Who let him join the Sword Sect!

Chapter 536 Mr. Zhang, the Good Samaritan
Tian Shu City beneath Bai Yu Jing.

This place had already been completely controlled by Zhang Ze when he arrived, and was now under the control of the Six Sects.

The Tower of Babel was also sealed by the combined efforts of several elders and entered a state of silence.

So, feeling safe, Lily took Mao Mao by the hand and a small stick and started strolling around the streets, looking for a place where she could get some valuable hand-held items to play with.

While walking her dog and searching for her baby, she suddenly felt a pang of anxiety.

Lily subconsciously looked up at the sky, and after just one glance, she froze on the spot.

Looking at the object in the sky, Lily felt that following the boss meant she could see all sorts of strange things.

At this moment, the appearance of the Jade Palace at the very center of the Holy Land changed.

The blazing flames burning outside Baiyujing suddenly went out, and then Baiyujing began to split apart.

Two orbs of light, one black and one white, stretched out to the left and right, still connected by a thin veil, but just as they were about to separate completely, they suddenly merged again.

Finally, the white jade statue suspended in the sky turned into a gray peanut.

Looking at the peanut, Lily held down the eager-to-eat furry boy beside her, "Don't eat it, that's not for eating."

After Momo was sent out by Fuji ahead of time, it became very restless and a little too excited.

Holding onto the fluffy dog ​​leash, Lily continued to look up at the sky, staring at the strange peanut, and suddenly felt uneasy.

"Oh no, is something wrong with the boss?"

Thinking of this, she quickly put on her pointed hat and tried to contact Fu Ji, but there was no response.

He jumped down from the wall and searched around, but found nothing; it was as if all the rotten princesses had vanished.

The unusual activity in Baiyujing naturally attracted the attention of the cultivators from the six sects who had already settled in Tianshu City. No fewer than a dozen people had taken to the air to check on the situation.

However, before these people could fly very far, they were stopped by the elders of their sect.

Lily had excellent eyesight; she squinted and looked closely, noticing that the elders' expressions were quite unpleasant.

Without thinking further, Lily grabbed Mao Mao and ran towards the street, intending to go back and ask Old Tang what had happened.

However, before she could run two steps, she suddenly stopped and was then pulled in the opposite direction by Mao Mao's strong force. The force was so great that Lily almost bit her tongue.

"Mao Mao, oh my god!"

Lily, who was about to scold Mao Mao for causing trouble, swallowed her words back before she could even utter them.

Mao Mao's reverse burst saved her life.

Where she had just stood, the house had completely collapsed, and a charred mass fell out from the white jade palace that had turned into a peanut.

If it weren't for the elders in the sky intervening, even with Mao Mao's foresight, Lily would likely have been crushed into a pulp.

"What is this? What is this?" Lily stood to the side, at a loss, not daring to approach.

The thing was a lump of porridge, completely charred black, with no discernible shape, like a bundle of hemp rope wrapped around a sack, inside which were bricks and a statue of a roc spreading its wings.

It's hard to comment.

Fortunately, Old Tang and the others soon appeared beside Lily. Old Tang patted Lily's shoulder, pulled her aside, and signaled her to calm down and not panic.

Master Cheng arrived shortly afterward, and he flew into the sky with several friends from the Sword Sect and the Celestial Master from Longhu Mountain, keeping a watchful eye on Bai Yujing's strange behavior.

The people from Medicine King Valley and Beast Taming Sect, with solemn expressions, quickly approached the charred object.

As one magical artifact after another was unleashed and various healing spells were cast, the charred mass finally revealed its true form.

The charred object was none other than the severely injured Zhu Luo.

Its entire dragon body twisted unnaturally, and between the dragon body was Lu Yuzhou's almost shattered starlight body.

The two enormous bodies seemed to have merged in some way; the point of contact was a bloody mess, fused together.

Upon closer inspection, her and Zhu Luo's physical forms were covered with scattered wounds, each shimmering with starlight.

Those dim starlight, like maggots clinging to the bone, prevent the wound from healing, and can only suppress it but cannot remove it.

Upon seeing this, an elder from Medicine King Valley raised the divine sword he had bought from the Sword Sect, intending to separate the two of them first.

But unexpectedly, before he could even begin the surgery, he heard Lu Yuzhou say something.

"Don't panic! This sect master isn't going to die!"

