Chapter 1791 - Upheaval at Luoshui (1/2)
Early in the morning, the air was cold, and the mist was like a heavenly bridge.
Luo Shuihan stayed up all night and sent dispatches everywhere to gather all of the materials on the list, and put them into a dozen large bronze boxes.
Zhang Ruochen went through the list one by one and nodded satisfyingly.
There were some materials on the list that were extremely rare, and Zhang Ruochen had never heard of them before and thought that there were no such things in Kunlun Realm. He was immediately impressed. “The Martial Market Bank sure is resourceful.”
As expected of a faction that lived through the great upheaval a hundred thousand years ago, and their background is far beyond Zhang Ruochen’s initial estimations.
In the Middle Ages, the Martial Market Bank was a top faction among the behemoths of the Kunlun Realm and had more than one G.o.d behind them.
After paying a large number of saint stones, Zhang Ruochen asked Luo Shuihan, “Does the Martial Market Bank have any Tears of the Void?”
Helping the Ancient Abyssal Sword converge its form was something Zhang Ruochen had to do next.
The rest of the materials were all ready, but he still lacked a few more Tears of the Void. Zhang Ruochen did not expect the Martial Market Bank to have the item, and had only asked to try just try his luck.
Luo Shuihan frowned as she said. “That’s a legendary treasure, and I’ve only seen them in ancient tomes. I’m not sure whether the Martial Market Bank has them or not, but of course, I can ask for you.”
“Okay, then I’ll be troubling you for that. Let me know if there are any news. We can discuss the price in saint stones later.”
Zhang Ruochen placed the dozen bronze chests into his Dimensional Ring, before going to Lei Jing to bid his farewells. Immediately after, he left the Qianshui royal city.
Moyin drove the Golden Dragon Carriage and rushed towards Luoshui.
Since he was trusted with the matter, he would see it through.
In any case, The Fane of Youshen should not be able to break into the Royal Mountains for the time being, and he had ample of time. At the same time, Zhang Ruochen was also a little curious, not only because of both Luo Xu and Luo Shuihan’s opportunities, but also the G.o.d-Defiance Stele.
The power of the G.o.d-Defiance Stele was the most bizarre of powers Zhang Ruochen had ever seen, and it must have quite the history to it.
And half of that stele was actually salvaged from Luoshui.
An hour later, Zhang Ruochen arrived at the bay of Luoshui.
Several years ago, Zhang Ruochen had stayed here to train the Luoshui Fist technique and to unravel the secrets of Luoshui. When he came to Luoshui again, he could barely recognize it and thought that he had come to the wrong place.
Was this still Luoshui?
Before him was the endless blue waves like an ancient ocean.
The Luoshui in the past was definitely not that vast.
Plus, a faint mist floated on the surface of the waters, and mysterious powers flowed with in it, blocking Zhang Ruochen’s vision and spiritual senses, leaving him only able to see the waters within a hundred miles, and any further away it was a patchy blur.
Zhang Ruochen unfolded a pair of dragon wings, and like a human-shaped goose, he flew into the water and headed toward the depths of the water.
As he walked upon the waves, he went ahead for a hundred miles.
Zhang Ruochen smelled a faint fragrance, and it smelt like tulips.
Soon, Zhang Ruochen actually saw a tulip several miles away that was the size of a tower, and each piece of the petal looked like it was carved out of rubies, and was crystal clear. Beneath the s.h.i.+ning sun, it looked particularly gorgeous.
“That’s one-hundred-thousand-year-old sacred medicine.”
Zhang Ruochen was extremely surprised, and his emotions went out of control and got exceedingly excited.
Luoshui was not only filled with both heavenly and earthly saint Qi, and even the heavenly and earthly precepts were all active. How did a-hundred-thousand-year-old ancient sacred medicine like this appear?
It was too abnormal.
What sort of changes had taken place at Luoshui? Was it the same as the Royal Mountains, and was it an awakened location?
“Master, be careful. It’s not a simple tulip and is probably a Malevolent Plant, a Demonic Tulip. The fragrance it emits is extremely stimulating and seductive, and could affect the mind and emotions of a cultivator with flesh and blood.” Moyin said.
Zhang Ruochen immediately stopped as he held his breath and mobilized the Divine Purification Flames and refined the fragrance he had inhaled into his body.
There were problems indeed.
With his deep cultivation, how could he not control his own emotions?
After refining the fragrance in his body, Zhang Ruochen’s thoughts cleared, and he immediately backed away upon sensing a dangerous aura.
The Demonic Tulip, among the Malevolent Plants, was not much weaker than the Saint Devourer. It was proficient in spiritual attacks, and even if it was only ten thousand years old, it could use its fragrance and spiritual powers to affect living beings in a radius of thousands of miles. Of course, the mortals here referred to creatures like snakes, insects, rats, and the like.
However, the one before him was a hundred thousand years old Demonic Tulip.
Even if Zhang Ruochen was a Saint King, should he get close, he would probably die.
“c.r.a.p.”
Zhang Ruochen noticed that the petals of the Demonic Tulip exuding a blood-red brilliance.
Whoos.h.!.+
A blood light blasted out in all directions, and immediately dyeing the sky and waters red, and even more terrifying was a powerful spiritual power was carried within the blood light.
Zhang Ruochen looked over and saw thousands of blood-red Demonic Knights rus.h.i.+ng towards him as deafening roars and the sounds of slaughter rang in his ears, shaking his saint soul so hard that it threatened to fly out of his body.
“It’s a spiritual attack.”
Zhang Ruochen immediately took out the Pearls of Vanity and held it in his palm.
The saint Qi in his body started to circulate frantically as they converged towards the Pearls of Vanity.
