“Zhang Ruochen, the Life and Death Tribulation is the most terrifying tribulation, and many geniuses have died in this tribulation. The calamity thunder will soon fall again, don’t you want to die?”
From the mouth of Saint Wan Xin, a hissing sound came out, and at the same time, he flapped his blood wings with all his might, fleeing into the distance.
“Before I am struck to death by the calamity lightning, I will definitely behead you first.”Zhang Ruochen said.
As Zhang Ruochen rushed towards Saint Wan Xin, the sky’s calamity clouds followed him over. A thick streak of lightning twisted and tangled together, and with a clatter, it struck down.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Zhang Ruochen and Saint Wan Xin were both struck by the lightning of the calamity, their bodies trembling as they fell to the ground at the same time.
Zhang Ruochen’s fleshly body was powerful, with all 144 orifices in his body opening up, emitting bright holy light and resisting the power of the lightning.
However, Saint Wan Xin’s physical body wasn’t as strong, and his skin was split as if it had turned into a piece of charcoal, black smoke emanating from his body.
“Sword Six.”
Zhang Ruochen mobilised a powerful sword intent and raised the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword flatly with both hands, thrusting it forward and stabbing it towards Saint Wan Xin’s vest.
“Xuan Ji Finger.”
Saint Wan Xin’s paw stomped and leapt, turning around in the air, pinching out a finger force and striking out with a finger, colliding with the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword.
“Pfft.”
Holy blood splashed out from the tip of the sword.
All of the holy power that Saint Wan Xin had condensed collapsed and was thrown out, and one of his right arms was stirred to pieces by the sword energy.
“No wonder Saint Qing Yi was killed by him with a single sword strike, the Sinking Abyss Sword and Sword Six combined together are indeed irresistible.”
Knowing that he was no match for Zhang Ruochen, Saint Saint Wan Xin no longer hesitated and inspired the Secret Art of Escape, erupting with a speed that surpassed the speed of five times that of just a moment ago.
With such an astonishing speed, even a Tong Tian Realm Saint would never be able to catch up.
“Tear me apart.”
Zhang Ruochen’s palm grabbed forwards, tearing open the space and forming a crack tens of feet long, cutting off the Wan Xin Saint’s path.
They had already rushed out of Taiyin Ancient City and were not within the range of the Light of Death, so they could naturally use the means of the spatial rift.
The Wan Xin Sage forcibly changed direction, avoiding the shattered space in front of him.
“Can’t get away.”Zhang Ruochen chortled coldly.
A black sword blade flew out from the side of the Wan Xin Saint, splitting above his neck and severing his head.
Even though he lost his head, Saint Wan Xin still didn’t die.
His headless body struck out two Saint Art level finger spells, striking Zhang Ruochen’s chest.
“Boom.”
Zhang Ruochen flew backwards, hitting the top of the city wall of Taiyin Ancient City, his body directly embedded in it.
The two finger strengths of Saint Wan Xin struck Zhang Ruochen’s heart and lung lobes respectively, and even with the Ten Saint Blood Armour’s resistance, it still caused Zhang Ruochen to feel incomparable pain, his throat was fishy-sweet, and blood flowed out of his mouth.
Both the heart and lung lobes had suffered considerable damage.
“The dying counterattack of an Upper Realm Saint is truly not a normal terror.”Zhang Ruochen secretly said.
“Rumble.”
An even thicker thunderbolt descended from the calamity cloud, striking Zhang Ruochen and Saint Wan Xin.
Zhang Ruochen resisted this thunderbolt, but two popping sounds came from his ears. He looked in the direction where the popping sounds came from, only to see that, not far away, Sage Wan Xin’s uncommitted body and head were both struck by the lightning and burst into a bloody mist.
A skeleton and a skull, fell to the ground.
Another Upper Realm Saint fell.
Zhang Ruochen examined the injuries in his body and realised that he was more seriously injured, he didn’t dare to deal with another Immortal Blood Race Saint and went all out to transmigrate.
