More than a month has passed, Li Zhen's speed of absorbing battle qi is getting faster and faster, and suddenly Li Zhen opened his eyes, and the condensed battle qi around his body can begin to escape, and Qiankun has cultivated to the third layer, although the realm has not improved, but Li Zhen can really feel that the battle qi in his body has been condensed several times more than before.

Li Zhen preliminarily estimated that according to his cultivation speed this time, he should be able to cultivate the four corresponding exercises of gold, wood, water and fire to the third level in half a year, and his strength can also go further, without wasting time on other things, Li Zhen began to cultivate again.

To the east of Tianshu City, there is a majestic palace, the colored crystal glazed tiles are shining dazzlingly in the sun, in a large hall, two golden dragons on the huge purple cloud wood pillar are vivid, as if they want to take off, on the staircase of several layers in front of the main hall, a gold lacquer carved dragon throne is placed, a majestic middle-aged man sits on the throne, the headdress is adorned with a purple gold crown, wearing a purple brocade dragon suit, a woman in a crown dress stands below, neither of them speaks.

After a long time, the middle-aged man sighed deeply and said: "Rou'er, I know that you are unwilling, but for the sake of the empire, I can only wronged you, but fortunately, they postponed it for three years." ”

"Since I promised you at the beginning, I naturally won't break my promise, is this what I was summoned here today?" The woman standing under the palace was naturally Shangguan Rou, and sitting on the throne was Shangguan Tianyue, the emperor of the Qionghai Empire.

"This matter is just to tell you, you haven't been back for a long time, do you really hate me so much?"

"No hate, all that remains between us now is an unfulfilled promise, and the rest is long gone. ”

"Hey, your temper is exactly the same as your mother's, if Tong'er wants, she can come back at any time, and I will use the power of the empire to try to find a way to cure her. ”

"No need, Tong'er is already married, as for her treatment of her, you don't have to worry about it. After Shangguan Rou finished speaking, he turned around and left the main hall.

Shangguan Tianyue looked at the back of Shangguan Rou leaving, a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes, and after a long time, he said to this air: "Did I do something wrong back then?"

"Your Majesty was also helpless back then, no one could have thought that person would have cultivated the Demon Eye and saw the exquisite battle body of the second princess, if it weren't for the second princess, I'm afraid they would have already started to do it to us. An old voice came from the void.

"Hmph, they really have a big appetite, they want to annex us in one fell swoop and promote us to a third-level force, but it's a pity that now we can only rely on Rou'er to survive, I hope my father can break through in these three years," Shangguan Tianyue suddenly asked: "Can you break through in three years?"

"It's hard to say, I've been stuck in this step for several years, and if I want to go further, I can only look at chance. ”

"Rou'er said that Tong'er is going to be married, why haven't I heard of this matter all along?"

"I don't know the specifics of this matter, but Your Majesty should be most sorry for your little princess over the years, right? If you didn't want the second princess to marry your sister back then, you wouldn't have wronged the little princess for so many years. ”

"Forget it, I'll let people check it, if it's really someone Xiao Qi likes, I won't force it. ”

Unconsciously, Li Zhen has been in retreat for more than half a year, after a fluctuation in the cultivation room, Li Zhen slowly opened his eyes, his face showed a touch of joy, he has now cultivated all the four exercises to the third layer, and his cultivation has also successfully broken through to the eight-star battle king, soon Li Zhen calmed down from the joy of the breakthrough, and began to think about whether to refine the thunder bead now, if Feng Ningxue is here, he can ask for opinions.

Thinking of Feng Ningxue, Li Zhen crossed a touch of sadness in his heart, the dragon girl appeared once and did not appear, Li Zhen got up and cleaned up, and then walked towards the Ministry of Resources, Li Zhen had checked it on the identity card before, and there was indeed no medicinal herb or pill that could restore the soul among the items that could be exchanged, now go and ask in person to see if there are any clues.

Li Zhen came to the Ministry of Resources, there are not many colleges here, because what do you need to exchange, you can know it on the identity card, you only need to come here to exchange it directly with the contribution value, Li Zhen came to the counter, the person in charge must be a slightly cute female student, the female student saw Li Zhen arrive, and asked politely: "What does this senior brother want to exchange?"

Li Zhen asked, "I would like to ask if there are any elixirs or medicinal materials that nourish the divine soul." ”

The female student looked at Li Zhen and made sure that Li Zhen was not the one she was happy with, and said again: "No, even if there is, it will be exchanged for the first time, and it will still be your turn." ”

"Is there any news on that?"

