Chapter 778 On the ninth day of September, swordsmen gather together
The conversation with Xue Wuye naturally had a significant impact on Zhang Ruochen.
Since Xue Wuye could guess that he and Chi Yao might have an extraordinary relationship. Others must have guessed this, but Zhang Ruochen is dead, so they did not deliberately investigate.
However, as long as the news that Zhang Ruochen is not dead is spread, many people will surely dig out the secrets behind it. In the end, they will definitely find out the Prince of Shengming 800 years ago.
Xue Wuye is a smart person who will not do things that harm others and oneself. If he wanted to spread the news, he would have done this long ago and would never wait until now.
It is very likely that so far, he didn't know whether Zhang Ruochen was an enemy or friend?
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen is not worried much now. He lets him go with the flow and will definitely have a result in the future.
Zhang Ruochen came to Xuanji Sword Saint's mansion and wanted to meet Huang Yanchen. After all, after the sword contest, the two of them would definitely have fewer opportunities to meet.
However, he learned that Huang Yanchen was in seclusion and refining a drop of Dragon Emperor's blood, preparing to attack the eighth transformation of the fish and dragon, so he did not disturb her.
On this day, Zhang Ruochen used all his time to guide Han Xue's sword skills. It was not until the next day, on the evening of the eighth day of the September 19th, that he returned to Jiange again.
The first floor of Jiange, Room No. 18, Qingzi.
This is a huge temple with a length of hundreds of feet wide, which looks magnificent and extremely wide. All the top ten sword geniuses in each realm determined by the sword art competition are gathered here.
Gai Tianjiao, Cannabi, Zhao Wuyan, Han Qiu, Gai Hao, Mu Jiji, Xun Hualiu..., there are dozens of people in total, all of whom are the top sword geniuses in the Liangyi Sect.
Everyone stood at the bottom and saluted to the Jianyue Sword Saint at the same time, saying in unison: "Greetings to the Jianye."
The Burial Moon Sword Saint sat cross-legged on the platform in the center of the palace, wearing a purple shirt and a Taoist crown cast in purple gold, which looked quite majestic and said, "Tomorrow will be the swordsmanship conference. You are the best among the disciples of the Holy Legend. You will represent the Liangyi Sect to participate in this grand event. After recent practice, everyone's strength has made great progress, and I believe they are all ready."
Next, the Sword Saint of Burial Moon gave another lecture before everyone retreated, leaving Gai Tianjiao and Zhang Ruochen alone.
The expression of the Cangyue Sword Saint was quite serious and said, "The sword competition did select some elite talents. Unfortunately, they are still too immature. The battle tomorrow mainly depends on the performance of you two."
"Disciples will do their best to defend the honor of Liangyi Sect to the death." Gai Tianjiao said.
"Disciples will definitely do their best to protect Jiange." Zhang Ruochen said.
The Sword Saint of Burial Moon nodded, looked at Gai Tianjiao, and asked, "Tianjiao, how many drops of divine blood have you refined in total?"
"Including the three drops in the divine spring, five drops have been refined." Gai Tianjiao said.
The Sword Saint of Burial Moon said: "Do you want to fight for the sixth drop tomorrow?"
Gai Tianjiao smiled slightly and said, "If I hadn't swallowed the divine spring, I could try to refine another drop of divine blood.
"However, now my cultivation has reached the extreme of the Fish and Dragon Realm. Once I start to refine the divine blood, I will definitely not be able to suppress the realm. In an instant, I will break through to the semi-saint realm. Breaking through to the semi-saint realm and refining the divine blood will be less meaningful, but it is a waste."
The more divine blood the monks in the Yulong realm refine, the greater the benefit. The key is that the holy soul has not yet taken shape. In this way, the divine seal that has been cultivated can be integrated into the holy soul.
The more divine seals are integrated into the holy soul, the stronger they will be, and the more sensitive they will be to the perception of the holy path. If so, control the holy soul and swing the power of the divine seal, it will be enough to crush the semi-saints of the same realm.
However, when you reach the semi-saint realm, the holy soul has taken shape. Even if you refine divine blood and practice divine seals, you cannot integrate into the holy soul.
Of course, the semi-saint's divine blood refined enough to become a sanctified body.
However, even the medieval families store divine blood. It is already quite good to take out a few drops of each era to cultivate the best monks in the Yulong Realm and lay a certain foundation for him in the holy path.
How can there be so much divine blood to cultivate a saint in the body?
As the saying goes, good steel is mainly used on the blade because there is too little good steel. If there is enough good steel, who wouldn't want to build a peerless treasure knife?
The sword saint of the Burial Moon looked at Zhang Ruochen and said, "Lin Yue, you haven't started to refine divine blood yet?"
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, "That's right."
The Sword Saint of Burial Moon took out a three-inch square metal box from his sleeve, gently pushed his palm, turned into a wind, flew towards Zhang Ruochen, and said, "This is a drop of divine blood. Tomorrow, the sacrificial ceremony before the swordsmanship begins. You can take this opportunity to refine it with the power of the gods."
Zhang Ruochen caught the metal box and his lips moved, as if he wanted to speak but stopped.
The Sword Saint of Burial Moon naturally saw that Zhang Ruochen's expression was a little wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong? What do you have any questions?"
"Is it just a drop?" Zhang Ruochen said.
