Chapter Index

In the Time Temple, because of the different routes chosen, everyone’s opportunities are also different.

But at this moment, no matter where they were everyone felt a creepy feeling for no reason, as if in the dark there was a pair of lofty eyes looking down on themselves…

This made everyone feel creepy and chilly all over.

Fortunately, this feeling came quickly and went quickly. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared, making them unable to help but think that it was just their own illusion.

In the Dark Great Hall, the strange beast was still observing all directions and making comments from time to time. Many elite martial artists were spurned as trash by it. When its gaze was the Time Ladder it was surprisingly astonished for a moment. “What’s the situation with this little bug… One, two, three, four, five! A guy in the 1st-layer Dao Source Realm is actually carrying five Emperor Treasures on him? What’s his background?

Even though the strange beast had lived for countless tens of thousands of years and witnessed countless tempests, it was shocked by Yang Kai’s background at this moment because it discovered that Yang Kai alone was carrying five Emperor Treasures!

Even an ordinary Emperor Venerable Realm martial artist didn’t have so many Emperor Treasures, right?

The five it was referring to were naturally the Nirvana Thunder Pearl, the Mysterious Realm Pearl, the Slave Insect Bracelet, the Soul Slashing Saber, and the Million Swords! In this Time Temple, nothing could escape its observation.

Could it be that his whole family are Great Emperors? The strange beast guessed dark. Otherwise, how could such a martial artist possibly have so many Emperor Treasures? Emperor Treasures weren’t something that could be found everywhere.

It should be known that even someone as Lan Xun only had one Emperor Treasure in her hand and that was a defensive Emperor Treasure bestowed upon her by the Bright Moon Great Emperor in case she encountered any misfortunes.

“Forget it, forget it. Although his talent and disposition are top-notch, this guy looks like a troublemaker. It’s better not to have any contact with him.” The strange beast muttered for a while and then shifted its gaze from Yang Kai to Zhang Ruoxi’s side.

“Hmm, this little girl… why is she only at the Void Return 2-layer realm! Doubtful light flickered in the strange beast’s pair of beast pupils. “With such a low cultivation level, how did she get in here? Why, after this old man just took a nap, so many strange things have happened…

As it spoke up to this point, it suddenly widened its eyes, stared fixedly at the direction where Zhang Ruoxi was, and let out a cry of surprise: “No, this little girl… she actually…”

At this moment, as if it had discovered something, its originally arrogant and overbearing tone suddenly became extremely frightened. Even in those two terrifying beast pupils, a look of horror emerged, as if it was extremely afraid of Zhang Ruoxi.

On that huge head, cold sweat actually trickled down…

And just at this time, Zhang Ruoxi also seemed to have reached the limit. Clearly, the end of the Ladder of Years was not far ahead, but no matter what, she couldn’t lift her steps. She stubbornly raised her head and looked up, wanting to take her own steps, but felt completely, and her legs were as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

The power of time that filled the Time Staircase suddenly erupted at this moment, invading Zhang Ruoxi’s body and attempting to devour her.

Right behind her, Yang Kai, who had already chased to within a dozen steps, clearly saw Zhang Ruoxi’s jet-black hair turn snow-white in an extremely short period of time. Yang Kai’s heart lurched, realizing something was amiss. He urged the source energy within his body and struggled to move forward, trying to shorten the distance between himself and Zhang Ruoxi.

But having climbed to this point on the Time Staircase, every step was extremely arduous. This short distance of just a dozen steps was not something that Yang Kai could shorten as he wished.

He immediately became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan…

The strange beast in the main hall was just as extremely anxious as he was. As the guardian of the Time Temple, Zhang Ruoxi’s condition and changes were naturally seen by it.

It first felt a burst of secret joy, thinking that Zhang Ruoxi was surely doomed to die, and happily rejoiced for a while. But then, it felt that something was not right, because once Zhang Ruoxi was pushed to a dead end, the bloodline power lurking within her was highly likely to wake up. Once that thing woke up, then it would be a big problem for itself.

With this thought in mind, the strange beast stood up, extended a claw, and probed into the void. The space shattered directly under this strike, and the huge claw across the spatial barrier grabbed Zhang Ruoxi in its palm, and then immediately retracted.

As it did so, it mumbled worryingly: “Doom, doom… I don’t know if this is right or wrong!

After saying that, it slowly opened its claw and placed Zhang Ruoxi, who had a blank look on her face, in front of itself.

Zhang Ruoxi obviously hadn’t figured out what had happened. She just felt that endless time was passing on her. In that short moment, it seemed as if she had spent a hundred years, her vitality seemed to be draining away, and the breath of death was coming at you.

She wanted to turn around and shout for Yang Kai, but couldn’t even make the movement to turn around.

And just when she thought she was bound to die, a huge claw actually descended from the sky, pulling her back from the gates of hell and bringing her to this dark hall.

She looked up and saw a huge flaming beast in front of her, staring at her with a pair of beast pupils.

Ordinary people, seeing such a huge creature, would probably turn pale with fright, scream continuously, and turn around and run away.

