Ao Xin Yan stared at the sprightly figure in front of her, gently pursed her small mouth, and said, “In this era, there are many geniuses and groups of people, but the number of beings who can compete with you can be counted on five fingers. Team Leader, you were originally the most outstanding human pride in the Kunlun Realm in the last hundred years, and now is the era that belongs to you, and you represent the centre of this era’s Qi. Therefore, every move you make will be taken very seriously by all the major powers.”
Ao Xin Yan’s words were somewhat exaggerated, yet, they were not without reason.
Every person had a different kind of Qi Luck, and without the support of great Qi Luck, Zhang Ruochen could not have achieved what he did now, nor could he have become the most outstanding figure of the younger generation.
Even the humans and savage beasts that followed him were able to obtain the augmentation of their Qi Luck, receiving benefits that far exceeded those of other living beings.
To say that he represented the centre of an era’s Qi Luck was, in fact, not an exaggeration at all.
Zhang Ruochen and the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, two beings with great Qi Luck, entering the Yin Yang Sea at the same time, naturally alarmed the entire Kunlun Realm.
“Huh!”
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen raised his head and looked to the west, his eyes narrowing as he said, “What’s the situation? Could it be that there are other forces, sending strong people to rush to the Yin Yang Sea?”
To the west of the Dragon Flame Dao, the calm sea surface lifted up a hundred feet high water waves, emitting a deep and muddled sound.
A white mist surged out from the back of the water waves, rapidly approaching Dragonfire Island.
In the mist, gradually, the shadow of a white undead ancient ship emerged.
Although it was far away, but, Zhang Ruochen still used his Heavenly Eyes to see a few familiar figures on the ancient ship, Chi Huan Wang, Wan Huayu, Bu Qianfan, and Age Cold ……
All of them were the most famous rising stars in the court in the recent decades, and behind them, they all had behemoth-like power backgrounds.
“The court’s men and women have unexpectedly entered the Yin Yang Sea as well.”Zhang Ruochen said to himself.
Ao Xin Yan’s face changed slightly as she said, “Could it be that someone has leaked your whereabouts?”
“Impossible.”
Zhang Ruochen dismissed Ao Xinyan’s conjecture.
Other than Little Black, only Huang Yichen and Qing Mo knew that he was heading to the Yin Yang Sea to search for the Divine Dragon Sun and Moon Chaos Pagoda and the recipe for the Six Saints Ascending to Heaven Wine.
It was impossible for Huang Yichen and Qing Mo to inform the court, so there must be another reason.
Zhang Ruochen said, “The Immortal God’s Palace was able to project my whereabouts, the Earth God’s Palace formed by the imperial court said that it might not necessarily be able to do the same.”
The Earth God Temple recruited countless spiritual power cultivators under the sky, with the strength to change the heavens and the earth, and was incomparably mysterious and powerful, independent of the six departments of the imperial court, forming its own system, and directly following the orders of the Empress.
Rumour has it that three hundred years ago, “The Living Bodhisattva”, the head of the Temple of the Earth God, had a nine-day discussion with the Crown Prince Wang Shiqi.
Wang Shiqi praised him and considered him to be the most likely human being in the Kunlun Realm to become a Great Sage of Spirituality after the Buddha Emperor and the Emperor of Wen.
Now, three hundred years had passed, and that living Bodhisattva, most likely, had become a Great Saint of Spiritual Power. If that was the case, it wouldn’t be strange for the court to be able to know that Zhang Ruochen had entered the Yin Yang Sea.
“The young saints from the Immortal Blood Clan and the imperial court have already arrived, so it’s not certain that there will be more young saints from more forces entering the Yin Yang Sea next, so we have to hurry up before we can do so.”Zhang Ruochen said.
“Rumble.”
As soon as Zhang Ruochen’s words fell, the flame barrier cracked open a gap in the south and west of Dragonfire Island respectively.
A large number of saints from the Immortal Blood Race and the Imperial Court, as if they were points of light, passed through the slit and flew into the island.
Obviously, they had all come prepared, carrying gate seals.
