Below, dozens of top Sacred Realm powerhouses from the Blade and Prison Realm and the Purple Mansion Realm looked at the Golden Step Dragon Carriage that flipped and flew down, and all of them revealed a cold and sullen expression, killing intent in their eyes.
Fang Yi had the deepest resentment in his heart, and without waiting for the Golden Step Dragon Carriage to fall down, he mobilised the power of the White Micro Star, and a pillar of light flew out from his brow.
The other saints also condensed their own holy arts and struck the Golden Step Dragon Carriage in an all-encompassing manner.
Suddenly, space shook slightly, scattering a circle of ripples.
“Wow…”
The Golden Step Dragon Carriage fell into the interior of the spatial ripples and disappeared, and all of the holy arts that they had struck struck out came up empty.
“Come out to me.”
The Saint Qi within the East Stream Sword Sovereign’s body operated in a hurry, and he held his sword in both hands, thrusting it into the earth, and instantly, dense butterfly shadows flew out of the sword’s body, shocking the Golden Step Dragon Carriage out of the interior of the space.
The Golden Step Dragon Chariot had moved more than a hundred feet away, once again blossoming with a bright golden aura as nine dragon souls rushed out from within the chariot, bursting out with a powerful dragon might as it raced forward.
Han Qiu and Crazy Demon, who had been seriously injured, rushed into the dragon carriage.
“What now? With a terrifying figure like Yue Kong blocking the way in front of us, and dozens of top Saint realm experts chasing after us, today, it looks like it will be very difficult to escape out. Why don’t we all burn our Saint blood together and stay to kill the sky and earth, even if we die in battle, wouldn’t it be sensational?”
Crazy Devil’s face was rather pale, yet his eyes were still crazy.
Devil Voice’s eyes, gazing at Zhang Ruochen, said, “Directly use the Great Spatial Shift?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “The spatial structure of the ninety-nine holy mountains is different from the outside world, not only is it solid, but it’s also chaotic, making it difficult to perform a long-distance Spatial Grand Nomination.”
“Furthermore, the East Stream Sword Sovereign has cultivated a rather powerful sword technique that can cause space to give birth to bizarre rhythms. With my current spatial attainments, it’s still difficult to suppress that rhythm. Once he executes that kind of sword skill, I can only give up spatial shifting.”
At the back, Fang Yi struck a white beam of light that impacted on top of the Golden Step Dragon Chariot, causing the holy power light mist at the outer perimeter of the Dragon Chariot to emit a popping sound, and the entire body shook as if it was about to topple over.
Immediately after that, there was another powerful Saint Weapon that blasted over. Zhang Ruochen scattered a large handful of defensive talismans before he was able to fend off the attacks of those Saint Weapons.
The situation was quite critical, once they were surrounded, they were afraid that they could only burn their Saint Blood to fight to the death.
“Together, we will inject our Saint Qi into the Golden Step Dragon Chariot to stimulate the Second Yew Perfection power of the Dragon Chariot.”
Zhang Ruochen’s one hundred and forty-four orifices all over his body opened completely, spewing out large amounts of holy qi. Devil Voice, Han Qiu, Ah Le, and Crazy Devil also released the maximum amount of holy qi and injected it into the Golden Step Dragon Chariot.
The inscriptions in the dragon carriage, constantly emerging, burst out stronger and stronger, scattering out golden auras that pierced the eyes of the saints unable to open, fifteen thousand, sixteen thousand ……
……
Eighteen thousand.
……
Inside the bodies of the five people, rumbling sounds were coming out, and the holy qi in their meridians and holy veins was like a great river flowing.
Under their all-out excitation, more and more inscriptions revived, and in the end, they finally barely passed twenty thousand channels.
“Boom!”
At the periphery of the Golden Step Dragon Chariot, a second circle of holy power light mist manifested, and the aura that emanated from it surged by a large margin. Just the sound of the wheels turning was so loud that it caused the eardrums of the Saint realm powerhouses present to ache and their eyes to blacken.
