“Fat cat, what …… are you doing?”
Ao Xin Yan clenched her teeth and said coldly.
Xiao Hei refined a turquoise-coloured spirit medicine into a ball of medicinal liquid the size of a thumbnail and applied it to the wound, laughing: “Of course it’s healing your wounds, if it wasn’t for the fact that this emperor found a thousand year old green Bodhi grass in the Wood Essence Ruins Realm, and used it on your body, do you think that, you would still be able to live?”
“Why don’t you let me die?”Ao Xin Yan said.
Little Black was instantly a little upset and said, “This Emperor never eats people and rarely saves them, it’s because he’s afraid of meeting people like you. It’s not easy for this Emperor to be kind and save your life, but you’re actually thinking of dying?”
Ao Xin Yan’s eyes flashed with a look of despair as she said, “My martial body, it’s already shattered, even if my injuries are healed, I’m still an invalid, what’s the point of living?”
“Who told you that you will definitely become an invalid?”Xiao Hei rolled his eyes.
Ao Xin Yan was like a drowning person who grabbed a life-saving straw, hope rekindled in her heart, saying, “You can help me recover from my injuries?”
“Of course, you don’t look at what kind of existence this Emperor is? However, I also need to borrow that dragon pearl of Zhang Ruochen’s for a while, using the dragon pearl, to raise a half-dragon’s body, and maybe even raise a true dragon.”Little Black giggled.
“Ta-da!”
Outside the tree cave, light footsteps sounded.
Immediately after, a woman’s voice came.
“A cat that is not only able to set up formations, but can also refine medicines to heal wounds, is truly a strange species. How about, you follow me in the future?”
“Someone is catching up so soon?”
Xiao Hei shook its head, feeling bad luck, and wrapped up the robe on Ao Xin Yan’s body, after which, it walked out of the tree cave with unhurried and unhurried steps.
In the air, a faint fragrance was emitted.
Not far away, a wonderful woman with a slender red veil draped over her body was sitting on top of an extremely thin branch as if she was weightless. She draped a pair of slender jade. legs, staring smilingly at the black cat that walked out from the tree hole.
This woman was none other than the Black Market One Piece Hall’s Red Desire Star Envoy.
Little Black stared towards her and said, “Girl, how did you find your way here?”
“Girl?”
Red Desire Star Envoy’s pair of slender eyebrows, slightly frowned, then laughed, “A little cat, also dares to call me a maiden, huh, it’s a bit of a character, people are really liking you more and more!”
Little Black snorted coldly, “If you want **** to find Zhang Ruochen, this emperor is not interested in you.”
“Zhang Ruochen and Pei Ji are still fighting to the death, our Black Market One Piece Hall’s experts, have already rushed over, when they fight to the death, that’s the time to clean up the two of them in one fell swoop.”The Red Desire Star Envoy laughed.
In fact, earlier, the people from the Black Market One Piece Hall had been hiding in the shadows, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight, watching from afar as the people from the three Great Sage Sect Valves besieged Zhang Ruochen and Ao Xinyan.
When Zhang Ruochen and Pei Ji exchanged blows, the Orange Moon Star Envoy led the eighteen Liuli Knights to follow them, that is, they waited for Zhang Ruochen and Pei Ji to lose both of them before they planned to strike.
As for the Red Lust Star Envoy, she however followed Little Black and Ao Xin Yan closely and chased them all the way here.
The Red Lust Star Envoy smiled charmingly, “Little Cat, tell me, what exactly is Zhang Ruochen doing in the Wood Essence Market Realm? This girl has a Hundred Beasts Star Pill here, so I might be able to reward you.”
Saying that, the Red Desire Star Envoy took out a rice grain sized Beast Pill from the jade belt around her waist and pinched it between her two fingers.
The sixth grade elixir, the Hundred Beast Star Pill, could help savage beasts improve their physique and even have a chance to upgrade their grade. Therefore, a Hundred Beast Star Pill was considered quite a precious treasure.
Even from a distance of more than ten feet, one could smell a strong fragrance of the elixir coming from it.
Xiao Hei didn’t even look at the Hundred Beasts Star Dan and lazily said, “Zhang Ruochen came to the Wood Essence Market Realm, naturally, he has important things to do.”
“What important matters?”
The Red Desire Star Envoy’s eyes lit up as he hurriedly asked.
“You think I would tell you?”Little Black rolled his eyes.
“Hmph!”
The Red Desire Star Envoy’s lips hooked and smiled as she stretched out a slender jade hand, five long, thin, soft fingers that quickly changed, forming countless hand shadows.
With a clattering sound, at the tip of the fingers, strands of pink light flew out.
A thread of light that was faintly visible, continuously spread out, travelling through the forest in a circle of tens of feet, intertwining into a net. If one did not look closely, one would not be able to see these filaments at all.
Little Black rolled his eyes once again and said, “Little girl, your illusion art can’t even help Zhang Ruochen, but you still want to use it against this Emperor?”
“Swish!”
Xiao Hei’s eyes turned cold, and with a tuck of its tail, it rushed out, transforming into a rapid black shadow that rushed in front of the Red Desire Star Envoy in a flash of lightning.
It stretched out a sharp claw wrapped in electric light and grabbed towards the Red Lust Star Envoy’s neck.
“Giggle!”
Little Black’s claw, rubbing against the air, left behind three one-metre long claw marks of electric light.
Startled, the Red Lust Star Envoy immediately performed his body technique, leaping up from the tree branch, turning into a red ghostly shadow, and landing on the ground several feet away.
