Zhang Ruochen raised his head and looked at the Sacred Tree that was full of red flowers, feeling quite incredible.
“How does it compare to your Way of Space and Way of Time?”The Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden stood under the tree with her hands behind her back, her slender figure outlining a beautiful curve.
In person, it was more beautiful than a flower.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Not bad.”
Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden had the intention of competing with Zhang Ruochen, however, seeing that Zhang Ruochen was actually so calm, she did not continue to speak more, and directly spoke out about her intention to meet him, saying, “You know about what happened at the top of the Wind Dome in the Inner South Garden, right?”
“Know.”
“Is there any interest in following this Heavenly Maiden to break into that palace complex and seek a supreme great opportunity?”Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden said.
Zhang Ruochen directly refused, “It’s too dangerous, don’t go.”
If, the palace cluster that suddenly emerged from the top of the Wind Dome was truly connected to that palace in the depths of the Forbidden Area, it would also be absolutely impossible to break in.
Even ancient ferocious creatures at the level of Great Saints had appeared, so what was the difference between them, the cultivators, barging in and sending them to their deaths?
Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden’s eyebrows knitted slightly as she said, ”With the information I’ve gathered, Zhang Ruochen shouldn’t be a timid and fearful person. The rumours are somewhat untrue!”
“It has nothing to do with being timid or not, I just don’t want to go and send myself to death.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden said, “I master the Origin Way, and you master time and space, with the two of us joining forces, even if that palace complex is dangerous, we will still be able to come and go as we please?”
“Come and go as you please?”
In Zhang Ruochen’s mind, an image surfaced, in the cold and dark void space, there was a huge divine hand suspended, radiating out all like a waterfall hanging between heaven and earth.
It was because of that divine hand that it was impossible to use spatial teleportation in the palace complex, and even if one were to force it to be used, it would still be tremendously treacherous.
How easy was it to come and go as you please?
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes became firmer as he waved his hand and said, “In this matter, there is nothing to talk about, Your Highness the Heavenly Maiden, please return.”
The Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden did not die and added, “What if, I know the place where the Sacred Monk of Sumeru fell?”
A brilliant light appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as he asked, “Where is it?”
The Thousand Star Celestial Maiden smiled faintly, “As long as you make a trip to the Wind Dome with me, I will naturally tell you. As far as I know, the Sumeru Saint Monk left behind a supreme inheritance in the Fallen Land, and over the past 100,000 years, the Time Divine Hall and Space Divine Hall have spent an unknown amount of energy and financial resources searching for the place, but alas, they have still only managed to find a few traces of the place, and are unable to pinpoint the exact location.”
Zhang Ruochen gradually regained his composure, pondering over the truthfulness of Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden’s words, and said, “On what basis do I believe that you know the place where the Sacred Monk of Sumeru fell?”
As if she had expected Zhang Ruochen to ask such a question, the Thousand Star Celestial Maiden said, “One hundred thousand years ago, the Sacred Monk of Sumeru and a divine Ancestor of the Thousand Star Civilisation were quite friendly, and they even exchanged a whisker with each other.”
“When a huge change occurred in the Kunlun Realm, the long whisker belonging to the Sumeru Holy Monk that was in the hands of the divine Ancestor sent out a divine thought. The Divine Ancestor knew that the Sumeru Holy Monk had an accident, so he immediately rushed to help, but unfortunately …… still went one step too late, and the tragedy had already been born.”
As she spoke, the Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden took out a starry iron box and handed it to Zhang Ruochen.
The iron box, a square, was ancient and heavy, with starlight constantly flying out, and at a glance, it was clear that it was definitely not made using unusual metal casting.
Zhang Ruochen slowly opened the iron box, and immediately, pure and extreme Buddhist light escaped, accompanied by the sound of Brahma in the sky.
Through the Buddhist light, one could see that there was a long white beard lying at the bottom of the iron box.
It was just a white whisker, but it contained majestic Buddha power that was continuously purifying the darkness and ancient Yin Qi in the forbidden area, divine to the extreme.
