In the mausoleum, Zi Lingsha and Kong Hyun-hui stood anxiously outside the cold pond. Their almond-shaped eyes were filled with worry as they looked at the withered ancient tree in the center.
Suddenly, the ancient tree flickered with a few rays of light.
Kong Hyun-hui was slightly delighted. "Qin Shi's breathing has stabilized. Did he succeed?"
She stared at Qin Shi. Qin Shi was sitting cross-legged on the pistil. His chest was rising and falling rhythmically. It was obvious that he had already swallowed the Wushen Fruit. Zi Lingsha heaved a sigh of relief and nodded. "Yes, that's more like him."
However, after a while, the two girls frowned again. "That's strange. Didn't he succeed?
Why hasn't he woken up after so long? "
Zi Lingsha's pearly white teeth trembled. Suddenly, in her almond-shaped eyes, she felt a familiar fluctuation from Qin Shi's surroundings. That power was like a trapped beast that broke out of its cage. It was so powerful that it made people tremble in fear. She whispered with slight surprise, "Could it be that he wants to use that?"
"That?
What's that? "Kong Hyun-hui asked curiously.
Zi Lingsha remained silent for a while. She didn't respond to Kong Hyun-hui. However, she clenched her jade-like hands tightly and revealed some nervousness.
"Shi Tou, you have to think it through. This isn't a joke …!" She called out in her heart.
Slap!
At this moment, a jade-like hand pressed on her fragrant shoulder. Kong Hyun-hui smiled gently. "What's wrong with you?
You've always trusted him the most. Why are you hesitating now? "
"I …!"
Without giving Zi Lingsha a chance to speak, Kong Hyun-hui interrupted her. "Although I don't know what you're talking about and how dangerous it is, but … we should trust him, shouldn't we?
After all, he has always been able to bring us miracles. "
Hearing this, Zi Lingsha fell silent. Suddenly, she shook her head in a self-deprecating manner. "Yes … we should trust him. After all, his name is Qin Shi."
Bang!
Suddenly, at this moment, a loud sound rang out from outside the cave, causing the two girls to furrow their brows. Soon after, when the two girls turned around, they saw a figure in a sorry state flying in from afar. Haoyue's entire body was dyed red, and she continuously spat out a few mouthfuls of blood.
"Haoyue?"
The two ladies hurriedly went forward to help him up, and when they saw the injuries on his body, they could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Kong Hyun-hui trembled slightly. "How ruthless! Who did this?"
"It's, it's the Dragon Regiment …" Haoyue forced herself to say.
Hearing this, the two girls frowned slightly. Zi Lingsha's eyes instantly turned cold. She looked at Kong Hyun-hui and said, "Hehe, it seems like we can't just trust him."
Kong Hyun-hui naturally understood what Zi Lingsha was implying. Even if Qin Shi was very capable, if he was disturbed at such a critical moment, his internal breath would be in disorder and he might suffer from Qigong Deviation.
This was a great taboo on the path of cultivation.
However, she said with a gloomy expression, "Why did the Dragon Regiment come to you?"
"It's a long story. We can't let them disturb Qin Shi." At this point, Zi Lingsha paused for a moment, and her almond-shaped eyes also showed a rare solemn expression.
Kong Hyun-hui nodded with a solemn expression. "However, if we want to stop the Dragon Regiment with just the three of us, I'm afraid … it's too difficult."
As the daughter of the Wasteland Region's Territorial Lord, she naturally knew how powerful the Dragon Regiment was in the eight regions.
Just Zhao Longyuan alone was enough to be in the top ten of the God Territory Ceremony.
After a moment of silence, Zi Lingsha suddenly said, "I have an idea, but … you have to help me hold them back first …"
"How long?"
"One hour."
"One hour?"
Kong Hyun-hui exclaimed in disbelief. Holding off the strongest team of the eight regions for one hour? Wasn't this a joke?
She thought that perhaps in the entire Ceremony of the Gods, only those two monstrous geniuses were able to accomplish this, right?
They were the Frigid Lady of Blue Snow Sect and the Thousand Mountains Lady of Purgatory.
Zi Lingsha was helpless. She also knew that asking Zi Lingsha to hold off the Dragon Regiment for one hour was too rude, but she really had no other choice …
But just as she was about to speak, Kong Xianhui suddenly took a step forward. She could see that she was very nervous, her jade-like hands were trembling. However, she still pretended to be relaxed and smiled, "One hour, leave it to me. But after that, I'll have to rely on you."
Zi Lingsha was taken aback, and then nodded gratefully.
"You don't have to be like this. We just don't want anything to happen to him."
Kong Hyun-hui waved her hand. Then, she recalled what Qin Shi had done for her in the Chaotic Realm a year ago. She couldn't help but be lost in thought. "Moreover, compared to what he did for me that year, it's really insignificant."
She stepped forward, her jade-like hands firmly holding the emerald, dancing lightly.
But suddenly, wild laughter echoed in the cave.
"Haha, you want to hold me for one hour?
Laughable, laughable, truly laughable. Quickly, let me have a look. It's that blind fellow! "
Accompanied by unrestrained laughter, a two meter tall tough man walked into the cave. His upper body was naked, and on his chest, there was a vivid and lifelike green dragon tattoo. His shoulders were covered with golden scapulae, and on his shoulder blade, he carried a two meter long axe. The axe flashed with resplendent light, and his entire person gave off a strong sense of impact, it was too shocking.
