The realm of a Quasi-Saint was also part of the Ninth Order Half-Saint.
Only, this part again surpassed the Ninth Order Half-Saint in a sense, infinitely approaching the Saint realm.
Thus, even if an outsider’s spiritual power was very strong, it was difficult for them to see through how many times the other party had passed through the Quasi-Saint Tribulation, and they could only make a rough assessment based on the battle power that the other party had displayed.
Knowing that Princess Baili’s strength was enough to fight with weaker Lower Realm Saints, all along, Zhang Ruochen had thought that she had already passed through one Quasi-Saint Tribulation, or two Quasi-Saint Tribulations.
How could he not have expected that she was only at the Ninth Order Half-Saint realm?
Just being a Ninth Order Half-Saint was already so powerful, and once she had crossed the first Paramount Sacred Tribulation, there was no telling how strong she would be?
Obviously, the stronger a cultivator’s physique was, and the stronger the rules of the Saint Dao they cultivated, the more terrifying the lightning tribulation they would attract when they crossed the Quasi-Saint Tribulation.
Sun Di Di wasn’t a weakling, without having reached the Quasi-Saint realm, he was able to briefly fight with the Beast King, and in the Human Race, he was definitely a first-rate celestial pride, with a physique even stronger than a Saint’s Body.
However, the calamity lightning that Princess Baili had attracted was twice as thick as the one he had attracted.
What did this mean?
“Worthy of being an ancient relic species, even if the latter-day beings were even more outstanding, it would be hard to compare with them.”Zhang Ruochen sighed softly as he looked at a large and a small dark-black calamity cloud in the distance.
“Roar!”
The Great Monk and the Second Monk, one after the other, let out a long roar.
On the bodies of the two monks, radiant Buddhist light emanated, appearing white and black respectively, dividing the space where this mountain was located into half day and half night.
Inside their bodies, a vast Sanskrit sound resounded, attracting a round robber’s cloud.
In the calamity cloud, black lightning and white lightning intertwined like a huge yin and yang fish pattern.
They were actually going to cross their first Paragon Saints’ Tribulation as well.
Moreover, the Quasi-Saint Tribulation they had attracted was a bit odd, the two tribulation clouds were actually connected together, intertwined with each other, inseparable, emitting a destructive aura that was even more powerful than the tribulation cloud attracted by Princess Baili.
Sun earth to lead to the robbery cloud, probably only twenty miles long.
The one led by Princess Bai Li was close to thirty miles long.
The plunder cloud induced by Da Si Kong and Er Si Kong was more than forty miles long, covering a large part of the sky and leaving a huge shadow on the ground.
In terms of fighting alone, at the same realm, Da Sikong and Er Sikong were simply no match for Princess Baili. However, when the two monks joined forces, they were able to explode a very terrifying battle power, and were definitely able to suppress Princess Baili.
Generally speaking, two monks, even if they worked together seamlessly, would only be able to increase their battle power by 50 or 60% at most.
To be able to reach seventy per cent was to overplay their hand.
A combination like that of the Great Sikong and the Second Sikong, who were able to increase their battle power by several times, was simply unheard of and unheard of.
“Could it be that they are twins?”
Murong Yue was a little curious and, thus, guessed so.
“The two of them, where do they look like twins?”Zhang Ruochen smiled and shook his head.
Little Black said, “Perhaps, the two of them aren’t humans at all, but Fae Spirits.”
“Fae beings? Plants?”Murong Yue revealed an astonished look.
“Plants are also still regular living beings, not considered fae.”
Xiao Hei revealed an inscrutable look and spoke eloquently, saying, “The so-called Fae Spirits are extremely broadly encompassed. For example, a holy dan, as long as the grade is high enough and someone awakens it, it can give birth to a spirit, cultivate the holy dao and understand the rules of the holy dao just like humans, and eventually cultivate a human body to become a first-rate powerhouse.”
