By killing the Yan Xu Sacred General and the seven elders of the Pearl Light Pavilion, Zhang Ruochen had already proved that he was strong enough to call his bluff with the Ninth Order Half-Saints.
However, to say that he was able to defeat Ouyang Huan, not a single person would believe it.
The same Ninth Order Half-Saint was also categorized into early stage, middle stage, late stage, and peak, and Saint General Yan Xu had only just broken through to the early stage of the Ninth Order Half-Saint.
What was more, Ouyang Huan already possessed the strength to kill a Ninth Order Half-Saint when he was a Sixth Order Half-Saint.
Now, at his cultivation level, he had reached the Ninth Order Half-Saint.
I’m afraid that even if it was an existence at the peak of the Ninth Order Half-Saint, Ouyang Huan would be able to press him to death by stretching out a finger.
From afar, the Ghost Valley Saint General felt that Zhang Ruochen was a bit of an idiot and let out a sinister laugh, ”What arrogance, a mere low ranked Half-Saint claiming to waste the legs of a Boundary Son. Could there be anything more amusing than this?”
Zhang Ruochen had deliberately restrained his aura, and it would take at least a character of Ling Fei Yu’s level to be able to see through his true cultivation.
Thus, the Ghost Valley Saint General only guessed that Zhang Ruochen was still a low-ranked Half-Saint.
After all, Zhang Ruochen had only broken through to the Half-Saint realm a few months ago, so even if he had even greater wonders, it would be impossible for him to cross the threshold of a middle-order Half-Saint.
“Zhang Ruochen should be bluffing, wanting to deter the cultivators of the Demon Sect, and then, take advantage of the opportunity to escape.”
Kong Hongbi felt that he had seen through Zhang Ruochen, and then, his eyes were fixed on Beauty Shi, feeling more and more that she was extraordinary and shouldn’t be an ordinary woman.
If necessary, Kong Hongbi was prepared to make a move and take the Stone Beauty over.
Some of the cultivators of the Devil Cult stood at the edge of the street, some stood on the rooftops, and there were also some hidden in the shadows who did not show themselves.
At this moment, all of them let out dull laughter, seemingly mocking Zhang Ruochen, feeling that he was out of his depth.
“Boom.”
Zhang Ruochen snorted coldly and took a step forward, stepping on the ground with one foot, and immediately, the earth collapsed downwards, cracking as if it was a spider’s web, emitting a “snapping” sound.
At the same time, golden Buddhist texts, scriptures, and Sanskrit texts flew out from Zhang Ruochen’s chest, turning into a sea of words.
Between the heavens and the earth, indistinct Buddhist sounds resounded, as if there were millions of monks chanting.
At this very moment, Zhang Ruochen unlocked the third layer of the Sherri Son’s seal, and in an instant, a vast and majestic Buddha Qi surged out and entered his body.
Unlocking the third layer of the Sherri Son’s seal, within an hour, Zhang Ruochen could possess a battle power comparable to that of a Sacred Realm being.
“Wow.”
The golden Buddhist texts in the sky converged towards Zhang Ruochen and condensed into a golden Buddha over a hundred feet tall.
The Buddha’s virtual image was golden, divine and solemn, with watery ripples of Buddha Qi rushing in all directions, forming a stark contrast with the blood-colored ghost Qi in the direction of the Pearl Pavilion.
“How is it possible? The aura on Zhang Ruochen’s body has unexpectedly become stronger and stronger, on the verge of catching up with the Saint realm beings. Moreover, it continues to strengthen.”
“Could it be that Zhang Ruochen has a Sacred Buddha living inside his body?”
“No wonder Zhang Ruochen dares to fight against the entire Demon Sect, so he has a card.”?……
The cultivators of the Devil Sect immediately cast out their body techniques and fled into the distance.
Only Ouyang Huan was the only one who rushed forward alone, taking out a white lance and firing it with both hands.
Ouyang Huan was able to tell that in Zhang Ruochen’s body, there was a Buddhist Sect’s greatest treasure that could forcefully raise his cultivation to the Saint realm.
Right now, it was not Zhang Ruochen’s strongest state, and it was also the best time for Ouyang Huan to strike.
