“There really is a backhand, actually summoning a Ghost King.”
Knowing that it was impossible to defeat the Blood Moon Ghost King with a single Sacred Soul detachment, the Blood God Sect Master stomped out a stance and fled into the distance.
“Where to go?”
Zhang Ruochen took out the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and executed Sword V, condensing thousands of sword qi and blocking the Blood God Sect Master’s path.
“Just you dare to intercept this Sect Master?”?The Blood God Sect Master’s use of power had already reached a rather exquisite level as he reached out and flicked his finger, striking the top of the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword’s sword, using the dexterity of a four-two-thousand-kilogram force to break Zhang Ruochen’s Sword V.
Zhang Ruochen only felt a mountainous force surging over from the sword, seemingly about to shatter the bones of his hand.
“So powerful.”
Zhang Ruochen hastily took five steps to the side before he was able to dissolve the power of the Blood God Sect Master’s finger.
Zhang Ruochen’s right arm was very sore and numb, his tiger’s mouth cracked and blood slid down his fingertips.
A powerhouse of the Blood God Sect Master’s level was simply too terrifying, his use of martial techniques and power had reached the point of being out of this world.
“I don’t know the heights of heaven, if you were on the ground, this sect master’s holy soul detachment would only need to stretch out a single finger to kill you.”
The Blood God Sect Master attacked again, wanting to subdue Zhang Ruochen as fast as possible and take away the Heavenly Sword.
“Blood Shadow Scattering Hands.”
The Blood God Sect Master’s hands emitted blood aura, presenting thirty-six hand shadows, each finger seemed to be elongated, striking out at Zhang Ruochen’s thirty-six directions, sealing off all his retreats.
As the hand shadows struck out, a series of explosive sounds rang out.
Having to fight quickly, the Blood God Sect Master used a profound martial skill, wanting to take Zhang Ruochen down with just one move.
Zhang Ruochen fully mobilised the Saint Qi in his body and struck out his sword as fast as he could, rolling up one hundred and eight sword shadows that clashed with the hand shadows struck by the Blood God Sect Master.
“Boom boom.”?The thirty-six hand shadows, all of which were real hands, struck against the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, sending out spark after spark.
“Worthy of being a Time Successor, it’s really powerful.”
The Blood God Sect Master quickly changed his stance, turning his palm into a finger, and his right index finger turned into a series of flames, striking Zhang Ruochen’s heart.
His change of moves was as fast as lightning, making it impossible to defend.
Zhang Ruochen sucked in a breath of cool air, the speed of his change of moves was simply unable to keep up with the Blood God Sect Master, so he could only cross his sword and perform a defensive move.
“Boom.”
The finger with fire light struck the top of the sword, causing the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword to bend inwards, forming a “bow” shape.
In the next moment, Zhang Ruochen flew out backwards as if he was a cannonball, crashing into the top of the hard stone wall, collapsing a large portion of it.
Zhang Ruochen’s arms were covered in blood, a sharp pain came from the location of his heart, and immediately after, a mouthful of blood was spat out as his throat became sweet.
Just now, the body of the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword had indeed blocked the Blood God Sect Master’s finger.
However, there was a finger force that penetrated the sword body and struck Zhang Ruochen’s heart, causing him to suffer internal injuries.
“The gap between us is simply too great, and the outcome was already predetermined a long time ago. If you had surrendered the Monstrous Sword earlier, how would you have suffered the pain of skin and flesh?”
The Blood God Sect Master gently shook his head as if he were a large black bird, soaring up, his five fingers bent and pinched into a claw shape as he struck at Zhang Ruochen below.
“Boundary Son Seal.”
Huang Yichen shouted delicately and flung her arm out, striking the Boundary Son Seal out, striking at the Blood God Sect Master who was flying in mid-air.
In the Endless Abyss, her cultivation suffered suppression and she was unable to mobilise a large amount of holy qi, so she was unable to inspire the true power of the Boundary Son Seal.
Without even glancing at Huang Yichen, the Blood God Sect Master slapped out a backhanded palm, causing the Boundary Son Seal to fly back and strike Huang Yichen’s chest.
At the last moment, Huang Yichen shielded his arms in front of his chest, blocking the Boundary Son Seal.
