Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 487 Taiyi
On the seventh day after Zhao Shuang left the Blood God Cult, he learned a shocking news: his ninth brother Zhang Ruoji was gone, killed by the undead vampire Knight.

"He died so quickly. But a few Death Knights thought they could kill my ninth brother. Aren't the Undead Vampires overthinking it a bit? It's a good thing, though. After all, my ninth brother has a lot of secrets. This way, at least he can stay out of the spotlight for a while and not have to show up in public anymore."

After hearing the news, Zhao Shuang came to the city where Zhang Ruoji fell. At this moment, the city had already been restored to its original state.

He was sure that nothing was wrong with Zhang Ruoji, otherwise, the one from the Endless Abyss would have destroyed the current undead vampires long ago.

To that person, the Undead Vampires were merely his subordinates and servants, while Zhang Ruoji was his own son. The disparity between them was truly enormous.

Therefore, if something really happened to Zhang Ruoji, the one from the Endless Abyss would take action even at the risk of his own death and destroy the Undead Vampire Clan.

Moreover, this was also one of Zhang Ruoji's ways of avoiding the spotlight. Because for Zhang Ruoji, once his identity as the heir of time and space was exposed, he would be unsafe.

After all, the identity of the heir of time and space represents endless opportunities and fortune, as well as secrets, especially that big bald donkey. There are countless masters in the entire Kunlun world who want to obtain the secrets of the heir of time and space and want to become gods.

There is no doubt that as long as the secrets of the heir of time and space can be obtained, becoming a god is only a matter of time. No one knows who spread this rumor.

It didn't matter who spread the rumor, because it wasn't just a rumor; it was actually true. If one truly possessed this power, they could indeed become a god, and a powerful one at that.

However, his ninth brother is not so easy to be killed.

Not long after Zhao Shuang arrived in this city, a guest came - the Burial Moon Sword Saint of the Liangyi Sect.

"Since you're here, does that mean my ninth brother is alright? Do you know where he's going now?"

"Indeed, nothing happened, and he has already left. As for where he went, I don't know. If the Heavenly King wants to look for him, he can do so."

The Sword Master’s answer to Zhao Shuang was very straightforward: I just don’t know, don’t ask me, go find it yourself if you want to.

"It seems that Senior Taiyi told me this, but it doesn't matter. After all, I know where my ninth brother went. Even if I can't find him, it doesn't matter as long as he is safe. Although I really want to slap him to death, he is my brother after all."

Zhao Shuang's words were also very clear and concise.

"He is your brother after all. Can you really do that to him?"

The Sword Master questioned Zhao Shuang again, puzzled, because he really couldn't understand how Zhao Shuang, with his status and position, could be so cruel to his own brother? Especially his own brother, whose status and position was also very unusual, being the heir of time and space, and who could be of great help to Zhao Shuang.

"It's precisely because our identities are not simple that I want to slap him to death. This may be a relief for him. If you don't believe me, ask Senior Taiyi. He will definitely say the same thing. I can guarantee it."

What Zhao Shuang said made the Moon Burial Sword Saint even more confused, but he did not ask any further questions because he knew that even if he asked, Zhao Shuang would not answer.

Zhao Shuang had already told him to ask Grandmaster Taiyi. "Alright, since I've heard from you that my brother is alright, I'll leave now. I have other things to do. This matter concerns the survival of the entire Kunlun Realm. If you're willing to help, that's fine. If you're not, that's fine too. I won't force anything."

Zhao Shuang's words were very straightforward, but they also hinted at a sense of moral blackmail. He was threatening the Sword Saint with the fate of the Kunlun Realm, asking him to help. If the Sword Saint didn't help, he would be letting down the entire Kunlun Realm.

"I don't know what the Heavenly King wants me and the Liangyi Sect to do for you. If possible, I and the Liangyi Sect will help you, but the prerequisite is that we can do it. If we can't, then there is nothing we can do."

The Sword Master's answer was also very simple, that is, if he can help, he will help, but if he can't help, then there is nothing he can do.