Yue Kong, who was blocking the front of the Golden Step Dragon Carriage, also had some changes in his face, no longer as calm as before.
“Roar!”
Yue Kong’s fists were clenched tightly, flames gushing out from one hundred and forty-four orifices all over his body, and his beast legs fiercely stomped on the ground, once again charging towards the Golden Step Dragon Chariot.
The ground that was trampled by him caved in a large area.
A Saint King whose flesh body had become a saint, bursting out his attack power with all his might, not to mention a chariot, even an iron mountain could be smashed to smithereens.
However, in this collision, Yue Kong was sent flying out by the Golden Step Dragon Chariot.
“Rumble.”
The mountain of the Sacred Mountain was all but smashed into a huge hole by the Golden Step Dragon Chariot, with a large amount of rocks and soil collapsing downwards.
After rushing out of the holy mountain, the few people in the Golden Step Dragon Carriage couldn’t help but reveal a joyful expression, as if they had escaped from hell and returned to the earth, making people incomparably excited.
Just now, when the Golden Step Dragon Chariot’s Second Yew Perfection power was stirred up, it had indeed exploded with unrivalled power, but it had also caused the holy qi in their bodies to be consumed quite immensely, and they had to hastily take out pills to restore their holy qi and swallow them into their mouths.
When the pills entered their stomachs, they exploded and turned into thick holy qi, integrating into their meridians and holy veins.
Unfortunately, before they could fully recover their holy energy, suddenly, the Golden Step Dragon Chariot’s travelling speed decreased sharply, as if it had rushed into a swamp, making it difficult to move an inch.
“Not good.”
Zhang Ruochen detected a powerful Saint Qi fluctuation coming from all directions, the number of which was frighteningly high, causing the entire space to be imprisoned.
It was the Saint Qi fluctuations that were too dense, and thus, it suppressed the Golden Step Dragon Carriage to a halt.
In the four directions of the Golden Step Dragon Chariot, the figures of a Saint walked out, both in human form and beast form, forming a rank grand formation.
“Ten Thousand Saints Grand Formation.”
Crazy Demon sucked in a breath of cool air and said, “This is the end, even if we put our lives on the line, we probably won’t be able to make any waves.”
The time Zhang Ruochen and the others had spent in the underground cave had long passed half an hour, and it wasn’t a surprise that the Saints of the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm had set up the Ten Thousand Saints Grand Formation outside the Sacred Mountain.
Even if Zhang Ruochen and the others, killed the thousand or so Saints who were trapped in the spatial maze, it would not change such an outcome. After all, half an hour was such a long time, the Saint in the Sacred Mountain would definitely be aware of it, and others weren’t fools.
One could only say that the attraction of the Rule Emperor Artifact was too great, causing Zhang Ruochen and the others to stay in the underground hollow for too long before putting themselves in such a perilous situation.
With the power of the Ten Thousand Sacred Formation, even if the Second Flare Perfection power of the Golden Step Dragon Chariot was stirred up once again, it would be impossible to rush out.
The Ten Thousand Saints Grand Formation was indeed quite powerful, even if a veteran Saint King was trapped inside, he would still be subdued and killed, so it was almost impossible for a few of them with their cultivation levels to break through the formation from within.
Zhang Ruochen naturally expected that such a situation was possible, yet he still resolutely chose to seize the Rule Emperor Artifact, and that was because, in his hands, he held the Divine Spirit Battle Artifact.
It was for this reason that he was more calm than anyone else.
Fang Yi, the East Stream Sword Sovereign, Yue Kong, and a large number of other top powerhouses arrived at the edge of the Ten Thousand Sacred Great Formation.
Fang Yi’s hands were behind his back, and a smile finally appeared on his face as he said, “The Ten Thousand Sacred Great Formation can suppress space, so today, how else can you escape?”
Zhang Ruochen was not in a hurry to strike.
This was because, just a moment ago, a mental power transmission sounded in his mind. There was a powerful external aid that had already arrived at the Ugin Sacred Mountain.
