Chapter 279 Zhongzhou Ancestral Temple
The wind in Beidou is a bit noisy.

The clouds in the dojo are still quiet and beautiful.

But the noisy wind can make people grow, while the quiet clouds cannot carry people to fly.

In Zhongzhou, the news of the birth of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple became the new center of attention in just over a month.

It seems that if you don't participate in this event, you will miss countless opportunities.

Therefore, the appearance of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple directly attracted countless monks to join in the fun.

The Yuhua Divine Dynasty, which included most of Zhongzhou in its territory, ruled over countless mountains and rivers, and pursued immortality, was a larger existence than the four immortal dynasties in Zhongzhou today.
At that time, the Yuhua Divine Dynasty not only controlled the imperial weapons left by Emperor Yuhua, but also a broken immortality cauldron.

His power is so strong that no one in the world dares to disobey his orders.

Even the influence of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty has exceeded the ancient star of Beidou, and has left legends on one ancient life star after another in the universe.

The location of the ancestral temple of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty is naturally extraordinary. It is located in the heart of the Zhongzhou Ancestral Dragon Vein. It has taken advantage of all the good fortune of heaven and earth and all the mysteries of the sun and the moon. It is a place that goes against the will of heaven and is where immortals are conceived.

Li Zhi brought the little Qilin beast across the void to Zhongzhou and landed directly on the ancestral vein of Zhongzhou.

"Boss Changshou, is this the ancestral vein occupied by the Yuhua Divine Dynasty? Why is it so gloomy, as if we have come to the underworld?" After walking out of the domain gate, what came into view was not the pure land of creation with rising dragon energy, nor was it the familiar land of Zhongzhou, which made the little Qilin feel uncomfortable.

"This is the mountain range where the Yuhua Ancestral Temple is located. If it weren't for the harsh environment, how could the temple have been preserved until now?" Li Zhi took a look at the surrounding environment. It was indeed a nightmare.

The Yuhua Divine Dynasty, in its high-profile pursuit of immortality, has occupied too much of the world's fortune and accumulated too much cause and effect along the way.

However, he saw no hope of becoming an immortal, and eventually suffered the backlash of cause and effect, and his entire dynasty was destroyed.

Even this ancestral dragon vein that could rival the ancient dragon of the Qinling Mountains was implicated by the Yuhua Divine Dynasty and was broken by a palm strike from the Henren Emperor, and all the dragon energy dissipated.

The spirit of the dragon vein can only evolve into a few new ancestral dragon veins in front of other places.

Since then, this ancestral vein, which is no weaker than the Qinling Mountains' ancient dragon vein, has changed from the former supreme pure land into a dead land. The area within millions of miles has become the most ominous area, with almost no life.

Even though they were in the heart of Zhongzhou, and even though more than 200,000 years had passed, this mountain range was still barren, dark, and shrouded in black fog all year round, so that the sun could not reach the ground.

On the land shrouded in black fog, the broken mountains seemed to have experienced a horrific war, emitting an atmosphere of deathly silence.

It's like coming to the underworld.

The self-healing ability of heaven and earth is completely ineffective at this moment.

The Ruthless Emperor deserves the title of Ruthless.

He destroyed an immortal dynasty and killed billions of lives without even a moment's hesitation.

Even the heaven and earth were held accountable.

It is more terrifying than killing nine generations of a clan.

"Boss Changshou, is this really the location of the ancestral temple of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty? Could it be that the Holy Son Yaoguang is lying to you?" As they went deeper into the death zone, they saw deathly silence everywhere, and it didn't look like there were any good things that could be preserved.

"You stay in the dragon's nest first. Although this ancestral vein is broken, it seems that some original dragon energy remains in the broken dragon vein. I want to try and see if I can collect some."

Li Zhi was also constantly observing this broken ancestral vein. He faintly saw some suppressed dragon energy deep in the earth. The quality seemed to be extremely high and it might be able to produce some immortal treasures.

There are still three days left before the opening date of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple that the Holy Son Yaoguang told him, and Li Zhi does not plan to go there now.

"Boss Changshou, are you going to hunt for treasure?" The little Qilin said excitedly, because it knew that it would be a very happy thing to follow Li Zhi to hunt for treasure.

Li Zhi nodded and said, "Since I'm here, it's not my style to return empty-handed. Now the secrets of this world seem to have been disturbed. Some things that were previously invisible to the world have become traceable. It would be a pity if I missed this day."

Just as Li Zhi said, with the opening of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple, even this ancestral vein has undergone some changes.

Perhaps after the destruction of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple, this ancestral lineage still has a chance to revive.

"Boss Changshou, let's go quickly." The little Qilin immediately jumped into the mini dragon nest that Li Zhi took out and urged directly.

Afterwards, Li Zhi also entered the mini dragon's nest, following the dragon's energy vein and fleeing towards the place where the dragon energy was rich underground.

