God Emperor - Chapter 2072

Chapter 2072: The Resurrection of the Female Three-eyed Ancient Corpse

After the seclusion had ended, the Sect of the Blood God’s overall strength had taken a great leap. Be it Saints or Saint Kings, all of them had greatly increased in numbers, allowing everyone to see the hope of a revival.

As long as it continued to develop this way, the Sect of the Blood God would be able to rise again sooner or later and stand proudly among all realms.

It was also because of this, everyone in the sect was even more in awe of the Grand Master, Zhang Ruochen, as all of the changes, were after all, due to him.

Jin Yu, Luo Chen and Bao Lie had all reached the Path’s Anterior-realm, and was difficult to make any great improvements, but they too still made some good gains.

The only thing that Zhang Ruochen felt pity for was that both Mu Lingxi and Han Xue were not able to break through to the Heaven’s Reach Realm as they ran into bottlenecks like Zhang Ruochen did. They had cultivated way too quickly, and most of the precepts they had cultivated were mostly minor paths.

If there was no special opportunity, it would be difficult for them to break into the Heaven’s Reach realm, and would need to accumulate for a period of time.

“Master, I want to go out to train and gain experience, and also look for opportunities for my breakthrough.”

As she thought about it, Han Xue walked over and said seriously. “Master, I want to go out to train alone, to broaden my knowledge, and seek an opportunity for my breakthrough.”

Clearly, Han Xue was also aware of her own problems, and secluding alone would take who knows how long for her to get her breakthrough.

The Thousand Bone Physique’s potential would require countless battles to be fully tapped.

Zhang Ruochen instantly understood what Han Xue was thinking and nodded. “Whatever you want to do, do it, Master will support you. Just be careful with everything. If you run into troubles that you cannot solve, inform me.”

“Yes, I know. Master, Mistress, Blackie, Senior Uncles, all of you take care.” A look of reluctance appeared in Han Xue’s eyes as she bid goodbye to Zhang Ruochen and the others.

After coming back from the Infernal Court, she had no chance to get along with Zhang Ruochen, and now she had to part ways with him again, she had much hesitancy in her heart.

But, she was the heritor of the Empress of Thousand Bones, and was destined to walk an unusual path. The heart of taking that path must be extremely firm, and advance without fear and cut off all distracting thoughts.

In order to pursue the path of becoming a god, everything else can be thrown away.

WOOOSHHH!!

Han Xue did not delay any longer as she turned around and stepped the air and flew away from the Sect of the Blood God grounds.

Watching Han Xue leave, Zhang Ruochen had a complex look in his eyes. Han Xue’s growth had both pleased him and pained him at the same time.

Because he knew that Han Xue’s current achievements were paved with a lot of hardships.

As her master, all he can do was to give her his full support.

Zhang Ruochen believed that in the near future, Han Xue would be able to become the new Empress of Thousand Bones, and gain fame. But it was a pity that as a master, he did not seem to look the part.

Mu Lingxi walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side and said. “Since Han Xue had gone to seek experience, I too have to work hard. I am returning to the Phoenix Lake to obtain the inheritance from the Ancestral Ice Phoenix.”

Zhang Ruochen snapped back to his senses immediately, as he stared at Mu Lingxi and said. “Are you sure?”

“I wasn’t back then, but now my cultivation level had reached the peak of the Precept Dominion realm, and also cultivated the Heavenly Phoenix Body, so I should be able to accept the heritance. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything I’m not sure about.” Mu Lingxi said.

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen pondered a little, and then said. “Do as you wish then. Once I’m done with the matters of the sect, I’ll take you back to the Phoenix Lake.”

The current situation in Kunlun Realm was very complicated and perilous. For Mu Lingxi to go Phoenix Lake to accept the inheritance of the Ancestral Ice Phoenix, right or wrong aside, was undoubtedly a very good thing.

Should she be successful, then she would soar into the air like a veritable phoenix, and would stand to gain everything.

