From A Stronghold NPC To The Final BOSS

151 The end

It was night!

The rain was pouring.

Her already dim vision became even more blurry after being blocked by the rain.

Cheng Zhong was carrying a child in his arms as he ran madly in the dark of the night against the heavy rain. There were obvious sword wounds on his body, and his clothes were soaked in blood mixed with the rain.

Ever since Lin Shixiong and the rest were defeated.

Marquis Yifeng’s last remaining force had also been completely annihilated.

At Lin Shixiong’s behest, Cheng Zhong had waited for the last son of Marquis Yifeng to escape before the war.

Not long after.

He received the news that the rebel army had been exterminated.

Finally ...

Cheng Zhong had been on the run.

Because after Hong Bin and the others destroyed the rebel army, they didn’t find any signs of the heir of the Marquis of Yifeng. In addition, there was a relatively famous general among the rebel army who was missing. They immediately understood that Lin Shixiong must have had him secretly send the heir of the Marquis of Yifeng away in advance.

Therefore, after they withdrew their troops, they immediately reported this matter.

Immediately after.

The Imperial court had issued a wanted order for the capture of Cheng Zhong and the Son of Marquis Yifeng.

The moment the bounty was announced.

Cheng Zhong was like a street rat, not daring to show his face easily.

Fortunately ...

Even though Marquis Yifeng had died and all of the factions that had grown up were completely destroyed, there were still some people who had escaped and lived in great Zhao with concealed names.

Under such circumstances.

Cheng Zhong had no choice but to find someone he thought he could trust to temporarily rely on.

He would wait for the situation to stabilize before making his next move.

The main reason was that Marquis Yifeng’s children were too young and could not bear too much running around.

But what Cheng Zhong never expected was ...

He thought that he had a life-and-death friendship with a friend who would never betray him, but in the end, he was still stabbed in the back.

That night.

Dozens of true martial realm experts surrounded him.

Fortunately ...

They didn’t know that Cheng Zhong was already at true martial tier 7, an expert who could release gang Qi.

Even as he was going all out, he was still able to escape the encirclement with his heavily injured body.

But now ...

His whereabouts were completely exposed.

After the Imperial court offered the reward, Cheng Zhong had to be alert at almost all times to prevent the attack of strong enemies.

In the God temple of pojiu mountain.

The fire was lit and some of the cold from the rainy night was dispelled.

Cheng Zhong took out a bag of dried meat from his arms and then took out a water bag. He handed the two over.”Your Royal Highness, eat something first, then have a good night’s rest. We still have to hurry on with our journey tomorrow.”

“Many thanks, uncle Cheng.” Although Marquis Yifeng’s son was young, he had learned his manners well. He took the food with his two fair and tender hands and then slowly chewed.

At this moment, Cheng Zhong sized up the layout of the mountain temple.

The temple wasn’t big, and it was also very dilapidated.

The mountain god statue in the middle had lost its head. Other than a few bowls covered in dust, there was nothing else on the table.

The ground was covered in dust. Other than two rows of shallow footprints left by them, there were no traces of any activity.

Seeing this.

His tensed heart also relaxed a little.

Since the mountain god temple was uninhabited, it must have been abandoned for a long time. In addition, it was surrounded by deep mountains and old forests, so the pursuers might not be able to find this place.

Soon after.

He closed his eyes and circulated his true Yuan to slowly heal his injuries.

White mist rose from his body, and his clothes, which had been soaked by the rain, gradually dried up, leaving only faint bloodstains.

The wounds on his body also slowly began to scab.

After a long time.

Cheng Zhong opened his eyes and found that the rain outside had stopped. He looked into the temple and saw that the fire was almost extinguished. The Prince was curled up on the side and had fallen into a deep sleep.

Looking at the sleeping Yifeng Marquis son, his eyes couldn’t help but be in a daze for a moment. A thought also rose in his heart.

“Does the Crown Prince really have a chance to rise up again?”

What did a three-year-old child need to rely on to move a behemoth that had existed for thousands of years and ruled hundreds of millions of miles of territory?

Even the Marquis of Yifeng had failed in the end.

...

Moreover ...

He was a mighty true martial tier 7 expert with physical invulnerability. He was respected there and had never fallen to such a state.

For a moment.

Cheng Zhong’s mind was filled with thoughts.

But he thought of Lin Shixiong and the others.

He thought of the many brothers who had died in battle.

Gradually.

On the horizon, the fish’s belly turned white.

The night passed quietly.

Cheng Zhong also woke up and woke up Marquis Yifeng’s son. Then, he simply wiped away all traces and carried him on his way.

On the other side.

...

Because sky origin sect needed a lot of things this time, Gu Feng spent three whole days to prepare everything. Then, he sent someone to accompany Xu Yuanming and transport everything back to sky origin sect.

When Xu Yuanming came back.

After Qin shujian looked at the martial arts and cultivation techniques, he left all of them untouched and placed them in the library.

This time.

He had placed all the true-rank cultivation techniques on the third floor of the library Pavilion.

This was the limit that inner sect disciples could reach.

Even if ...

Entering the third floor required a huge amount of contribution points.

Then, Qin shujian would spread the news through other people.

He couldn’t wait for the players to come and dig.

What if it took ten days or half a month before players decided to enter the third floor?

