After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 447: Top of the Martial Arts Ranking! Number One in the World!
"Ethereal Divine Flame?"

When Jiang Che asked about the function of this thing, not to mention Zhao Xianzhi, even the Red Blood Demon Lord was stunned for a moment, as if they did not expect Jiang Che to ask about this thing so suddenly.

After Zhao Xianzhi thought about it seriously for a moment, he shook his head:

“I have heard of the Void Spirit Divine Flame, but it seems that it is just a kind of heaven and earth strange fire. It can be refined for personal use, to protect the way and kill the enemy, but I don’t know much about the rest.

Are you planning to use it to enhance the power of the Yin Yang Demon Flame?"

She knew that Jiang Che's Yin-Yang Demonic Flame ability was extraordinary, especially when used against low-level warriors. It was a powerful weapon that even a venerable at the Yuanshen level could not ignore.

Sometimes it can even seal off the void and trap the Nascent Soul in a cage.

Jiang Che smiled, agreeing to the answer, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his eyes as he looked at the Red Blood Demon Lord. He always felt that the Void Spirit Divine Flame was more than just protecting the way and killing the enemies.

“I have read some introduction in an ancient book before, which said that this Void Spirit Divine Flame is invisible and formless, born from nothingness, and has a miraculous effect on damaging Nascent Soul. It has great lethality and is difficult for ordinary people to refine.

Because of this, this item can also be used to temper the soul, but you need to control the degree, if you are not careful, you may hurt yourself."

"Tempering the spirit?"

When Jiang Che heard this word, a sudden realization emerged in his mind.

Perhaps, the sacrifice requires this thing in order to enhance the fire disaster?

This is not aimless. Although the fire disaster is a calamity, it is also an opportunity. If one can survive the fire disaster, one can transform the Nascent Soul into a Yin God. The longer one is tempered, the more solid the foundation will be.

There are many spiritual objects in the world that can temper the spirit, but using this method is still too dangerous.

But when he thought that it was needed for sacrifice to the Heavenly Monument, he felt relieved.

He had made so many sacrifices and never encountered any accidents.

“Yes, if you think your soul is strong, you can use external forces to temper your soul. This will be beneficial for overcoming the heavenly thunder tribulation in the future. However, I do not recommend you to use this method.

You haven’t achieved the Yuan Shen yet, and the Void Spirit Divine Flame might burn your Yuan Ying if you’re not careful.”

"Don't worry about this, senior. However, do you know where this thing is? I can't use it now, but I may be able to use it in the future." Jiang Che gave the reason why he was preparing to overcome the tribulation.

Although it was a bit urgent, in the eyes of the Red Blood Demon Lord he was already used to it.

Because Jiang Che just likes to give people unexpected surprises again and again.

"This thing is quite rare. So far, I am not sure where to find it. Maybe it may be found in the outer region of the strong wind," said the Red Blood Demon Lord with a smile.

Jiang Che frowned.

If that's the case, it would be a real problem.

Because for a grand master at the divine realm, even if he is a venerable soul master who has experienced the calamity of wind and fire, it is difficult to go to the outer wind at the top of the heaven and earth to collect spiritual objects.

In other words, warriors of this level simply cannot hold on for long.

Only after experiencing the tribulation of thunder and transforming the Yin God into a Yang God can one ignore the threat of the strong wind.

But Yang Shen is already a powerful Martial Saint.

Jiang Che really didn't have the qualifications to ask a Martial Saint to go outside the domain to try his luck in finding the Void Spirit Divine Flame. If he just wanted to ask someone to go out once, he could ask the ancestor of the Qi family.

But it is basically impossible to trouble a martial saint to try his luck.

Unless someone is willing to give up his practice time for him, but the problem is that he can't wait that long. After thinking about it, Jiang Che feels that if it really doesn't work, forced sacrifice is not a bad idea.

Having lived more than a hundred years longer, Jiang Che has become more confident.

"How come, Fellow Daoist Ao Kun knows?" Jiang Che was just thinking when suddenly, the Red Blood Demon Lord turned his gaze to the bearded man in black robe who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

And this is the human form transformed by Ao Kun.

"The virtual spirit divine flame that the master mentioned, I saw it with my own eyes hundreds of years ago, but I'm not sure if it still exists now." Ao Kun whispered.

It seems that there is some lack of confidence.

"Where is it? Daoist Ao Kun, please tell me."

Jiang Che said immediately.

Even if it's just a possibility, it's better than having no clue at all.

“Hundreds of years ago, when I was traveling across Baiyue, I discovered a void crack deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. The heaven and earth there were unstable, the void was in disorder, and it could be called a very dangerous place.

There I unexpectedly encountered a ball of void fire and was unintentionally contaminated by it. If I had not escaped in time, I would have almost burned the demon soul. I didn’t take it seriously at the time, but later I realized that the thing was most likely the void spirit divine flame born from nothingness.