Immediately, Zhang Ruochen began to deal with some of the important matters within the sect. After the previous battle, there shouldn’t be anyone who would dare to come to find trouble with the Sect of the Blood God.

The only thing that Zhang Ruochen really need to be bothered about was how to deal with the Demonstone Engravings.

He did not cultivate demonic arts himself, so he did not plan to carry the Demonstone Engravings with him.

Except for the four pieces on Mu Lingxi, Du Mosheng, Pei Linhu and He Yuan. He needed to properly store the other eight pieces, not only to ensure their safety, but also to facilitate the cultivating of the disciples of the sect.

After some thoughts, Zhang Ruochen finally decided to place them into the underground space beneath the Blood God’s Altar, which was equivalent to let the Blood God’s divine corpse guard them.

With Zhang Ruochen’s various arrangements, as long as anyone dared touch the Demonstone Engravings, they would also touch the divine corpse of the Blood God, and the consequences of that was something even a true Supreme Saint would not be able to bear.

What Supreme Saint Xuefu of the Infernal Court had suffered earlier was proof of that.

AFter entrusting the affairs of the congregation to the elders, Zhang Ruochen left the sect grounds with Mu Lingxi and Blackie.

Blackie felt it would be boring staying in the Sect of the Blood God, and follow Zhang Ruochen would be much more interesting.

As soon as she returned to the Phoenix Lake, Mu Lingxi immediately entered the secret grounds, and could not wait to accept her ancestral inheritance. She had made up her mind this time that she would succeed this time no matter what.

Seeing Mu Lingxi entering the secret grounds, Zhang Ruochen whispered. “I hope everything goes well.”

Now he was at the Phoenix Lake, Zhang Ruochen was in no hurry to leave. There was nothing on right now, so he could use some relaxation and accompany Concubine Lin at the same time.

Earlier on, during the incident at Shengming City, he had left in a hurry, and had no time to say goodbye her.

And upon seeing Zhang Ruochen’s return, Concubine Lin was naturally very happy, and immediately wanted to prepare meals herself.

Zhang Ruochen pulled Concubine Lin and bade her to sit as he asked. “Mother, why I don’t see Kong Xuan around?”

In the past, Kong Xuan had always followed every step of Concubine Lin, but this time, she was missing.

Zhang Ruochen had already swept his spiritual power through the entire Phoenix Lake, but did not find Kong Xuan’s whereabouts.

“Kong Xuan is no longer here.” Concubine Lin said.

Zhang Ruochen showed a surprised look, saying. “Where did Kong Xuan go?”

“Chen’er, not long after you left, a mysterious person appeared and took Kong Xuan away.” Concubine Lin said.

Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly and said. “What mysterious person? Why take Kong Xuan away?”

This was the Phoenix Lake, and had two top-level Saint Kings of Guanghan standing guard her. For someone to break in and take Kong Xuan away, this was obviously no anybody.

A glint appeared in Concubine Lin’s eyes as she said. “That mysterious man, like Kong Xuan, had seven-colored wings, and said he wanted to take Kong Xuan to a place to cultivate. Kong Xuan was unwilling at first, and it was I who advised her to go. This is her opportunity, and it will be a shame for her to miss it.”

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen was surprised. He did not expect Concubine Lin to say such a thing at all.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen also understood something, and if he was not wrong, the person who took Kong Xuan away was a mysterious powerhouse of the peacock demi-human clan.

It was indeed a good thing that Kong Xuan can cultivate together with him.

In fact, when he came back earlier, he noticed Kong Xuan’s cultivation had reached the realm of a Saint King and that piqued Zhang Ruochen’s curiosity. The Sacred Peacock Tome he had given to Kong Xuan was incomplete, and it stood to reason that it was impossible for Kong Xuan to cultivate to the realm of a Saint King.

Coming to think of it, Kong Xuan should have encountered another opportunity, and that was probably related to the mysterious powerhouse of the peacock demi-human clan.

