Zhang Ruochen’s strength was indeed quite powerful, reaching the level of a Super Tier 1 powerhouse, however, no one believed that he would be able to fight against the entire Immortal Blood Clan.
The Devil Heavenly Prince, the Pure Heavenly Prince, and the Yellow Heavenly Imperial Daughter were all first-tier powerhouses, with their battle power not below that of the Green Heavenly Prince, and the three of them were strong enough to fight against a Super Tier 1 powerhouse.
The staff that was inserted at the foot of the mountain, the light that emanated from it, turned out to be more and more intense, tearing the earth into more and more broken pieces.
“That’s an ancient sacred weapon of the Pure Heaven Tribe called the Square Inch Sacred Staff, and it’s said that by a Spiritual Power Saint pushing it with all their might, they can change the alignment of the earth’s veins, move mountains and fill in the sea and create land.”
“Prince Pure Heaven is a spiritual power heavenly pride, with a spiritual power strength infinitely close to the fiftieth rank, and with the Fang Cun Holy Staff, the battle power that erupts from it is much more powerful than a normal first-tier powerhouse.”
The earth beneath the feet of the crowd was shaking violently, the mountain of Dragon Top Mountain had sunk more than eight hundred metres, and the dust and dirt that surged up from the ground formed a black cloud, making this part of the sky and the earth incomparably dim.
Zhang Ruochen stood at the top of the mountain, pulling the Green Sky Bow apart and aiming it at Prince Pure Heaven at the foot of the mountain.
“Zhang Ruochen, your opponent is me.”
The Demon Heavenly Prince’s body was six metres tall, his entire body was covered in black demonic patterns, and on his back were two pairs of dark red fleshy wings, holding a seven metre long black giant sword as he swung it down towards Zhang Ruochen.
Above the blade of the huge black sword, a black stream of light flowed, emitting a giggling sound.
The Demon Heavenly Prince was ranked third in the Semi-Saint Outer Ranking and had already reached the Quasi-Saint realm, and was only half a step away from being a Super Tier 1 powerhouse.
Zhang Ruochen glanced towards the Devil Heavenly Prince who had attacked close to him, and with a release of his five fingers, he released the bowstring, and a circle of holy qi waves scattered outwards along the bowstring.
“Boom.”
The White Sun Arrow flew out and shot down the mountain.
Prince Pure Heaven’s face changed slightly as he fully mobilised his spiritual energy and gathered it into his ten fingers as he silently chanted, “Pure Destruction Ten Seals.”
What Prince Pure Heaven had cast out was a tenth level earth defence type spell, and in the next moment, a steady stream of heaven and earth aura converged over, and in front of him, ten layers of millstone-sized blood-red shields coalesced.
Obviously, they were formed by the convergence of heaven and earth aura, but they were exactly like shields made of metal, three feet thick, emitting a metallic glow.
“Boom boom.”
The White Sun Arrow collided with the blood-red shield, and in a split second, it released a shocking amount of power that shattered the shield to smithereens.
Ten explosions rang out in a row, and the Ten Heavy Seals of Pure Destruction shattered as much as they could.
The White Sun Arrow flew past the edge of the Pure Heavenly Crown Prince’s neck, and just the wind force formed by the flight of the arrow left a deep bloodstain on the Pure Heavenly Crown Prince’s neck.
Hot dewy blood flowed out, staining the lapel of his collar red.
With a boom, the White Sun Arrow struck the ground, leaving a deep, bottomless pit. All around the pit were spiderweb-like cracks, giving a shocking feeling.
“Pity!”
Zhang Ruochen gently shook his head and sighed.
Just now, that arrow was interfered with by the Demonic Heavenly Prince and lost its accuracy, otherwise, even if he had killed the Unholy Heavenly Prince, he would have been able to seriously injure him.
At this moment, the seven-metre long giant sword in the hands of the Devil Heavenly Prince was already hanging above Zhang Ruochen’s head, making it impossible for Zhang Ruochen to make up for the second arrow.
“Die for me.”
Prince Devil Sky’s body had a monstrous demonic aura, and his arms were thicker than pillars, full of explosive power.
Zhang Ruochen grabbed the bow bone of the Green Sky Bow with one hand, shifted his feet horizontally, turned his body around, and a low-pitched dragon roar resounded from his arm as he slashed the Green Sky Bow out, colliding with the huge black sword.
“Boom.”