Once he waited until Zhang Ruochen reached his peak state, I was afraid that no one present would be able to suppress him.
At the tip of the spear, a sheet of flame was released, condensing into a crimson fire cloud that trailed out a tail several meters long.
On the ground, the stone slabs all melted and turned into liquid magma.
“Boom.”
The white lance pierced through the layers of Buddha light, stabbing straight at Zhang Ruochen’s heart with a devastating might.
However, when the white lance collided with Zhang Ruochen’s body, it made the sound of metal hitting metal, as if it was a giant hammer that struck on top of a bronze bell.
Zhang Ruochen retreated backwards, until he retreated tens of feet away, before he stabilized his footsteps again.
On the ground, a half meter deep, tens of feet long groove was left behind, extending all the way to Zhang Ruochen’s feet.
Zhang Ruochen was not injured, and the location of his heart merely left a white scratch.
His body, completely turned golden, as if it was forged from gold, with long thousands of Buddhist texts floating on the surface of his skin.
“Indestructible Golden Body?”Ouyang Huan was secretly aghast.
That strike just now, even if it had struck the body of a Lower Realm Saint, I’m afraid that it could have pierced through the opponent’s Saint Body. However, Zhang Ruochen was uninjured, how could it not surprise anyone?
Underneath Ouyang Huan’s feet, he stepped on the black ** lotus, his body speed was extremely fast as he grabbed the white lance and attacked Zhang Ruochen once again.
“Puffing.”
The flames gushing out from the white lance formed a hideous flaming beast claw, following the lance’s path, striking at Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.
Zhang Ruochen stretched out one palm and reached forward, directly grabbing the white lance.
The other hand slashed out, breaking the white lance.
The golden palm, which went on unabated, was like a five-fingered mountain and smashed into Ouyang Huan’s chest, causing Ouyang Huan to vomit blood and sprawl on the ground.
“Boom.”?The ground collapsed downwards, forming a large shattered pit.
In the pit, Ouyang Huan’s chest was sunken inwards, with a large portion of his ribs broken all over his body, and his internal organs severely traumatized.
From this, it could be seen how terrifying the power of Zhang Ruochen’s strike just now was.
“What a hell.”
Without any hesitation, Kong Hongbi and the Ghost Valley Saint General turned around and fled, evading as fast as they could.
The current Zhang Ruochen’s battle power that had erupted was too frightening, and surprisingly, with just one strike, he had knocked Ouyang Huan down.
Who could fight with him?
In the black market, the cultivators of the major powers were also too shocked to speak.
The Pavilion Master of the Pearl Pavilion, from the darkness, walked out and said in a cold voice, “Zhang Ruochen, if you dare to injure Lord Godson, no one in the entire Kunlun Realm will be able to save you.”
Earlier, the Pearl Pavilion Pavilion Master had been severely injured by the Blood Moon Ghost King, and after taking a Withered Wood Pill, he had recovered fifty percent of his injuries.
On his body, there was an aura that only saints had, as if he was the embodiment of heaven and earth, looking down on the multitudes.
In the eyes of ordinary cultivators, saints represented omnipotence, and there was no difference between “heaven” and “earth”.
Zhang Ruochen was silent and only shook his head gently, not taking the threat of the Pearl Pavilion Master to heart at all.
He wasn’t even afraid of the Empress and the court, but he was still afraid of the Moon Worshipping Demon Sect?
The Pearl Pavilion Master added, ”You used a secret method to obtain battle power comparable to that of a Saint in a short period of time. However, you are ultimately not a Saint and cannot understand the mysteries of the Saint realm, and the strength you can exert is very limited. When you encounter a true Saint, you will only die.”
“Is that talking about yourself?”Zhang Ruochen said.
The Pearl Pavilion Master cackled, “Although, old me is injured, it is not difficult to take you down.”
“In that case, why so much nonsense?”
Zhang Ruochen waved his sword and a black sword qi, connecting the earth and the dome of the sky, flew towards the Pearl Pavilion Master.
It wasn’t until Zhang Ruochen struck his sword that the Pearl Pavilion Master realized that he had underestimated Zhang Ruochen.
This son’s battle power was far too powerful than he had imagined.
