A figure suddenly appeared in front of the empress. He had a slender figure and a handsome face. It was Zhuge Fan, who had fallen from the sky previously.
"You're not dead?"
The same question was asked by the empress and the girl in the red hood at the same time. However, one of them was surprised, while the other was shocked.
Zhuge Fan nodded slightly at the empress, then looked up at the girl in the red hood and sneered, "If I'm not dead, you're going to die!"
He raised his hand to the sky and clenched it tightly. The dark clouds in the sky seemed to have been squeezed into his palm. Rumbling thunder and purple lightning flashed across the void like a dancing dragon. The whistling wind made people's eardrums tremble. A murderous chill poured down from the top of Zhuge Fan's head.
"Immortal Battle Form!"
Zhuge Fan's eyes were filled with a strange and cold light. His muscles were twisting all over his body, and a layer of viscous black liquid that looked like a cornea emerged from his white skin. It covered the surface of his body and dyed him into a black warrior. The black liquid only stopped when it reached his neck, and only his cheeks remained intact.
The girl in the red hood saw the black liquid on his body solidify after it covered every part of his body. His sturdy body was like an ancient god of war, filled with power.
"This, this is Black Jade Holy Water!"
The girl in the red hood's eyes narrowed as she stared at the black liquid on Zhuge Fan's body. "You, you got the black jade?
You actually have such a large amount of it. This is a treasure specially used to refine top-notch Heavenly Artifacts. You, you actually used it on your own body? "
Zhuge Fan looked at her coldly. "You're wrong. This is not Black Jade Holy Water. Although it looks similar, this is Earth Obsidian!
Although I just got it and am not familiar with it, you can't kill me with your strength! "
"What!"
The girl in the red hood's eyes narrowed to the size of a needle. Her voice trembled as she said, "This, this is Earth Obsidian?"
She could not hide the shock in her voice.
Suddenly, she thought of something and said flatly, "Impossible!
Not to mention how precious the Back Earth Obsidian is, just based on its characteristics, if you want to fuse it into your body, I'm afraid you'll die countless times before you can do so! "
"That's right."
Zhuge Fan smirked. "However, I have a special ability that allows me to merge with the Back Earth Obsidian!
Didn't you just kill me? Aren't I still fine? Furthermore, I didn't use the Earth Blackstone Armor to resist your attack. "
The girl in the red hood was stunned for a moment, and then her face turned pale. "You, you …"
Zhuge Fan didn't look at her anymore. He turned around and walked to the empress's side. As he stared into her clear and bright eyes, his heart thumped wildly. He hurriedly averted his gaze, held her soft little hand, and said softly, "Don't let go. I will protect you!"
As he spoke, the lava from the Empress Tu Blackstone flowed down his arm like muddy water and onto the empress's body.
The empress felt a layer of something soft and cool sticking to her skin. It was indescribably comfortable, and she couldn't help but marvel in her heart.
At this moment, her body also became pitch-black, completely enveloped by the Empress Tu Blackstone Lava.
"You really have such a treasure …" The empress leaned against Zhuge Fan, bit her lower lip, and said softly.
Zhuge Fan's heart skipped a beat. He glanced at her and saw a pair of clear and sad eyes. His face heated up, and he hurriedly averted his gaze and looked up at the girl in the red hood.
His face immediately turned cold. Thinking of his good friend's death, his heart was filled with anger. He forcefully suppressed it and said coldly, "With your strength, you can't penetrate the Empress Tu Blackstone to hurt us. Not to mention you, even the Heart Realm Messenger beside you can't do it!
Unless he has a weapon that can penetrate a top-notch Void Artifact, otherwise, he can't hurt me at all! "
The girl in the red hood's face turned green and white, and she couldn't say anything. She knew that Zhuge Fan was telling the truth. The Empress Tu Blackstone was the essence of the earth, and its hardness was unimaginable.
When she saw Zhuge Fan's sneering face, she was so angry that she stomped her feet. Suddenly, she rolled her eyes, and the anger on her face immediately disappeared. It was replaced by a spring breeze smile. She chuckled and said, "Is that so?
I can't deal with you, but I can still deal with those people behind you. If you have the ability, you can use the Empress Tu Blackstone on your body to cover everyone. "As she spoke, her figure moved, and she rushed toward the people behind Zhuge Fan who were in formation.
Zhuge Fan was stunned for a moment, and his expression changed. He hurriedly pulled the empress and the empress toward the girl in the red hood. He waved his hand and thousands of lightning bolts struck the girl in the red hood.
After the smoke dissipated, the girl in the red hood wasn't affected at all. She was still smiling as she flew forward.
Zhuge Fan and the empress looked at each other. Both of their faces were a little ugly. Although they were not afraid of any harm under the protection of the Empress Tu Blackstone, their own attack power was limited after all. It was impossible for them to hurt the girl in the red hood.
