Zhang Ruochen had prepared for this, and just as the beautiful Ghost King pounced on him, he mobilised the masculine qi in his body and slapped his palm out, “Dragon Elephant Divine Furnace.”
As long as they were undead, even if they had reached the realm of the Ghost King, they would definitely be afraid of the masculine qi.
It was because of this that Zhang Ruochen was the one who executed the seventh palm of the Dragon Elephant Palm, and clashed hard with the beautiful Ghost King.
“Rumble!”
A circle of energy ripples, centred on one person and one ghost, spread out quickly.
Zhang Ruochen stumbled backwards and fell until he was thirty feet away before he could stabilise himself again.
Although, his arms were aching and cracking, most of his body was covered in cold ice, and on the surface of his skin, a crack even appeared. However, he didn’t feel frustrated, instead, he got excited.
To fight a hard blow with the Ghost King and and only receive some light injuries, what kind of brilliant battle record was this?
If it was in the Kunlun Realm, for a Ninth Order Half-Saint to be able to take a hard blow from a Saint’s full strength and not die, it would definitely be an incomparable honour, enough to be able to ascend to the Half-Saint Ranking by virtue of this battle.
What’s more, Zhang Ruochen was only at the Fish Dragon Ninth Transformation right now.
It wasn’t that he was already so powerful that he could be compared to the characters on the Half-Saint List. It could only be said that the Beautiful Ghost King was really quite weak, to the point that, he was no longer capable of killing Zhang Ruochen.
The ghost qi on the Beauty Ghost King’s body emitted a “giggling” sound, emitting a particle of sparks.
The masculine Qi released by the Dragon Image Prajna Palm was able to burn the ghost Qi on the Beauty Ghost King’s body, causing her to become weaker and weaker.
The Beauty Ghost King dispersed that masculine Qi and saw that Zhang Ruochen actually didn’t fall and was still alive, revealing an incredulous expression as she said, “Precisely powerful human boy, he hasn’t even cultivated his Sacred Soul yet, and he’s actually already so powerful.”
“You are wrong! It’s not that I’m powerful, but that you’re too weak.”
That exchange just now, although, Zhang Ruochen fell into an absolute disadvantage. However, it had instead fuelled the wariness in his heart, and an overwhelming aura erupted.
Even if it was a Ghost King, so what?
Take advantage of her illness and kill her.
The Dragon Elephant Divine Furnace was merely the seventh palm of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, which belonged to the lower grade of the Ghost Grade.
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that the reason why that strike just now was able to block the beautiful Ghost King was mainly because, the thirty-six meridians had reached the level of Quasi Sacred Meridians, causing the power of this palm to reach a level comparable to that of a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Martial Skill.
If he was able to successfully cultivate the eighth palm of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, he would be able to reach the Ghost Grade Middle Grade level, and the masculine energy in Zhang Ruochen’s body would be able to be increased by another ten times. At that time, how powerful could this one palm martial art explode?
Sword attacks, which had minimal effect on her, had already confirmed this earlier.
Only a powerful masculine Qi could suppress her.
“Since this is the case, I will take this opportunity to cultivate the eighth palm of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, the Thousand Hands Dragon Elephant. If I am able to cultivate it to a grand completion, I should be able to pose a great threat to her.”
Prior to this, Zhang Ruochen had, in fact, spent some time studying and cultivating the eighth palm in the Scroll World.
Only, at that time, in order to prepare for the Sword Discourse Conference, so, the vast majority of the time was spent cultivating the Sword Dao. Even when cultivating the Eighth Palm, it was only to hammer one’s physique through the power of the Palm Technique, and not too much effort was spent on it.
Even so, Zhang Ruochen had already cultivated the eighth palm, to the Minor Achievement realm, and was not far from the Great Achievement.
“It’s not that I’m strong, but that you’re too weak.”
