Through the exchange of words just now, Princess Baili had already roughly figured out the real strength of the human man on the opposite side, indeed very strong, however, it was only in the middle with her.
Even if he had some hidden means that he did not use, why would Princess Baili not have?
In a real fight, I’m afraid that in three days and three nights, it might not be possible to distinguish a winner from a loser.
Wanting to defeat her with seventeen swords was undoubtedly a fool’s errand.
“You are too conceited!”Princess Baili said.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t say anything more as he infused his Saint Qi into the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, stimulating all of the force system inscriptions in the sword, causing the sword to become incomparably heavy.
“The first sword, Thunderfire Prairie Fire.”
The ebony-black ancient sword, inserted into the ground, immediately attracted a sky full of thunder and lightning, striking towards Princess Bai Li.
The purple lightning, as thick as a disc, struck the ground and immediately melted the earth in a ten feet radius, turning it into a small magma lake.
“Boom boom.”
Dozens of thunderbolts, falling one after another, simply gave off a might that destroyed the sky and the earth.
In an instant, this oasis had become scorched earth, completely destroyed.
This move, from the True One Thunder and Fire Sword Technique, Zhang Ruochen had long ago cultivated the entire set of sword techniques to a great completion, and could explode with the power of a Sacred Art level.
Princess Baili appeared to be very calm, stepping lightly and constantly changing her body shape to avoid the lightning that fell from the sky, leaving behind dozens of delicate silhouettes.
“Is this the only strength you have?”
Her slender finger, pointing forwards, struck a finger sword, striking at Zhang Ruochen’s heart.
“Golden Dipper Sunrise.”
Zhang Ruochen struck out with another sword strike, and the sword light flew out like a meteor, colliding with the other party’s finger sword.
It was another Saint Art level sword move.
This move was from the Nine Lives Sword Technique.
Princess Baili once again stepped back, her heart secretly a little surprised, that human man was so young, yet he was proficient in two Saint Art level sword techniques, and he had also cultivated the Sword V of the Wordless Sword Compendium to the great circle.
Where did he get that much energy?
One must know that many of the strongest people on the top of the Half-Saint List and the Half-Saint Outer List were only proficient in one of the famous Sacred Arts, with which they fought the world’s heroes.
Naturally, she did not know that Zhang Ruochen had spent a lot of energy cultivating sword techniques in the Seven Lives and Seven Deaths Diagram, and even though, it was only a melting of two lifetimes of Saint Dao Sensations, it was still already extraordinary.
“Wow.”?
The battle between Princess Baili and Zhang Ruochen became more and more intense, bursting out faster and faster, and in the end, it completely turned into a humanoid phantom.
After ten swords, Princess Baili completely figured out Zhang Ruochen’s sword stance path, and responded more calmly.
“Your attainments above the Dao of the Sword are indeed very high, yet you lack variables and are destined to fail to surpass Xue Wuyi. Not to mention seventeen moves, even if it’s 1,700 moves, you won’t be able to defeat me.”Princess Baili said.
“Is that so?”
A strange smile flashed across Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as he cupped the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword in his hand and executed Sword V once more.
Swish-swish sounds resounded around the sword blade.
Dense sword shadows manifested, turning into a river of swords that struck towards Princess Bai Li.
Princess Bai Li gently shook her head, calmly standing in place, her long, snow-white fingers, pinching into a sword technique.
However, right at this moment, Princess Bai Li was keenly aware that the centre of that river of swords on the opposite side was emanating a power fluctuation that made her feel quite unfamiliar.
“That’s …… time ……”
By the time Princess Baili became alert, the time around her, a brief pause occurred.
In the next instant, Zhang Ruochen’s sword was already pointed at her brow.
There was an icy sword light flickering at the tip of the sword, and as long as it pierced down slightly more, it would be able to pierce Princess Bai Li’s head through.
“Fifteen moves.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Princess Bai Li felt slightly disorientated, then, dispersing the pinched sword technique, she was not alarmed, a piece of glistening white shell teeth gently biting her lips as she said, “Time and Space Successor, Zhang Ruochen, I haven’t guessed your identity wrong, right?”
“No.”Zhang Ruochen.
Princess Baili said, “You have a deep heart.”?
“In my opinion, that’s tactics.”Zhang Ruochen said.
In fact, Zhang Ruochen and Princess Bai Li’s cultivation levels were indeed at the same level.
It was not an easy task for Zhang Ruochen to win.
Trying to win within seventeen swords was even more of a pipe dream.
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen could only outwit them.
Zhang Ruochen’s use of the True One Thunder Fire Sword Technique and the Nine Lives Sword Technique at the beginning was to paralyse Princess Baili, and it was to pave the way for the last move of the Time Sword Technique, “Eight Moments of Life and Death Transformation”.
If Zhang Ruochen had performed the Time Sword Technique at the very beginning, at that time, Princess Bai Li would have been in a state of high alert.
Even if Zhang Ruochen was able to injure her, he would not be able to restrain her.
Once Princess Baili was on guard, it would be as difficult as heaven for Zhang Ruochen to get his hands on her again.
Princess Baili’s stance stood straight and did not admit defeat as she said, “Let’s fight again, as long as you can defeat me, I will do my best to help you save those Human Race cultivators who were captured by the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon.”
Even though, the other party was a Time and Space Transmitter, mastering the power of time and space, Princess Baili still had the confidence to fight him.
The exchange just now had been a complete moment of carelessness that had led to her defeat.
“You still have the qualifications to negotiate with me now?”Zhang Ruochen said.
Princess Baili snorted coldly, and the rest of her eyes, stared over in the direction of the Sacred Eating Flower. However, it was discovered that the fat cat from earlier, who didn’t know what means it had used, had sealed the Sacred Eating Flower inside a formation.