“In addition to that, flames can be cultivated into a human body, stones can be cultivated into a human body, wind, rain, thunder, lightning, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting can all be cultivated into a human body. Of course it may not be a human body, it may also be the body of a savage beast in general.”
“In short, the classification of Fae Spirits is extremely wide, only the Fae Spirits you can’t think of, there’s no Fae Spirits you can’t see. It’s only that the number of Fae Spirits is scarce, and an average cultivator, in their entire life, may not be able to see a Fae Spirit.”
Murong Yue was puzzled and asked, “Why?”
Zhang Ruochen said, “A Fae species that can be cultivated into a human body, its original body, must be quite a precious treasure. For example, if an elixir is cultivated into a human body, then how precious must its original body be? How many strong people would want to capture it? Swallow it? Refine it?”
Xiao Hei nodded and said, “Even if it is just a piece of stone, if it can be cultivated into a human body, it proves that it is made of a very special material, and it is definitely a divine material for refining weapons. Therefore, every Fae Spirit will endeavour to hide their identity, thus avoiding being hunted. Therefore, the number of Fae Spirits may not be as rare as the Swift Ancient Remnant Species, but it is extremely difficult to see them.”
Immediately after, Xiao Hei added, “There are quite a few Fae Spirits on the Semi-Saint Outer List, and there are two or three of them that are quite powerful, not below Prince Qing Tian. Those two monks are undergoing their first Paramount Sacred Tribulation, so it’s not certain that the power of the tribulation thunder will force their original bodies out.”
Regardless of whether or not the Great Sacred Monk and the Second Sacred Monk were fae beings, it was impossible for Zhang Ruochen to harm them.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen’s heart was still quite curious as to whether the Second Monk was a Fae Being or not. If they were Fae Beings, what type were they?
Zhang Ruochen opened the Heavenly Eye in his brow and looked towards the two monks below the black and white tribulation clouds hundreds of miles away.
The first Paramount Sainthood Tribulation, also known as the “Four Nine Tribulations”, meant that the monks would be tested by thirty-six thunder tribulations.
Only after passing through the Four Nine Tribulations would they be considered to have crossed over into the realm of the First Paramount Saints.
The Great Sikong and the Second Sikong stood underneath the calamity cloud, one sitting and one lying down, presenting two different Buddha poses, enduring the baptism of thunder and lightning on their physical bodies.
Da Sikong’s body was as if it was carved out of white jade, appearing crystal clear, the lightning struck his body without causing any damage.
The Second Sikong’s body, however, was a mass of pitch black, as if it was meteoric iron.
“One white and one black, yet they share the same origin. There is a pure innate Qi emanating from their bodies, completely different from the human’s acquired blood Qi, they must be fae beings without a doubt.”Zhang Ruochen secretly said in his heart.
As for what kind of Fae Beings the Great Monk and the Second Monk were, Zhang Ruochen did not see it.
On the bodies of the two monks, a layer of mist shrouded them, hiding their original bodies so that even the Heaven’s Eye could not see through them.
It should be that there was a supreme powerhouse that had cast a secret technique to hide their true bodies in order to protect them.
Sun Dadi, Princess Baili, Da Sikong, and Er Sikong had all long ago reached the peak realm of a Ninth Order Half-Saint, so it was only after absorbing the Dan Qi that they broke through the realm’s limits and attracted the Quasi-Saint Calamity.
As for Huang Yichen, she had only broken through to the Ninth Order Half-Saint realm not long ago, and at this stage, her cultivation was steadily rising, gradually climbing to the peak of the Ninth Order Half-Saint.
If she wanted to impact the Quasi-Saint realm, she obviously had to accumulate for a while longer.
Sun Di Di was the first to pass through the first Quasi-Saint Tribulation, his entire body was scorched black, with a worm-like electric pattern still flowing through his body, emitting a giggling sound.