Zhang Ruochen looked forward to see Kong Xuan grow into a top-level powerhouse.

On the third day after arriving at Phoenix Lake. Zhang Ruochen went to the island at the center of the lake and called upon the Drunkard, and Gu Songzi to drink and chat.

The Drunkard and Gu Songzi’s days could be described as very leisurely. There was no need to go out to fight and kill, as they only needed to brew wine and refine elixers.

Gu Songzi’s expression suddenly changed. “Someone broke into the Phoenix Lake.”

Just at this moment, Zhang Ruochen noticed the slight spatial fluctuations in the Phoenix Lake as he turned around and cast his gaze over the vast blue lake.

Suddenly, a purple-robed woman stepping upon the water came into his eyes.

The figure of the woman in purple was extremely graceful, with exquisite features and without any blemishes. Her skin was white as jade, and her body exuded an extraordinary temperament, as if she was a fairy that came down from the heavens.

The most special thing about her was there was a vertical eye at the center of her forehead. It was as deep as a stars, and seemingly able to see through the essence of everything in the world.

“The Three-Eyed Ancients.”

Zhang Ruochen squinted his eyes slightly, and saw through the identity of the woman in purple at a glance.

The Three-Eyed Ancients, they were an extremely mysterious and powerful tribe of Kunlun Realm in the past.

However, in the Middle Ages, the Three-Eyed Ancient clan went extinct, leaving only legends behind.

Yet, at this moment, a woman Three-Eyed Ancients appeared before him, and that gave birth to many guesses in Zhang Ruochen’s mind.

But the Drunkard’s expression changed drastically at this instant as his eyes widened and stared at the woman in purple intently, with cold sweat on his forehead.

“How could it be her? Zhang Ruochen…. Don’t you think she look familiar?”

The Drunkard’s heart trembled as he could not believe what he saw.

Zhang Ruochen said. “Look familiar? Somewhat I guess, have we met her before? No, probably not.”

The Drunkard reminded him. “The Three-Eyed Ancient Clan had been destroyed back in the Middle Ages, but when we went to the Yinyang Sea, the ancestral grounds of the Shenlong clan, we had found a female Three-Eyed Ancient corpse at the deepest part of the desolate divine sea.

At this point, the Drunkard stopped again, and gasped.

Zhang Ruochen dug through that old memory and was stunned for a moment. That woman in purple actually looked exactly the same as the corpse they had found in the desolate divine sea.

It was really weird that an ancient corpse that had been dead for over a hundred thousand years would come back alive and appear before him.

In particular, the Drunkard felt very guilty, because he did took away the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower from the female corpse.

In a blink of an eye, the woman in purple appeared on the island at the center of the lake.

She ignored Zhang Ruochen and Gu Songzi as she stared at the Drunkard and said lightly. “Hand over the sacred artifact of my people.”

Hearing this, the Drunkard’s heart suddenly stopped. It seemed like his guess was right on the mark, and the woman in purple before him was the same one he had met in the desolate divine sea.

Recomposing himself, he said calmly. “What sacred artifact of your people? I don’t know what you are talking about. I’m afraid you got the wrong person.”

“Do you need me to specify it for you? Hand over the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower.” The expression of the woman in purple turned cold.

Although the Drunkard was a little wary of the woman in purple, but he still kept the charade up. “I don’t know what Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower you’re talking about. Don’t you accuse a good man for nothing.”

“Since you don’t want to play ball, then don’t blame me for not holding back then.” A cold glint appeared in the woman in purple’s eyes as she exuded an extremely terrifying aura.

Especially when her vertical eye on her eyes bloomed with a strange brilliance, locking the Drunkard in place seemingly able to rip his soul out.

“What strength.”

Sensing the aura unleashed by the woman in purple, Zhang Ruochen was somewhat moved.

He had faintly guessed that the woman in purple should be the same creature that was encased in iceberg at the bottom of the desolate divine sea and she was resurrected for some reason. There was still a trace of cold aura that belonged to the desolate divine sea.

