Chapter 376: Dharmaraja Blood! Divine Repository Power! (4k2)



At the Five Altar Mountain, deep within the Imperial Palace.

As she saw the figure emerging from the billowing smoke and dust, Qing Qingyu's eyes were filled with a daze.

It wasn't until several breaths later that she confirmed that the terrifying presence that made her heart tremble and her soul shudder was no longer between heaven and earth.

Suddenly, she burst into laughter, and her originally cold face bloomed with breathtaking beauty at this moment.

It was as if the dark clouds in the sky were suddenly pierced by a ray of sunlight, and then the clouds dispersed, revealing a bright and beautiful scene.

But as she laughed, two lines of clear tears flowed uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes.

Immediately after, her face turned solemn, and her palm ruthlessly struck her slightly protruding belly.

Boom! Her slightly bulging belly suddenly caved in, and faintly, the wailing cry of an infant filled with reluctance could be heard.

Qin Zheng's face turned deathly pale, and he immediately knelt down, spitting out mouthfuls of blood and some chunks of flesh.

Looking at the chunks of flesh writhing in the blood, her eyes showed a hint of reluctance, a hint of resentment, and mostly, relief.

At the same time.

Outside the Imperial City, on the edge of the Imperial City.

Qin Zheng slowly looked at the demon core on his right hand.

Buzz!

In the Heart Sea.

The Virtue Scroll trembled slightly.

[Item Discovered: Kui Ox Demon Core, can be refined, requires 15 strands of Innate Merit, refine?]



[Note: Refining will grant the Immortal Art - Thunder Source Scripture]



[Note: Wielding the Heavenly Thunder, possessing unparalleled divine power, cultivatable to the Taiyi Spirit Realm!]



Cultivating the Immortal Art of Taiyi Spirit Realm

Upon seeing the information provided by the Virtue Scroll, a gleam flashed in Qin Zheng's eyes.

Just a moment ago, he was still puzzled about how to cultivate the Taiyi Grade.

But now, he had obtained an Immortal Art that could be cultivated to the Taiyi Spirit Realm!

Moreover, the description of this Immortal Art on the Virtue Scroll was enough to show its potential.

Wielding the Heavenly Thunder and possessing unparalleled divine power! This Immortal Art is perfect for his External Avatar!

Now that his clone knows how to cultivate the Taiyi Grade, he himself also understands how to cultivate it!

With this thought, Qin Zheng silently recited in his heart, "Refine!"

Immediately, his mental gaze turned to the clone section.

[Do you want to use one strand of Innate Merit to pass on the Thunder Source Scripture to the clone?]



Another line of text appeared on the Virtue Scroll.

Qin Zheng's heart moved.

The demon core in his hand instantly merged into his palm, and at the same time, a vast and mighty scripture was instantly passed on to the clone.

After doing all this, Qin Zheng immediately calmed his mind and raised his other hand, looking at the talisman paper in his palm.

[Item Discovered: Summoning Deity Talisman Paper, can be refined, requires one strand of Innate Merit, refine?]



[Note: Refining will grant the Wondrous Artifact - Summoning Deity Talisman Paper]



[Note: With deities in heaven and earth, summoning them will temporarily enhance oneself]



[Note: This talisman paper has been contaminated, forcing refinement may be risky!]



Looking at the information on the Virtue Scroll, Qin Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Although this battle ended quickly, it actually contained many dangers.

First, when he was on his way here, his body exploded due to the sudden surge in power, making him look quite disheveled.

Therefore, this Taiyi Realm Kui Ox Demon underestimated him and did not use this talisman paper.

Then, as soon as he made his move, he exerted all his strength, and that punch, palm strike, and sword move had already exhausted all his abilities.

That was why he was able to quickly slay a Taiyi Realm demon.

If he couldn't kill the Kui Ox Demon, once it reacted, he would most likely have no chance of victory!

These thoughts flashed through Qin Zheng's mind in an instant.

But immediately after, looking at this talisman paper, doubts arose in Qin Zheng's heart again.

With no trace of deities in heaven and earth, which deity could this talisman paper summon?

Just as he was pondering, a roar suddenly echoed from the ruins of the city in front of him.

Demons emerged from the debris, rushing towards him like a tidal wave.

Qin Zheng's expression remained calm as he put the talisman paper away and raised his right hand, flicking his fingers.

Boom! A sword aura instantly split into countless strands, sweeping horizontally across the entire demon city.

Demons exploded into a sea of blood, and the demon city at this moment resembled a display of blood-red fireworks.

The residual force from that punch, palm strike, and sword move was actually enough to flip over the entire demon city and kill these demons.

