Sacred light flickered on Yan Kongming’s arm as he shook his arm, striking out three green-coloured iron tiles in a row, forming three streaks of green light that flew towards Zhang Ruochen.
The green-coloured iron medallions appeared crystal clear, and on their surface, densely-packed inscriptions emerged, ancient and magnificent.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Three explosions in a row.
The three cyan-coloured iron plaques shattered apart, sending out strands of cyan-coloured inscriptions that intertwined together, transforming into three Sixth Grade Attack Arrays, enveloping Zhang Ruochen within the interior of the arrays.
The three Sixth Grade Attack Formations were the Heavenly Heart Giant Ape Formation, the Xuan Ice Formation, and the Divine Sky Wind and Thunder Formation, all of which were formations capable of heavily damaging Half-Saints, and were Yan Kongming’s final cards.
Yan Kongming took a large step into the formation, his arms spreading out as he completely exuded his forty-five steps of spiritual power, forming an invisible tentacle that simultaneously controlled the three formations.
“Ow!”
At the centre of the Heavenly Heart Giant Ape Formation, holy qi surged violently, and a thirty-something feet tall flaming giant ape rose from the formation’s film of light, appearing hideous and furious as it let out a roar that shook the heavens and moved the earth.
Its body, which was made up of the energy of the formation, appeared to be quite berserk as it swung out a huge fist and struck at Zhang Ruochen’s head.
At the same time, the power of the Xuan Ice Formation and the Divine Sky Wind and Thunder Formation erupted at the same time. In the formation, dense ice knives and sharp blades flew out, and purple thunderbolts fell from the sky.
The might of the three formations was simply terrifying, beating the mountain beneath Zhang Ruochen’s feet and causing it to continuously sink downwards.
Compared to Yan Kongming’s methods, Ning Guihai was silent.
He performed the Secret Art of Stealth, and as his body flickered, in the air, a circle of ripples appeared. Immediately after, his body disappeared into place, clearly preparing to perform an assassination technique.
Below Mount Prana, Blue Night’s face, which was very gloomy, had a strong opinion of Zhang Ruochen, saying, ”Obviously, he has already won and can easily ascend to the top of the mountain and seize the last Flag Master’s position, but he is coveting two Sacred Artifacts, forcing Yan Kuangming and Ning Guihai to fight for their lives against him. I’d like to see if he can defuse the crisis at hand?”
“From the process of climbing the mountain, one can see that this son is smart and not a foolish person. Since he dared to seize the Rain Mio Blood Sword and Dragon Tooth Dagger, he also definitely has a way to deal with Yan Kongming and Ning Guihai.”Ji Shui Dao.
The power of the three formations was indeed quite powerful, forcing Zhang Ruochen to only passively defend.
However, Ning Huihai’s stealthy secret technique was no threat at all to Zhang Ruochen, who possessed the Eye of Divine Seal.
His every move simply could not escape Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.
Just as Ning Guihai dived behind Zhang Ruochen and prepared to launch a sneak attack.
The corner of Zhang Ruochen’s mouth hooked and he struck out first, backhanding a palm strike, another move of the Seven Orifices Blood Underworld Palm.
“Boom.”
The palm imprint wrapped by flames struck Ning Guihai’s face. Ning Guihai’s head was split apart as if it were a watermelon.
Blood splattered as he died a miserable death.
Anyway, they had already offended them, and with the nature of the Evil Dao cultivators, they would definitely not let up, and letting them go back would only be letting the tiger return to the mountain.
In order to avoid worries, Zhang Ruochen could only kill them.
As for the repercussions that would be caused by killing Ning Guihai, he would naturally have the Sea Underworld Venerable King to help him out, so he was not afraid of being sanctioned by the Blood God Sect.
Afterwards, Zhang Ruochen summoned all his strength and struck out with another palm, striking the ground.
“Rumble!”
In the palm of his hand, a tens of feet long blood dragon flew out, striking the three Sixth Grade Formations and shaking them violently.
Even the ground, a huge crack cracked out, causing the Prana Mountain to shake violently, as if it was about to collapse.
