The corpse qi that gushed out from the bottomless pit grew stronger and stronger, causing this area of the city to vibrate violently for more than ten miles in all directions.
With Zhang Ruochen and Princess Baili’s cultivation realm, they were actually somewhat unable to stand on their feet, as if they were about to fly off the ground and be swept inside the vortex.
“Something is not right, the power of the Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor, even if it was stronger, it could not be this powerful. Immediately leave this place and retreat into the spatial maze. Hurry!”Zhang Ruochen shouted.
Potentate, Devil Ape, and Princess Baili rushed towards the abandoned manor as fast as they could and entered into the Spatial Maze.
Zhang Ruochen exited the Bright Mirror Manor, but did not leave, holding onto the Buddha Emperor’s Sharpness to guard himself.
“Rumble.”
A metal arm that was more than sixty metres long and seven or eight metres thick reached out from the bottomless hole, rupturing the earth near the hole.
The power that erupted from that arm shook Zhang Ruochen, causing him to slide backwards tens of feet away.
A large metallic hand, tightly squeezing the Blood Moon Ghost King’s body, each finger was as thick as a pillar, with a streak of dragon-shaped lightning flowing above the fingers, suppressing the Blood Moon Ghost King’s ghostly body to cause a crack to appear.
With her cultivation, she was only able to support herself with all her might before she didn’t die.
“Roar.”
Another earth-shattering hiss came out.
Slowly, that metal arm continued to rise while the earth became even more shattered, and a metal head as huge as a palace rushed out of the ground and was revealed.
Inside the metal shell, it was actually a half-rotted human head, with white bones and blood and flesh co-existing where the face was.
“Rumble.”
The entire ground of the Spiegel Mountain Resort shattered, and a giant corpse clad in metal armour walked out from the ground, revealing a body close to two hundred metres tall.
From it, the power emanating from it was a few degrees more powerful than both Ling Fei Yu and the Spirit King Sacred Ancestor who were fighting.
Zhang Ruochen raised his head and took a deep breath, his face incomparably grave, “King of Sacred Corpses.”
Princess Baili, Huang Yichen, and Qing Mo looked out at the aspect of the Bright Mirror Villa and felt a huge pressure, and hurriedly transmitted their voices to Zhang Ruochen, telling him to hide into the Spatial Mist Formation.
In the distance, on a towering battle platform, Lin Yun and the Cang Lan Martial Saint both had huge changes in their faces as well.
The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor stood on the left shoulder of that Sacred Corpse King, his entire body covered in bloody wounds, his corpse battered and tattered, yet, he still stood proudly, standing straight as he said, “What a formidable Third Tribulation Ghost King, forcing this Emperor to have to use his bottom card in order to subdue her.”
“With your current cultivation level, you are actually able to master a Sacred Corpse King?”Zhang Ruochen had some difficulty understanding.
Even if the Corpse Catching Ancient Clan had mastered the secret art of controlling a war corpse, however, war corpses also had consciousness and were capable of revolting against their masters. Just like a Half Saint, it was difficult to control a Saint-level war corpse.
After a Saint King died, even if it was refined into a war corpse, it still had a strong consciousness.
It was almost impossible for a Saint to get a hold of a Saint Corpse King, and forcing it to be taken in would only result in a backlash from the Saint Corpse King.
The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor smiled and said, ”It was originally a subordinate of this Emperor, and seventy thousand years ago, it had accompanied this Emperor in his conquest of the world, opening up the first central empire of the Human Race after the Middle Ages. Nowadays, it is natural for it to continue to fight alongside this Emperor and create another glory.”
Zhang Ruochen revealed an incredulous expression as he once again surveyed the giant corpse in metal armour and said, “Could …… he be one of the Ten Throne Knights?”
From a young age, Zhang Ruochen had known the legends of the Heaven’s Mandate Emperor and the Ten Throne Knights, and there were even detailed records about them in the literature of the Sacred Brightness Central Empire.