A slender, charred arm emerged from under Zhu Luo's dragon body. After moving her wrist, Lu Yuzhou formed a hand seal, and circles of arrays spread out from her fingertips.

After the magic circle completely covered her and Zhu Luo's bodies, she snapped her fingers, and the magic circle collapsed.

At the same time, all the wounds on Zhu Luo's body were transferred to her.

As the injury transferred, she let out a painful groan.

Lu Yuzhou muttered under his breath, "Whatever, let's go!"

After saying that, the almost disintegrating starlight body began to collapse and vanish.

And those strange forces that could not be eliminated by normal means disappeared along with the annihilation of the Starlight Body.

Although it was her first time, she succeeded.

She discarded this starlight body and returned to her original form.

Having successfully transformed back into his original form, Lu Yuzhou covered his mouth and stumbled out from between Zhu Luo's folded limbs.

She coughed lightly, then bent down again and lifted Qin Lang, whose head had been beaten into a pig's head, and Wei Zhuang, whose arm had been broken, onto Zhu Luo's back.

"Treat their injuries first, and save Zhu Luo. I'm fine."

"What exactly happened?" Old Tang asked, stepping forward with a grave expression.

"Damn it, Xiao Jing is alive. We were tricked by him." Lu Yuzhou covered his mouth, pausing after each sentence.

Old Tang, "Could it be that his level of attainment..."

Lu Yuzhou: "What kind of bullshit realm is this? A resurrected ghost dares to peek into the Great Dao? What hurt us was the knife in his hand."

Old Tang, "A knife?"

"It's just shaped like a knife, cough cough."

Lu Yuzhou coughed for a while, expelling bursts of black smoke.

However, after the black energy was expelled, her expression relaxed slightly, and then Lu Yuzhou continued.

"I suspect that thing is related to the Earth Sea, and is very likely a fragment formed by the condensation of the Earth Sea tides."

"It's utterly unstoppable, regardless of cultivation level. A single touch from that thing is either fatal or severely injured. Otherwise..."

Before Lu Yuzhou could finish speaking, Lily interrupted from the side.

"Um, old man, I mean, how is Zhang Ze?"

Lily was standing to one side in a bit of a panic, her eyes darting left and right. Although she was talking to Lu Yuzhou, her eyes kept glancing at Zhu Luo.

Treatment is underway over there. Because most of Zhu Luo's injuries have been transferred, he has already woken up and returned to his old tortoise form. Although he is somewhat weak, his life is no longer in danger.

Wei Zhuang also woke up; his hand was completely severed. Although Lu Yuzhou had removed the eerie starlight clinging to it, it was impossible for it to recover immediately.

It's estimated that it will be interrupted for a while.

The only one who hadn't woken up was Qin Lang. Although he was physically intact, he seemed to be the one who was most seriously injured.

No matter how many times she looked, Lily couldn't find her boss, Zhang Ze.

"He," Lu Yuzhou looked up at Bai Yujing, which had turned into a peanut in the sky, "is still there."

north.

The junior sister is examining her good senior brother's belongings from the early Eastern Qi Dynasty at the museum, such as his used water cups and toothbrushes.

However, she seemed somewhat distracted, and the monkey demon commentator's voice quickly drifted away like willow catkins in the wind.

Suddenly, she grabbed Li Yueqi, who was stamping postcards, and said, "I want to go home!"

After saying that, he turned and left without waiting for Li Yueqi's reply.

The junior sister's escape technique activated the magic circle in the museum, causing red light to flash and alarms to sound.

Li Yueqi thought for a moment, then threw away the postcard that was half-stamped and chased after it.

Qianji Pavilion.

Xiangxiang is having a meeting with the weapon spirits and sword spirits of Qianji Pavilion to discuss the arrangements for civil engineering in the coming year.

It's not some idle, haphazard project like the demon race's iceberg magma-pouring project, but a proper infrastructure plan.

Centered on Qingjing, the infrastructure based on the Thousand Machines Magic Artifacts will be extended to the entire Eastern Continent to cope with various situations that may arise in the future.

At this moment, they were discussing how to make the Thousand Machines Pavilion stand up again.

But she stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.

"Meeting adjourned, I have some things to take care of."

Without further explanation, Xiangxiang's projection disappeared as if the power had been cut off.

Beyond the sky.

