Chapter 144: Spirit Beast Zhi Ze, Chen Changsheng’s Terrifying Defense
Seeing Fu Yao decisively reject his request, Chen Changsheng immediately switched to a friendly smile and said, “Brother Zhenren, please don’t take offense. I was just joking with you.”
“Now let’s get back to serious matters.”
Regarding Chen Changsheng’s erratic behavior, Zhang Zhenren smiled but remained silent.
The struggle for power was a matter of life and d*ath; if killing Chen Changsheng could grant him the Heavenly Mandate, he would undoubtedly act without hesitation.
The existence of the Ancient Forbidden Ground now vaguely threatened him, and he knew that wanting to k*ll him was completely reasonable.
“The third question, what does the Lower Realm you mentioned earlier mean, Brother Zhenren?”
“And also, what does the Giant Hand on the Bronze Ancient Palace represent? Will they descend again?”
Chen Changsheng voiced all the doubts in his mind in one breath.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhenren replied calmly, “These questions, I cannot tell you for now.”
“Once you reach this height, Brother Chen, you will understand on your own.”
“It’s fine; since these matters cannot be discussed, let’s change the question.”
“Why does the Heavenly Mandate target the Forbidden Ground? Is there a connection between the ominousness of the Bronze Ancient Palace and the Forbidden Ground…”
“Brother Chen!”
Before Chen Changsheng could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Zhenren.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng was puzzled. “What, can’t I ask these questions either?”
“A friendship over a cup of tea is only worth three questions.”
“The opportunity, Brother Chen, is already used up; continuing to probe would be a bit greedy.”
“If I don’t ask, then I won’t ask; why are you beating around the bush to scold me?”
“I agreed to the conditions regarding the Ancient Forbidden Ground. I hope you won’t go back on your word when it matters.”
With the conditions fulfilled, Zhang Zhenren stood up, preparing to leave.
Before leaving, he glanced at Chen Changsheng and said, “As compensation for not answering the third question, I can tell you another piece of information.”
“To save the spirit beast Zhi Ze beside you, you’ll need to visit the Underworld Forest; there may be a way to save it.”
As soon as he said this, Chen Changsheng’s eyes lit up.
“Where is this Underworld Forest?”
“In the Eastern Wastes, finding the Underworld Forest requires some special methods.”
Saying this, Zhang Zhenren handed Chen Changsheng a jade slip.
Looking at the jade slip in his hand, Chen Changsheng said with confusion, “Why are you suddenly so kind? You’re not trying to trick me, are you?”
“Rest assured, what I said is no exaggeration. If the Underworld Forest cannot save Zhi Ze, then it cannot be saved anywhere in the world.”
“Seeing you so solemn makes me anxious.”
“Why don’t you go to the Underworld Forest for me? I will agree to any request you make.”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s request, Zhang Zhenren smiled and shook his head.
“I won’t go to the Underworld Forest; even if I went, I would definitely d*e there.”
“The Heavenly Mandate for this moment is determined, but for the next moment’s Heavenly Mandate, I must have it.”
“So, against an opponent like you, I naturally have to plot against you.”
“Even if I can’t take you down, I still must find a way to delay you. Don’t you think?”
Chen Changsheng: “……”
How can you say such things so brazenly? You have thicker skin than I do.
“Transparent!”
“Indeed worthy of the Forbidden Ground’s scion; you have a much thicker skin than most.”
“Based on this gift from you, once I have the time later, I’ll have to dig you out from the Ancient Forbidden Ground and give you a beating.”
“Hahaha!”
Hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, Zhang Zhenren burst into loud laughter.
“If you have the guts, then come.”
“Once I bear the Heavenly Mandate, I will establish a force to unify the world.”
“If at that time, you lose to me, I will save you a position guarding the gate in the ‘Heavenly Court.’”
With his grandiose words, Zhang Zhenren turned and walked into the distance.