Now that the woman in purple had resurrected, have all other in the iceberg also been resurrected.

There were countless icebergs in the desolate divine sea, and sealed within an iceberg was a corpse, and each of the corpses were all very powerful during their lifetime, each of them were Saints and above, with many of the Saint King realm as well.

Especially the creatures imprisoned on the stone bridge were extremely terrifying, with all of them terrifying demons. Blackie’s body was also imprisoned there.

If all of those creatures were resurrected, they would undoubtedly be an extremely terrifying force.

Many thoughts quickly flashed in his hand, and before the woman in purple struck, Zhang Ruochen moved and appeared before the Drunkard. He stretched his palm out and pressed it forward, forming a dazzling cloud of fire and neutralized the power enveloping the Drunkard.

A look of horro appeared in the eyes of the Drunkard as he became extremely wary of the woman in purple.

The moment the woman in purple locked him down, he really felt the claws of death approaching.

“You mean to stop me?” The woman in purple gave Zhang Ruochen and unfriendly look.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly and said. “I have no such intentions, I just did not want you to hurt my friend.”

Immediately after, Zhang Ruochen turned towards the Drunkard and said with a serious expression. “Drunkard, take the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower out. That is a sacred artifact of the Three-Eyed Ancients, it is not a good thing for you to hold on to it.

Upon hearing this, the Drunkard showed a look of reluctance, but after seeing the cold light in the eyes of the woman in purple, he had to listen to Zhang Ruochen and take out the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower.

Upon seeing the Drunkard’s reluctance, Zhang Ruochen had to take the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower from his hand and then tossed it at the woman in purple

“Thus the item is returned to its rightful owner.”

The woman in purple robe stretched her hand out and took the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower.

Immediately, the chill in her eyes faded away as her powerful aura were also retracted.

Her trip here was to take back the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower. If there was no need, she did not want any conflict with anyone.

Of course, if someone wanted to prevent her from retrieving the sacred artifacts of the Ancient Three-Eyed Clan, she would not mind using force.

As long as there was someone of the clan that was still around, the sacred artifacts of the clan were to never be lost to outsiders.

With a flip of her hand, the woman in purple put away the Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower before turning around and prepared to leave the Phoenix Lake.

“Please hold on for a moment.” Zhang Ruochen said.

The woman in purple turned around and cast her gaze on Zhang Ruochen as she said. “What is it?”

“If you wouldn’t mind me asking, how did you get resurrected? And what’s the situation in the Yinyang Sea now?”

Zhang Ruochen asked with a solemn expression.

Hearing this, a terrifying killing intent appeared in the woman’s eyes, as she spat out two cold words. “No comment.”

Without waiting for Zhang Ruochen to say anything else, she turned around and left. Her figure flickered and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye.

“This woman is no pushover. You old drunkard, you sure have balls of steel, to dare steal things from a powerhouse of this level.” Gu Songzi said in a speechless tone.

The Drunkard wore a painful expression on his face as he said angrily. “How would I know that a dead body can come back alive. My Three Leaf Nine Lives Flower. Zhang Ruochen, aren’t you like super powerful? Why are you afraid of that woman?”

He was indeed not her match, but with Zhang Ruochen’s strength, why would he give in like that?

“It’s not that I’m afraid! This woman should’ve been dead since the Middle Ages, for her to suddenly come back alive, and then to think of what happened in the Yinyang Sea back then, don’t you think there’s something even more to this? I’m afraid that there might be a shocking change that had happened in the Yinyang Sea.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were grim, and somewhat suspected that the woman in purple was a survivor of Kunlun Realm, and it was very likely that she was not dead at all, but instead fell into a strange state that was similar to suspended animation.

It seems like he needed pay The Yinyang Sea a visit.

The Drunkard’s pupils could not help but shrink as he gasped. Hearing what Zhang Ruochen had said, the secrets hidden inside the Yinyang Sea must be very terrifying.