In the distant starry sky beyond the Four Continents, Mr. Chen Qianhu, the father-in-law who had been immersed in cultivation and had been offline for a long time in order to break through to the Great Ascension realm, suddenly opened his eyes. He got up from the former site of the Hundred Demon Sect's outer heaven headquarters, which he had already reduced to ruins, and turned to look in the direction of the Four Continents.

After looking at it for a long time, he sat down again and took out a tattered book from his pocket.

That book, *The Path to Immortality*, which Zhang Ze made up.

He had torn the book almost to shreds by then, leaving only the last page.

Looking at this last page, which he wasn't sure would ever be updated again, Chen Qianhu tore it off.

After carefully folding the page of the book into a paper sword with his hands, Commander Chen whispered.

"It's good that it started and ended."

With that, he waved it lightly, and the paper sword disappeared into the void, vanishing without a trace, as if it had never existed.

Inside the peanut-shaped Jade Palace.

At this moment, the interior of Baiyujing was as chaotic as chicken eggs; the space that was originally clearly divided into black and white was now indistinguishable.

At the critical moment, Fu Ji and Dai Dai Ji made a choice at the same time: to save Zhang Ze's life by merging and returning to their original state.

Fu Ji then escorted Lu Yuzhou and the others, who had been seriously injured while trying to stop them, out of the way.

Following Zhang Ze's instructions, the soon-to-be-split Baiyujing was then reassembled and sealed off.

Although it was only a temporary fusion, Zhang Ze also entered a brief state of invincibility.

As long as the energy Bai Yujing has accumulated over countless years is not exhausted, Zhang Ze will not die.

During this period, any injury, regardless of its severity, will heal.

As long as Zhang Ze lives, Xiao Jing will be unable to leave Baiyujing.

However, Zhang Ze in this state is not without weaknesses, namely that his cultivation level will not improve due to this fusion.

He did not rise through the ranks three times to reach the Mahayana level.

For Xiao Jing, he was somewhat of a toy, but just a punching bag that needed to be hit for a long time.

Fortunately, Daidai Ji was clever; when she merged with the body, she brought along the souls of those old Deng as well.

Now, Zhang Ze's body is just like Ultraman Tiga in the finale, a golden expanse filled with Old Deng, who has turned into light.

As they moved and cast spells, the old men took turns giving him power, or logging in to fight for him.

With the help of these enlightened beings who had transcended tribulations, Zhang Ze's moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic, and labor skills were developed in an all-round way.

Having become the "good guy," Zhang Ze took a step back and looked at Xiao Jing warily.

With a gentle touch of his right hand, the huge wound on his chest and abdomen began to heal; the mycelium wriggled and it quickly returned to normal.

This time, however, Xiao Jing did not launch an attack.

He held the broken blade in his hand up to his eyes, admiring it with fascination. After a moment, he spoke.

"In the primordial era, the earth and sea surged, and all living beings mended the sky. The ripples of the earth and sea merged with the sky and transformed into this blade."

"In the third year of the Shenwu era, this blade descended from the sky and fell upon the Baiyujing, the imperial city of my Eastern Qi. Do you know what this signifies?"

Zhang Ze remained silent in the face of Xiao Jing's question.

It wasn't that he was pretending to be an expert by not speaking, or that he disdained communicating with such petty people; it was simply that he didn't know what year the third year of Shenwu was.

Fortunately, Zhang Ze had many knowledgeable old men inside him at this time.

Amidst the chatter of the old men, Zhang Ze gleaned the key words.

In the third year of Shenwu, the demon race's royal city, Baidi City, was devoured by a giant square-shaped demon boar.

If we calculate it that way...
This broken sword is a fragment from when the sky was mended. Because it was not hung securely, it fell from the sky in the third year of Shenwu and landed right in Baiyujing.

The resulting abnormal fluctuations in the sea spread northward, awakening a square-shaped pig and Xiangxiang.

'Could it be that the Xiao family has passed down the knowledge of Xiao Jing regarding the Holy Land and the Earth Sea through this object?'

"Hey! Watch your mouth when you're talking badly! I can hear you!" Ah Li's beeping voice echoed in Zhang Ze's mind.

It too is one that transforms into light.

"I didn't say it was a square-shaped giant pig demon, it was Senior Lu Tianming who said it. If you're not convinced, go find her."

Ah Li scoffed, muttered a couple more words under her breath, and then fell silent.