"Nope. The female student said impatiently, and began to sort out the things on the counter again, Li Zhen sighed secretly after hearing it, turned around and walked out, and just walked to the door, he suddenly heard the female student say again: "There is a message, but there is no difference between you know and don't know." ”

Li Zhen had a glimmer of hope in his heart, and hurriedly said, "I'm still bothered to tell you." ”

"You should have heard of the Imperial Ranking Battle in half a year, the reward for the first place in the Imperial Ranking Battle is a Soul Infant Flower, the Soul Infant Flower is a rare treasure of heaven and earth, if you let the alchemist refine it into an elixir, it will be at least a six-rank elixir, but you know what, with your strength, even the qualifications to represent the empire are not enough, so I advise you not to be too ambitious. ”

"Thank you for informing me!" Li Zhen said, turning and walking outside.

The female student looked at Li Zhen's back and shook her head secretly, and an old man walked out from the side and said, "What did he exchange just now?"

"Elder, he didn't exchange anything, and asked if there was any elixir or medicinal herbs to nourish the divine soul, and I said no, and then informed him that the first prize in the Imperial Ranking Battle was the Soul Infant Flower. ”

The old man listened to the words of the female student and turned to leave, and a trace of an inexplicable smile appeared in his eyes at the moment of turning around.

On the way back, Li Zhen thought that for Shangguan Rou, Li Zhen's goal was to be the first, but now he learned that the reward for the first place turned out to be the Soul Infant Flower, and he had another desire for the first place in the imperial ranking battle.

Back in the cultivation room, Li Zhen's plate sat down, with his current cultivation, at most he got the quota to fight, if he wanted to get the first place, he was far from enough now, there was still half a year, no matter how hard he worked, he could only reach the peak of the battle king, there are only two ways to quickly increase his combat power, the first is to cultivate the second type of Tianshuo and the third type of thunder of the Qiankun Sword Codex, and the second is to refine the thunder bead by himself, if he awakens the thunder attribute battle qi, his combat power will increase several times.

Li Zhenzhi chose to cultivate the Qiankun Sword Code first, because there was uncertainty in refining the thunder beads, Tianshuo's mental method continued to come to his heart, and a fierce sword qi filled the entire cultivation room, at this moment, Li Zhen seemed to form one with Han Xue, and the terrifying aura was constantly swirling, if anyone could see Li Zhen, they would find that at this moment, the flame mark on Li Zhen's eyebrows turned into a small white sword form, exuding a power that made people's hearts palpitate.

Unconsciously, more than a month has passed, and an earth-shattering sword aura rushed into the sky in Li Zhen's cultivation room, just in an instant, this sword qi disappeared without a trace, and the elders in the Hall of Elders were discussing something, and suddenly everyone suddenly stood up, and when they went to induce, there was no abnormality, and Shangguan Siyuan, the elder of the Criminal Law, said: "Since everyone has sensed it, it is not an illusion, what is it? Could it be that who cultivated the forbidden technique?"

Shangguan Shuyi frowned and thought for a while: "It can be felt by all of us, it is extraordinary, but now it is impossible to determine where it appeared, since there is no way to check it, let's put it first, those boys are working extremely hard during this time, I just hope that a miracle will happen." The rest of the hall nodded in agreement.

Li Zhen slowly opened his eyes, and looked at the cold snow in his hand in surprise, although he has not yet used Tianshuo, but he feels that the power of Tianshuo is several times stronger than the first type of shadow killing, the advantage of shadow killing is the speed of explosion, and Tianshuo is a strong crush, and the consumption of battle qi is more terrifying, and this time not only cultivated the second type of Tianshuo, but also comprehended fifty percent of the sword intent, which can be said to be an unexpected gain, the sword intent cannot be cultivated, and can only rely on his own comprehension ability.

Soon Li Zhen calmed down and continued to cultivate thunder, the third type of thunder of the Qiankun Sword Code is different from the first two types, if you cultivate thunder, regardless of whether you can comprehend the thunder attribute or not, you can use this style to attract the power of heavenly thunder to kill the opponent.

Li Zhen concentrated and calmed down again, and began to run the third type of thunder is the mental method, when Li Zhen entered the cultivation state, a red figure appeared in front of Li Zhen, but Li Zhen didn't seem to feel her existence, what appeared in front of Li Zhen was the dragon girl Ao Xiangxuan, Ao Xiangxuan kept a lot of Li Zhen's cultivation room, pursed her lips, and instantly lost interest.

Turning around, as if only Li Zhen in cultivation could attract her attention, she slowly squatted down and dragged her chin to carefully look at Li Zhen, and said to herself: "This guy is quite good-looking, no wonder that woman likes him, but this is too weak, hey, why did I fall into his hands." After speaking, he turned into a red light and disappeared into the cold snow sword.

Li Zhen has been cultivating thunder for a month, as if he is in a chaotic space, looking at the lightsaber full of thunder and lightning in front of him, every time he almost caught him in his hand, every time he failed, Li Zhen slowly opened his eyes, and felt a little depressed in his heart, every time he almost could cultivate thunder, but in the end he failed.

Sweeping away his depressed mood, Li Zhen had to reconsider, now he can't blindly cultivate thunder, he can only give up for the time being, refine the thunder bead first, and hope that his courage will not be too bad.