The Sword Saint of Burial Moon was stunned at first, then smiled: "This time, you try it first. If you can refine it, it will naturally be a good thing. If you cannot refine it, don't blame yourself for wasting a drop of divine blood. When you break through the ninth transformation of the fish and dragon, the sect will naturally give you another drop. The sect will never be stingy with geniuses."
Zhang Ruochen said, "Can't disciples refine two drops at once?"
Hearing this, Gai Tianjiao, who was standing beside him, laughed out loud and said, "Junior Brother Lin Yue, Senior Sister knows that you are a genius, but you may not know how powerful the divine blood contains is. If so, you can successfully refine a drop of divine blood in the eighth transformation of the fish and dragon, it would be a very amazing achievement. Do you actually want to refine two drops at once?"
"Isn't there anyone who can refine two drops of divine blood at once?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
Gai Tianjiao shook her head and said, "The entire Kunlun Realm cultivator who can refine two drops of divine blood can count the ten fingers. It takes most of the first drop of divine blood to refine one or two years to adapt to the power of the divine seal in the body and constantly temper the physique so that he can refine the second drop of divine blood."
"The figure who refines two drops of divine blood at one time has never appeared again since the Middle Ages."
The Sword Saint of Burial Moon also said: "Lin Yue, don't be too ambitious first. The talent in swordsmanship does not mean that you can withstand the power of divine blood. A drop of divine blood drops on the Hundred-Striped Holy Artifact can penetrate it. You can imagine how terrifying the power it contains? Is your body harder than the Hundred-Striped Holy Artifact?"
Zhang Ruochen looked at the metal box in his hand and asked, "Since the power of divine blood is so powerful, how can a monk refine it?"
When the Sword Saint of Burial Moon saw Zhang Ruochen begin to ask questions humbly, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Tonight, I will teach you the method of refining divine blood."
In the next time, the Burial Moon Sword Saint told Zhang Ruochen all the methods of refining divine blood, as well as some precautions.
It was not until the morning of the next day that Zhang Ruochen mastered everything.
Afterwards, the Jianyue Sword Saint led Zhang Ruochen to the square outside the Jian Pavilion, step by step, and all the way to the top of the altar.
There are thousands of wild beasts on the altar, and they are bound with iron chains. Later, when the sacrificial ceremony begins, they will be killed, and their blood will be used to open the bridge of heaven and earth, and communicate with the gods.
According to the instructions of the Sword Saint of Burial Moon, Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged at the bottom of a seven-meter-long and wide pool in the center of the top of the altar.
"Remember, it is very dangerous to refine divine blood. If you are not careful, you will die. If you realize that your body cannot bear the power of divine blood, you must immediately cut off the connection with divine blood." The Sword Saint of Burial Moon repeatedly reminded him.
"Disciple understand."
Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and began to adjust his mood.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint stared at Zhang Ruochen at the bottom of the pool and took a deep breath. He also hoped that Zhang Ruochen could refine his divine blood, so that he could have the strength to compete with Shao Lin. Otherwise, he would definitely lose.
Of course, all these words were hidden in the heart of the Burial Moon Sword Saint and did not say them, for fear of putting too much pressure on Zhang Ruochen, and instead harming him.
Immediately, the Sword Saint of Burial Moon walked down the altar and walked towards the gate outside the square to greet the guests participating in the sword contest.
The sky gradually brightened, and a five-color holy ship that was hundreds of feet long flew from a distance, passed through the ancient sacred mountain, and landed on the top of the third mountain.
Sword cultivators who participated in the sword competition walked down from the five-colored holy ship in a constant stream, entered the square outside the sword pavilion, and gathered in various directions around the altar.
Wushi Qianzhuang, the court, the Ministry of War, the Sixiang Sect, the Demon Sect, the Bagua Sect... The most top forces in the Kunlun Realm are all led by sword cultivators at the level of saints.
In addition, some casual cultivators with extremely high sword realm received invitations from Liangyi Sect and became guests of the sword contest.
There is no doubt that the monks who can come to Jian Pavilion are either first-class geniuses, semi-saints, saint-level overlords, and even some old sword monsters who have lived for a long time have also appeared at the sword contest.
After all, during the sword competition, saint-level sword cultivators can enter the seventh level of the sword pavilion and comprehend the wordless sword score together. Just this point has an irresistible attraction to those old sword monsters.
"Look, Jiuyou Sword Saint appears. It is said that today he will fight Xuan Ji's life and death with the Saint. I don't know who will be the last person to live?"
The younger generation of sword cultivators were all excited when they saw the Nine Nether Sword Saint.
If it weren't for the Sword Contest, they would probably have been unable to see a sword saint in their entire lives. However, today, several sword saints have appeared, each of which is famous all over the world.
The Nine Nether Sword Saint was wearing a blue-gray cloth dress and a pair of simple straw sandals, which looked extremely ordinary. On him, there was no breath that a strong man should have.
In addition, the five disciples of the Jiuyou Sword Saint, the Saint-level Sword Cultivator and the Semi-Saint-level Sword Cultivator in the Black Market of the East Region, and some sword geniuses in the Fish and Dragon Realm, totaling nearly a hundred people, followed by the Jiuyou Sword Saint and appeared together.
Not long after, Xuan Ji Sword Saint led the sword cultivator from the Holy Academy of the East Region and also appeared in the Sword Pavilion.
The more and more sword cultivators received from the Five-Colored Holy Ship, making the Sword Pavilion more and more lively. From time to time, legendary characters appear, causing a huge sensation.
