I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

#433 - Shocked by the Five-Colored Divine Light

To transform into a dragon, one must have water. How can one transform without water?

A true dragon cannot be nurtured in shallow water. Since there is no sea in the inland, if Zhang Shicheng wants to transform into a dragon, he must first gather great momentum.

“If the heavy rain continues like this, I’m afraid it will cause floods. When that happens, countless people will be displaced, and there will be big problems,” Chen Xu said, looking at the dark clouds in the sky. He saw that the clouds were dense and heavy, pressing down very low, and he didn’t know how much water was hidden inside.

“I can’t control so much. These people are all subjects of the Prince of Pingbian. What does it matter to us if he floods his own people?” Zhang Chen said.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to control it, but he simply couldn’t. The entire northern region was raining, so how could he restrain this overwhelming torrential rain with his limited abilities?

Chen Xu also sighed quietly, “Perhaps we should prepare a large boat in advance.”

“Indeed! We should prepare early.” Zhang Chen moved his gaze away from the dark clouds and couldn’t help but sigh softly, feeling a sense of frustration. If it rained heavily for ten days or half a month, how many people would die by then?

At this moment, a series of footsteps came from outside the door. Zhang Chen, who had mastered ultrasound, was very familiar with the mastery of sound. Those were Xie Lingyun's footsteps.

There were thousands of footsteps in this world, and they sounded similar, but in Zhang Chen's ears, each person's footsteps were like their face, each person with a unique appearance.

Zhang Chen turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw Xie Lingyun wearing a raincoat and holding an oil-paper umbrella, appearing outside the door of the inn.

She put away the oil-paper umbrella, walked into the room, and casually hung the raincoat on the wall, revealing the chain armor she was wearing.

Xie Lingyun not only cultivated her divine soul, but was also a very powerful martial artist. The dozens of kilograms of chain armor seemed to have no weight on her body.

If someone had asked in the past: Can a person lift their own head and lift their body?

Zhang Chen would have answered with certainty: No. But now that he had come into contact with the Divine Soul Dao, the divine soul could control matter. With the power of the divine soul, it was very difficult to lift his own body, but it was no problem to lift the chain armor.

There was a major iron rule for those who practiced the Divine Soul Dao, that was, the physical body was more important than Mount Tai to them. It was almost impossible for the soul to drag the body to fly!

Unless one cultivated to the realm of the Yang God!

As for why the fox fairy Nannan was able to carry his body all over the mountains at the beginning, it was also because she had the great magical power of nothingness transformation, which could directly interfere with matter, allowing her to display powerful magical powers, so that she could run while carrying her body.

However, Xie Lingyun couldn't lift her body, but it was no problem for her to use the power of the Yin God to reduce the weight of the chain armor.

Zhang Chen looked at Xie Lingyun, who was covered in moisture, and flicked his fingers, and all the moisture on Xie Lingyun's body dissipated.

Whether it was an oil-paper umbrella or a raincoat, it was difficult to completely block out such heavy rain.

“Something big has happened!” Xie Lingyun took a sip of hot tea, her voice full of solemnity: “You should join the Inspection Division, otherwise you may die in the northern region.”

“Is it because Zhang Shicheng is going to transform into a dragon again these few days?” Zhang Chen asked.

“There is a high probability that he will successfully transform into a dragon. Then it will be the time when Zhang Shicheng and the imperial court break up!” Xie Lingyun’s voice was full of seriousness: “Once Zhang Shicheng successfully transforms into a dragon, he will at least be an eleventh-level existence. At that time, no one in the northern region can contend with him.”

“Doesn’t the imperial court have three artifacts to suppress the fortune?” Zhang Chen asked.

“An old guy who is good at using a five-colored light suddenly appeared from somewhere in the demon clan, and actually restrained two national artifacts.” Xie Lingyun’s voice was full of bitterness:

“Those two artifacts must be kept to suppress the fortune and cannot be moved easily, lest the demon clan expert take advantage of it. Now the only hope in the northern region lies on that Grand Eunuch. He holds the Gun of Punishment. If he can launch a sneak attack at the critical moment of Zhang Shicheng's transformation into a dragon, causing Zhang Shicheng to fail in his transformation, then we may have a chance to take advantage of the chaos and dismember Zhang Shicheng into eight pieces.”

Hearing Xie Lingyun mention the Grand Eunuch again, Zhang Chen’s heart beat a little faster, after all, it involved the Changsheng Tree Coffin.

“However, the Grand Eunuch’s main task is to escort the Changsheng Tree Coffin back to the capital to extend the lives of the royal nobles. For the Grand Eunuch, the king’s order comes first, and he may not take action to add variables to himself.” Xie Lingyun’s voice was full of bitterness.

Once Zhang Shicheng transforms into a dragon, he will definitely be an eleventh-level powerhouse, or even very likely a twelfth-level powerhouse. Who can be Zhang Shicheng’s opponent at that time?

Speaking of this, Xie Lingyun's black and white eyes looked at Zhang Chen: “I came here today because my father wanted me to ask you, do we still have a chance to kill Zhang Shicheng?”

“Kill Zhang Shicheng? There may not be a chance.” Zhang Chen poured tea for Xie Lingyun: “Go and tell Lord Xie, I will try to win him the opportunity to kill Zhang Shicheng.”

