Outside the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo, the sound of breaking winds constantly resounded as a powerful figure rushed to this place.
Zhang Ruochen, who was ranked number one on The Saints’ Merit List, was actually from the Broad Cold Realm, surprising many people.
After all, only the strong realms had the most powerful inheritances, the most precious cultivation resources, and could cultivate the top geniuses. It was undoubtedly as difficult as climbing into the sky for cultivators from weaker realms to make a mark on The Saint’s Merit List.
Therefore, almost all of the beings that ranked in the top 10,000 on the Sacred One’s Merit List were all encompassed by the great worlds that ranked in the top 1,000.
“I’ve long heard some rumours that that Zhang Ruochen was able to ascend to the number one spot on the Sage Merit Ranking purely by luck. There are also those who say that he only obtained a large amount of merit values by collaborating with the Rakshasa Princess.”
“I know that merit value battle in the Shatuo Seven Realms, Zhang Ruochen standing out inside several weak realms is not considered much of a skill, and perhaps the true strength is such that he can’t even make it into the top 10,000 of the Sage’s Merit Value List.”
“We should be able to see the difference today, if Zhang Ruochen is able to take down the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo, then his strength will never be weaker than those Divine Sons and Divine Daughters of the strong realms, and he will be able to enter the top 10,000 of the Saints’ Merit List.”
……………… All the
cultivators were talking.
They each used their own means to look out over the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo, endeavouring to see the battle inside the dojo.
However, the divine light emanating from the Laurel Tree made the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo appear to be a vast expanse, and all that could be heard was the ear-splitting sounds of battle, and all that could be seen was a holy aura being leaked out.
Su Jing stood dozens of miles away from the Mirror Fragrance Mountain dojo, holding a breath in his belly, and that heart that had been refined over thousands of years was incredibly tense at the moment.
The Moon God had once said, “Since I’ve returned, the Broad Cold Realm is going to re-emerge and raise the world’s attention once again.”
The Moon God valued Zhang Ruochen so much, perhaps in her eyes, Zhang Ruochen was a sharp blade to make the Guanghan Realm rise again. Today’s battle appeared to be crucial.
If it was successful, it would undoubtedly be a ray of light that would usher in a new life for the Guanghan Realm.
If it failed, the Guanghan Realm would definitely continue to be immersed in darkness, and it would be difficult to have any hope of rising again.
Looking at history, those weak realms that were able to rise and prosper not only needed a powerful god, but also needed to give birth to an epoch-making son of heaven, leading the young cultivators of the entire world to advance in unison and kill a new sky.
Was Zhang Ruochen that epoch-making son of heaven?
In the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo, Zhang Ruochen was wearing the Hundred Saints Blood Armour, holding the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword in one hand and grasping the Yi Emperor Bone Staff in the other, as if he was a world-defying god of killing, he attacked and killed straight towards the White Anaconda.
To kill, one should kill the strongest one first.
“Boom boom.”
The White Anaconda mobilised the Truth Rule and continuously struck out Saint Arts, trying to block Zhang Ruochen’s footsteps.
However, after blocking Zhang Ruochen’s seven swords in a row, all the protective treasures on his body were used up, and he was even countered by being seriously injured, with one of his arms being chopped off and crashing to the ground.
“If it wasn’t for the suppression of the equality of all living beings, I would have already suppressed you long ago when I used my Sacred Conformity.” The white boa roared out.
“Even if there was no Equality of Beings, and you utilised the Sacred Conformity, I would still behead you.”
Zhang Ruochen stepped forward, not using the Time Sword Technique or swallowing the Dragon Spirit Crazy Bull Wine, but preparing to sharpen his Sword Eight through this battle.
After all, he was still stuck at the first level of the Sword Eight realm, and only by constantly applying it while fighting, and in applying it, realising the true meaning of the Sword Dao, would he be able to cultivate faster.
“Zhang Ruochen, don’t be wild, the Cloud Realm is full of strong people and hidden dragons and crouching tigers, it’s not something you can take on alone.”
A dozen figures rushed over in a row, each displaying their own means and joining forces to attack Zhang Ruochen.
Each one was a strong person, and everyone was like a teenage great saint.