He sat down on the ground and took a healing elixir to heal his injuries while fighting against the lightning tribulation.?The Death Knight, Yao Sheng, and Mister Yasha all escaped the area where the thunder tribulation was located and arrived three hundred miles away, standing on top of a foothill and looking out in the direction of Taiyin Ancient City.
“Saint Wan Xin has been subdued! Zhang Ruochen is really ruthless enough to kill a Saint even when he was in the midst of a tribulation.”
Yao Sheng felt his heart palpitating and was secretly glad that it wasn’t him that Zhang Ruochen was chasing after. Otherwise, even if he was able to withstand Zhang Ruochen’s attack, he was afraid that he would still be killed by the lightning tribulation.
Saint Yasha’s face was grave as he said, ”Zhang Ruochen is only a Second Paramount Sage, and he is already so powerful. Once he crosses the Third Paramount Sacred Tribulation, his battle power will definitely be even higher.”
“Then let’s destroy him first.”
The Death Knight felt quite humiliated, dealing with just one Quasi-Saint and losing three Upper Realm Saints in a row.
Today, if he didn’t kill Zhang Ruochen, he would become a disgrace amongst the Death God Knights.
The Death God Knight grabbed the blood-red spear and poured all of his Saint Qi into it, then, with both arms firing, he projected himself in the direction of Taiyin Ancient City.
The spear was like a shooting star flying in the night sky, releasing crimson flames and pointing directly at Zhang Ruochen, who was sitting below the city wall.
Seeing that Zhang Ruochen was about to be pierced through by the spear, suddenly, a black array disc appeared in front of Zhang Ruochen.
The diameter of the formation disc was more than a hundred feet long, much like a circular shield seal.
The blood-red spear, which collided with the formation disc, in an instant, its speed decreased sharply, and finally came to a complete stop.
The cultivators in the Taiyin Ancient City all let out a sigh of relief.
“There’s actually a formation expert who resisted the Death Knight’s full force strike.”
“Luckily it was blocked, if this strike from the blood-red spear had landed, I’m afraid that half of Taiyin Ancient City would have been destroyed.”
……
The crowd thought that it was a big figure from the Two Element Sect that had arrived, however, someone soon discovered that below the circular array disc, there was clearly a fat cat standing.
That fat cat, which was only a foot tall, stood on the ground with its two paws holding up the array disc.
Who would have thought that it was actually the one that blocked the Death Knight’s attack?
The fat black cat opened its mouth, revealing its sharp teeth, and said, “If this emperor doesn’t give out, do you really think that this emperor is a sick cat?”
The array disc it held above its head actually sucked some of the lightning from the robbing clouds.
Hundreds of purple thunderbolts appeared in the formation disc, and immediately after, the disc flew up, suppressing the Death Knights, Yao Sheng, and Yasha Saints three hundred miles away.
“Is this the cat that the legendary Zhang Ruochen raised?”
Saint Yasha had long heard that Zhang Ruochen was followed by a very powerful cat, thus, he did not dare to take Little Black lightly.
His index and middle fingers were joined together, and powerful spiritual energy, surging out from his fingertips, was injected into the bronze disc.
The bronze disc flew out, and in mid-air, there was a large collision with the lightning array disc.
Little Black and Saint Yasha were clearly hundreds of miles apart, but they were fighting, both wanting to suppress the other.
“Rumble.”
The bronze disc and the lightning array disc struck each other dozens of times in a row, striking the land for hundreds of miles in a circle in a chaotic manner, and many places were turned into scorched earth.
“It’s just a cat, should it be so mighty, it actually fought against the silver-robed elder of the Immortal God Temple.”
“Why haven’t the big shots from the Two Element Sect arrived yet?”
“The lightning of the calamity is getting stronger and stronger, I wonder if Zhang Ruochen can carry it through?”
All of the human cultivators in the city felt worried, desperately hoping that the bigwigs of the Two Yi Sect would hurry over and kill the Death Knight with strong means.
