God Emperor

King Yao Jue is a fanatic who studies books. He built a cave specifically to display books. When he heard that Zhang Ruochen wanted to read books, he was like meeting a close friend, so he enthusiastically took him to the cave of Shuxiangyuan. .

"Important secret scrolls, as well as techniques and sacred techniques that cannot be taught to others, are all sealed in the formation. Other books can be read at will by my little brother."

King Yao Jue smiled and ordered, and then left in a hurry because he still had important matters, leaving Yan Zi to stay in the cave to accompany Zhang Ruochen.

The Shuxiangyuan Cave is about the same size as the "Yan Palace Cave" that Zhang Ruochen borrowed, with a diameter of a hundred miles. Hundreds of large and small palaces and pavilions have been built, and it is unknown how many thousands of books have been collected.

Zhang Ruochen didn't want outsiders to know what books he had read, so he asked Yanzi to wait for him outside the cave.

"Wanjie Bookstore."

Zhang Ruochen raised his head and looked at the plaque of an ancient palace, then stepped in. A sea of ​​books appeared in front of him, and the faint fragrance of books poured into his nose.

In the ancient palace, there are small sandalwood signs one foot long, with the names of each big world written on them.

"Western Buddha Realm."

"Heavenly Realm."

"Soul Realm."

"Raya Realm."

"Guanghan Realm."

…

Not only the more than 8,000 subordinate mortal realms in the heavenly world, but also the great worlds that have perished have their own bookshelves, storing a large number of books in various categories.

"not good."

Zhang Ruochen's expression suddenly changed as he recalled King Yao Jue's strange behavior that day in the holy martial arts field.

Obviously, King Yao Jue was studying the origins of the treasures sold by Zhang Ruochen. Based on his experience, the origins of those treasures might not be hidden from his eyes.

If you can tell the origin of those treasures, is it difficult to guess Zhang Ruochen's identity?

Zhang Ruochen suddenly felt that his hands and feet were cold, and he felt a strong sense of crisis.

I still underestimate those old monsters who have lived for thousands of years. They have lived too long, and their experience and knowledge are not comparable to those of young people like him. If you pick up an item at random, you can probably tell its origin.

"If they wanted to harm me, they would have already taken action. They wouldn't wait until now and take no action. Qian Ruijie should not be part of the shady conspiracy."

Zhang Ruochen's eyes kept changing. He calmed himself down first, tried to stay calm, and said secretly: "As long as Qianrui Realm has nothing to do with the shady world, you should not dare to touch me easily. The monk who ranks first in the "Holy Merit List" is not Ordinary saints will definitely bring out the gods once something happens."

When his mind completely calmed down, Zhang Ruochen no longer had any worries and released his mental power, turning into thousands of mental tentacles to search for books related to "The River of Time" and "Time and Space Agate".

Not long after, Zhang Ruochen found the book he wanted to read on a bookshelf dedicated to recording time and space.

These books are naturally not a treasure book for cultivating time and space, but some secrets related to time and space.

With Zhang Ruochen's current mental strength, he could read the entire book in an instant and have a photographic memory, keeping all the useful information firmly in his mind.

"The River of Time is a legendary river. You can reach the future by going down the river, and you can reach the past by going up the river."

"Only through the Gate of Time can you see the River of Time. No monk knows exactly where the Gate of Time is, but some people speculate that the Gate of Time is in the Temple of Time, because you can buy the River of Time in the holy store opened in the Temple of Time. "

Zhang Ruochen was quite shocked. There was actually a long river of time, and he could cross the river to travel to the past and the future. This was completely unimaginable!

However, the records about the long river of time are also the author's guesses.

According to the book, no monk has personally admitted that he has seen the river of time, and everything is just a legend. Even the water of the River of Time sold by the Temple of Time has not been proven to be really taken from the River of Time.

Next, Zhang Ruochen was quite excited to see the record about time and space agate.

It is said that the origin of space-time agate is an ancient place in the universe called "Haishi Xingwu". It is mysterious and full of dangers. There once was a god who controlled time and fell there.

There is the fault zone between time and space, which is said to be the origin of the universe.

Not only the space-time agate, but also the space-time crystal, which can only be found in the Sea Stone Star dock. Every year, a large number of creatures go there to search for treasures. Any time-space ore they find is a huge fortune.

"If you have the chance, you must go to Haishi Star Station."

As a space-time monk, Zhang Ruochen also yearned for that mysterious ancient place in the universe.

In the next three days, Zhang Ruochen started a crazy reading mode to supplement his knowledge and increase his understanding of the heavenly world and the major subordinate mortal worlds. He was able to read thousands of books every day.

Originally, Zhang Ruochen wanted to find books related to "The Secret of Truth", but unfortunately he found nothing.

"If we look at the files from a hundred thousand years ago, we may be able to understand why the Kunlun Realm encountered disaster. Moreover, what is the shady story that the Moon God mentioned?"

Zhang Ruochen released his spiritual tentacles and searched for related books. However, after searching for half an hour, he couldn't find any.

There are quite a few books related to the Kunlun Realm, but there is no record of what happened in the Kunlun Realm a hundred thousand years ago.

It seems that the really important books are not collected by King Yao Jue at all, or... they are all banned in the formation, and ordinary monks cannot read them.

Zhang Ruochen came to the bookshelf marked "Kunlun Realm" and took out one of the books.

