If she was allowed to absorb all the Death Qi, what kind of horrifying state would she reach?

However, to the sapling of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree, this was a great thing. Without the Death Qi blocking it, it could grow faster.

Though he was happy, Zhang Ruochen didn’t show it on his face. He still looked calm. “I can agree to your second condition. So shouldn’t you kneel down to your master now?”

“Don’t forget my first condition. Before your cultivation surpasses me, we must be equals. Don’t you dare think about making me a slave.”

Ghost King Bloodmoon snickered inwardly. If she could refine the Death Qi in the tree’s roots, her cultivation would shoot up. Zhang Ruochen’s speed couldn’t catch up with her.

Once her cultivation became strong enough, she could break free from this world. At that time, she could take her time with this human.

As expected, wild souls are hard to tame, Zhang Ruochen thought. I must use some methods to train her. Otherwise, she won’t be an obedient follower.

“It’s okay if you don’t want to kneel. A Ghost King should have their dignity, after all. I understand.”

Zhang Ruochen rubbed his chin and took a glass from his spatial ring. Handing it over, he said, “Get me a glass of spring water. I have some more questions for you.”

Seeing that Ghost King Bloodmoon continued standing there with no sign of moving, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes gradually turned serious. “If you aren’t even willing to do this, I have to doubt if you’re really submitting to me.”

Ghost King Bloodmoon’s clenched her fingers into a fist and her arm trembled. She grabbed the glass, huffing coldly. Then her body transformed into black Ghost Qi and scattered. She flew to the cave in the distance.

“It seems nice to be able to order a beautiful Ghost King for everyday things.” Zhang Ruochen stared at the flying Ghost Qi and nodded lightly.

He had once been the royal prince of the Sacred Central Empire and had learned how an emperor ruled, but sadly, he hadn’t looked too deeply into it. If he could successfully take in Ghost King Bloodmoon, his heart would definitely change a lot. He would gradually evolve a strong upper figure’s mindset.

After a while, Ghost King Bloodmoon carried a glass of spring water and reappeared above the tree root. With an icy expression, she offered the glass to Zhang Ruochen. “Your spring water.”

Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged on the ground. Giving her a glance, he accepted the glass, but didn’t drink it. Holding it, he said, “Sit first.”

Ghost King Bloodmoon accepted easily. She sat cross-legged on the ground. Her black hair fell down the sides of her face to her snowy-white thighs. Her large round eyes stared at Zhang Ruochen.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen didn’t drink the water, she felt a bit disappointed. After all, she’d washed her feet in the water before filling the glass to show her unhappiness.

Zhang Ruochen placed the glass on the ground. He looked very calm. “The female corpse in the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin should be your physical body, right?”

“Perhaps!” Ghost King Bloodmoon said.

Naturally, Zhang Ruochen wasn’t satisfied with this answer. “What do you mean ‘perhaps?'”

“She died before I was born,” Ghost King Bloodmoon said. “How can I be sure that she’s my physical body? Plus, before I was born, I’d lived many muddled years like the other dead souls. I didn’t have a complete intelligence until I reached the Wuchang Realm.”

Zhang Ruochen could see that she was speaking the truth. “So you can’t remember anything from when you were alive?” he asked.

“I indeed received some memory fragments when I reached the Ghost King Realm, but they weren’t complete at all. Most were cultivation and martial techniques. There was nothing else. If my cultivation increases, I might be able to remember more.”

Since Ghost King Bloodmoon’s memories of her past life were very sparse, Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue asking.

He pulled out a ghost marble and squeezed it between two fingers. “If you’re willing to go to the Ghost God Valley with me, I will give you one ghost marble to help you recover your cultivation.”

Ghost King Bloodmoon stared at the ghost marble. Her eyes squinted and she licked her lips. Grabbing the marble, she said, “Since I chose to submit to you, I won’t have any objections.”

A while later, Ghost King Bloodmoon refined the ghost marble. She recovered her cultivation, reaching the Ghost King Realm.

An incredible surge of icy Qi immediately radiated from her. It formed thick ice and spread into the distance with cracking sounds. Two balls of blue fire were ignited in her eyes once again.

In the sky, charcoal clouds rolled, shrouding the world in darkness. In the distance, a shred of Ghost Qi was sucked into the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin. A crescent print immediately emerged between the eyebrows of the female corpse. Moonlight wrapped around her entire body. Specks of white light appeared.

