Zhang Ruochen revealed a puzzled expression, somewhat puzzled as to how the Rakshasa Clan’s Marquis army was delayed in striking.
With the Spatial Maze Formation, Zhang Ruochen was very confident in blocking the first wave of the Rakshasa Clan’s attack, and, moreover, was able to use the Spatial Reversal to heavily damage them.
“The Rakshasa Clan is surprisingly so cautious, could it have already seen through my arrangement?”Zhang Ruochen said to himself.
A black line sprouted from the Rakshasa Princess’s forehead, really wanting to chop off the Sacred Arrow Marquis’s head, the thing that could not accomplish anything.
How on earth did such a guy with a reckless character become a First Class Marquis?
Princess Rakshasa was a little worried that Zhang Ruochen would become suspicious again, thus, she immediately sent out a spiritual force to tell Marquis Saint Arrow and Marquis Yan Lin the coordinates of the Blade Prison Realm, Violet Mansion Realm, and Kunlun Realm, the three major worlds where the Saints were hiding.
Receiving Her Highness’s instructions, the Sacred Arrow Marquis was like an amnesty, finally knowing what to do, drenched in battle spirit, he turned in the right direction and roared, “What kind of curmudgeon dares to hide his head in front of this Marquis, I’ll clean up after you first.”
“Boom!”
A thunder-like popping sound came out from the Golden-backed Dragon Bone Bow, followed by a Broken Golden Arrow flying out.
The wall of the concealment formation was shot through, and instantly, all of the Saints from the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm were exposed, more than a hundred of them, all of them at least as strong as those at the True Saint realm.
“Boom.”
Fang Yi held up the Heavenly Chance Compass, forming a circle of rippling seals to ward off this arrow from the Sacred Arrow Marquis.
“Sure enough, it was discovered, and the Rakshasa Clan’s vigilance is too high.”
Fully thousands of Marquises had gathered on the eastern side of the Sacred Mountain, and the force was so vast that even though the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm were both top-notch powerhouses, they were all quite fearful.
The Divine Envoy of the Blade and Prison Realm, Blood Wind Spirit, issued an order, “Call forth all Ten Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifacts and form a formation to defend against the Rakshasa Clan’s attack.”
With that, a total of eight Ten Thousand Lines Sacred Artifacts rose into the air, and densely-packed inscriptions emerged as if they had transformed into eight rounds of radiant blazing suns, radiating eight strands of shocking holy might.
In the camp of the Marquis of Rakshasa’s army, there were thousands of attacking forces that blasted over, colliding with the eight Ten Thousand Ripple Saint Weapons.
“Rumble.”
In an instant, that area was transformed into a sea of flames of holy power chaos.
The Sacred Arrow Marquis shot out another Breaking Golden Arrow, striking at another region, forcing all the Saints of the Kunlun Realm to reveal themselves as well.
The number of Saints in the Kunlun Realm was relatively small, only tens of them.
Wan Zhaoyi stayed on the battlefield for many years, leading the army to fight against all the major races, and was experienced enough to deal with sudden situations, immediately ordering, “Spirituality Saints immediately set up defensive formations, Martial Dao Saints activate Ten Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifacts, Saints without Ten Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifacts activate Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifacts, and launch an attack on the Rakshasa Marquises’ army.”
Chu Siyuan, the Sacred Book Talented Maiden, and the Divine Goddess of Divine Destiny, along with the other six Spiritual Power Saints, stood at the very centre of the room, protected by the Martial Dao Saints.
In the palm of the Sacred Book Talented Maiden’s hand, a jade tome emerged.
“Everyone, together, inject spiritual power to invoke the sacred power of the Ru Zu Sacred Book.”
As, the nine Spiritual Power Saints injected their spiritual power into it, the Ru Ancestor Sacred Book flew up and levitated to a position a hundred feet above the ground. White holy light radiated out from the Ru Ancestor Holy Book, actually purifying the Evil Shakti Qi in the heavens and earth.
The pages of the book slowly opened and flew out one by one radiant words, turning into a sea of words, some sticking to the ground, some flying above the nine heavens, and with a holy sound pouring out, like billions of scholars reciting poetry.
