Chapter 1350: Disordered Time and s.p.a.ce
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Deep within Xianji Mountain was a sealed zone. It was filled with chaotic rules of the world, including disorderly time and s.p.a.ce.
Zhang Ruochen was clearly going forward, but he kept retreating uncontrollably.
“Reversed s.p.a.ce.”
Zhang Ruochen touched his chin and stopped. He walked in a different direction.
Thud!
He’d only taken one step and he suddenly lost balance dramatically. He fell into a spatial bubble.
Bolts of lightning flashed through the spatial bubble. They were so dense and countless. It was like a mini thunder world and was very dangerous.
Next, Zhang Ruochen encountered some other strange s.p.a.ces. Thankfully, he was the Time and s.p.a.ce Descendant and a bit familiar with these s.p.a.ces, so he could deal with them calmly.
If it were any other Saint, they would probably get lost here.
Exactly what kind of place is Xianji Mountain? The spatial structure changes so much and is so unstable. Could it be the bridge between the Kunlun’s Field and another world?
Zhang Ruochen stopped walking. He didn’t continue to venture on. He felt that there was a greater danger up ahead.
With his current cultivation, it was already a bit difficult to reach this point. If he continued, he’d probably be unable to return to Kunlun’s Field.
Zhang Ruochen backtracked. He walked out of the chaotic s.p.a.ce and reappeared in Xianji Mountain.
The rules of s.p.a.ce and time are very active. This is a nice place for cultivation, but it’s too dangerous. If I run into Death Race cultivators, it will be troublesome.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t stay here for long. He returned to Yuan Lake.
Princess White Li stood at the edge of Wuyuan Island. She floated on a green seaweed as if she weighed nothing. Her long white cat tail moved softly, creating ripples in the water.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen walk across the water, she asked, “Any discoveries?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head lightly. “I can’t go in at all. It seems to be a path leading to another world, but it’s isolated by the chaotic time and s.p.a.ce. I discovered dozens of spatial bubbles. Each one is a small world filled with danger. What about you? How is the progress? Did they get any saintly medicine yet?”
“That rabbit picked 42 saintly medicines,” Princess White Li said. “The Demon Ape picked 42.”
“That fast?”
Zhang Ruochen was shocked. The divine medicine garden was filled with danger. There was also the Supreme Saint formation guarding the saintly medicines. Even picking one would take a lot of effort.
Zhang Ruochen had only spent half a day deep within Xianji Mountain.
How did they pick so much medicine in half a day?
Princess White Li was annoyed. Disdain in her eyes, she said, “They spent more than half a month and only picked that bit of medicine. And you think it’s fast?”
“It’s already been more than half a month?” Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed. After thinking carefully, he murmured to himself, “No wonder the flow of time felt strange.”
Princess White Li didn’t ask what Zhang Ruochen had encountered. Her snow-white ears twitched and she looked toward the forest. “They’re back!”
Guoguo and the Demon Ape rushed out of the forest. Guoguo carried a saintly flower with four petals. They were red, blue, white, and green and shone with light. They were like four saintly clouds.
The Demon Ape held a blade of silver saintly gra.s.s. The roots were very thick and shone with specks of silver light.
The two beasts were both injured. Some places were burnt, some had scarred over, and other places were still bleeding. It was clear that they’d suffered inside the divine medicine garden.
“Lord Chen, you’re finally back. That cat abused us. She forced us to pick medicine in the garden and hit us if we didn’t go. Half of my injuries are because of her.”
Guoguo threw down the saintly medicine and latched onto Zhang Ruochen’s leg, sobbing pitifully.
Princess White Li just scoffed. Without speaking, her eyes moved toward the sparkling lake. She seemed to have discovered something.
The Demon Ape shrunk to only three meters tall. It limped over to Zhang Ruochen and put on a pleading expression. “Master, we’ve already picked more than half of the saintly medicine in the garden. The rest is in the heart of the Supreme Saint formation. We can’t get close at all. If you keep having us go, we’ll most likely die in there.”
Guoguo knew that Zhang Ruochen was the mastermind and also knew the reason, so it said, “Lord Chen, we were wrong. We won’t ever dare to eat saintly medicines again! Never!”
“Master,” the Demon Ape followed. “With my current cultivation, I can attack a large clan or the saint pavilion. I can rob them and make up for the saintly and spiritual medicine I stole.”
“I’ll go rob them too,” Guoguo said.
Zhang Ruochen chuckled. “Whatever! I’ll just forgive you two this time. You don’t have to go rob other clans of their saintly medicines. In the next few days, let’s stay low.”
Hearing that Zhang Ruochen would move on now, Guoguo and the Demon Ape let out relieved breaths. They nodded firmly. “Lord Chen, whatever you say.”
Princess White Li was staring somewhere on Yuan Lake. “Zhang Ruochen, someone is spying on us. They’re not weak either.”
Zhang Ruochen had already perceived that. He nodded and said, “He’s well-hidden and collected his aura to the max. Unfortunately, he had some emotions when I appeared. He must be a strong figure who knows me.”
