Huang Yichen swung out his sword, an eye-catching sword qi that flew out at an extremely fast speed, cutting the three Corpse Kings and the two Ghost Kings in two and tearing open an opening.
Huang Yichun rushed out, stabbing his sword at Han Chu’s brow.
At this moment, Han Chu’s entire strength was in controlling the Corpse Kings and Ghost Kings, and it seemed that he was simply unable to avoid Huang Smoke Dust’s sword.
However, looking at the sword light that was getting closer and closer, Han Chu smiled wryly.
“Swish.”
From Han Chu’s body, a dark shadow that looked exactly like her flew out, took a step forward, and struck Huang Yichen’s chest with a palm.
Huang Yichen trembled, spat blood from his mouth, and flew backwards like a kite with broken strings.
The dark shadow flew back into Han Chu’s body.
Han Chu was no longer in control of the Corpse King and the Ghost King, and rushed to Huang Yichen’s body with the Holy Sword, and with a wave of the long sword, the blade of the sword was pressed against Huang Yichen’s neck, and he sneered, “The power of my darkness doppelganger isn’t that much worse than that of the main body, is it?”
Huang Yichen stood in the square, his body dripping blood, closing his eyes, saying, “Kill if you want to, why so much nonsense?”
Han Qiu’s eyes lifted and smiled somewhat smugly at Zhang Ruochen, saying, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, or do you say, to kill or not to kill?”
At the top of Sacred Wood Peak, a pair of eyes stared towards Zhang Ruochen.
At this moment, even the Heavenly Kings in the court didn’t dare to take action easily. Because, in case the rescue failed, Huang Yichen would definitely be killed by Han Qiu, and no one could afford the responsibility.
It could be said that Huang Yichen’s life was now in Zhang Ruochen’s hands alone.
Mu Lingshi grabbed Zhang Ruochen’s wrist and stopped in front of Zhang Ruochen, shaking her head vigorously, saying, “Don’t, don’t kill Sister Dusty.”
Mu Lingshi was worried that Zhang Ruochen would regret it in the future, if a person regretted it, it must be as bad as death with a broken liver. She was unwilling to see Zhang Ruochen do something he could not regret.
“Kill what, kill what, do you still have this Emperor in your eyes? Who dares to move his sword to kill when this Emperor hasn’t even spoken?”
A cat-headed undead bird, squeezed out from the crowd.
Its body was very fat and round, spreading out a pair of feathered wings and twisting its huge buttocks, it walked towards Han Chu and Huang Yichen in an imposing manner.
The cat-headed undead bird stared at Han Chu with a pair of wide cat eyes and yelled, “Can’t you understand the words of this king? Hurry up and put your sword down, believe it or not, this emperor will beat you to tears.”
As he spoke, the cat-headed immortal bird stretched out a feathered wing and knocked the sword in Han Chu’s hand to the side.
Han Qiu originally wanted to take advantage of this perfect opportunity today to get rid of Huang Yichen in one fell swoop, so that Zhang Ruochen would be completely disillusioned. However, he didn’t expect that a monster that wasn’t a cat or a bird would be killed halfway.
“Where did the owl come from, how dare you meddle in my affairs, do you not want to live?”
In Han Chu’s eyes, a strong murderous aura surged out as he swung his holy sword, dragging out a sword aura and slashing at the cat-headed undead bird’s head.
“Boom.”
This sword did not injure a single feather of the cat-headed undead bird, instead, a large spark emerged.
Han Qiu only felt his arm go numb from the shock, and hastily withdrew his holy sword, staring at the cat-headed undead bird once again, his eyes becoming somewhat suspicious.
The cat-headed undead bird was quite dejected and let out a laugh, “This emperor is standing right here, can you hurt a single hair of this emperor?”
“Hmph!”
Han Chu mobilised the power of darkness, having dozens of black, extremely evil powers that surged out from his brow and converged into his left arm, followed by a palm strike on the cat-headed undead bird’s abdomen.
