Chapter 287 Dragon Vein World
The first ancestral vein in Zhongzhou is sacred and brilliant, like an immortal vein.

Walking in it, Li Zhi felt an unparalleled dragon power. The rolling dragon energy seemed endless, and even drops of dragon marrow flowed freely in the ancestral veins.

Dragon marrow flows along the mysterious blood vessels like the blood of a real dragon.

Li Zhi followed the breath of the two Taoist children and entered the deepest part of the ancestral vein, as if he had arrived in the ninth heaven.

No one would have expected that within the first ancestral vein of Zhongzhou, there were actually nine natural small worlds.

Different from the thirty-six-story temple world evolved from the ancestral temple in the outside world, these nine interconnected mysterious small worlds seem to be embedded in the ancestral veins.

As he walked, Li Zhi suddenly realized that this was not the ancestral vein of the earth, but a human spine.

Considering the chaotic body that was integrated into the ancient star of Beidou by Wuliang Tianzun, perhaps the so-called first ancestral vein in Zhongzhou is actually the dragon transformed from the spine of the chaotic body.

Precisely because of this, this first ancestral vein in Zhongzhou can passively attract the arrival of all the ways of heaven and earth, and transform the insights of saints and sages into tangible symbols of the great way.

The Holy Spirit is a being born from heaven and earth.

If one wants to emulate the process of the Holy Spirit’s conception, continuing to be nourished by the myriad ways of heaven and earth is an inevitable condition.

This kind of terrain, which is naturally favored by all laws, is rare throughout the ages, but if it is replaced by a chaotic body, it is completely different.

With a little modification, it can create a supreme treasure land that can nurture the Holy Spirit.

Sensing the aura of the two mad Taoist children in the small world ahead, Li Zhi made a decision in an instant.

We must not let them destroy the nine small worlds within the ancestral vein.

Perhaps the Yuhua Divine Dynasty's astonishing treasures are buried in these small worlds.

It is even possible for the essence of God to be born in this small world.

The Hundred Herbs Map instantly appeared above Li Zhi’s head.

Then Li Zhi completely resurrected the Hundred Herbs Map. This quasi-imperial weapon, which was originally alive, instantly emitted countless divine chains of laws and was directly inserted into the ancestral vein.

"Crash!"

"Boom!"

Sounds like rushing rivers and rolling waves rang out from the Hundred Herbs Map, and the essence in the ancestral veins was being plundered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The aura of the Hundred Herbs Picture is becoming stronger and stronger.

It seems to be recreating its heyday.

"How dare you steal the ancestral essence."

The two Taoist children who were originally searching for clues about Emperor Yuhua in a small world instantly woke up from their possessed state.

They remembered the task of guarding the ancestral temple that Emperor Yuhua gave them before he left.

At the same time, they also figured out some things.

Although Emperor Yuhua was not in the stone womb at this time, it was indeed Emperor Yuhua who personally awakened them six thousand years ago and gave them memories of their past lives.

Today, although Emperor Yuhua has disappeared without a trace, the mission assigned to them must not fail.

Two Taoist boys immediately rushed out of the small world. The boy was holding a feather fan that exuded a mysterious aura. The feathers on the fan were black and white.

The white feathers exude an aura that can make people ascend to heaven, and the black feathers exude an aura that can make people return to the underworld. It is an ancestral weapon of the holy level that has been handed down from generation to generation.

The girl then offered up a Yin-Yang treasure bottle, with life and death flowing at the mouth of the bottle. It seemed that as long as the enemy was put into the bottle, even a saint would be turned into thick water in a moment.

As for ordinary kings, they simply cannot withstand the impact of the light emitted by Aquarius and will be directly turned into ashes.

After seeing the performance of the two Taoist boys, Li Zhi instantly revived the Hundred Herbs Map, as if a quasi-emperor had suddenly descended into the first ancestral vein of Zhongzhou.

At the same time, inside the ancestral temple, in front of the stone gate of the last small world, the Great Sage Hun Tuo and Gai Jiuyou appeared there.

"Could it be that Emperor Yuhua is really still alive? I indeed sensed a breath belonging to the ancient emperor here." The Great Sage Hun Tuo held the stone statue of Emperor Yuhua in his hand, his eyes full of doubts.

"In this world today, if no saint appears, why are you here?" Gai Jiuyou seemed to be uninterested in whether Emperor Yuhua was alive or not. Instead, he was quite concerned about the appearance of Great Sage Huntuo in the ancestral temple.

Great Sage Hun Tuo didn't seem surprised that Gai Jiuyou followed him, and said directly: "I only came here for the thing in the First Ancestor Vein. I'm afraid he will massacre the world."

"There is nothing in the ancestral bloodline that can massacre the world. Fellow Daoist, please go back and leave this place to the young people." Gai Jiuyou said.

As a person who once almost stood at the pinnacle of the great road, the mystery of the life and death of the ancient emperor is a mystery to ordinary cultivators, but not in the eyes of Gai Jiuyou.

Emperor Yuhua seemed to have undergone a strange transformation. As to whether it was successful or not, Gai Jiuyou didn't know, but he knew that Emperor Yuhua was definitely not undergoing a normal transformation.

Within the stone fetus, the Dao of Emperor Yuhua did not seem to have completely dissipated.

For a cultivator of his level, he naturally knew what it meant for the Great Dao to remain.

But before they could finish their conversation, they suddenly sensed an extremely special quasi-emperor aura coming from the underground ancestral vein.

Gai Jiuyou, who was originally shrouded in a layer of hazy fairy mist, suddenly became solid, and then two rays of divine light shot out from his eyes as he looked into the depths of the earth.

