God Emperor

Latest website: Zhang Ruochen symbolically visited the old site of the Dark Temple in the Sword Realm, then left and headed to Qiankun Continent.

With the opponent's careful layout, how could it be possible to leave a flaw in the Dark Temple?

But if he didn't go, wouldn't it be inconsistent with the paranoia he was showing?

Facing Ming Ancestor, Zhang Ruochen knew that he had no chance of winning. The only thing he could do now was to show his enemy weakness as much as possible and expose more weaknesses.

When Mingzu cares about him, he can't do anything!

In the next round, if Zhang Ruochen wants to make a difference, he must first get Mingzu's attention away from him.

…

The Qiankun Continent is the world of Qiankun that was transformed into the "Qiankun Divine Wood Map" left by the holy monk Xumi. It was placed to the east of the Aoki Continent by Zhang Ruochen. The two are only separated by a strait dozens of miles wide.

This strait is now the busiest waterway in the entire sword world.

More than 100,000 years have passed, and port cities have been built on both sides of the once barren strait, with many monks and blooming flowers.

For monks under the divine realm, the two port cities are already considered ancient cities and have experienced too many years of baptism.

On the Qiankun Continent, there was the Shengming Central Empire established under the leadership of Kong Lanyou.

The original aborigines of the empire were the descendants of Shengming's old ministers, and most of them came from the Kunlun realm.

Under the Qiankun Continent, there is a main divine vein flowing through it, and the energy of heaven and earth is rich.

In addition, Zhang Ruochen placed treasures such as the Heavenly Connecting Tree, Sword Mountain, Haijin Shensang, and the Sixth Patriarch's Buddha World on the continent, which established the Qiankun Continent's special status in the sword world.

When thousands of big worlds were brought to the Wuding Divine Sea, elite monks from all walks of life poured into the Sword World, which invisibly promoted the further development of Qiankun Continent.

The gods of each big world have established sects in the Shengming Central Empire.

The gods who first surrendered to Zhang Ruochen in the heaven and hell realms, such as "Huang Daozi" in the Fuling Realm, the "Second Elder" in the Formation Palace, the Great God of Taixu in the Dark Temple, "Chixuan Ghost Lord", "Wu Gan", Zhi Xuan The great god "Xuemu" of the clan, the great god "Huang" of the bone clan, the "Yuantian Lord" and "Red Soul Lord" of the dead clan... and other monks have all established temples in Qiankun Continent.

However, in today's sword world, most of the gods have gone to the Yuhuang world, and not many are left behind.

The Buddhist world of the Sixth Patriarch is a Buddhist land shrouded in golden light all year round. It is located in the west of the Qiankun Continent, where many temples and Zen temples have been built.

In the far west of the Buddha's land, in a mountain range thousands of miles long facing the sea, it is full of life and death. Dead spirits can be seen everywhere, and it is incompatible with the outside world.

Zhang Ruochen came to the foot of this mountain range and walked along the winding stone road step by step towards the Death Zen Temple on the top of the mountain. He walked in no hurry and was thinking about something.

There were many Buddhist cultivators passing by, but they were not evil, and they all looked kind and kind.

Among them, there are even female Buddhist practitioners with hair who are outstanding in appearance and have a quiet and dignified temperament.

After walking for half a day, Zhang Ruochen arrived at the gate of the temple near the top of the mountain. Amidst the smoke of incense and the crowds of people, he saw at a glance the Buddhist master who had been waiting beside the stone carving in front of the door.

Master Xinshu once entered the sundial practice. He is hundreds of thousands of years old. He is no longer as young and handsome as he once was. He looks like he is forty or fifty years old, with a beard on his chin and fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes. The pupils are filled with vicissitudes of life and restraint.

"Di Chen is here, and it is a great honor for the Death Zen Sect. Master Can Deng has been waiting for a long time. Please come with the poor monk."

Under the leadership of Master Xinshu, Zhang Ruochen entered the Temple of Death.

They used to be hostile, but now they are peaceful and calm.

There are many monks and believers in the temple.

Among them, the three undead tribes accounted for the majority.

There are translucent ghosts kneeling under the Buddha statue of the dead Zen ancestor and chanting sutras; there are tens of thousands of white bones sitting cross-legged in the square listening to the old monk's sermon; there are rotten corpses lined up in long rows, hands clasped, whispering, Walking through the prayer tube.

Passing through an ancient pine and cypress forest, Zhang Ruochen saw Master Can Deng and the Death Zen Patriarch sitting opposite each other by a pond full of fallen leaves.

Although they are equals, anyone can see the humbly seeking advice on the face of the Death Zen Patriarch.

The ancestor of Death Zen stood up, bowed to Master Can Deng, and said, "Di Chen has arrived, and the poor monk will leave first."

"Go!"

Master Candeng nodded slightly.

When passing by Zhang Ruochen, the Death Chan Patriarch bowed deeply and quickly disappeared at the end of the ancient forest.

"Death Zen can create his own Buddhist path, and his qualifications are very good. Unfortunately, he took a wrong path. But I think the master has led him to a very different righteous path!" Zhang Ruochen said.