At this moment, he appeared to be exceptionally excited, his hands crossed his waist and he laughed up to the sky, “With my current cultivation, I should be able to be ranked into the Semi-Saint Ranking and enter the first tier of the sequence of experts.”
Zhang Ruochen flew over and stood in mid-air three feet above the ground, his hands behind his back as he mercilessly struck him, saying, “You’re still far from the first tier expert sequence, and it’s probably very difficult for you to be ranked in the Semi-Saint List. However, it should be possible to be ranked into the top five hundred of the Outer Half-Saint List.”
“How is that possible, I’ve already crossed my first Quasi-Saint Tribulation, and an iron rod is enough to knock the Beast King down.”Sun Dadi was unconvinced, feeling that Zhang Ruochen had underestimated him.
Zhang Ruochen said, “The path of cultivation is like rowing against the current. As you progress, so do others. Do you think that the prides of the various races on top of the Half-Saint List and the Half-Saint Outer List are all standing still?”
“Your current rate of progress is definitely surpassing theirs, and you’ve already left a large group of powerhouses behind. However, if you don’t continue to cultivate hard, they will also catch up and squeeze you out of the Half-Saint Outer Ranking again.”
The Green Dragon Market Realm gave birth to countless heavenly materials and treasures, and by obtaining just one of them, a cultivator’s cultivation could skyrocket and become a top even powerhouse, leaving other cultivators far behind.
Even Zhang Ruochen didn’t dare to slack off even for a moment, and had to cultivate desperately in order to continue to maintain his current advantage.
If he was arrogant and complacent, then he would soon be squeezed out of the first-tier expert sequence and fall behind once again.
It was for this reason that Zhang Ruochen stood out and mercilessly struck Sun Dadi, hoping that he would continue to cultivate hard and gradually expand his advantage.
Sun Dadi, on the contrary, appeared quite optimistic and laughed, “No matter what, if I meet a Beast King in the future, I will be able to battle with them and not run away. Moreover, I’ve only just reached the realm of the First Juncture Associate Saint, there’s still a lot of room for improvement, and soon, I’ll surely be able to finish abusing them.”
The forty-nine tribulations were not considered dangerous, the vast majority of Half-Saints were able to successfully cross the tribulation, and only a few Half-Saints with insufficient accumulation would fall in the tribulation thunder.
Princess Baili, the Great Sikong, and the Second Sikong, all of them had successfully crossed the forty-nine tribulation and reached the Quasi-Saint realm.
Princess Baili’s cultivation had greatly improved, and her large round eyes glanced in Zhang Ruochen’s direction, before gently rocking her perky hips a little.
“Snap!”
Instantly, the white tail formed a curved arc and lashed out, the tail becoming longer and longer as it attacked Zhang Ruochen, who was standing a hundred feet away.
Above the white tail, an icy cold aura emanated, causing a blade-like snowflake to condense in the air and fly out along with the tail.
Zhang Ruochen’s alertness was extremely high, and just as Princess Baili twisted her arse, he immediately performed Spatial Shift and disappeared from his original spot.
In the next moment, he held the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and appeared in front of Princess Bai Li, pointing the tip of the sword at her brow, his voice extremely cold as he said, “Do you want to die?”
“I just want to try to see if I’ve crossed over into the first-tier expert sequence after reaching the Quasi-Saint realm. What are you being so fierce for?”
Princess Baili put her tail back, somewhat aggrievedly pouting her two crystal red lips, saying, “If this princess really went all out with her attack, how could she use such a slow attack move? You have to know that my speed, is not slower than yours. You are only that much faster than me by virtue of the means of spatial shifting. Hmph!”
Princess Baili wanted to convince Zhang Ruochen, not wanting to get into trouble for killing him because of what happened just now.
She knew that the guy in front of her had a shifty personality, very friendly to his friends and could talk and laugh, but ruthless and inhuman to his enemies, and the savage beasts he killed could be piled up into a mountain.