In the historical documents, each one of them was a great man of the heavens and the earth, conquering the Southern Region, invincible, and ultimately, establishing an ancient empire.
Surprisingly, seeing the Heaven’s Destiny Emperor and a Throne Knight with his own eyes, Zhang Ruochen’s feelings at this moment could not be described in words.
The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor said, ”That’s right, it is precisely a Throne Knight. Zhang Ruochen, now you understand that there is still a huge gap between your own undercard and mine, right?”
In the Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor’s view, the Blood Moon Ghost King and Princess Baili were Zhang Ruochen’s bottom cards.
Lin Yun’s entire body was drenched in cold sweat as he said in a trembling voice, “The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor has actually refined a Throne Knight into the King of Sacred Corpses, will there be a second one? A third one? Second Miss, the situation here, is already beyond our control, you’re still ……”
The Cang Lan Martial Saint interrupted and calmly said, “The Throne Knight was turned into the King of Holy Corpses after all, and even though it still has some consciousness, it might not not be able to backfire on the Heavenly Fate Corpse Emperor. With the current cultivation of the Heavenly Fate Corpse Emperor, being able to control one is already the limit.”
Lin Yun said, “Even just one is enough to destroy everything. Second Miss, you’re a body of a thousand gold, you must not have an accident, please hurry and leave.”
“Ling Fei Yu is still here, what are you afraid of?”
Although the Cang Lan Martial Saint said this, however, her eyes were fixed on Zhang Ruochen’s body, and she secretly said in her heart, “In such a situation, Zhang Ruochen, are you still not going to use your hidden secrets?”
At Immortal Machine Mountain, there was a forbidden force that shattered the bone hand of the old ancestor of the Death Race. At that time, Pei Yutian, Qingxiao, and Zhang Ruochen all kept their mouths shut, clearly concealing a huge secret.
The Canglan Martial Saint suspected that that secret was in Zhang Ruochen’s body.
That bone hand was capable of shattering the extra-dimensional planet, yet it was shattered by another force, thus it was evident that that force was quite terrifying and had been enough to threaten the national destiny of the First Central Empire.
Even though he was facing a legend in the history of the human race, Zhang Ruochen was fearless as an even stronger battle intent erupted out, saying, “Throne Knights are indeed quite powerful, but, after all, they are already dead, so how many percent of the power they had when they were alive can they still exert? Is it 10%?”
“Even if it’s just 10%, do you think that it’s possible to kill you?”The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor’s eyes were sharp.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Since, he was once a subordinate who followed you, you should treat him kindly instead of digging him up and refining him into a tool for your battle. Wouldn’t you be sad if his corpse was destroyed?”
“To be able to fight for this emperor after dying is originally something they could only dream of.”
The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor was obviously also guilty in his heart, and unwilling to continue to speak more so as not to be attacked by Zhang Ruochen, he said in a deep voice, “The winner is the king, the loser is the invader, and only those who are alive have the qualification to speak. Great Nonny Throne, exterminate that Third Tribulation Ghost King.”
The King of Sacred Corpses in metal armour had even more gigantic dragon-shaped lightning bolts emerging from his arms, surging into the palms of his hands to crush the Blood Moon Ghost King to the core.
At the same time, the Heaven’s Destiny Corpse King also stretched out his palm and pressed down towards Zhang Ruochen through the air, preparing to suppress Zhang Ruochen and seize the Five Elements Chaotic Body.?”It seems that we can only use its power.”
Zhang Ruochen’s palm touched his chest, and in the next moment, the Saint Match radiated a brilliant light, and a particle of light escaped outwards.
Immediately after, a massive force erupted from Zhang Ruochen’s body.
“Wow!”
Zhang Ruochen shot up into the sky, crashing his body through the handprints struck by the Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor, and flew all the way above the head of the King of Sacred Corpses, gripping his sword with both hands, activating all of the inscriptions in the Ancient Sword of Sinking Abyss as he swung his sword down.
“Boom.”