“What an abomination, it seems that the fat cat was somewhat underestimated.”
Princess Baili knew that the momentum was gone and was ready to retreat, so she moved her feet backward and performed the At Hand Steps.
The piece of earth behind her was as if it was rapidly shrinking.
A distance of a hundred miles became only a foot long.
Zhang Ruochen had known for a long time that the White Li Cat Clan had such an Innate Saint Technique, and thus, had never let his guard down.
Princess Baili had only just moved her footsteps when Zhang Ruochen immediately performed a Spatial Grand Nomadic Shift, catching up with her and pointing a finger out, striking the Heavenly Heart Vein on her back.
“Wow…”
A circle of white light surged out from Princess Baili’s back, and ninety percent of the Saint Qi in her body was sealed, and she couldn’t help but fall downwards.
Zhang Ruochen stretched out an arm and stopped her thin waist, lifting her up.
Princess Baili’s jade waist was quite slim and full of elasticity, and she immediately flipped upwards, her sharp fingers, striking towards Zhang Ruochen.
“If you don’t want to die, you better be honest.”?Zhang Ruochen flew in mid-air, looking cold and ruthless, one hand resting on her waist, the other cupping the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword against her neck.
The sharp blade of the sword left a scarlet bloodstain on her crystal white neck.
Princess Baili stared at Zhang Ruochen with some annoyance and withdrew her finger, then, turning a small and delicate face to the side, she said, “You really are a human who annoys me even more than Xue Wuyi.”
“Is that so?”Zhang Ruochen said.
“At least Xue Wuye would never put out a sword to injure a woman.”Princess Baili said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “So, he is Xue Wuye, and I am Zhang Ruochen.”
That oasis, which had been completely destroyed, had become ragged and there was not a single green vegetation to be seen except for the Sacred Eating Flower.
That Sacred Tree had also withered, with all of its leaves falling off, adding a bit of depression to the land.
“Swish!”
Zhang Ruochen flew down and placed Princess Bai Li on the ground.
Immediately, Zhang Ruochen dotted eighteen fingerprints on Princess Bai Li’s body, completely sealing the holy qi in her body.
Afterwards, Zhang Ruochen took the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword back into its scabbard, no longer paying any attention to her, and walked over to Little Black.
Little Black stood beneath the withered Saint Tree and was controlling the formation to confine the Saint Eating Flower.
The Sacred Flower Eater had already grown into a heavenly old vine, the root position was only as thick as the mouth of a bowl, and, a piece of scale had grown, as if it were a dragon’s scale, emitting a metallic lustre.
The top of the Eating Sacred Flower, the flower bone, was as huge as a face bowl, still not blooming, but emitting a gorgeous lustre, with a circle of holy light ripples escaping outwards.
The Sacred Eating Flower had already been born with spirituality and intelligence, knowing that Princess Baili had been captured, therefore, it was launching an attack, constantly rushing against the formation arranged by Xiao Hei.
“Rumble.”?
Even though, it hadn’t blossomed yet, the power that erupted from the Saint Eating Flower was extraordinary, breaking some of the formation inscriptions.
It wouldn’t take long before it should be able to break through the formation.
Zhang Ruochen took out the Mirror of Life and Death and prepared to invoke the Thousand Stripes Destruction Power to destroy the Sacred Flower Eater before it broke through the formation.
While controlling the formation, Little Black said, “The Sacred Eater Flower is an extraordinary battle-type plant that has not been seen much since ancient times. This Emperor believes that you should take it in and plant it in your Qi Sea. In this way, your battle power will increase greatly.”?
Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, “Are you punking me?”
The Sacred Eating Flower was capable of sucking all the holy power of a Saint cleanly, and Xiao Hei was actually asking him to plant the Sacred Eating Flower into his Qi Sea.
Wasn’t he asking him to seek his own death?
Princess Baili stood on the side, revealing an odd smile, also feeling that Little Black was pitting Zhang Ruochen.
She knew the power of the Sacred Eating Flower better than anyone else.
If, Zhang Ruochen really planted the Sacred Eating Flower into the Qi Sea, he would undoubtedly become its nutrient and would soon be sucked into a dry corpse.
Xiao Hei immediately shook his head and said, ”As long as you are able to take in the Sacred Eating Flower and feed it to its fullest, it will naturally stop absorbing your Sacred Qi, and instead, it will become your offensive means. After blossoming, the Sacred Eating Flower, even the Heaven Swallowing Demon Dragon would be quite scornful, aren’t you heartbroken?”
Princess Baili let out a light laugh, “How could the Sacred Eating Flower be something you guys can take in?”
No, Princess Bai Li and the Sacred Eating Flower were also only in a co-operative relationship, not a master-servant relationship.
Xiao Hei stared at Princess Bai Li and said, “Others cannot take it in, but the Heaven Receiving Divine Wood can.”?
The Heaven Receiving Divine Wood was the co-master of the plants under the sky, and any plant that saw it would give birth to a sense of awe.
Right now, the Sacred Eating Flower was merely a seedling, and if the Heaven Receiving Divine Wood stepped in, it would be enough to subdue it.
Zhang Ruochen pondered carefully, weighing the pros and cons, and in the end, he took out the Qiankun Divine Wood Diagram, intending to communicate with the Heaven Receiving Divine Wood before making a decision.
The Heaven Receiving Divine Wood had already produced some faint spiritual intelligence, and only Zhang Ruochen, could communicate with it briefly.
“Heaven Receiving Divine Wood?”
Princess Baili’s beautiful eyes revealed an extremely shocked look as she stared towards the Qiankun Divine Wood Diagram in Zhang Ruochen’s hand, could ……