At that time, I was thinking of conquering him, but unfortunately, I was ambushed by a few bald monks from Tianlong Temple."

Ao Kun carefully recounted some of the past events. Through his description, Jiang Che also determined that the ball of nothingness fire was most likely the Void Spirit Divine Flame.

However, the depths of the Ten Thousand Mountains are a dangerous place.

These words still made Jiang Che suspect that Ao Kun wanted to take the opportunity to lure him over and get rid of his control.
"Now that you put it that way, it is indeed possible. There are records in the ancient books in Lingjian Mountain that any place where the void is disordered and the space is unstable may give birth to the Void Spirit Flame over time."

Zhao Xianzhi seemed to have thought of something and interjected.

"I see."

Jiang Che narrowed his eyes in thought.

And Ao Kun continued:

"After all, it has been hundreds of years. I am not sure if that thing still exists. My Lord, don't hold out too much hope."

Jiang Che smiled at him when he heard this:

"Don't worry, Daoist Ao Kun. Even if there is nothing there, I will not blame you for this."

During the conversation, Jiang Che not only mentioned the Xu Ling Divine Flame, but also asked Zhao Xianzhi and others about the Jiuyou True Blood Tree, the Evil-Repelling Thunder Heart Pearl, and the Tiangang Yang Yuan Grass.

However, it is a pity that apart from the Tiangang Yangyuan Grass, which has some clues, no one has any idea about the other two kinds of sacrifices.

Because these two things, one is a top-notch spiritual object for overcoming tribulations, and the other is a treasure that needs to be inherited by a family sect, the news about them will not spread easily.

However, the Red Blood Demon Lord was still very happy. He mistakenly believed that Jiang Che was looking for the Nine Nether True Blood Tree in order to help him forge a physical body. He even said that Jiang Che kept his promise, which made Jiang Che feel a little amused and helpless for a moment.

Of course, it’s not that he didn’t want to help the Red Blood Demon Lord. In fact, he had been planning for the other party since a long time ago. It’s a pity that the treasure for rebuilding the body is no less precious than his sacrifice.

There is no leader yet.

For this purpose, Jiang Che specially summoned Liu Sanqiu and prepared to use the channels of the Black Ya. After all, the intelligence capabilities of the Black Ya were unprecedented in his life. With the support of this force, he felt that it would be somewhat convenient.

The reason why it was Liu Sanqiu was that although he had previously ordered several people to prepare to release the news and confiscate Li Chengguo's military power, it was Zhou Xuan and Yu Weishui who set off.

Liu Sanqiu stayed in Tianlong Temple to deal with the aftermath.

"What's the news from Zhou Xuan?" Jiang Che did not ask directly, but first mentioned the mission of Zhou Xuan and others. Since he started his retreat, more than half a day has passed, which is a long time for a grandmaster.

This time is not short.

“Reporting to the Divine Envoy, up to now, the Suzaku Division has reported this matter to the court through special channels, but has not received a reply yet, and the news has only spread within Yuezhou.

If it is to spread to the three states in the southern region, even the Hei Ya will need several days.

However, Deputy Envoy Zhou Xuan has been constantly consolidating some power in various places, and has also captured several prefectural commanders who were loyal to Li Chengguo.

Currently heading to Yuezhou City."

Liu Sanqiu reported the progress in detail.

After the battle at Tianlong Temple, he was basically completely convinced of Jiang Che. He didn't dare to show any disrespect to him, let alone take advantage of his seniority.

Of course, this had never happened before.

Jiang Che tapped the table with his fingertips and said calmly:
"Tell Zhou Xuan and the others to be careful of Li Chengguo and others who may take desperate measures, but when necessary, they should still put their own safety first. If the situation becomes bad, withdraw immediately."

"Yes, I understand."

Jiang Che didn't need to say these words. Liu Sanqiu and others also knew that they could sell their lives, but if they lost their lives, that would not be good. They would not really fight to the death for this matter.

"By the way, Deputy Envoy Liu has been in the Black Court for many years and is very experienced. Have you ever heard of the Nine Nether True Blood Tree, the Thunder Heart Beads that Exorcise Evil Spirits, and the Tiangang Yang Yuan Grass?" After finishing the business, Jiang Che immediately asked about the sacrifice.

Liu Sanqiu frowned, thinking about the question asked by Jiang Che, and shook his head slightly after a moment:

“Forgive my ignorance. Although I have heard of the Evil-Repelling Thunder Heart Pearl and the Nine Nether True Blood Tree, I really don’t know where these two things are. If you need them urgently, my lord.

I immediately sent someone to look for it. As for the Tiangang Yangyuan grass, there are actually several old ones in Tianlong Temple."