Master Candeng smiled and said: "There is no good or evil in this world. With more people and more benefits, there will be good and evil. There is no good and evil in this world. With more things and more right and wrong, there will be good and evil."

"Master can see clearly, and his realm is much higher than mine!" Zhang Ruochen smiled freely.

Master Candeng waved his hand and said: "I have my own good and evil and good and evil in my heart, but it is not necessarily right. You should have your own ideas in your heart. Everyone views everything differently."

Zhang Ruochen didn't care about this and said directly: "Master, does he know my purpose?"

Master Candeng said: "I can only tell you that I didn't sense anything."

"That's enough!"

With these words from Master Can Deng, Zhang Ruochen can eliminate the Dark Lord and Empress Shiji, the two most powerful people in the world of darkness.

Because the Lord of Darkness and Empress Shiji want to take down the Nine-Death Emperor and take away the Dark Temple, and they will definitely not be able to hide it from Master Candeng's perception.

Now it is certain that the one who takes action must be the ancestor.

There is a high probability that it is the Ancestor of the Underworld!

Zhang Ruochen sat across from Master Can Deng and said, "Can I ask Master two questions?"

"Must answer?" Master Can Deng asked.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, "Just treat it as a chat between friends."

"That is, can everyone listen?" Master Can Deng smiled, his handsome face even more sunny and cheerful.

Everyone here obviously only refers to Ming Zu.

In the entire Wuding Divine Sea, only Mingzu could eavesdrop on their conversations without being noticed by them.

Zhang Ruochen was surprised and said: "Oh! Master, is there a way to prevent other monks from hearing our conversation?"

"You can give it a try, but there's no guarantee it will work." Master Can Deng said.

If your cultivation reaches Can Deng's height, if you dare to try it, you will definitely have a lot of confidence.

Zhang Ruochen made an invitation gesture and said with a smile: "I really want to broaden my horizons today!"

Master Can Deng did not act immediately and said: "If you can teach me the Wuji Divine Way, I may be more confident."

Zhang Ruochen's Wuji Divine Way can form a small world of its own, isolated from the outside world. However, facing the Ancestor of the Underworld who was in the Wuding Divine Sea, and maybe even in the Sword Realm, he had no confidence in concealing the truth.

Zhang Ruochen asked: "How much does Master know about Ming Ancestor?"

Master Can Deng heard that Zhang Ruochen didn't trust his strength, so he laughed without any image: "The Ming Ancestor is very strong, but he still needs to hide it, which means he is not strong enough to do anything. Although the poor monk feels ashamed Not as good, but if you want to seize a piece of your own territory between heaven and earth, you can still do it."

Zhang Ruochen said: "I can pass on the Wuji Divine Way to the master without reservation. Does the master know the reason?"

Master Can Deng said: "I guess you have something to ask of me."

"Hey, it can't be considered a request."

Zhang Ruochen waved his hand and said: "Because I know that Master is a person who doesn't like to owe favors. If he owes one thing, he will usually pay back two. Having taught the Wuji Divine Way, how should Master repay it?"

Master Can Deng looked at Zhang Ruochen with interest and said, "Otherwise, I will first ask you to teach me the Wuji Divine Way, and then you will ask me."

"Is there a difference?"

"There is a difference! If you calculate too clearly, you will never be friends for the rest of your life. If you trouble each other, your friendship will become stronger and stronger. Didn't you mention the word friend just now?"

Master Can Deng's words moved Zhang Ruochen's face, and he said in awe, "Compared with Master, I am still far behind. Is Ruochen qualified to be Master's friend?"

"If you invite me to drink, you are qualified." Master Can Deng said.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Then I'll order this wine! Let's go, I have a nice place, quiet and elegant, where you can drink."

"No hurry! Answer me a question first, why do you trust me so much? Are you not worried that I did all this?" Master Can Deng asked.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Wentianjun told me about you, and I believe he will not misjudge the person. Wentianjun was betrayed and paid a heavy price. It is difficult to trust someone again, but you can become his Dear friends. Is this reason enough?"

"When did he become a talkative person?" Master Can Deng said this to himself, then stood up slowly and said, "Let's go to your place."

Zhang Ruochen and Master Can Deng left the Sword Realm and came to the Kunlun Realm located in the northern part of the Wuding Divine Sea. Then, they crossed the Sea of ​​​​Xue, climbed the Book Mountain, and came to the Tianren Academy that had been moved here.

The breeze blows on my face and the bamboo branches sway.

Master Can Deng, with his plain white robe and fluttering cloud sleeves, said: "So you still don't believe in my strength!"

"So, the master also thinks that the Ming Ancestor is hiding in the Sword Realm?" Zhang Ruochen walked side by side with him.

In the same world, Mingzu's ability to see the truth is obviously stronger.

Leaving the Sword Realm and coming to the Kunlun Realm is weakening the Ming Ancestor's ability. Master Can Deng naturally thought that Zhang Ruochen had doubts about his strength.

Master Can Deng said: "If I say that I can feel His presence faintly, would you believe it?"

