The four-winged Silver Light Crane didn’t lie to Zhang Ruochen as he sped forward for six hundred miles, and suddenly, the layers and layers of mountains disappeared and were replaced by a savage swamp filled with watery air. ww.w.
This place had fresh air, beautiful scenery, blue sky and white clouds, definitely a spiritual mountain sanctuary.
The clear water of the lake stretched for an unknown number of thousands of miles, and at a glance one couldn’t see the edge at all, except for a number of large and small islands scattered across the surface of the lake.
Vaguely, Zhang Ruochen could feel a powerful aura emanating from some of these islands.
Zhang Ruochen took a deep breath, an intoxicated look appeared on his face as he said, “It’s truly a treasure land for cultivation, no wonder the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race has been living here for generations instead of moving to the Eastern Divine Soil.”
Xiao Hei said, “80,000 miles of Divine Dream Zea, is originally a fertile land, the annual birth of spiritual medicines and holy relics far exceeds that of other cultivation sanctuaries, I don’t know how many human forces and savage beast races are hitting on Divine Dream Zea’s idea.”
“It’s just a pity that Divine Dream Ze is at the junction of the Eastern Domain and the Barbarian Mystic Realm, its geographical location is very special, and if it wasn’t for the Divine Dragon Half-Human Race, which possesses half Divine Dragon blood and half human blood, occupying this place, I’m afraid that the human races and Barbarian Beasts would’ve already killed their way through the land here.”
Zhang Ruochen nodded.
Obviously, he had some knowledge of the Divine Dream Zephyr, as well.
“How are we going to find the spatial wormhole, are we going to directly break into the Divine Dream Zephyr?”
Xiao Hei was worried that Zhang Ruochen would break in hard and reminded, “The Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race is not any other Demi-Human Race, they have inherited part of the power of the Divine Dragon, they also possess some of the techniques and martial skills of the Divine Dragon Race, their inheritance is longer than even the Medieval Lineage, and their strength is quite formidable, and they are definitely more than a few Saints.”
“I certainly won’t go in hard.”
Zhang Ruochen took out a token and cupped it in his hand, saying, “With it, it should be able to make me a guest of honour of the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race.”
On the token, there were three pale characters printed on it – Two Yi Sect.
The Two Yi Sect and the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race had always had a friendly and allied relationship, with much strategic co-operation and interests.
Zhang Ruochen entered the Divine Dream Zea, and not long after, on the surface of the lake, waves of water several feet high surged up. A patrol in scale armour, twenty in total, riding twenty aquatic savage beasts, blocked Zhang Ruochen’s path.
The person standing at the forefront of the patrol guards was named Ao Zhuan, in his thirties.
He held a long sword and pointed straight at Zhang Ruochen on the opposite side of the road, saying, “Come on, stop, this place is the Divine Dream Swamp, except for the clansmen of the Divine Dragon Half-Human Race, neither the human races nor the savage beasts are allowed to enter.”
Ao Zhan was the seventh commander of the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race’s patrol army, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Ninth Order Half-Saint, and he possessed a not-so-low status in the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race.
Ever since the two Sacred Dragon Envoys had arrived at the Divine Dream Marsh, the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race had entered a state of high alert, and Ao Zhan personally stationed himself at the entrance to the Divine Dream Marsh, where any living beings that intruded in would be intercepted.
Zhang Ruochen wore a Daoist robe, appearing breezy as he took out the token of the Sacred Transmission Disciple of the Two Elemental Sect and said, “I am the Transmission Disciple of the Two Elemental Sect, and I have come here to pay a visit to the Divine Dragon Demi-human Race’s Clan Chief.”
Ao Zhan received the token and carefully inspected it to make sure that it was indeed the Sacred Transmission Disciple Token of the Two Yi Sect.
Staring at Zhang Ruochen once again, Ao Zhan’s eyes also became a little friendlier. The main point was that with his cultivation level, he could not even see the other party’s true appearance at all.