The power of the thousand or so attacks struck by the Marquis of Rakshasa was actually resisted by the Ru Zu Sacred Book.
The Rakshasa Princess stared at the Ru Ancestor Sacred Book hanging in mid-air, revealing a very interested expression, “What a powerful book, it actually blocked the attacks of more than a thousand Rakshasa Marquises, what level of treasure is it?”
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze was fixed on the direction of the Kunlun Realm Saints.
Only to see that the nine Spiritual Power Saints, with Chu Siyuan as their leader, were all pale, and a few of them were even spitting blood from their mouths, their bodies shaking, clearly having a hard time withstanding the second wave of attacks from the Rakshasa Clan.
The Ru Zu Sacred Book was indeed powerful, and Chu Siyuan was also the top amongst the Spiritual Power Saints, but it was still too difficult to fight against over a thousand Rakshasa Marquises with nine Saints.
More than a thousand Rakshasa Marquises could already surround and kill Saint Kings.
Wan Zhaobian saw the situation clearly, and with a passive defence, the Kunlun Realm would only be completely wiped out.
“Chen Wutian, Nine Spectres Sword Saint, join me in killing over there and first break up the camp of the Rakshasa Marquis.”
Inside Wan Zhaoyi’s body, ten thousand feet of holy aura surged out, and the Green Dragon Sacred Armour on his body resounded with a dragon’s roar, followed by a dozens of feet long green dragon silhouette coiling around his body.
Chen Wutian and the Nine Spectres Sword Saint also both exploded with their strongest power, and together with Ten Thousand Trillion, they killed towards the Marquis of Rakshasa’s army.
One had to know that the number of Rakshasa Marquises, which numbered in the thousands, dispersed an aura that was quite powerful, and it took tremendous courage to dare to rise up against them.
Fang Yi, the Blood Wind Spirit, the East Stream Sword Sovereign, and the two half-step Saint Kings also rushed out of the sea of fire and attacked the Marquis of Rakshasa’s army from another direction.
Unable to catch up with the defence, the Rakshasa Marquises were killed down in a large swathe, with dozens of Marquises being beaten to ashes, and many more Marquises, suffering heavy injuries.
Seeing this scene, the Rakshasa Princess was infuriated, ”A bunch of idiots! Facing the top tier Saint realm powerhouses of the three worlds, they didn’t even know to form a formation to fight against each other.”
Although the Rakshasa Princess was standing beside Zhang Ruochen, seemingly watching the battle, in reality, she was releasing her spiritual power and giving out a command, manipulating the battlefield.
However, her spiritual power was so strong that it had already reached the Saint King realm, and there were no cultivators present to notice this.
The Marquis of Rakshasa’s army, immediately formed thirty-six Nine Nine Returns to One Great Formations, neatly aligned at the periphery, forming a huge circle that slowly rotated, crushing towards Wan Zhaoyi and the Nine Spectres Sword Saint and the others.
The Nine Nine Returning to One Grand Formation was a combination of the power of eighty-one Rakshasa Marquises, combining them together, and whether it was the attacking power that exploded out, or the defensive power, it was quite terrifying.
If it was a single Nine Nine Returns to One Grand Formation, it would naturally be nothing to someone as strong as Ten Thousand Trillion and the Nine Spectres Sword Saint. However, the power that exploded from the thirty-six Nine Nine Returns to One Grand Formations combined together was quite frightening.
Inside the thirty-six Nine Nine Great Formations, there stood more than a thousand Rakshasa Women, all of whom were Spiritual Saints, constantly striking out a Sacred Law, attacking from a long distance, suppressing the other Saints of the Kunlun Realm, the Sword Prison Realm, and the Violet Mansion Realm.
Zhang Ruochen’s finger stroked his chin and said, ”Among the Rakshasa Marquises, there is a formidable figure who is definitely an expert in arranging troops and formations. The top Saint realm powerhouses of the three worlds were surprisingly suppressed. Continuing the confrontation, the saints of the three worlds will probably suffer heavy losses.”