After the collision of strikes, the Demon Heavenly Prince was jerked backwards.
Zhang Ruochen also took three steps backward, stepping out three large pits of deep footprints before dissolving that force and regaining his footing.
“Worthy of being the third ranked character in the Half-Saint Outer Ranking, the power that erupted from it is actually a shade more powerful than Prince Qing Tian.”Zhang Ruochen smiled faintly.
Prince Devil Heaven landed on the ground, grasping the hilt of his sword with both hands as he plunged his huge black sword into the soil, his voice quite thick as he said, “Qing Ye only absorbed the blood of the ancient relic species of Mythical Geibeast and obtained the remnants of the Mythical Geibe Tantric Sect, which is why he was able to saintly transform the one hundred and thirty-two orifices and possess a formidable physical body strength.”
“However, the remnants are still remnants, and even if he was able to sanctify one hundred and thirty-two orifices, even if he hasn’t reached the limit yet, he isn’t far from the limit, and it’s simply impossible for him to cultivate to the point of becoming a saint of the fleshly body. With that little power of his, how can he be compared to me?”
Flesh body cultivation was not a matter of piling up resources.
For an ordinary cultivator, even if he was given more divine blood, it would be impossible for him to reach the point of fleshly body sainthood.
Even a supreme heavenly pride like Prince Qingtian, coupled with a divine level technique like the Mythical Beast Tantric Sect, had only managed to cultivate into one hundred and thirty-two orifices with great difficulty.
It seemed like there were only twelve orifices short of becoming a saint in the flesh. However, those twelve orifices were definitely harder than one, and the difficulty would increase exponentially.
It could be said that the possibility of Prince Qingtian’s fleshly body becoming a saint was quite slim, unless he was able to obtain a more complete Mythical Beast Tantric Sect Technique, then he would have a chance of success.
Zhang Ruochen revealed an interested expression and said, “In that case, you are also cultivating your fleshly body?”
“That’s right.”
The Devil Heavenly Prince’s legs slightly parted, and immediately, the blood in his body flowed rapidly, emitting a “rumbling” sound.
Every blood vessel was like a huge river, and the sound of the blood flowing was just as loud as the turbulent water.
Only those who had cultivated their fleshly bodies to an astonishing level could withstand such an exuberant blood qi.
Zhang Ruochen cast the Eye of Divine Seal and saw that within the body of the Demon Heavenly Prince, there were actually eight blood-red meridians. One end of the meridians was connected to blood, and the other end was connected to the Qi Sea.
Those were blood spirit veins.
“You actually opened up eight Blood Spirit Veins.”Zhang Ruochen said in awe.
One must know that in orthodox flesh body cultivation, the more blood spirit veins a cultivator opened up, the higher their future achievements would be.
As long as five blood spirit veins were opened up, the cultivator would have a good chance of reaching the height of fleshly body sainthood.
Eight hundred years ago, there was a strange person from the Blood God Sect who had opened up seven blood spirit veins and had not only cultivated his physical body to sainthood, but also almost cultivated his physical body to the realm of the Great Saints, and was known as the “Tenth Emperor”.
The Devil Heavenly Prince was even more powerful than that strange person from the Blood God Sect, cultivating eight Blood Spirit Veins, so it was no wonder that Zhang Ruochen revealed a look of surprise.
“That’s right, this Prince has indeed opened up eight Blood Spirit Veins.”The Devil Heavenly Prince’s voice sunk mixed and said with great confidence.
Opening up eight Blood Spirit Veins was laying a solid foundation for cultivating to the fleshly body, and it had always been one of the things that Prince Devil Heaven was most proud of.
Present, but all the beings who understood the cultivation of the physical body were all shocked beyond words.
It wasn’t even an easy task for a regular person to open up a single blood spirit vein, let alone eight.
“For Prince Devil Heaven to be able to enter the top three of the Semi-Saint Outer Rankings, he really is quite a terrifying figure, and in other eras, he would more than likely be able to be invincible.”
Shangguan Xianyan, the Holy Maiden of the Blood God Sect, exhaled a long breath, her heart difficult to calm.
She had once gone to the Blood God Diagram, wanting to use it to open the door to cultivating her fleshly body, however, not a single blood spirit vein had been opened up, ending in failure.
Thus, Shangguan Xianyan was very clear about how remarkable it was to be able to open up eight blood spirit veins.