It was difficult to break through the Ten Thousand Sacred Formation from the inside, however, it was much easier to break through the Ten Thousand Sacred Formation from the outside.
“Put up a fight!”
Han Qiu’s eyes turned pitch-black, and a vast evil aura surged out from her body, as if she had transformed into a female god of death.
Zhang Ruochen pressed down on her arm, then, staring over towards Fang Yi’s direction, he revealed a smirk, “I’m going to stop running away!”
Fang Yi said, “Since you’ve given up on escaping, then hand over the Rule Emperor Artifact. If you honestly co-operate, this Realm Son can consider it and leave a few of you with your whole bodies.”
Zhang Ruochen took out the Buddha Emperor Relic and held it in the palm of his hand, saying, “Not escaping, that’s because, I intend to die with you all.”
With Zhang Ruochen’s other hand, he struck out a holy qi and injected it into the Buddha Emperor’s Reliquary, and with that, the reliquary’s light skyrocketed, radiating a destructive aura.
“What for? Is Zhang Ruochen trying to detonate the relic and destroy this piece of heaven and earth?”
“That’s …… that’s the relic of a great Buddhist saint, once it’s detonated, I’m afraid that all of us will have to be buried with him.”
“Zhang Ruochen has mastered the secret art of detonating a great saint’s relic?”
The Saints of the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm were all moved, obviously truly stunned. They didn’t doubt that Zhang Ruochen would really detonate the Great Saint Relic, after all, they would die either way, so they might as well die with their enemies.
Fang Yi’s face changed slightly as he said, ”Zhang Ruochen, are you crazy? How can it be that easy to detonate the Great Saint Relic, I don’t believe that you can really do it.”
“Don’t believe me?”
Zhang Ruochen laughed coldly, then mobilised the Pure Destruction Divine Flame and pressed it towards the Buddha Emperor’s Relic.
The Great Sage’s Relic was quite stable and required a powerful holy force to activate it before it could be detonated, and it was almost impossible for a Saint to do so.
However, seeing Zhang Ruochen mobilise the Pure Destruction Divine Flame, all the Saints present felt bad. They didn’t know if the Pure Destruction Divine Flame could detonate the Great Saint Relic, but, yet, there was definitely a certain possibility.
Who dared to bet?
There were tens of thousands of Saints from the Blade Prison Realm and the Violet Mansion Realm present, and once all of them died here, they would definitely be able to cause the two worlds to suffer a great loss of vitality.
Fang Yi knew that Zhang Ruochen didn’t really want to detonate the Shelly Son, more than that, he just wanted to deter them so that he could seek a way out.
The Saints in the Ten Thousand Saints Formation were already in a bit of a panic, all wanting to get as far away from Zhang Ruochen as possible, not wanting to die with him.
It was because, they had such thoughts that the power radiating from the formation was getting weaker and weaker.
Fang Yi was also under immense pressure, and after exchanging words with the East Stream Sword Sovereign, he gritted his teeth and said, “Hand over the Rule Emperor Artifacts, and you can be let go.”
“Fine! You come and get it, I’ll give it to you.”Zhang Ruochen agreed decisively.
Fang Yi stared at Zhang Ruochen carefully, always feeling that he could not possibly hand over the Rule Emperor Artifact so easily and must have an ulterior motive.
The East Stream Swordfather whispered, “Zhang Ruochen is most likely trying to capture you and use you as a hostage to escape this place. Yue Kong and I will enter the formation with you, and any means he has will be enough to deal with him.”
“Good.”
Fang Yi nodded.
Subsequently, Fang Yi gave an order, causing the Saints controlling the formation to open a gap.
Just as Fang Yi, East Stream Sword Sovereign, and Yue Kong stepped into the Ten Thousand Saints Formation, the sky to the south was flooded with densely-packed points of light, as if it was a rain of light, impacting the Ten Thousand Saints Formation, striking a Saint realm powerhouse in all directions.
Each point of light was a text.
All the words converged together, turning into an ocean of words, and at the centre of the ocean, there was an ancient holy book suspended.