But in an instant, he withdrew his gaze and his expression returned to calm again.

However, there was a look of shock in the eyes of the Great Sage Hun Tuo, and his expression changed when he looked at Gai Jiuyou. Just now, he felt a trace of the aura of the ancient emperor from Gai Jiuyou.

Afterwards, he suppressed the shock in his heart and asked, "Did someone underground summon a quasi-royal soldier?"

Gai Jiuyou said: "Someone has indeed resurrected the Quasi-Emperor's Divine Weapon to protect the Dao. Daoist friend, don't worry, it's not a Quasi-Emperor who has descended."

Upon hearing that it was not the quasi-emperor but the quasi-emperor's divine weapon that had been resurrected, Great Sage Hun Tuo breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this time the ancient prince of the ancient royal family carried the ancient royal weapon with him for protection.

The mere Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon was still far inferior to the Ancient Emperor Weapon. However, why did the Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon's aura sound like that of a true Quasi-Emperor?
In the underground ancestral vein, the two Taoist children who originally attacked Li Zhi have now lost their lives.

Even the Great Sage would be wary of the fully resurrected Quasi-Emperor Divine Weapon, not to mention that they only have the ability of a saint.

There seems to be only a fine line between the Quasi-Emperor and the Great Sage, but in fact the gap between them is like the gap between a mighty man and a saint.

No matter how amazing the Great Sage is, as long as he has not become a Quasi-Emperor, he will never be able to defeat the Quasi-Emperor by relying on his own strength.

This is an all-round gap, involving body, cultivation, laws, etc. Even a great sage who can enter the forbidden realm of the gods cannot eliminate this gap.

After all, any strong man who can become a quasi-emperor does not have mediocre qualifications.

The later the cultivation progresses, the smaller the talent gap between practitioners at the same level becomes.

Especially after reaching the level of quasi-emperor, the gap between him and the quasi-emperor of ancient prince level has been infinitely narrowed.

There is no such huge gap between an ordinary king at the king level and a king at the ancient prince level.

After the Hundred Herbs Map swallowed up most of the essence of the former No. 1 ancestral vein in Zhongzhou, the essence in the small world was completely replenished.

Weapon gods can be resurrected at any time.

This time, it was naturally Boss Tu who took action to deal with the two Taoist children of Emperor Yuhua.

No matter how extraordinary Li Zhi is, it is impossible for him to deal with two saints in the late stage who are using great saint weapons at the same time at the level of the great king.

And he is a saint who has attained enlightenment through the Yin Spirit.

As they become saints with the bodies of Yin gods, they are much more powerful than normal saints.

Now that he is using the Great Sage’s weapons, he can even face the Saint King without any fear.

But what they are facing is Boss Tu, who has regained his best condition after more than 100,000 years.

Boss Tu simply threw out two sacred mountains and suppressed the two Taoist children of Emperor Yuhua.

They were imprisoned in a cage world under the medicine mountain. After their consciousness was wiped out, they became the source of essence for the growth of the medicine fields.

"Boss Tu, thank you for your hard work."

After the Hundred Herbs Map returned to Li Zhi's body, Li Zhi used his divine consciousness to communicate with the weapon gods.

"You did a great job." Boss Tu rarely responded to Li Zhi's communication.

Then Li Zhi asked again: "Boss Tu, do you have the ability to cut off the dragon vein with nine small worlds and melt it into the map?"

“???????” Boss Tu responded to Li Zhi with a bunch of question marks.

"Is it not possible?" Li Zhi asked.

"This action is against the harmony of nature and will bring about heaven's punishment." Boss Tu finally responded to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi suddenly remembered that the Hundred Herbs Map was not an imperial weapon after all, and could not cut off cause and effect.

He is not a ruthless emperor. Even if he destroyed the first ancestral bloodline in Zhongzhou, he would not fear the reckoning of cause and effect between heaven and earth.

Then Li Zhi gave up the idea of ​​digging out all the first ancestral veins in Zhongzhou.

Moreover, the essence in the ancestral vein has probably been consumed by Emperor Yuhua by more than 90%, so there should not be much real ancestral vein essence left.

Afterwards, Li Zhi followed the ancestral vein and entered the nine interconnected underground small worlds.

Sure enough, from the outside it looked like the dragon energy was surging and the essence was overflowing, but after entering, I found that the essence of the dragon energy was just so-so and not as rich as I had imagined.

However, it is much stronger than the various dragon veins in the outside world.

Li Zhi found a lot of top-quality dragon marrow in the dragon cave in the small world.

But no trace of the essence was found.

Moreover, many buildings have been built in the small world, but most of them are empty inside.

Even the magic circle that keeps the building immortal showed signs of damage.

What surprised Li Zhi was that there was no trace of monks from the Yuhua Divine Dynasty here.

There are neither heavenly soldiers or generals stationed there, nor are there any guardian beasts.

Except for a few places with traces of human activities, these small worlds are filled with a simple and primitive atmosphere.

Apart from the mountains full of plants and trees emitting dragon energy, this place is more like a small native world.

Li Zhi used the "Book of the Earth" to explore this small world.

Soon, there were amazing discoveries under the earth. He found many divine source veins and divine material veins.

They even found a piece of black gold ore with dragon patterns that was half the size of a human head.

Li Zhi unceremoniously dug away those divine sources and mineral deposits.

Finally, they arrived in front of the ancient palaces that were still blocked by formations.

Taking out the Luoyang shovel, Li Zhi dug open the restrictions outside the palace one by one and successfully entered the palace.

　The goal set at the beginning of the month is to update 62 chapters this month, and now I still owe one chapter. I will continue to write. This chapter is short of 1,000 words, and I will make up for it in the next chapter.