However, the great figures of the Two Element Sect had never rushed over, and the more they waited, the more disappointed they felt.
The sky had already descended seventy-two tribulation thunderbolts, and as long as Zhang Ruochen carried through nine more, he would also have passed through the third Paramount Saint Tribulation – the Life and Death Tribulation.
A female disciple of the Two Element Sect squeezed a pair of jade hands tightly, holding her breath nervously, “I really hope that Zhang Ruochen will quickly pass through the Life and Death Tribulation and use the Five Tribulation Sacred Symbol of Suppressing Sacredness to destroy all of the remaining Immortal Blood Race Saints, that would be a great joy.”
While Xiao Hei was being held back by the Yasha Saint, the Death Knight and Yao Sheng, who stood three hundred miles away, struck out attacking means one after another, striking at Zhang Ruochen in a steady stream.
The Sacred Eating Flower rushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s body, transforming into a ten-thousand feet long vine, resisting the attacks of the Death God Knight and Yao Sheng, buying time for Zhang Ruochen to cross the threshold.
However, both the Death Knight and Yao Sheng’s cultivation were above the Sacred Eater Flower, and they soon hit the Sacred Eater Flower heavily, scorching the vines and leaves.
In the outer area of the lightning tribulation, Huang Yichen and Qing Mo stood in mid-air, their feet stepping on the clouds, while above their heads was a bright, clear moon.
Under the reflection of the moonlight, Huang Yichen’s skin was more crystalline than even Sacred Jade, and her long, ethereal blue hair radiated a grain of light, giving off a cool and dusty aura.
Qing Mo pursed her lips and said, ”County Lord, we’d better make a move! With that fat cat, it won’t be able to stop the three great saints.”
“Wait a little longer, I want to see where the limit of his potential is.”
Huang Yichen’s gaze was as calm as water as he stared at Zhang Ruochen, who was seated below the city wall, curious to know if he could resolve the crisis before him with his own strength?
Below the city wall of Taiyin Ancient City, the vines of the Sacred Eating Flower were almost rendered useless by the beating, and could only shrink back into Zhang Ruochen’s body.
“Zhang Ruochen …… I’ve done my best …… Next …… you can only rely on yourself……”
The voice of the Sacred Flower Eater, was quite weak, and after saying this sentence, he fell into a deep sleep.
The Life and Death Tribulation, a total of eighty-one Tribulation Thunders had to be endured, and now, Zhang Ruochen had already endured seventy-six Tribulation Thunders, and would soon be able to carry through.
However, if he continued to sit under the city to undergo the tribulation, he would definitely be blasted by the Death Knight and Yao Sheng.
At this point, there was no choice but to battle.
Zhang Ruochen stood up boldly, locking onto the direction where the Death God Knight and Yao Sheng were located, and took a step forwards, executing a Spatial Great Shift, directly reaching over a hundred miles away.
Immediately after, a second Spatial Grand Nomination was executed.
“Just now when he crossed the threshold, Zhang Ruochen had already suffered a very serious injury and must be quite weak, so you go and intercept him.”
The Death Knight gave Yao Sheng an order.
Yao Sheng wanted to curse the Death God Knight, everyone knew that even if Zhang Ruochen was weak, he still possessed the Five Tribulation Sacred Symbol of Suppression, and whoever was the first to rush up there would be the first to die.
Obviously, by sending him to deal with Zhang Ruochen first, the Death Knight wanted to use him to nullify Zhang Ruochen’s Five Happening Holy Symbol.
Knowing that it was a death sentence, how could Yao Sheng still rush up?
Yao Sheng simply ignored the Death Knight’s order and performed the Secret Art of Escape, surprisingly escaping directly.
“A person who is greedy and afraid of death.”
The Death God Knight’s hands were cupped into fist seals, and an angry voice came out of his mouth. In the end, he still didn’t bother to kill Yao Sheng, but instead attacked the charging Zhang Ruochen.
