Chapter 40 Congratulations on Your Promotion to CEO

Shunli.It was clearly directed at Xiao Mei-qin.Tell her to stop having any wicked thoughts about the old man. If anything happens to him, your son will be buried with him."I hope you keep your word an...Mu Lingxi, Princess Luo Sha, Qing Mo, Su Qingling, and Bu Ji all followed Zhang Ruochin as they set off towards the Ninety-Nine Holy Mountains. In front of them stood a towering ancient holy mountain shaped like a turtle, emitting a powerful icy aura.

Bu Ji gazed up at the snowflakes constantly falling from the sky above Gu Sheng Mountain, feeling a sense of unease. After all, hundreds of miles away, another sacred mountain was burning with flames. 。

One cold and one hot, bizarre and unpredictable.

"Entering this sacred mountain, can you really reach the location of the merit list wall" Bu Ji asked. 。To know the answer, we must first enter this ancient sacred mountain. 。Zhang Ruochin carried the Chen Yuan Ancient Sword, walking at the front. 。He released his mental energy, maintaining a ten-thousand percent state of alert, guarding against all sorts of unknown dangers. 。In Mount Gushen, a mysterious power shrouded the area. The deeper they ventured, the denser the rules of heaven and earth became. An invisible force also pressed down on them, increasing the gravity they endured. 。After only walking thirty miles, Zhang Ruochin felt that the gravity around him had reached ten times that of the outside world. 。All cultivators followed Zhang Ruochen closely, not daring to be careless, and walked on the snow. 。Su Qingling's finger pointed to a location on the middle slopes of Mount Sheng, and she exclaimed: "Look there, there's an iceman!" 。Everyone stopped in their tracks and looked in the direction Su Qingling was pointing. 。The location of the iceman was over fifty miles away from them, but with the saint's eyesight, even with layers of cold air obstructing their view, they could still see the iceman's features. 。He was a short old man in ornate battle armor, encased in ice, standing motionless. 。In Buji's eyes, a sharp gleam appeared, and he said: "That is the sect master of a great sect in Daojue Realm, named Qiu Wànlǐ. His cultivation has reached the mid-stage of the Holy Realm." 。Not long ago, in the Spirit Realm, I encountered him again and almost came to blows. 。To his surprise, he had already died within this Glacial Holy Mountain. 。“Are you sure that person was Qiu Wanli” Su Qingling asked. 。"Hmm" 。Bu Ji nodded solemnly. 。Su Qingling had also heard the name Qiu Wanli, knowing that he was a top expert in the Blade Prison Realm. Even such a powerful figure died on Mount Sheng, it was truly difficult to maintain an optimistic attitude. 。"Qiu Wànlǐ should not have entered the Sacred Mountain alone. It's very possible that the cultivators from the Dao Prison Realm also calculated that they could reach the Merit Wall from here." 。Zhang Ruochen said 。Su Qingling nodded and said, "I've heard for a long time that the white-clothed Fang Yi of the Dao Prison Realm is in the Whale River Basin, but no cultivator has ever seen him. " 。It's not necessarily so, Fang Yi has already entered Mount Sheng from here first. 。Everyone must be more careful, Fang Yi is a very frightening person. Once you encounter him, you must avoid his edge. 。Hearing this, the Rakshasa princess let out a disdainful chuckle. 。Su Qingling obviously disliked the Rakshasa Princess very much. She snorted and immediately activated her Holy Soul Domain. In an instant, seventy-two halos of holy energy appeared, enveloping her in the center and protecting herself first. 。

Luo Sha princess's eyes, stared at Zhang Ruochin, said: "There is a group of human saints following us behind, do you want to solve them first"

Zhang Ruochin glanced back, then shook his head and said, "Since they want to follow, let them follow!"

Jiuyou Jian Saint and his three disciples followed behind Zhang Ruochin and the others, about ten miles away

Wang Su's figure emerged from the swirling white snow, her eyes narrowed slightly as she said, "Master, Zhang Ruochin and that woman in green seem to have discovered us." 。With their cultivation, they didn't notice that it was strange for us to be here. 。Since they didn't make a move, we'll just keep following them. 。The Nine Nether Sword Saint took a step forward and continued on his way. 。After about an hour, Zhang Ruochin and the others had traveled over fifty li and arrived at the location where the Ice Man had previously stood. 。"Hey, where did Qiu Wanli's body go It was just here a moment ago, how come it suddenly vanished"Qing Mo blinked her eyes, searching around. 。Even Zhang Ruochin and the Rakshasa Princess showed solemn expressions, standing still, mobilizing their spiritual power, and carefully probing this space. 。It is clear that they have sensed a huge danger approaching. 。

"Hiss hiss"

Beneath the thick snow, a faint sound arose, like an unknown creature gnashing its teeth. 。

That voice, constantly changing positions, moving at an incredible speed.

Suddenly, it appeared beneath Buji's feet, and immediately a pair of snow-white pincers emerged from beneath the snow. 。At the same time, a sword cry rang out, Zhang Ruochin's sword pierced into Bu Ji's feet. 。"Crackle" 。“With crimson blood, welling up from beneath the snow.” Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。When Zhang Ruochin drew out the Shen Yuan Ancient Sword again, a white scorpion with a pierced body appeared on the sword's body. It was about the size of a basin, and its two sharp pincers were as long as one meter. 。Within the white scorpion's body, there is a powerful holy force contained. On its shell, intricate glowing patterns flow. 。It struggled violently, letting out deafening roars. Waves of intense sound seemed to threaten to rupture eardrums. 。The lowest-ranked wood spirits, Xi and Qingmo, were struck by the sonic wave. Blood flowed from their ears, and they almost fainted to the ground. 。Zhang Ruochen let out a cold snort, his arm trembled, and he split the white scorpion's body in half. 。

The Rakshasa Princess rolled her eyes and said, “I told you, the weak have no right to befriend the strong. They are only a burden.

