After the Nine Great Xuan Maidens united, her entire body was scattered with a rain of light, bursting out with a power that was more powerful than an average Saint King.
Ling Quan Shaojun was quite surprised, having never encountered such a bizarre thing, nor had he ever encountered such a powerful opponent, who had repelled him, who possessed the Supreme Perfection Physique, with just a single strike.
On the opposite side of him, the body of the Nine Heavens Xuan Nü was as if it had been forged from immortal jade, crystal clear, radiating an enchanting fragrance, possessing a peerless face, the most perfect and delicate body, and the temperament of her body was even more unpredictable, sometimes gentle, sometimes domineering, sometimes soft, sometimes mysterious ……
She was like a true Goddess, with a total of nine skies appearing above her head, each of which was intertwined with a large number of Sacred Dao rules, quite divine.
Even Zhang Ruochen felt quite surprised and couldn’t help but look over towards the Nine Heavenly Maiden.
“No wonder Qing Mo was able to sense their location, and was even able to sense their aura weakening, so it turns out that …… there really is an extraordinary connection between the Nine Heavenly Xuan Maidens. What kind of heaven-defying technique did Chi Yao actually pass on to them?”Zhang Ruochen was quite puzzled.
By the power of the Nine Heavenly Xuan Maidens catalysing the Ru Ancestor Sacred Book, the power fluctuations scattered out from the scrolls were strong to the extreme, and a wave of words converging together rolled around in the divine hall, dispersing the Evil Shakti Qi that shrouded the divine hall one after another.
Not only that, even this divine hall was undergoing tremendous changes, a divine light, surging out from the depths of the divine hall, landing on the bodies of the First Class Marquises, forcing them to be distracted from their defence.
“This Young Sovereign still doesn’t believe it!”
On the surface of Young Monarch Spirit All’s skin, dense divine patterns emerged, bursting out as his aura continued to grow.
That purple stone, under the urging of the Evil Shakti Qi, actually became more and more gigantic, and in the end, it literally transformed into a purple divine mountain.
“This stone, is a Rakshasa Clan’s Refiner Saint Master, who collected a purple star located near a black hole outside of the universe, and refined it into a secret treasure that can both suppress space and destroy the heavens and the earth.”
The purple divine mountain was incomparably heavy, and even with the cultivation of Ling Quan Shaojun, it was only after bursting into full strength that he managed to hold it up with great difficulty, blasting it towards the Nine Heavens, hitting each and every text as it burst into pieces and turned into grains of aerosol.
“Divine Hall, collect.”
The Nine Heavens Xuan Nü quickly retreated, her brow radiating a star-like radiance, while stretching out a pair of slender jade arms, releasing a massive holy force, collecting the divine hall at her feet.
The divine hall flew into midair, and although it became much smaller, it was still more than a hundred feet tall.
A mysterious texture climbed above the temple, releasing an ancient power.
The divine hall blasted over, colliding violently with the purple divine mountain.
In the next moment, a divine light blossomed out in the swamp, beating the cold air and flames into oblivion.
The Sacred Eating Flower spread out tens of thousands of roots and tens of thousands of vines, and was fighting against hundreds of Rakshasa Marquises, and after the divine light impacted out, it directly destroyed a large portion of the Sacred Eating Flower’s vines.
At the same time, a large number of Rakshasa Marquises were shocked to death and fell in a pool of blood.
It had to be said that this clash between the Nine Heavens Xuan Maiden and the Spirit Quan Young Monarch was very astonishing, and the level of power had completely transcended the Saint realm, as if two Saint Kings were battling against each other.
The battle weapons in their hands, the “Divine Hall” and the “Purple Divine Mountain”, were also extraordinary, surpassing ordinary Ten Thousand Lines Saint Artifacts, and could drastically increase their combat power.
Ling Quan Young Monarch covered his chest and retreated a distance of more than ten miles in the swamp.
With that clash of strikes just now, he had suffered a considerable amount of injuries.
The Nine Heavenly Mysteries was not unscathed, the fingers of her hands, as if they were ceramic, cracked open with a line of blood. However, it was only after the holy power had operated for a week, the blood lines on the fingers were restored as before.
All eight First Grade Marquises retreated back, lining up behind Young Sovereign Ling Quan, staring as if they were enemies at the opposite side of the Nine Heavens Xuan Maiden.
Zhang Ruochen was also observing the Nine Heavenly Xuan Maiden, in her body, both the shadow of the Sacred Book Talented Maiden and the shadows of the Xuan Maiden of Canglan Martial Sage, Qing Mo, and the Divine Goddess of Life ……, among others, could be seen.
Not only was their physical bodies fused into one, even their sacred souls were merged together.
“Ling Quan Young Sovereign clearly possesses a Supreme Perfection System, and moreover, his cultivation has reached the peak of Supreme Sainthood, yet when he fought with her, he actually fell into a disadvantage. The strength of the Nine Heavenly Mysteries is also too heaven-defying, could it be that they are the strongest means cultivated by Chi Yao?”
Zhang Ruochen secretly projected that with his current cultivation, even if he used the power of time and space, his chances of winning against the Nine Heavenly Mysteries would not be more than 30%.
Unless, one broke through to the Supreme Saint realm.
If there was only one Nine Heavenly Xuan Nü, Young Lord Ling Quan would not be afraid, with the strength of him and the nine First Class Marquises, he would be able to suppress her completely.
However, in addition to the Nine Heavenly Xuan Maiden, there was also a Zhang Ruochen.
This battle became somewhat tricky.
“Rumble.”
In the distance, a vast wave of spiritual energy surged outwards, causing this swamp to become sky-high.