The earth was dead silent and the dragon energy was thin. It seemed that there was a strange force that wiped out all life.

To others, this is a deadly place, but to Li Zhi, it is a treasure land that can breed special treasures.

The vitality born from death is absolutely beyond imagination.

Moreover, the ancestral vein of Zhatian has experienced a reversal of yin and yang. After accumulating more than 200,000 years of dead energy, special treasures must have been born under the earth.

It is even a place of enlightenment where one can comprehend the changes of life and death.

Of course, not everyone is suitable for enlightenment in such a place.

Only Li Zhi, who has cultivated both the realms of life and death in the Wheel of Sea and possesses the divine eyes of life and death, can perceive the charm of life and death in this world.

Indeed, a lot of things were born under this land.

However, most of them are evil spirits such as demons and rakshasas. Although those evil spirits and rakshasas are powerful, Li Zhi, as a great king, can walk in those dangerous places as if he is in an empty space.

Li Zhi was lucky. When he entered a dragon's cave filled with yin and death energy, he found a Yin Dragon Orb.

The Yin Dragon Orb is a powerful dragon vein that left a trace of vitality after its accidental death. Eventually, under the influence of the power of heaven and earth, the vitality attracted the remaining dragon energy of the dragon vein. With the nourishment of the death energy, the yin gave birth to yang, and finally turned into a dragon ball.

Within the dragon ball, vitality and death coexist, which is similar to the effect of the Nether Grass.

The nether grass can not only corrode human flesh and blood, but also make the soul immortal.

The effect of the Yin Dragon Orb is the opposite. It can strengthen the body but cause the soul to decay.

If you take the Yin Dragon Pearl rashly, your physical body will be greatly strengthened, but your spiritual consciousness will be dissolved.

Special means are needed to separate the vitality and death energy in the dragon ball before it can be used.

After searching for two days under the earth, apart from a relatively rare Yin Dragon Orb, the rest were just some ordinary refining materials.

As for the top-grade dragon marrow that Li Zhi was expecting, there was not a single drop of it. However, he did find quite a few dragon caves, but unfortunately they were all dried up.

It seems that the remaining essence in the dragon vein has been absorbed by the Yuhua Ancestral Temple.

After coming out from under the earth, Li Zhi and the little Qilin came directly to an ancient temple.

At this time, countless powerful monks from all over the world had gathered in front of the temple.

Because there were enough monks coming, a temporary trading market was established in the valley outside the temple.

Some people set up stalls directly, some set up temporary shops, and even some big tycoons drove their suspended palaces here directly and displayed all kinds of rare materials for sale.

The influence of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple is comparable to that of a large-scale cultural and entertainment event, and it has indirectly driven countless transactions.

“It’s so lively here.”

The little Qilin beast standing next to Li Zhi looked at the dense crowd in the valley with curiosity. At this moment, outside the ancestral temple, there were not only a large number of cultivators from the four immortal dynasties of Zhongzhou and the Yaoguang Holy Land, but also cultivators from various schools of thought and even the ancient myriad races.

The arrival of Li Zhi and the little Qilin did not attract much attention, but people kept coming here these days.

"Let's go for a walk too."

Li Zhi knew that the little Qilin loved to join in the fun, so he took it shopping.

Soon, they saw an arena, which seemed to be an arena for competing for the qualification to enter the ancestral temple.

Li Zhi saw many young geniuses on the ring.

After watching for a long time and listening to many people's discussions, Li Zhi finally understood the purpose of the arena.

This time, only Ye Fan, the Holy Prince, the Taoist Divine Silkworm, the Prince of Heaven, Huangxu Dao, Huo Qilin, Huo Lin'er and others are qualified to directly enter the Zhongzhou Ancestral Temple. Other geniuses of the younger generation, if they want to enter the Yuhua Ancestral Temple, must fight their way out and compete for the qualification to enter.

The little Qilin beast asked, "Boss Changshou, do you need to go on stage and compete with them?"

Li Zhi smiled and said, "What do you think?"

The little Qilin beast said, "You definitely don't need it."

Li Zhi smiled and said, "Let's go and have a look at other places. These big chaebols have a keen sense of business. Let's see what good things they are selling."

After walking around the valley, Li Zhi also saw Ye Fan, Duan De, Hei Huang and his group.

They seemed to be making final preparations before entering the ancestral temple.

However, Li Zhi did not go over to greet them.

The Zhongzhou Ancestral Temple is a journey home specially opened for Ye Fan.

The ruthless emperor has been secretly watching Ye Fan.

They never encounter any serious danger, and it's very boring to travel with them.

After searching nearby for half a day, Li Zhi finally found the temporary residence of the Huolin Cave group.

On a small mountain peak a hundred miles away from the ancestral temple, a group of monks from Huolin Cave were on guard at the periphery.

On the mountain, two young men with blue hair and extraordinary aura were sitting beside a jade coffee table and chatting.

They were one of the targets of Li Zhi's trip.

