The country where Zhang Ruochen is now located is called "Yunwu County State", but it is just one of the thousands of counties and states in the eastern region of Kunlun.

The so-called counties are actually the first county of the First Central Empire, and they must pay tribute and pay taxes to the First Central Empire every year.

The king of a county is called the "county king".

Zhang Ruochen's current identity is the ninth son of Prince Yunwu.

Lying flat on the cold and hard wooden bed, Zhang Ruochen was still thinking about tomorrow's sacrificial ceremony.

"The original owner of this body did not open the divine martial seal until he was sixteen years old. He must be a person abandoned by the gods. What should I do to have a greater chance to open the divine martial seal'?"

In Kunlun Realm, if you want to open the "Shenwu Seal", you must be recognized by the gods.

It is called the God-given grant of martial power.

During the sacrificial ceremony, a bridge of heaven and earth will appear between the divine realm and the Kunlun realm, connecting the two realms. After enjoying the sacrifice, the gods will give some talented human "divine martial arts seals" to help them open the door to practice.

The higher the talent, the sooner the "Shenwu Seal" will be obtained.

In his previous life, Zhang Ruochen opened the "Shenwu Seal" when he was still in the fetus, and he was born with a genius.

In this life, until the age of sixteen, he did not open the "Shenwu Seal". He was basically a person abandoned by the gods. Even if he participated in the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow, he would almost never be able to obtain the "Shenwu Seal". 1: Hey Yange

Zhang Ruochen couldn't fall asleep, so he sat up from the bed, holding a white crystal in the shape of a date pit in his hand. The two ends were sharp, three-dimensional in the middle, crystal clear, without any impurities.

He began to study this white crystal. Perhaps it could help himself, gain the recognition of a certain god, and open the "Shenwu Seal".

This white crystal was a gift from Emperor Ming when he was sixteen years old.

Zhang Ruochen didn't know what this white crystal was, but just wore it close to his body. Unexpectedly, eight hundred years later, it was still on his body.

"I will come from eight hundred years ago to eight hundred years later, maybe it will be related to it."

Zhang Ruochen tightly pinched the white crystal, closed his eyes, and the figure of his father, Emperor Ming, appeared in his mind. I wonder if his father is still alive in the world?

That night, heavy snow fell on the royal city.

The next morning, the entire royal city was covered with thick snow, and the vermilion palaces, pavilions, and pavilions were all covered with a layer of ice sculptures and snow clothes.

Winter Solstice is the coldest day of the year.

The warriors from the entire royal city gathered outside the temple of the emperors and sacrificed to the gods under the leadership of the princes.

Outside the temple of the emperors, an ancient altar was built with huge stones. On the altar, not only were there tens of thousands of livestock, cattle, sheep, pigs..., but also many powerful beasts locked with iron chains.

All civil and military officials, martial arts monks, princes and concubines, countless teenagers and girls waiting to open the divine martial arts mark, and even some babies who are still in their infancy.

This is a national grand ceremony, not just a royal city, but also a sacrifice in every city, town and village of Yunwu County.

"God! Ninth brother, you are sixteen years old. Even if you participate in the sacrificial ceremony, you will never be able to obtain the divine martial arts seal. Why should you be embarrassed?" The eighth prince Zhang Ji smiled coldly with his hands on his back.

The sixth prince stood beside the eighth prince, with a cold face and said, "It is said that the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each with different characteristics. What a heroic figure of the father, but he gave birth to you as a waste. He is sixteen years old, and even the mark of the Divine Martial Arts has not been opened, and the royal family's face has been thrown away by you. What are you doing in this world? Why not die?"

This sentence is a bit exaggerated, but it is the voice of the princes present.

The family affection of the imperial family is the most thin, and this moment is fully reflected.

In Kunlun Realm, there are not many people who can open the "Shenwu Seal", and at most one out of the ten people. It can be said that each warrior has a very high status.

Of course, for martial arts masters, it is another matter. If the bloodline of martial arts masters is strong, their descendants will pass on their powerful bloodlines, and the probability of opening the "Shenwu Seal" is much greater.

The Prince of Yunwu had a total of nine sons, eight of whom had opened the "Shenwu Seal", but only Zhang Ruochen, who was already sixteen years old, still did not open the "Shenwu Seal", and became a laughing stock of the royal family.

Many people laugh at him as "the father of tiger and the son of dog".

There were even some rumors in the court, claiming that Zhang Ruochen was not the biological son of Prince Yunwu. Although it was just a rumor, it also made the faces of the people in the royal family lose their faces.

Therefore, most of the other princes thought that Zhang Ruochen was a shame to the royal family and did not regard him as a brother at all, wishing he could die soon.

In recent years, even the Prince of Yunwu has been a little alienated from Zhang Ruochen and Concubine Lin. Under the exclusion of other concubines and princes, last night, Zhang Ruochen and Concubine Lin were finally driven out of the main hall and forced to move to the side hall.