“Snap.”
The sound of bones shattering rang out.
Huang Yichen threw himself away and fell to the ground, the hand bones of both arms broken and bloody, unable to lift them up again.
The Blood God Sect Master’s Sacred Soul Doppelganger was too powerful, and it wasn’t an easy task to block his strike.
“Die for me.”
The black robes on the Blood God Cult Master’s body completely flew up, each piece of the lapel was like a blade as it sliced through the air, emitting a whistling sound.
It looked like the claw marks of the Blood God Sect Master were about to land on top of Zhang Ruochen’s head.
Suddenly, the speed of the Blood God Sect Master, however, became slower and slower.
No.
It wasn’t that the Blood God Sect Master’s speed of striking out slowed down, but the flow of time around him and Zhang Ruochen became slower and slower.
The scene in front of him was quite bizarre, the claw print of the Blood God Sect Master was only a foot away from Zhang Ruochen’s head, and as long as it fell, it would be able to claw through Zhang Ruochen’s skull.
However, Zhang Ruochen remained where he was, motionless.
In the next instant, Zhang Ruochen swung his sword out.
“Wow…”
The speed at which Zhang Ruochen swung out his sword was so fast that it was impossible to distinguish using the naked eye, and by the time he withdrew his sword, the Blood God Sect Master’s Sacred Soul Split had already been broken into two.
“Perish for me.”?Zhang Ruochen was still uneasy, worried that the Holy Soul Split of the Blood God Sect Master would be able to regroup, so he struck out two more palms, breaking the two Holy Soul Splits into two balls of blood mist.
“Luckily, I just realised the third realm of the Time Sword Technique, the Twelve Hours Sword Technique, or else, today would definitely be a fateful day.”
Being pushed to the limit of life and death, Zhang Ruochen had a new realisation of the Time Sword Technique and finally stepped into the threshold of entering the third realm.
At this moment, in his mind, there were twelve silhouettes lined up in a circle, dancing with swords, their sword strokes varying, each representing the twelve hours of the day.
If it wasn’t for the fact that, there were more important things to do, Zhang Ruochen really wanted to immediately enter the world of picture scrolls to comprehend the sword technique.
A sharp pain came from his heart, causing Zhang Ruochen’s body to spasm in pain.
Zhang Ruochen covered his chest and coughed twice, coughing up blood once again, then, revolving his gongfu, he forcefully suppressed his injuries.
Zhang Ruochen rushed over to Huang Yichen, checking her injuries.
Not only were the bones in Huang Yichen’s arms broken, her internal organs were also damaged to varying degrees, causing Zhang Ruochen to feel heartbroken.
Huang Yichen had suffered such heavy injuries because she had saved him.
“You’re badly injured, go into the Scroll World first to heal your injuries.”
Zhang Ruochen wrapped his arms around Huang Yichen’s neck and waist, picked her up from the ground, and sent her into the Figure Scroll World.
By the time Zhang Ruochen stepped out of the Figure Scroll World again, the Blood Moon Ghost King had already cleaved the Winged Dragon Blood Beast to death and extracted the Winged Dragon Blood Beast’s beast soul to refine a Soul Pill.
No wonder the Blood Moon Ghost King was so active, it was really for the Soul Pill.
The Blood Moon Ghost King put away the Soul Pill and stared at the huge dragon corpse on the ground, saying, “This one Winged Dragon is quite bizarre, its fleshly strength and fleshly defence are far more than that of a normal Winged Dragon.”
Zhang Ruochen dug out the Saint Source within the Winged Dragon Blood Beast and pocketed it into his spatial ring, saying, “I annihilated the Blood God Sect Master’s Saint Soul Branches, so his true body must have sensed it, and has most likely already rushed towards the Endless Abyss.”
The Blood Moon Ghost King said indifferently, “With my current realm, I’m not yet a match for the Blood God Cult Master, so I advise you to run for your life.”
Subsequently, the Blood Moon Ghost King entered the Touhou World, not intending to strike again.
……
…………
Zhang Ruochen still underestimated the sensing between the two, the Sacred Soul Split and the true body, in fact, everything that the Sacred Soul Split saw and heard, the true body could sense in the first instance.
