Comprehend the magical powers of the Immortal Emperor.

Shen Changqing did not stay any longer, but explored other places in the Demon God's Tomb.

After all, he has been in the Demon God's Tomb for eighty years, and in another twenty years, the Demon God's Tomb will be closed.

Before that.

Shen Changqing naturally couldn't miss this opportunity.

Next.

Shen Changqing continued to walk in the chaos. Some broken pieces of heaven and earth, as well as deep in the starry sky, were home to some natural treasures.

In this regard.

Any natural treasure above the eighth level.

Shen Changqing didn't miss any of them.

period.

Shen Changqing even found an Emperor Blood Flower.

Emperor Blood Flower!
As the name suggests.

It is a natural treasure that was born from the blood of the Immortal Emperor.

The difference is that not all places where the blood of the Immortal Emperor falls can produce the Emperor Blood Flower.

otherwise.

Such natural treasures are not even up to the ninth level.

The appearance of the Emperor Blood Flower is only an extremely small probability event. When the blood of the Immortal Emperor falls on a certain place, and then by chance, it is contaminated with the Dao rhyme of heaven and earth, and finally it can truly be born.

As a ninth-rank treasure, taking the Emperor's Blood Flower could improve one's bloodline. In addition, one could also temper one's physical body to further improve one's strength.

Even at Shen Changqing's level, the Emperor Blood Flower is still effective.

"Ninth-level natural treasure!"

"The opportunities in the Demon God Tomb are not all inherited from the Immortal Emperor. This kind of natural treasure is also one of them. If I can get enough Emperor Blood Flowers, I may be able to take my physical body to the next level!"

Having said that, Shen Changqing was quite satisfied.

After all, even in the outside world, ninth-grade treasures are rare. It is already considered good enough to find one by entering the Demon God's Tomb.

But a pity.

After finding the Emperor Blood Flower, Shen Changqing never came across a second ninth-grade treasure.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Shen Changqing crushed the token given to him by the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord and instantly disappeared into the chaos.

space transformation.

When Shen Changqing appeared again, he was already in the outside world.

at the same time.

There were also streams of light appearing beside him. These were the monks who had left the Demon God's Tomb.

Among these cultivators, Shen Changqing saw many familiar faces. At the same time, most of these cultivators were injured and their aura was erratic.

"Divine Junior Brother!"

"Senior Brother Gu!"

Shen Changqing nodded slightly.

Gu Zhou's aura was a little disordered. Although he concealed it well, Shen Changqing could see that he was seriously injured.

"Brother Gu, did you run into trouble in the Demon God Tomb?"

"There is no other way. There are too many evil thoughts in the Demon God Tomb. I was unlucky to encounter an evil thought of the Immortal Emperor. Fortunately, I was able to escape, otherwise I would have died there."

Gu Zhou smiled bitterly, his tone full of helplessness.

In this regard.

Shen Changqing did not comment.

It was true that Gu Zhou encountered the evil thoughts of the Immortal Emperor, but Shen Changqing didn't believe that he was no match for the evil thoughts of the Immortal Emperor.

To know.

Any one of the top five saint sons has the strength to rival the invincible ancient immortals.

Gu Zhou was originally from the third sequence and his strength was even more powerful.

Later, Bai Yufeng, who fell to the second sequence, was defeated by Gu Zhou, which further proved that the strength of this third sequence person was by no means simple.

Shen Changqing was very clear about the strength of the Immortal Emperor Xie Nian. The average Immortal Emperor Xie Nian was at most at the level of the Invincible Ancient Immortal.

It is not so easy to truly be on par with the Immortal Emperor.

This is because most of the Immortal Emperors were only at the initial stage of Immortal Emperor when they died. The evil thoughts born from such existence could not be stronger than when they were alive.

If Gu Zhou had encountered the evil thoughts of the demon god, he would not have waited until now to come out.

However, Gu Zhou wanted to hide his shortcomings, and Shen Changqing was too lazy to expose him.

Time passes little by little.

The entrance to the Demon God's Tomb shook, and the dissipated aura of the Great Dao reappeared. Horrible restrictions intertwined the void, completely closing the entrance.

at this time.

Shen Changqing then looked at the other cultivators again.

At a glance, Shen Changqing discovered that only 70% of the cultivators who went in came out of the Demon God's Tomb this time.

In other words.

At least 30% of the cultivators died in the Demon God’s Tomb.

This ratio.

It’s quite big.

You should know that every cultivator who enters the Demon God's Tomb has a protection token on him. If they encounter unstoppable danger, they can crush the token and leave the Demon God's Tomb directly.

In this situation, 30% of the monks were lost, which means that many of these fallen monks had no time to react and died on the spot.

The other monks also noticed this and their expressions looked a little unhappy.

more than this.

As if he was thinking of something unpleasant, his face gradually became gloomy.

"The fact that you can come out of the Demon God's Tomb shows that you have good luck and strength. A million years later, the Demon God's Tomb will be opened again. If you can still appear here at that time, you can enter again!"

The Heavenly Demon Saint Lord spoke lightly, but when he saw the number of cultivators coming out, there was a hint of coldness in the depths of his eyes.

The more monks who die, the worse the situation in the Demon God’s Tomb becomes.

But this kind of thing is not something that the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord can control.

Soon.