“There are too many heavenly prides in this era, any being that can be ranked into the top 30 of the Half-Saint List and the Half-Saint Outer List is definitely one of the strongest in other eras.”Wan Huayu sighed.
Among the Nine Great Realm Sons, not everyone could be ranked in the top thirty.
From this, it could be seen how difficult it was to rank in the top thirty. I’m afraid that even in the Middle Ages, the beings that could be ranked in the top five were all first-class characters.
“Autumn Rain, Qi Sheng, Zhang Ruochen, Grandmaster Standing Ground, Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon, and Snowless Night are all too outstanding, overshadowing the light on the other living beings. Otherwise, a character like the Demon Heavenly Prince would be destined to shake the world with might and radiance, becoming synonymous with invincibility.”
The crowd was murmuring, feeling incredulous.
Originally, everyone felt that no one could be Zhang Ruochen’s opponent without Qi Yu, who was number one on the Half-Saint Ranking, and Qi Sheng, who was number one on the Half-Saint Outer Ranking, making a move. But now, they were a little shaken, with the strength of the Demonic Heavenly Prince, he was definitely able to fight with Zhang Ruochen.
“To be able to open up eight Blood Spirit Veins is indeed already quite remarkable and worthy of admiration.”Zhang Ruochen said.
The Devil Heavenly Prince revealed a cold, craggy smile, and in his smile, a hint of smugness unconsciously flowed out.
Zhang Ruochen’s words took another turn as he said, “However, when you fight me, you will definitely lose.”
Just as the words fell, Zhang Ruochen’s body also emitted the sound of blood flowing like a rushing river, and ten Blood Spirit Veins were revealed, connecting the Qi Sea and the blood as if they were ten volatile Heavenly Rivers.
The Devil Heavenly Prince stared with wide eyes, revealing an incredulous expression, even his hands that were pinching the hilt of his sword were gently trembling.
“Ten …… blood spirit veins.”
Even the Vermilion Bird Immortal, the Kun Clan’s Imperial Prince, and the Heavenly King of Jail, who were such ancient titans, all sucked in a breath of cold air, feeling shocked.
One must know that during the Taikoo period, the vast majority of living beings would cultivate their fleshly bodies, and, there were not a few living beings who were able to achieve fleshly body sainthood.
As such, most every race from the Taikoo period had mastered one or two techniques to open up blood spirit veins.
Being an ancient relic race, they naturally knew exactly how perverse it was to be able to open up ten blood spirit veins.
“No wonder they dare to call out to Autumn Rain, they really do have very strong capital.”
The Vermillion Bird Fairy’s eyelashes fluttered gently as the flames on her body became more and more vigorous, having a strong killing intent surging out along with the flames.
Since Zhang Ruochen had already been offended, it was also necessary to get rid of him as early as possible and not let him continue to grow.
The Vermillion Bird Fairy unfurled a pair of splendid flame feathered wings, like a goddess above the Nine Heavens, and flew down from the clouds, attacking and killing Zhang Ruochen on the Dragon Peak Mountain.
Xue Wuyi transformed into a sword light and flew into mid-air, blocking the Vermillion Bird Fairy’s path, appearing to have a graceful appearance as he laughed, ”Fairy, last time, our short gathering at the Yunmiao Lake ended up disagreeing. Today, shall we find a place with pleasant scenery and once again explore some of the wondrous aspects of the Sword Dao rules?”
In the end, the Vermillion Bird Fairy failed to join in the battle between Zhang Ruochen and the Demonic Heavenly Prince, and battled with Xue Wuyue.
Immediately after, the Heaven Swallowing Devil Dragon, the Kun Clan’s Imperial Prince, and the Jail Heavenly King also rushed towards the Dragon Peak Mountain, wanting to join forces with the Immortal Blood Clan’s two Crown Princes and an Imperial Daughter to encircle and kill Zhang Ruochen, the human race’s great enemy.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
The Standing Monk recited a Buddhist chant, and then, manifested the golden body of the Buddha Emperor to intercept the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon.
In the other direction, Ah Le and Banzai Chi attacked, blocking the Kun Clan’s Imperial Son and the Quod Heavenly King respectively.
The great battle located on Dragon Peak Mountain erupted once again, and this time, the scale of the battle was even more astonishing, with the topmost powerhouses of the Human Race, the Immortal Blood Race, and the Savage Beasts, almost all of them participating in the battle.