Meanwhile, Xiao Jing, seeing that Zhang Ze didn't speak, didn't care and continued talking to himself.

"This means that I am destiny!"

With that, he swung his short knife, and a huge wound suddenly appeared on Zhang Ze's body again, almost cutting him in half at the waist.

Xiao Jing pointed at Zhang Ze again, "Since destiny is on my side, why don't you surrender?"

Zhang Ze, whose body had been restored, looked at Xiao Jing, who was immersed in his art and oblivious to the world, and finally spoke his first words after the fusion.

"Are you an idiot? What the hell are you talking about? You know villains die from talking too much?"

Xiao Jing, "?"

Zhang Ze ignored Xiao Jing's stiff expression and continued, "That broken knife is indeed sharp, but it must have been very sharp as well."

"Otherwise, why would you hide here and act like a coward? Just take this broken knife and go out to slaughter all the living beings on the four continents. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Zhang Ze stared at Xiao Jing's hand holding the knife. With each swing, Xiao Jing's tiger's mouth would break a little, and his almost perfect body would dim for a moment.

The fragments materialized from the fusion of the ripples in the sea and the sky are indeed invincible, but they also constantly backfire on their master.

"Come on, let's wear each other down and see who can outlast us. Will you be the first to be attacked by that broken blade, or will I be the first to be killed by you?"

After saying that, Zhang Ze's body began to change, his pectoral muscles became thicker and his figure became more alluring.

Zhang Ze's personality is temporarily offline, and Lu Tianming's personality, Tangtang, makes its debut.

It's time for Old Deng to substitute.

The Great Brightness Heaven-Opening Sword appeared in Lu Tianming's hand, and she pointed it at Xiao Jing.

"You son of a bitch, Xiao Jing, come and fight!"

Xiao Jing stared at Zhang Ze, who had hired someone to play for him, with a gloomy look in his eyes.

This time, he didn't swing his sword. Instead, he made a fist with his palm, and an endless expanse of space began to spread outwards from beneath him.

A quarter of an hour later.
Lu Tianming was sent flying.

"Damn it, if you're so capable, throw away that damn knife and I'll replace you with someone else!"

Amidst Lu Tianming's uncouth and grumbling, she abruptly logged off. Zhang Ze's shared character's body also changed once again, transforming into the appearance of Lu Tianming's master, the little old man.

As for Zhang Ze, who was temporarily offline, he was not idle. He turned down the brightness of the golden space in his body, and then, while holding Ah Li, he watched Master Lu Tianming fight for him and fell into deep thought.

Lu Tianming, who had just been beaten up and taken offline, came to Zhang Ze's side and frowned slightly.

"Although it's a bit embarrassing, it seems we can't outlast him. If we keep fighting, we'll definitely lose."

Zhang Ze: "I know."

Lu Tianming: "Then why don't you think of a solution?"

"I'm trying to figure something out." Zhang Ze squinted, sharing the pain of his combined body being pierced by the demonic blade, and said softly.

"Xiao Jing planned everything just to become like me now."

"This is his first step toward immortality, his diapers. This body shouldn't be this weak."

"This body is perfect in Xiao Jing's eyes, and how could a perfect body that can prove the Great Dao be harmed by that broken sword?"

"Furthermore, I can now indeed sense that the key to breaking and restraining that broken sword lies hidden within this body."

"He advised me to surrender, and that's why he didn't want to waste time with me."

"I'm almost there, the key."

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianming quickly shut up.

As time goes by, half of the 314 veterans have already taken the stage.

Some cultivators at the Tribulation Transcending stage were taken down with a single strike as soon as they entered the arena, and currently the team is relying on the few cultivators at the Mahayana stage to hold on.

However, just as Lu Tianming had finished warming up and was preparing to make his second appearance, Zhang Ze, who had been in a daze for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes.

"I understand."

Having said that, he, as the main character of this body, went online with great force.

After Zhang Ze went back online, the invincible magic blade encountered its first obstacle.

Zhang Ze held it tightly in his hand.

But Zhang Ze's hand was unharmed.

Zhang Ze smiled at Xiao Jing, then roared, "Fuck you, Xiao Jing, come and fight!"

Although Zhang Ze's battle cry wasn't as powerful as Lu Tianming's, he still landed a solid punch on Xiao Jing's face.
