God Emperor

As Zhang Ruochen's realm became higher and higher, he needed to refine more Xuanwu Holy Blood to improve his cultivation.

It took Zhang Ruochen half a year to refine three drops of Xuanwu Holy Blood, and he was promoted from the early stage of the fourth transformation of the fish dragon to the peak of the fourth transformation of the fish dragon.

It should be noted that in the third transformation of the fish dragon, he only refined one drop and reached the peak realm.

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen's meridians were filled with a violent true qi. Part of the true qi that exceeded his tolerance surged out of his pores, floating in the air, forming a three-meter-long Xuanwu phantom.

Refining Xuanwu Holy Blood did indeed rapidly improve Zhang Ruochen's cultivation and hit the peak of the fourth transformation of the fish dragon. However, the increased power was not yet fully matched with Zhang Ruochen's own power.

The newly added blood and true qi still carried the breath of Qinghuo Xuanwu, forming a counter-repulsive force with Zhang Ruochen's true qi and blood.

Zhang Ruochen did not continue to refine the fourth drop of Xuanwu Holy Blood. He stretched out a palm, mobilized the true qi in his body, and transported the powerful true qi to the meridians of his arm, and it flowed out from the palm.

Faintly, Zhang Ruochen felt that the meridians in his arm were slightly tingling, and his own true qi and the newly added true qi were colliding with each other.

So, Zhang Ruochen immediately took back some of his true qi and slowed down the flow of true qi, and the tingling in his arm meridians disappeared immediately.

"My cultivation has reached the peak of the fourth transformation of the fish dragon. Even if I continue to refine the Xuanwu Holy Blood, it is impossible to immediately impact the fifth transformation of the fish dragon."

"From now on, I must let my cultivation settle for a while, refine the blood and true qi in my body to be more rounded, and integrate them with my own blood and true qi, and thoroughly consolidate my realm, so that I can open up the second holy meridian and impact the fifth transformation of the fish dragon."

Although he broke through to the peak of the fourth transformation of the fish dragon and his cultivation increased dramatically, Zhang Ruochen's utilization rate of true qi was still very low, and he could only exert 50% or 60% of his 100% strength at most.

In other words, his current state is not stable, and he cannot perfectly display his growing power. In the fourth transformation of the fish dragon, he still has a lot of room for improvement.

Of course, even with his current strength, it has improved a lot compared to before.

Zhang Ruochen took back his true energy, stopped practicing, took out the ancient sword of Shenyuan, and began to practice swordsmanship.

"Shua shua."

He just raised the sword casually, and suddenly, dozens of sword-shaped sword qi appeared around him.

In an instant, the whole person's temperament became very noble and sharp, as if he turned into a white-clothed sword saint.

With his legs apart, Zhang Ruochen quickly swung a sword, dragging out a long sword qi, turning into a sword path of more than 20 feet long, flying into the distance.

The strong sword qi split the ground in two, leaving a deep crack in the ground.

"Heavenly Heart Points the Way."

"Heavenly Heart Full Moon."

...

Having reached the seventh level of Sword One, Zhang Ruochen's understanding of the sword is many times more thorough than before. A simple set of lower-grade spiritual-level Tianxin swordsmanship was performed, and it actually burst out with the power of lower-grade ghost-level swordsmanship.

After performing the last sword, Zhang Ruochen put away the ancient sword of Shenyuan again.

"There are ten levels of Jianyi. Logically, the further you go, the harder it is to practice, and the more time it takes. But with the guidance of the three sword-intention airflows, my practice speed in the sword has only slowed down a little bit."

"At my current practice speed, at most one year, I can practice Jianyi to the tenth level of perfection. If it is faster, it will only take eight months to succeed."

Not only did he reach the seventh level of Jianyi's comprehension, Zhang Ruochen found that the heart of the sword in the sea of ​​qi had become crystal clear, like a crystal gem, emitting dazzling light.

According to Zhang Ruochen's judgment, this is the performance of the sword realm, which is about to break through to the high level of Jianxin Tongming.

The rapid progress of the sword realm must be related to the three sword-intention airflows.

The results of this retreat still made Zhang Ruochen quite satisfied.

Half a year had passed in the world of the scroll, and nearly twenty days had passed in the outside world. Zhang Ruochen calculated that today was the first day of March.

On the first day of every month, the Ancient God Mountain would be open to the disciples of the Holy Transmission.

Whether it was because of his curiosity about the Ancient God Mountain or to investigate the Heaven and Earth Altar, Zhang Ruochen had to go and try it.

Zhang Ruochen walked out of the world of the scroll and returned to Zixia Lingshan.

"Hei Ye, don't add more fire, please, don't add more... Don't... I'm almost cooked..."

Outside the room, the cries of Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji were heard.

"Squeak!"

Zhang Ruochen pushed open the door and walked out, only to see that there were two ten-foot-high triangular copper furnaces in the yard. The copper furnaces were full of various herbs and animal blood, emitting a strong pungent smell.

Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji were soaking in the boiling copper furnaces, and the wailing sounds coming from the furnaces were getting louder and louder.