Seeing that tough man, the three of them almost lost their voices.
"Zhao Longyuan!"
"Hmm?"
Zhao Longyuan was taken aback. Then, he looked around and saw the three of them. "Eh, isn't this the trash that I sent flying just now?"
Then, he shifted his gaze to Zi Lingsha. His gaze paused on her, and he couldn't help but lick his chapped lips. "What a beautiful woman …"
However, to be able to make it this far in the eight regions, he naturally wasn't the kind of person who would lust after beauty. He must have some ability, so he only praised her and didn't say much. On the other hand, when he looked at Kong Hyun-hui, his expression turned serious. "Daughter of the Desolate Region?
I didn't expect you to be here. "
"Haha, Zhao Longyuan, long time no see."
"Indeed, long time no see." Zhao Longyuan nodded. "I didn't expect to see you here either. Where's Yu Wenshang?
Last time, he was lucky to win against me. I still want to settle the score with him. "
"He didn't participate in the Deity Realm Ceremony this time."
Kong Hyun-hui shook her head, and her beautiful eyes became heavy. "Zhao Longyuan, my friend and I found this place first. Since we all know each other, why don't you retreat with your Dragon Regiment?"
"Retreat?"
Zhao Longyuan was stunned, and then he laughed wildly. "That won't do. My brothers and I spent so much effort to find this place, and you want me to retreat just because you say so?
Then, I also want to see if there's any treasure that I care about here. "
At this moment, the Dragon Regiment army had already entered the cave. There were more than 500 of them, and all of them were at the pinnacle of the Heaven Realm. The terrifying deterrence made the three of them feel heavy.
After saying that, Zhao Longyuan pointed at the disciple beside him. "You, go take a look and see what treasure is inside."
"Yes!" The disciple of the Dragon Regiment nodded, and then walked into the depths of the cave with his head held high.
Seeing this, the three of them became nervous. This place was the turning point of the cold lake. If they passed this turning point, even if the Martial God Tree withered, it would definitely be discovered by the Dragon Regiment. At that time, Qin Shi would be in danger.
Thinking of this, Kong Hyun-hui subconsciously took a step forward, and reached out to stop the disciple of the Dragon Regiment. "No!"
Bang!
However, suddenly, a majestic sharp light rose from the ground. If they didn't see it with their own eyes, perhaps no one would believe that Zhao Longyuan, with his huge physique, could display such godly speed. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the front of Kong Hyun-hui, and the terrifying giant axe fell down, splitting the ground and stopping Kong Hyun-hui.
He smirked at Kong Hyun-hui. "Hehe, virtuous, I say, it's not good for you to be like this."
"Zhao Longyuan, you …!" Kong Hyun-hui anxiously and angrily pointed at Zhao Longyuan, and shouted in a low voice.
Pa!
Suddenly, Zhao Longyuan grabbed Kong Hyun-hui's wrist, and smiled at her indifferently. "Hehe, you better control your temper. This is the God Territory Ceremony, not the Wasteland Territory. Even if I kill you here, the Wasteland Territory can't do anything to me. Moreover, this is such a remote place, I'm afraid that even if you die, no one will know."
Hearing this, Haoyue frowned. Zhao Longyuan's words were full of sarcasm. Even if he killed Kong Hyun-hui, no one would know. Didn't that mean that he was already a dead man?
He clenched his teeth and was about to fly into a rage, but suddenly, he was stopped by Zi Lingsha. Zi Lingsha shook her head at him with her beautiful eyes.
Kong Hyun-hui also quietened down. Only then did Zhao Longyuan chuckle. "But don't worry. After all, we are friends. As long as you don't move, I won't kill you."
After saying this, he gave the disciple a look. "What are you waiting for? Go in and take a look. If there's no treasure, let's not waste any more time here. A chaotic battle has already started in the depths of the tomb."
"Yes!"
The disciple answered obediently. He immediately stood up and rushed into the cave. When they saw his figure disappear at the turn, the three of them were filled with despair.
This time, they couldn't hide it anymore.
Zi Lingsha looked at the three of them and communicated with them with her eyes.
Suddenly, the disciple rushed out in a panic. The joy and disbelief in his eyes completely made the three of them lose hope.
Seeing the disciple's appearance, Zhao Longyuan frowned and yelled, "What's the rush? Tell me what's inside."
The disciple took a few deep breaths in joy, then said excitedly, "Big, big brother, it's, it's a Martial God Tree inside!"
"Martial God Tree?" Zhao Longyuan trembled slightly and stood up. "What did you say?
It's a Martial God Tree inside? "
"That's right, and it's a Martial God Tree that has just bloomed!" The disciple could not control his emotions and raised his voice. "Big brother, we're rich!"
"The heavens are on our side, the heavens are on our side."
Zhao Longyuan never expected the Martial God Tree, which was called a Martial God Tree by the world, to be inside. He waved his hand at the Dragon Regiment and yelled, "Let's go!"
Seeing this, Kong Hyun-hui clenched her teeth in panic and yelled, "Zhao Longyuan!!!
That Martial God Tree is ours! "
He turned around and smiled coldly at Kong Hyun-hui. "Yours?
Virtuous, you're in the wrong. Why didn't you share such a treasure with us? Now, this Martial God Tree is ours. "
After saying this, he turned around and rushed into the cave without looking back. His footsteps quickened in excitement.
"Do it!"
