I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 427 Earthly Authority
At this time, Zhang Chen looked at the ochre-colored ball in the Bagua furnace, wondering whether the light was experience points or skills.

“The best skill!”

Zhang Chen's heart beat fast when he thought of the earth-shaking methods used by the God of Backwoods in the past. Fortunately, the ball of light was not far away from him. Although the ball of light was in the Bagua furnace, it was just within his pickup range.

[A new skill has been discovered. Do you want to pick it up? ]

"Pick it up!" Zhang Chen gave the order directly.

As Zhang Chen issued the order, the khaki light ball turned into a stream of light and flew out. It was recorded on the Gold Finger page. Then the information on the Gold Finger page became blurred, and then a line of information appeared:
[New Skill (Ungraded): Earth Power (0/100000)]

[Note 1: You can control everything about the earth element within ten meters. You are the master of the earth element within ten meters.]

[Note 2: This skill comes from the Heart of the Earth.]

Zhang Chen looked at the Golden Finger page, his pupils shrank, and he suddenly took a breath of cold air: "Master the land within ten meters and become the master of the earth within ten meters?】

Is this skill strong?

It is not that strong, and you need 100,000 experience points before you can reach the next level. You will also be a big spender of gold in the future, but the meaning it represents is different.

Now I have control over the ten meters around me, but what about in the future?

That is the master, absolute control!
[Is it equipped? ]

The golden finger gave a hint, and Zhang Chen chose to assemble it without hesitation.

Then Zhang Chen felt a warm current washing over his body, and then he seemed to be enveloped by an earth-yellow light. Then Zhang Chen realized that he seemed to have a strange sense. All the soil and rocks within ten meters were under his control. As long as he had a thought in his mind, all the earth elements would operate according to his will.

Zhang Chen thought about it, and saw the stone cave twisting like flowing water. In an instant, it turned into regular rocks, which were square and perfect as if they had been carefully carved.

"Incredible!" Zhang Chen looked at the changed stone cave with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and then he took a step to walk away. However, when he walked ten meters, Zhang Chen stopped and said, "No! As soon as I walk ten meters, my authority will reach the limit. The golden finger will not give me any chance at all."

Zhang Chen shook his head and could only walk ten meters away again to try to activate his own skills.

As he thought about it, the walls within ten meters kept twisting and turning like plasticine. However, once Zhang Chen left the ten-meter range, the mud and sand would solidify, leaving no chance for Zhang Chen or Kaba Ge at all.

“When I use a skill, it is like forming a field with a radius of ten meters centered on me. Once it is used, this field will no longer move. No matter where I am in the field, the range I control will not change.” Zhang Chen was a little confused at this time.

"It seems that Golden Finger is not stupid." Zhang Chen sighed helplessly, and only hoped that all the loopholes could be filled in during future upgrades.

Zhang Chen wanted to upgrade, but when he looked at his own golden finger points, he found that they had returned to zero. Fortunately, there was still energy released from the Ascension Pool in his own devouring space. Zhang Chen directly activated the energy in the Ascension Pool, and the next moment he saw the energy from the Ascension Pool surging and converted into a steady stream of points.

Then Zhang Chen's mind moved, and his own golden finger was directly upgraded:

The information was blurred for a while, and then a line of information appeared:
[New Skill (Level 0): Earth Power (1000000/)]

[Note 1: You can control everything about the earth element within a fifty-meter radius. You are the ruler of the earth element within a fifty-meter radius.]

Zhang Chen's pupils shrank when he saw this. "One million experience points? Master all the land within 50 meters? There are probably very few people on land who can kill me, right? I can now proudly say that if Yangshen Zhenren doesn't show up in the future, no one can kill me."

Of course this does not include some of the weirdness of the law class.

Then Zhang Chen felt a strange feeling in his heart. All the mud and sand within fifty meters obeyed his call. As long as he thought about it, he could control these rocks at will.

"Can I cut off the dragon vein now?" Zhang Chen sensed his own skill domain, with a dangerous light in his eyes. If he used his skills to separate and sever the dragon vein of the Pingbian Palace...

Zhang Chen shuddered instantly and put all his thoughts back. Once this idea was implemented, he would be close to death, and the punishment from heaven would surely fall on him immediately.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen's mind, but he then restrained all of them. He took another look at the Bagua Furnace and saw that the Divine-Slaying Whip was still being refined. He was not in a hurry to take it out. At this time, the Divine-Slaying Whip was being refined and nourished by the Dragon Vein Qi, and there was still a lot of room for improvement.

When Zhang Chen walked out of the cave, he saw a warrior waiting outside the door. After seeing Zhang Chen come out, the warrior stepped forward and handed him a letter: "Sir, this is a letter from my master."

Zhang Chen took the letter and checked it carefully. After confirming that no one had tampered with it, he opened the letter. The letter was all blank and looked a little strange.

"Blank paper?" Zhang Chen looked the white paper up and down, but couldn't figure out anything, so he frowned.

