I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 823: The altar is about to be completed, undercurrents surge

Zhang Chen stood in the distance, looking at the altar in front of him. He tilted his head to look at the altar in front of him, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes:
"It's really strange that the Queen Mother of the West wants me to build an altar. After practicing to the level of the Queen Mother of the West, what else does she need to offer sacrifices to? She is already one with the Tao. What else in this world is worthy of the Queen Mother of the West offering sacrifices to?"

Zhang Chen showed a puzzled look, wondering why the Queen Mother of the West would spend so much time and effort building the altar.

"How strange." Zhang Chen was secretly surprised, but he didn't know the reason. However, he knew there must be a big secret.

As for what secret it was, Zhang Chen didn't dare to explore it. If he found out something he shouldn't know, he would be killed.

He also has to survive in this era as long as possible, and then seize the magical skills in the Queen Mother of the West's library.

Zhang Chen put away the drawing in his hand, then looked at it with the compass in his left hand. Two peach pits appeared in his right hand at some point and turned slowly in his palm. Zhang Chen held them in his palm and played with them.

Zhang Chen was just about to induce the birth of these two peach pits, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity for the time being. After all, he was always in Kunlun Mountain, under the nose of the Queen Mother of the West. It would be bad if he caused any trouble.

The Queen Mother of the West has great magical powers. What if she noticed that he had helped the peach tree to grow? How would he explain it?

"According to myths and legends, there are three thousand years old, six thousand years old, and nine thousand years old peach trees of the Queen Mother of the West, with three thousand trees in each category. But myths and legends are myths and legends after all, and they cannot be taken as the truth. We can't do everything according to myths and legends, otherwise we don't know what kind of trouble will be caused." Zhang Chen slowly stuffed two peach pits into his sleeves. He knew clearly in his heart that even if he gave birth to a peach tree and grew peaches, he would not dare to eat them.

The lifespans of all the golden-armored gods are recorded, and the Queen Mother of the West must have a record of that in her heart. If I steal the peaches and extend my lifespan, can I hide it from the Queen Mother of the West?

How to explain the increased lifespan out of thin air? After all, Queen Mother of the West is not a fool.

Just as Zhang Chen was thinking countless thoughts in his mind, the compass in his hand vibrated in the southeast direction. Zhang Chen quickly ran towards the southeast. After running for three hours, he traveled hundreds of miles and arrived at the place where the altar was built.

"Greetings, sir." A divine general in golden armor stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Zhang Chen.

"The mausoleum you built before has flaws. It was built incorrectly! Quickly find the mistakes and repair them." Zhang Chen ordered.

The golden-armored general was stunned when he heard this, then quickly took out the drawings that Zhang Chen had divided into pieces, and asked his strong men to check for any missing parts according to the drawings.

Zhang Chen on the side was also not idle, helping everyone to find and fill in the gaps. Zhang Chen had been comprehending the formation diagram for hundreds of years and had already memorized it. It only took him half an hour to find out the mistakes and omissions in the formation diagram. Then he ordered everyone to fix the mistakes and returned to the center to continue comprehending and deducing the mysteries of the formation.

This is Zhang Chen's daily life. He divides the formation of the entire altar into modules, and then asks the strong men to build them step by step. If there are mistakes or omissions, Zhang Chen will check and correct them.

This has been Zhang Chen’s daily routine for hundreds of years. He usually tinkers with the formation and takes time out to comprehend the principles of formation.

"It's just that I always feel like something is not right today. There's an inexplicable sense of crisis looming over my heart." Zhang Chen only felt that his soul was beating from time to time. This sign was not a good sign. He felt like a disaster was about to happen.

"But if I stay in Kunlun Mountain, what crisis will happen?" Zhang Chen couldn't figure out the reason, so he could only endure it silently and continue to build the formation.

However, as the formation was being built, the bad feeling in Zhang Chen's heart grew stronger and stronger, and even his own soul began to beat more and more frequently.

"Lao Deng, you have been sleeping for so long, why don't you wake up quickly?" Zhang Chen realized that something was wrong and asked the mark of the devil in his soul.

Since the advent of the mysterious era, the Demon Mark has fallen into complete silence, and the transformation of the Great Free Demon has never been completed. Zhang Chen now does not know where the crisis comes from and can only disturb the sleeping Great Free Demon.

Unfortunately, Zhang Chen called out several times but there was no response from the Great Freedom Demon, so he had no choice but to give up. After Old Deng swallowed the head, he fell into a deep sleep, leaving Zhang Chen a little helpless.

Zhang Chen is now in this mysterious era and doesn't even have anyone to talk to.

"It's missing a hand! It seems like it's missing a crutch." Zhang Chen complained. Now he could only rely on himself to observe where the disaster came from.

Just when Zhang Chen was thinking about it, the mark of the Creation Fire Spirit in his soul suddenly jumped. Zhang Chen's heart moved: "Why is the mark of the Creation Fire Spirit jumping at this time? Did something happen to him? Or did the Queen Mother of the West find out that I refined the Creation Fire Spirit and wanted to find the person who refined the Creation Fire Spirit? That's why I feel like a disaster is coming?"

