I don't know when the sky will darken again.
There seemed to be a strange wind sound coming from a distant place, mixed with some hair-raising whispers.
After the female corpse on Ulan's back appeared, the style of painting in front of him completely changed.
This was the first time Shen Qian had seen such a method, and perhaps the first time for the system.
Because there was no rush to take action after the system went online, which is extremely rare for a system that always pursues efficiency.
It can only show what the system is still calculating or evaluating.
"I didn't expect you to have such a hobby."
The system looked indifferent, and the one who opened his mouth to speak was Shen Qian, who was somewhat sarcastic.
Looking at the female corpse on Ulan's back always gave him some bad associations, such as several horror movies that have transformed from a shadow of childhood into a shadow of youth.
Don't ask, are mountain and sea warriors also afraid?
Maybe the current Shen Qian could kill a Sadako with one slap, but he would still be furious if he really met Sadako.
Fortunately, the "Hunyuan God Refining Chapter" given to him by the boss often used various ghost stories to temper his spirit. Now Shen Qian's courage has improved slightly.
At least when he saw such a weird thing hanging on Wu Lan's back, he could barely look straight at it.
"Shen Qian, be careful!"
At this time, You Ling, who had been hiding far away, ran back at some point. She also saw the female body on Wu Lan's back, and anxiously shouted from behind Shen Qian: "He is the rarest back among the Wu clan." Corpse man!"
"What is a corpse carrier?"
Shen Qian still felt a little confused when he heard this word.
The Wu Clan may be the number one among all races in this era, but it has long been difficult to come into contact with in the modern martial arts society. The only ones Shen Qian had direct dealings with were the Ling Wu Clan.
But that's just a branch of the Wu clan.
There was also Nayilori who she met while doing the slashing team mission, but that seemed to be a female ghost spawned by a curse, and was different from the Ulan in front of her.
The Witch Clan's methods have always been weird, and this corpse-carrying man was described by You Ling as "the rarest". In other words, it was probably more weird than weird.
"The four major branches of the Witch Clan have hundreds of ways to practice magic. The outside world has always believed that Wu Lan is just the most traditional magician, but everyone has been deceived by him!"
You Ling spoke very quickly, telling Shen Qian everything she knew.
"The corpse-carrying person's greatest reliance is the 'mother corpse' on his body. He sacrifices his lifespan to communicate with yin and yang, and feeds him with endless flesh and blood. And 30% of all the spiritual energy gained from his cultivation will be absorbed by the mother corpse. Usually the mother corpse The strength of the corpse is several times that of the person carrying it!"
"Several times?"
Shen Qian also felt a little solemn in his heart.
The Nine Heavens of Mountains and Seas are also strong and weak.
In Shen Qian's eyes, it seemed that Zain and the others were just at a high level and were the weakest among the Nine Heavens of Mountains and Seas, but this was definitely not the case for Ulan.
In the third heaven gate, Ulan's spell also brought a great sense of oppression to Shen Qian.
And it would be a bit outrageous if the strength of the female corpse on Wulan's back was several times that of his.
Wu Lan did not stop You Ling. It was not until You Ling finished speaking that he sighed quietly: "Basically everything is right, but one thing is wrong. The spiritual energy I cultivated was not absorbed by 30%... but by 70%!"
As Ulan finished speaking, his face suddenly showed great pain. His body straightened and his limbs trembled. The red and blue light in his eyes alternated rapidly, and then Ulan lowered his head, as if he had fallen into silence.
His body slowly turned so that his back was facing Shen Qian, and the female corpse was facing Shen Qian.
Suddenly, the long hair covering the face of the female corpse flew up, and at the same time, the female corpse whose face was revealed opened her eyes.
What made Shen Qian breathe a sigh of relief was that the female corpse's facial features were normal and even beautiful. However, the two cheeks were also covered with talismans, which destroyed the original beauty.
The only weird thing is the pair of eyes without whites, which are completely covered in darkness. Just one look at them, as if they want to suck in the soul of a person.
"Shen Qian, run away quickly. She is a true god of the Wu clan who died ten years ago. I once saw my father picking up her remaining soul in the netherworld. You are no match for her!"
Hearing You Ling's suddenly sharp shout, Shen Qian was startled.
True God?
This also means that this female corpse was a genuine prince during her lifetime!
what about now?
Shen Qian just had such a question, and he immediately had the answer.
Shen Qian's figure suddenly moved three feet sideways, and right where he was standing, the space suddenly shattered, and vicious space cracks extended.
Inside, Shen Qian was startled and broke into a cold sweat. It was not because of the lethality of the space fragmentation, but because...
Without warning.