The Rakshasa Princess gave a charming smile and said, “Isn’t it a good thing for the Broad Cold Realm if they suffer heavy losses?”
“When the Marquis of Rakshasa’s army has cleaned them up, it will be time to deal with us.”Zhang Ruochen said.
The Rakshasa Princess nodded and said, “The Marquis of Rakshasa’s army is huge, it’s not something we can fight against, so it’s a good time to take this opportunity to evacuate this place, so we can avoid a head-on conflict with them.”
Zhang Ruochen was not an arrogant person, naturally, he would not think that he possessed the strength to fight against thousands of Rakshasa Marquises, and with a solemn expression, he said, “Let’s wait for a little longer, the Realmchildren of the Three Great Worlds, who are unlikely to sit back and wait for death, will surely have a next move. Wouldn’t it be more favourable for us to let them fight to the death?”
Zhang Ruochen’s words had reminded Princess Rakshasa, making her realise that the Three Great Worlds would surely have a backstroke, and she had to make preparations in advance as well.
Zhang Ruochen detected a pair of burning gazes, so he turned his head and looked over, just in time to meet the Canglan Martial Saint’s four eyes.
The Canglan Martial Saint’s pair of beautiful eyes were wide open, with flames bubbling in her pupils, in a very angry manner. When she saw Zhang Ruochen looking at her, she didn’t retract her gaze, and anyway, her lips moved and uttered two words.
From the shape of her mouth, Zhang Ruochen recognised that the Canglan Martial Saint had said “traitor”.
Zhang Ruochen was a bit disdainful, unwilling to accept the identity of “traitor”. It wasn’t that he wanted to leave the Kunlun Realm, but he was forced to do so.
Fighting for the Guanghan Realm was a traitor to the Kunlun Realm?
In the beginning, the Moon God even helped the Kunlun Realm fight against the Hell Realm’s invasion, so what is this?
“Kunlun doesn’t keep people, it has its own place to keep people.”
Zhang Ruochen’s lips moved as he returned.
The Canglan Martial Saint was so angry that she kept grinding her teeth, if it wasn’t for the ferocious attacks of the Rakshasa Clan, she really wanted to kill out of the camp and go and teach Zhang Ruochen a lesson first.
When Chu Siyuan saw Zhang Ruochen, he was also blowing his moustache and glaring, quite furious.
In his opinion, Zhang Ruochen had ended up on an evil path, and instead of becoming a hero who saved the world and the people, he had become a public enemy of the Kunlun Realm.
If, however, Zhang Ruochen really thought about the lives of the Kunlun Realm, he should have compromised with the Empress.
With the Empress’ status and temperament, how could she continue to make things difficult for him?
It wasn’t like it was anything to be ashamed of to bow down, give in, and admit fault to a god.
However, Zhang Ruochen had refused to do so, and in the end, became a traitor to the Kunlun Realm.
Facing Chu Siyuan’s eyes, Zhang Ruochen still didn’t have any emotional fluctuations, in his opinion, Chu Siyuan did have something praiseworthy about him, being upright and cynical.
However, it was also an old codger with a corrupt mindset, and what he considered to be the right path and truth, Zhang Ruochen did not dare to agree with.
“Boom.”
The five Nine-Nine Great Formations each activated a Ten Thousand Stripes Saint Artifact level battle weapon, bursting out with consummate power, shattering one of the protective talismans on Chen Wutian’s body and sending him flying out sideways, suffering extremely serious injuries.
At the same time, the two half-step Saint Kings from the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm also suffered heavy injuries and narrowly escaped death.
The remaining few were indeed quite powerful, yet they were never able to break through the 36 Nine Nine Great Formations, and were completely suppressed, perilously close to death, constantly falling backwards.
Obviously, their plan of trying to overrun the Rakshasa Marquis’ army camp had failed.
Noticing this, the Sacred Book Talented Maiden hurriedly burned a light talisman and punched it out, sending a message to the Kunlun Realm Saints hiding outside the ninety-nine sacred mountains, telling them to immediately rush over to assist.
Subsequently, the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm also typed out light talismans to dispatch the armies of Saints from the two realms.
