Zombie King: Picking up a baby at the beginning is the reincarnation of the empress

Chapter 513 The Treasure for Breaking Through to the Ninth Rank!
At this moment, the zombie horde was approaching Hai Province. Lu Chuan and Ji Ruxue chose to stop on a flat wasteland to rest for a while.

In the open space in the center of the zombie horde, there was a temporary camp.

Ji Ruxue was in the tent, holding tools, intently dealing with the demonic core of the Crimson Scaled Dragon.

These demonic cores come from a seventh-tier dragon, and the energy they contain is incredibly violent.

If not handled properly, these demonic cores could even explode with tremendous force, potentially injuring even the father and daughter.

Outside the tent, Lu Chuan was sitting in front of the barbecue grill, busy with his work.

The charcoal fire glowed a deep red, and the dragon meat skewered on the iron sticks released a rich aroma as it was heated by the fire.

The dragon meat, brimming with energy, looks like irregular pieces of red gemstones, emitting a faint red glow that whets the appetite.

As the charcoal fire continued to sizzle, the aroma of the dragon meat skewers grew stronger and stronger, wafting in all directions.

"As expected of meat skewers made from the flesh and blood of a giant dragon, the mere aroma alone is enough to make one's body instinctively throb."

Lu Chuan picked up a skewer of grilled dragon meat and looked at the fragrant skewers without any added seasoning, feeling a sense of awe.

With a flicker of his eyes, Lu Chuan picked up a piece and chewed it.

Instantly, his entire mouth was filled with the aroma of meat. Lu Chuan chewed a few times and swallowed it with satisfaction.

Feeling the dragon meat skewers quickly transform into surging energy after being swallowed, flowing into his meridians, and even experiencing a slight improvement in his cultivation level, Lu Chuan's lips curled up slightly.

However, his cultivation level mainly relies on krypton crystal cores for advancement, so he doesn't really need these dragon meat skewers.

After finishing the dragon meat skewers in his hand, Lu Chuan stopped eating and instead quickly grilled all the remaining dragon meat skewers for Xiao Qiqi to eat.

It is believed that after eating all of these dragon meat skewers, Xiao Qiqi's cultivation level should increase significantly.

Time passed slowly, and after adding charcoal three times, the hundreds of lamb skewers were finally grilled.

Using the power of the Corpse King and switching to Flame Number One, Lu Chuan conjured a ball of flame, which he then swept over the skewers that had cooled down from the earlier grilling, reheating them.

"Qiqi, come out and eat dragon meat skewers!"

After completing all this, Lu Chuan shouted to the tent behind him with a smile.

"Okay, Dad, I'm here!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruxue responded first, and then carefully put down the tools in her hands.

Then, he quickly ran out.

Looking at the fragrant, bright red, and incredibly tempting dragon meat skewers in her father's hands, Ji Ruxue's eyes lit up.

Dragon meat! The aroma is simply divine!

It should be noted that during the invasion of alien races, the human race collapsed too quickly in the previous life, resulting in a continuous contraction of the battle lines. Even after Ji Ruxue became an empress, she never ate dragon meat even once!
Unexpectedly, after being reborn, he had the opportunity to taste it.

"Want to try some?"

Looking at Xiao Qiqi walking over, Lu Chuan smiled and took a skewer from the plate and handed it to her.

"Thank you dad!"

Ji Ruxue, whose mouth was already watering, took it and started to taste it.

With one bite, Ji Ruxue felt her cultivation level increase and became instantly excited. In a few quick movements, she swallowed the nearly half-pound meat skewer on the iron skewer.

"Hehe, it tastes good, doesn't it? Don't rush, these are all yours!"

Seeing Xiao Qiqi's reaction, Lu Chuan chuckled and said. Looking at the mountain of dragon meat skewers on the plate, Ji Ruxue nodded hurriedly, quickly walked to the table, sat down, and began to eat heartily.

Lu Chuan sat beside her, watching Xiao Qiqi eat lamb skewers with a gentle expression.

Just then, Lu Chuan suddenly turned serious, closed his eyes, and seemed to be sensing something.

A few minutes later, as if he had a definite answer, Lu Chuan frowned.

Ji Ruxue, who was enjoying a skewer of dragon meat, put down her half-eaten skewer upon seeing this scene and asked, "Dad, what's wrong? Is it because the search for the spatial rift isn't going well?"

"Yes, we've searched the entire area, but we haven't found that spatial rift!" Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan nodded and said in a deep voice.

After killing the four crimson-scaled dragons, Lu Chuan naturally did not forget the spatial rift through which the dragons had passed.

Originally, he had planned to kill all the other Crimson Scaled Dragons once he discovered the location of the spatial rift.

Unexpectedly, the tens of thousands of corpse puppets sent out to search almost the entire Laiyuan City still could not find the spatial rift.

“Dad, this is normal. The dragon race is different from other races. These guys like to travel around and occupy their own territory. So that void rift is very likely not in Kaiyuan City.”

Ji Ruxue explained to Lu Chuan.

Remembering that Xiao Qiqi had told him about the cleansing of the dragon race before, Lu Chuan nodded and gave up on continuing his search.

"Eat up! We'll set off again after we finish eating!"

Then, glancing at the few remaining dragon meat skewers on the plate, Lu Chuan said.

"Mmm!" Ji Ruxue nodded and immediately sped up her pace, quickly finishing the remaining dragon meat skewers into her round little belly.

After eating over a hundred skewers of dragon meat, Ji Ruxue's aura noticeably increased.

"By the way, Little Qiqi, do you know what treasures are hidden in those ancient ruins?"

Speaking of ancient ruins, a question suddenly arose in Lu Chuan's mind. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask Xiao Qiqi about it.

Although he learned from Xiao Qiqi that there were treasures and great opportunities in the ancient ruins, he was still completely clueless about what those treasures actually were.

"Dad, there are treasures in those ancient ruins that can help you break through to the ninth rank!"

Upon hearing this, and seeing that they were about to arrive in Hai Province, Ji Ruxue chose to reveal the answer directly, her eyes filled with reminiscence as she spoke.

In her previous life, she was able to break through to the ninth-order Emperor Realm because she entered this ruin and obtained a precious opportunity!

"A treasure that can help you break through to the ninth rank? Then let's speed things up and set off! We don't need to stop and rest anymore."

Upon hearing that such a treasure was hidden in the ruins, Lu Chuan immediately became interested and couldn't wait to find it.

Unexpectedly, Ji Ruxue looked at the sky and shook her head.

"Dad, there's no need to rush. That ancient ruin can only be entered on the night of the full moon."

Even after we arrive in Hai Province, we'll still need to wait a week.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan felt a chill in his heart and could only nod helplessly in the end.

"Dad, my cultivation is almost at the eighth-order barrier, so I want to go into seclusion for a few days to try to break through to the eighth order before heading to that ancient ruin." Ji Ruxue then revealed her thoughts.

"It's alright, just focus on your breakthrough! Dad will protect you."

Knowing that he couldn't go in for the time being, Lu Chuan wasn't in a hurry. Hearing Xiao Qiqi's decision, he nodded immediately.
