten Nie Honglou will not be able to protect Zhang Ruochen. In the holy courtyard, Although we can't kill Zhang Ruochen, we can humiliate him severely to see if he can have the dignity to compete for the position of Young Master in the future."

"That's great! It is said that the holy body of the Xu Saint clan is in retreat to attack the ninth transformation of fish and dragon. Once successful, he will definitely become an invincible existence among the saints." Pei Jidao.

Xu Hai said with a gloomy face: "Xi Yunxi, Zuo Qiuling, you continue to monitor Zhang Ruochen's every move. According to my guess, Zhang Ruochen will definitely go to the Xujie battlefield to attack the supreme realm of Tianji realm. If you can borrow it, If we take this opportunity to get rid of him, we won’t have to disturb the holy body of our Xusheng clan for this trivial matter.”

Xi Yunxi and Zuo Qiuling nodded, agreed, and left immediately.

After leaving the Holy Mountain, Zhang Ruochen went to the library in the Holy Courtyard.

Nie Honglou did not go with him, but went to visit some of his old friends in the Holy Courtyard.

The two of them were temporarily separated.

The library pavilion of the Holy Court has a total of thirteen floors, built underground, forming an inverted tower shape.

The library has a long history and is all-encompassing. It contains countless tens of thousands of books, including bone books engraved on bones, iron scrolls engraved on iron sheets, jade books, bamboo slips, etc.

Secret books on martial arts, unique martial arts, illustrated formations, chapters on beast control, and humanities and geography can all be found here.

Zhang Ruochen came to the Library Pavilion not to read the secret books of martial arts and martial arts, but to look for books about the Ruin Realm.

This type of books is divided into the "Human Geography" area and is placed on the first floor of the library.

Before Zhang Ruochen came, many new saints had come to the library with a strong desire for knowledge.

However, they were reading books on martial arts and special skills, and most of them went directly to the second and third floors of the library. Very few people stayed on the first floor.

After all, the books on the first level record almost all basic common sense.

"The Ten Most Forbidden Lands in the Kunlun Realm", "Collection of Overseas Islands", "Eight Great Medieval Families in the Divine Land of the Eastern Region"...

Zhang Ruochen searched for about half an hour and finally found a copy of "A Brief Introduction to the Three Thousand Ruins Realm".

This book is very thick, but the words written on it are very small. If you don't pour the Qi into your eyes and look directly, you can only see small black dots on the pages.

Obviously, the senior who wrote this book is also an expert.