At this moment, the Secret Code of Time and Space on Zhang Ruochen’s body emitted a faint silver-coloured light that resonated with the white beard.
“Wow…”
On top of the silver-coloured paper, some strange patterns emerged, and each page of the silver paper was like a bright starry sky that seemed to be able to become infinitely huge.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t notice anything strange about the Secret Code of Space and Time, his attention was completely focused on the white beard.
“That’s ……”
Zhang Ruochen opened his Heavenly Eyes and gazed at the white whiskers, now the interior of the white whiskers was white and indistinct, like …… there was a huge space.
The cultivation of the Sacred Monk of Sumeru was not something that ordinary cultivators could understand, even if a long beard cultivated a world, it was not something strange.
Zhang Ruochen detected a trace of an odd aura in that long beard, and it was as if there was a voice in the underworld telling him that Saint Monk Sumeru had left him something in the long beard.
The Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden’s eyes became incomparably bright, and her heart secretly wondered, ”Worthy of being a Time and Space Transmitter, in his presence, the long whiskers actually produced a throbbing that had never been seen before. Could it be that it was really as the old ancestor had said, that Sage Monk Sumeru senior had left a world inside the long whiskers?”
Zhang Ruochen stretched out his fingers, wanting to twist the white whiskers and probe the space behind the white mist.
“Boom.”
The Thousand Star Celestial Maiden closed the lid of the box and snatched it back, saying, “This is the long whisker left by the Sacred Monk of Sumeru for the family ancestor, and it now belongs to the Thousand Star Civilisation.”
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, fixed on the top of the box, did not make a move to seize it, but said calmly, “Even if you have a long beard left behind by the Sacred Monk of Sumeru, it doesn’t mean that, you know the place of his elder’s fall.”
“I am the Heavenly Maiden of the Thousand Star Civilisation, a figure who is going to become the Heavenly Lord of the civilisation in the future, would I still lie to you with falsehoods?”The Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden said with some disdain.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t know how many times he had been lied to by women, even a woman who had become a god would lie to people, let alone a Heavenly Maiden.
Zhang Ruochen said, “That temple at the top of the Wind Dome is a treacherous place, and it is said that many cultivators have been buried there. Going to break in with you is undoubtedly a great risk, and you may even put your life on the line. Based on Her Highness the Heavenly Maiden’s words, there’s absolutely no way I’m going to risk my life. Unless ……”
Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden hurriedly asked, “Unless what?”
“Unless, you hand over that long beard to me, I can instead make a trip with you.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Out of Zhang Ruochen’s expectation, Thousand Star Celestial Maiden agreed with alacrity.
Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly, feeling that this matter was somewhat abnormal. Even if the Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden couldn’t see the abnormality of the long whiskers, couldn’t so many high ranking people in the Thousand Star Civilisation also fail to see it?
She was too quick to agree, right?
What Zhang Ruochen didn’t know was that when that Divine Ancestor of the Thousand Star Civilisation handed the long whiskers to the Thousand Star Celestial Maiden, he had explained to her that if she met the Time Successor, she should pass the long whiskers to him.
Zhang Ruochen added, “I have one more condition. Before I go to the Wind Dome, I must first raise my cultivation to the three-step Saint King realm and raise my spiritual strength to the fifty-seventh rank. The required holy fruits and holy pills will be provided to me by you.”
“Fine, I promise you.”
The Thousand Star Celestial Maiden didn’t feel that this condition was excessive, after all, the Wind Dome was indeed dangerous and one needed to fight for their lives. If it wasn’t for the fact that one of the clan’s old ancestors was nearing the end of his lifespan and was in dire need of a divine spring to renew his life, even she would definitely not have taken the risk.
As for the holy fruits and holy pills that boosted cultivation and spiritual power, it was even simpler for her.