"Don't worry, it's not a difficult task. You just need to help me wipe out all the nearby Undead Vampires, just to vent my anger for my ninth brother. Of course, by doing this, Liangyi Sect can be said to have offended the Undead Vampires to death, but as a sect in the Kunlun Realm, they have an irreconcilable relationship with the Undead Vampires. Therefore, this matter is not a difficult task for Liangyi Sect."

Zhao Shuang's words were simple, and his request was even simpler, surprising the Sword Saint. He hadn't expected Zhao Shuang to make such a request. Just as Zhao Shuang had said, the Liangyi Sect and the Undead Vampire Clan were inherently at odds. After all, the Undead Vampire Clan wouldn't let the Liangyi Sect go, and the Liangyi Sect wouldn't betray the human race and let the Undead Vampire Clan go. Therefore, the two were inherently at odds.

"Okay, I've made my request. It's up to you whether you'll help me or not. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. Bye."

After saying this, Zhao Shuang disappeared, leaving the Sword Saint dumbfounded. He hadn't expected Zhao Shuang to leave so directly, which was truly unbelievable. However, even if it was unbelievable, he had to report this matter to Grandmaster Taiyi.

"You don't have to look for me, I'm already here."

Just when the Sword Saint was about to return to Liangyi Sect to find Master Taiyi, Master Taiyi had already arrived.

"Master, what is this Heavenly King's purpose? I always feel that his actions are extremely strange. With his ability, it is not difficult to completely wipe out the nearby Undead Vampires. Our Liangyi Sect can also do it. But why? He made such a request. Isn't this request too simple? I always feel that he has other motives."

The Sword Saint looked at the ancestor in front of him, frowned, and expressed his doubts. He was really confused about what Zhao Shuang had done.

"His actions are extremely strange. You don't need to think too much. Just do as he tells you to do. Kill all the undead vampires nearby. You don't need to worry about other things." After saying this, Patriarch Taiyi left.

……

After Zhao Shuang separated from the Sword Saint, he came to Shenmengze.

The 80,000-li Shenmengze is the place where the divine dragon and half-human race live. This wild swamp does not have any dirty air. Instead, the air is fresh, the scenery is beautiful, with blue sky and white clouds, as if it is a fairyland.

The lake now resembled an ocean, stretching for countless miles. Within this water, islands appeared infinitely smaller, like chess pieces on a chessboard. This was where the Shenlong Centaur race had lived for generations. The treasures and elixirs produced annually were incalculable, coveted by countless factions and the beastmen of the Savage Secret Realm. However, as this was the border between the Eastern Region and the Savage Secret Realm, any attempt by humans or beastmen other than the Shenlong Centaur race to capture it would inevitably lead to a bloody conflict, a situation that would be more catastrophic than beneficial.

It is precisely for this reason that the Shenlong Centauri have been able to live here for generations. Today, the Shenlong Centauri have completely surrendered to the human race, rather than the beastmen of the Savage Secret Realm. The reason for this is, of course, that the Shenlong Centauri encountered a powerful enemy many years ago, nearly facing genocide. However, the beastmen did not come to their aid. Instead, the human court came to their aid, dispatching a large force to help the Shenlong Centauri avert the threat of genocide.

It is also for this reason that the Shenlong half-human race finally chose to surrender to the human court, and has been providing the human court with various elixirs, treasures and other resources, making the relationship between the Shenlong half-human race and the court increasingly close.

But on this day, two uninvited guests came from the Shenlong half-human tribe.

They are not the human race, but the beast race in the wild secret realm. To be precise, they are the messengers of Zulong Mountain - the Holy Dragon Messengers, each of whom is a master of the saint level.

Zulong Mountain has an extremely high status in the entire Savage Secret Realm, and it can be said to be one of the top forces in the Savage Secret Realm.

Therefore, the Holy Dragon Emissary it sent was a formidable threat to the entire Shenlong Centaur Clan. Although the Shenlong Centaur Clan had already surrendered to the human court, they still dared not offend Ancestral Dragon Mountain, fearing extinction. After all, Ancestral Dragon Mountain was no pushover. On the contrary, its strength had increased countless times simply because it had gained a Great Sage-level ancient relic within its ranks.

