The surface of the asteroid was covered with a layer of formation light shield.
After the Devil Ran Princess flew in, the formation light shield immediately opened, and the two Eight Dragons Martial Saints riding the thirty-odd feet long Iron Scaled Beasts, took off and received the Devil Ran Princess inside an ink-black stone city.
Inside the asteroid, there was a large spirit crystal mine, and the formation masters of the Green Dragon Market Realm had utilised the spirit crystal mine, spending hundreds of years to convert the asteroid into a place where cultivators above the Fish Dragon Realm could temporarily reside.
“Greetings to the Queen Consort of Devil Ran.”
In the stone city, all the cultivators all bowed respectfully to the Demon Ran King Consort, including some Saints whose cultivations were higher than the Demon Ran King Consort’s were no exception.
The Green Dragon Emperor, the seventy-sixth monarch of the Green Dragon Dynasty, and one of the most powerful beings in the Green Dragon Market Realm, looked to be in his fifties or sixties, and although his cultivation was powerful, he appeared to be rather haggard.
Seeing the return of Devil Ran Wangfei, Qinglong Emperor immediately put down his wine cup, rushed down the steps and greeted him, grabbing Devil Ran Wangfei’s hands and asking with concern, “Ai Fei, have you captured the Spirit of the World yet?”
Devil Ran Wangfei glanced coldly at Emperor Qinglong, drew back her slender jade hand, and slapped her across the face, snapping at Emperor Qinglong’s face and knocking him to the ground.
The mighty Qinglong Emperor was actually slapped by the Demon Ran Princess.
Luckily, the cultivators of the Green Dragon Dynasty didn’t see this scene, otherwise, their jaws would have been dropped in shock.
“Rubbish, the Green Dragon Dynasty has been destroyed, and you still have the heart to drink?”
The Green Dragon Emperor regained his footing from the ground and did not get angry, instead, he took the initiative to curry favour with the Devil Ran Princess and laughed, “Ai Fei, Ai Fei, Ai Fei, this emperor is just a Holy Soul detachment that is staying here, sitting in the stronghold, his real body has already travelled to the starry skies near the Green Dragon Ruins Realm, and he is fighting with the strongest in the Kunlun Realm, and he hasn’t lost the will to fight.”
Devil Ran’s Princess gazed at the Green Dragon Emperor, and sure enough, she realised that the Green Dragon Emperor in front of her was only a Holy Soul detachment, not his true body.
“How many powerful people did the Kunlun Realm send out?”Demon Ran Princess asked.
Emperor Qinglong said, “It is said that there is a great turmoil in the Kunlun Realm, and the major powers are unable to take care of themselves, even the Ministry of Military Affairs has withdrawn a large number of Market Realm warriors to the Kunlun Realm. As a result, only some of the strongest in the Saint Realm rushed to compete for the World Spirit, but none of those legendary Saint Realm Kings appeared.”
“A great disturbance has occurred in the Kunlun Realm?”
Devil Ran Wangfei’s eyes lit up, revealing a smile.
Seeing that the Devil Ran King Consort revealed a smile, the Green Dragon Emperor was ecstatic and hurriedly added, “We captured a strong human cultivator, and from his mouth, we tortured out some information about the Kunlun Realm.”
“I heard that the Great Mighty Great Virtue Female Saint Emperor has disappeared and has most likely fallen, the Kunlun Realm is leaderless, and all forces are ambitious and want to take this opportunity to subvert the First Central Empire. Whether it’s the human frontier or the Barbarian Secret Realm, there has been a great upheaval, killing rivers of blood and piling up corpses like mountains.”
Devil Ran Princess’s finger gently stroked her chin and laughed, “Great turmoil has also occurred in the Barbarian Secret Realm?”
“Not long ago, there was a world-unrivalled ancient relic species in the Kunlun Realm that had cultivated to the Beast Emperor realm, wanting to integrate the various races of savage beasts and unify the Savage Wilderness Mystic Realm, setting off the most tragic great war after the Middle Ages.”Emperor Qinglong said.
Devil Ran Princess pursed her small lips slightly and asked, “What kind of powerful characters are rushing over from the Kunlun Realm to compete for the Spirit of the World?”
“There are at least half a dozen characters whose strength is comparable to mine. For example, the Qing Xiao Heavenly King of the Ministry of War, the Immortal Blood Clan’s Empty Blood Saint and Yuan Yi Blood Saint.”
“However, the topmost experts are all holding each other back, making it difficult for them to directly participate in the scramble. Before the Spirit of the World was even born, they had already broken out into four or five great battles.”Emperor Qinglong said.
The Devil Ran Princess nodded and said, “Give me the Emperor Talisman of the Green Dragon Dynasty, I want to mobilise all the Martial Saints here to recover the Spirit of the World.”
The Imperial Symbol symbolised the Green Dragon Emperor and could mobilise all the forces of the Green Dragon Dynasty.
However, without any hesitation, the Qinglong Emperor took out the Imperial Talisman, and while smiling, placed it into the hands of the Demon Ran Princess, saying, “Consort, when you return in triumph, this emperor ……”
Emperor Qinglong’s words, hadn’t even finished, when the Devil Ran King Consort grabbed the Imperial Talisman and had already left.
“Every time, it’s like this, getting more and more contemptuous of this monarch, in the end, who is the emperor of the Green Dragon Dynasty?”
“Boom!”
It wasn’t until Devil Ran Wangfei brought a group of Martial Saints and flew out of the asteroid that Emperor Qinglong erupted into a monstrous rage, smashing the stone palace to smithereens.
While Devil Ran Wangfei was in front of him, Emperor Qinglong absolutely did not dare to show a trace of annoyance, and would only endeavour to curry favour with her, and to be able to touch her hand was something that made him feel incomparably happy.