The gazes of the crowd, looked towards the centre of the wave of spiritual power, only to see that Chu Siyuan, who had been suppressed by the Immortal Marquis, was spewing holy light from every pore, and his long and beard were all flying up, like a steel needle.
Chu Si Yuan’s eyes snapped open, and two pillars of light flew out from the pupils of his eyes, piercing through Xian Qian Hou’s shoulders, shocking Xian Qian Hou’s shapely and delicate body, throwing it up, and spilling drops of blood from the wounds.
Chu Siyuan’s finger, after sticking to the blood, immediately drew a blood-red horizontal line in mid-air.
The blood-red horizontal line gently trembled and changed into a blood sword, striking at Immortal Husband’s heart with a hundred times the sound.
Immortal Marquis’ hands formed seals and struck out thirteen layers of light seals in a row, clashing with the blood sword.
“Boom boom.”
The blood sword penetrated through the thirteen layers of light seals and struck Immortal Marquis’s chest, causing her delicate body to bow and spit out a large mouthful of blood.
“This old stubborn head, under the oppression of Xian婈 Hou, her spiritual power actually broke through to the fifty-fifth rank, becoming a Spiritual Power Saint King in one fell swoop.”
Zhang Ruochen gently shook his head, not feeling too surprised, after all, with Chu Siyuan’s accumulation, he should have reached this step a long time ago.
Seeing this scene, Young Sovereign Ling Quan leapt and flew over, extending a thick arm to embrace Immortal Mistress’s savage waist as he shouted, “Go.”
In the next moment, the black wings on Young Lord Ling Quan’s back unfolded, transforming into a ball of thunder and lightning light as he shot out into the dense forest first. The eight First Grade Marquises, too, all unfolded their feathered wings and followed closely.
Chu Siyuan’s spiritual power, although he had broken through to the fifty-fifth rank, his body’s injuries were so heavy that there was no way to go after the Spirit Quan Young Monarch and the others.
The Nine Heavenly Mysteries were in the same situation, apart from Qing Mo, each one of them was heavily injured, and even after merging, it was difficult to fight for a long time.
Besides, Ling Quan Shaojun and the nine First Class Marquises were not weak, if they really had to fight to the death, there was no telling who would be the final winner.
Therefore, they could only watch as Young Lord Ling Quan left.
Apart from the Nine Heavenly Mysteries and Chu Siyuan, there were only four Confucian Sacred Scholars left alive, and they could be said to have suffered heavy losses. If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t arrived, it was likely that the entire army would have been wiped out.
This battle had also made them deeply realise how powerful the Rakshasa Clan was.
Zhang Ruochen, on the contrary, appeared quite calm as he took out a precious bottle and flew to the top of the swamp to collect strands of Rakshasa remnant souls. After collecting them, Zhang Ruochen beckoned to the Sacred Eating Flower and said, “Let’s go!”
“Zhang Ruochen, are you just going to leave like this?”Chu Siyuan’s voice rang out.
Zhang Ruochen said, “What? Could it be that Patriarch Chu’s spiritual power has broken through to the fifty-fifth rank and his self-confidence is bursting, wanting to leave me behind?”
Chu Siyuan sat on the ground, his eyes somewhat complicated as he said, “Thanks to your timely arrival this time, we were able to turn the tide of battle and repel that group of top Rakshasa Clan powerhouses. For this, I am very grateful.”
Zhang Ruochen’s face remained unchanged as he said, “Being able to receive a word of thanks from Patriarch Chu is truly not an easy task.”
Chu Siyuan’s eyes widened, revealing a huffy expression as he said, “Old me has always been able to distinguish between grudges and thanks, so if I should be thanked, I would be thanked, and if I should be scolded ……”
“Without anything else, I will leave first.”Zhang Ruochen shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent look.
“Wait a minute.”
Chu Siyuan hurriedly called out to him, collecting some of his emotions and said, “You should also be able to tell that the strength of that batch of Rakshasa Marquises just now was quite terrifying. Their target, it seems, is you and Nalan girl, and if they didn’t succeed this time, they will definitely move for the next attack. With your strength alone, it’s impossible to be their opponent, how about co-operating with us? We’ll join forces and exterminate them.”
“Not interested.”
Zhang Ruochen carried his hands behind his back and travelled towards the dense forest at the edge of the swamp, leaving behind only a faint back shadow.
It wasn’t that Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to deal with Ling Quan Shaojun and the others, it was just that he didn’t want to come into too deep contact with the cultivators of the Kunlun Realm, again especially this group of people beside the Empress.
If it wasn’t for his friendship with the Sacred Book Talented Lady, this time, he wouldn’t have wanted to come.
Only after entering the dense forest and coming to a hidden area did Zhang Ruochen stop and began to think about how to deal with this group of Rakshasa Marquises, the Spirit Quan Young Monarch, when they encountered them again.
It was difficult to sweep away all enemies with the power of one person alone.
With the Eating Sacred Flower’s current strength, it could also only deal with a First Class Marquis at most, so there was a need to look for other allies in order to do so.
“Master, my second fruit has matured, as long as it fuses with my true body, my strength, once again, will be able to grow by a large margin.”The voice of the Sacred Eating Flower came out from the vines.
Zhang Ruochen said, “As I recall, your second fruit should be a physical body, right?”
“That’s right. As long as I fuse the second fruit, I will be able to have a human body.”Sacred Flower Eater said.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “How long will it take you to fully fuse your physical body with your true body?”
“It will take about a month.”
“Good, next, you will enter the inner space of the Space Crystal Stone to cultivate your human body as soon as possible.”
Zhang Ruochen put the Sacred Eating Flower into the Space Crystal Stone, and then, he lifted the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and entered the dense forest alone, launching a hunting trip.