The power of darkness had many attributes, it could devour, corrode, and represented death.
However, Han Qiu’s palm, which had just imprinted on the cat-headed undead bird’s abdomen, realised that the feathers of the cat-headed undead bird’s abdomen had unexpectedly sprouted a flame and turned into a fire feather.
Even the power of darkness was unable to invade its body.
The cat-headed undead bird trembled a bit, shocking Han Chu backward, and then, laughed out loud, “This emperor is invincible, just by you, you want to hurt this emperor?”
Those surrounding cultivators, too, all tsked in wonder, feeling incredulous.
Huang Yichen stared suspiciously at the cat-headed undead bird standing in front of her, always feeling that it was somewhat familiar, its speech and behaviour, all too similar to Little Black.
However, the aura on it and Little Black was completely different.
Moreover, one was a cat and the other was an owl.
In Huang Yichen’s mind, Little Black’s voice resounded, ”Today, Zhang Ruochen is clearly vowing not to stop until he kills Qiu Yu. Those other people don’t dare to come out and speak, you actually came out to protect Qiu Yu, are you stupid or not?”
Huang Yichen could finally be certain that this cat-headed immortal bird in front of her was Little Black.
She said, “Before the Empress left, she explained that Qiu Yu is the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Root of the Kunlun Realm, and the future hope of the Kunlun Realm. If Zhang Ruochen kills him and the Empress returns, Zhang Ruochen will die for sure, I simply have no choice.”
“Forget it, this matter, you should leave it alone, this Emperor will solve it.”
Little Black’s voice once again resounded in Huang Yichen’s mind.
With that, Little Black’s gaze, stared over towards Autumn Rain, saying, “That tree, come here, come here.”
Qiu Yu’s eyes were cold, ignoring Xiao Hei, instead, he fixed his gaze towards Huang Yichen, saying, “Lord Boundary Son, don’t think that I don’t know that you have lingering feelings for Zhang Ruochen, and yesterday, it was you who ordered that the imperial court’s cultivators should not make any moves to deal with the Sacred Brightness rebels, or else the Sacred Brightness rebels wouldn’t have been so arrogant as to go so far. This gongzi has to remind you one thing, don’t forget the oracle that the Empress left behind when she left. You should know better than anyone what happens when you defy the gods.”
Xiao Hei unfolded a pair of feathered wings and pounced towards Qiu Yu in a windy manner, as if he was a black goose with a cat’s head, calling out, “How dare you ignore this Emperor, this Emperor can’t beat you to death.”
Autumn Rain revealed a disdainful look, his body swayed, and with a degree faster than a Supreme Saint, he easily avoided Little Black’s pounce.
Instead of pouncing on Autumn Rain, Little Black pounced on a Fire Race Saint Ancestor behind Autumn Rain.
“Boom boom.”
That Fire Race Saint Ancestor struck seventeen hand seals in a row, striking Little Black’s chest. In the next moment, Little Black flew out backwards like a cannonball, crashing into the Golden Step Dragon Chariot.
Just as Xiao Hei flew out, Zhang Ruochen lifted the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and performed a Spatial Shift, disappearing beside Mu Lingshi.
In the next moment, Zhang Ruochen appeared above Autumn Rain’s head, cupping the sword with both hands and slashing down.
Even if Qiu Yu’s speed was fast, it could not be faster than Spatial Shift, and in the face of Zhang Ruochen’s sword, there was no way for him to dodge.
“Boom.”
Zhang Ruochen’s sword chopped down and collided with both of Autumn Rain’s arms, exploding an incomparably powerful force that pressed the stone slabs in the square to continuously shatter and sink downwards.
Qiu Yu’s arms and hands, wearing two arm guards and two gloves, actually blocked the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword.
The Cang Lan Martial Saint was a little surprised and said, “Fire God Armour.”
The Sacred Book Talented Lady was also a bit surprised, saying, “It is indeed the Vulcan Armour, however, it is not the complete Vulcan Armour, only the arm guards and gloves.”