Zhang Ruochin let them go back, the two of us will go get the merit wall. 。Su Qing's spirit was so enraged that she ground her teeth non-stop, the holy sword in her hand trembling. If it weren't for Princess Luosha's terrifying strength, she would have probably already lunged with a sword strike. 。

"What Not convinced If it weren't for Zhang Ruochin, at least three of you would be dead by now"

"If you're not weak, then what are you If you're not a burden, then what" The Raksha Princess said bluntly. 。

"Who isn't growing step by step from a weakling Compared to those at the Saint King level, aren't we just weaklings too"

Zhang Ruochen said lightly. Then, he walked to the corpse of the White Scorpion, using his sword tip to pry open its shell, searching for a while before frowning: "Strange, this scorpion's power is so great, how could there be no Saint Source within it"

"That's because it's a Nether Ice Jade Scorpion..."

Su Qingling was well-informed and recognized the origin of the white scorpion. She continued, "Legend has it that the Mingbing Jade Scorpion was born from the water of the Underworld Winter, and can cultivate the power of Mingbing within its body." 。Mature Bingyus scorpions are incredibly powerful and can fight against half-step Holy Kings. 。The Holy King mainly cultivates the rules of the Holy Way, so it is difficult to define his exact realm. 。Generally, it takes special vessels to measure the level of a Saint King's realm. 。In the Kunlun Realm, there is the Emperor's God Ruler. 。In the Heavenly Court, it is the Nine Steps to Heaven Road that measures the realm of a Holy King. 。Therefore, the realm of the Holy King is divided into nine levels. 。The Saint King, on his ascent to heaven, with every step he takes, transcends a realm. 。

The first step of the Holy King, the second step of the Holy King, the third step of the Holy King...

The ninth step of the Holy King is the peak realm.

If so, a cultivator stepping onto the tenth step on the path to ascension would clearly enter the realm of Great Saint. Within a great world, one could then claim the title of Emperor. 。As for the Half-Step Saint King, they are not true Saint Kings because their Saint Dao rules are not strong enough. They are considered "above Saints but below Saint Kings." 。Of course, even so, a half-step Saint King is much stronger than a Holy One. 。The

Yinbing Jade Scorpion killed by Zhang Ruochen was not yet an adult, and its strength had not reached the level of a half-step Saint King.

"Look quickly, Qiu Wanli's head is in the abdomen of the Netherfrost Scorpion, not yet fully digested." 。 。

Inside the corpse of the Jade Scorpion, there was indeed half a bloody skull.

Zhang Ruochin's eyes stared at the corpse of the Bingyu Scorpion, squatting down, and extending a finger to place it on the white carapace, saying: "There is the breath of the true condensing holy dew within its body." 。And... it should be taking the Elixir of True Condensation every year. Could there be a large amount of Elixir of True Condensation hidden somewhere in this sacred mountain"Princess Rakshasa said: "It's not impossible. You have to know that buried deep within the ninety-nine sacred mountains is an existence close to a god." 。Each of the holy mountains on the periphery is certainly hiding a treasure. 。But opportunities and dangers coexist, where there are more treasures, the more perilous it is. 。Now, Zhang Ruochen's body only has about two thousand drops of True Saint Dew, which is not enough to cultivate to the middle stage of True Saint. 。Therefore, if this sacred mountain truly possesses a large quantity of condensed holy dew, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous temptation for him. 。The eyes of the rest also became a bit scorching. If they could get a lot of True Condensation Dew, they would definitely be able to quickly break through their realms. 。Will the Rakshasa Princess still mock them as weaklings then

Bu Ji was flushed with excitement, and eagerly said, "What are we waiting for Let's go at once!" 。The Saint of the Blade Prison World is very likely right before us. If we are late, there will be no share of the True Condensation Dew for us” The nine-headed Azure Bird following behind Princess Rakshasa also let out a series of strange cries, as if it also wanted to seize the True Condensation Dew. 。That nine-headed Azure Bird is only at the middle stage of the Sacred Realm now, with a lot of room for improvement. 。

The crowd quickened their pace, continuing on their journey. Before long, they entered the depths of Mount Sheng and arrived at the mountainside.

The gravity here is much stronger, even reaching one hundred times that of the outside world. 。Even with their powerful cultivation, they faintly sensed a hint of pressure. 。Here, they found the body of an adult ice jade scorpion on the ground. It was enormous, four or five times bigger than the one they had encountered before. 。A fully grown Mythic Ice Jade Scorpion possesses the strength to fight a half-step Saint King. 。Only a peerless expert could kill it. 。Mu Lingxi gasped in surprise. 。

Zhang Ruochin reached out a hand and checked the wounds on the Ice Jade Scorpion.

Inside the wound, a blade of qi dissipated, slicing across Zhang Ruochin's finger, leaving a shallow cut. 。"Such powerful sword energy, even a remnant force could break through my fleshly defenses." 。Zhang Ruochin was secretly surprised, and then stood up, looking forward, and said to the crowd: "This adult Netherice Jade Scorpion was killed half an hour ago. We are very close to the cultivators of the Blade Prison Realm." 。And, within the body of this adult Ice Jade Scorpion, I detected a more intense aura of True Condensation Holy Dew. This suggests that there is a high probability that this sacred mountain contains a large amount of True Condensation Holy Dew. 。"