There was no fluctuation of Yuan Power and no gathering of spiritual energy. In just the blink of an eye, the space was completely shattered.
If it wasn't the system that was controlling him, but Shen Qian himself, under that killing move that was more sudden than a sneak attack just now, I'm afraid he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die.
…
"Do you know the biggest difference between a prince and a mountain and sea?"
Shen Qian suddenly remembered that before entering the Nine Heavens Battlefield, on the rooftop of the hotel, after talking about the Nine Heavens Battle that night, the two of them sat across from each other and had a drink, and what Shi Dingyan asked him while chatting.
At that time, although Shen Qian was not even a mountain and sea, he had actually offended two top princes.
Now when Shen Qian recalls it, he can still remember the hidden worry under Shi Dingyan's calm eyes at that time, and all the details are vividly in his mind.
"What is it?"
Regarding this issue, Shen Qian is really not too clear.
In fact, at that time, he was still a little confused about the difference between mountains and seas, let alone studying the differences between princes.
"Has anyone ever told you how to become a prince?"
"Sixth Senior Brother once said that you must either make a great contribution to the human race or open up a new path."
Shen Qian repeated Liu Changqing's original words.
"That's right or wrong. In fact, these two paths can be summarized as one path."
"Appreciate further details."
"Having made a great contribution to the human race is actually the embodiment of 'Tao', and what this Tao is, you should be able to understand by just turning a corner."
"One of the people?"
Shen Qian understood something instantly.
"Yes, Chang Qing is actually talking about the type of people who have made the most achievements as princes and powerful people throughout the ages. They are the ones who have reached the end of their ways and become kings. If you think about it carefully, among those outstanding emperors throughout the ages, which one has not been a great influence on the ethnic group? Made a great contribution?"
Shi Dingyan smiled.
"Indeed." Shen Qian nodded.
"It's not entirely right to open up a new path. You still have to take this path to the end." Shi Dingyan said again leisurely.
"So the princes are all completely in control of a 'Tao' existence?"
Shen Qian understood clearly.
"The mountains and seas have gained the Tao, and then the entire process of the mountains and seas is actually clearing the way. When you reach the end, you have complete control of the 'Tao' under your feet, and you are beyond the constraints of the Tao and the sea, and you are a prince."
Shi Dingyan used his own understanding to explain in detail the reasons for the formation of princes.
"Then... what will happen after you completely control a path?" Shen Qian asked curiously.
"It is a self-contained domain. Where you are is where the 'Tao' is. Within your domain space, you are an invincible existence."
Recalling Shi Dingyan's words at this moment, Shen Qian could vaguely understand what the other party said.
After all, in a sense, he had already had a brief confrontation with the prince when he was in Yancheng.
At that time, King Yan Jiang Zhi stretched out his hand, and the space between the two seemed to be compressed regardless of the distance. If Gao Zhe hadn't used the time conch in time to step into the prince, Shen Qian would have most likely faced the end of being killed instantly.
The feeling of being unable to struggle at all is still fresh in my memory.
Later, Jiang Zhi and Gao Zhe fought, and they directly entered another space, which was the domain of princes.
In fact, the Tao that Shen Qian understood himself felt like the prototype of a field.
It's just that his field, which specializes in suppressing other people's "Tao", has certain limitations, and it is completely different from the field of princes.
…
Turning back to his thoughts, as the female corpse on Ulan's body was taken action, the surrounding world had already undergone astonishing changes.
The ripple-like mist came from nowhere and covered the sky and the earth for thousands of meters. Bones sprouted from the earth, and blood rained from the sky.
As if knowing that there was no way to escape, the system made no move and allowed the fog to cover itself.
When the blood rain fell, the moon-white battle suit automatically appeared on Shen Qian's surface, holding up a thin layer of moonlight to resist the blood rain.
The sound of "Zizi" kept ringing, and every drop of blood rain fell to the ground, and a hole was directly drilled into the ground, which shows the horror of blood rain.
You Ling, who was also implicated because she was close, was huddled in a corner and was using her Yuan Power to resist the blood rain with great difficulty.
This is the reason why most of Xue Yu was attracted by Shen Qian, otherwise You Ling would not be able to survive even for a few breaths.
But in fact... the other party hasn't done anything yet.
Shen Qian knew full well that he was already in the realm of the female corpse.
This so-called blood rain is just some of the effects of the domain, not a deliberate attack by the female corpse.
In other words, even if she is dead, this female corpse still has the strength of a prince!
Perhaps this is the result of Ulan's many years of pregnancy, or perhaps this female corpse is considered weak among the princes and has not really reached the stage of her life...