Xiao Hei arranged two flame formations under the copper furnace, and kept putting fire-attributed spirit crystals into the formations, making the flames in the formations become more and more vigorous.

The two bronze medicine furnaces have burned red, which shows how terrible the temperature in the furnaces is.

Xiao Hei stood up, put his two paws behind his back, paced around the two copper furnaces, and snorted coldly: "After physical training every day, you must use medicine blood to temper your body to maximize the results of your practice. Only those who endure hardships can become superior people."

"Master Hei, I can't... bear it anymore!"

From the furnace on the left, Mujiji screamed.

Xiao Hei's eyes widened and he said: "If you can't carry it, you have to carry it. You two are so blessed that you don't know how blessed you are. You must know that the medicinal blood in the copper furnace is used by the Dragon Clan to cultivate cubs. In addition to the Dragon Clan, , I’m afraid only this emperor knows the formula.”

"Of course, some of the medicines and animal blood are too precious and were not added in. Therefore, the medicine blood you use only has about 20 to 30% of the potency of the dragon medicine blood. With your fish-dragon first transformation If your cultivation level can’t handle 20 to 30% of the medicine’s power, wouldn’t it be useless?”

"Using the dragon clan's secret medicinal blood to refine your body can not only refine the impurities in your body, but also strengthen your skin, blood, bones, and tendons. Let alone the second transformation of a mere fish-dragon, even if you have to break through in a short time The third transformation of fish and dragon is also possible. "

Zhang Ruochen walked under the two copper furnaces and asked, "Is the medicinal blood you prepared for them really the medicinal blood used by the Dragon Clan to cultivate cubs?"

"certainly."

Xiao Hei knew that Zhang Ruochen had left the world of picture scrolls, so he was not surprised at all. He raised his head and said: "How can I be ordinary if I take action? Their physiques are too poor. They must take strong medicine to truly grow." stand up."

"Using dragon medicine blood to refine their bodies, even if they cannot reach the level of dragon cubs, can at least make their bodies several times stronger than other monks of the same realm. Of course, this is also tempering their will. If If they can’t even pass this level, no matter how much resources you give them, they won’t be able to become strong.”

About an hour later, the blood in the medicine furnace had dried up, and Xiao Hei finally released Xunhualiu and Mujiji from the furnace.

Both of them were covered in a thick layer of black blood and mud, as if they had turned into two human bodies.

"Don't pretend to be dead! Today is the opening day of the Ancient God Mountain. If you miss it, you will have to wait until next month." Zhang Ruochen said.

"Snapped!"

"Snapped!"

Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji immediately broke through the black blood mud, and the dragon spirit tiger flew up fiercely, and then fell to the ground with two bangs.

Compared with twenty days ago, the two of them seemed to have been completely transformed. They exuded a powerful aura that only ferocious beasts could have, and a faint golden light appeared on the surface of their skin. They were no longer close to the second transformation of fish and dragon into the realm of "refining skin into gold". Far.

"Master Hei's methods are indeed powerful. Although he can torture people to death every time he practices, as long as he uses medicinal blood to temper his body, his injuries will be healed immediately, and his physical strength will obviously increase a lot." Mu. Jiji said.

Although Mu Jiji is still quite fat, Zhang Ruochen can clearly see that he has lost a lot of weight compared to before.

Xun Hualiu looked at his arms, very excited, and said with a blushing face: "Master Hei is so awesome! This is to train me, Xun Hualiu, to become a peerless master. How can a mere Panglong be my opponent?"

Xun Hualiu picked up Xiao Hei, put her mouth to hers, and kissed him wildly.

With a bang, Xiao Hei slapped out his claws and knocked Xunhualiu away ten feet away. He said contemptuously: "Stay away from me. With your current physique, you are still far away from being a peerless master."

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and smiled, and said: "You two, hurry up and change your clothes, it's time to set off!"

Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji put on the blue robes of holy disciples and rushed towards the ancient sacred mountain together with Zhang Ruochen.

The first day of every month is a very important day. Most of the disciples who rarely show up in public usually gather at the foot of the Ancient God Mountain, making the peaceful Ancient God Mountain become noisy and lively.

When Zhang Ruochen arrived at the gate of the Ancient God Mountain, he was slightly shocked by the sight before him. He was surrounded by holy disciples wearing blue robes. They were a large area of ​​black and white. They were the weakest in cultivation and the first to transform from fish to dragon.

You know, any saint disciple who goes outside is also a first-class strong man.

With so many saint disciples gathered together, they only need to be crushed, and it is estimated that in less than an hour, a saint's sect can be turned into a dead ruin with no survivors.

Among the three, only Mujiji had visited the ancient sacred mountain before and had some understanding of the ancient sacred mountain.

Mujiji said: "Actually, there were not so many people on the first day of the new year in the past. The main reason is that the sword competition is about to be held, and almost all the disciples who are practicing outside have returned to the sect."

"There are also some saintly disciples who are in seclusion and have stopped practicing and started to walk around. First, they are adjusting themselves and want to reach the best condition before the sword competition. Second, they want to find out who their competitors are in advance. to develop coping strategies.”