After Zhang Bairen left, Chen Changsheng looked at Fu Yao and said, “In the next life’s Heavenly Mandate, you will encounter strong enemies again.”
“You won’t try to avoid the limelight again, will you? At this rate of retreating left and right, how long will you keep retreating?”
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s heartfelt words, Fu Yao rolled her eyes at him.
“I have my own choices, no need for your worry.”
“To save my brother, I owe you a favor, a favor that will never expire.”
“Wait, you’re not going to make a trip to the Underworld Forest?”
Chen Changsheng looked at Fu Yao in surprise, his face filled with confusion.
A “brother complex” actually isn’t personally seeking ways to save their brother; that doesn’t make much sense!
Ignoring Chen Changsheng’s astonishment, Fu Yao gazed quietly into the distance.
“Chen Changsheng, I actually envy you, as you are unrestrained and can roam freely in this world.”
“But not everyone in this world can be like you.”
“This is Fang Qiancheng’s ‘Wind and Thunder Wings,’ which were torn off by an enraged spirit bone back then. I kept them for you for a while.”
“With the help of the Wind and Thunder Wings, your chances of survival in the Underworld Forest will increase significantly.”
After saying this, Fu Yao also disappeared into the ground.
Looking at the bloodstained wings on the table, Chen Changsheng muttered, “You guys have so many secrets on you!”
“You might as well have a nickname like ‘Secret People.’”
After a bit of sarcastic commentary, Chen Changsheng put away the Wind and Thunder Wings.
This Wind and Thunder Wings are exceptional; if refined through secret methods, they could completely transform into a magic treasure with extremely fast flight speed.
After being refined into a magic treasure, these Wind and Thunder Wings might not be as flexible as those used by Fang Qiancheng, but in terms of speed, they are still top-notch in the world.
“Tsk tsk!”
“Fortune comes without hindrance; just going out for a stroll brings in treasures; such a life is truly wonderful.”
Saying this, Chen Changsheng looked into the distance.
“Does the main body seem to be fighting in the Kunlun Sacred Ground? I must hurry back to help; otherwise, there will be problems.”
……
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
A large mountain collapsed significantly as Chen Changsheng, covered in dirt, crawled out of the rock pile.
“Seriously, you three against me is a bit unfair, isn’t it?”
Hearing Chen Changsheng still lively and complaining, Jiang Jin couldn’t help but twitch his lips.
Just how strong is this guy’s physical body!
The two elders of the Sacred Ground, plus himself, fought for so long and couldn’t even inflict a scratch on him—no one would believe it if he said it.
Shaking off his tattered outer garments, a faint purple light reflected in everyone’s eyes.
Indeed, Chen Changsheng was wearing armor made from Thunder Beast scales.
After the Thunder Beast clan was obliterated by Chen Changsheng, half of the resources fell into his hands, including the body of the Thunder Beast clan leader.
This armor made from scales is of the highest quality.
Moreover, Chen Changsheng had been diligently engraving defense formations on it for nearly a thousand years.
The defense power of this armor has reached an absurd level.
Aside from external defenses, Chen Changsheng also has defensive techniques, golden silkworm threads, and system attribute points.
In light of all these factors, unless a master from the eighth realm shows up, no one else could break through Chen Changsheng’s defense.
This is also why Chen Changsheng dared to act recklessly in the Central Courtyard, as currently, no one can k*ll him.
“Too much bullying; if the heavens don’t settle this, you all wait for it.”
Chen Changsheng made a harsh remark, then quickly ran in a certain direction.
In the distance, another “Chen Changsheng” was also rushing towards him.
The moment the two Chen Changshengs made contact, they directly merged into one.
“Vroom!”
“True self” returned to its place; at this moment, Chen Changsheng could finally be called the real, complete Chen Changsheng.
Previously, the “true self” had taken away most of Chen Changsheng’s spiritual power, which had prevented him from using many attack methods.
But now, Chen Changsheng no longer had such limitations.