At this time, the girl in the red hood had already rushed to the front of the many experts who were in formation. Everyone had their eyes closed, and they were fully immersed in the formation. Every bit of energy in their body was transmitted to the burly man through a special transmission, causing his energy to be inexhaustible.
The girl in the red hood stroked her chin and looked at these people with interest. However, she didn't neglect them. She chose a middle-aged man, and with a move of her body, she flashed over and floated in front of the middle-aged man. She smiled as she reached out and pressed her hand on his forehead between his eyebrows.
The middle-aged man's body trembled. Then, the girl in the red hood's finger stabbed into his forehead as if it was a soft cake. When she pulled it out, there was already a red hole on his forehead. Blood was flowing out of it, and his body suddenly fell down.
"B * stard!!"
Zhuge Fan's eyes were wide open in anger. He pounced over like a ferocious tiger, and his fist carried the power to shatter mountains as it surged out like a raging river.
The girl in the red hood chuckled and dodged nimbly. Her speed was several times faster than Zhuge Fan's, and it was impossible for him to catch up with her.
Like a red butterfly, she fluttered in front of another delicate and pretty girl. She stroked her chin and observed for a while. Then, she stretched out her hand and pointed at the girl's forehead, piercing through her skull.
"Ah ah ah … B * stard!!!"
When Zhuge Fan saw two lives being taken in the blink of an eye at the hands of this girl who was smiling so innocently, the anger in his chest stirred like a knife. He was so angry that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. A faint brown, mysterious and complicated mark appeared on his forehead. It shot out a gray ray of light that was as sharp as a needle, causing the surrounding air to ripple.
Behind him, the empress, who was always by his side, was shocked. Then, a glint flashed across her eyes, and she silently followed beside Zhuge Fan. In her heart, she recalled the unforgettable scene from back then.
Twenty years ago, her main body was guarding the empire, and she casually created thousands of doppelgangers to sneak into the mortal world to play. Some of them were poor beggars, some of them were daughters of rich families, some of them were dashing nobles, some of them were generals at the border, and so on.
By chance, one of her doppelgangers, who was at the pinnacle of the Semi-Divinity realm, went out for a mission and coincidentally met Zhuge Fan.
At that time, Zhuge Fan was also a Semi-Divinity realm expert. It was said that he was also following the orders of his master to search for a medicinal herb and bring it back to create a gene fluid for him to break through to the Divine Spirit realm.
Thus, the two of them traveled together.
Along the way, during a battle, she was shocked to discover that Zhuge Fan's body contained an extremely dense earth attribute. His body was innately compatible with the earth attribute, and he was able to learn any earth attribute secret manuals right away. For example, Earth Spike, Rock Dragon, Sandstorm, and so on.
After a deeper understanding, she discovered that Zhuge Fan's body actually contained a mysterious bloodline power. Based on her estimation, he was most likely the reincarnation of a powerful expert!
Thus, her main body personally made a move. After discussing with Zhuge Fan's master, she brought Zhuge Fan back to the empire and nurtured him.
With the foundation of this ancient empire that had stood tall for countless years, Zhuge Fan was able to break through from the Semi-Divinity realm to the God Emperor realm in just a month's time!
All kinds of precious elixirs, geno modification techniques, and geno fluids were used on Zhuge Fan's body.
This was the strength of a faction. In terms of nurturing their disciples, they had a unique advantage.
The sudden increase in strength did not leave any side effects on Zhuge Fan. Instead, through the personal nurturing of the Empress, his foundation became very stable.
After that, it took twenty years for Zhuge Fan to step into the Half-Epoch realm!
His strength was almost the same as hers.
Even with the Terra Blackstone that Zhuge Fan obtained in a fortuitous encounter, even she could not harm him. It could even be said that even the Voidsky Artifacts in the hands of the ten great hall masters could not harm him. They could only imprison him, an endless imprison!
During this process, she had used various methods to gradually discover the uniqueness of Zhuge Fan's body. She knew that he was indeed the reincarnation of a powerful expert. He had great luck and was able to come back from the jaws of death.
The fruit that she had planted in her previous life had blossomed in this life.
After many adventures, Zhuge Fan's strength gradually broke through the seal of the growth ring. In one of the most dangerous battles, Zhuge Fan erupted with unprecedented strength, and this mark flashed on his forehead.
It was also during that battle that Zhuge Fan obtained the Terra Blackstone.
After she returned, she searched through all the ancient information in the empire. From some yellowed goatskin scrolls, she found some fragmented information about this mark. However, she did not dare to make a conclusion.
Just as the empress was thinking about this, Zhuge Fan had already rushed towards the girl in the red hood, roaring as he pounced on her.
The girl in the red hood giggled. Her body flashed back and dodged again. She was about to attack again when suddenly, her ears moved. She tilted her head and looked at the end of the sky. There, there seemed to be a black mass of clouds moving quickly towards them.
Boom, boom, boom …
Rumbling sounds like muffled thunder came from thousands of miles away.
