Duanmu Xingling still looks like she is only fourteen or fifteen years old, with a petite and exquisite figure, plump peaks, slender waist, exquisite facial features, a pair of round and beautiful eyes, and fine eyelashes that are long and curled. It seems like I will always stay at the age of a girl.
She put her hands behind her back, twitched her bright red lips slightly, showed a charming look, and said: "We haven't seen each other for only a month, why do I feel a breath of ice in you?"
Duanmu Xingling originally has a constitution of ice and is very sensitive to the air of ice.
Although Zhang Ruochen refined the Ice Vein Pill, he had not completely integrated the ice energy into the true energy, so he was noticed by Duanmu Xingling.
Zhang Ruochen did not answer her, but stared at her carefully and said, "Senior Sister Duanmu, your cultivation seems to have improved even more since you left Wushi Academy."
"Your powers of observation are amazing"
Duanmu Xingling's eyes rolled around and he said with a smile: "The Eight Desolate Skills I practiced broke through the third level and reached another mysterious realm. With my current strength, even if I am not as fast as Sister Chen, Her combat prowess will never be inferior to hers.¡±
Suddenly, Duanmu Xingling raised his eyelids, stared at Zhang Ruochen, and said jokingly: "I heard that you recently went to Qianshui County, where you defeated the geniuses of various countries with Broken Sword, won the first place in the sword competition, and even competed with Qianshui County. The most beautiful Princess Yanchen is engaged."
Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly and told her the whole story of the incident without hiding anything from her.
After listening to Zhang Ruochen's words, Duanmu Xingling nodded gently and said: "So that's the case, then you have no choice. As long as you become the inner palace disciple of Wushi Academy, even Qianshui County King will not dare to do so easily." Kill you. Besides, Sister Chen is a peerless beauty. If you can marry her, you won¡¯t lose anything."
"Now the entire Wushi Academy students know about this. Many people are very envious of you. Of course, many people are jealous, and some are even ready to kill you."
Zhang Ruochen seemed fearless and said: "Who wants to kill me?"
"Xun Guihai."
Duanmu Xingling said with a smile: "Xun Guihai has already said that if you dare to take the intermediate ruins exploration exam, he will definitely take your life. Xun Guihai had prepared gifts and went to Qianshui County to propose marriage, but you were If you take the lead, you don¡¯t know, he will be driven crazy.¡±
Zhang Ruochen said: "I expected Xun Guihai to hate me. After all, Senior Sister Huang was trying to use me as a shield. Given my situation at the time, I had to block her arrows."
Duanmu Xingling's face became serious and said: "Xun Guihai is the fourteenth person on the Mysterious List. He is more powerful than you think. You must not take it lightly."
"It is said that he once killed a helmsman in the middle stage of the Earthly Realm of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect. It was that battle that made him famous and became a man of the hour in the outer palace of Wu City Academy. With his strength, if he wanted to To kill you, all it takes is one move."
"Soldiers will block it, and water will cover it. It's impossible for me not to take the intermediate ruins exploration exam just because of his words." Zhang Ruochen said.
After thinking for a while, Zhang Ruochen said again: "Senior Sister Duanmu, you have been preparing for the intermediate ruins exploration exam for a long time. You should know the intermediate ruins very well. Can you tell me what you need to prepare in advance before entering the intermediate ruins?"
Duanmu Xingling blinked his eyes, moved slightly closer to Zhang Ruochen, and said, "Sister Chen never told you."
Zhang Ruochen said: "Senior Sister Huang and I are only engaged in name. In fact, my relationship with her is not as close as outsiders imagine. At least in my opinion, my relationship with Senior Sister Duanmu is closer."
Obviously, what Zhang Ruochen just said was quite useful. After Duanmu Xingling heard it, the smile on his face became brighter and he said: "You are still good at talking, but I thought you had a fianc¨¦e and forgot about me, senior sister. Then I Let me tell you from the beginning. First, you must know the origin of those ruins."
"Kunlun Realm has a history of hundreds of millions of years, starting from the ancient times, then to the ancient times, ancient times, medieval times, and modern times. In the eternal river of time, countless heroes were born, the darkest and bloody wars occurred, and tens of thousands of The prosperous age when Saint Qi emerged."
"In the history of Kunlun Realm, I don't know how many semi-saints and saints were born. However, now, they have all passed away, leaving only some ruins and former residences."
"The intelligence agency of Wushi Qianzhuang is spread throughout the Kunlun world, and all the relics of semi-saints and saints in history are recorded in the sacred relics handbook."
