“Wow–“
Han Chu’s wrist twisted, and then a wisp of dark power surged out from his palm, and vaguely, a holy sword could be seen wrapped inside the dark power.
With a flash of his body, Han Chu was like a ghost as he swept in front of Huang Yichen and swung his sword.
Huang Yichen didn’t dodge, and his pair of precious blue eyes stared at Zhang Ruochen without blinking.
Seeing that Huang Yichen was going to be killed under Han Qiu’s sword, the Cang Lan Martial Saint, who was standing on the side, had a stern look in his eyes as he grabbed the hilt of the Burning Sky Sword, dragging out a long, flaming sword light.
Cang Lan Martial Saint’s hands grabbed the hilt of the sword and violently swung the sword to slash out, colliding with the holy sword in Han Chu’s hand.
There was a bang.
It was as if a crimson fire cloud erupted from the Burning Sky Sword, striking Han Chu and sending him flying backwards.
On the other hand, a shallow blood mark appeared on Huang Yichen’s slender and snow-white neck, with a drop of blood flowing out. That was the wound caused by the sword qi released by the holy sword in Han Chu’s hand.
It could be said that if the Cang Lan Martial Saint had been even one split second slower, I’m afraid that Huang Yichen would have landed on his head.
Cang Lan Martial Saint stood in front of Huang Yichen, his sword raised in both hands, and said in a deep voice: “Zhang Ruochen, are you still the sentient Zhang Ruochen that I knew back then? Destroying the Lingxiao Heavenly King’s Mansion, destroying the Fire Clan, and climbing the Peakless Mountain, I only assume that you have anger, hatred, and conviction in your heart, even if thousands of innocent humans died because of you, I don’t bother to say those words of righteousness, anyway, there is no such thing as absolute right and wrong in this world. Live, the most important thing. The weak and the strong is the truth.”
“But, Huang Yichen is your married wife, a year ago, outside the Zi Wei Palace, if it wasn’t for her desperately protecting you, you would have all died at the hands of the Empress. Otherwise, do you think that the Empress would let you, the Crown Prince of Saint Ming, go? Do you think that the Empress would not know how many family members the old Sacred Ming Ministry had? And yet you want to kill her now, are you a man or not?”
Zhang Ruochen said indifferently, “It’s best for you to stay out of my affairs.”
“You ……”
The Cang Lan Martial Saint stared at her pair of beautiful eyes, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth.
Huang Yichen reappeared opposite Zhang Ruochen, his entire aura becoming somewhat different, his eyes becoming incomparably sharp as he said, “Sister Cang Lan, this is a grudge between me and him, so don’t meddle in it.”
Han Chu smiled grimly, “Good! That’s really good… Last time in the Green Dragon Market Realm, I lost to you, and I’ve learnt a lot from the pain. This time, I’m afraid you won’t be so lucky!”
Han Chu’s figure disintegrated and turned into a black hole with a diameter of ten feet, and then, a powerful devouring force exploded out from the interior of the black hole.
Six Demon Cult cultivators who were very close to Han Chu were pulled around the black hole by the devouring force before they could catch a glimpse of it. Miserable screams came out of their mouths as they desperately struggled to escape.
“Boom boom.”
The bodies of the six Demon Cult cultivators all burst apart and turned into pieces.
“This is the …… power of darkness …… Quickly retreat ……”
Those other cultivators were all startled and retreated into the distance, fearing that they would be pulled inside the black hole.
Among the members of the Dragon Protector Pavilion, a Confucian Saint King, threw out a holy book.
Immediately, hundreds of thousands of words flew out from the holy book, forming a field of words with a diameter of a hundred feet, enveloping Han Qiu and Huang Smoke Dust inside the field.
Obviously, the Confucian Saint King didn’t want the battle between the two to affect the cultivators outside.
The Sacred Book Talented Maiden looked at the hundreds of thousands of words suspended in the centre of the plaza, and then stared towards that Star Masked Saint King of Confucianism, revealing a thoughtful expression.
The Canglan Martial Saint retreated to the Sacred Book Talented Maiden’s side, still very annoyed, and said, “Zhang Ruochen’s change, how could it be so great?”
“Gaining something means that something will be lost. Losing something also means gaining something.”The Sacred Book Talent said.
Canglan Martial Saint said, “What are you talking about?”
“Nothing. It’s just to tell you that everyone changes, some because of circumstances, some because of time, and some because of compulsion.”The Sacred Book Talented Lady said.
“You Confucian cultivators are just pretentious, you always like to play dumb riddles, saying half and hiding half, is it interesting?”
The Canglan Martial Saint didn’t bother to continue talking with the Sacred Book Talented Lady and continued to focus on the battle within the Domain of Words, his eyes narrowing slightly as he said, “That woman beside Zhang Ruochen is so powerful, she can actually fight Huang Yichen in a battle. With such strength, she should have been as famous as the Nine Realm Sons a long time ago, why haven’t I heard of her before?”
The Sacred Book Talented Lady nodded and said, “A great Darkness Body and cultivating the Way of Darkness. In the same realm, among the Nine Great Realm Sons, only Snowless Night and Lidi can beat her. Moreover, whether it’s the Darkness Body or the Darkness Way, the higher the realm, the more powerful the burst of strength. In the future, when they reach the Saint King realm, I’m afraid that Xue Wuyi and Lidi might not be able to defeat her if they don’t have further establishments above the rules of the Saint Dao.”
In just a few moments, inside the realm of words, Han Qiu and Huang Yichen had already exchanged more than a hundred strokes, hitting the hundreds of thousands of words used to hold space in place and trembling.
