The Nine Spirits Great Sage glanced towards the Barbarian Sword Great Sage and said, “Bu Ji has actually refined the remnant soul of the Golden Lion Great Sage, completely into a Great Sage Battle Soul of his own. With his current cultivation, I’m afraid he doesn’t have such an ability, right?”
“It was me who stepped in and helped him.”The Barbarian Sword Great Saint said.
The Nine Spirits Great Saint nodded, revealing a look that said, “That makes sense.”
The Barbarian Sword Great Sage added, “However, this brat, actually being able to withstand the power of a Great Sage’s residual soul, does impress me somewhat. He is also considered to have stood out from my many disciples, so he can be cultivated vigorously in the future.”
Su Qingling’s pair of soulful eyes stared at Zhang Ruochen’s body as she said, “Look guys, the eyes of that Supreme Perfection Physique have finally become a bit serious. I wonder if Buji can test his depths this time?”
……
…………
“Dragon Image Prajna.”
Zhang Ruochen’s arms lifted up, and the bones in his body made a series of popping sounds, and then, there was a dragon shadow and an elephant shadow that presented themselves on the left and right sides, like two hideous and angry flood beasts, and they greeted Bu Ji.
“Boom.”?The double palms and claws collided together, exploding with a stone-shattering sound.
The ferocious power of the Saint Dao spread outwards, causing the outside of the Heavenly Cavern to fly sand and form a giant wave of Saint Qi.
The Saint level Dragon Soul and Elephant Soul were obviously no match for the Great Saint level Golden Lion Battle Spirit, and the moment they touched, the Golden Lion Battle Spirit let out a loud roar, shattering the Dragon Shadow and Elephant Shadow.
Zhang Ruochen did not retreat, and the Saint Qi in his body, which flowed crazily in his meridians and Saint veins, condensed into an even more powerful palm force that exploded out.
“Rumble.”
Bu Ji was like a human-sized cannonball, flying backwards in a straight line, his back hitting the top of the wall of a holy temple, causing the defensive formations in the temple to be revealed.
His body, sliding down from the top of the wall, landed back on the ground, only feeling like the bones in his entire body were about to fall apart.
“How can it be so strong? How is it possible? I possess the remnant soul of the Golden Lion Great Sage, while your two beast souls are only at the Saint level, how could I still lose to you?”
Bu Ji clenched his fists and clenched his teeth, very unwilling.
Bu Ji’s physical strength was quite powerful, and, with the added benefit of the Great Saint Battle Soul, he was not afraid of any opponent in the same realm.
However, with his cultivation at the peak of the Tong Tian Realm, he had fought against a Saint at the early stage of the Tong Tian Realm, but it ended in a miserable defeat.
This blow was simply too great for him.
Zhang Ruochen said, “The Great Saint Battle Soul is indeed quite powerful, far from the Dragon Soul and Elephant Soul in my body. However, a battle soul is always only a supplementary role, and being powerful in oneself is truly powerful. You have already lost three matches, you should give me thirty drops of Condensed Truth Holy Dew.”
Bu Ji’s face reddened, clenched his teeth and said, “I’m not willing to fight one last time, I’ll suppress my cultivation to the early stage of True Saint. If you are able to block my full force strike without falling, all of the Condensed True Sacred Dew in the treasure bottle will be yours. How?”
“Hehe, shameless.”
An extremely pleasant laughter rang out.
Only to see, a cyan-coloured silhouette, along with the laughter, appeared outside of the Tongtian Cave Sky with an incredibly fast degree.
Su Qingling, dressed in a green outfit as if she was a tranquil orchid in an empty valley, stood in the position between Buji and Zhang Ruochen and laughed, “What’s the point of suppressing it to the early stage of True Sainthood? It would be better to just use your strongest power of the mid True Saint stage.”
Bu Ji’s face turned redder as he said, “We are sparring in a fair and just manner.”
Su Qingling rolled her eyes and said, “How can you call it fair and just when you’ve already used your True Saint level power? The span between True Saint and Tong Tian Realm is comparable to the span of two great realms of the Holy Dao. You actually let a Saint at the early TongTian Realm, block your blow, do you still want to be shameless?”
Bu Ji cried out and said, “Qing Ling, how can you speak for an outsider?”
Su Qingling smiled with red lips and white teeth, “Firstly, we are all cultivators of the Guanghan Realm, that is, family, who is not an outsider?”
“Secondly, I’m not speaking for anyone either, I’m just telling a fact.”?Buji dispersed the holy power on his body and said, “Since you won’t let me make a move, then I won’t make a move. Anyway, losing to a Supreme Perfection Physique is not something to be ashamed of.”
Zhang Ruochen had been observing Su Qingling the entire time, this woman’s degree was incredibly fast, she was definitely a first-rate powerhouse, and her strength was feared to be above that of Buji.
The Broad Cold Realm, worthy of being a great world, was also full of talents, just the strength of these two in front of them, I’m afraid that they would be able to compete with those on the Heroic Fugue.
Su Qingling’s gaze, fixed on Zhang Ruochen’s body, smiled and said, “I am Su Qingling of the Nine Spirits Clan, more guidance in the future.”
Bu Ji’s hands clasped his fists as he said to Zhang Ruochen, “I am the twenty-seventh disciple of the Barbarian Sword Great Sage, Bu Ji, please bear with me, brother, for the many offences I have committed just now. Since, I lost three matches, I will now give you the thirty drops of Condensed Truth Sacred Dew and will never go back on my word.”
“There’s no rush.”?Zhang Ruochen’s demeanour was calm as he said, “You don’t have to suppress your cultivation, go all out, I’ll take your strike and try it out.”
Both Buji and Su Qingling were slightly stunned.
