Huang Shenyi flicked the dust on his robes, swept a glance at Luo Shuihan and Duanmu Xingling on the opposite side of the room, and said in a cold craggy manner, “To actually be able to receive a palm from me, you two, you’re still somewhat capable. However, I’m afraid that you’re not even close if you presume to fight me.”
Duanmu Xingling laughed and said, “Is that so? Whether it’s really far off or not, you’ll only know after the battle.”
“Swish!”
Duanmu Xingling transformed into a ghostly shadow and rushed out, leaving seven shadows in a row on the ground.
When the seventh shadow came to a stop, she happened to be standing in mid-air three feet off the ground, her five fingers coming together and turning into a palm blade, carrying an ice-cold force as she slashed at Huang Shenyi’s neck.
Duanmu Xingling’s speed seemed to have been as fast as it could be, however, Huang Shenyi struck even faster.
No one could see how he made his move, only to hear a “bang” sound, Duanmu Xingling directly flew out.
Landing on the ground, Duanmu Xingling took more than ten steps back in a row, his face was in some pain, the palm of his left hand was covering the location of his lower abdomen, a thread of blood was hanging from the corner of his mouth, and his face was as pale as paper.
“Receiving a move from me actually didn’t die, somewhat interesting.”
The pupils in Huang Shenyi’s eyes narrowed to a point.
Afterwards, he lunged forwards, one of his palms stretched out, and as his palm struck out, dozens of wind blades flew out from his palm.
Each of the wind blades transformed into the form of a two-metre tall white bone skeleton, carrying a ghastly wind, holding a long sword, and emitting a ghostly cry-like whistling sound.
From afar, the Yellow Divine Palm Power was actually forming a ghostly army.
A ghost grade lower grade martial skill, the Nine Ghostly Yin Wind Palm.
It could be said that until this moment, Huang Shenyi was not considered truly serious.
“What a powerful Huang Shenyi, no wonder he claimed earlier that he could defeat the second on the Heavenly Ranking, Hua Li, within three moves. With my current strength, it’s simply impossible for me to block this palm of his.”
Just now, Duanmu Xingling had already been seriously injured by Huang Shenyi, and facing the Nine Netherworlds Yin Wind Palm that came at her, she didn’t dare to take it hard at all, so she could only keep retreating backwards.
In her heart, she was quite angry, the Holy Maiden of the Moon Worshipping God Sect was actually forced to retreat by a Star Envoy of the Black Market First Class Hall, if it was spread out, wouldn’t her reputation be swept away?
Luo Shuihan and Huang Yichen immediately rushed over and stood in a line with Duanmu Xingling.
“Nine Quarters of Luo Water, a flowing goblet.”
Luo Shuihan took a step forward and stood in the forefront position. Every inch of her body flowed with golden light, and her slender arms, following a certain arcane trajectory, drew the Nine Turns of Luo Shui, forming a river of true qi that flew in mid-air.
Duanmu Xingling and Huang Yichen also each struck out their own martial arts to fend off Huang Shenyi’s palm force.
“Boom!”
After another hard palm fight, Huang Shenyi still had the absolute upper hand, knocking Luo Shuihan, Duanmu Xingling, and Huang Yinduan back.
Huang Shenyi didn’t continue to strike and stared Avray at Luo Shuihan, saying, “You’re that Saint Body of the Luo Sacred Sect Valve, Luo Shuihan?”
Luo Shuihan said, “That’s right.”
Huang Shenyi nodded and said, “No wonder you were able to block my palm, so it turns out that you’re the Golden Light Sacred Body amongst the six kings of the new generation of the Eastern Domain. Just as well! For the sake of senior Luo Xu, today, I will spare her from death.”
Afterwards, Huang Shenyi’s gaze, stared at Huang Yichen, and coldly said, “County Master Yichen, Mister Huang can spare you today, but, don’t forget about our appointment. Within half a month, if you don’t show up at the Heavenly Battle Stage, you are looking down on Mister Huang. When Mister Huang breaks through to the Fish Dragon Realm, he’ll have no choice but to go to the Thousand Waters County Kingdom and challenge the Thousand Waters County King. Lol.”