When the beautiful Ghost King heard this, she naturally developed a surge of anger, a mere mole who hadn’t even cultivated a Saint Soul dared to underestimate her so much.
“Human brat, you have angered me.”
The beautiful Ghost King’s hands, pinched out odd fingerprints, and then, the Yin Fiend Qi between heaven and earth converged towards her in a steady stream.
In front of her, a huge humanoid skeleton that was over thirty metres tall coalesced. The skeleton’s mouth emitted a “barking” friction sound as it waved its fist and struck down at Zhang Ruochen.
The skeleton’s fist was even bigger than Zhang Ruochen’s body.
Even though the current Beautiful Ghost King was still much more powerful than Zhang Ruochen, he did not have a trace of fear, instead, he stomped his feet and took the initiative to meet the attack.
“Thousand Hand Dragon Elephant.”
Zhang Ruochen flew into mid-air, his arms unfolding.
Along with that, thick Saint Qi, which gushed out from his body in a steady stream, actually condensed into a huge flaming palm print, which slapped out forwards, striking against that white bone skeleton.
“Boom!”
Zhang Ruochen flew backwards and crashed back to the ground.
Both feet on the ground, stepping out a huge crater, the bones in his body, as if they were about to fall apart, aching.
Zhang Ruochen took out a bottle of Xuanwu Sacred Blood and directly poured an entire bottle of Sacred Blood, all of it, into his mouth.
Since he wanted to go crazy, he would go completely crazy for once.
Previously, Zhang Ruochen had refined the Xuanwu Sacred Blood drop by drop, and, for each drop, it would probably take several months.
Nowadays, his cultivation height, body strength, and meridian width were far greater than before, so since he had such strong capital, why not put up a fight?
Every drop of Xuanwu Sacred Blood that entered his abdomen was like a flame spreading out in his body.
Swallowing a bottle of Xuanwu Saint Blood, all of it into his abdomen, in an instant, Zhang Ruochen’s body was like turning into a blazing furnace, with strands of flames, gushing out from his pores, wrapping his body completely.
“Battle!”
Zhang Ruochen’s two eyeballs turned into two crimson fire beads, and with a loud roar, he once again struck out the “Thousand Hands Dragon Elephant” palm seal, attacking the huge white bone skeleton.
The power of the Dragon Elephant Palm was already the most rigid and yang, and with the aid of the Xuanwu Saint Blood, it made Zhang Ruochen as if he had inexhaustible power.
The Beautiful Ghost King was different, being eroded by the masculine energy, the ghostly aura on his body, was constantly diminishing.
Zhang Ruochen was getting crazier and crazier as he fought, unleashing the full strength in his body in a continuous stream, frantically attacking the White Bone Skeleton and the Beautiful Ghost King.
He didn’t know how many palm seals he had struck in a row, but finally, with a loud bang, the White Bone Skeleton collapsed to the ground, turning into a wisp of ghostly mist that dissipated into the air.
When the beautiful ghost king saw the incomparably fierce Zhang Ruochen, she only felt that, he was a complete different person from earlier.
At the very beginning, the feeling that Zhang Ruochen gave her was still gentle and refined. However, at this moment, a very domineering aura erupted from his body, causing her to feel a little bit of fear as well.
A Ghost King was actually showing fear towards a human of the Fish Dragon Realm?
“Thousand Hand Dragon Elephant.”
Underneath Zhang Ruochen’s feet, he stepped on a fire cloud and flew up in the air, slapping both his palms at the beautiful Ghost King at the same time. It appeared as if he was only striking out two palms, but in reality, it showed countless palm imprints.
The Beauty Ghost King let out a cold snort as a snow-white and slender jade hand condensed a powerful ghost qi and struck forward.
“Rumble!”
One person and one ghost, once again, clashed hard.
This time, Zhang Ruochen and the Beautiful Ghost King, simultaneously flew backwards.
