God Emperor

Zhang Ruochen wrote two letters, one to Mu Lingxi and one to Orange Moon Star Envoy. The content of the letter was, of course, asking them to help investigate the details of the Qi family and Qi Feiyu.

There are differences between the two letters.

Zhang Ruochen did not give special instructions for the letter to Mu Lingxi. He just asked Han Xue to send it over and must hand it over to Mu Lingxi personally.

However, in the letter sent to Orange Moon Star Envoy, Zhang Ruochen specifically reminded Han Xue to be careful.

Although Orange Moon Star Envoy did not publicize Zhang Ruochen's identity, it did not fully prove her loyalty. If she intended to harm Han Xue, Han Xue would never be her opponent with her experience.

Han Xue took the two letters and asked: "Master, there is no specific address on the letter. How can I find the two sisters?"

"They say it's all about experience, so naturally you have to rely on your ability to find them."

Before leaving, Zhang Ruochen handed "Sword One" and a small gourd containing the holy spring to Han Xue, and said: "Don't slack off when you are training outside. When you come back from training, I will assess you again. The results of practice.”

Han Xue clenched her pink fists tightly and said extremely seriously: "Xue'er will definitely not let Master down."

Evil Emperor City is a paradise for evil monks, and Zhang Ruochen would certainly not trust Han Xue to go there alone, so he sent Demon Ape and Guo Guo to accompany her for training.

Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei personally sent them out of Liangyi Sect.

Xiao Hei was still a little worried. He stared at Demon Ape and Guo Guo with cold eyes and said, "You two, you must remember to take good care of Xiao Xue'er. If anything goes wrong, I will not spare you."

The Demon Ape punched his chest and said breathlessly: "Don't worry, Mr. Hei, unless it's a semi-saint who takes action, otherwise, whoever dares to touch Xue'er, I will blow his head off with one punch."

Han Xue stood on the left shoulder of the demon ape, waved to Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei, and gradually disappeared on the horizon.

Demon Ape and Guo Guo, one is violent and the other is shrewd. With them protecting Han Xue, it is almost impossible to encounter too much danger.

Zhang Ruochen stopped worrying, turned around and left, returning to Zixia Lingshan.

There are still eight days left before the sword competition. Zhang Ruochen will of course take this opportunity to continue practicing and improve his strength every point.

Sitting cross-legged under the sacred tree that connects the sky, Zhang Ruochen poured out all the holy springs in the space ring and put them into two wish-fulfilling vases.

Holding up the wish-fulfilling vase, Zhang Ruochen gently drank a sip of the holy spring, about ten drops.

Immediately, a stream of cold liquid poured into the body, turning into seven-colored light at an extremely fast speed, blending into the blood and Qi of the whole body.

"Wow!"

A seven-color halo immediately formed around Zhang Ruochen's body, like a ring-shaped rainbow, showing colors of red, orange, red, green, cyan, blue and purple, wrapping his body.

After completely absorbing the holy water in his body, Zhang Ruochen found that not only his cultivation had been strengthened a lot, but his understanding of the way of the sword had also deepened.

"It is indeed a treasure that everyone wants to get. Just one sip can have such a wonderful effect. No wonder Qi Feiyu, with his eighth transformation of fish dragon, would be so angry if a gourd holy spring was stolen. ”

Zhang Ruochen continued to drink from the holy spring and began to practice with all his strength.

It took a month for Zhang Ruochen to drink the holy water from the first holy spring of the Ten Gourds.

With the help of the power of the Holy Spring and his diligent study and practice, he finally cultivated Jianyi to the eighth level.

Unfortunately, after drinking ten gourds of holy spring, Zhang Ruochen's body reached its limit. Even if he continued to take the holy spring, the effect would be minimal.

Zhang Ruochen didn't know that the other saint disciples only had significant effects when they drank the first gourd. People with extremely good talents can only drink four or five gourds at most before they reach their limit.

"The holy water in the first holy spring should be different from the holy water in the second holy spring."

Zhang Ruochen took out the holy water containing the second holy spring and took a sip. Suddenly, seven colors of brilliance flowed rapidly through his body and went straight to the sea of ​​​​qi between his eyebrows, making his brain extremely clear.

It took another month and a half to drink about ten gourds of holy water from the second holy spring, and Zhang Ruochen immediately cultivated Jianyi to the ninth level.

Because of the assistance of the Holy Spring, Zhang Ruochen's comprehension speed was greatly increased, saving most of the time.

"If you can get the holy water from the third holy spring and drink ten gourds again, you should have a chance to reach the tenth level of Jianyi's Great Perfection state." Zhang Ruochen said to himself.

With his current level of swordsmanship, he already has a great chance of passing the first level of the third mountain.

He only needs to wait until the first day of the next month, and he can continue to break through the levels and collect the holy water from the third holy spring.

Of course, before that, the next sword competition must be dealt with.

Zhang Ruochen checked it out and found that under the nourishment of the holy spring, the cultivation of the fourth fish-dragon transformation peak had been completely consolidated. The energy in the whole body was quite abundant and round, without any rejection.

If time permits, he can try to open up a second holy vein now and achieve the fifth transformation of fish-dragon.