After saying this, Huang Shenyi let out a gloomy laugh and left straight away.
“What an arrogant fellow.”Duanmu Xingling pouted her lips and snorted coldly.
Luo Shuihan said, “Indeed, he is arrogant, but his strength is really high and scary. It is said that he is also a formidable array master, and his spiritual power has already broken through to the fortieth rank. If he had the assistance of a formation, his strength, would be even more terrifying. When he fought us earlier, he used at most 30% of his power.”
“Surprisingly that strong.”Huang Yichen’s brows furrowed.
Just the strength that Huang Shenyi had just displayed already gave Huang Yichen a mountainous feeling, as if the other party only needed to stretch out a finger to press her to death.
Luo Shuihan, however, said that he, had only exerted less than 30% of his power.
If it was, how strong would he have to be if he went all out?
Duanmu Xingling was a bit unconvinced and muttered in a low voice, “If I break through to the great circle of the Heavenly Extremity Realm, I will definitely be able to fight him.”
“Starling, what are you talking about?”Huang Yichen asked.
Duanmu Xingling immediately revealed a sweet smile, hugged Huang Yichen’s arm and laughed, “I’m saying, Sister Dust, since Huang Shenyi is so strong, you shouldn’t go and fight against him. Once you ascend the Heavenly Battle Stage, I’m afraid that you’ll already die under his palm before you can admit defeat.”
Luo Shuihan also said, “Star Spirit is right, with your current strength, fighting against Huang Shenyi is tantamount to sending yourself to death.”
Huang Yichen looked very serious and shook his head, saying, “Huang Shenyi is a ruthless and vicious person, if I don’t agree to fight him, he will definitely go to the Thousand Waters County Kingdom to deal with Father and the clansmen of the royal family. He is forcing me, I have to fight him.”
With Huang Shenyi’s cultivation, even if he broke through to the Fish Dragon Realm, he would definitely not be a match for the Thousand Waters County King. However, a strong person like Huang Shenyi, moreover, had the identity of the Black Market One Piece Hall’s Seven Deadly Star Envoy. The destructive power he could cause was unimaginable.
Duanmu Xingling said, ”He is not forcing you to fight him, but rather forcing Zhang Ruochen to show himself. The person he really wants to kill has always been Zhang Ruochen. Now, one can only hope that Zhang Ruochen will return from the Wood Essence Market Realm sooner. Perhaps, he is the only one who can compete with Huang Shenyi.”
Luo Shuihan was a little worried, saying, “Huang Shenyi himself is a rare talent that comes along once in a hundred years, and he has been settling in the Great Circle of the Heavenly Extremity Realm for many years, so even if Zhang Ruochen rushes back, he will most likely not be a match for him.”
“Then there’s no other way, this battle must be faced by him, whoever called him Sister Dust’s fiancé.”Duanmu Xingling’s finger stroked his chin, and in his eyes, a bright light flowed out as he said, “It seems that I have to make a trip to the Wood Essence Ruin Realm to tell him the news in advance.”
Wood Essence Market Realm, Blackwood Plain.
Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged on the top of a mountain peak, his hands resting on the position of his abdomen, and between his palms, a fist-sized piece of Purple Cloud Sinking Incense Wood was suspended.
Wisps of True Qi, surging out from his palms, collided with each other, refining the Purple Cloud Sinking Incense Wood into grains of wood powder.
The pores in his palm formed a suction force that absorbed the wood powder and entered his body.
“Back then, when I cultivated into the Water Spirit Treasure Body, I refined a total of nine jin and nine taels of Black Water Glazed Crystals, in order to successfully cultivate the Wood Spirit Treasure Body, it is estimated that I would need to refine nine jin and nine taels of Purple Cloud Sinking Incense Wood as well.”
