Chapter 848: The Source of Central Divine Power
Twenty thousand spirit foxes were not annihilated.
Both Xue Hong Qianli and Shen Zheng believed that these creatures were not evil, but were commanded by the "fox king" Tie Mojun to defend their territory.
Facing Shen Zheng who killed the "fox king" and the Qinghuo horse who surrounded all of their own kind, the spirit foxes showed their vulnerable side. They squeezed inward one by one, and the twenty thousand foxes squeezed into a ball, wailing, which made people feel pitiful.
Shen Zheng selected a spirit fox with a strong physique and a strong fighting spirit from the more seriously injured foxes. When he took the fox out of the pile of corpses, the guy with half of his chin blown off and both front legs missing stared at Shen Zheng and shot a beam of light to kill Shen Zheng.
But the result was not suspenseful - the beam of light was directly dispersed by Shen Zheng's punch, and the spirit fox was so frightened that he stared at it for a long time and did not dare to move. [
Shen Zheng sent out kind thoughts to it, asking it if it was willing to submit to him. The spirit fox looked at Shen Zheng in doubt, and then Shen Zheng took out a giant power stone and motioned it to eat it.
The spirit fox, thinking that it was going to die anyway, ate the giant power stone. After a while, after its body regenerated, it realized what treasure Shen Zheng had given it, and couldn't help but cry out excitedly, looking at Shen Zheng with a gentle look.
Shen Zheng smiled and stroked its smooth fur, and the spirit fox bent down, as if to worship him, and made a subtle cry.
Shen Zheng took out the divine stone again and fed it a few pieces. Immediately, the spirit fox felt the changes in its body, jumped up in surprise, and after a long howl, suddenly raised his eyes to the sky and shot out several thick spiritual beams. The beams were so strong that the other foxes screamed.
The spirit fox turned around and cried out to the fox group, and soon got a response from the fox group. Nearly 20,000 foxes, led by the new fox king, lay on the ground and bowed to Shen Zheng.
"I didn't expect it to be solved so easily." Xue Hong Qianli shook his head and sighed. "It's true that it's easy for rich people to do things. For someone like me, I can only solve the problem with violence."
Shen Zheng smiled and said nothing.
"Let's go and take a look at the Iron Demon Lord's lair." Xue Hong Qianli said, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be a 'source of divine power' here."
"Source of divine power?" Shen Zheng's heart moved, "Is it something related to the power of the creator of this plane?"
"Yes." Xue Hong Qianli nodded. "In the central grassland mountainous area where I live, there is such a source of divine power. I guess the lairs of the other four demons are also built on such a source of divine power. If my guess is correct, then this plane is supported by five sources of divine power, which is in line with the theory of the 'five insects' in the source world."
"Qinglong, Zhuque, Baihu, Xuanwu, and the central holy spirit." Shen Zheng said, "Scales, feathers, hair, armor, and nakedness."
"Yes." Xue Hong Qianli nodded. "Let's go."
The two went forward, and the new fox king called out and followed. Xiaoqing and Fenghu were Shen Zheng's "old team", so they followed naturally.
Entered the mountainous area, headed towards a valley, and gradually came to a huge lake in the valley. The fox king called out to the lake a few times, as if to indicate that there was something everyone was looking for in it. Shen Zheng and Xue Hong Qianli looked at each other, jumped into the lake together, and went down to the lake.
Soon, the two saw a palace at the bottom of the clear lake. The palace was made entirely of crystal and was magnificent. Shen Zheng felt that it was similar to the architectural style of the Holy Demon Realm he had seen, and more like the buildings of the Demon Empire. It should be the palace built by the Iron Demon Lord.
Entering the palace, moving forward, under the guidance of Xue Hong Qianli, he came to a temple-like hall. There, Shen Zheng saw a piece of clear crystal growing from the ground, with layers of power ripples rippling on it.
"That's it." Xue Hong Qianli pointed at the thing and said. "Although it is not consistent with the source of divine power in my place, the aura is exactly the same. This is full of water power, I think it should be the source of divine power representing the power of Xuanwu. The larger part should be buried deep underground."
"What is the use of this thing?" Shen Zheng asked.
"It maintains the operation of the entire plane." Xue Hong Qianli said, "This is a major function. On a smaller scale, if we practice near it, we can get a powerful auxiliary effect. If we lose strength, we can use it to quickly repair it. Iron Demon Lord has not been here for a long time, so he should not have summarized these methods. Otherwise, if he fights with us here, we will have to work hard." [
"Under water, will the spiritual light beam of the spiritual light fox still be effective?" Shen Zheng asked.
"Greatly reduced." Xue Hong Qianli said.
"So you." Shen Zheng smiled, "He wants to destroy us with the huge spiritual light fox army. And here, the advantage of the spiritual light fox does not exist."
"You still have a strategic vision." Xue Hong Qianli smiled, "I can't do it. I only know how to fight. Don't ask me for these brainstorming things."
Shen Zheng slowly approached the source of divine power, stretched out his hand to touch it, and felt that the touch was cold, which made people feel like touching a piece of tight ice, but smoother than ice. At this moment, the meteorite sword that he had put into the insect core suddenly vibrated, as if a drunkard saw a good wine.