Many monks dispersed.

Shen Changqing returned to Shenyue Peak.

but.

Not long after he returned to Shenyue Peak, Gu Zhou came to visit him. Shen Changqing did not turn this third-sequence visitor away.

……

"Junior brother, Shenyue Peak is quite deserted. Why don't you select some disciples from the Thirty-Six Immortal Cities to work in Shenyue Peak? They can also handle some daily chores."

"If we can take care of it, Shenyue Peak will definitely be a different sight!"

Stepping into Shenyue Peak, Gu Zhou looked at the scene in front of him with some emotion on his face.

Although it is the same Shenyue Peak, the Shenyue Peak of the 19th sequence at that time and the Shenyue Peak of the current 1st sequence are completely two different concepts.

Don't say anything else.

The concentration of the immortal energy in Shenyue Peak alone is unmatched by any other peak.

After hearing Gu Zhou's words, Shen Changqing looked calm: "Junior brother, I don't like other cultivators to disturb me. What's more, these are external objects and are not of much help to my own cultivation. Why waste all this time?"

"Junior brother, you have a firm determination to pursue the Dao. I admire you!"

A look of admiration appeared on Gu Zhou's face.

Unmoved by foreign objects.

No wonder my junior brother can cultivate to this level.

When they arrived at the top of Shenyue Peak, Shen Changqing waved his sleeves, and a stone table and stone bench appeared. Gu Zhou sat down beside him as if he was familiar with the place.

Shen Changqing took out another set of tea sets. The fragrant aroma of the fairy tea spread, making the surrounding plants seem to become much more lush.

“Good tea!”

Gu Zhou simply took a sip and couldn't help but exclaim in praise.

Shen Changqing smiled faintly: "As long as you think it's good, Senior Brother."

"Although I have some fairy tea, it is not as good as what you have, my junior brother!"

Gu Zhou shook his head, then he drank the tea in the cup and suddenly changed the subject.

"Junior brother, you have just arrived at the Heavenly Demon Holy Land not long ago. I wonder how much you know about the Heavenly Demon Holy Land?"

"Please give me some advice, brother."

"The internal relationships in the Heavenly Demon Holy Land are complicated. Over countless years, many aristocratic families and factions have emerged. These aristocratic families and factions are fighting openly and secretly, with only one goal, which is to sit on the position of the Holy Lord!"

Gu Zhou had no intention of hiding anything, but spoke earnestly.

From Gu Zhou, Shen Changqing learned about the internal situation of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. The existence of various major family factions was also one of the reasons for the decline of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land.

Many factions fought openly and secretly, and even many geniuses fell as a result.

Even if the Holy Lord of Heavenly Demons is in charge of the situation and does not allow these forces to harm the Holy Land's geniuses, it is easier to dodge an open attack than to guard against an arrow from the dark, and there will always be times when they are careless.

“Master was born as a casual cultivator, and later entered the Heavenly Demon Holy Land to attain the Dao of the Immortal Emperor, thus forming his own lineage. However, since Master’s death, several fellow disciples in our faction have died due to various accidents. It can be seen that there is a faction secretly dealing with us, just to eliminate Master’s lineage.

Up to now, there are only a few disciples like you and me left in Master's lineage, and you and I are the only ones who can join the ranks of the Sequence of Saints!"

Gu Zhou sighed, his face full of helplessness.

Compared with other aristocratic factions, the Yanyu lineage has the weakest foundation. But when the Yanyu Immortal Emperor was alive, even if the foundation of this lineage was weak, it could not be shaken by other factions.

A living Immortal Emperor is the most powerful trump card.

But with the fall of Emperor Yanyu, the Yanyu lineage's biggest trump card has been lost, and naturally it has become the target of other factions.

Even with the open suppression of the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord, these factions did not dare to act openly, but they also made many moves in secret.

“Just like Yan Zhenhai and Yan Xiong, who were killed by Junior Brother, they belonged to an ancient family, and their ancestors were once Immortal Emperors.

Yan Xiong is not only the elder of the Holy Land, but also the current head of the Yan family. Now that Yan Xiong and Yan Zhenhai have fallen, the Yan family may not let it go. "

"Yan Family..."

A flash of cold light flashed in Shen Changqing's eyes.

"It's fine if the Yan family doesn't take action. If they really want to, I don't mind wiping out the Yan family. So what if there was an Immortal Emperor in their ancestors? There is no Immortal Emperor in the Yan family now, so there is no need to be too afraid."

This is not an exaggeration by Shen Changqing, but he really did not take the Yan family seriously.

If the Yan family really wanted to take action against him, it would be just as Shen Changqing wished. He could just get rid of the Yan family openly and prevent future troubles.

Gu Zhou didn't seem surprised by this answer, and smiled.

“Junior brother’s character is really strong, but the Yan family is not stupid. Junior brother defeated Chong Yuan not long ago, so I don’t think they would dare to take action at this time.

Of course, even if the Yan family takes action, I, your brother, will not sit idly by.

Now the Yanyu lineage has been hit hard by the death of our master. You and I are from the same sect, so we should support each other!"

Until this moment.

Gu Zhou was the one who truly stated his purpose.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing glanced at the other person calmly and said, "You and I are from the same family, so it is only right that we support each other."

his words.

Let Gu Zhou smile. (End of this chapter)
