King Li Xian also knew that time was running out and wanted to capture Zhang Ruochen as soon as possible, so he did not say any more nonsense and directly struck out, striking the Kill Breaking Order downwards.
Each and every domain king level royal title in the Ministry of Warfare was personally rewarded by the Empress with a Kill Breaking Order.
Depending on the rank, the power of the Kill Breaking Order varied.
For example, the Wanxiang King and Wind Avian, who had once died under Zhang Ruochen’s sword, were merely lower ranked Domain Kings. The power of the Kill Breaking Order they possessed was naturally limited.
However, whether it was in the Overseas Battlefield or in the Market Realm Battlefield, King Li Xian had made great achievements in battle and had long been enthroned as a Medium Domain King.
The Order to Break the Killing that he had mastered was naturally different from that of other inferior domain kings, and was even more powerful.
With just a wave of his hand, the Order of Killing Breaking became very huge, as if it was the Great Seal of Turning the Heavens, condensing out monstrous killing aura and surging out.
“Rumble.”
The wind force carried the sound of thousands of armies killing each other, and the rolling black killing aura, transforming into human and beastly figures, swept down the sky and the earth.
If, Zhang Ruochen was still a First Order Half-Saint, I’m afraid that he would truly be unable to block this strike.
Of course, even after breaking through to Second Order Half-Saint, Zhang Ruochen’s face was quite condensed without a hint of relief.
The Yang Gang Qi and Saint Qi operated crazily within his body, causing thousands of flames to gush out from his pores.
“Dragon Elephant Divine Furnace.”
Zhang Ruochen’s body was like a burning furnace, causing the soil beneath his feet to melt and turn into drops of red-coloured magma.
A golden hand seal was struck upwards.
It could be seen that there was a dragon and an elephant coiled in the centre of the handprint.
The Order of Broken Killing collided with Zhang Ruochen’s handprint, emitting an ear-splitting sound, and a circle of sound waves visible to the naked eye surged out in a rush, impacting all the oak trees on the mountain and breaking them.
However, when the sound wave crashed into the Sikong Zen Courtyard, in the Zen Courtyard, a single Buddhist text actually flew out, forming a golden wall of words that blocked the force.
Zhang Ruochen retreated a dozen feet in a row before the power of the Kill Breaking Order was dissolved and he exhaled a long breath.
The power of a Seventh Order Half-Saint was truly quite powerful, and with his current cultivation level, it still seemed quite a stretch to engage a figure of that realm.
King Li Xian stared deeply towards Sikong Zhenyuan, revealing a scornful expression.
Just now, the shockwave that erupted from the strike he exchanged with Zhang Ruochen was enough to suppress a low ranked Half-Saint. Who would have thought that it would be blocked by a layer of Buddhist text.
I’m afraid that there is a high level person living in seclusion here.
If they continued to fight outside the Zen Garden, once they angered the hidden cultivator inside, they would definitely be in big trouble.
King Li Xian stared towards Zhang Ruochen and said, “Zhang Ruochen, how can we go elsewhere to fight again?”
“I’m afraid it’s no longer possible to go elsewhere.”
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze stared into the distance. Only to see that there was a dark red blood cloud in the eastern sky that was surging in rapidly.
King Li Xian was also aware of it and immediately turned around, a pair of eyes burning with flames, and looked over in the direction of the blood cloud.
“The Immortal Blood Clan.”
King Li Xian revealed a solemn expression and became a little nervous.
How could an Immortal Blood Race come here?
Moreover, that Immortal Blood Clan had a pair of silver flesh wings growing on their backs, not like a normal Immortal Blood Clan General.
The second prince of the Immortal Blood Race stood at the centre of the blood clouds, a pair of large silver wings that illuminated the dark night by a few points, a sneer on his face, “There are actually people from the Ministry of War, comic relief, but we should clear it out first.”
“What a big mouth.”
Holding the Order of Killing Breaking in one hand and lifting his halberd in the other, King Li Xian rode on the back of the Yiyi Scale Beast and rushed straight into the blood mist, fighting with the Second Prince of the Immortal Blood Race.
The Ministry of War and the Undying Blood Clan are supposed to be arch rivals, so there is nothing to say, as long as they meet, they will directly kill each other.
“Boom boom.”
A loud crashing sound came out from the blood mist, causing the aura of heaven and earth to tremble violently.
The battle did not last long, and the Yiyi Scale Beast, the mount of King Li Xian, let out a miserable cry.
Its huge body was cleaved in half by the Second Prince of the Immortal Blood Race with a sword, falling down from mid-air.
A moment later, the Undying Blood Race’s Second Prince’s bloody sword pierced through King Li Xian’s chest.
“Haha! A seventh-ranked Half-Saint of the Ministry of War, how come he’s so weak?”
The Second Prince laughed above, revealing his fangs and biting down on King Li Xian’s carotid aorta, sucking the blood from King Li Xian’s body.
King Li Xian’s entire body trembled as a loud roar came from his throat and he took out a roll of holy orders, trying to break free.
However, the bloody sword penetrated his body, making it impossible for him to escape.
Gradually, King Li Xian’s body, became more and more dried up, his skin turning deathly grey, completely losing its life.
“Snap!”
The Second Prince crushed King Li Xian’s body into a mass of broken armour and cinders, tossing it casually and spilling it into the air.
“The blood of a Seventh Order Half-Saint, it’s really delicious, as long as I absorb his blood completely, my realm, I should be able to reach the peak of the Sixth Order Half-Saint.”The Second Prince took out a white gauze and dried the blood on his lips.