And Zhang Ruoxi herself was not a bold person, her cultivation was not high, and her knowledge was not wide. It would not be surprising if she was directly scared unconscious.

But for some reason, when she looked up at this monster, there was no trace of fear in her heart. Instead, there was a feeling that… the other party should be afraid of her. This feeling was baseless and extremely absurd, but it was born from the bottom of her bones, as natural as breathing, and made people convinced.

She gently pursed her red lips and looked up at the huge monster. Her small figure formed a sharp contrast with it.

When their eyes met, it was the monster that was scared in its heart. Cold sweat dripped from its forehead, and its eyes flickered constantly.

“Why do you seem so afraid of me?” Zhang Ruoxi suddenly asked.

As soon as she spoke, the monster couldn’t help but take two steps back, looking at her with fear in its eyes. A dull thunder-like sound came from its abdomen, and it dryly laughed and said, “Hehe… yeah, why should I be afraid of you?”

Zhang Ruoxi didn’t go to the bottom of it, but just waved at it.

Seeing this, the monster actually walked over and prostrated itself in front of Zhang Ruoxi. Its violent eyes became extremely docile at this moment. there was still a trace of fear and dread.

“You saved me?” Zhang Ruoxi asked.

The monster thought for a while and said, “That’s right!”

“Thank you!” Zhang Ruoxi smiled sweetly and stretched out a hand. It seemed that she wanted to touch the monster’s head, but after a moment of hesitation, she said, “I won’t hurt you, will I?”

She didn’t know why she would ask such a question, but there was always a feeling telling her that if she touched this monster in front of her. It was very likely to cause some damage to it.

“You probably won’t now!” the monster replied.

Only then did Zhang Ruoxi put her hand on its forehead and gently touch it.

The scorching flame burned Zhang Ruoxi’s fair hand, but miraculously did not cause any harm to her. And with her touch, the monster actually made a gurgling sound, just like the reaction of a cat when being touched by someone.

“So embarrassing, so embarrassing… This master was actually touched by a little girl like this. It’s simply a great shame and humiliation!” The monster thought unhappily in its heart, but its body honestly gave a response.

“What’s your name?” Zhang Ruoxi suddenly asked again.

“Qiongqi!”

“What a strange name!” Zhang Ruoxi smiled slightly. A confused look appeared in her beautiful eyes, and she said, “I don’t know why, although I heard this name for the first time, I always feel very familiar with it… Do you know the reason?”

“I don’t know!” Qiongqi shook its head like a rattle, thinking in its heart that it would be better if you never understood. How could this master take the initiative to tell you about this kind of thing? If that were really the case, wouldn’t the end of this master be coming!”

“Okay… then!” Zhang Ruoxi said as she retracted her hand and said sincerely, “Thank you for saving my life just now, but can you trouble you to send me back again? I suddenly disappeared. Sir will be very worried.”

“Sir?” Upon hearing this, Qiongqi said suspiciously, “Is that the man following behind you?”

“Yes, can you see him?” Zhang Ruoxi nodded quickly.

Qiongqi said proudly, “In this temple, any slightest movement cannot escape this great… my observation! It was also seeing that you were in danger just now. So I brought you here.”

After pausing for a moment, it shook its head and said, “Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, even as powerful as you still have to be sheltered by others…”

Although it deliberately lowered its volume when it said this, its voice was originally loud, and it was still clearly heard by Zhang Ruoxi.

Zhang Ruoxi quickly waved her hand and said with a embarrassed face, “What are you talking about. Sir is the powerful one. Where am I powerful.”

She just regarded Qiongqi as talking nonsense casually to make herself happy.

“One day, you will be powerful.” Qiongqi said meaningfully.

“Well, I will work hard.” Zhang Ruoxi was full of motivation.

“Forget it, since we are destined to meet today, I will give you something.” Qiongqi suddenly seemed to remember something and said, and as it spoke, it stretched out its claws and grabbed in the void.

When it withdrew its claw, there was a pink neon cloud garment on the claw. The cloud garment was dazzling with strands of imperial charm flowing on it, looking extremely beautiful and magnificent.

“Your strength is still low now. This Phoenix Colorful Cloud Garment is given to you. After putting it on, ordinary people probably won’t be able to harm you.” Qiongqi’s strength was heaven-defying. The ordinary people in its mouth could generally be understood as warriors below the Emperor Venerable Realm.

“How can this be?” Although Zhang Ruoxi liked this precious garment very much, her good upbringing made it impossible for her to accept this unprovoked gift, and she quickly waved her hand to refuse.

“Just put it on. This is your opportunity. For warriors to cultivate, opportunity is also a powerful part!” Qiongqi said in its mouth, but in its heart, it was thinking: If it wasn’t’d for the fear that some blind guy would mess with you and make your blood power wake up in advance how could this man go to such great lengths? This man has painstakingly made preparations in advance and it’s not easy. After getting out of here it’s time to go to Dragon Island and blackmail those old dragons well. Anyway, this is not the matter of this man alone. Those old dragons definitely won’t stand by and ignore…