The Pearl Pavilion Master didn’t dare to take this blow hard and executed his Body Technique to move out horizontally.
“Rumble.”
At the center of the street, a gap cracked out.
The cracked gap in the ground continued to widen, spreading out into the distance, extending all the way to a hundred miles away.
If one were to stand in mid-air and look down, they would realize that Zhang Ruochen’s sword just now had split the entire black market into two halves.
In the center, there was a deep, bottomless gully.
The Pearl Pavilion Master stood in mid-air and took out a pagoda shaped Sacred Artifact.
This tower, called the Thousand Lock Tower, was quite close to a Thousand Stripe Sacred Artifact battle weapon, with eight hundred and ninety-three inscriptions engraved in the tower.
The palm-sized tower slowly rose, rotating and expanding as it did so, soon becoming tens of feet tall, emitting a lofty aura like a black mountain flying in midair.
The Thousand Lock Pagoda was rotating, emitting a “whimpering” sound of wind and thunder.
The cultivators below, except for Zhang Ruochen and Shi Beauty, had all fled.
The destructive power of a Saint level encounter was quite astonishing, and ordinary cultivators, even if they stood a hundred miles away, could be shaken to death by the aftershocks of the battle.
“Kill.”
The Pearl Pavilion Pavilion Master controlled the Thousand Lock Pagoda and suppressed it towards Zhang Ruochen and Stone Beauty.
This was a strike from a Saint, enough to smash through the earth and destroy a city. It was impossible for an ordinary city’s protective formation to block it.
Zhang Ruochen held his sword in both hands and slowly raised his arms.
A single Buddhist text flew out, fusing with the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword as the sword spirit awakened, and the inscriptions in the sword, all of them, emerged.
A surge of power strength erupted out, becoming stronger and stronger.
“Wow…”
The sword qi, flew out, splitting the Thousand Lock Tower into two halves.
“Thousand Stripes Destruction Power, you’re grasping a Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifact?”
The Pearl Pavilion Pavilion Master was shocked and immediately crushed one of the protective amulets on his body, condensing it into a light shield with a diameter of ten feet.
The Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword was as powerful as a bamboo, piercing through the light shield and slashing at the top of the Pearl Light Pavilion Master’s head.
Right at this moment, a jade seal flew in from the side and collided with the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, deflecting the sword and saving the Pearl Pavilion Master’s life.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze, squinted.
Only to see that Ouyang Huan was standing in the center of the street, his fingers pinching out a kind of seal, controlling the jade seal and attacking Zhang Ruochen once again.
The jade seal was the “Seal of the Realm Sons”.
When the Nine Great Realm Sons left the gate, Empress Chi Yao personally gave it to them, representing the identity of the Realm Sons, and at the same time, it also possessed one of the Empress’s holy dao power.
With the Boundary Son Seal, the Nine Great Boundary Sons could suppress saints.
Ouyang Huan’s injuries were so severe that he was constantly spitting out blood from his mouth.
At the same time, he was controlling the Boundary Son Seal with strong willpower, inspiring a supreme imperial aura that radiated a golden yellow color.
The size of the Boundary Son Seal became as huge as a small city, suppressing it downwards to exterminate Zhang Ruochen and Shi Beauty.
“Boom.”
The Boundary Son Seal struck the ground, and the entire earth shook.
The defense formations of the few Evil Dao forces that were close by all trembled, just a little bit short of shattering.
Luckily, it resisted and didn’t break open, otherwise, many cultivators of the lower realms would have no bones left.
“Have Zhang Ruochen and Stone Beauty been subdued to death by the Boundary Son Seal?”
That strike just now, carrying one of the Empress’s Emperor’s power, had the power to kill saints, and many people suspected that Zhang Ruochen and Shi Beauty had been crushed into pieces.
Those Devil Cult cultivators, carefully rushed back, only to find that Zhang Ruochen was still standing there below the Boundary Son Seal.
On Zhang Ruochen’s body, golden light emerged, and he stretched out an arm to hold the city-sized Boundary Son Seal up, and did not fall down.
Only, at the corner of Zhang Ruochen’s mouth, there were traces of blood hanging from it, obviously he had suffered a considerable amount of injuries, and holding up the Boundary Son Seal was not an easy task.