Seeing the crack in the ground and looking at Ning Guihai’s corpse, Yan Kongming felt a chill run down his vest and developed the intention to retreat.
Bai Yu was seriously injured and Ning Guihai died tragically, with him alone, was there any hope of winning?
“That brat has acted weak from the very beginning, but in reality, his cultivation is unfathomable, continuing to fight with him may follow in Ning Guihai’s footsteps.”
After weighing the pros and cons, Yan Kongming stomped his feet and flew backwards, surprisingly giving up on continuing to fight with Zhang Ruochen and directly fleeing down the Prana Mountain.
In the end, it was still because, Yan Kongming couldn’t see through Zhang Ruochen’s depths, so he didn’t dare to continue the fight.
Who knew how strong that brat, really was?
“Boom.”?Zhang Ruochen struck seventeen palm seals in a row before shattering the three Sixth Grade Attack Arrays, leapt and landed on a position of higher ground and glanced downwards.
Those Half-Saints who were climbing the mountain, seeing Zhang Ruochen above them, all of them were slightly shaken and couldn’t help but take a step backward.
That previous battle had caused three great experts to be injured, die, and escape, and with such a magnificent battle, Zhang Ruochen had naturally stunned everyone present.
“Forget it, there’s no need to fight, let’s give him the position of Flag Master.”
A middle-aged man with a strand of white hair growing from his temples shook his head and chose to give up, not continuing to climb upwards.
“This person is simply too strong, and his methods are also very poisonous and decisive, so it’s better not to mess with him.”
“With this battle, this person will definitely become famous, and his fame will overshadow Bai Yu and Ning Guihai. Under the Divine Son and Holy Maiden, he should be the strongest.”
“Who exactly is he? How come I haven’t seen him before?”
……
Everyone only knew that the young man above was the disciple grandson of the Sea Meditation Dharma King, but very few people knew his name.
Zhang Ruochen saw the crowd below, retreating like a tidal wave, and revealed an evil smile.
He put away the Rain Mio Blood Sword and the Dragon Tooth Dagger, and walked towards the top of the mountain with a slow and written pace that was very leisurely.
“That brat, actually able to defeat the siege of Bai Yu, Yan Kongming, and Ning Guihai with his own strength, I had underestimated him earlier. His physique and his attainments in the way of palmistry are somewhat extraordinary.”
A pair of starry eyes of the Blood God Sect’s Holy Maiden revealed a strange gleam, showing some interest in Zhang Ruochen.
The Divine Son of the Blood God Cult glanced towards the Holy Maiden standing beside him, and when he stared at Zhang Ruochen once again, he couldn’t help but reveal a cold and sharp expression, saying, “The battle power is indeed not bad, but it’s a pity that it is only with the help of the Blood God Compass that he’s so strong. Without the Blood God Compass, he would only be a Second Stage Half-Saint.”
The Blood God Sect Holy Maiden gently nodded and said, “That’s true. It’s really a bit of a pity, if he hadn’t taken the Blood God Compass, his future achievements would definitely not be low.”
Although the Blood God Sect’s divine Son and Holy Maiden were both at the cultivation level of Third Order Half-Saint, however, with their status, it wasn’t too difficult for them to obtain a Fourth Grade Sacred Elemental Pill, and they would soon be able to break through to Fourth Order Half-Saint.
Once they broke through to Fourth Order Half-Saint, with their physique, they would be able to fight against Sixth Order Half-Saints, thus, naturally, they would not put a Second Order Half-Saint in their eyes.
Soon after, Zhang Ruochen ascended to the top of the mountain, pulled up the last black battle flag, and smiled at the Blood God Cult Divine Son and Holy Maiden, saying, “Your Highness the Divine Son, Your Highness the Holy Maiden, in the future, we will both be the flag masters of the Pixie Character Heavenly Palace, and when the time comes, I hope that the two of you will be able to give more support to my humble self.”
The Divine Son of the Blood God Cult snorted coldly and glanced his face away, not having any good feelings towards Zhang Ruochen.
The Holy Maiden of the Blood God Cult, on the contrary, was a little less cold and a little more gentle as she laughed, “You have offended this Holy Maiden, so you don’t intend to take out something to compensate me and resolve the conflict between us?”