"Is there Tiangang Yangyuan Grass in Tianlong Temple?"

Jiang Che really didn't expect this.

A Tianlong Temple actually brought him two kinds of sacrifices.

It really was worth the trip!
Although the Tiangang Yangyuan Grass is not as precious as the other offerings, it is not an ordinary thing either. He thought it would take some time to obtain it, but he did not expect to get it without any effort.

“Yes, most of the monks in Tianlong Temple practice Buddhist techniques and focus on physical training. Tiangang Yuanyang Grass is a precious medicine that is more suitable for Tianlong Temple’s techniques.

A total of three plants were picked from the medicine garden, one of which was nearly two thousand years old, and two were around a thousand years old. In addition, there were some Yuanyang grass that were several hundred years old, but we did not pick them.

If the envoy of God needs it, I will immediately order someone to collect it."

“No need, just take the two thousand year old Tian Gang Yuan Yang grass, and the rest will be included in the harvest of this battle.

"Yes."

"Okay, Deputy Envoy Liu, you can go and get busy first. Remember to focus on investigating the traces of the Nine Nether True Blood Tree and the Evil-Repelling Thunder Heart Pearl. These items are very important to me." Jiang Che warned.

"Yes, I understand!"

Time passes slowly.

In the blink of an eye, several days passed.

In the past few days, several major events have occurred one after another, shocking Yuezhou and even the three states in the southern region.

The first thing was that Jiang Che personally massacred the entire Tianlong Temple, which instantly caused a huge wave in the Yuezhou martial arts world, even more shocking than the previous demise of the Longhu Taoist Sect.

The reason is simple. Although the Longhu Taoist Sect once had a Martial Saint, it declined later and was destroyed by the Beiling Qi family. This is understandable, but it is different for the Tianlong Temple.

It is not an independent sect, but a Buddhist tradition and a vassal of the Great Leiyin Temple.

Destroying Tianlong Temple is equivalent to targeting Buddhism.

A hundred years ago, there was a force that opposed the Buddhist orthodoxy and even massacred the sect. But then, Buddhism and the Leiyin Temple were furious and directly sent out Bodhisattvas to take action.

Destroy the attacking forces with the force of thunder.

Such brutal revenge made all the forces in the martial arts world begin to pay attention to the Buddhist tradition, especially the top Buddhist tradition in a state. If there was no deep hatred, they would never go to war or become enemies.

It is precisely because of this that the Buddhist tradition has developed the arrogance of being high-handed and always clamoring to slay demons and eliminate evil.

And now, a hundred years have passed.

Yet another branch of the Buddhist sect was destroyed, with no one left alive. This made countless martial artists both excited and horrified. They were looking forward to what would happen next, wanting to witness a shocking battle.

As for the reason, it is because Jiang Che is not an unknown person either.

He is a high-ranking official in the imperial court and a frontier governor, and behind him stands the support of the Godly King Ji Chengdao and the Beiling Qi family. It makes people feel that both sides are evenly matched and each is extraordinary.

Some people even gloated over his misfortune, hoping that Buddhism could suppress Jiang Che with a thunderous force, defend the pressure of the Buddhist orthodoxy, and it would be best if both sides suffered losses.

But before those people in the underworld could recover from the shock of this incident, the imperial court immediately made a judgment on the matter, saying that the Tianlong Temple had committed many evil deeds and should be destroyed.

Jiang Che exposed his own strength in this battle. He first killed Wuming Arhat, and then beheaded the abbot of Tianlong Temple, Wuchen Arhat. He was even directly recommended to the top of the list by the imperial court.

Ranked 19th on the list.

At the same time, he was also the first grandmaster to be listed on the Fengyun List with his Dharma cultivation. For a moment, countless people were shocked, and many people remembered the time when Jiang Che was ranked first on the Qianlong List.

There was only less than half a year between the two.

Countless people were amazed at Jiang Che's talent.

Some nosy martial artists were still discussing whether Jiang Che should have a title.

Because Venerable is not a realm of martial arts, but just a respectful title for the great master of the soul by people in the martial arts world. In other words, Jiang Che now not only possesses the combat power of the Venerable level.

He is also ranked in the middle of the list and is qualified to have a title.

Many young geniuses who had participated in the Martial Realm Battle with Jiang Che felt a little dazed and unfamiliar.

He was competing with them on the same stage not long ago, but now he is directly on the list?

How could there be such a monstrous person in this world?

The others didn't notice, but news came from Wuji Palace. After hearing the news, Li Xuanzhen directly announced that he would go into seclusion and would not come out until he entered the Dharma realm. In addition to Li Xuanzhen, Jiang Ping from Bailu Academy also did the same.

It was Lu Jieyun who spoke up:

"Jiang Che's appearance is rare in the past five hundred years. He is the best in the world!"
