God Emperor

Latest website: The rain has stopped.

The clouds have not cleared away, and the sky is still dark and somewhat cool.

Zhang Ruochen's power quickly dissipated, and the Buddha's light gradually became weaker, and he soon fell back to the fourth-level semi-saint realm.

Not only that, a strong feeling of weakness swept through the whole body from the inside out, and the holy energy in the sea of ​​qi and meridians disappeared in an instant.

"Uh-huh."

Unable to continue flying, Zhang Ruochen carried Shi Meiren on his back and slowly descended from mid-air, landing on the edge of a wide ancient river.

The ancient river was covered in mist and waves, and the water flow was gentle. At a glance, you couldn't even see the other side, as if you were standing on the beach.

Zhang Ruochen's legs were shaking slightly and it was difficult to support him.

The feeling of weakness, coupled with the injuries on his body, made him almost fall to the ground.

At this moment, let alone a giant in the Holy Realm, even a warrior in the Tianji Realm could defeat him.

Fortunately, the evil saints from the black market did not come after him, otherwise, it would be difficult for Zhang Ruochen to escape today.

"There are no Saint Realm experts to catch up with you, so put me down! Your condition is very bad. If you don't treat your injuries in time, you may be left with a hidden illness that will be difficult to recover for life." Shi Meiren looked very focused and said in a gentle voice. , with some concerns.

Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised, put Shi Meiren down, and stared into her eyes at close range.

Her eyes were no longer so dim and empty, but more humane, like a living, beautiful woman rather than a human-shaped stone sculpture.

To be precise, as early as when they escaped from the black market, Shi Meiren had undergone some subtle changes and was no longer so sluggish.

However, Zhang Ruochen was busy dealing with the demon sect elders surnamed Qi and the evil saints in the black market, so he had no chance to ask.

"Have you found your will again?" Zhang Ruochen looked happy.

Shi Meiren's eyes were like two bays of water, staring straight at Zhang Ruochen. She shook her head and fell into silence. She was thinking about something and seemed to be comprehending something. Her eyes gradually became dull.

Zhang Ruochen was worried that she would turn into a cold and silent stone beauty again, so he immediately said: "I always feel that I am not completely out of the crisis yet. I must continue on my way and escape as far away as possible."

Shi Meiren stared at Zhang Ruochen, worried, and said: "Your injury is very serious, it is best to stop and recuperate."

Zhang Ruochen's injuries were indeed serious. There was no trace of blood on his face, and he looked like an ordinary person who was terminally ill.

Moreover, because of the use of the power of the third seal of the relic, his body became extremely weak, unable to hold up, and fell down.

However, Shi Meiren supported him so that he did not fall to the ground.

Zhang Ruochen immediately drank a deadwood pill. Before he could refine it, he suddenly raised his head, looked at the sky in the distance, and said with a serious look on his face, "That's...the army of the undead vampires..."

On the horizon, a bright red color appeared, and a blood cloud was rolling in, with a frightening aura of terror.

There must be more than one undead vampire, it must be a large army, and it is very likely that they are here for the Taotian Sword.

Zhang Ruochen was originally planning to call out Xiao Hei and Tun Xiangtu in the picture scroll world and take them away, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

Among the army of undead vampires, there is more than one holy realm blood king.

The speed of Xiao Hei and Tun Xiangtu is considered top-notch among the semi-saints, but compared with the Saint Blood King, they are far behind.

Even if he hides in the world of the picture scroll, the Holy Blood King can still find the Divine Wood Map of the Universe based on Zhang Ruochen's remaining aura.

Once the Divine Wood Map of the Universe falls into the hands of the undead vampires, it will cause even greater disasters.

Zhang Ruochen believed that he had never experienced a desperate situation, and no matter how great the danger was, he would always find a way to resolve it. But now, it is in dire straits.

Zhang Ruochen looked very calm, showed a smile, glanced at Shi Meiren, and said: "Today, no matter what, we will die, why not do something big before we die?"

"What do you mean?" Shi Meiren looked curious.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Although you have lost all your cultivation, the Holy Source is still in your body. I can help you detonate the Holy Source and perish together with those undead vampires. The power of a sword master's Holy Source detonating is really It gives people something to look forward to.”

There was a gentle look in Shi Meiren's eyes, and she nodded slightly and agreed.

However, at this moment, a clear and elegant female voice came from the river not far away: "Junior brother Zhang, can you come on the boat and talk to me?"

Zhang Ruochen looked towards the ancient river and saw a blue wooden boat more than ten feet long docked on the shore.

On the bow of the boat, stood a delicate and elegant woman in white, who looked like a fairy from Lingbo, giving people a very otherworldly feeling.

Zhang Ruochen was a little confused and a little surprised, and said: "Senior Sister Luo, how did you come to the Central Territory?"

The woman on the boat, named Luo Shuihan, is known as the "Three Demons of the West Courtyard" together with Huang Yanchen and Mu Lingxi in the West Courtyard of Wushi Academy in Tianmo Ridge.

However, Zhang Ruochen later left the Eastern Territory Holy Academy and embarked on a different path to the Holy Path. He and Luo Shuihan had not seen each other for a long time.

I thought that they would never have any intersection in their lives, but I didn't expect that they would meet again under such circumstances.

To Zhang Ruochen's expectation, Luo Shuihan's cultivation had already reached the semi-saint realm and he did not fall behind.