Zhang Chen's mind was full of thoughts, and while he was thinking, the mark of the Creation Fire Spirit became more and more active in his soul. Seeing this, Zhang Chen hesitated for a moment, then looked towards the direction of the Queen Mother of the West's bedroom: "If the Queen Mother of the West finds out, she will track me down sooner or later, and then I'm afraid I won't be able to escape death. In this case, I might as well take the initiative. I will take the initiative to go to the Creation Fire Spirit to see what's going on. If I take the Creation Fire Spirit, I may still have a chance to escape from the Queen Mother of the West." Thinking of this, Zhang Chen left the altar and came to a deserted place. He flashed and activated the escape technique, and as he held the power of the five elements, all things of the five elements in the world were in his escape light.

Moreover, he was not worried that the Queen Mother of the West would notice his escape technique. The dragon veins destroy all things. No matter how high the Queen Mother of the West's cultivation level was, she would not be able to detect Zhang Chen who was performing the escape technique in the dragon veins.

As Zhang Chen gained power, he could use the Five Elements Escape Technique to travel through dragon veins.

Zhang Chen came to the place where the Creation Fire Spirit was. He carefully observed the Creation Fire Spirit secretly, but did not sense the breath of the Queen Mother of the West. So he revealed his traces in the sea of ​​fire: "Why is your mark jumping wildly? But what clues did the Queen Mother of the West notice?"

"You kid are finally here. The reason why I moved the mark was to call you over. Didn't you say that you wanted to help me get out of trouble? Now hundreds of years have passed, why is there still no movement from you?" The Fire Spirit of Creation said dissatisfiedly.

"Of course I have a plan, but the time is not right now and I cannot let you out." Zhang Chen evaded the Kaitian Fire Spirit. He did not want to betray the Queen Mother of the West at this moment.

"The time is not right? I'm afraid that you will die outside in a few years and you will never have the chance to let me out." said Kaitian Fire Spirit.

Zhang Chen was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Kaitian Fire Spirit in shock: "I died outside? I'm fine now, why did I die outside?"

He felt that the Fire Spirit of Creation seemed to know something.

"How would I know why you died outside, but you are now surrounded by calamity, and I'm afraid you are not far from death. As for what kind of calamity it is, I don't know. You are too sinful. You are the first person I have ever seen with such sins." said the Fire Spirit of Creation.

Zhang Chen was shocked when he heard that, and stared at the Fire Spirit of Creation. He didn't think that the Fire Spirit of Creation was fooling him. After all, he had often felt a sense of crisis that a disaster was about to happen in recent days, which was like a thorn in his back, piercing his heart.

"Where does the crisis come from..." Zhang Chen felt a little panicked. An unknown crisis is more terrifying.

"Boy, why don't you let me out first? Then you will be dead..." Kaitian Fire Spirit said halfway, and saw that Zhang Chen's face was not right, so he slowly closed his mouth, not daring to continue to provoke Zhang Chen.

"Forget it. If a disaster strikes, we will fight back with our generals. If a disaster strikes, we will block it with our own earth. There's no point in worrying now. Instead, I might as well relax. Even if a disaster really strikes, the Queen Mother of the West is here, and she may not be able to kill me." Zhang Chen thought for a while, but couldn't find the source of the disaster, so he turned into a flash of fire and disappeared into the sea of ​​fire.

Ever since he mastered the power of the five elements, Zhang Chen has become somewhat confident about saving his life.

"It's a pity that I don't know where the crisis comes from, otherwise I can respond in advance and make good arrangements." Zhang Chen returned to the altar and continued to comprehend the formation. At the same time, he was secretly alert to everything around him and was on guard.

"If I really find any danger, I will run to the palace of the Queen Mother of the West. I don't believe that anyone in this world can kill the Queen Mother of the West." Zhang Chen muttered, but another idea came to his mind: "What if the crisis comes from the Queen Mother of the West?"

Zhang Chen was startled, but he suppressed the thought: "It shouldn't be like this. Queen Mother of the West has no intention of harming me. If Queen Mother of the West wanted to kill me, she would have crushed me to death long ago."

Zhang Chen rejected this idea. If the Queen Mother of the West wanted to kill him, with her strength, she could crush him to death with just one finger and she would have taken action long ago.

"The source of my crisis does not come from the Queen Mother of the West, so where does the crisis come from?" Zhang Chen swept his eyes across the compass in front of him, looking at the symbols constantly rotating on the compass. He closed his eyes for a long time and continued to comprehend the avenue of formation.

At this point, he had no other options but to wait for the crisis to come and then find a way to resolve it.

Time seemed to have come to a standstill, and everything seemed normal, but Zhang Chen was secretly wary.

After several more years, Zhang Chen always felt that something was wrong with the entire Kunlun Mountain area. An indescribable atmosphere of oppression enveloped the entire Kunlun area.

"The atmosphere in the entire Kunlun Mountains seems a little strange. Is there really anyone in this world who can challenge the Queen Mother of the West?" A thought flashed through Zhang Chen's mind.
