A large river dozens of feet wide flew up, twisting and entangling together, transforming into an ice crystal lance that released a compelling cold aura.
The surging power shook the heavens and earth.
On the opposite bank of the great river, the man wearing a blood robe, snorted coldly, “How dare you use your palm to resist this strike, you are really looking for death.”
The tip of the ice crystal spear was incomparably sharp, seemingly able to penetrate everything in the world.
Zhang Ruochen’s palm, which collided with the Ice Crystal Lance, immediately resounded with a roar.
A mountainous force came from the palm, shocking Zhang Ruochen backwards, retreating to more than ten miles away in a row.
“Break for me.”
Zhang Ruochen roared, all the 144 orifices in his body opened up, emitting a huge aura like a flooded and mangled beast, and his five fingers powered up as he pushed forward.
“Crack.”
Cracks surfaced at the tip position of the ice crystal lance and spread out, and in the end, it directly shattered and opened up, as if a rain of hailstones was falling from the sky.
Just a moment ago, the blood-robed man had already walked over to the Yellow Heavenly Imperial Daughter’s side, taking out a maroon coloured elixir and giving it to her to consume.
After swallowing the elixir, the Yellow Heavenly Empress was sitting on the ground, a red cocoon of light emerging from the periphery of her body.
She was using the power of the elixir to go all out to dissolve the power of the White Sun Arrow.
The blood-robed man looked over towards Zhang Ruochen, a strange look appearing in his eyes as he said, “A human who can cultivate his physical body to the Saint realm is quite rare.”
In the Kunlun Realm, the Savage Beasts and Immortal Blood Race had an innate advantage, and their fleshly bodies were very powerful. Comparatively speaking, it was easier for them to cultivate their fleshly bodies to sainthood than humans.
Even so, wanting to achieve fleshly body sainthood was a thousand times more difficult for the Savage Beasts and Immortal Blood Race.
For a human to be able to achieve Flesh Body Sainthood was naturally a very surprising thing.
Zhang Ruochen walked over with large strides and said, “For an Immortal Blood Race to be able to cultivate their spiritual power to a level like yours is also very rare.”
Through the exchange just now, Zhang Ruochen had already roughly guessed that the blood-robed man’s spiritual strength should be close to the fifty-two stage, and even an Upper Realm Saint might not be his match.
“However, this Saint can see that you have only just reached Flesh Body Sainthood a short while ago, and your use of flesh body power is still at a very shallow level.”
The blood-robed man’s observation was quite keen, and he thought that he had already seen through Zhang Ruochen, then, he smiled faintly, “This Saint, my name is Tianluo. Today, since we have met, we will come to meet you, a human who has become a Saint in flesh.”
Spiritual power saints had bizarre and unpredictable abilities, not to mention, Saint Tianluo was also a spiritual power genius, and his use of spiritual power had already reached the point of subtlety, so naturally, he would not be afraid of a human who had just attained sainthood in the flesh.
Controlling the staff in his hand, Saint Tian Luo fiercely pressed downwards, inserting it into a large section of the ground.
Immediately afterwards, nine circular gullies surfaced in a row with his feet as the centre.
Crimson blood, overflowing from the soil, filled the gullies. The nine gullies were much like transforming into nine circular rivers of blood.
The smallest blood river was only three zhang in diameter.
The largest blood river was thirty miles in diameter.
The nine ring-shaped blood rivers, one layer set upon another, emerged as nine layers of blood qi light walls that rushed straight into the sky.
The spiritual power spell executed by the Heavenly Loop Saint was called the “Nine Rivers Forbidden Dragon Technique”, which had both a very powerful attack and an exceptionally strong defence.
When fighting a martial artist who had become a Sage of the Physical Body, Saint Tianluo did not dare to be careless in the slightest, because once the other party got close to him, then he would die for sure.
Zhang Ruochen was enveloped within the range of the Nine Rivers Forbidden Dragon Technique, and all he could feel was that the rules of the heavens and earth had become incomparably chaotic, and the ground beneath his feet was very much like it had turned into a swamp, making it difficult for him to move an inch.