The battle sword slashed above the arm of the King of Sacred Corpses, colliding with the metal armour and sending out a resounding bang.
The dragon-shaped lightning that flowed on the arm of the King of Sacred Corpses was all scattered by the destructive force that erupted from the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword.
Losing the suppression of the lightning bolts, the Blood Moon Ghost King immediately dispersed his ghostly body and turned into a cloud of ghostly mist, which flew out from within the gap of the Holy Corpse King’s fingers and rushed towards the Spatial Maze.
The King of Sacred Corpses roared, and a mountainous force erupted from his arm, shocking Zhang Ruochen and throwing him out.
However, in an instant, Zhang Ruochen steadied himself again and stood suspended in the air, staring at the white scar mark on the arm of the Sacred Corpse King, saying, “Indeed, it is the legendary Silver Throne Sacred Armour, surprisingly, even the Ancient Sword of the Sinking Abyss couldn’t cut through it.”
For the first time, strong emotional fluctuations arose in the eyes of the Heaven’s Destiny Corpse King, feeling astonished, saying, “You even have another Saint’s Armour, is this your strongest means?”
The points of light emanating from Zhang Ruochen’s body became denser and denser, and his aura grew stronger and stronger, and behind him, a huge blood-red silhouette actually condensed.
This was the Tenth Emperor Yan Li Ren’s “Red Sun Sacred Phase”, which was also the true power of the Sacred Compatibility.
The Spirit King Saint Ancestor and Ling Fei Yu stopped fighting.
“Wow…”
A tattered coffin was the first to fly down from the sky above, slamming into the ground and landing beside the Sacred Corpse King.
The Holy Ancestor of the Spirit King stood up from the coffin, with three bloody sword holes in his body, drops of ruby-like holy blood gushing out from the wounds, looking somewhat miserable.
Ling Feiyu transformed into a sword light and flew down beside Zhang Ruochen, with a slender figure and cold temperament, the Electricity Mother Purple Clothes on her body released a powerful might, with hundreds of thunderbolts surging out to intertwine with the clouds in the sky.
The difference between the two was immediate.
Obviously, Ling Fei Yu had the absolute upper hand, beating the injuries on the Spirit King Saint Ancestor’s body, which became even more serious.
Ling Fei Yu’s eyes carried a disdainful aura as he said, “Who will be destroyed first?”
“Destroy the Heavenly Fate Corpse Emperor first.”Zhang Ruochen said.
In fact, the strength of the Heavenly Fate Corpse Emperor was far inferior to the Spirit King Sacred Ancestor. Only, in Zhang Ruochen’s opinion, he was even more dangerous than the Spirit King Sacred Ancestor, and if he could be eliminated, he had to be eliminated as early as possible.?
“If you want to behead the Corpse Emperor, first pass through me.”
The Spirit King Sacred Ancestor’s hands pressed towards the ground, and only clattering sounds could be heard coming out of the ground, followed by a thousand-metre-high rocky mountain that rose up from the ground and flew into mid-air, blasting towards Zhang Ruochen and Ling Fei Yu.
The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor glanced in the direction of the Blood Moon Ghost King and Princess Baili, seeing that they were hiding in a bizarre formation, and secretly pondered in his heart whether he should go and capture them, use them to hold Zhang Ruochen back, and keep dragging them out until Zhang Ruochen exhausted the power of his Sacred Match, and then come back with a counter-attack.
“This is Zhang Ruochen’s bait, deliberately trying to lure me over, once I step into the formation, I guess I won’t be able to leave even if I want to. This brat, is a bit powerful.”The Heaven’s Destiny Corpse Emperor sensed the danger and thus, didn’t go to tackle them.
“Fighting a junior, it actually ended in defeat.”
Knowing that the momentum was gone, the Heavenly Fate Corpse Emperor was quite decisive and said to the Spirit King Sacred Ancestor, “Let’s go, there’s no need to fight again. Fighting again will only make the situation more unfavourable for us.”
