I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 752: Refining the Divine Whip

What Huli Daxian said was very funny, but Zhang Chen couldn't laugh at all and could only sigh.

He thought of those pampered and cannibalistic masters and devils in his previous life, as well as countless people of noble character and lofty ideals.

"Don't laugh! Those guys are fence-sitters. Wherever they go, there will be unrest. If your demon tribe accepts those fence-sitters, big trouble will happen sooner or later." Zhang Chen reminded Hu Li Daxian: "It's better to kill those people with ulterior motives as soon as possible."

Hu Li Daxian waved his hands upon hearing this: "You don't understand! For the demon race, letting the human nobles bring knowledge and order can make our demon race civilized, make our demon race more intelligent, and form a true civilization, forming a truly complete closed-loop organization. Although those nobles who betrayed the human race are parasites, for the demon race, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

Zhang Chen stopped trying to persuade him after hearing this. What did he care about the future of the demon clan?

He wished that more monsters would die so that he could upgrade the sea of ​​blood to perfection.

"What is the effect of your treasure?" asked the Great Immortal Huli.

"This treasure is called the Divine Whip, and it is used specifically to hit people's souls. It can beat a person's soul into their physical body, and it can also beat the soul out of someone else's physical body." Zhang Chen said.

The "God" in this magic whip does not only refer to the gods, but also includes the "God" in essence, energy and spirit.

"What a treasure! With such magical powers, isn't it possible to restrain steel bones and indestructible golden bodies?" When the Great Immortal Huli heard this, he quickly understood the interests involved.

"Yes, no matter how powerful one is, it is nothing but fragile skin in front of this treasure of mine." Zhang Chen's voice was full of pride.

"If I can obtain the blessing of this treasure, perhaps I will have a chance to defeat the Great Sage Master." The voice of the Great Immortal Huli was full of burning passion.

Zhang Chen smiled but said nothing when he heard this. He just changed the subject and started drinking tea with Huli Daxian.

The Great Immortal Huli stayed for another half day, talked a lot with Zhang Chen, and then turned into a wisp of breeze and left.

Seeing the Great Immortal Huli leaving, Zhang Chen took out the divine whip from his sleeve, and saw that the divine whip turned into a size of ten centimeters. Zhang Chen held it in the palm of his hand and looked at it.

After a long while, Zhang Chen sighed quietly and used his magic power to refine the divine whip.

The Divine-Slaying Whip is a treasure refined by Zhang Chen. He has mastered the mantra to control this treasure, so it is certainly not difficult for him to refine it. With the Divine-Slaying Whip, Zhang Chen can refine the treasure with ease.

Time seemed to calm down, and everything was peaceful in Jinling City.

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye. It is now February, with grass growing and birds singing, and a drizzle is falling from the sky.

Zhang Chen looked at the gray drizzle in the distance, his eyes showing a trace of sleepiness. Recently, the magic power consumed in the practice of the God-Slaying Whip was too much, and his soul began to be tired. However, Zhang Chen's achievements were remarkable. The practice of the God-Slaying Whip was completed, and all 36 innate restrictions were mastered by Zhang Chen.

This was originally a treasure he had refined, and he also mastered the mantra to control it. In addition, with the changes in the world, the innate spiritual treasure also sensed that something was wrong and took the initiative to cooperate with Zhang Chen in refining it. In just three months, Zhang Chen completed the refining of the innate spiritual treasure with his meager cultivation level. This was truly a miracle.

The Divine Whip is a weapon, but also a magic weapon. It is something between a weapon and a magic weapon.

When fighting against others, it can be used as a weapon or as a magic weapon to win the battle.

"Brother Zhang, I got a jar of good wine. Can we have a drink?" Chen Ping's voice came from outside the door, and he walked in holding an oil-paper umbrella and a jar of unopened wine.

Zhang Chen did not get up, but sat on the recliner and looked at the other person lazily: "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to thank you. I have now successfully inherited the escort agency and become its chief escort." Chen Ping's voice revealed a hint of pride.

Zhang Chen was surprised when he heard this: "You have already taken control of the escort agency? How is your brother Chen An?"

"I sent him out to look for spiritual medicine for my father under the pretext of doing so." There was a hint of pride in Chen Ping's voice.

Zhang Chen glanced at Chen Ping. There was a mysterious energy flowing around this guy, and the qi and blood in his body were surging. Now he can be called a good fighter. It's just that the opponent has not made a move, and Zhang Chen doesn't know the opponent's current situation.

But if you can master the power of thunder and lightning, how weak can you be?

"This jar of wine has a history of a hundred years. It was buried when my grandfather was born. Unfortunately, my grandfather died on the way to escort the caravan, so he didn't have the chance to drink it." Chen Ping sighed quietly.

Zhang Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this: "That really can be called a fine wine. I really want to try it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping opened the jar and poured out the wine for Zhang Chen. The wine looked like amber and had a slightly sticky texture, which showed that it was indeed fine wine.

The two did not eat the dishes, but just tasted the wine. After three rounds of drinking, Chen Ping said, "I plan to deal with the affairs of the escort agency. After the escort agency is stable, I will go to Longhu Mountain to take the assessment, and then join Longhu Mountain to practice. I have mastered the power of thunder and lightning, which can be regarded as entering the mysterious realm. If I can accept the secret method of Longhu Mountain to practice, my strength will definitely be able to reach a higher level."