Zhang Ruochen just stood there silently, ignoring the fifth prince and the eighth prince.

Before you have enough strength, any verbal disputes will only make others look down on you even more.

Concubine Lin stood with other princesses and felt heartbroken when she saw Zhang Ruochen who was excluded, but she had no choice.

"The ceremony begins!"

The national master of Yunwu County stood above the altar, holding a volume of blessings and chanting.

Then, above the altar, snails and large horns were blown, and palace maids with graceful clothes rang sixteen kinds of musical instruments, including chimes, chimes, and bells.

Then, kill the livestock and sacrifice to the heaven with blood.

"Wow"

The rich blood and energy turned into a thick pillar of light, shattering the clouds and rushing into the vast sky.

Suddenly, a starlight flew down from the sky and fell on the forehead of a six-year-old boy, blending with the little boy's body, turning into a red "Shenwu Seal".

A scream came from the crowd, "Zhi Dutong's youngest son opened the Divine Martial Seal at the age of six!"

"The Red Flame Divine Martial Seal belongs to the fourth-grade Divine Martial Seal. It is so powerful that it has a bright future!"

The Shenwu Seal is also divided into grades, from first to ninth grade.

The first-grade divine martial arts seal is the weakest, and the ninth-grade divine martial arts seal is the strongest.

Everyone stared at the six-year-old boy with envious eyes.

He opened the fourth-grade magical mark at the age of six, and is a pride of heaven, and his future achievements will definitely be great.

Among the many military generals in Yunwu County, a burly man patted his chest and laughed loudly, excited, "Okay! He is worthy of being my son of Xue Liang. Tonight, the Presidential Palace will hold a banquet. You must come to enjoy the scenery. Haha!"

"Wow!"

In the sky, countless starlights flew down, falling into the middle of the young men, and the girl's eyebrows turned into divine martial marks.

Among them, there are very few young people who can open the second-grade divine mark with the most first-grade divine mark with the most powerful one, and the son of Xue Dutong, and the fourth-grade divine mark with everyone.

After all, there are only a few people who open the divine martial arts seal, and only one-tenth of the total number. Everyone was inexplicably excited and finally got the recognition of the gods and opened the door to martial arts.

The boys and girls who did not open the divine martial arts mark were all very disappointed, and some even cried bitterly, which was a joy and a sad family.

As the sacrifice was about to end, Zhang Ruochen still did not open the divine martial arts seal.

Even if you haven't opened the Divine Martial Seal at the age of sixteen, it's almost impossible for you to open the Divine Martial Seal. In the future, you can only be a mediocre person.

Everyone ignored him, like a speck of dust in the corner, not receiving any attention.

At the beginning, Concubine Lin also held a trace of fantasy, hoping that her child could create miracles and open the divine martial arts mark. Even if she could not become a martial arts powerhouse, she could at least strengthen her body and not be tortured by illness again.

As the sacrifice came to an end, Lin Fei's hope turned into disappointment, even despair again.

Just when Zhang Ruochen thought he could not open the divine martial arts seal, the white crystal that was tightly squeezed in his hand lit up slightly.

At the best moment before the end of the sacrifice, a starlight fell from the sky and fell to Zhang Ruochen's eyebrows, turning into a white round magic mark.

"Wow!"

A burning feeling came from the middle of my eyebrows and then spread throughout my body.

Turn on!

Zhang Ruochen was extremely excited and finally opened the divine martial arts seal.

Just open the Divine Martial Seal. Even if it is a first-class Divine Martial Seal, he doesn't care at all.

No one paid attention to Zhang Ruochen at first, but the moment Zhang Ruochen opened the divine martial arts seal, it attracted everyone's attention.

"That's not the Ninth Prince. He is sixteen years old and weak and sickly. He can even open the divine martial arts seal!" Many people stared at Zhang Ruochen with an incredible look, feeling incredible.

The Sixth Prince and the Eighth Prince who were standing beside Zhang Ruochen also widened their eyes and showed a look of surprise.

How is this possible?

Concubine Lin looked at Zhang Ruochen. After seeing the divine martial mark between Zhang Ruochen's eyebrows, she shed tears of joy and immediately rushed to Zhang Ruochen's body and hugged Zhang Ruochen's body tightly. "Chen'er, you finally did it! You did it!"

An old eunuch next to Prince Yunwu walked to Zhang Ruochen and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Concubine Lin, congratulations to His Highness Ninth Prince for opening the divine martial seal! The queen asked the old slave to invite His Highness Ninth Prince over. She wanted to personally test the grade of the divine martial seal opened by His Highness Ninth Prince!"

"queen!"

The smile on Lin Fei's face froze immediately, and she protected Zhang Ruochen behind her with some nervousness.

"Mother, let's go and see the queen!"

Zhang Ruochen noticed the subtle changes of Concubine Lin and thought to himself that it seemed that this queen was not a good person, so she had to be more careful.
