God Emperor - Chapter 822

Chapter 822: 822

If she was allowed to absorb all the Death Qi, what kind of horrifying state would she reach?

However, to the sapling of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, this was a great thing . Without the Death Qi blocking it, it could grow faster .

Though he was happy, Zhang Ruochen didn’t show it on his face . He still looked calm . “I can agree to your second condition . So shouldn’t you kneel down to your master now?”

“Don’t forget my first condition . Before your cultivation surpasses me, we must be equals . Don’t you dare think about making me a slave . ”

Ghost King Bloodmoon snickered inwardly . If she could refine the Death Qi in the tree’s roots, her cultivation would shoot up . Zhang Ruochen’s speed couldn’t catch up with her .

Once her cultivation became strong enough, she could break free from this world . At that time, she could take her time with this human .

As expected, wild souls are hard to tame, Zhang Ruochen thought . I must use some methods to train her . Otherwise, she won’t be an obedient follower .

“It’s okay if you don’t want to kneel . A Ghost King should have their dignity, after all . I understand . ”

Zhang Ruochen rubbed his chin and took a glass from his spatial ring . Handing it over, he said, “Get me a glass of spring water . I have some more questions for you . ”

Seeing that Ghost King Bloodmoon continued standing there with no sign of moving, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes gradually turned serious . “If you aren’t even willing to do this, I have to doubt if you’re really submitting to me . ”

Ghost King Bloodmoon’s clenched her fingers into a fist and her arm trembled . She grabbed the glass, huffing coldly . Then her body transformed into black Ghost Qi and scattered . She flew to the cave in the distance .

“It seems nice to be able to order a beautiful Ghost King for everyday things . ” Zhang Ruochen stared at the flying Ghost Qi and nodded lightly .

He had once been the royal prince of the Sacred Central Empire and had learned how an emperor ruled, but sadly, he hadn’t looked too deeply into it . If he could successfully take in Ghost King Bloodmoon, his heart would definitely change a lot . He would gradually evolve a strong upper figure’s mindset .

After a while, Ghost King Bloodmoon carried a glass of spring water and reappeared above the tree root . With an icy expression, she offered the glass to Zhang Ruochen . “Your spring water . ”

Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged on the ground . Giving her a glance, he accepted the glass, but didn’t drink it . Holding it, he said, “Sit first . ”

Ghost King Bloodmoon accepted easily . She sat cross-legged on the ground . Her black hair fell down the sides of her face to her snowy-white thighs . Her large round eyes stared at Zhang Ruochen .

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen didn’t drink the water, she felt a bit disappointed . After all, she’d washed her feet in the water before filling the glass to show her unhappiness .

Zhang Ruochen placed the glass on the ground . He looked very calm . “The female corpse in the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin should be your physical body, right?”

“Perhaps!” Ghost King Bloodmoon said .

Naturally, Zhang Ruochen wasn’t satisfied with this answer . “What do you mean ‘perhaps?'”

“She died before I was born,” Ghost King Bloodmoon said . “How can I be sure that she’s my physical body? Plus, before I was born, I’d lived many muddled years like the other dead souls . I didn’t have a complete intelligence until I reached the Wuchang Realm . ”

Zhang Ruochen could see that she was speaking the truth . “So you can’t remember anything from when you were alive?” he asked .

“I indeed received some memory fragments when I reached the Ghost King Realm, but they weren’t complete at all . Most were cultivation and martial techniques . There was nothing else . If my cultivation increases, I might be able to remember more . ”

Since Ghost King Bloodmoon’s memories of her past life were very sparse, Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue asking .

He pulled out a ghost marble and squeezed it between two fingers . “If you’re willing to go to the Ghost God Valley with me, I will give you one ghost marble to help you recover your cultivation . ”

Ghost King Bloodmoon stared at the ghost marble . Her eyes squinted and she licked her lips . Grabbing the marble, she said, “Since I chose to submit to you, I won’t have any objections . ”

A while later, Ghost King Bloodmoon refined the ghost marble . She recovered her cultivation, reaching the Ghost King Realm .

An incredible surge of icy Qi immediately radiated from her . It formed thick ice and spread into the distance with cracking sounds . Two balls of blue fire were ignited in her eyes once again .

In the sky, charcoal clouds rolled, shrouding the world in darkness . In the distance, a shred of Ghost Qi was sucked into the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin . A crescent print immediately emerged between the eyebrows of the female corpse . Moonlight wrapped around her entire body . Specks of white light appeared .

