Chapter 8 Rescue the Princess
"Hey! I don't know how long it will take me to reach the ninth level of martial arts. If I want to enter the branch of the Daning Empire in the Holy Land of Black Dragon Mountain, I must at least have a high-grade martial spirit and the strength of the eighth level of martial arts. My current strength is only martial arts.
Fivefold.”
Zhou Xing felt quite helpless. He looked at the Ancient Devouring Art, wanting to know how to penetrate the meridians behind it.
Suddenly, he was stunned.
"Why does the ancient Devouring Art body refining have more than just nine meridians?"
He discovered that in terms of the meridians of the Taikoo Devouring Jue, it was not the traditional nine meridians, that is, the four meridians of the hands and feet, each with two meridians of yin and yang, plus the Tianshu meridians, making a total of nine meridians.
But in the Ancient Swallowing Art, the meridians have become... thirteen meridians!
Among the four meridians of yin and yang in the hands and feet, there are four more meridians. These four meridians are called "hidden meridians"!
Zhou Xing had read many books on cultivation before, but these four meridians had never appeared or heard of!
"The yin and yang meridians are already at their limit. Is this a meridian that transcends the yin and yang meridians?"
Zhou Xing was surprised and helpless at the same time. There were four more meridians, which meant that if he wanted to reach the state of condensing qi, he would need more than double the amount of energy compared to before!
"Kunpeng's body is indeed a bottomless abyss!"
Zhou Xing shook his head helplessly.
"Help!"
Suddenly, a rapid cry reached Zhou Xing's ears. Zhou Xing hid in the tree and looked into the distance.
A girl was running in a hurry, but there was a figure behind her, running faster.
"Your Highness Princess, do you still want to keep running?"
This figure stopped the running girl, and they both stopped next to the big tree under Zhou Xing. Zhou Xing hid in the shade and could clearly see the two people under the tree.
The girl looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, and she was wearing a smart outfit that perfectly highlighted her well-developed body.
She has rare short hair and looks quite capable. If her face hadn't looked quite childish, Zhou Xing wouldn't have thought that she was just a fifteen or sixteen year old girl.
And hearing that person call this girl "princess", Zhou Xing knew that this girl's identity was definitely extraordinary.
He hid in the tree and kept silent. He was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's business, and it seemed that the strength of these two people was definitely not weak.
"Qin Guang, what do you mean? You know that I am a princess, do you still plan to attack me?"
The girl drew her sword and confronted the young man in yellow clothes.
The young man in yellow clothes showed a sneer.
"Shangguan Rong, in other places, I would still call you princess, but here, there is no one around. As your fiancé, there is no need for me to call you princess."
Qin Guang pressed forward step by step towards the girl named Shangguan Rong.
"Qin Guang, don't be proud. Although I was granted marriage to you by my father, I don't like you and I will never marry you!"
Shangguan Rong's face was very ugly. The Qin Guang in front of him was a genius from the Qin family, one of the three major families in the Daning Empire. However, he had a sinister personality and was not Shangguan Rong's type.
Her father proposed marriage to Qin Guang, but she was very unhappy and tried her best to cancel the marriage.
"No? Haha, you said no, but once you become my woman, it will be useless for you to object! Humph, I, Qin Guang, am destined to become the consort's man!"
Qin Guang laughed loudly and grabbed Shangguan Rong with both hands.
At this moment, a small flame appeared in front of Qin Guang.
As soon as he was not careful, the flames fell on his face. He only heard Qin Guang's scream of "Ah", and an astonishing wound was burned on Qin Guang's face!
"No!"
"What kind of flame is this!"
Qin Guang felt the terror of the flames, and at the moment when the flames burned, a large amount of his energy was lost in an instant!
"What's going on?"
Shangguan Rong also felt a little incredible. She didn't know how this flame suddenly appeared, and it was definitely not an ordinary flame. It could actually burn a big hole in Qin Guang's face!
Moreover, this flame has no roots and no basis. It suddenly appears. The timing and method of its appearance are really weird!
"I'm going to put out this fire! Ice!"
Suddenly, a line of icy cold air appeared from Qin Guang's fingertips. This was Qin Guang's Ice Finger, a water-based skill, and the cold air immediately enveloped the flames.
However, as soon as the cold air wrapped around the Flame Mountain, all the cold air was immediately burned, and all the vitality was absorbed mercilessly!
Qin Guang's expression changed drastically. Looking at this small flame, he became a little uneasy.
"Who is it? Is it some big shot who secretly protects Shangguan Rong?"
Qin Guang naturally thought that there must be some important person who was inconvenient to deal with him, so he used this method.
"It seems that it is impossible to get Shangguan Rong today! Humph, but Shangguan Rong is my woman and will always be!"
Qin Guang stamped his feet angrily, turned around and left.
"Thank you, senior, for rescuing Ronger. Ronger is very grateful."
Seeing Qin Guang leaving helplessly, Shangguanrong let out a sigh of relief. She also knew that it was probably a powerful senior who was trying to save her.
But at this time, a figure jumped down above Shangguan Rong's head.
"Fortunately, that guy is gone."
Zhou Xing appeared in front of Shangguan Rong and let out a sigh of relief.
Although Zhou Xing doesn't like taking risks, he still couldn't stand it when he saw Qin Guang humiliating Shangguan Rong just now.
So he released his martial spirit and secretly attacked Qin Guang. Unexpectedly, he succeeded in scaring Qin Guang away.
Not only did it completely disfigure Qin Guang, but it also absorbed a lot of Qin Guang's vitality.
This energy is roughly equivalent to a dozen Yuan-Zeng Dan, although it is a drop in the bucket for Zhou Xing today.
However, rescuing a princess may be of great benefit to yourself.
"Who are you? Have you been hiding here all this time?"
Seeing Zhou Xing appear, Shangguan Rong was very vigilant. She would not trust any man easily.
"Yes, I rescued you. Are you a princess? Are you the princess of the Shangguan family in the Daning Empire?"
Zhou Xing asked.
The Daning Empire is one of the five empires under the jurisdiction of the Black Dragon Mountain Holy Land. The royal family of the Daning Empire is the Shangguan clan.
In addition, the Daning Empire also has the Qin family, a family of cultivation, and the Ning family, a family of cultivation.
According to rumors, the three major families all have powerful men above the psychic realm, and they are in an absolute dominant position in the Daning Empire.
And if the person in front of me is really the Princess of Daning Empire...
