#469 - A branch
Zhang Chen felt that Xie Lingyun should remove that 'ma' character!
This was Bai Lu, the head of the Four Great Disciples of Wuzhuang Temple in the past. Back then, Bai Lu was already at the twelfth level. Now, after so many years, how much has Bai Lu's cultivation increased?
Zhang Chen looked at Bai Lu opposite him, his whole body tense as if facing a formidable enemy. The Golden Dragon Scissors appeared in his hand, hidden in his sleeve.
Xie Lingyun was also panicking at this moment, because she had never seen Zhang Chen so nervous before. You must know that Zhang Chen had never shown such a tense state when facing Zhang Shicheng.
"I remember you!"
Just as Zhang Chen and Xie Lingyun were muttering, Bai Lu seemed to recall something, staring at Zhang Chen with a murderous look in her eyes. As soon as she said these words, before she could make any further movements, her body suddenly shattered, turning into dust and disappearing into the world.
"Dead?" Zhang Chen looked at the other party's inexplicably shattered body, his eyes full of astonishment, unable to understand why the other party would inexplicably appear here, and then inexplicably die.
"Indeed, she is dead, the kind where her soul is scattered, leaving no trace at all," Xie Lingyun nodded in agreement from the side.
Zhang Chen fell silent upon hearing this. He couldn't understand why Bai Lu would appear here. Could it be that this place had some connection with Wuzhuang Temple? After the heavenly punishment of Wuzhuang Temple ended in the past, what exactly happened?
Zhang Chen looked at the ruins of Wuzhuang Temple, standing in place and observing for a long time, before he suddenly realized: "Isn't this the Taoist temple of Wuzhuang Temple? It's just because it was shattered that I didn't recognize it immediately. But looking closely at its layout and orientation, it's exactly the same as the original Wuzhuang Temple."
He had lived in Wuzhuang Temple for more than ten years, how could he not recognize Wuzhuang Temple?
"But what did Wuzhuang Temple suffer in the past, that it has fallen to such a state?" Zhang Chen's eyelids twitched wildly as he looked at the ruins where Bai Lu crawled out. He remembered that there seemed to be a damaged underground secret room under these ruins.
However, Zhang Chen was not in a hurry to explore. For him, it was most important to first explore the source of the green light, and to see the flame suspended on the stone platform.
Zhang Chen looked at the high platform and said to Xie Lingyun, "Follow me!"
The two of them, protected by the Heavenly Treasure Mirror, walked towards the high platform. At this time, Zhang Chen also recognized the origin of the high platform. The high platform was the cliff where the Nine Curves Yellow River Great Array of Wuzhuang Temple was located in the past, and it was also the place where he trapped and killed the Longevity Ancestor.
To solve the mysteries left over from the ancient times, one must first start from the traces left in the ruins.
Zhang Chen led Xie Lingyun all the way to the high platform. After seeing the scene in front of him clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned: "That is?"
On the high platform, there was a twig about a meter high. The green light was bursting out from the twig. Above the twig, a black fragment the size of a grain of rice was suspended, and the fragment emitted a bright light, like a small sun, illuminating the entire underground world.
"That twig…" Zhang Chen looked at the twig and saw that it was breathing in the energy emitted from the fragment above to complete photosynthesis, and that the small fragment seemed to have infinite divine power, constantly bursting out with earth-shattering power.
The small sun contained an indescribable domineering power, which seemed to be able to burn people's internal organs and souls to ashes. Even at a distance of hundreds of meters, it had already forced people to stop.
"What a domineering power, it seems to have ignited my internal organs, but fortunately I have the Fire Aversion Pearl. No matter how powerful the light is, it can't do anything to my Fire Aversion Pearl." Zhang Chen took out the Fire Aversion Pearl, and sure enough, all the heat was blocked outside the Fire Aversion Pearl. Then Zhang Chen and Xie Lingyun slowly stepped forward and finally stopped ten meters away.
"This little tree is very evil," Xie Lingyun's eyes fell on the little tree, her eyes full of exploratory interest.
"This is not a small tree, it's just a twig," Zhang Chen replied.
"A twig?" Xie Lingyun's eyes were full of disbelief. A twig had such incredible power. If the entire tree was complete, what incredible divine power would it possess?
Zhang Chen looked up and down at the twig, and the huge knowledge base in his brain began to churn. The knowledge he had obtained from Wuzhuang Temple in the past finally came in handy:
"This is a twig of the Tongtian Jianmu!"
"What is Tongtian Jianmu?" Xie Lingyun had never heard of the name Tongtian Jianmu.
Zhang Chen said: "Tongtian Jianmu is also known as the World Tree. It can connect heaven and earth, absorb chaotic energy and transform it into innate vitality. It is the king of trees."
Xie Lingyun's eyes lit up: "In that case, aren't we making a fortune?"
Zhang Chen nodded: "I just don't know if this twig has taken root and sprouted."
However, Zhang Chen had an idea in his mind. He had a Ascension Pool. He wondered if he could transplant the twig of this innate Jianmu by relying on the liquid born in the Ascension Pool.