Just as Zhang Ruochen invited the Blood Moon Ghost King out, the true body of the Blood God Sect’s Lord had already been stirred.
He slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the Endless Abyss, muttering to himself, ”Time and Space Transmitter Zhang Ruochen, there’s also a Ghost King, they actually reached the Endless Abyss through a spatial teleportation array. They absolutely cannot be allowed to discover the secrets of the Endless Abyss, they must be obliterated.”
“Wow!”
The Blood God Sect Master transformed into a ray of bloody light and shot up into the sky, flying into the Absolute Ancient Snow Mountain and rushing towards the Endless Abyss.
The first rung of the Endless Abyss.
Zhang Ruochen took out the Light Attribute Spirit Crystal and held it in his hand, illuminating the surroundings as he looked over towards where the Spatial Teleportation Formation was located, wanting to escape through the Spatial Teleportation Formation.
However, he realised that when he was fighting with the Blood God Sect’s Sacred Soul Split earlier, Little Black had already dug out the Spatial Teleportation Formation and incorporated it into its Spatial Bracelet.
“What are you doing?”Zhang Ruochen asked.
Little Black tightly covered the spatial bracelet, fearing that Zhang Ruochen would snatch it away, and said, “Through this spatial teleportation array, we can travel to the Ghost Gate Pass, it absolutely cannot be damaged, keep it here in this Emperor first.”
“Hurry up and take it out, we need to escape through the spatial teleportation array now.”
Zhang Ruochen chided, his heart was anxious because, the Blood God Sect Master would arrive at any moment.
Little Black snorted, “Trying to trick the Spatial Teleportation Formation out of this Emperor’s hands? How smart is this Emperor, would he fall for your trick?”
Just then, Zhang Ruochen sensed an intimidating Saint Might that pressed down from above, causing the air and ground to tremble.
“Suffered ……?”Zhang Ruochen’s face became quite ugly as he looked up, only to see, in the pitch-black sky, a dark-red cloud, rapidly flying downwards, quickly reaching above his and Little Black’s heads.
The blood mist was slowly rotating, emitting a rumbling thunderous sound.
One didn’t need to guess to know that it must be the arrival of the true body of the Blood God Sect Master. He had come too quickly, and even if Little Black hadn’t delayed, I was afraid that Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t have been able to escape.
Xiao Hei looked up above and was also stunned as he sucked in a breath and said, “Zhang Ruochen, you …… you should have …… warned this Emperor earlier, maybe we have already escaped.”
Zhang Ruochen rolled his eyes, this shirking of responsibility, also shirking too quickly.
“Zhang Ruochen, where is that Ghost King?”
A deep, muddled voice resounded from the blood clouds.
The Saintly Might emanating from the Blood God Sect’s Lord was quite powerful, shocking Zhang Ruochen so much that he couldn’t even remain standing, and could only half-kneel on the ground, using his hands to prop up the ground before he didn’t get down.
The two men’s cultivation levels were a hundred thousand miles apart, as if they were a god looking down on a mortal.
Just when Zhang Ruochen was thinking that it would be difficult to escape today, the pressure on his body suddenly loosened.
What’s going on?Zhang Ruochen raised his head and looked forward.
A grey-clothed old man, from the darkness, walked out unhurriedly and came to Zhang Ruochen’s side.
The qi energy emanating from the grey-clothed old man’s body formed a light shield that protected Zhang Ruochen and Xiao Hei against the Holy Might of the Blood God Sect Master.
“It’s him.”
Zhang Ruochen recognised the grey-clothed old man as the Blood God Sect’s Supreme Elder, who sat at the top of Qian Yuan Mountain, guarding the Blood God Diagram.
Zhang Ruochen had met him once when he was comprehending the Blood God Diagram.
How did he also come to the Endless Abyss?
The grey-clothed old man wore a smile on his face as he gently nodded at Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen’s heart was slightly startled, and he somewhat wondered if the grey-clothed old man had already recognised him? Or perhaps, when Zhang Ruochen had been at Mount Qianyuan to study the Blood God Diagram, he had not been able to hide it from him at all.
The grey-clothed old man looked towards the blood clouds above, his essence becoming stern, appearing sharp as he raised his voice, “Lin Yuan, do you still want to continue to be wrong?”