However, considering that there were also many humans in the demon city, Qin Zheng dissipated most of the residual force.

After effortlessly annihilating the Demon City with a single finger, Qin Zheng's gaze shifted to the Imperial City at the heart of the city.

With a swift stride, his figure instantly stepped into the void.

In the next moment, he reappeared within the Imperial Palace, standing before a woman adorned in a phoenix crown and crimson robe.

"Are you the current master of Midnight Palace?" Qin Zheng inquired.

Qin Qingyu's face paled, and with great effort, she stood up and bowed to Qin Zheng, speaking solemnly, "I am Qing Qingyu, the 230th master of Midnight Palace. Thank you, senior, for saving this land."

As she finished speaking, her body staggered slightly, as if unable to control herself, and she fell to the ground once more.

Her face grew even paler, and sweat poured down like rain.

Qin Zheng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and with his keen perception, he could clearly see the woman's current state.

The demon embryo in her womb had been forcefully shattered, but a remnant of demonic power lingered, constantly corroding her vitality.

It was as if an unborn demon embryo was seeking revenge for its death within her womb.

Astonishingly, the woman made no attempt to resist, allowing the demonic power to erode her organs and vitality.

This woman was seeking death!

Qin Zheng snapped his fingers, and a strand of black flame shot out, igniting fiercely within the woman's body.

In an instant, the remnant demonic power was completely incinerated, and the woman's injuries were thoroughly healed.

Qin Qingyu, taken aback, raised her head to look at Qin Zheng.

Such a powerful being could not help but notice her actions and thoughts.

Qin Zheng pondered for a moment before speaking, "I know you've made great sacrifices to protect the human race, but now is not the time for you to seek death."

"I won't stay here long, so the human race in this realm still needs your governance."

As he spoke, Qin Zheng reached out and threw out a seed bag, continuing, "Inside are thirty-two Taiyi Grade demons that have been nurturing the human race."

"With the demons gone from this realm, it's up to you to restore their consciousness. Once I've settled matters, I'll come to take you away."

This woman's strength was merely at the Supreme Celestial Immortal level, not enough to freely roam the void.

Hence, Qin Zheng had no intention of letting her travel to the Spirit Realm.

Hearing his words, Qing Qingyu's eyes dimmed slightly, but they soon brightened again as she stood up and nodded in agreement.

Since her mission was not yet complete, she would wait a little longer, as there wasn't much difference between sooner or later.

Observing the woman, Qin Zheng sighed softly in his heart.

He could sense that her desire for death was unwavering.

Part of it stemmed from the humiliation endured at the hands of the demons, seeking liberation.

Another part felt helpless and guilty about the demon embryo's death, wanting to atone through death.

Despite it being a demon embryo, it still carried her bloodline and was her child. Maternal instincts were indeed complex and magnificent.

Qin Zheng's mind filled with these thoughts, and he took a step forward, about to leave the palace.

Just then, Qing Qingyu seemed to remember something and hurriedly spoke, "Senior, deep within this palace is a temple guarded by a great demon. No living being, except him, is allowed to enter."

"If you have the intention, you can go take a look."

Qin Zheng paused for a moment, then nodded in response, "Alright."

The next instant, his figure vanished abruptly.

Qing Qingyu's expression darkened.

Deep within the Imperial Palace.

In front of the tightly shut temple.

Qin Zheng took a step forward.

Without hesitation, he snapped his fingers, compressing the air into a thin line that instantly shattered the temple doors.

Qin Zheng stepped into the temple.

Inside, he saw a crimson blood pool in the center, emanating a pleasant fragrance.

Beyond the blood pool stood a majestic statue with a solemn expression and a towering figure.

The statue resembled a human, but being worshipped by demons, it was unlikely to be any ordinary deity with a blood pool before it.

Qin Zheng moved forward, about to glide over the blood pool to reach the statue. He reached out to touch it, intending to examine the merit scroll.

But at that moment, the statue suddenly emanated a faint light, and the blood pool began to churn violently.

Qin Zheng sensed the blood pool's desire to consume him, along with a malevolent intent descending upon him.

This blood pool yearned to devour him.

Qin Zheng snorted coldly, then snapped his fingers, releasing a strand of Immortal Slaying Sword Aura into the blood pool.

Roar!!

Under the terrifying sword aura that could annihilate all things, a piercing howl emerged from the blood pool.

As the blood in the pool visibly decreased at a rapid pace, it eventually condensed into a single drop of scarlet blood.

In an instant, the droplet shot out, leaving a red trail in the void before merging with the divine statue.

A thunderous rumble echoed.