His mind moved and he quickly took out the Meteorite Sword.
This artifact created based on the Annihilation God Spear also has the ability to absorb power like the Annihilation God Spear, and obviously, it has inherited the Annihilation God Spear's desire for divine power. When the knife appeared, it vibrated rapidly, as if it wanted to get rid of Shen Zheng's hand and pierce into the crystal.
Shen Zheng hesitated for a moment, and finally stabbed it with a knife. The knife pierced straight into the crystal, and then began to absorb frantically, and it stabilized after a while.
"What's wrong?" Xue Hong Qianli asked curiously.
"The Meteoric God Sword absorbed some of the divine power here." Shen Zheng pulled out the knife, held it in his hand to sense it, and then shook his head. "The divine power here is only a part of the real divine power and cannot play a real role. I think if we gather the other four divine powers, we can piece together a complete fragment of the power of the Creator. In this way, the strength of the Meteoric God Sword and me will be further improved."
"Good guy!" Xue Hong Qianli couldn't help but get excited, "If I had known this, I would have let you go to me first to absorb the central divine power!"
"It's not too late now." Shen Zheng smiled, "Let's go."
Leaving the underwater palace, they came to the ground and returned to the fox herd and the horse herd. Shen Zheng gave an order to the new fox king, asking it to lead the fox clan to guard this place, and the fox king agreed respectfully.
To prevent accidents, Shen Zheng also left Xiaoqing here. There are 20,000 spiritual foxes and 10,000 blue fire horses. No matter which force comes, they have the strength to fight. Then, he and Xue Hong Qianli rode on the iron feather eagle together and returned to the central grassland.
The speed of flying and running is absolutely different. The two flew on the eagle and soon arrived in the mountainous area where Xue Hong Qianli lived. After flying for a while, they arrived in front of a very tall cliff.
The cliff was full of huge eagle nests, as many as hundreds. Shen Zheng looked around and saw huge iron-feathered eagles, some of which were sticking their heads out of the nests to look around, some flying nearby to monitor, and their eyes were full of vigilance when they looked at him.
"Don't be afraid." Xue Hong Qianli said with a smile, "Because I have helped them several times, I have already formed a good relationship with them. Even my fiancée is placed here with them, and they help me take care of her to prevent her from being hurt by other creatures. My home is also built under this cliff, right at the source of the central divine power, and it is very safe."
Shen Zheng nodded, still unable to help but look at these big eagles curiously. He roughly counted that there were about 900 iron-feathered eagles here, some big and some small, some strong and some weak, but the average strength was also superior to that of the wind tiger, which showed that it was an extremely strong war beast race.
The iron-feathered eagle carried the two people, circled and fell, and came to the bottom of the cliff valley. Here, Shen Zheng arrived at a stone castle, which was not very big, and could only be regarded as a medium-sized castle. Xue Hong Qianli jumped off the eagle's back and introduced it to Shen Zheng enthusiastically: "This is my home. It is very simple, and it can't be compared with those demon palaces."
"But it makes me feel more intimate." Shen Zheng smiled and jumped down.
"Come with me." Xue Hong Qianli led Shen Zheng forward, opened the extremely heavy stone door, and went into the castle. Soon after, they came to a lobby.
In the center of the lobby, there was a huge stone that pierced the stone ground from the ground like a gun, and layers of power ripples flowed on it. Shen Zheng felt it slightly and felt that it was a little different from the power emitted by the crystal at the Iron Demon Lord. [
"This is the source of the central divine power." Xue Hong Qianli said. He looked there, and there was a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
"And that is my fiancée." He pointed to a crystal next to the gun-like rock and said.
Out of curiosity, Shen Zheng slowly walked forward and looked into the crystal. He immediately saw a beautiful woman in a white dress and purple hair. She closed her eyes and had no expression on her face, but she gave people a sense of nobility and inviolability, as if she was a beautiful princess in a fairy tale who was quietly sleeping in the crystal, waiting for the prince to wake her up.
"She is so beautiful." Shen Zheng couldn't help but admire.
"My fiancée, of course she is beautiful." Xue Hong Qianli was very proud. "I thought I could only guard her like this until I died, but I didn't expect you to come. She is finally saved!"
As he said this, tears flowed out. He wiped them away embarrassedly and grinned at Shen Zheng.
"You should absorb the source of the central divine power first." Xue Hong Qianli said. "We should fight quickly and make a quick decision. The more power we get from pacifying the entire plane, the more confident we will be when we protect the source world in the future."
"Okay." Shen Zheng nodded and walked forward slowly.
He took out the Meteorite God Sword, felt the excited vibration on the sword, and stabbed it deeply into the giant rock. Immediately, several earth-type powers were transmitted into the sword body, gradually merging with the water-type power absorbed before.
It was obviously the power of the naked insect holy spirit.
After a long time, Shen Zheng pulled out the sword and nodded to Xue Hong Qianli: "The next target should be the Holy Hall King, right?"