The white boa revealed a joyful expression as it took out a jade vase and swallowed a mouthful of Life Saint Liquid, and with that, the severed arm grew back.
“Zhang Ruochen, take a look behind you, those cultivators from your Guanghan Realm are under siege by seventeen Cloud Realm Heavenly Pride, and will soon turn into a corpse. So what if you’re even stronger, can you protect them?”
As White Boa uttered these words, he also communicated with the two Cloud Realm cultivators standing behind him, preparing to join hands to activate the Mirror Image Sacred Sword in a bid to stir up the Second Flare Perfection power.
As long as Zhang Ruochen was distracted to go to the rescue of those few Guanghan Realm cultivators, they would explode with a thunderous strike, leaving Zhang Ruochen dead without a burial place.
The two Cloud Realm cultivators standing behind the White Boa were both in a stealthy state, shadowless and invisible, even their aura was if anything.
However, to White Anaconda’s disappointment, Zhang Ruochen had no intention of going to his aid at all, instead releasing a large swathe of Pure Destruction Divine Flame, wrapping up the dozen or so Cloud Realm powerhouses that had surrounded him, all of which were wrapped up in it.
“Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning.”
“Star, moon, and haze.”
Zhang Ruochen’s mouth chanted, his feet stepping in marvellous steps, his figure as ghostly as a ghost, and as the battle sword in his hand swung up, the greater half of the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo became thunderous with electricity, and the winds howled furiously.
At this moment, he was in the midst of battle, comprehending the Sword Emperor Snow Red Dust’s Sword Eight Penumbra left behind.
Xue Hong dust’s sword eight, is summarised into “wind, rain, thunder, electricity, star, moon, haze, light” eight words, like the general outline of the sword road, only need to understand through some of the skin, with the sword swing, can also cause heaven and earth to change colour of the might.
A Cloud Realm powerhouse, grasping a Ten Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifact level cauldron, descended from the sky as if he was grasping a huge mountain, and blasted down towards Zhang Ruochen.
“The haze rushes to the heavens.”
The Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword flew out directly from Zhang Ruochen’s hand and blasted above that cauldron with a bang, a powerful force that threw the cauldron out.
The Cloud Realm powerhouse was struck by the powerful Xia Light Sword Qi, and his body resounded with the sound of “Boom Boom Boom” as a protective talisman turned into pieces.
The Cloud Realm powerhouse was so scared that his soul almost flew away.
“Surprisingly this strong?”
In his mind, this thought had just surfaced when Zhang Ruochen had already appeared behind him, grasping the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and slashing downwards.
Immediately, lightning thundered and winds were created on all sides.
“Plop.”
A large amount of blood, spilled down from mid-air.
At the same time, there were also pieces of mangled flesh and blood corpses that were falling downwards.
After slashing that Cloud Realm powerhouse with a sword, Zhang Ruochen struck again, attacking another person. His speed was incredibly fast, and even when he was surrounded by dozens of experts, he appeared to be able to take the initiative with ease.
“The stars and moon come together.”
“Wind like a dragon, rain like a sword.”
…… Zhang
Ruochen kept experimenting with the Sword Eight’s intent, becoming more and more coherent, each move had the power to manipulate the weather of the heavens and the earth, and also borrowed the power of the heavens and the earth, making the swordsmanship even more powerful and ferocious.
In a few breaths of exchange, he actually killed three more Heaven’s Pride of the Cloud Realm.
The cultivators who had surrounded him had not even touched the corners of his clothes.
This time, it scared the Cloud Realm’s powerhouses to death, finally realising the gap between them and Zhang Ruochen. They were not fools and knew very well that if they continued fighting like this, they would definitely be killed cleanly by Zhang Ruochen.
How could White Anaconda not expect that Zhang Ruochen was so powerful.
When his eyes, looked over towards another battlefield, he was even more shocked.
A total of seventeen Cloud Realm powerhouses had gone to besiege five Kunlun Realm cultivators, and surprisingly, five of them had already fallen, all of them having been killed by a sword strike through their Qi Seas.
The person who had struck was a woman dressed in purple electric clothes, and the sword in her hand seemed even more terrifying than Zhang Ruochen’s.