At the foot of the mountain, the Sacred Flower Eater had sucked the Xuan Hedgehog Sacred Beast into a dry corpse, leaving only a skin with thorns.
The cultivation of the Sacred Flower Eater had grown by a large amount, and its aura was very strong, however, it had not broken through to the Upper Realm Saint realm.
“After refining three Saint Sources and two Saint Beast corpses in a row, I’m surprised that I still couldn’t break through the realm.”The Saint Eating Flower was quite disappointed.
In the flower, the beautiful silhouette, using chu-chu eyes, stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Master, if you give me another Saint Source, I will definitely be able to break through.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “The fact that you haven’t broken through to the Upper Realm Saint realm isn’t because you haven’t absorbed enough nutrients, it’s because the nutrients you have absorbed are too refuted and not pure enough. When I collect a Dash Spirit Dragon Flame to help you quench the Saint Qi in your body, you should be able to break through to the realm soon.”
Zhang Ruochen took the Sacred Eating Flower back into his body and performed the Great Spatial Shift, taking Little Black and Ao Xinyan across space, and after three jumps in a row, he finally arrived at the top of the volcano in the centre of the island.
The volcano, more than 9,000 metres high, towered above the clouds, majestic, ring-shaped structure, with a large amount of black smoke coming out from the interior of the mountain.
Without having jumped down from the volcano yet, just standing at the top of the mountain, the temperature in the air was also incredibly high.
Zhang Ruochen stared towards Ao Xinyan and said, “Your cultivation hasn’t reached the Saint realm, so it’s better if you don’t jump down and just wait for me up there.”
“No, I have the Dragon Pearl protecting my body, so I won’t be burnt to death even if I enter the interior of the volcano.”
Ao Xin Yan’s gaze was firm as she added, “I must go and collect a Bolt Spirit Dragon Flame, only by using the Bolt Spirit Dragon Flame to quench my flesh will I be able to possess the same powerful strength as the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon after my True Dragon Body comes into full fruition.”
Zhang Ruochen stared deeply at her, not wanting to discourage her.
After all, with Ao Xin Yan’s qualifications, coupled with such a strong belief, when the True Dragon Body was fully accomplished, she might not be incapable of fighting against the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon.
“Good, go down together.”
Zhang Ruochen and Ao Xinyan jumped down into the crater one after the other.
Instead of jumping down, Xiao Hei came to the foot of the volcano to carve formation inscriptions in preparation for the battle that might erupt next.
Dragon Fire Island was the yang eye of the Yin Yang Sea.
The location where the volcano was located was again the heart of the Yang Eye, and only Saint realm beings could barely withstand the high temperatures inside the volcano.
Zhang Ruochen wore the Ten Saint Blood Armour and held up the seventy-two layers of Sacred Light and Sacred Soul Realm as he hurriedly rushed deeper into the ground.
Inside the volcano, it was as if it was a heaven and earth furnace, filled with crimson magma and a blazing holy fire that could melt everything in the world.
The further downwards one went, the higher the temperature became.
Rushing into the two thousand three hundred metres of the ground, Ao Xin Yan stopped, a pained look on her face, but she still clenched her teeth in an effort to support herself.
Zhang Ruochen said, “You don’t need to continue rushing towards the bottom of the earth, just stay at this location, you might be able to find a Bolt Dragon Flame as well.”
The Spirit Dragon Flame was distributed inside the magma, and the further downwards one went, the higher the probability of finding it.
In Ao Xin Yan’s current position, the probability of finding the Spirit Dragon Flame was extremely low.
Ao Xin Yan also knew that with her cultivation, she couldn’t continue to rush down to the ground and said, “I’ll stay here to cultivate, and take this opportunity to impact the realm of the second stage of the Quasi-Saint.”
Ao Xin Yan found a more secluded location and sat in the centre of a layer of flames, running her gong methods and going all out to cultivate.
Even if she couldn’t find the Spirit Dragon Flame, as long as she was able to break through the realm, it would still be considered a worthwhile trip.