In such a situation, even if he performed spatial shifting, I was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to get close to the Heavenly Lore Saint.
Not far from this place, in a valley, two Immortal Blood Race cultivators wearing identical blood robes to the Heavenly Lore Saint looked into the sky, seemingly able to see through the void.
In the centre of one person’s brow, there was a white five-pointed star;
The other had a black five-pointed star printed on his brow.
The Immortal Blood Race cultivator with the black five-pointed star on his brow was named Chen Yi, and he was Mr Mu Qian’s eldest disciple.
Chen Yi appeared calm and collected as he said, “The Nine Rivers Forbidden Dragon Technique is a secret technique recorded above the Ten Thousand Dharma Treasures Canon, once he falls into it, even if he’s a Time and Space Transmitter, he’ll still have to be captured with his hands.”
“The Heavenly Dao is meant to be mutually exclusive, even the power of time and space cannot be invincible, there are always means that can restrain them.”The Immortal Blood Race cultivator with a white five-pointed star imprinted on her brow said.
She was Mr Mu Qian’s second disciple, named Chen Xi.
Chen Yi said, “Next, let’s see how long Zhang Ruochen can hold out in the Nine Rivers Forbidden Dragon Technique, hopefully it won’t be too weak.”
Chen Xi nodded and said, “Only the stronger he is, the more valuable his blood will be.”
Zhang Ruochen released his spatial domain to cover the area where the Nine Rivers Forbidden Dragon Technique was located, and gradually, he was finally able to stand firm and discern his bearings.
“Wow…”
Just to his left, a blood-armoured giant with a height of three zhang flew up from the river of blood, holding a broadsword that slashed diagonally towards Zhang Ruochen’s neck.
Zhang Ruochen slightly sidestepped and dodged.
“Rumble.”
The broadsword that the blood-armoured giant slashed out struck the ground, forming a huge sword crater.
The sword wind, which scraped against Zhang Ruochen’s face, transmitted a stinging sensation.
“What a powerful mental power spell, it’s not even a phantom, it’s really a Saint Blood-armoured Giant that is comparable to the Lower Realm.”Zhang Ruochen was somewhat surprised.
Zhang Ruochen summoned the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and swept the sword horizontally, directly cutting the blood-armoured giant in two.
Immediately afterwards, the body of the Blood Armoured Giant burst apart and turned into two balls of blood mist.
With a wave of his finger, Zhang Ruochen punched out a spatial rift, tearing through a wall of blood-qi light as he broke through towards the centre of the Nine Layers of Blood River.
In the blood river, powerful beings constantly rushed out to block Zhang Ruochen’s steps.
Blood-armoured giants comparable to saints, blood-red skeletons hundreds of meters tall, and teng snakes with four wings …… The closer they got to the central area, the more powerful the living beings that rushed out from the blood river became.
By the time Zhang Ruochen broke into into the eighth blood river, beads of sweat were already appearing on the forehead of the Heavenly Lore Saint, feeling no small amount of pressure.
“The Time Transmitter’s methods are truly extraordinary, to think that even the Nine Rivers Forbidden Dragon Technique couldn’t suppress him?”
Suddenly, the Heavenly Lore Saint felt a great crisis, and the blood in his body was about to stop flowing.
Only to see that Zhang Ruochen, who was still on the outside of the eighth blood river, had actually used the means of human sword unification, transforming into a sword aura that pierced through two layers of blood gas light walls in a row and appeared in front of the Heavenly Lore Saint.
“That’s …… Sword Six.”
Tianluo Saint’s heart jumped violently as he grabbed the staff with both hands and shouted, “Hop.”
The nine ring-shaped rivers of blood, rapidly closing in, converged on top of the staff, forming a shield that resisted forward.
The tip of the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, striking the centre of the blood-coloured shield, immediately sank downwards, seemingly to penetrate the shield and strike the heart of the Heavenly Lore Saint’s brow.