This kind of thing.

It was better to know it earlier than later.

At the peak of Mount Liang.

Qin shujian usually liked to stay there.

This was because this was the place with the densest spiritual energy in the entire sky origin sect, and it was twice as effective in cultivating techniques.

Hualala-

The spiritual Qi of heaven and earth churned, and the faint sound of waves could be heard.

Qin shujian’s eyes were tightly shut. His ocean-returning to origin technique had already reached a critical juncture.

About half an hour passed.

BOOM!

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to have exploded, instantly becoming restless.

Then, Qin shujian took a slight breath from his abdomen. The surging spiritual Qi followed his breathing like a tide and gushed into his body.

“You’ve cultivated painstakingly, and your ocean-converging origin technique has been raised to the eleventh level!”

Immediately.

The spiritual Qi of heaven and earth dissipated.

Qin shujian leaped into the air and activated his surging true essence. He let out a long howl.

Then, he looked at the attributes of the ocean assimilation origin returning technique.

Origin convergence Sea Art’s eleventh layer (truth tier low grade):All rivers run into the sea level

As for this special trait ...

Qin shujian finally understood.

This was different from the Yang Fire of the raging flame technique. The all rivers run into the sea was more inclined to a kind of auxiliary effect, able to open up the dantian, allowing it to accommodate more true essence.

Level one, all rivers run into the sea.

It directly increased his true essence by a full ten percent.

This was a terrifying improvement.

One had to know.

This was only the effect of the first stage of the ocean assimilation origin returning technique.

If he continued to deduce it ...

And how much could it increase?

50%?

100%?

At that time, it could really be described with the word ‘terrifying’.

Qin shujian suddenly had a feeling when he saw the ocean-elemental gathering technique. It was very likely that the person who had created this technique had been unable to derive it any further after deducing it to the third stage of the true martial chapter.

Otherwise ...

If he could complete the deduction, it would definitely be an extremely terrifying cultivation technique.

Not to mention anything else.

Those who practiced the ocean-absorbing energy returning technique had naturally more true energy than others. Even if they were at the same realm, they could use a large amount of true energy to kill their enemies.

if that’s the case, others might not be able to derive this technique, but it’s not a problem for me since I have life value.

Qin shujian could already see the huge potential of this technique.

Of course.

The so-called potential was based on the premise that this cultivation method could be derived into the future.

Otherwise ...

In the end, it was only a low-grade truth-tier cultivation technique.

No matter how strong he was, he had his limits.

Qin shujian then looked at his own attributes.

He had more than 8000 points of life value now, but he was still far from deducing the yuan Codex.

After all, the 18th level already required 25000 points, so the 19th level would definitely be higher.

the true Dominion’s limits can only accommodate the pinnacle of the true Dominion. It will probably take a few hundred years for the Liangshan true protectorate to advance by relying on the true Dominion. If it were to advance by relying on the spirit domain, there would be no spirit domains in the surroundings.

“It seems like I’ll have to go the old way in terms of probability!”

Qin shujian had already thought of the path after the peak of the true martial realm.

He was no longer the noob he was in the past. He had already understood a lot of things.

The spirit domain.

It was the advancement after the true Dominion.

He was already at true martial tier 8. If he relied on the players ‘speed of harvesting life value, he would be able to reach the peak of true martial in no time.

&Nbsp; so,

Next, he had to start thinking about how he should go after the peak of the true martial realm.

The sky origin sect had already taken root in the Liangshan true domain.

Qin shujian felt that he couldn’t afford to embarrass the dignified domain lord and his entire sect by moving.

This way ...

Then there was only one way to go.

Qin shujian took a look at his attributes before he descended from the peak of Mount Liang. He met up with Zheng Fang before leaving the yuan sect.

On the ancient path.

Qin shujian walked straight in one of the directions.

In less than half a day, the road gradually disappeared and was replaced by a wilderness.

The Liangshan true domain was located on the border of the great Zhao dynasty.

To be more direct.

This was the newly-born mortal domain. It was not only located on the border of the great Zhao dynasty, but also on the border of this world.

And now.

Qin shujian wanted to go.

It was the border of the Liangshan true domain, which did not rely on any mortal true domain.

As they went deeper and deeper.

The surrounding scenery was also becoming more and more desolate.

Suddenly.

Qin shujian stopped in his tracks and looked in front of him with a shocked expression.

Over there.

A seven-colored light fell. Not only did it cut open people’s vision, but it also seemed to cut the world.

As he walked closer ...

Qin shujian noticed that the seven-colored light in his eyes seemed to be shrinking as he got closer.

But this was only a feeling.

This was because everything he could see was still occupied by the colorful light.

“You’ve discovered the barrier between heaven and earth!”

The system message appeared at the right time.

“Heaven and earth barrier!”

Qin shujian muttered to himself. When he raised his head to look, there was still only the seven-colored radiance in his vision. There was nothing else.

When he did not sense any danger.

He slowly walked forward.

At the same time, his true martial tier 8 perception was also maximized.

However-

No, there wasn’t.

There was nothing.

In his perception, there was nothing in front of him.

When he stood completely under the seven-colored radiance.

Qin shujian’s eyes looked straight at the barrier between heaven and earth. It was as if he could see something surging behind the seven-colored light.
