Chapter 117 Kunlun
"Buzz!"
However, before Ji Chen walked far, he suddenly sensed an astonishing wave approaching from behind.
Ji Chen was startled at once, and turned his head to look, only to see that the woman had jumped out of the water at some point.
Her whole body was enveloped in a vast expanse of rosy light, which concealed her icy body very well, with only the part above her shoulders and below her knees exposed.
The rosy glow flashed, containing an astonishing aura that spread towards Ji Chen like thousands of threads.
"Destroy!"
Ji Chen did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately activated his own spiritual power. The nine spiritual veins in his body vibrated wildly and energy flowed out continuously.
The two high-level Xuan-level martial arts, the Falling Star Finger Technique and the Luo Feng Sword Technique, were simultaneously displayed by Ji Chen at this moment. With a terrifying aura, he madly shocked the rosy light pressing forward, trying to force it back.
"Boom!"
However, after the loud noise, Ji Chen's two martial arts were completely vulnerable. In just a moment, they collapsed and were destroyed under the terrifying glow.
"It's over!"
Seeing this scene, Ji Chen's face suddenly showed despair.
This was the first time he felt truly powerless from the bottom of his heart. He could not compete with the woman in front of him at all.
The opponent's strength has far exceeded his own understanding.
"Buzz!"
The space was shaking, and the rays of light seemed to have turned into tiny red ropes, which eventually wrapped around Ji Chen's body, as if to strangle him to death.
"Crack!"
However, when the red rope was tightened, it unexpectedly broke and posed no threat to Ji Chen.
"what?"
Such a scene also made the woman not far away exclaim in surprise, and an unexpected look appeared on her face.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" She pondered for a moment, her beautiful eyes staring at Ji Chen, but her voice sounded very delicate, like a green bird.
"I am Ji Chen, a disciple of Yuhua Sect. I have no intention of offending you. Please forgive me, Fairy." Ji Chen frowned, and while he was dealing with the other party, he was frantically looking for a way to escape.
"Ascension Sect..."
Hearing what Ji Chen said, the woman frowned slightly, then her face was startled, "Oh? You are Ji Chen from Yuhua Sect?"
"Fairy, have you heard of me?" Ji Chen narrowed his eyes, but then he thought, during this period of time, the fact that he possessed nine spiritual veins had already spread in Xuanyu, so it was not surprising that the other party had heard of it.
But what is the origin of this young woman?
Judging from the other person's appearance, he is no more than twenty-three or twenty-four years old.
But his cultivation level has far exceeded Ji Chen's understanding, and it is probably not just as simple as the Guixu Realm.
"You are famous in Xuanyu for your nine spiritual veins. I have naturally heard of you. And when I passed through Qianjiang City two days ago, I also heard people talking about you. Are you the divine body of the Eastern Wilderness?" A gleam of light flashed in the woman's beautiful eyes.
It was no wonder that the thousands of rays of light could not do anything to Ji Chen just now. It was probably because of the opponent's divine body strength that resisted the attack of the rays of light, so that Ji Chen could still stand here safely.
"This is a big mountain, and few people come back. Why are you here?" she asked again.
Ji Chen was speechless for a moment. He naturally came here for the spirit stone mine, but how could he possibly say such a thing openly?
"I have a deep grudge against Lingtian Pavilion. Before, when I moved to Jiangcheng, I was targeted by Song Fei, a disciple of Lingtian Pavilion. He chased me all the way and finally I escaped here." Ji Chen explained.
Hearing this, the woman was skeptical and did not speak. Instead, she looked at Ji Chen with her beautiful eyes. After a long moment, she continued, "Song Fei seems to be a ninth-level master of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. It is rare that you can avoid his pursuit and escape here."
How could she know that Ji Chen did not actually escape, but had already sent Song Fei to hell halfway.
"I haven't asked for the fairy's name yet?" Ji Chen asked, trying to change the subject.
She seemed to hesitate for a moment, but finally spoke, "My name is... Zhou Zhiqian."
"Why is Miss Zhou here alone?" Ji Chen also became curious.
But the glow around Zhou Zhiqian suddenly surged wildly, covering her entire body.
Ji Chen couldn't see clearly what she was doing in the sunset glow.
But soon, when the sunset glow faded, Zhou Zhiqian was seen wearing a white long dress and walking towards him.
"Master Ji has nine spiritual veins and a divine body from the Eastern Wasteland. No matter your potential or talent, your future will be limitless. Unfortunately, Kunlun never accepts male disciples. Otherwise, I would really like to introduce you to Kunlun for cultivation."
She spoke with a smile, and after putting on her clothes, her whole temperament became somewhat ethereal, like a fairy from heaven, enchanting and moving, so beautiful that it seemed as if she did not belong to this world.
"Kunlun?"
Hearing this, Ji Chen was startled at first, and then a look of astonishment suddenly appeared on his face, "Miss Zhou is actually a disciple of Kunlun?"
Kunlun, one of the oldest sects in the Eastern Wilderness, is a holy place in the world.
It is not in the Xuan Realm, but is located in the 'Spirit Realm', one of the nine realms.
The two domains are close neighbors with their lands connected. Therefore, whether in his previous life or this life, Ji Chen had heard people talk about the spiritual domain Kunlun several times.
"I am looking for something in this mountain. Since you are here, you can stay and help me look for it. As long as you listen to me, I may not bother with you about what happened just now." She narrowed her beautiful eyes and spoke with a smile.
"Miss Zhou, just give me your orders. I will obey you."
Ji Chen clasped his fists, appearing calm on the surface, but he was startled in his heart, as if he had thought of something.
Could it be that what Zhou Zhiqian was looking for here was the same as herself, the spiritual stone veins beneath the earth?
Speaking of which, in the previous life, the news of the spirit stone mine spread around this time.
It is very likely that it was someone from Kunlun, or in other words, Zhou Zhiqian in front of him, who discovered the spirit stone vein in the mountains here. Therefore, the news was eventually spread and attracted many top forces to explore.
"You come with me."
Zhou Zhiqian opened her mouth, and after that she led the way, leading Ji Chen deep into the mountains.
During this time, Ji Chen could see that she was holding a roulette wheel in her hand. It was not very big, about the size of a palm.
This roulette wheel seems to have some kind of exploratory function and is a special magic weapon.
She took Ji Chen with her, walking and stopping from time to time, stopping under some ancient trees or beside huge rocks, looking around, and checking something with the roulette in her hand.
"Miss Zhou, what are you looking for?" Ji Chen finally couldn't help but ask.
He wanted to know if the other party really came here for the spirit stone mine?
