God Emperor - Chapter 971

Chapter 971

Han Qiu took Zhang Ruochen forward . They kept walking and didn’t stop until they reached an extremely frigid area . There was darkness for countless miles . It reached from the ground to the sky .

A nine-foot-long ice coffin hung in the air around 100 feet from the ground . The dark and icy power was spreading from that coffin .

The top of the coffin had the mark of a crescent moon . The bottom had a sun . It absorbed the wood-element Spiritual Qi from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, forming two creek-like bridges of Spiritual Qi .

Zhang Ruochen had taken this Sun-moon Crystal Coffin from the netherworld and placed it in the scroll world . He didn’t really care about it and never imagined that it could produce such a shocking phenomenon .

“Around a year ago, I was cultivating and comprehending the Rules of Saintly Way,” Han Qiu said . “A strange thought emerged in my mind . As if guided by a spirit, I came to this coffin . Strangely enough, when I comprehend the rules under the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin, my speed is more than 100 times faster than usual . It feels like a Supreme Saint is in my head, teaching me . I comprehended the rules of darkness here . ”

Zhang Ruochen stared at the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin, falling into deep thought . He couldn’t figure out what Han Qiu had experienced at all .

A female corpse lay inside the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin . He could see it through the coffin’s walls . The corpse hadn’t decayed . It was still fully preserved and didn’t look like it had been around since the middle ages .

Full of doubt, Zhang Ruochen muttered to himself, “Could it be her?”

Han Qiu’s eyes were serious . “I always feel like that female corpse hasn’t truly died and will come back to life someday . ”

It wasn’t just Han Qiu . Zhang Ruochen also had the same feeling . In fact, he felt that that day would come soon .

“Would it be good or bad?” he asked .

Blackie always bragged that anything was possible in the scroll world . However, it had been proved that most of its words were exaggerations and unrealistic .

If the female corpse really came back to life, Blackie probably couldn’t control her . The entire scroll world might get torn apart by her .

Zhang Ruochen wanted to move the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin out as soon as possible to avoid trouble . However, he discovered that he couldn’t approach it .

When he was still 100 feet from the coffin, his entire body would get frozen by the icy Qi . If he continued, he would get sealed in ice .

“Such powerful icy Qi . My cultivation can’t even counter it . ”

Zhang Ruochen shattered the ice on him and retreated .

Whoosh—

He took out a piece of jade . Activating his Holy Qi, his finger applied force . The jade streaked toward the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin like white light .

When it was still 100 feet from the coffin, ice emerged out of the sky and sealed the jade . It couldn’t continue forward .

Strangely, the jade and ice just hovered in the air instead of falling down .

“With the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin as the center, this place has become a zone of death . We can’t approach it . ” Zhang Ruochen shook his head .

“Actually, the corpse inside might not be an evil object,” Han Qiu said . “I feel like she’s the one helping me comprehend the rules of darkness . ”

“In that case, continue cultivating here . It’s not that big of a threat, at least for now . ”

With that, Zhang Ruochen took that bottle of Tao Pills out . He gave Han Qiu five pills .

“Are these Tao Pills?” Han Qiu was shocked .

“Indeed . ”

“I heard that if a first level Half-Saint uses one, he can go immediately from the beginning to the pinnacle . ”

Zhang Ruochen had given her five of these valuable pills at once .

“A first level Half-Saint can indeed improve quickly with a Tao Pill, but the effect would be lower if a second level Half-Saint uses it . It’ll be even less effective for a third level Half-Saint . He won’t improve much even if he takes ten pills . ”

“Five Tao Pills is enough to take me to the pinnacle of the second level . ” Han Qiu’s lips curled into a smile .

When Zhang Ruochen first took her away from the Yin and Yang Sect, he’d personally promised to provide an endless stream of resources . Thus, Han Qiu accepted the five Tao Pills without shyness .

“Unfortunately, the Divine Origin Pill can only be created by middle age forces,” Zhang Ruochen said . “Without it, you’ll reach a bottleneck at the pinnacle of the first level . It won’t be that easy to reach the second level . ”

Now, Han Qiu was able to counter those Heirs in the same plane as her . Her future was unimaginable . If she continued cultivating and completed the Form of Darkness, she might be able to not only swallow light . She might be able to swallow space and everything in the world .