Su Qingling’s eyes, staring towards the precious bottle in Bu Ji’s hand, quickly understood that this person wanted all the Condensed Truth Sacred Dew.
“Haha!”
Bu Ji laughed out loud and said, “Qing Ling, you can’t blame me for this now, it was he who took the initiative to receive a blow from me.”
Su Qingling wrinkled her two willow leaf eyebrows, she really couldn’t see through Zhang Ruochen, could it be that when he fought with Bu Ji just now, he still had reservations?
In the end, Su Qingling couldn’t help but remind, “The span between the True Realm and the Heavenly Realm is quite huge, you must think clearly, in the event that Bu Poles didn’t control his power, you will most likely be seriously injured. It’s just a sparring match, there’s no need to make such a big deal out of it.”
“No harm done.”Zhang Ruochen said.
When Su Qingling looked at Zhang Ruochen’s ancient and unperturbed eyes, her heart just lightly jumped.
Because, that look in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, she had only seen it on her grandfather, the Nine Spirits Great Sage.
That look was incomparably calm and full of confidence, as if he had experienced thousands of lives and deaths, a hundred frustrations, and had seen through the world’s human affairs, and in the end, no longer produced any waves.
His state of mind was already no weaker than those Great Saints who had cultivated for thousands of years.
Bu Ji did not use his strongest power, but rather suppressed his cultivation at the early stage of True Sainthood, even so, after stirring up the Great Sage Battle Spirit once again, the fluctuation of power in his body climbed several levels.
The entire heaven and earth seemed to be transformed into a huge vortex, and the golden giant lion was located at the centre of the vortex, just like a heaven swallowing and earth devouring flood monster.
“Be careful, this strike of mine is not something that can be caught so easily.”
Buji’s length flew up, and his entire body’s muscles bulged as he and the Great Sage Battle Spirit simultaneously lunged forwards, and the residual power of the Golden Lion Great Sage was also bursting out crazily at this moment.
At this moment, Zhang Ruochen also had to go all out.
From inside his spatial ring, he took out the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, his hands tightly grasping the hilt of the sword, having a large amount of Saint Qi surging into the body of the sword.
“Wow…”
A Thousand Lines of Destructive Power exploded out from the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword.
Zhang Ruochen’s right foot stepped forwards, using the Sword Dao Intent of Sword 7, swinging his sword out diagonally, colliding with the Golden Lion Battle Spirit.
“Boom.”
Sword Qi and Beast Emperor’s residual power surged out in all directions.
In the next moment, Zhang Ruochen and Buji simultaneously fell backwards, the two of them pulling apart by a full hundred feet.
“Surprisingly …… indistinguishable.”
Su Qingling felt incredulous, even if the Supreme Perfection Physique was no longer strong, it wasn’t so strong that it was so perverse, right?
Bu Ji was also a bit dumbfounded, looking at his own hands and then at Zhang Ruochen who was standing opposite him, in the end, revealing a bitter smile, “Convinced, must not be convinced, the Supreme Perfection Physique is indeed invincible.”
Su Qingling suppressed the shock in her heart and walked towards Zhang Ruochen, carrying a pair of small hands behind her back as she carefully sized him up with a pair of holy eyes, saying, “So you also cultivate the Sword Dao. Seeing the sword intent you mobilised just now, you should be cultivating the sword Dao of the Dao Family lineage. Right?”
“The Taoist lineage?”
Zhang Ruochen’s mouth pronounced these words.
The Wordless Sword Spectrum was the supreme sacred scripture of Taiji Dao, which had been stored in the Sword Pavilion from the very beginning of the founding of Taiji Dao, and had a history of at least ten million years, making it arguably the oldest Sword Spectrum of all.
The history of the Celestial Court Realm was only about 100,000 years old.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t know if it was the Wordless Sword Spectrum that had spread to the Heavenly Court Realm 100,000 years ago, or if the Daoist lineage’s Sword Dao was similar to the Wordless Sword Spectrum. Thus, there was no way to answer Su Qingling.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “What does the Taoist lineage mean?”
“It seems like you just came to the Heavenly Court Realm, so you don’t know anything.”
Su Qingling shook her head, then, said, “In the Heavenly Court Realm, there are more than 8,000 great worlds gathered, and each great world is a power. However, there are other forces that are independent of the major worlds. The Taoist lineage, is one of them.”
“The power of the Taoist lineage is quite huge, especially the first sacred place of the Taoist family, the Five Elements View, which gathers strong Taoist sect members from all the major worlds, and is the best place for Taoist sect cultivators to talk about the Dao and exchange cultivation tips.”
Bu Ji walked over and stared at the spatial ring on Zhang Ruochen’s finger, earlier, he perceived that Zhang Ruochen had taken out the battle sword from within this jade ring, it was obvious that it was a spatial storage treasure.
“This spatial treasure of yours, was it rewarded to you by the Moon God? I also have a spatial treasure, however, it’s just a storage bag with a very small inner space. This ring of yours, which is quite delicately refined, should have a large inner space, right?”
Bu Ji stared at Zhang Ruochen’s spatial ring while pulling out a beast skin storage pouch.
Zhang Ruochen’s palm, with a quick grab forward, pinched out the beast skin storage pouch, releasing his spiritual energy to probe.
A moment later, Zhang Ruochen released his palm and gently shook his head. The method of using spatial inscriptions and the refining techniques of that beast skin storage bag were completely different from what was recorded in the Time and Space Mysteries.
Moreover, it was too low-grade.
Obviously, the one who refined the beast skin storage bag did not belong to the same vein as him.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “In the Celestial Court Realm, are there many cultivators who cultivate the Spatial Way?”