The next moment, a powerful aura began to emanate from the statue.

It was as if the statue had come back to life.

Qin Zheng's expression slightly intensified.

This was the first time he had witnessed a 'living' divine statue!

At that very moment, he took a step forward, and his figure instantly appeared before the statue, delivering a fist imprint imbued with the essence of the Primordial Nine Seals.

The terrifying force that caused the heavens and the void to tremble and wail struck the statue with a mighty crash!

Boom!

At the critical juncture, the divine statue raised its hand, and with a similar fist, it struck towards Qin Zheng.

But at the moment their fists collided, both figures exploded into countless fragments.

Qin Zheng's figure also staggered backward.

The temple instantly collapsed under the intense tremors.

However, at this moment, Qin Zheng's expression remained unwavering. Through his perception, he noticed that the aura of the statue had slightly weakened, but the impact was not significant!

A single drop of blood possessed such formidable power!

"Heaven Splitting Seal, are you a descendant of the Yuxu Lineage?"

In the next instant, the ruins parted, and the divine statue reappeared.

Without hesitation, Qin Zheng took another step forward, reaching the statue and delivering another fist strike.

This time, the statue was prepared and did not counter with a fist. Instead, it retreated, attempting to dodge Qin Zheng's punch.

But just as it began to move.

Buzz!

A chilling sword aura appeared behind the statue, halting its backward motion.

Qin Zheng's fist imprint swiftly followed.

Boom!

Another earth-shattering boom reverberated, and the statue shattered.

However, a crimson glow flashed, and the statue reassembled, restoring its original form.

Just as it was about to solidify, Qin Zheng's fist imprint descended once more.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Qin Zheng's current power was so immense that even he couldn't gauge its limits.

Under the relentless barrage of fist imprints, the light emanating from the statue gradually dimmed.

Finally, after the last punch, the statue did not reassemble. Instead, a drop of blood detached itself from the statue and hovered in midair.

"Enough!"

"This is just a drop of blood from my original self. What does it matter if you win?"

Qin Zheng didn't respond. With a thought, a torrent of slaying immortal sword aura burst forth from the void, enveloping the drop of blood.

A thunderous rumble reverberated.

Under the onslaught of this terrifying sword aura, the spirit within the drop of blood was quickly extinguished.

After a few breaths.

The sword aura dissipated, leaving a drop of dark blood suspended in midair.

Qin Zheng reached out and grabbed it.

Buzz!

In his Heart Sea, the Virtue Scroll trembled slightly, and a line of text appeared.

【Item Acquired: Dharmaraja Blood (Incomplete), Can be Refined, Requires Innate Merit of a Thousand, Refine?】

【Note: Refinement grants a Wondrous Artifact, a Trace of Extremely Weak Divine Repository Power】

【Note: Assists in Opening Your Own Divine Repository!】

Upon seeing the information on the Virtue Scroll, Qin Zheng's mind immediately echoed with the thought, 'Just as I suspected.'

A single drop of blood was so powerful, it could only belong to an existence above Taiyi!

Dharmaraja!

Within this Demon Ruins, a living Dharmaraja was indeed sealed!

Qin Zheng's emotions stirred slightly.

The realm he currently inhabited was merely located on the outskirts of the Demon Ruins, the smallest among the numerous Void Spirit Realms!

Even here, there was a drop of Dharmaraja blood, so what about the other realms? Could they also possess Dharmaraja blood?

Moreover, the larger the Void Spirit Realm, the more Dharmaraja blood it might contain!

These Void Spirit Realms appeared independent, but in reality, they were all under the control of that Dharmaraja of the Demon Race!

With this realization, Qin Zheng took out the talisman paper, his eyes filled with gravity.

Summoning Deity Talisman

Would the summoned deity be that Dharmaraja of the Demon Race?

Qin Zheng's mind was filled with surging thoughts.

After a few breaths, he finally turned his attention back to the information on the Virtue Scroll.

Dharmaraja Blood, Divine Repository Power

Indeed, the path to Dharmaraja seemed closely tied to the Divine Repository!

A single drop of Dharmaraja blood could be refined to obtain a trace of weak Divine Repository power.

If he could collect enough Dharmaraja blood, he might gather enough Divine Repository power to help him open his Divine Repository!

With this realization, Qin Zheng took a step forward, and his figure soared into the sky, leaving this Void Spirit Realm.

Since this was the case, he needed to expedite the clearance of these Void Spirit Realms.

Slay the demonic creatures, acquire merit, obtain Dharmaraja blood, and refine the Divine Repository power!

This was the path to the Dharmaraja Realm, a heavenly road laid out before him!