It's a pity that the time for the sword competition is today, and now, he can only suppress his cultivation for the time being.

After leaving the picture scroll world, Zhang Ruochen, Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji went to the Shangqing Palace to participate in the swordsmanship competition in the Seventy-Two Courtyards of the Three Palaces of the Liangyi Sect.

Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji have refined the black water glazed crystals into water spirit treasure bodies, and have broken through to the second transformation of fish and dragon, reaching the state of "refining skin into gold".

Because of their great improvement in cultivation, the two of them suddenly felt confident. When they walked, they held their heads high and raised their eyes, looking scornful at anyone they saw.

Of course, they didn't dare to be too arrogant in front of Zhang Ruochen.

Xun Hualiu said: "Boss, you must be careful during the sword competition. If you lose, you must admit defeat immediately."

"Why?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Xun Hualiu's eyes were a little cold, and he snorted coldly: "There are many people within the sect who are jealous of your luck and charm. Especially those suitors of Senior Sister Qi, several of whom have already said that they are going to I will humiliate you on the sword fighting stage. I even heard that someone is plotting to take this opportunity to kill you."

Zhang Ruochen said: "The sword competition should be supervised by the Half-Saint Patriarch. If anyone dares to kill someone intentionally, how can the Half-Saint Patriarch ignore it?"

Mujiji sighed: "Although the martial arts competition within the sect has always required that no one's life be hurt. But you don't know that every time the outer sect competition or the inner sect competition, there are no disciples because of Killed the opponent by mistake? Besides, the higher the level of cultivation, the greater the possibility of accidents."

"I see."

Zhang Ruochen nodded. Although he was not afraid, he secretly took note of Xun Hualiu and Mu Jiji's words.

It is better to be more prepared than not to be prepared at all.

Upon arriving at Shangqing Palace, the three of them separated and went to different venues.

The place Zhang Ruochen wanted to go was naturally the fighting stage at the eighth transformation level of fish and dragon.

Competition stages of different levels are built in different places and equipped with formations of different levels. There are four competition platforms in total for the Eighth Transformation of Fish and Dragon, located on Zhiyuling Mountain in Shangqing Palace.

The four battle platforms are quite tall. They are made entirely of red blood spirit stones weighing ten thousand kilograms. They are twenty feet high and thirty feet long and wide. They are like four cylindrical stone mountains, exuding a majestic momentum.

Not only is the area of ​​​​the battle platform relatively larger, it is convenient for the monks in the eighth transformation of fish and dragon to display powerful swordsmanship and martial arts.

And more importantly, there is a top-level defensive formation around the battle platform, which can withstand the full blow of the half-saint.

Therefore, no matter how fiercely the monks of the Eighth Form of Fish-Dragon clash on the battlefield, the aftermath of the battle will not spill out.

There are a total of 368 monks who have signed up to participate in the Eighth Transformation of Fish and Dragon. In addition to the disciples of the Holy Tradition, there are also a large number of elders in blue.

The biggest difference between Elder Qingyi and the disciples of the Holy Tradition is that they only broke through to the Fish-Dragon Realm after they were sixty years old.

Theoretically speaking, due to limited qualifications, it would be difficult for Elder Qingyi to cultivate beyond the seventh transformation of fish and dragon.

However, the Qingyi elder who can cultivate to the eighth transformation of fish and dragon must be a very remarkable existence, even more powerful than the disciples of the Holy Tradition in some aspects. It is only because of some special reasons that he failed to break through before the age of sixty. To the fish and dragon realm.

It is not always possible to see the fight between strong men in the Eighth Transformation of Fish and Dragon. Those inner disciples who are unable to participate in the sword competition will certainly not miss such a rare opportunity to observe.

When Zhang Ruochen came to the bottom of the competition platform, many inner disciples had already gathered at Zhiyuling Mountain. It could be said that it was a sea of ​​people, boiling and lively to the extreme.

Every time a contestant of the Eighth Transformation of Fish and Dragon arrives, it will immediately cause a huge sensation.

"Elder Dao Xuanqi has arrived. It is said that he is one hundred and fifty years old and has always been the first Qingyi elder of the Law Enforcement Court. I didn't expect that even he would participate in the swordsmanship competition. With his advanced cultivation level, , it’s definitely not difficult to get into the top ten.”

"Uncle Xu Changsheng is also here. His cultivation is unparalleled and he is the favorite among the top three."

"Look, Senior Sister Qi Feiyu appears. She has climbed to the top of the second mountain of the Ancient God Mountain at such a young age. She definitely has the talent to become a sword master."

Every monk who has achieved the Eighth Transformation of Fish and Dragon is a great figure in the Liang Yi Sect. Normally, all of them are aloof and it is difficult to see any of them.

Only on a big day like today can we see them appear at the same time.

Some of them are elders who have been famous for nearly a hundred years, and some are young heroes who are famous all over the world.

Zhang Ruochen's arrival, of course, caused quite a stir. Although no one thought highly of him, he was still the number one figure now, and his talent in swordsmanship was so great that it was unacceptable for anyone to be dissatisfied.