Zhang Ruochen was puzzled and said, “Have I offended Your Highness the Holy Maiden?”
The Blood God Cult Holy Maiden’s eyes, which carried a kind of demonic power, softly said, “You can continue to play the fool, but also remember that after entering the Pixie Character Heavenly Palace, this Holy Maiden that is, she may either promote you, or she may kill you. It depends on how you choose now?”
Zhang Ruochen nodded as he pretended to understand and took out the Dragon Tooth Dagger, cupping it in his hands as he presented it to the Blood Goddess Sacred Maiden and smiled, “If there is really any misunderstanding between us, I would like to ask Your Highness, the Sacred Maiden, to please be magnanimous and make sure not to take it to heart.”
The Dragon’s Tooth Dagger, which was the tooth of a Saint realm poisonous dragon, was as sharp as a Saint weapon, moreover, the toxin contained on top of the dagger was enough to pose a certain threat to Saints.
As for characters who hadn’t reached the Seventh Order Half-Saint, once they were pierced through the skin by the dragon’s tooth dagger, it could be said that they would definitely die.
Even if a character above the Seventh Order Semi-Saint was hit by the dragon poison on the dagger, if they didn’t have a top-tier antidote pill, they wouldn’t be able to support themselves for long.
It was for this reason that the Dragon Tooth Dagger was even more precious than some Saint Artifacts.
“To recognise the time is to be a wise man, this saying couldn’t be more appropriate when applied to you.”
The Blood God Cult Holy Maiden stretched out a slender jade arm and grabbed the Dragon Tooth Dagger.
Her wrist, then, turned into a phantom as she swung the dagger and chopped at Zhang Ruochen’s neck.
Zhang Ruochen was prepared for this, so he didn’t panic at all and struck out with a palm, striking at the Blood God Sect Holy Maiden’s waist and abdomen.
The Holy Maiden of the Blood God Sect quickly retracted her arm and used the Nine Circles of Holy Light on her body to defuse Zhang Ruochen’s palm. Afterwards, she smiled sweetly, ”The reaction speed is quite fast, I’m afraid that you’re on the verge of catching up with His Highness the Divine Son in terms of actual combat experience. Fine! For the sake of this Dragon Tooth Dagger, this Holy Maiden will spare you this time. What is your name?”
“Reporting back to Your Highness the Holy Maiden, I am Gu Linfeng.”Zhang Ruochen said with an arch.
The Divine Son of the Blood God Cult stood on the side, and seeing Zhang Ruochen scowling with the Holy Maiden of the Blood God Cult, his heart was very displeased and he glared over at Zhang Ruochen, revealing a warning look.
Zhang Ruochen, however, as if he couldn’t read the Blood God Cult Divine Son’s eyes, continued to communicate with the Blood God Cult Holy Maiden, and in the end, finally learnt her name, which was Shangguan Xianyan, born in the Shangguan Family.
The two Flag Kings of the Pixie Character Heavenly Palace, Savage Wild and Zhao Wuliang, climbed to the top of Mount Pura.
With a smile on his face, Zhao Wuliang said, “Congratulations to the three of you for becoming the new Flag Lords of the Phantom Word Heavenly Palace, Gu Linfeng is under this king’s command, and Your Highnesses the Divine Son and the Sacred Maiden will be following Barbarian Wild’s Flag Lords in their future adventures. Two days later, the three of you, you must report to the Psi Character Heavenly Palace on time.”
After saying that, Zhao Wulan gave Zhang Ruochen a meaningful stare.
Afterwards, Zhao Wuliang left first with the Savage Flag King and returned to the Pixie Character Heavenly Palace.
Although, Zhao Wulan’s expression was very kind and he was wearing a smile at all times, yet Zhang Ruochen always felt that the last look this person stared at him was very strange, making him feel shaky.
“Could it be that he was hitting on the Rain Mio Blood Sword?”
Zhang Ruochen’s mind secretly pondered and made the decision that he must be wary of this person when he entered the Phantom Word Heavenly Palace.