It could only mean that either the other party’s cultivation far exceeded his, or the other party’s spiritual power was very powerful.
Either way, the other party was definitely a big shot of the Two Elemental Sect and a valued guest of the Divine Dragon Half Human Race, and could definitely not be offended.
Zhang Ruochen did not change his appearance, but released his spiritual power to shroud his entire body, so that only a figure with spiritual power above him would be able to see his true form.
Ao Zhan laughed, “I don’t know what your name is, and which Saint of the Two Element Sect you learnt from?”
“My surname is Zhang, but I am just a nameless person, in the Sword Pavilion, I once studied with the Burial Moon Sword Saint for a period of time.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Ao Zhan revealed a look of solemn respect, although the other party spoke humbly, however, to be able to enter the Sword Pavilion and study along with the Burial Moon Sword Saint, was he not a simple person?
“Brother Zhang, please.”
The aquatic savage beast at Ao Zhuan’s feet was named Shi Beast, belonging to the upper sixth rank savage beast, with a body that was more than eighty metres long, much like a huge rhinoceros swimming in the water.
Zhang Ruochen flew onto the back of the Shi Beast and stood side by side with Ao Zhan as he travelled towards the depths of the Divine Dream Zea.
Ao Zhan was very interested in Zhang Ruochen, an eager light appeared in his eyes as he asked, ”Brother Zhang is able to cultivate with the Burial Moon Sword Saint, his attainments in the Sword Dao should be very high, right? Comprehending the Wordless Sword Spectrum to the sword several times?”
Zhang Ruochen looked at the scenic Divine Dream Zephyr, standing against the wind with his hands behind his back, and laughed, “I have only studied with the Sui Funeral Moon Sword Saint for such a short period of time, and am not his old man’s disciple, so how can I have much attainment in the Dao of the Sword?”
Zhang Ruochen naturally did not dare to tell the truth.
Could he tell Ao Zhan that he had already cultivated Sword Six to great perfection and had some research on Sword Seven as well?
Ao Zhan’s curiosity was great, and he asked immediately after, “Brother Zhang’s cultivation level, it should be very high, right? How many times have you crossed the Paramount Saint Tribulation?”
This time, Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue to evade and told the truth, saying, “I just crossed the third Quasi-Saint Tribulation.”
Ao Zhan immediately revealed a look of envy, and the way he looked at Zhang Ruochen was all a little different, with more awe.
Having crossed the third Quasi-Saint Tribulation, one would definitely be able to become a Saint as well.
The difference in status between a Saint and a Half-Saint was like that between an Emperor and a courtier, definitely a world of difference.
Ao Zhan continued to dialogue with Zhang Ruochen, and they were all much more cautious, not daring to be as casual as they were just now.
Along the way, Zhang Ruochen saw many guards and encountered many defence formations, and each time, Ao Zhan personally needed to intervene before the other party would open the defence formation to let them pass.
Doubts arose in Zhang Ruochen’s heart, but he deliberately showed a careless look and laughed, “The Divine Dragon Half Human Race is really heavily guarded, is it always like this?”
Ao Zhuan said, “Not really, only, recently ……”
Speaking here, Ao Zhi paused slightly before adding, “Recently, the unrest in the Barbarian Desolate Mysterious Realm has become more and more ferocious, so it is only natural that the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race has to step up their guard as well.”
Zhang Ruochen was able to hear that Ao Zhuo was not telling the truth, but did not pursue the matter, instead closing his eyes and continuing to start healing his injuries.
Before entering the Divine Dream Zea, the Fung Chun Dan that Little Black had refined had already come out, twelve in total.
Zhang Ruochen swallowed one of them and refined it while rushing along, and now, a large portion of the injuries on his body had already recovered.
“The Fengchun Pill indeed possesses miraculous effects, worthy of being a Sacred Pill for Healing. There are times when one Fung Chun Dan is enough to compare to a life.”Zhang Ruochen secretly said.
The speed of the Shio Beast was very fast, and in just two hours, it carried Zhang Ruochen and Ao Zhan together to a large island in the hinterland of the Divine Dream Swamp.