A year ago, when the Nine Realm Sons and Zhang Ruochen fought, all of them were imbued with the Empress’s divine power, and at that moment, all of their cultivation levels broke through to the Thoroughfare Realm.
After a whole year of cultivation, Huang Yichen’s cultivation, not too long ago, had broken through to the Thoroughfare Realm.
Han Chu’s cultivation, on the other hand, was still stuck at the peak of the Thoroughfare Realm.
Of course, the power of a deity could only help a cultivator to reach the Thoroughfare Realm with the fastest degree. Because, from the Thoroughfare Realm onwards, the cultivation of the saints would be more about the cultivation of the rules of the Holy Dao, and even the gods would not be able to give much help.
“I’m somewhat impressed by your strength, that you can battle me for so long. It seems that you really did get a lot of benefits by defecting to the Queen.”Han Chu let out a cold smile.
The reason that Han Chu’s cultivation was so fast was because, the Darkness Way that she cultivated could devour the cultivation of other cultivators and convert it into her own power.
This was something that even Zhang Ruochen could not compare to!
Therefore, Han Qiu simply did not believe that Huang Yichen’s cultivation degree could be comparable to hers based on her own strength.
Huang Yichen was silent as he mobilised the holy qi in his body and continuously injected it into the Mixed Yuan Sword. On the body of the sword, ten thousand feet of silver light radiated out, dragging out a tens of metres long sword qi, chopping it from top to bottom.
Han Qiu didn’t take this blow hard and moved out horizontally to the left.
Even though her speed was as fast as lightning, she was still chopped down a long strand.
“Looking for death.”
Han Qiu flew up off the ground, her hands simultaneously pointing forward, “Undead ghosts and demons listen to my summons, the door to the underworld, open.”
At the tips of her fingers, there was a chain of dark rules condensed into a chain that penetrated space and connected with the netherworld.
At that instant, a deep ghostly door slowly opened.
In the ghost door, a creepy hissing sound resounded, and then, there was a corpse king wearing a tattered dragon robe that rushed out from inside.
The corpse of that Corpse King was very rotten, the bones of his face and chest were revealed, and on the bones, an icy cold aura of death escaped.
“A great Darkness Body is really powerful, it can actually summon a Corpse King from the netherworld, from the netherworld.”
“The battle power of that Corpse King is enough to call it a day with a Saint of the Tong Tian realm.”
“Huang Yichen is not an ordinary Tong Tian realm cultivator, with her strength, in the same realm, she can completely fight a group of people by herself. A Passing Heaven realm Corpse King is simply no match for her.”
……
The corner of Han Chu’s mouth hooked slightly as he mobilised more dark rules and injected them into the Ghost Gate.
Immediately, another series of four Corpse Kings and five Ghost Kings rushed out from the Ghost Gate.
In this way, it was five Corpse Kings and five Ghost Kings, and the strength of each of them was comparable to a Tong Tian realm cultivator. It was equivalent to ten Heavenly Realm cultivators attacking Huang Yichen at the same time.
Seeing this scene, all the cultivators shook their heads, in the same realm, ten against one, it was simply crushing, Huang Yichen was bound to lose.
Sacred Book Talented Lady also held her breath, staring tightly at the battle within the realm of words, seeing that Huang Yichen was actually able to sustain himself under the siege of five Corpse Kings and five Ghost Kings, she was only slightly relieved.
The Sacred Book Talented Lady asked, “A year ago, when the Chaos Army Lord and the Ministry of War organised the War God’s Ring, how many times was Ten Thousand Trillions able to fight one against the other in the same realm?”
“Nineteen.”
“And you?”The Sacred Book Talent added.
The Canglan Martial Saint was silent for a moment and said, “Nine.”
After a pause, the Canglan Martial Saint added: “The War God Ring has great limitations, my degree advantage is simply wielded out, if it were on a vast battlefield, nine cultivators of the same realm would simply not be enough for me to kill.”
The Sacred Book Talent Maiden laughed and said, “If it were on a vast battlefield, with trillions and trillions of battle experience, it would be more than just fighting nineteen. However, a true life and death battle has far too many variables than in the ring. In case the enemy Saint is prepared to self-destruct his Saint Origin at the very beginning, then even Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t be able to fight nineteen of them at the same realm.”
The Canglan Martial Saint said, “You think Zhang Ruochen is even more powerful than that fanatic of my brother? Do you even know what the concept of fighting nineteen True Saints at the same time with the power of one person is? I was already convinced by that shocking image at that time anyway. Besides, the one ranked second in the Ministry of War is also a supreme wizard, having reached the Supreme Extreme Realm more than once in the Martial Dao’s fourth realm, as well as possessing an invincible system, and yet, he merely fought twelve of them. Moreover, the higher the realm, the harder it is to fight one against many.”
The Sacred Book Talent Maiden did not argue with the Canglan Martial Saint, but merely said with a smile, “Wan Zhaoyi was able to fight against nineteen True Saints at the same time at the True Saint realm, which is indeed quite impressive. In his time, he was already invincible.”
Inside the realm of words, Huang Yichen supported himself for a quarter of an hour under the siege of five Ghost Kings and five Corpse Kings, although he did not lose, however, his body was left with more than a dozen blood traces, and he was extremely injured, as if he would be killed at any time.
“Return to One Sword Technique.”
Huang Yichen clenched her teeth, grabbing the sword hilt with her bloody hands, the holy qi in her body was continuously injected into the Mixed Yuan Sword, and instantly, on the body of the sword, a vast and destructive sword qi was released.
With this sword, it drained all the holy qi in her body.
Winning or losing depended on this sword.