The book records some of the top figures who fell in the Kunlun world a hundred thousand years ago. It is said that each of them has a great reputation in the heavenly world.

"Saint Monk Xumi, Dragon Lord Jiwang, God of Death Island Lord, Bi Luokong City, Ten Tribulations Wen Tianjun..."

Those names in the book can actually be listed with Holy Monk Xumi. They must be quite powerful beings. Even if they are not as good as Holy Monk Xumi, they are probably not much weaker.

Zhang Ruochen felt extremely confused in his heart. Since those powerful figures were once giants in the Kunlun world, why, as a native human monk in the Kunlun world, had he never heard of their names and legends?

Is it because I am ignorant? Or is there a certain force that deliberately erases information about these giants, making them disappear from the history books and diluting their influence?

While Zhang Ruochen was deep in thought, out of the corner of his eye, he could not help but see a pair of eyes on the opposite side of the book, staring at him.

You know, although Zhang Ruochen was meditating just now, he still used part of his mental energy to secretly be on guard. How could an ordinary monk come so close to him without him noticing at all?

The opponent's mental power is quite strong and should be higher than him.

Zhang Ruochen was indeed quite surprised, but when he saw those eyes clearly, the shock in his heart became even stronger. A pair of extremely beautiful eyes, as clear as two divine pools. The eyelashes are long and curled. They are obviously neither seductive nor charming, without any fireworks, but they possess the magic power to enchant the soul.

Even with Zhang Ruochen's fifty-fifth level mental power, he was lost for a moment.

When he recovered again, the eyes behind the bookshelf had disappeared. Zhang Ruochen immediately walked around the bookshelf and chased after him, but he didn't see anyone.

"Did you see a ghost? No, even the Ghost King is probably not as fast as me."

Zhang Ruochen shook his head, returned to the bookshelf just now, sniffed gently, and immediately smelled an extremely charming floral fragrance. The fragrance is very special. It is obviously the fragrance of flowers, but I can't tell which kind of flower it is. It seems like hundreds of fragrances are blended together.

"The traces of people disappear, but the fragrance remains."

To be sure, it was not his hallucination just now. Someone had indeed been reading opposite him, but he was not aware of it.

Zhang Ruochen came to where the owner of the eyes was standing, searched carefully, then took down a book from the bookshelf, and sniffed it gently: "The scent is stronger than other books. The book she read just now should be This is it.”

Zhang Ruochen was startled again when he saw the cover of the book.

On the cover, there are four words written - "The sacred tree that connects the sky".

Almost all the books on this bookshelf are related to the Kunlun Realm. It does not seem strange to find a book related to the "Connecting Divine Tree".

The strange thing is, why was that person here reading "Jietian Shenmu"?

With strong curiosity, Zhang Ruochen opened the book.

"The Heaven-Connecting Sacred Tree was born together with the Kunlun Realm. It is a creature that has cultivated the way of life to the highest level. It is also the creature that has lived the longest on record."

Just the first sentence at the beginning made Zhang Ruochen hold his breath and scroll down quickly.

At the end of the book, Zhang Ruochen saw another important piece of information: "Phoenix practices with the Jietian Divine Tree and creates its own "Nine Transformations of Life and Death", which can lead to Nirvana and immortality."

Zhang Ruochen slammed the book shut and immediately thought of "Little Black". Didn't it claim to be a phoenix?

"Xiao Hei is a disciple of Jie Tian Shen Mu? It doesn't seem like it. With Xiao Hei's character, he doesn't seem like a creature that can create a peerless skill. Maybe the phoenix who received the true teaching of Jie Tian Shen Mu is Xiao Hei’s ancestor.”

However, Zhang Ruochen soon had another doubt, "Since the "Nine Transformations of Life and Death Technique" was created by the Phoenix, why did it appear in the palace of the Shengming Central Empire?"

"Furthermore, since Xiao Hei knows that I passed on the "Nine Revolutions of Life and Death" to A Le, why does it always pretend to know nothing? As a Phoenix, it is impossible for Xiao Hei not to know the "Nine Transformations of Life and Death" 》.

Zhang Ruochen always felt that what Xiao Hei said before could not be believed at all, and he must have hidden a lot of things from him.

After leaving the Cave of the Scholar Garden, Zhang Ruochen's thoughts were very confused. Sometimes he was thinking about some secrets in the Kunlun world, sometimes he was wondering whether to buy the time and space agate and the water in the long river of time first, and sometimes the beautiful pair of shoes on the opposite side of the bookshelf appeared in his mind. s eyes.

I don't know how much time passed before Zhang Ruochen suppressed all his thoughts and said: "Wait until Xiao Hei comes to the Realm of Truth, and then ask him slowly. First, buy the time and space agate and the water in the river of time. You must strengthen your strength. Some."

Zhang Ruochen's emotions were uncontrollable, and he laughed a few times before taking a step out of the Baihua Palace.

"Wow——"

Chang Feng, one of the seven powerful elders of Baihua Palace, appeared outside the gate of Baihua Palace like a white-clothed scribe and a ghost. He looked towards the direction Zhang Ruochen left and murmured to himself: "This boy Where are you going? Follow us and we might be able to confirm his identity. Shang Ziyan has offered a very high price for this news. I hope you are really Zhang Ruochen."