Zhang Ruochen rushed deeper into the ground, three thousand metres, four thousand metres, five thousand metres ……
When he reached five thousand metres underground, a hint of alertness arose in Zhang Ruochen’s heart, sensing danger, so he swung out his Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and slashed forward.
Below him, a ten-metre-long cyan-coloured giant axe parted the magma and chopped upwards.
The axe, which was several times more massive than Zhang Ruochen’s body, carried the terrifying power of splitting mountains.
“Boom!”
The axe blade collided with the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword with an ear-piercing roar.
Zhang Ruochen flew backwards upwards for more than a hundred metres before he was able to defuse that impact.
His arms were very sore, and even the sword in his hand had some unsteady grip.
“Ow!”
An ear-shattering whistling sound came from below.
Only to see, a one-armed giant that was more than twenty metres tall, carrying a giant axe, rushed through the crimson magma and attacked Zhang Ruochen.
On the one-armed giant’s body, there was a palm-sized dragon scale, emitting a stream-like dragon Qi.
Using his Heavenly Eyes, Zhang Ruochen stared at the one-armed giant’s body and realised that his true body was not a human, but a savage dragon.
“Rumble.”
Zhang Ruochen once again clashed with the one-armed giant and was thrown upwards for another hundred metres, his arm becoming even more sore.
With the strength of his Flesh Body Sainthood, he was surprisingly still no match for it.
“Worthy of being a savage dragon, it really is a forceful and rigid fleshly body.”
Zhang Ruochen mobilised his Sacred Qi and ran it through the meridians and Sacred Veins of his arm for a week, and the pain then disappeared.
“This Saint is the young ruler of the Barbarian Dragon Clan, Xin Tong, with your weak human body, being able to catch two axes from this Saint is already quite remarkable.”The one-armed giant said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “So it’s the Barbaric Dragon Clan’s Young Sovereign, his strength is really okay, and he is even a step more powerful than the Snow Chaste Demoness.”
The Barbarian Dragon Young Monarch, Xing Tong, was also one of the top young Saint Beasts cultivated by the Ancestral Dragon Mountain, and this time, following the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, he entered the Yin Yang Sea.
To be able to be called a Young Monarch, it also meant that Fortunate Child had the purest royal bloodline of the Barbarian Dragon Clan, and was not just a fraction of a star more powerful than the average Barbarian Dragon.
“If, this Saint breaks through to the Xuan Huang realm, he only needs one axe to cleave the Snow Chaste Demoness to death. You’re actually comparing this Saint to her, are you humiliating this Saint?”The Barbarian Dragon Young Sovereign roared angrily.
Barbarian Dragon Young Sovereign was only at the cultivation level of an Upper Realm Saint, yet his strength was still above the Snow Chaste Demoness.
Suddenly, the Barbarian Dragon Young Sovereign thought of a place that was out of place and said in astonishment, “The Snow Chaste Demoness and the Xuan Hedgehog Sacred Beast are guarding the outside, how did you manage to enter the crater?”
“They have naturally both died under my sword.”Zhang Ruochen said.
“You are that mysterious human sword cultivator?”
The Barbarian Dragon Young Monarch stared with a pair of wide eyes, revealing a wary expression.
After the Snow Chaste Demoness and the Xuan Hedgehog Sacred Beast teamed up, the Barbarian Dragon Young Monarch would fight with them and battle quite hard. This human in front of him was actually able to kill them?
The Barbarian Dragon Young Sovereign didn’t believe that this human was really that powerful and said, “Nonsense, with your strength, it’s impossible to win against one of them. Being able to kill them?”
“Whether you believe it or not, it actually doesn’t matter at all.”
Zhang Ruochen stopped talking more nonsense with the Barbarian Dragon Young Sovereign and chanted, “Sacred Eating Flower.”?
The Sacred Eating Flower rushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s back, and on the vines, lightning was flowing all over. The bucket-thick vines lashed out and struck the Barbarian Dragon Young Monarch’s waist, causing it to fly out horizontally and disappear into the lava.