When he was in the Western Academy, Luo Shuihan was the best student, and his qualifications were still higher than Huang Yanchen and Mu Lingxi.

Moreover, like Zhang Ruochen, her physique has been getting stronger and better, and she seems to have unlimited potential.

In recent years, the adventures she has received may not be inferior to those of Mu Lingxi and Huang Yanchen. Entering the semi-saint realm at such a young age is the best proof.

Luo Shuihan still had a picturesque temperament and said: "I came here for you two. To be precise, it is actually another person on the boat who wants to see you."

"us?"

Zhang Ruochen was really curious. Who was he who actually interacted with him and Ling Feiyu?

Zhang Ruochen wanted to tell Luo Shuihan that an army of undead vampires was coming in this direction and he should run away immediately.

However, in his current state, he can see the undead vampire army coming, will Luo Shuihan not see it?

Why is she still calm and composed?

Could it be...

Zhang Ruochen took a look inside the blue wooden boat and made a bold guess in his heart.

Could it be that person in the boat?

Zhang Ruochen and Shi Meiren boarded the green wooden boat and, led by Luo Shuihan, entered the cabin.

In the cabin, there was a thirty-year-old scholar in Tsing Yi and an old man with half white hair and half black hair.

On the table in front of the two of them, there was a scroll, which was outlined in ink and wash. It was impossible to tell what the painting was.

The appearance of the scholar in green clothes can only be regarded as average, but his whole person gives people a clean and tidy appearance, even every hair is neat and tidy.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen and Shi Meiren walking into the cabin, the two stopped talking about the paintings on the table and raised their heads at the same time.

The difference was that the scholar in green's first glance was focused on Zhang Ruochen.

The old man with half white hair and half black hair stared at Shi Meiren for the first time, showing a very curious look.

The scholar in green smiled and said: "I have long heard Shui Han mention that there is a great genius from Yunwu County in Tianmo Ridge. I want to meet you in the Eastern Territory Holy Academy, but I am worried that the master of Xuanji Academy will misunderstand that I want to snatch him away." Disciple, so I waited a while. But I didn’t expect that so many things happened later, and I didn’t really see you until today.”

Zhang Ruochen had some guesses about the identity of the scholar in green clothes. He clasped his hands in his fists, bowed slightly and said, "Greetings to the senior."

The old man also fixed his eyes on Zhang Ruochen at this moment and said: "No wonder the Queen has ordered to arrest you. You kid is indeed so bold that you dare to kill two saints from the Demon Sect. You continue to make trouble. , the Kunlun world, which is already about to be turned upside down, may add some unpredictable variables."

It was only at this moment that Zhang Ruochen began to take a serious look at this old man with half white hair and half black hair.

The old man looked energetic and had bright eyes. He was probably in his fifties and not that senile.

The most important point is that he is actually wearing clothes that represent Confucianism and Taoism.

You must know that Confucianism and Taoism have a very close relationship with the imperial court. Many outstanding students of Confucianism and Taoism are civil servants of the imperial court. Those great scholars and sages held high positions, and could even enter the six ministries and cabinets to formulate the national policies of the First Central Empire.

If this person is really a senior official of the imperial court, Zhang Ruochen must be wary of him.

The old man in Confucian clothes was a little displeased when he saw Zhang Ruochen's alert eyes. He blew his beard and glared, and shouted: "Why are you guarding me? I am not a member of the court, I am just a painter."

The scholar in Tsing Yi stared at Zhang Ruochen and said calmly: "He is indeed not an official of the imperial court and will not take action against you. Sit down first and ignore him."

Before Zhang Ruochen could sit down, the old man in Confucian clothes raised his chin and said proudly: "Although I am not an official of the imperial court, one of my disciples is the state shepherd of Tiantai Prefecture. One of my disciples, It’s the second place in this year’s new subject.”

Zhang Ruochen frowned, a little curious, how old is this old guy, and why is he still quarreling in front of a young man? Does it make sense?

Zhang Ruochen didn't bother to pay attention to him and sat down directly.

When the old man in scholarly clothes saw Zhang Ruochen sitting opposite him, he started blowing his beard and staring. He seemed to feel that Zhang Ruochen's status was too low and he was not worthy of being on an equal footing with him.

It is insulting to politeness, confusing seniority, and disrespectful...

If it weren't for the scholar in green clothes sitting beside him, maybe the old man in Confucian clothes would have lifted the table and left.

At this moment, the scholar in green was staring at Shi Meiren, showing a complicated expression, and said: "Palace Master Ling, actually, I am here specifically for you this time."

Shi Meiren smiled bitterly and said, "Like her, are you here to avenge the past?"

Not far away, Zhang Ruochen showed a curious expression. He wanted to know what kind of grievances these two figures in front of him, who represented two eras of the Kunlun world, had back then.

The old man in Confucian clothes also pricked up his ears and listened carefully, looking very interested.

The scholar in Tsing Yi shook his head and said: "I know that she has always hated you and vented all her resentment on you. Your state of mind was severely traumatized by the battle with the Qingtian Blood Emperor. And she found you , I’m afraid I’m also using what happened back then to attack your state of mind and want to completely destroy your will, so as to take revenge on you and make you pay for what you did back then.”

He added: "I came to the Central Region to stop her, and also to tell you. I never blamed you for what happened back then. You didn't do anything wrong, so don't blame yourself too much."

After hearing this sentence, Shi Meiren's eyes obviously changed. (To be continued.)