After the recent period of cultivation, Zhang Ruochen had already refined nine jin and six taels of Purple Cloud Sunken Fragrant Wood, and was getting closer and closer to cultivating into the Wood Spirit Treasure Body.
However, the closer he got to success, the more difficult it was to absorb the Purple Cloud Sunken Incense Wood. Absorbing a single grain of wood powder into the body, that burst of energy erupted out, it was almost like a heaven-shaking thunderbolt exploding, causing the body to inflict great trauma.
The physical body, constantly damaged and healed.
Zhang Ruochen refined the Purple Cloud Sinking Incense Wood while swallowing the Wood Spirit Red Stillwater, enduring pain that was unbearable to normal people, in his pores, blood beads dripped, and his skin cracked with blood lines.
After a day, he had only refined one or two pieces of Purple Cloud Sinking Incense Wood. However, the clothes on his body had completely turned into bloody clothes.
After recovering for the night, the next day, Zhang Ruochen continued to start refining again.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen covered in blood, Ao Xin Yan bit her lips tightly, very intolerant, and was very tempted to rush up and advise Zhang Ruochen not to be in a hurry, and to wait until he broke through the Great Circle of the Heavenly Extremity Realm, then it would not be too late to cultivate the Wood Spirit Treasure Body.
However, Little Black stopped her and said, ”Right now, Zhang Ruochen is cultivating the Wood Spirit and Water Spirit Dual Spirit Treasure Body, which is several times tougher than just cultivating the Water Spirit Treasure Body. In the future, he will also have to fuse the five Five Elements Spiritual Treasures and cultivate the Five Elements Chaotic Body. Without great perseverance, it would simply be impossible to successfully cultivate the Five Elements Chaotic Body. He is not just cultivating the Dual Spirit Treasure Body, he is also sharpening his will. For you to go and persuade him now would be tantamount to harming him.”
“Originally.”
Ao Xin Yan resumed her seat and looked at Zhang Ruochen from afar, secretly saying in her heart, “No wonder he has such a high cultivation level at such a young age, it’s true that it’s not just a simple matter of having high natural talent… I can’t be lazy either, or else, I’ll only be further and further away from him in the future.
Thinking of this, Ao Xin Yan took out the Purple Cloud Incense Wood that Zhang Ruochen had handed over to her some time ago and began to refine it.
She also wanted to cultivate the “Dual Spirit Treasure Body”.
With the Dual Spirit Treasure Body and the Half-Dragon Body, her strength would definitely increase greatly.
For five days in a row, Zhang Ruochen finally refined nine catties and nine taels of Purple Cloud Incense Wood, cultivating into a Water Spirit and Wood Spirit “Dual Spirit Treasure Body”.
“Finally successful!”
Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes and took a deep breath, his mood quite pleasant.
He stood up and walked to the edge of the cliff, and began to communicate with the wood attribute aura between heaven and earth.
Subsequently, one of his fingers, pointed out, and the true qi at his fingertips connected with the wood attribute aura, forming a tree root-like true qi ripple.
Gradually, the true qi ripples became more and more solid, and even transformed into real wooden tree roots, drilling into the soil and rocks, going deep inside the cliff wall.
“Giggle!”
The stone cracks of the cliff wall immediately grew a tiny shoot, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, sprouting grass blades, flower bones, and finally blossoming into beautiful purple and red flowers.
The entire cliff, and even the entire mountain peak, was completely transformed into a sea of flowers. In the air, a strong fragrance of flowers filled the air.
Seeing this scene, Ao Xin Yan and the Orange Moon Star Envoy were both astonished in their hearts, as if they had seen a legendary holy miracle.
This kind of arcane power, wasn’t it a means that only Saints had?
“What a beautiful flower, it smells so good.”
Ao Xin Yan took a deep breath, revealing an intoxicated look as she excitedly said, “Group Leader, could it be that cultivating into the Wood Spirit Treasure Body will make a dead tree spring, it will be able to move flowers and connect them to trees, it will be able to instantly create a vibrant sea of flowers, jungles, and grasslands?”