No matter how powerful Zhang Shicheng's cultivation is, as long as he leaves the earth vein, without the suppression of the earth vein's power, his soul cannot withstand his own hook.

And if Zhang Shicheng only has a soul left at that time, can't his body be killed by a Yang God True Person?

He has the Blood Transformation Divine Blade. Although the Blood Transformation Divine Blade is already broken, it should be no problem to stab it into Zhang Shicheng's body.

“I want to meet Commander Xie and talk to Commander Xie about all the details.” Zhang Chen looked at Xie Lingyun.

“I’ll arrange it.” Xie Lingyun did not refuse. She knew her old man in her heart. He was too unreliable. The reason why he didn’t come to see Zhang Chen in person was because he was too afraid of Zhang Chen’s strange methods.

Chen Xu, who was on the side, saw Xie Lingyun sitting down, quietly exited the room, and left the space for Xie Lingyun and Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen asked the waiter to bring up a beef hot pot, and then Zhang Chen and Xie Lingyun cooked the hot pot. After they were full, Xie Lingyun put on her raincoat and left with an oil-paper umbrella.

Zhang Chen stood in front of the window, watching Xie Lingyun's figure disappear into the rain, his eyes showing a solemn look: “The situation is very serious! Otherwise, Xie Lingyun would not wear chain armor.”

Before Xie Lingyun arrived at the stronghold of the Inspection Division, she saw a carriage parked at the entrance of the Inspection Division under the **** of a group of guards.

A coachman knelt on the ground, acting as a human stirrup, and a guard opened an umbrella to support the two of them.

Then she saw a figure she hated very much appearing at the door. Perhaps sensing Xie Lingyun's gaze, the person actually turned his head and smiled at Xie Lingyun in the rain: “So it’s niece Xie, you’re becoming more and more beautiful.”

It was not surprising that the Prince of Pingbian knew about the Inspection Division's stronghold in the northern region, but it was very strange that he came to the door at this time.

The two of them looked at each other, and Xie Lingyun sighed softly, and could only helplessly step forward to return the greeting: “Greetings, Your Highness.”

Her words were full of a sense of alienation, without concealing her indifference.

The Prince of Pingbian didn't care, and said with a smile: “You came back just in time. I have something to say to your father, and you can also consult with me and listen to your opinions.”

Xie Lingyun knew what the Prince of Pingbian wanted to do in her heart, and various thoughts surged in her mind, but she still followed in without showing any signs.

At this time, a guard had already gone to report, and Xie Xuan in a white robe was standing in the front hall to greet him.

“Your Highness has honored us with your presence. This official has failed to welcome you from afar. Please forgive me!” Xie Xuan said words of forgiveness, but his feet stood in the hall like a nail, firmly nailed there without moving.

The Prince of Pingbian walked into the hall and said with a smile: “It doesn’t matter! It’s just a trivial matter. How can this king care about such formalities.”

Then the two of them sat down, and Xie Lingyun accompanied them. After the tea was served, Xie Xuan looked at the Prince of Pingbian: “I wonder what instructions Your Highness has for coming here?”

“This king wants to marry your daughter to my son so that we can become a family. What do you think?” The Prince of Pingbian looked at Xie Xuan opposite him with tiger eyes, without concealing his intentions at all. Although it was a tone of discussion, there was a sense of rejection between the lines.

Xie Xuan and Xie Lingyun looked at each other. The father and daughter certainly knew what the Prince of Pingbian was planning, but the two of them were from the imperial court, so how dare they get involved with the Prince of Pingbian?

The most important thing was that Xie Xuan's family was all in the capital. If he dared to betray, I'm afraid that hundreds of lives of his entire family would be beheaded.

“My daughter does not have an imperial title, so how can she be worthy of the Little Prince?” Xie Xuan shook his head: “It’s not a good match.”

“As long as you want, and with this king’s golden words, she will be worthy!” The Prince of Pingbian was aggressive.

Hearing the words of the Prince of Pingbian, Zhang Shicheng smiled bitterly: “I dare not! My daughter’s marriage is entirely up to her to decide. I, as a parent, do not interfere. No matter who she likes, as long as she likes, I will not object. Whether it’s a vendor or a son of a high-ranking official, it’s all up to her to decide. You want to promote her to be a princess, that’s because you think highly of her, but you have to ask her about this matter in person.”

Of course, the Prince of Pingbian knew Xie Lingyun’s attitude, after all, he had already been rejected by Xie Lingyun at the beginning. He understood what the father and daughter were planning by constantly shirk responsibility.

However, he didn’t expect to achieve it directly today. He came this time just to put pressure on them.

“My ancestor’s dragon transformation is imminent. He will be at least an eleventh-level powerhouse. At that time, there will be only one voice in the entire northern region, and that is the Pingbian Royal Mansion. Even the imperial court’s hand will be difficult to reach.” The Prince of Pingbian threatened the two of them with a smile: “If you are sensible people, you should make a sensible choice. In the future, there will be only one voice and one force in my northern region, and that is the Pingbian Royal Mansion.”

“That’s all I have to say, you two should consider it carefully. If you have considered it well, directly send troops to the battlefield to help this king. The time limit is three days!” After Zhang Shicheng finished speaking, he put down the teacup, waved his sleeves and broke into the rain and left.