A talent like her would definitely be a top-level figure of the Sacred Sect . Naturally, Zhang Ruochen had to help her greatly .

Afterward, Zhang Ruochen gave the remaining 25 Tao Pills to Han Qiu to divide amongst the other disciples .

Any who’d reached the Fish-Dragon Realm could receive one Tao Pill .

“Refining divine blood has a better effect than taking Tao Pills . Not only can it improve one’s cultivation, it can also strengthen the physical body . ”

Thinking of this, Zhang Ruochen took out divine blood to refine .

Ji Shui thought that Zhang Ruochen could only reach the middle stage of the third level before the Deity battle . However, Zhang Ruochen’s goal was the pinnacle .

Three days later, Zhang Ruochen walked out of the scroll world . Right now, his cultivation had reached the middle stage of the third level .

He opened the formation of the residence and walked out . He saw Ji Shui who was sitting in a cloud of bloody mist .

Walking over, Zhang Ruochen chuckled . “Have you been guarding out here for the past three days? If people saw, they’d think that I don’t respect my elders . Would you like to cultivate with me inside?”

Ji Shui huffed . She stopped cultivating and stood up . “Have you tamed the spirit of the Seven Kill Boxing Glove?”

“To me, refining the Seven Kill Boxing Glove’s spirit is nothing . ” Zhang Ruochen raised his arm and waved the boxing glove before Ji Shui . “Would you like to test its power?”

Looking at how proud Gu Linfeng was, Ji Shui was unhappy . “You dare fight me with your cultivation… Huh? How did you improve so much? You’re already in the middle stage?”

“Yes . ”

This time, Ji Shui was truly shocked .

Gu Linfeng had only reached the third level around ten days ago . How could he reach the middle stage so quickly? His cultivation speed was unnatural .

Gu Linfeng’s talent is indeed shocking . Unfortunately, his mindset isn’t good enough . Otherwise, he could really rise to the top .

Ji Shui was only a bit shocked . She recovered quickly .

“Your attainment in the palm techniques is already very high, so I won’t teach you,” Ji Shui said . “However, you need improvement in other aspects, such as the technique that you cultivate . ”

“My Saintly Meridians and meridians are already set . I can’t cultivate other techniques . Even if I study a King Level saint guide, I still won’t get much . ”

Here, Bai Yu walked out of the Ding Dong Cultivation Residence . Hearing Zhang Ruochen’s words, he laughed . “Yes, the technique that you cultivate is the Blood Dragon Scripture, a supreme class Ghost Level technique . You can’t improve much even if you study a saint guide . ”

Zhang Ruochen glanced at Bai Yu . “Is it your place to speak while I’m talking to my master?”

Bai Yu clenched his fist and activated his Holy Qi . However, he quickly repressed his anger . “If I wasn’t going to the Saintess’ Lin Lang Cultivation Residence for the banquet, I’d definitely teach you a lesson . ”

With that, Bai Yu hurried toward the Saintess’ residence in his pure white robe . Zhang Ruochen shook his head, not caring about Bai Yu at all .

“Earlier, the Saintess also sent you an invitation . Are you going?” Ji Shui took out the invitation to give to Zhang Ruochen .

He didn’t accept it . “Why would I go to a banquet? I need to hurry up and cultivate so I can improve some more . ”

Hearing this, Ji Shui was quite surprised . This was personally hosted by the Saintess and he wasn’t going? She even suspected if Gu Linfeng was lying .

Zhang Ruochen smiled at Ji Shui . “It would be better if I could cultivate with you . ”

“Oh?” Ji Shui’s tone turned cold . “Since you want to cultivate, I’ll take you somewhere . If you’re very talented, you may make up for your disadvantage in technique . ”

“There’s a place like that?” Zhang Ruochen was actually curious .

“The founder of the Blood God Sect once left behind the Blood God Map . It’s carved at the peak of Qianyuan Mountain . If you can comprehend something from it, you may receive more than cultivating a typical King Level saint guide . ”

Of course, Ji Shui didn’t tell Zhang Ruochen everything . In the past thousand years, only one person had been able to comprehend a shred of truth from the Blood God Map and change his life .

Everyone else’s attempts had been fruitless .

Ji Shui was taking Zhang Ruochen to the Blood God Map to give him some hardship so he wouldn’t keep being so arrogant .