But no matter what, the opponent's strength is already ranked above the mountains and seas.
Shen Qian didn't know what the system was in, or whether it was in a mood, but Shen Qian himself was very solemn.
Damn, this is so over the top!
Although he was no longer a weakling in the mountains and seas, he was just a newcomer from the first level of mountains and seas. An enemy of princely level appeared on this battlefield of thousands of races. Shen Qian didn't know what to do for a moment.
As the second divine pillar, Wu Lan had two tricks for sure, but Shen Qian really didn't expect that the opponent had such a trump card that was almost like cheating.
Having come into contact with countless princes, and with Shen Qian's current understanding of martial arts, he clearly knew what a gulf lay between the princes and the mountains and seas.
The gap between them is probably even greater than that between Shanhai and ordinary warriors.
This is no longer a distance that Shen Qian can easily cross with his unparalleled talent and many trump cards.
He estimated that with his newly born "Tao", which was only seven feet tall, he was afraid that it would not be able to affect this female corpse at all.
At this time, the female corpse moved.
She tilted her head, and Shen Qian's appearance was reflected in her dark eyes.
At the same time, Shen Qian found that he was frozen in place.
His hands and feet were frozen by the extreme cold, and even his soul became numb, unable to move at all.
Then the female corpse stretched out her dry palm with long nails and reached out to grab it. Countless blood rains from the sky and the earth gathered into the air, and then formed a blood-red embroidery needle.
But this embroidery needle is a hundred feet long!
As the female corpse moved with one hand, and as Shen Qian's pupils contracted violently, the blood-red needle stabbed towards him silently.
An extreme premonition of death came to Shen Qian's mind.
You Ling, who was not far away, showed a look of despair, and then rushed towards Shen Qian regardless of her own safety, as if she wanted to block the needle for Shen Qian.
But this was the domain of the prince, and she could not move forward.
Shen Qian smiled bitterly in his heart.
This is the prince!
The opponent only made one move, and it was already difficult for him to resist.
But Shen Qian was not too panicked.
Because he believed that the system could not really stand there and wait to die.
Sure enough, as the system activated Dao Hai, and when the power of "Dao" was added to his body, Shen Qian finally broke free from the restraints. Although his movements were still as slow as if he was trapped in an ice cellar, he was able to move at least.
The refreshed Shen Qianzheng opened his eyes wide, guessing what means the system would use to counterattack, or when it left the princely domain, the system...
Suddenly offline.
Shen Qian:?
Shen Qian, who had regained control of his body, stood in mid-air with a confused look on his face, somewhat in disbelief.
How long has it been, countless crises... This is the first time he has encountered such a situation.
The system unexpectedly ran away temporarily!
What the hell!
Even if the prince exceeds the limit of what you can handle, you won't be so heartless, right?
Everything happened in an instant, and at this time, the embroidery needle that seemed to pierce the void was already in front of him. Just when Shen Qian was gritting his teeth and preparing to fight, he suddenly felt that he was holding something in his hand.
Shen Qian opened his palm, and there was a river snail lying quietly in it.
The thin white threads are layered on top of each other, as if telling the oldest secret. Just one more look will make you feel dizzy.
Time conch!
Shen Qian secretly cursed himself for being stupid for forgetting this thing.
No wonder the system immediately went offline. With the existence of the river snails at this time, there is really no point in the system continuing to consume energy.
What can be used to fight against the prince?
Of course...another prince!
The time snail can accelerate its own time and space forward for a thousand years, and even a pig can be ridiculously strong. What's more, Shen Qian is also a peerless genius who claims to have no bottleneck in cultivation.
For him at this time, the river conch was like a prince experience card in another sense.
Buzz!
The space in front of him was shattered into pieces like a mirror, and the feeling of his body being torn apart had already appeared. The sharp blood-red needle was obviously still more than ten meters away from Shen Qian, but Shen Qian had a strong illusion that he was already dead. .
At the critical moment, he no longer hesitated and directly used his remaining strength to crush the time conch in his hand.
Click!
The fine powder flew away in the wind, and the heaven and earth stagnated silently.
You Ling, who was running from a distance, raised her legs and could no longer fall down. She stared at Shen Qian with a certain determination in her eyes, and the teardrops in the corners of her eyes froze into the shape of floating away.
The embroidery needle also stopped in mid-air, including all the flowing particles in the air.
Even the female corpse with the realm of a prince was completely still in place at this moment, completely unable to resist the power of time spreading from Shen Qian's hand.
And Shen Qian's body also began to undergo startling changes.
Feeling that he had entered a wonderful state, Shen Qian couldn't help but wonder about a question——
How strong will I be in a thousand years?