Hearing Princess White Li’s conversation with Zhang Ruochen, Guoguo was filled with indignation. It stood by the water and yelled, “Who is it? Who dares to spy on Princess White Li? You are so shameless and perverted! Get out of there and take a hit from me, your Rabbit Lord!”
Princess White Li was embarra.s.sed. Spying? How come it sounded weird when it came out of the rabbit’s mouth?Visit on our vipnovel.com
Slight Holy Qi waves appeared on the lake’s surface. The person hiding knew that he’d been discovered by Zhang Ruochen’s group, so he was fleeing quickly.
“Fool, where are you going?”
A dragon roar came out of Guoguo’s mouth. It transformed into a demonic dragon and rushed out from the safe zone. It caught up to the semi-transparent fleeing figure and reached out its hundred-meters-long dragon claw.
Kaboom!
The semi-transparent figure let out a m.u.f.fled grunt. He blocked the hit, but his body was sent flying and crashed into a mountain in the near distance.
His body appeared fully. Surprisingly, it was Zhao Qilin, the leader of the Night Emissaries of the Moon-Wors.h.i.+p Demonic Sect.
Zhao Qilin’s cultivation was in the Heaven Pa.s.s Realm. He was a top figure but had been sent flying by a claw. How could he not be surprised?
“Fool, if you dare to spy on Princess White Li, you must pay for it.”
Guoguo rushed over again. It struck with a dragon claw, pressing down on Zhao Qilin’s head. Half of his body was sent underground.
Zhao Qilin was both furious and annoyed. He was the leader of the Night Emissaries, but he was being called a fool by a savage beast. How could he not be furious?
And…spying?
As a Saint, how could he be so perverted?
However, that savage beast’s cultivation was terrifying. It suppressed and immobilized Zhao Qilin. His bones felt like they were about to fall apart.
Zhao Qilin pushed upward with both hands, fending off the dragon claws. “Zhang Ruochen,” he said hurriedly, “we can talk…”
“Yes, we can talk, but I have some questions for you.” Zhang Ruochen walked over to Zhao Qilin’s side. “Where is Ye Xiaoxiang, lord of the Night Palace, and Xiao Mie, lord of the Zhenw.a.n.g Palace?”
“Will you let me go if I tell you?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “No. How can one question save your life? You must answer at least three of my questions.”
“Do your words count?” Zhao Qilin asked.
“I’ll spare your life if you answer honestly. How about that?”
“Okay,” Zhao Qilin answered. “The two palace lords received a message from the High Priest to leave Xianji Mountain immediately. I don’t know where they went.”
Half a month ago, Xianji Mountain had indeed been a place of death. It was the center of the storm. Perhaps the High Priest had told Ye Xiaoxiang and Xiao Mie to leave for safety reasons.
Zhang Ruochen chuckled. “Then why are you still in Xianji Mountain?”
“The two lords told me to stay here and investigate Feng Zuisheng and Lord Ku’s tracks. I must notify them as soon as I find anything.”
Hearing this, the worry in Zhang Ruochen’s heart finally lifted. Those two old men really did escape death.
Zhao Qilin stared hard at Zhang Ruochen. “What is your third question?”
“There is no third question,” Zhang Ruochen said.
“You…” Zhao Qilin knew that he’d been fooled and instantly shook with anger.
Zhang Ruochen turned around and started walking toward the distance. “Make it quick for him,” he said to Guoguo. “Bury him after he dies and put up a stone tablet.”
“Okay.”
Guoguo unleashed all its power. Demonic fog poured out of its dragon claws and covered Zhao Qilin entirely. Guoguo forced it into his body to suppress his Holy Qi and prevent him from activating his saintly source.
In the fog, Zhao Qilin screamed, “Zhang Ruochen… Wait! There’s something else… Something very important…about your mother…”
Zhang Ruochen stopped abruptly. He hit some Holy Qi out, dispersing the demonic fog.
Whoos.h.!.+
His body flashed and Zhang Ruochen appeared before Zhao Qilin. He grabbed Zhao Qilin’s collar and lifted him up from the ground. Raising him into the air, Zhang Ruochen said coldly, “What did you just say?”
“You must promise to spare me before I tell you,” Zhao Qilin said.
Zhang Ruochen tossed him onto the ground with a thud. “Speak! I’ll take it as your third question.”
Zhao Qilin lay on the ground and panted heavily. When his breathing steadied, he finally said, “Around a month ago, news that your meridians were disabled spread through the five human regions. Some people had their eyes on your treasures, so they searched for your trace. They wanted to kill you. Some people even wanted to kidnap your mother to force you to appear.”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes turned even colder. It was tragic. No matter how much he did for the human race, there were still greedy people who would take advantage of his troubles and make things worse.
These people were even more detestable than the Immortal Vampires.
He’d planned on disappearing for a while to cultivate without distractions. However, Zhang Ruochen’s heart couldn’t stay calm now. He just wanted to hurry over to the Central Empire City.
Clenching his fists, Zhang Ruochen said, “Tell me, who are they?”