With a piercing sound, Little Black’s claws, clawed down a layer of red veil from the Red Desire Star Envoy’s body. The powerful electric energy from the claws tore the red veil into pieces, turning it into black smoke and dust.
However, the Red Desire Star Envoy who was standing on the ground, her body, however, was still wrapped in a layer of red veil, covering her delicate and peerless body, intact. She said in a cold voice, “So powerful, a cat that can also block my illusion.”
The Red Desire Star Envoy flicked her sleeves, and with her feet off the ground, she flew up and rushed towards the inside of the tree hole.
“Not good, she’s going to go after that one Half-Dragon Body.”Xiao Hei immediately chased after her.
Ao Xin Yan’s half-dragon body was quite rare, and Xiao Hei was still searching for a way to let her refine into a true dragon body, so naturally he couldn’t let the Red Desire Star Envoy kill her now.
Red Lust Star Envoy held Ao Xin Yan, rushed out of the tree hole, and hurriedly swept into the distance, leaving behind a fragrant wind.
“Little girl, what the hell are you doing?”
Xiao Hei chased after the Red Desire Star Envoy, saying with some annoyance.
The Red Desire Star Envoy laughed, “Hasn’t Zhang Ruochen already saved her twice, so of course I’m going to take her away and see if Zhang Ruochen will come to save her a third time.”
Little Black and the Red Lust Star Envoy, one after the other, transformed into two shadows and flashed quickly inside the jungle, just like ghosts.
In the distance, Pei Ji stood on the edge of a cliff, his pupils turning blood red as he watched Little Black and the Red Lust Star Envoy in a hurry to chase after them a hundred miles away, and muttered to himself, “The Red Lust Star Envoy actually took away Ao Xin Yan, that’s fine, then let the people from the Black Market’s Hall of One Piece lure Zhang Ruochen out first. Let them fight to the death first, and then I’ll come out to clean up the mess.”
Pei Ji knew in his heart that with his strength, he was able to defeat Zhang Ruochen, however, he could not kill him.
Therefore, he was now holding the same idea as the people from the Black Market One Piece Hall. That is, let the other party deal with Zhang Ruochen first, while he himself stood in the shadows, reaping the benefits.
……
…………
Six days had passed in the inner space of the Space-Time Crystal Stone.
Zhang Ruochen sat in the centre of the space, completely wrapped in the Green Void True Qi, which was getting denser and denser, so dense that it looked like it was turning into liquid, and then from liquid to solid.
At a glance, Zhang Ruochen looked like he was frozen in a spherical piece of jasper, his body slowly rotating.
He inhaled deeply, and a loud sound resounded within his body, as if he had broken through some bottleneck. In an instant, the surrounding true qi immediately surged towards his body in a steady stream.
“Snap!”
At the bottom of the river, the surface of the space-time crystal stone cracked out a gap.
Immediately after, the slit on the Space-Time Crystal Stone, became more and more numerous, extending out continuously like a spider’s web.
With a bang, the Space-Time Crystal Stone burst apart, turning into grains of light, like rays, flying out in all directions.
Suddenly, those points of light retracted again, converging to the centre and flying into Zhang Ruochen’s brow.
Zhang Ruochen stood underneath the water, and the Spatial Domain naturally emanated out, withstanding the immense water pressure and pushing the river water away, forming a space with a diameter of ten feet.
“The energy contained in the Space-Time Crystal Stone has finally been completely exhausted and vanished completely. However, after absorbing that residual force of space-time, my knowledge of space seems to have improved a little more.”
Ever since he came to the eight hundred years, Zhang Ruochen had been carrying the Space-Time Crystal Stone with him, and it was because of such a treasure that Zhang Ruochen was able to catch up with those supreme geniuses and reach his current realm within just a few years.
Now, the Space-Time Crystal Stone ran out of energy and disappeared.
Although Zhang Ruochen was a little emotional, he was not lost or terrified.
The Space-Time Crystal Stone, after all, was only a treasure that assisted in cultivation, and the essence of cultivation was still cultivating one’s own strength. Excessively sacrificing the essence for the end was not a good thing.
Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and carefully felt the spatial power he had just realised and digested it.
Suddenly, his eyes fluttered open and he stretched out a finger, pointing it forwards, “Spatial Collapse.”
“Boom!”
Twenty feet away, space violently shook for a moment, then quickly collapsed, and the entire world looked like it had shattered, as the heavens and earth shook, and the aura was in disarray.
“Wow!”
A large river, fifty feet wide.
The river was extremely deep, and the current was turbulent.
However, at this moment, a huge whirlpool appeared at the centre of the great river, and the turbulent waves of water, madly surged towards the centre of the whirlpool.
A moment later, all the river water was completely swallowed up by the collapsing space, revealing the dried up bottom of the river, resulting in the shocking image of the great river breaking its flow.
Zhang Ruochen executed Spatial Shift, and with a slight movement of his legs, in the next moment, he spanned a distance of tens of feet and stood on the bank of the river.
The collapsed space quickly regained its calm.
“Rumble!”
The water of the river upstream surged wildly like a giant wave, causing the great river to return to its original form.
“What a powerful spatial collapse, if I were to execute this move, Pei Ji wouldn’t be able to escape even if he was faster.”
Spatial Collapse was the true killing move, and in terms of power, it was unknown how many times more powerful than Spatial Rift.
As Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation deepened, the power exerted by executing this move would be even more terrifying.