Outside the Sikong Zen Courtyard, the two of them, Zhao Yue and Pu Yuelin, had long since been frightened to the point where their livers and gall bled, and their legs couldn’t help but tremble.
Li Xian Wang in the entire Yuanfu Ministry of War, is also able to rank into the top ten big names, even those patriarchs and heads of families to see him, also have to be afraid of three times.
However, …… such a mighty bigwig of the Ministry of War who had shaken one side of the country had died in front of them. Could they be able to not feel fear?
King Li Xian had already died, so how could that Immortal Blood Clan spare the two of them?
However, the Second Prince did not look squarely at them, his gaze was fixed on Zhang Ruochen’s body as he laughed, ”Zhang Ruochen, your cultivation is not good, but your ability to escape is not small, so you have made it easy for this Emperor to find you. How about …… you make a guess, can you still escape this time?”
Zhang Ruochen took out the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and cupped it in his hand, looking at the cold blade, saying, “Why should I run away? Let’s battle it out! It’s not certain who will lose and who will win.”
The Second Prince’s gaze condensed as he took a closer look at Zhang Ruochen and said, “No wonder he dares to speak such big words, so it turns out that he has broken through to the Second Stage Half-Saint. This Emperor will come and take a look to see just how much you have grown?”
“Wow.”
The second prince’s two fingers pinched into a sword trick, and then, the blood sword flew out, spinning around his body without stopping, and at the same time, accelerating.
The speed of the blood sword, reached twenty times the speed of sound, and around the Second Prince, a huge vortex of wind energy formed.
At the same time, the Blood Sword flew out, striking at Zhang Ruochen outside the Sikong Zen Courtyard.
With such a fast sword, not to mention Zhang Ruochen, even a Ninth Order Half-Saint would not be able to dodge it.
The blood sword carried a speed of twenty times the speed of sound, and the power that erupted out of it was even more terrifying, and it would be difficult for an ordinary seventh rank Half Saint to block it.
Earlier, the Second Prince had used this move to pierce through King Li Xian’s body with a single blow of his sword, thus winning the battle.
Within the pupils of Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, the tip of the bloody sword became clearer and clearer.
Without doing any thinking at all, the sword intent in his body automatically surged out, and as if by instinct, Zhang Ruochen lifted the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword and stabbed forward.
“Boom.”
The tips of the two swords collided together.
There were dense sword qi that flew out in all directions.
The powerful force contained on the blood sword was transmitted to Zhang Ruochen’s palm through the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, shocking his five fingers with pain and numbness.
Zhang Ruochen’s body twisted a little, transferring that force, into the ground.
In the next moment, the earth beneath his feet directly shattered and opened up, collapsing downwards and transforming into a large pit with a diameter of ten feet.
Even though Zhang Ruochen had suffered some minor injuries, he had ultimately blocked the Second Prince’s sword.
The Second Prince was slightly surprised, how could Zhang Ruochen be able to block a sword that even a Seventh Order Half-Saint could not block?
He simply didn’t believe that Zhang Ruochen’s strength could be on par with a Seventh Order Half-Saint.
He only thought that it was because Zhang Ruochen’s Sword Dao Realm was superior and he had used trickery to dissolve the power of the blood sword.
“Winning with dexterity is but a mere fluke. Winning with strength is the Way.”The Second Prince snorted coldly and waved his arm, wanting to take back the Blood Sword.
How would Zhang Ruochen let him succeed, his finger pointed forwards and a single word came out of his mouth, “Break.”?Above the Blood Sword, the space collapsed inwards, transforming into a broken void space that directly swallowed the Blood Sword.
The Blood Sword, which was already quite close to a Thousand Stripe Saint Weapon, was the twenty-fourth ranked battle weapon in the Hundred Stripe Saint Weapon Spectrum, so naturally, it was extremely precious.
Moreover, the Second Prince had cultivated the Way of the Sword since he was a child, and had already refined the Blood Sword into the sword of his destiny. If he lost the Blood Sword, he was afraid that he would have to lose 30% of his battle power.
“Not good, carelessness!”
The Second Prince’s face changed wildly as he simultaneously pinched out sword techniques with both hands, wanting to control the Blood Sword to escape from the void space opened by Zhang Ruochen.
Earlier, he had only thought that he would take Zhang Ruochen down as soon as possible, seize the Monstrous Sword, and send it to the Underworld Sword Graveyard. However, he had forgotten that Zhang Ruochen was able to mobilise spatial power, enough to devour the Blood Sword.
The metaphysical nature of spatial power was far beyond the Second Prince’s imagination, and it was simply not something that he could fight against.
The Blood Sword was eventually swallowed by the void space, and a moment later, the entire space, returned to its original form.
Zhang Ruochen appeared breezy, smiled, and said, “Powerful without dexterity, what’s the difference between that and a reckless man?”
The Second Prince’s face, became very fierce, revealing eyes as if he wanted to eat Zhang Ruochen, saying, “Since childhood, no one has been able to also go against this Prince. Anyone who dared to go against this Emperor’s son, all of them have already turned into dead people.”
“Is that so? Looks like I will be an exception.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Being able to enrage the Second Prince was a success.
It was true that a person in a state of rage was able to exert twelve percent of his power, but it would also reveal more cracks.
Just by catching a single break, Zhang Ruochen would be able to kill him.
“Roar!”
The Second Prince roared harshly, spreading his hands out, and the voluminous blood clouds actually condensed into a gigantic mythical beast silhouette, occupying one-third of the sky and emitting a huge savage beast aura.