Zhang Chen moved his gaze away from the twig of the Tongtian Jianmu and looked at the small sun suspended above the Jianmu twig. At this time, the small sun burst out with infinite light, illuminating the entire underground world. Although the light spot was small, it made people afraid to look directly at it. Zhang Chen opened his Dharma Eye, and the golden light in his eyes was directly broken, and Zhang Chen's cornea was directly burned through. Fortunately, Zhang Chen's Blood Control Technique had reached the realm of flesh and blood regeneration. At this time, his flesh and blood power vibrated rapidly, and it was quickly repaired in just a few breaths.
Zhang Chen repaired his retina, his eyes full of lingering fear: "My True God Golden Light has actually met its nemesis again, it's unbelievable. Usually, only my True God Golden Light restrains others, when did it become my turn for my True God Golden Light to be broken?"
Zhang Chen changed his thinking. The Dharma Eye of the True God Golden Light was not working, so he directly mobilized the Devouring Eye. As he opened the Devouring Eye, the golden light was no longer dazzling. In his Devouring Eye, the fragment turned into a ball of fire. In the fire, there seemed to be a small bird flying back and forth. Between the flapping of the small bird's wings, rays of fire scattered out, forming the source of light that illuminated the entire underground world.
However, even Zhang Chen could not see the origin of the light spot for a while, so he could only withdraw his Dharma Eye and think about the opportunity to collect the treasure.
"Zhang Chen, I want that tree seedling, and I want that light spot," At this moment, Xie Lingyun's urgent voice sounded in Zhang Chen's ears, her voice filled with suppressed excitement, and her eyes were full of fanaticism.
"Did Sister recognize the origin of that light spot?" Zhang Chen looked at Xie Lingyun curiously.
"Do you know that when a Divine Soul Dao cultivator steps into the Yang God realm from the Yin God, they need to complete the pure Yang transformation?" Xie Lingyun said.
Zhang Chen nodded: "I have heard of it."
"If the Yin God wants to transform into pure Yang, there are two ways. The first is for the Yin God to enter the clouds and undergo the carving and washing of thunder and lightning, and finally complete the transformation, and a wisp of pure Yang energy is born," Xie Lingyun said: "However, this method is the most dangerous. If the heavenly thunder that is attracted is too strong, the result will be the scattering of the soul. The second method is to find pure Yang objects and incorporate them into one's soul, imperceptibly causing one's soul to undergo transformation."
"The thing in front of us is a meteorite that fell from the sun. It contains pure Yang energy. If I can refine it into my Yin God, it will be just around the corner to transform into a pure Yang real person. What else in this world contains pure Yang energy that is purer than the pure Yang energy in the sun?" Xie Lingyun's voice was full of fanaticism.
Zhang Chen glanced at the light spot upon hearing this. No wonder it could burst out with immeasurable light, and even break through the True God Golden Light and burn his retina. It turned out that this was the reason.
"It's okay for me to give this thing to Sister, but this object contains a powerful scorching power. Are you sure you can subdue it?" Zhang Chen said.
That was the power of the sun, even if it was just a little bit, it could burn mountains and boil seas.
A hint of curiosity appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes. He didn't know what Xie Lingyun's confidence was, that she could actually say that she could collect the sun fragments.
Xie Lingyun smiled upon hearing this: "This thing is destined to be with me. If I had encountered the sun fragments before Zhang Shicheng's fall, I might have really only been able to watch helplessly, but after Zhang Shicheng's fall, I obtained a bit of Zhang Shicheng's Dragon Ball. After I refined the Dragon Ball, the transformation of my Yin God has reached a critical point. Coupled with a certain secret technique I obtained in the past, I can try to collect this thing. However, I still need to borrow your Fire Aversion Pearl. Your Fire Aversion Pearl is my confidence in refining this thing."
Zhang Chen stepped back upon hearing this, giving Xie Lingyun the main position: "Sister, go ahead and do it, but you still need to be careful and cautious, and don't let the sun fragments burn your soul to ashes."
Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Xie Lingyun nodded solemnly: "I know."
She knew the ferocity of the sun's true fire. Once her soul was ignited by the sun's true fire, even the Heavenly King Lao Tzu would not be able to save her.
Zhang Chen handed the Fire Aversion Pearl in his hand to Xie Lingyun, and saw Xie Lingyun take the Fire Aversion Pearl, her eyes looking at the meteorite in front of her, and walking forward with a firm face.
Zhang Chen, protected by the Heavenly Treasure Mirror, followed closely behind Xie Lingyun, blocking the vitality plunder of the Jianmu twig for her.
After approaching ten meters from the meteorite, Xie Lingyun suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhang Chen: "I still have something to tell you in advance. If I die under the burning of the sun's true fire, you go and tell my father to treat you like his own son. How he treats me, he should treat you the same. This can be considered as me owing you a favor."
As she spoke, Xie Lingyun tore off a piece of her clothes, then took out the dagger from her waist, cut her finger, and quickly wrote a document on the clothes. After drying it with the sun's flames, she handed the document to Zhang Chen: "This thing is a voucher, you still need to keep it carefully, and you must not lose it."
Zhang Chen was stunned upon hearing this, staring blankly at the document Xie Lingyun sent over. He knew too well the weight of this document.
Xie Lingyun was really kind to him, and it was not in vain for him to give to Xie Lingyun.
"What are you doing standing there dumbfounded, take it!" Xie Lingyun rolled her eyes at Zhang Chen when she saw Zhang Chen was stunned.