However, Zhang Ruochen, Ghost King Bloodmoon, and the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit had already left the scroll world . They didn’t notice the female corpse’s changes .

Walking out of the scroll world, Ghost King Bloodmoon’s eyes grew sharp . Her hands clenched into claws . Right now, her power was enough to easily take care of Zhang Ruochen .

Zhang Ruochen obviously was testing her by giving her the ghost marble . In reality, he was also extremely nervous . He’d been holding the Buddhist relic, sarira . If Ghost King Bloodmoon attacked, he would immediately undo the third level seal of the sarira .

At this time, the light of the blood moon hanging above Blood River dimmed . Finally, it disappeared completely .

Seeing this, Ghost King Bloodmoon was shocked . She forgot about killing Zhang Ruochen for now . Looking at the black sky, she said, “That’s strange . The blood moon has been in the sky for so many years . How can it just disappear?”

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen sensed something . He immediately cast his spiritual power into the Universe Spiritual Map . He saw that there was a bright moon in the sky of the scroll world . It hung in the sky above the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin and Divine Sky-connecting Tree .

This was a pure white moon, not a blood moon .

“This is quite unusual . ”

Zhang Ruochen was even more certain that Ghost King Bloodmoon had been some important figure of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect before death .

The changes of the blood moon calmed Ghost King Bloodmoon down . Thinking of the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin and the Death Qi within the tree, she suppressed the urge to attack Zhang Ruochen .

Collecting her aura, she said, “Blood River is very far from Ghost God Valley . Let me lead the way!”

“Please!” Zhang Ruochen said, smiling .

Ghost King Bloodmoon turned into a puff of Ghost Qi and flew out .

The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit widened its black eyes and looked around . “Lord Chen, why did I feel that you were nervous? Is that female Ghost King that scary? But I think that she’s quite pretty . ”

This silly rabbit didn’t even know that it had been a step away from death earlier . But after she’d passed this challenge, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have to worry anymore that Ghost King Bloodmoon would suddenly try to kill him . He put the sarira away and jumped onto the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit’s back .

“Follow her . ”

The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit was 13 meters tall and covered in long red hair . It radiated strong Demonic Qi . It looked fat, but when it ran, it was shockingly fast . It surpassed a fifth level Half-Saint’s full speed .

This was the talent of the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit race . Even if they only had a first level Half-Saint’s cultivation, their speed could never be reached by people in the same level .

With Ghost King Bloodmoon leading the way, they didn’t run into any danger . Three days later, they reached the outside of the Ghost God Valley .

Zhang Ruochen didn’t rush into the valley immediately . Instead, he stayed outside and investigated for a full day . He soon discovered many Monks from Kunlun’s Field . Amongst them, most were Half-Saints from various top forces . They’d clearly all come for the legendary Pill of Resurrection .

Of course, there were probably also some ancient Saints here, but Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation was too low to sense their auras .

Whoosh!

A majestic figure clad in gold armor walked out of the darkness . He carried a halberd and his face was covered in facial hair . His eyes were sharp . Radiating wild power, he strode towards Ghost God Valley .

It was the new star of the Ministry of War, Bu Qianfan .

Other than him, there were also a dozen Half-Saint generals . They all wore armor and rode powerful battle beasts . They entered Ghost God Valley powerfully .

Even the Ministry of War is here . Interesting . Zhang Ruochen smiled .

Bu Qianfan had a fearless personality . He even dared to charge into Void World and receive the Immortal Saint Body . This naturally made him even more fearless . He could even stir up a storm amongst the dead souls of the netherworld .

The other genius of the Ministry of War was Chi Wansui . He was one of the nine Heirs . If Bu Qianfan wanted to catch up to Chi Wansui, he had to take this risk . He could only find bigger opportunities in the world of death .

Suddenly, a few more figures appeared before Zhang Ruochen’s eyes .

Seeing them, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed . A burst of hatred surged in his heart . Gritting his teeth, he said, “Feng Han . ”

Clad in white clothing, Feng Han looked handsome as he walked in the front, appearing at the edge of Ghost God Valley .

There were a dozen elders behind him . Extremely powerful aura radiated from each of them . It was clear that they were all important figures from the Immortal Vampires .

An elder with youthful features walked over and bowed to Feng Han . “Sixth Prince, Ghost God Valley will definitely be dangerous . You can wait outside as I lead the Half-Saints to take the Pill of Resurrection out . ”