“Back then, I asked the Empress to reward me with a Fire God Armguard, and she didn’t even agree.”The Canglan Martial Saint said.
The Sacred Book Talented Maiden laughed, “Qiu Yu is the body of a True God, the spiritual root of heaven and earth, the future hope of the Kunlun Realm, the Empress definitely values him differently.”
The Canglan Martial Saint was a bit displeased and said, “So what if he’s a True God’s Body? His cultivation level, which was even higher than Zhang Ruochen’s by a large margin, and with the addition of the Fire God Armour, yet he was still suppressed by Zhang Ruochen. If it wasn’t for the fact that the Kunlun Realm only had such a divine tree sapling as him, with his state of mind, would he have been able to gain the attention of the Empress?”
The Sacred Book Talented Maiden said, “You have underestimated Qiu Yu too much, just his True God Physique, in the same realm, is a bit more powerful than Xue Wuyi and Lidi. His state of mind is indeed hard, otherwise ……”
“Or else what?”Cang Lan Martial Saint asked.
“Nothing.”The Sacred Book Talented Lady smiled faintly.
In the last half a month, Zhang Ruochen had refined some of the Dan Qi from the Spirit Punching Pill, and his cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Thorough Earth Realm.
Qiu Yu’s cultivation, on the other hand, was at the peak of the Earth Thoroughfare Realm.
“Didn’t you claim to be the best in the world in the same realm?”
Zhang Ruochen suppressed Autumn Rain and asked in a cold voice.
Qiu Yu was half-kneeling on the ground, unable to move by the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword above him, and could only support himself bitterly, unable to even utter a single word at all.
Zhang Ruochen was still able to speak while suppressing him, thus showing that he had not used his full strength yet.
Zhang Ruochen’s stance changed as he slapped his sword horizontally, hitting Qiu Yu’s head.
“Boom.”
Instantly, Autumn Rain’s skull cracked and his head collapsed in half as his body tilted and flew backwards.
As Qiu Yu flew in mid-air, Zhang Ruochen slashed his sword again, striking him at his waist and abdomen, the sword body sinking into his body as blood continued to gush outwards.
“Boom.”
Qiu Yu’s body, fell heavily to the ground, smashing the earth to collapse.
However, the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword failed to sever Qiu Yu’s body in two; Qiu Yu’s spine, which was incomparably hard, seemed to be unable to be severed at all.
Zhang Ruochen instantly understood that Autumn Rain’s spine was the trunk of the Wutong Divine Tree.
Without severing the trunk, the Wutong Divine Tree would not die.
At this moment, most of Autumn Rain’s body had turned into wood, and he was being pressed to the ground by the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, unable to move his body in an indescribably miserable manner.
The two Saint Ancestors of the Fire Race wanted to go forward to rescue Qiu Yu, but they were suppressed by Ling Xiu using his spiritual power.
“Isn’t the True God’s Body a legendary supreme system? Claimed to be invincible in the same realm? Why is it that they are both at the Thorough Earth Realm, and Qiu Yu only blocked Zhang Ruochen’s three moves?”
“Where did she block three moves, it’s clear that she was powerless to fight back.”
“From the moment he struck, Zhang Ruochen suppressed Autumn Rain, and, moreover, did so with ease.”
……
Autumn Rain’s heart was incomparably humiliated and annoyed, and he only wanted to find a crack in the ground to drill into, as a Wutong Divine Tree, he was first robbed of his fiancée by Zhang Ruochen, and then he was defeated by Zhang Ruochen within a few moves.
Suffering such humiliation, in the future, I don’t know how many people would mock him in secret.
Knowing that he couldn’t kill Qiu Yu using the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, Zhang Ruochen withdrew the sword and, like lifting a dead dog, grabbed Qiu Yu by the collar and casually threw him into the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron.
Zhang Ruochen stuck the bloody Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword on the ground and said in a cold voice, “With the Sycamore Divine Tree, sacrifice to Heaven and Earth.”