The ancient Qilin Emperor’s two children, Huo Qilinzi and Huo Liner.

Huo Qilin had a slender and strong physique, masculine and powerful, and even exuded a circle of divine light that covered his body. Even if he was standing in a vast crowd, people could tell at a glance his unique and extraordinary temperament.

The blood of the ancient emperor flowing in his body is extraordinary. There is a faint sound of the divine avenue roaring, and the powerful potential even dissipates uncontrollably, as if there is an ancient emperor lurking in his body.

Li Zhi observed from a distance for a moment and felt the power of the ancient emperor's son.

But he and the Holy Prince seem to be a little different. The blood of the Holy Emperor of Fighting in the Holy Prince's body is held back, but the blood power of Fire Qilin is as bright as the sun, and his aura is overwhelming.

It seems that he is still unable to completely control the power of his own bloodline.

Opposite him sat his sister, Huo Lin'er, a stunning beauty with long flowing aqua-blue hair that looked like the essence of the sea, and skin as white as jade, like a jade sculpture, so beautiful that it seemed unreal.

Li Zhi was very curious about the brother and sister. The Ancient Qilin Emperor did not seem to be a Fire Qilin, so why was their clan land called Huo Lin Cave?
Both the brother and sister seem to have the blood of the Water Qilin, but their surname is Fire, which makes people a little confused.

"I don't like them." After seeing the figures of Huo Qilin and Huo Lin'er, the little Qilin beast immediately whispered to Li Zhi.

"Why don't you like them?" Li Zhi asked, looking at the little Qilin with some curiosity.

"I, I, I just don't like them." The little Qilin beast seemed to instinctively reject the brother and sister Huo Qizi and Huo Lin'er.

Li Zhi couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be because of the conflicting attributes?

At this moment, Huo Lin'er and Huo Qilin on the top of the mountain seemed to sense the gazes of Li Zhi and the little Qilin beast on them, and immediately turned their heads to look in the direction of Li Zhi.

"They've spotted us, let's go over and say hello." Although they were dozens of miles away, for cultivators of their level, it was as if they were right in front of them.

"That man is very strong." Huo Qizi stood up, looked at Li Zhi's figure in the distance, and said to Huo Lin'er beside him.

"Brother, the Qilin beast beside him seems to have an unusual bloodline. I can smell a scent of the Holy Spirit." He said, staring at the little Qilin beast beside Li Zhi.

"Do you know him?" Huo Qizi asked Huo Lin'er. Huo Qizi has been practicing wholeheartedly since he was born. Except for wandering outside the Taichu restricted area, he seldom goes out. It is often Huo Lin'er who represents Huo Lin Cave to attend various occasions.

"The figure seems vaguely familiar, but I can't remember where I have seen him for a moment. However, this person is quite skilled in Taoism, and I can't even see through the layer of fairy mist that covers his appearance." Huo Lin'er said in some surprise.

At this moment, an ancestor king of Huolin Cave suddenly appeared beside them and said to the brothers and sisters: "Your Highness, Princess, this person is extremely dangerous, so be careful."

There was a mix of good and bad people in front of the Yuhua Ancestral Temple, and even he, the ancestor king of Huolin Cave, felt a sense of pressure.

"The other party is walking towards us and doesn't seem to have any ill intentions." Huo Lin'er said.

"I want to fight him." A fighting spirit arose in Huo Qizi's heart.

Huolin Cave Patriarch King said: "Your Highness, that is a great king. And it gives me a sense of fatal threat."

"The human race really has a hidden genius. Could it be the emperor's son?" Huo Lin'er pondered.

The ancestor king of Huolin Cave said, "Princess, let me test him first."

After saying that, the ancestor king of Huolin Cave appeared directly in front of Li Zhi and said, "Daoyou, please stay."

Li Zhi looked at the Huolin Cave Patriarch King who suddenly appeared in front of him and said, "Hello, fellow Taoist."

"Master, what's the matter with you coming to my Huolin Cave?" asked the ancestor king of Huolin Cave.

"Of course, we should go and say hello to fellow Daoists Huo Qizi and Huo Lin'er?" Li Zhi said, "Don't they want to see outsiders?"

"Why don't you show your true face to others, fellow Daoist?" The Fire Scale Cave Patriarch King said with a strange look in his eyes.

"I almost forgot. It's my fault." Li Zhi then remembered that in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he had been using his magical powers to conceal his true appearance.

"It's you? How is this possible?" After Li Zhi dissipated his magical powers, the ancestor king of Huolin Cave looked at him in shock.

"What do you mean, fellow Taoist? What's impossible? I'm Li Zhi, could there be someone impersonating me?" Li Zhi was a little puzzled.

"That's not what I meant. I meant, how could you become a great king in such a short time?" The ancestor king of Huolin Cave was almost incoherent.

"You are talking about my cultivation. I practiced and practiced, and it became like this." Li Zhi said with a smile.

The ancestor king of Huolin Cave seemed to be a little autistic.