This alone has caused a bloody storm in the entire wild secret realm.

There was no other way. The entire Zulong Mountain wanted to unify the entire Savage Secret Realm in order to face the disaster that would come to the Kunlun Realm. Only in this way could they possibly survive the disaster that would come to the Kunlun Realm. If even the entire Savage Secret Realm could not be unified, it would be almost impossible to resolve the disaster that would come to the Kunlun Realm. Now the entire Kunlun Realm needed to unite as one. Otherwise, surviving the difficulties that would come would be a fantasy.

Zhao Shuang didn't care about this matter, but Zulong Mountain cared about it very much. It wanted to unify the entire wild secret realm, and the Shenlong half-human race was one of them.

However, when these two Holy Dragon Messengers arrived, the entire Divine Dragon Centaur Clan was on high alert and directly invited the two Holy Dragon Messengers into the Divine Dragon Centaur Clan's hall.

The current patriarch of the Shenlong Half-Human Clan is not Ao Xinyan’s grandfather, but Ao Xinyan. Now Ao Xinyan is no longer the young patriarch, but the real patriarch of the Shenlong Half-Human Clan.

"I never thought that the leader of the Shenlong Half-Human Clan would turn into a little girl. It's really surprising!"

Upon seeing Ao Xinyan sitting in the first seat, one of the two Holy Dragon Messengers said with a mocking look on his face.

It was obvious that he had extreme contempt for Ao Xinyan and did not take her seriously at all.

"You two envoys are so honored to be here. If you only intend to make such sarcastic remarks, please leave. We, the Shenlong Centauri, do not welcome you."

Faced with the ridicule of the two Holy Dragon Messengers, Ao Xinyan was not polite and had no intention of talking nonsense. He directly issued an order to expel them. Because in Ao Xinyan's eyes, the two Holy Dragon Messengers did not pose any threat at all. At most, there were some dangers in Zulong Mountain, but if they really encountered danger, Ao Xinyan was confident enough to take the entire Holy Dragon Half-Human Race away.

"Little girl, you are so arrogant. You actually dare to speak to me like that. You are simply courting death."

As soon as he said this, the Holy Dragon Messenger attacked directly. However, before he could gather the holy energy in his hands, Ao Xinyan only gave him a glance, and the Holy Dragon Messenger flew away.

That’s right, he defeated the Holy Dragon Messenger with just one glance.

This was Ao Xinyan's current strength and power. She was arguably the strongest of the entire Shenlong half-human race, bar none. Even her grandfather was far inferior to Ao Xinyan. After all, Zhao Shuang had taught Ao Xinyan the Three Thousand Great Daos related to dragons, as well as the Art of Transforming All Things into Dragons.

Ao Xinyan's current strength is beyond description. Aside from Zhao Shuang and her sisters, no other cultivator of the same rank could rival her. It's precisely because of this immense power that Ao Xinyan was able to become the leader of the Shenlong Half-Human Tribe at such a young age. If her strength wasn't sufficient, her grandfather would never have given her the position of leader.

Ao Xinyan's sudden move stunned the two Holy Dragon Messengers. They had never imagined that this little girl, whom they had only considered a little girl, could possess such formidable power. A single glance could severely injure one of them. What did this mean? It meant that if Ao Xinyan wished, neither of them would be able to escape this Divine Dragon Half-Human Clan alive. At that moment, their contempt for Ao Xinyan, and for the Divine Dragon Half-Human Clan, completely vanished.

They really didn't expect Ao Xinyan to be so powerful. Such strength was beyond their expectations. But no matter how unexpected it was, they had to follow their orders.

"Ancestor Dragon Mountain has issued an order that the Shenlong Half-Human Race will from now on belong to the Ancestor Dragon Mountain and must not disobey the order. If you do, you will be killed without mercy."

The moment the Holy Dragon Envoy said this, Ao Xinyan's expression changed, becoming extremely ugly. She had never expected that Zulong Mountain would be so overbearing, directly asking their entire Divine Dragon Half-Human Race to submit to Zulong Mountain. This was completely impossible, and they would never agree to it.