Was this still the Guanghan Realm that was so casually bullied before?
“World Hidden Insects, Qi Hidden Insects, join me in catalysing the Mirror Image Sacred Sword, strike now and behead Zhang Ruochen first.”
White Anaconda no longer bothered to wait for the right moment, and with the two powerhouses invisible behind him, he simultaneously injected holy power into the Mirror Image Holy Sword. As the inscriptions on the body of the sword continued to emerge, the first circle of holy power light mist emerged.
“Wow–” When
in the sword body, a full twenty thousand inscriptions were catalysed, the second circle of holy power light mist emerged.
The Second Yew Perfection power filled the Mirror Fragrance Cliff dojo, and, that power also rushed out of the dojo, spreading all the way to hundreds of miles away. There wasn’t a single Saint cultivator who had come to watch the spectacle that wasn’t moved by it.
“Even the Second Flare Ten Thousand Lines Saint Artifact was used, this battle for supremacy is really intense enough.”
“From this, it can be seen that Zhang Ruochen’s strength is still very strong, to have forced the White Boa to such an extent.”
Second Yew Perfection power was, generally speaking, a power that could only be activated by a Saint King.
Moreover, a normal one-step Saint King could not control that kind of power.
Even for the Celestial Pride on the Saint Merit List, not many of them were able to stir up the Second Yao Perfection Power on their own, and needed to join forces with other cultivators.
Using the Second Yew Perfection power and using it against beings below Saint Kings was a complete crushing.
Zhang Ruochen had just pierced through the heart of an Insect Race cultivator with his sword when he sensed the majestic Saint Might coming from behind him, and his eyes not only looked askance.
“Surprisingly, you’re still not fleeing, do you think that you can kill me by stirring up the power of Second Flare Perfection?”
Zhang Ruochen took out the Purple Divine Stone and cupped it in his hand, mobilising his Saint Qi to continuously inject it in, and gradually, the Purple Divine Stone became more and more gigantic, transforming into an imposing divine mountain.
It was important to know that the Purple God Stone was tempered from a purple star next to a black hole, and according to Ling Xiu, it was even a part of the body of a Stone Race Deity, which naturally shrouded it in a layer of, incomparably mysterious colours.
“Zhang Ruochen, your time to die has come!”
With all his strength, the White Boa controlled the Mirror Image Sacred Sword, dragging out a long river of sword qi and swinging it towards Zhang Ruochen.
However, just as he swung out his sword, a huge purple divine mountain collapsed and pressed down, and the power was simply unrivalled.
“No……,” the white
boa cried out.
The World Hidden Insects and Qi Hidden Insects that stood behind the White Boa were also scared out of their wits and immediately broke out of their stealthy state, transforming into two flying insects the size of points of light, wanting to escape.
“Rumble.”
The purple divine mountain crushed down, not only suppressing the Mirror Image Sacred Sword, but also beating the white boa into sinking into the ground, his flesh turning into bloody mud. Even his Saint Soul was crushed into pieces by the mysterious power contained in the purple divine mountain.
The two cryptic insects didn’t escape and were suppressed by the purple divine mountain, the holy light on their bodies getting dimmer and dimmer, and finally turning into two pinpoint-sized insect corpses.
In just one strike, it was the suppression of three Saint realm powerhouses.
The Cloud Realm cultivators that were still alive, where would they still want to strike, all of them were scared out of their wits and fell backwards.
However, they didn’t choose to flee, their gazes stared in unison towards the depths of the Laurel Forest, as if they were expecting something?
“Boom.”
A golden wave of Saint Qi surged out from the depths of the Laurel Forest, shocking Zhang Ruochen to the point that he was unsteady on his feet and took several steps backwards.
“Surprisingly, there is a Saint King level powerhouse staying at the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo.”
A strange look flashed across Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, and although he was a little surprised, he was fearless.
After all, with the “Equality of All Beings” turned on, a Saint King’s realm was suppressed to the level of a half-step Saint King, which meant that he had an advantage in terms of battle experience, Saint Dao perception, Saint Technique usage, and Truth Rules.
In a real battle, Zhang Ruochen might not necessarily lose if he encountered a more powerful Saint King.
