Chapter 1422 - Priest Competition (1/2)

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

A deity should not be offended.

This was a deep-rooted view in all beings.

Now, they had to offend a deity in order to fight for the priest’s position. This made the hearts of all the Saints tremble.

But Zhang Ruochen didn’t feel any hesitation. With a Luan and phoenix’s shadow appearing under his feet, he rushed out quickly.

The remaining 11 True Saints froze. Then they also used their fastest speed to charge toward Guanghan Divine Palace.

“That saint sword is mine. No one can fight with me.”

Ji Kongpo’s feet stepped on two Kun shadows. His speed was actually faster than Zhang Ruochen and soon surpa.s.sed him.

In addition, Su Qingling and Ling Mi were extremely fast too. They left later but arrived sooner and were almost at the same level as Ji Kongpo.

After all, Zhang Ruochen was only in the beginning of the Heaven Pa.s.s Realm. Compared to the top prides of Guanghan Field, he had no advantage in speed.

“Even some guy from the Heaven Pa.s.s Realm wants to fight for the priest position? Get out of the way. Don’t block me.”

There was a muscular three-meter-tall man behind Zhang Ruochen. He charged over, legs pus.h.i.+ng powerfully. He sped up greatly and sent out a blue-green metal fist, punching Zhang Ruochen’s back.

Before the metal fist arrived, a terrible sound of wind and thunder entered Zhang Ruochen’s ears.

This muscular guy wasn’t a human but a Taigu Remain. Not only was his physical body a Saint, but he was also filled with Chaotic Qi.

More importantly, he’d reached the pinnacle of the True Saint Realm.

If a Heaven Pa.s.s Saint were hit by his fist, he’d be heavily injured or even dead.

Just then, Zhang Ruochen’s body twisted. He turned back and formed a fist print with his hands, blocking behind him.

Boom!

The fist strength sent Zhang Ruochen barreling toward Guanghan Divine Palace. He arrived at the palace even before Ji Kongpo, Ling Mi and Su Qingling.

“He could actually block my punch with half of my strength. No wonder that guy dares to get into this. He does have some abilities.” That muscular guy was a bit dazed.

The Saints who weren’t partic.i.p.ating in the priest compet.i.tion were also shocked.

“The Red-Eyed Blue Wolf can fight with a beginner Absolute Saint for a long while without losing. It’s a bit unbelievable for a Heaven Pa.s.s Saint to take his punch.”

“How come I feel like the Red-Eyed Blue Wolf is on his side? That punch was clearly to help bring him to the Guanghan Divine Palace, hehe.”

…

The Guanghan Divine Palace was more than 400 meters tall. It was majestic and beautiful, spraying with divine light. The steps, walls, and pillars were all made out of high-purity saint stones and jade. If one looked carefully, one would discover that the stone and jade were carved with delicate patterns, such as flying birds, fairies, dragons, stars, etc.

But standing below Guanghan Divine Palace, one felt extreme divine might.

Even with Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation, he still felt like a divine mountain was pressing on him. He could only climb up slowly.

Ji Kongpo, Ling Mi, and Su Qingling had also rushed to the Guanghan Divine Palace. They also suffered from the divine might’s suppression.

“Even a Heaven Pa.s.s Saint wants to get onto Guanghan Divine Palace? Get down here.”

Ji Kongpo was very decisive. He attacked Zhang Ruochen directly. The gold-scale snake spear transformed into a dozen beams of golden light. They stabbed forward at once, enveloping Zhang Ruochen’s entire body.

To Zhang Ruochen, it was like a dozen golden snakes bared their fangs, snapping at him.

He was forced to stop and take out his Abyss Ancient Sword to block them.

Hundreds of beams of Sword Qi solidified instantly. They gathered into a s.h.i.+eld, cras.h.i.+ng against the dozen snake apparitions.

Thud, thud.

A string of explosions sounded in the s.p.a.ce between Ji Kongpo and Zhang Ruochen.

One had to admit that Ji Kongpo was even stronger than Bu Ji, who was in the beginning of the True Saint Realm. No wonder Bu Ji felt pressure when he heard that Ji Kongpo had entered the True Saint Realm.

“He actually blocked Ji Kongpo’s fatal strike. This Heaven Pa.s.s Saint isn’t simple.”

“Ji Kongpo has always been able to defeat people of the same realm with one strike. Now, he’s an entire level above his opponent but he couldn’t defeat him. This is miraculous.”

…

Ji Kongpo’s physique was very strong. He’d reached the Peak Realm four times and also saintified his body. Compared to Wu Hao’s Complete Body, he was only a bit weaker. He was basically a Pre-Complete Body.

Right now, Ji Kongpo was also surprised. Even though he didn’t use all his power because he’d underestimated his enemy, barely any True Saints could take that fatal hit, let alone a beginner Heaven Pa.s.s Saint.

Because of this delay, Ling Mi and Su Qingling had already reached 30 meters. In addition, Wen Shucheng and Bu Ji had caught up too. Ji Kongpo didn’t dare to dally anymore and stopped attacking Zhang Ruochen.

Ji Kongpo used his gold-scale snake spear as support and flung himself up. He shot to 30 meters instantly and swung the spear at Su Qingling.

“What an annoying guy.”

Two saint swords flew out of Su Qingling’s forehead. One crashed against the gold-scale snake spear. The other went for Ling Mi.