This island was extremely huge, boasting a two thousand li long coastline, shrouded in white clouds and fog, giving off a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.
More than half of the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Race’s clansmen lived on top of this island.
Entering the Dragon Spirit Island, Zhang Ruochen and Ao Zhan quickly arrived at the Divine Dragon Hall and walked straight in.
Ao Zhan had already sent a message to the clan leader of the Divine Dragon Demi-human Race, reporting about Zhang Ruochen in advance and receiving the clan leader’s permission. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so bold as to directly lead Zhang Ruochen into the Divine Dragon Great Hall.
Being both a Triple Triumphant Quasi-Saint and having learnt the Sword Dao with the accompanying Burial Moon Sword Saint, he was definitely a big shot of the Two Elemental Sect, and it was only natural that the Divine Dragon Demi-Human Clan’s Clan Chief would personally receive him.
Zhang Ruochen bowed respectfully and said, “Greetings to the Patriarch.”
Ao Yi stared down at the young man from the Two Eyes Sect below, only feeling that a layer of mist always shrouded the other party’s body, and even with the use of his Sacred Eyes, he was unable to see his appearance clearly.
“What a powerful young man, you shouldn’t be some third-jacked quasi-Saint, but a Spiritual Power Saint, right?”
Ao Yi’s voice, became a few points deeper and colder as he said, “There are only a few Spiritual Power Saints in the Two Element Sect, and old me knows all of them, there is no such person as you.”?Zhang Ruochen appeared calm and laughed, “How deep the Two Yi Sect is, even the Saint within the sect doesn’t know exactly how many strong people there are in the Two Yi Sect. How can the patriarch be so sure that I am not a Spiritual Saint of the Two Yi Sect?”
Ao Yi said, “But why did you claim that you are a three-jacked quasi-Saint, and, furthermore, claimed to have studied with the Burial Moon Sword Saint for a period of time? Isn’t that not self-contradictory?”
“There is no self-contradiction. Not only am I a Spiritual Power Saint, I am also a Third Happening Quasi-Saint, and I am also a Sword Cultivator.”
Zhang Ruochen’s two fingers joined together and pinched out a sword technique.
“Wow…”
In an instant, thousands of sword qi emerged from the entire Divine Dragon Hall, emitting ear-piercing sword chirps as they flew around Zhang Ruochen.
“So powerful.”
Even with Ao Yi’s state of mind and cultivation, he secretly praised.
At such a young age, with such a high level of spiritual power and sword dao attainments, he was definitely an inheritor secretly cultivated by the Two Element Sect.
Not simple, very not simple.
Ao Yi asked, “What exactly is the purpose of your visit to the Divine Dream Zephyr to pay a visit to old me?”
Before Zhang Ruochen could answer, he saw Ao Zhan walking in quickly from the outside of the Divine Dragon Hall with a somewhat anxious expression, saying, “Reporting to the Patriarch, the two Sacred Dragon Ambassadors went to Heartmoon Lake and wanted to see Princess Yan, but they were rejected at the door. At this moment, they even tried to force their way into the Heart Moon Lake, they couldn’t even stop them, even the Chancellor was injured by them.”
“Damn it, what are you guys doing, robbing people?”
The anger in Ao Yi’s heart completely erupted, saying, “You stay and receive the guests, I will personally go to Heart Moon Lake.”
“Ow!”
Ao Yi transformed into a huge dragon shadow, rushed up from the top of the seat, and left the Divine Dragon Hall.
“Princess Yan ……”
Zhang Ruochen chanted out a sentence to himself, then, asked, “Commander Ao War, what exactly happened? What Holy Dragon Envoy?”
Since he had already spilled the beans, Ao Zhan did not continue to hide it from Zhang Ruochen, and told him about the two Holy Dragon Envoys. After all, the Two Yi Sect and the Divine Dragon Half Human Race had always been allies in the same attack and retreat, and were not considered outsiders.