The Beautiful Ghost King flew down to the top of the blood lake, and on the surface of the water, she stomped out six steps in a row, splashing a circle of water ripples, before she was able to completely dissolve the power of the palm imprint that Zhang Ruochen had struck.
“How is that possible?”
The Beautiful Ghost King lifted her hands, only to see that the two flawless jade hands were sprouting reddish flaming points of light.
In the centre of her palms, the pain from the burns was coming from her palms, and a power from the yang world was burning her ghost body. Before this, she had never encountered such power, it was simply the nemesis of the undead.
Even the Buddhist Qi struck by that one monk earlier had not been so powerful in restraining her.
“He’s right, it’s not that his power has become stronger, but, rather, my power has become weaker. What an abomination, how could I have met him when I was suffering from a heavy wound.”
The Beautiful Ghost King was extremely intelligent and wasn’t as muddled as other undead.
Thus, she was quite regretful at the moment, knowing that this young human was so difficult to deal with, she shouldn’t have taken the initiative to provoke him earlier.
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were very domineering and sharp, with an aura of “not returning until the enemy is broken”, his feet stepped on the water, and his upper body lunged forwards, once again attacking the beautiful Ghost King.
“Thousand Hand Dragon Elephant.”
“Thousand Hands Dragon Elephant.”
……
Zhang Ruochen struck out the eighth palm one after the other, comprehending the subtleties of it, and at the same time, he was also in the midst of the battle, allowing the power of the palm to rub off on his body quickly.
At first, the beautiful Ghost King was able to gain the upper hand, but after exchanging hundreds of palms in a row, she finally became a little unable to hold on, and immediately executed her body technique, pointing her toes on the water and drifting off into the distance.
Her body speed, naturally, was extremely fast, like a white lightning, rushing to the top of the small island in the centre of the blood lake.
“Where to escape?”
Zhang Ruochen roared out, as if he was an eagle spreading his wings, flying down from mid-air and striking the Dragon Elephant Palm once again, striking at the Beauty Ghost King’s vest.
Hearing this, the Beautiful Ghost King felt quite harsh, a Ghost King needed to flee in front of him?
“Damnable human.”
She turned around and coldly glared at Zhang Ruochen, “Since you are inclined to seek death, this King will fulfil you.”
The beautiful Ghost King stood straight at the edge of the island, her delicate and delicate body, looking exceptionally beautiful, as if it was an exquisite work of art. There was the location of her chest, which was incomparably full, forming a stunning silhouette.
Her two slender jades, pinched together, were placed at the position of her chest.
“Wow…”
In the centre of her glistening white eyebrows, a crescent-shaped blood-red mark emerged. Around the mark, there were also some strange lines, like a rune.
“The lines on her brow are somewhat similar to the lines on the Sun Moon Crystal Coffin. Could it be that she has some connection with the Sun Moon Crystal Coffin?”
Zhang Ruochen was slightly surprised when he saw the bizarre changes in the beautiful Ghost King.
Suddenly, the blood moon above the Blood Lake emitted bright moonlight that condensed into a pillar of light, connecting with the crescent moon mark on the Beauty Ghost King’s brow.
The Beauty Ghost King pointed out a finger, striking Zhang Ruochen’s palm.
With the help of the blood moon’s moonlight, the power she struck out was twice as powerful as before.
With double the power, it was entirely possible to turn the tables by seriously injuring Zhang Ruochen in an instant.
“Human brat, you are out of your depth when you make an enemy of this king.”The beautiful ghost king still had a cold face, only that a shallow smile surfaced surprisingly on her ice-cold countenance.
A female ghost actually had a time when she smiled so beautifully.
“Is that so?”
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen’s body erupted with a masculine aura that surpassed the previous tenfold, and his physical body was like turning into a red-hot humanoid iron block, emitting a scorching light like the blazing sun.
The eighth palm of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, the Thousand Hands Dragon Elephant, had finally reached the realm of great accomplishment.