The Thousand Star Civilisation had many experts, and in the Inner and Outer Four Gardens, they had harvested quite a few holy fruits and holy pills. Just like the Thousand Star Celestial Maiden herself, when she entered the God Sealing Stage, she didn’t even have to pick them herself, and only had to swallow the holy fruits and holy pills sent by other cultivators to raise her cultivation.
It was precisely for this reason that Thousand Star Celestial Maiden’s cultivation was able to go ahead of Zhang Ruochen’s, breaking through the three-step Saint King realm first.
After the Thousand Star Heavenly Maiden left, Xiang Chunan walked out from the darkness with a somewhat odd expression and said, “Brother Ruochen, is that Truth Upanishad really as precious as you guys say?”
Zhang Ruochen asked rhetorically, “Do you believe me?”
“Believe, of course.”Xiang Chunan said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Even if the Truth Upanishad is as precious as it is, I definitely won’t seize the one on you.”
“I, Xiang Chunan, will absolutely not either… Besides, no matter how precious the Truth Upanishad is, is it as precious as brotherly love? Brother Ruochen, why don’t I give you all of the Truth Upanishads now?”Xiang Chunan said with his heart and lungs out, fearing that because of the Truth Upanishad, it would cause the two to have a gap.
“Never. If you do this, how can we not even be brothers anymore!”
After a pause, Zhang Ruochen’s expression became much more serious as he added, “I’m going to make a trip to Wind Dome, so I’m afraid I’ll have to part ways for a while first.”
“I’ll go with you, barging through the mountains of swords and seas of fire together.”Xiang Chunan patted his broad chest and hip.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “My feud with the Heaven Realm faction has already dragged you into this, this time, I can’t possibly let you risk your life again no matter what.”
Xiang Chunan was about to say something when Zhang Ruochen immediately added, “The reason I won’t let you go is because I have another, even more important matter that I want to ask you for.”
After handing over Mu Lingshi to Xiang Chunan, Zhang Ruochen stepped into the Free Trade Park again alone.
Of course, he had changed his appearance and figure again, looking to be in his twenties, wearing a cloth coat, with a plain appearance.
Calmness returned to the Free Trade Park, only that, all the way forward, Zhang Ruochen heard many cultivators discussing the great battle that had occurred earlier, and calling him and Xiang Chunan as two mysterious weirdos with extremely terrifying strength.
Some speculated that they were the rising stars of the Eastern Dominant World Pangu Realm;
Some speculated that they were divine Transmission disciples secretly cultivated by the Truth Divine Hall.
These speculations of theirs were not baseless.
Because, so far, the ten divine Transmission Disciples sitting on the God Sealing Platform had surprisingly not issued an arrest order, it was obvious that there were figures with heavenly means behind them who had suppressed this matter.
To make the Paradise Realm faction suffer a great loss and still not be held accountable, such a background just made one feel shaky just thinking about it. It would be normal to speculate above the Pangu Realm and the Truth Divine Hall.
It wasn’t long before Zhang Ruochen finally arrived underneath a magnificent Weaponry Refining Pavilion, raising his head to look upwards, he couldn’t even see the top of the pavilion, and could only sense that there was a strong Holy Dao aura radiating out from the Weaponry Refining Pavilion.
Such a tall Weaponry Refining Pavilion could be said to be one of the best in the Free Trade Park.
“Rumble.”
At the same time, a carriage wrapped in white holy light travelled from afar, and pulling it were eight white-feathered peacocks.
The walls of the holy carriage were decorated with all sorts of small and exquisite treasures, including a wind chime at the level of a Ten Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifact, a Green Stripe Gourd that was born to grow in the earth, as well as a Snow Grass, a Sacred Chalcedony …… and so on.
With the holy car running, the wind chime shaking, the gourd gently ringing, the chalcedony flowing …… actually intertwined a heavenly melodious music.
Driving, is an extremely beautiful woman, she stands on the head of a white feathered peacock, her body is radiant, it is the disciple of the Heavenly Primordial Immortal, Li Miaohan, once ranked nineteenth in the List of Saints’ Merits and Virtues.