However, Zhang Ruochen, Ghost King Bloodmoon, and the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit had already left the scroll world. They didn’t notice the female corpse’s changes.

Walking out of the scroll world, Ghost King Bloodmoon’s eyes grew sharp. Her hands clenched into claws. Right now, her power was enough to easily take care of Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen obviously was testing her by giving her the ghost marble. In reality, he was also extremely nervous. He’d been holding the Buddhist relic, sarira. If Ghost King Bloodmoon attacked, he would immediately undo the third level seal of the sarira.

At this time, the light of the blood moon hanging above Blood River dimmed. Finally, it disappeared completely.

Seeing this, Ghost King Bloodmoon was shocked. She forgot about killing Zhang Ruochen for now. Looking at the black sky, she said, “That’s strange. The blood moon has been in the sky for so many years. How can it just disappear?”

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen sensed something. He immediately cast his spiritual power into the Universe Spiritual Map. He saw that there was a bright moon in the sky of the scroll world. It hung in the sky above the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin and Divine Sky-connecting Tree.

This was a pure white moon, not a blood moon.

“This is quite unusual.”

Zhang Ruochen was even more certain that Ghost King Bloodmoon had been some important figure of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect before death.

The changes of the blood moon calmed Ghost King Bloodmoon down. Thinking of the Sun-moon Crystal Coffin and the Death Qi within the tree, she suppressed the urge to attack Zhang Ruochen.

Collecting her aura, she said, “Blood River is very far from Ghost God Valley. Let me lead the way!”

“Please!” Zhang Ruochen said, smiling.

Ghost King Bloodmoon turned into a puff of Ghost Qi and flew out.

The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit widened its black eyes and looked around. “Lord Chen, why did I feel that you were nervous? Is that female Ghost King that scary? But I think that she’s quite pretty.”

This silly rabbit didn’t even know that it had been a step away from death earlier. But after she’d passed this challenge, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have to worry anymore that Ghost King Bloodmoon would suddenly try to kill him. He put the sarira away and jumped onto the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit’s back.

“Follow her.”

The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit was 13 meters tall and covered in long red hair. It radiated strong Demonic Qi. It looked fat, but when it ran, it was shockingly fast. It surpassed a fifth level Half-Saint’s full speed.

This was the talent of the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit race. Even if they only had a first level Half-Saint’s cultivation, their speed could never be reached by people in the same level.

With Ghost King Bloodmoon leading the way, they didn’t run into any danger. Three days later, they reached the outside of the Ghost God Valley.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t rush into the valley immediately. Instead, he stayed outside and investigated for a full day. He soon discovered many Monks from Kunlun’s Field. Amongst them, most were Half-Saints from various top forces. They’d clearly all come for the legendary Pill of Resurrection.

Of course, there were probably also some ancient Saints here, but Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation was too low to sense their auras.

Whoosh!

A majestic figure clad in gold armor walked out of the darkness. He carried a halberd and his face was covered in facial hair. His eyes were sharp. Radiating wild power, he strode towards Ghost God Valley.

It was the new star of the Ministry of War, Bu Qianfan.

Other than him, there were also a dozen Half-Saint generals. They all wore armor and rode powerful battle beasts. They entered Ghost God Valley powerfully.

Even the Ministry of War is here. Interesting. Zhang Ruochen smiled.

Bu Qianfan had a fearless personality. He even dared to charge into Void World and receive the Immortal Saint Body. This naturally made him even more fearless. He could even stir up a storm amongst the dead souls of the netherworld.

The other genius of the Ministry of War was Chi Wansui. He was one of the nine Heirs. If Bu Qianfan wanted to catch up to Chi Wansui, he had to take this risk. He could only find bigger opportunities in the world of death.

Suddenly, a few more figures appeared before Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.

Seeing them, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed. A burst of hatred surged in his heart. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Feng Han.”

Clad in white clothing, Feng Han looked handsome as he walked in the front, appearing at the edge of Ghost God Valley.

There were a dozen elders behind him. Extremely powerful aura radiated from each of them. It was clear that they were all important figures from the Immortal Vampires.

An elder with youthful features walked over and bowed to Feng Han. “Sixth Prince, Ghost God Valley will definitely be dangerous. You can wait outside as I lead the Half-Saints to take the Pill of Resurrection out.”