"Did your master tell you anything?" Zhang Chen asked the soldier again. The soldier shook his head. Zhang Chen continued to study the blank letter. Just as he was puzzled, a light laugh suddenly rang out: "Why, you can't figure out the secret of this letter?"

Zhang Chen looked in the direction of the laughter. When he saw the source of the laughter, he was stunned: "Why is my sister back?"

"King Pingbian has blocked the Northland and set up a tight net in the Northland. No one is allowed to enter but not leave. I wanted to leave but was blocked by King Pingbian's palace." Xie Lingyun was dressed in men's clothes, his eyes full of helplessness.

Zhang Chen's pupils shrank when he heard this: "Sister is from the Inspection Office, and even sister cannot leave. The Pingbian Palace is so bold."

"They have always been very courageous!" Xie Lingyun said indignantly, "Unless the Inspection Office and the Pingbian Palace go to war, I will not be able to pass the level unless the Pingbian Palace uses the excuse of searching for evildoers."

Zhang Chen raised the letter in his hand and asked, "What is this letter?"

"I was just teasing you!" Xie Lingyun said, "I knew you would come, so I thought of teasing you a little."

Zhang Chen smiled bitterly. Xie Lingyun was really too naughty and Zhang Chen was helpless.

"Drink something?" Xie Lingyun smiled.

"Have a drink!" Zhang Chen nodded.

The two of them walked down the mountain, Zhang Chen followed Xie Lingyun, and they came to a tent palace of the Inspection Office. Then Xie Lingyun ordered people to set up a banquet: "I heard that the Pingbian Palace and Huang Tiandao are looking for you now?"

"The Prince of Pingbian wants to plot against me, but of course I won't allow it." Zhang Chen replied with a smile.

As he spoke, Zhang Chen poured wine for Xie Lingyun. Xie Lingyun said, "The Pingbian Palace is very ambitious. I don't know what they want to do. They actually caused such a big commotion. A million troops withdrew from the White Bone Great Wall, but they were not afraid that the demons would break through the White Bone Great Wall. It's really abominable."

Zhang Chen took a sip of wine and did not respond. He was also suspicious about King Pingbian's deployment of troops from the border. He felt that the other party was not just trying to transform into a dragon and there must be other things hidden. Unfortunately, he had no evidence.

He didn't dare to mislead Xie Lingyun. If he made a wrong judgment in such a matter, the consequences would be terrible.

"By the way, your brother and sister have already started practicing martial arts, but they have slowed down their practice of visualization for the time being. They are too young, and if they start to practice spiritual cultivation now, it may affect their physical development and cause them to die young." Xie Lingyun said.

Zhang Chen nodded upon hearing this: "They are still young, and with my protection, there is no rush for them to cultivate."

The two drank for a while, then Zhang Chen and Xie Lingyun said goodbye and left.

Looking at the drizzle outside, Xie Lingyun handed an oil-paper umbrella to Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen did not refuse. Holding the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, he walked quietly among the mountains. Looking at the misty mountains and rivers, he felt tranquility in his heart.

Just as all kinds of thoughts were flashing through Zhang Chen's mind, they arrived at the place where Chen Xu was repairing the house. He saw Chen Xu wearing a straw raincoat. Drops of rain were flowing down through the gaps in the raincoat, wetting the soil on the ground, forming small streams of water that left a trail of traces.

"Stop looking, it's time to eat!" Zhang Chen placed the food box in front of Chen Xu. The next moment, the Earth Power was activated, and the soil on the ground rolled. In the blink of an eye, a small house made entirely of stone appeared, wrapping the two of them.

Standing in the house, Chen Xu looked at Zhang Chen in bewilderment, then looked at the house, his eyes full of disbelief. He pointed at Zhang Chen with a look of astonishment:

"Is this your method?"

"How is it?" Zhang Chen asked with a smile.

Chen Xu took a deep breath when he heard that. He could only hold up a finger to show his awesomeness, then took the food box and started to eat.

There are steamed buns and pickles in the lunch box. The weather is still a little cool now, so it is not suitable for greasy food.

"How is it? Did you find anything?" Zhang Chen asked as he looked at Chen Xu who was eating voraciously.

"Yes!" Chen Xu said firmly, "The Feng Shui formation originally had no flaws. It's just that for some reason, the Northern Land Ancestral Vein began to fluctuate and its energy suddenly decreased. At that moment, I was able to see some flaws."

Zhang Chen smiled when he heard this. He knew why the earth veins were fluctuating. It was because of his own Bagua Furnace and Divine Whip.

"Brother Chen, you are really capable. Your Feng Shui can be said to be a masterpiece of nature." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Chen Xu smiled proudly: "Brother, this is what we do, we are professionals. Besides, I have trained my third eye now, if I still can't figure out something, then I will just pack up and go home to farm, why am I still hanging around outside?"

Chen Xu seemed very proud when talking about his specialty. Zhang Chen was definitely not as good as him in this area.