Zhang Chen was stunned when he heard this. He was a little surprised. Why did Chen Ping go to Longhu Mountain to practice? What about the darts of the immortal tree coffin?
"The world is in chaos now, and Jinling City will be conquered by the demons in no time. I have already begun to deal with Jinling City's industries in secret. Once I have finished, I will move the escort agency to Kyoto. Those demons are too ferocious. If the Longhu Escort Agency continues to stay in Jinling City, I am afraid it will be slaughtered by the demons." Chen Ping's voice was a little suppressed.

"I have received a promise from a big shot in Kyoto. As long as I accomplish something for him, I will be protected by him in Kyoto in the future. The Dragon and Tiger Escort Agency can be moved to Kyoto and be supported by that big shot." Chen Ping's voice was filled with an inexplicable meaning.

Zhang Chen was thoughtful when he heard this. With his current spiritual agility, he deduced a possibility in an instant: "The noble person the other party mentioned is most likely the chief steward Dugu Qiu. Dugu Qiu asked him to escort the coffin of the immortal tree. As long as he escorted the coffin of the immortal tree to the capital, he would naturally get benefits. Moreover, Dugu Qiu is also a powerful old silver coin. Who would have thought that he would actually transport a treasure like the coffin of the immortal tree to the capital by escorting it in the secular escort agency?"

Everyone in the world thought that the Longevity Tree Coffin had been transported away by Dugu Qiu long ago, but who knew that the Longevity Tree Coffin was still on the way?

"Brother Zhang, please come with me when the time comes. The fall of Jinling City is a matter of time. The beasts of the demon clan are utterly devoid of conscience. Once the demon army sets foot on Jinling territory, they will surely slaughter all the human beings. No one will be spared by then." Chen Ping looked at Zhang Chen.

"When are you leaving?" Zhang Chen asked.

"I will have to wait until the discussion is over after I have dealt with the assets in Jinling." Chen Ping replied.

"Okay! I'll go with you then." Zhang Chen nodded in agreement.

He didn't know the way to Kyoto, so the best option was to follow Chen Ping's escort agency along the way.

Of course, following a mortal might make the journey slower, but Zhang Chen didn't care since he had nothing to do anyway.

Moreover, he had to keep an eye on the Longevity Tree Coffin personally to prevent it from being intercepted by others.

The two chatted for another half day before Chen Ping said goodbye and left, leaving Zhang Chen to fall asleep drunkenly.

Zhang Chen was awakened from his sleep by a loud thunder in the middle of the night. The drizzle outside the door had turned into a downpour. He looked at the heavy rain outside the door, stood up and added oil to the Soul-Blocking Lamp, then continued to lie on the bed and take a nap.

Leaving the vassal states

Inside Changcao Academy

A dim candlelight flickered as Zhou Qiucheng and the dean of Changcao Academy sat opposite each other.

The dean of Changcao Academy opposite Zhou Qiucheng was a muscular man in his fifties. He did not look like a scholar at all, but rather a mighty military general.

"Think about it carefully. Han Suzhen is the only weak spot in Chen Sanliang's heart. If you attack Chen Sanliang's wife, you will definitely anger Chen Sanliang. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. Once something is done, there will be no room for maneuver." Zhou Qiucheng asked.

"If we don't find a way to curb the other party's momentum, Jiangnan Road will be handed over to those who are just sitting there doing nothing. I am willing to be the vanguard and fight for a glimmer of hope for our human race." The dean sighed softly, "But I have to ask Brother Zhou to take care of my family."

"Sir, you are so righteous. You have saved Jiangnan from collapse. Even if I die, I will protect your family." Zhou Qiucheng sighed softly.

The next morning, the rainstorm stopped. Zhang Chen stood up and walked out of the courtyard, and heard the constant chirping of insects in the courtyard.

Zhang Chen was bored, so he sat under the eaves reading. At noon, suddenly a golden light burst out from the direction of Chongzheng Academy, and an infinite divine power rose up and reached the sky.

Zhang Chen turned his head and looked in the direction of Chongzheng Academy, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "The Linglong Tower has grown another layer?"

Originally, Linglong Tower only had twelve floors, but now it has grown two more floors, making a total of fourteen floors.

"Unfortunately, it is of no use in the face of the overall situation!" Zhang Chen shook his head. He did not think it would be of any use for Zhou Qiucheng to grow another layer of Linglong Tower at this time. For Chen Sanliang, there was no difference between the thirteenth floor and the fourteenth floor.

"Brother Zhang, something big has happened!"

Just as Zhang Chen was thinking in his heart, Huang Chao came hurriedly, his voice full of urgency.

"What big thing happened?" Zhang Chen looked at Huang Chao with curiosity. If Huang Chao said it was a big thing, it must not be a small matter.

"Have a glass of water first. It's not too late to talk slowly if you have anything to say." Zhang Chen filled the other party's cup of tea and then patiently persuaded him.

Huang Chao took the tea and took a big gulp. He said with lingering fear, "Something big has happened! Chen Sanliang has declared that he will slaughter all the people in Jiangnan Road and will no longer accept the surrender of Jiangnan scholars."

"What?" Zhang Chen was shocked when he heard this: "How could this happen? Is this news accurate?"