Zhang Ruochen shook his head.

Master Can Deng showed an enigmatic smile: "It is right not to believe. This is rational."

"But it also means that I don't know you well enough."

Zhang Ruochen really didn't know much about Master Can Deng, and had only met him a few times in total. Because of this, at the beginning, he had no intention of making friends with him.

The word "friend" is still very heavy.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Actually, the reason why I brought the master here to drink is because of my trust in the master's strength."

"I don't understand this!"

Master Can Deng looked at Tianren Academy in the distance, thoughtfully.

"You'll understand later!" Zhang Ruochen said.

Nalan Danqing stood quietly outside the bamboo house of the academy, looking at Zhang Ruochen and Master Can Deng who came together, and for a moment he felt a little lost.

Just because these two people are too abnormal.

Master Can Deng is always deep and quiet, but today his face is filled with a smile.

The Temple of Truth was destroyed, and the Temple of Darkness and Senior Jiutian were missing. Faced with such two major events, Zhang Ruochen should go all out to track down and rescue them based on his character. But Zhang Ruochen acted as if nothing had happened, looking at her with a smile on his face.

Nalan Danqing said: "If we can alert you two, is there something big going to happen in Tianren Academy?"

"It's a big deal."

Zhang Ruochen nodded and looked at Master Can Deng.

Master Can Deng understood this and opened his hands. Suddenly, black and white light spots spread out in the void like chess pieces on a chessboard.

Heaven and earth were separated, and the entire Tianren Academy seemed to be moved onto a huge chessboard.

While Zhang Ruochen observed these dark light spots, he also sensed the fluctuations in the mental power of Master Can Deng and said: "Master has such strong mental power, is this a celestial chess formation?"

The Celestial Chess Formation is the unique skill of the Second Confucian Patriarch, and Master Can Deng has studied it for many years.

"This is not spiritual power, it is not a chess formation between heaven and man, it is God's will!" Master Can Deng said.

Zhang Ruochen was slightly shocked and said: "Master actually cultivated into Heaven's Will? Legend has it that Heaven's Will is the ancestral Taoist method of the Second Confucian Patriarch, and it is a method that can only be mastered by the ancestor of spiritual power."

"The poor monk has never heard that one must have spiritual power in order to display God's will." Master Can Deng continued: "The poor monk realized God's will from the celestial chess formation and the "Book of Destiny". The third one you mentioned The two Confucian ancestors who were able to create the will of heaven probably also learned from the way of destiny."

Zhang Ruochen has been observing the chessboard and black and white light spots under him, and said: "I understand! It's the "River Picture". God's will not only has the "Book of Destiny", but also the shadow of the "River Picture"."

More confusion arose in Zhang Ruochen's heart.

The second Confucian ancestor Yan Tingqiu, in his time, the biggest opponent was Ling Xiezhan, the soul-eating lamp of the Temple of Destiny.

There is no doubt that various signs indicate that the Second Confucian Patriarch has a close connection with the Temple of Destiny, and many interesting things must have happened in the past.

Because "River Map" is placed in the Temple of Destiny.

What Zhang Ruochen is most concerned about is, of course, who created "River Picture"?

"He Tu" and "Luo Shu" had a huge influence on Zhang Ruochen's Wuji Shinto. "Luoshu" originated from Emperor Wa, the creator of "He Tu", so he should be as good as Emperor Wa.

The first thought in Zhang Ruochen's mind was the ancestor of time and space.

After all, the second Confucian ancestor was able to prove the ancestor of Taoism, and he was most influenced by the ancestors of time and space.

"What are you thinking about?" Master Candeng asked.

"Wow!"

Zhang Ruochen released the Tai Chi Four Symbols Seal, covering only an area of ​​18 feet in radius, and said: "I think the only person who can really fear the Ming Ancestor is the Time and Space Ancestor. However, the Time and Space Ancestor is even more hidden than the Ming Ancestor. Think of a way to make Ancestor Ming believe that Human Ancestor has revealed his traces and draw his attention there. Only in this way can I proceed with my next plan!"

Master Candeng didn't know what Zhang Ruochen's plan was, but he gave a kind reminder: "She is still here. If you let her know too much, she may be killed."

Zhang Ruochen looked at Nalan Danqing, who was standing beside him as quietly as an orchid, and felt unprecedented regret and pain in his heart. Because, many years ago, he had already involved Nalan Danqing.

Unfortunately, apart from Nalan Danqing, there were not many people he trusted who could help him.

Nalan Danqing's apricot eyes were full of smoke, and he looked straight at Zhang Ruochen and said, "If it weren't for Di Chen's rescue, Dan Qing would have been dead for many years. Di Chen, after my analysis and verification, the information you asked me to search for was really discovered. I got some clues. It’s related to Ren Ancestor, and it might be able to help you.”

Master Can Deng frowned deeply and said: "Now I understand what you just said! You actually gave her the most dangerous thing in the world to do. As someone who wants to be friends with you As a man, I hope you can be more manly and don’t let down the woman who loves you sincerely. I hope this wine today is a wedding wine!”