Even the Green Dragon Emperor himself didn’t know, when had he become such a wimp? So afraid of her?
……
The surface of the comet was full of dark green coloured ice, drifting snowflakes, cold and chilly to the extreme.
With Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yichen’s cultivation, they also felt the icy cold piercing their bones.
Zhang Ruochen was like a standing monument, standing above the frigid ice, embracing Huang Yichen’s delicate body in his arms, the masculine Qi in his body turning into a flame, dispelling the cold Qi that was pouring in from all directions.
“We finally escaped, what are your plans next?”Huang Yichen raised his head and stared at Zhang Ruochen’s handsome side face.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze was somewhat sharp, without a trace of emotion, saying, “Who exactly are you?”
Huang Yichen was slightly stunned and said, “Brother Dust, why would you ask that? What’s wrong with you?”
Zhang Ruochen stared at Huang Yichen’s eyes from a close distance, feeling rather puzzled, and after a long period of silence, he spoke what was in his heart, “There are too many shadows of her in your body, and I can no longer see who you really are.”
Earlier, Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yichen had executed the Yin Yang Two Instruments Sword Formation together, and it simply fitted to the extreme, as if they had rehearsed it many times.
In that instant, Zhang Ruochen almost thought that the woman standing across from him was Chi Yao from 800 years ago.
The two of them had practised their swords together, travelled the mountains together, and looked at the stars in the sky together.
Zhang Ruochen did not believe that the first time he rehearsed the Yin Yang Two Instruments Sword Formation with Huang Yichen, he would be able to perform the sword formation to that level.
Huang Yichen bit her lips tightly, her eyes blinking, revealing a miserable look as she gradually lowered her head.
“What’s wrong with you?”Zhang Ruochen asked.
Huang Yichen gently shook her head and sighed, “You can’t forget her after all, the person you love the most in your heart has always been her. I …… am just her shadow, right?”
“No.”
“It’s useless if you don’t admit it, you hate her so much, isn’t it because you love her to the extreme? You can’t fool me, because, when we caved in, you were shouting her name.”Huang Yichen had tears in her eyes and was heartbroken.
Zhang Ruochen, who already had a guilty conscience in his heart, did not continue to argue with her, his eyes were a little confused as he said, “Consider what I just said as unspoken!”
Huang Yichen did not force Zhang Ruochen either, therefore, continuing to pursue the matter would most likely be counterproductive.
Huang Yichen could feel that Zhang Ruochen was already somewhat distant from her.
The comet flew at an extreme speed, getting further and further away from the Green Dragon Market Realm, and soon came to another starry sky.
Continuing to stay on top of the comet, it was likely that she would be lost in the vastness of the universe, unable to return to the Kunlun Realm.
Zhang Ruochen used a Spatial Grand Transfer and left the comet, arriving at the surface of a larger withered planet.
Zhang Ruochen unleashed his Heavenly Eyes and peered upwards, observing the orbits of the stars, and soon discovered some of the more familiar starfields, judging the general location of the Kunlun Realm.
“We are too far away from the Kunlun Realm, with our current speed, we won’t be able to return even if we fly for a thousand years, we must make use of wormholes and make a space jump.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Huang Yichen said, “There is a wormhole in the vicinity of the Green Dragon Market Realm, we know its general location, it’s not very far away from us.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “There must be many Saint realm beings guarding there, we are undoubtedly shooting ourselves in the foot by rushing over there.”?Zhang Ruochen thought about using a spatial teleportation array to return to the Kunlun Realm, only that with his current spatial attainments, he could only set up basic teleportation arrays, which could only teleport up to 300,000 miles at most in one go.
In this vast starry sky, 300,000 li was too short. The distance between two random stars was also millions of miles, even hundreds of millions of miles.
Zhang Ruochen’s heart stirred as he thought of the spatial teleportation array dug out at the bottom of the Dragon’s Peak Mountain, and was quite curious about the spatial coordinates marked on the teleportation array.
Now, having seized the World Spirit, it was just the right time to activate the spatial teleportation array and rush over to find out.
It was impossible for Saint Monk Sumeru to leave a spatial teleportation array in the Green Dragon Market Realm for no reason, and this teleportation array, surely, had an extraordinary function.
Zhang Ruochen took out the Qiankun Divine Wood Diagram and attempted to communicate with the Heaven Receiving Divine Wood and Xiao Hei, however, the Scroll World was still in a closed state and did not receive any response.
The formation, which was placed in the Figure Scroll World, naturally could not be taken out since the Figure Scroll World was closed.
“Brother Dust, you don’t have to be in such a hurry, as long as I can be with you, even if I spend my entire life on top of this planet where not an inch of grass grows, I still feel incredibly happy.”Huang Yichen calmed Zhang Ruochen’s emotions.
Zhang Ruochen felt a deeper sense of guilt in his heart as he tightly grasped Huang Yichen’s small hand with a firm gaze and said, “Don’t worry, I will definitely bring you back to the Kunlun Realm.”
For the next period of time, Zhang Ruochen waited for Little Black and the Heaven Receiving Divine Soil to suppress the World Spirit of the Green Dragon Market Realm while refining the residual dan qi of the Sacred Pill and striving to raise his cultivation realm.
In this seemingly quiet and peaceful starry sky, danger could come at any time, and Zhang Ruochen didn’t dare to slack off at all, he had to go all out to make himself stronger.
Three days later.
Dozens of asteroids flew in around the planet where Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yichen were.
On top of each asteroid stood a Martial Saint from the Green Dragon Market Realm, and under the leadership of the Demon Ran Princess, they surrounded the entire planet.
“It’s catching up after all!”
Zhang Ruochen sensed something and immediately opened his eyes, standing up and looking towards the starry sky above his head.