The Heavenly Lore Saint clenched his teeth, his eyes staring ahead as he watched the pitch-black tip of the sword, continuously approaching over, and his legs began to tremble slightly.
“What a formidable temporal transmitter.”
The two of them, Chen Yi and Chen Xi, sensed the crisis of the Heavenly Lore Sage and knew that the Space-Time Transmitter was too powerful, and that the Heavenly Lore Sage would most likely not be able to withstand it.
Thus, the two of them harnessed the power of wind and fire respectively and hurried towards the battlefield.
Zhang Ruochen naturally sensed that another Saint realm expert was rushing over, and secretly said, “I can’t continue to be in a stalemate with the Heavenly Lore Saint, and by the time those two Immortal Blood Race Saints arrive, it will be quite unfavourable for me.”
Just when the Tianluo Saint was all a bit unable to resist, Zhang Ruochen was withdrawing some of his power.
Immediately, the Heavenly Lore Saint felt the pressure on his body loosen, thinking that Zhang Ruochen was unable to follow through, so he wanted to take this opportunity to launch a counterattack.
“A time and space transmitter is nothing more than that, die for me.”
The blood robe on the Heavenly Lore Saint flew up, and the spiritual energy in his body surged outwards, all of it infused into the shield seal, and he fiercely pressed forwards.
Zhang Ruochen retreated backwards, and at the same time, his eyes narrowed into a slit, his eyes so sharp that they resembled sharp swords.
“Zi Jian.”
The Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword drew a stunningly beautiful arc, fusing with the Time Seal, causing the surrounding time to pause, slightly.
It was in this instant that the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword passed through the shield seal from the side, and with a snort, pierced through the heart of the Heavenly Lore Saint.
A muffled sound came out of the Tianluo Saint’s mouth, his eyes widened with a look of disbelief in his eyes, and he looked down towards his heart, “How …… how is it possible …… what kind of sword art is this?……”
For spiritual power cultivators, the heart was more important than the head.
Once the Sacred Heart was broken, then a large portion of the spiritual power that had been fortunately and painstakingly cultivated would be wasted.
The Chen Yi Sage and Chen Xi Sage, who hurried over, also paused slightly, and then, with roars of fury emanating from their mouths, each of them struck out a spell and attacked Zhang Ruochen.
The remaining light of Zhang Ruochen’s eyes glanced behind him.
“Wow…”
The sword light flashed, slashing out dozens of swords in a row.
The body of the Heavenly Lore Saint turned into dozens of shattered corpses as if it had been sliced into tofu.
This was how a powerful Spiritual Power Saint fell.
Immediately after, Zhang Ruochen probed out a palm, pierced through the blood cocoon, and grabbed the Yellow Heavenly Imperial Daughter, who was sitting on the ground, and used her as a shield, blocking her forward as he roared out, “Don’t stop yet.”
Sage Chen Yi and Sage Chen Xi had to put away their spiritual power and control the spells they had already struck out, fearing that they would hurt the Yellow Sky Emperoress.
The strength of Sage Chen Yi and Sage Chen Xi’s spiritual power was still above that of Sage Tianluo, causing Zhang Ruochen to feel a considerable sense of oppression, and having to capture the Yellow Heavenly Empress and use her as a hostage, causing the two Immortal Blood Race Sages to throw themselves at the mercy of the two Immortal Blood Race Saints.
Saint Chen Yi snorted coldly, “Zhang Ruochen, you think that you can save your own life by capturing Her Imperial Highness? You’re too naive, aren’t you?”
“In that case, you guys do have the means to kill me before I kill the Yellow Sky Imperial Daughter?”Zhang Ruochen laughed.
“Our strength, we haven’t reached that point yet. However, with the strength of Master Teacher’s spiritual power, you wouldn’t even think of moving a finger in front of him.”
Sage Chen Yi and Sage Chen Xi retreated to the left and right, then, bowing to the empty void, they saluted, saying, “Greetings, Master Teacher.”