"According to the degree of danger of those ruins and the chance of treasures appearing, the ruins are divided into multiple levels."
"Actually, the cultivation level of the disciples from the outer palace, even if they just go to the elementary ruins to experience??There may also be life-threatening consequences. Therefore, Wu City Academy only allows the top ten outer palace students from the four colleges to take the intermediate ruins exploration exam. You have to listen clearly, it's just an exploration test, not a practice. "
Zhang Ruochen said: "What is the difference between exploration and experience?"
Duanmu Xingling smiled and said: "The meaning of exploration is that we only need to enter the intermediate ruins to take a look and find precious treasures. If you can't defeat them, you can escape. However, if you want to gain experience, you must complete the tasks assigned by the academy. , the degree of danger is even greater. Generally speaking, only the masters among the inner palace disciples will take the initiative to experience in the intermediate ruins."
Duanmu Xingling added: "There are only two intermediate-level ruins within the entire thirty-six counties of Tianmo Ridge. One of them is deep in Tianmo Ridge, called Chikong Secret Mansion. It is said that Chikong Secret Mansion is located underground Deep inside is the holy palace where the four-winged earth dragon, the master of Tianmo Ridge, once lived."
"The cultivation of the four-winged earth dragon is comparable to that of a saint among human warriors. When it was alive, it was extremely rampant, dominating a territory of 100,000 miles in radius, and devouring a human city of humans every time it ate."
"Even Qianshui County, which is now a superior county, had to pay tribute to the four-winged earth dragon every year, sending spiritual crystals, silver coins, elixirs, and blood food. Every year, Qianshui County had to pay tribute to the four-winged earth dragon every year. Send millions of human slaves to Tian Mo Ridge to serve as food for the four-winged earth dragon. If we don¡¯t send them, then more humans will die in Qianshui County.¡±
"Five hundred years ago, the arrogant four-winged earth dragon finally angered Queen Chi Yao, who had just ascended the throne at that time. Queen Chi Yao gave an order to dispatch the army of the First Central Empire to encircle Tianmo Ridge and kill the four-winged earth dragon."
"In order to kill the four-winged earth dragon and the powerful beasts in the Demon Ridge, the First Central Empire fought an earth-shattering battle in the Red Sky Secret Mansion."
"In that battle, a total of two half-saints from the human race died, but they killed seven semi-saint-level barbaric beasts. Even the four-winged earth dragon died in the Red Sky Secret Mansion. All the barbarian beasts above the semi-saint level were killed After death, the once fierce place of death has become much peaceful."
"Later, Wu Shi Xuegong stationed in Tianmo Ridge to help the First Central Empire suppress the remaining barbaric beasts in Tianmo Ridge. At the same time, some human cities that were originally just on the edge of Tianmo Ridge continued to devour the territory where the barbarians lived. In a hundred years of development, a country was formed. Your ancestor, the founder of Yunwu County, rose up at that time. Yunwu County was also established at that time."
Zhang Ruochen said: "In other words, five hundred years ago, the current territory of the thirty-six counties in Tianmoling was all barren mountains and wild ridges, ruled by four-winged earth dragons and savage beasts. After five hundred years of development, human beings , from a few scattered cities and villages at the beginning, it developed into thirty-six counties outside Tianmo Ridge."
Duanmu Xingling nodded and said with a smile: "The total territory of the thirty-six counties now is only one-fifth of the territory of Tianmo Ridge. However, with the strength of the human race, in a few hundred years, there will definitely be By completely devouring the territory of the barbarian beasts in Tianmo Ridge, there may be seventy-two counties and one hundred and eight counties. It may also be completely unified and become a superior county as powerful as Qianshui County. country."
Zhang Ruochen said: "Besides the Chikong Secret Mansion, there is another intermediate-level ruins."
Duanmu Xingling said: "Another intermediate-level ruins are in the Tongming River, located at the bottom of the river. It is said that the four-winged earth dragon built a dragon palace at the bottom of the Tongming River, because the four-winged earth dragon set up a large formation outside the dragon palace. Therefore, only warriors below the Tianji realm can enter the Dragon Palace. If you try to forcefully break the formation from the outside, the Dragon Palace will be destroyed."
"For hundreds of years, many warriors have gone in to explore, but out of ten people who went in, only two or three could come out. The underwater Dragon Palace is more dangerous than the Chikong Secret Mansion." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel .com
