Chapter 1587 - Minor Completion (2/2)

Inside Swallow Palace, Zhang Ruochen struck with the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm over and over again. He went from the first to tenth palm and repeated again. Holy Qi flowed continuously through him and his palm force was natural too. It held boundless power and could split the world.

He reached minor completion for the 11th palm, Dragon and Elephant Heaven Pa.s.s, and its power multiplied.

Even though he still couldn’t add Rules of Palm Way into his palm techniques, the first step Saint King souls made the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm as powerful as a regular mid-level saint spell.

Mid-level saint spells could also be divided into three cla.s.ses: regular, expert and master.

Mid-level saint spells could only become stronger the more Rules of Saintly Way that you added to it.

Regular mid-level saint spells would reach a bottleneck after adding in 1,000 rules. After surpa.s.sing 1,000 rules, you could add more and the spells would still strengthen, but it wouldn’t be as dramatic.

Expert mid-level saint spells would reach a bottleneck at 10,000 rules.

However, the limit for master mid-level saint spells was more than one million rules. If one cultivated a master mid-level saint spell to the highest level, then it could counter upper saint spells.

Of course, the differences between these three levels wasn’t only in the limit. The power varied greatly too. You could add in the same number of rules, but an expert mid-level saint spell would crush a regular spell.

Most half-step Saint Kings cultivated regular mid-level saint spells.

Expert mid-level saint spells were already rare. Only those Saint Kings with powerful backgrounds could learn them.

As for master mid-level saint spells, there were barely any and they were like supreme techniques. Typically, only the 81 scriptures on the Taiyi Divine Techniques Rank had records of them.

Not only did those scriptures record the ways to cultivate the techniques, they also added top martial techniques and spells that could complement them. Some scriptures even recorded taboo spells. Each scripture’s appearance would cause b.l.o.o.d.y fights.

The Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm was very miraculous. The technique would upgrade with each palm that he cultivated. It wasn’t a regular martial technique. If he fully completed the eleventh palm, it might become at least an expert mid-level spell. It could even become a master spell.

“After refining the Saint King elephant and dragon souls into my body, first-step Saint King power was added to both of my arms.”

With Zhang Ruochen’s current physical power, he could fight with some weaker second step Saint Kings. Thus, getting a first step Saint King’s power wasn’t too big of a deal.

He took out two boxing gloves and wrist guards from his spatial ring.

The gloves were fiery red and made out of some unknown material. They were very hot and heavy. The two wrist guards were made out of the same material. Flames were carved on them and they had sharp spikes shaped like two b.a.l.l.s of fire.

This was part of the Fire G.o.d Armor that Qiu Yu had left behind.

The Fire G.o.d had many ancient legends in Kunlun’s Field. He was a powerful G.o.d.

Apparently, any material that approached the Fire G.o.d would get burned to ashes by his body’s hot temperature. Only the fire armor wouldn’t melt.

The legends said that the Fire G.o.d cultivated 3,000 types of flames. He also combined them all together into something more terrifying than the Divine Fire Jingmie—G.o.d-Refining Fire.

However, the G.o.d-Refining Fire was too destructive, so much so that even the Fire G.o.d couldn’t control it. In the end, he burned himself to ashes.

The G.o.d-Refining Fire killed the Fire G.o.d but didn’t destroy the armor.

This undoubtedly gave the armor a mysterious veil.

Zhang Ruochen had studied the Fire G.o.d Armor before too. It counted as a G.o.dly relic. After adding in Holy Qi, it could activate a shred of the Fire G.o.d’s origin power.

However, the power of the Fire G.o.d Armor wasn’t as strong as he’d imagined. It wasn’t even on the Hundred Saint Blood Armor’s level.

In addition, its defensive abilities weren’t as strong either. After all, it wasn’t a full set. It was incomplete and could only protect his arms.

Thus, Zhang Ruochen kept it in his spatial ring and didn’t use it.

Now, his Spiritual Power, Way of Truth, and palm techniques had all improved. Naturally, he wanted to take down the Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo—the Yin and Yang Palace.

Evil figures from three strong worlds ruled over the Yin and Yang Palace. It was a pit of snakes and filled with danger.

Before this, any improvement could increase his chances. Thus, Zhang Ruochen started studying the Fire G.o.d Armor again.

“When Qiu Yu wore the armor, the power it unleashed was much stronger than the Hundred Saint Blood Armor. Why can’t I release its power?”

He studied it for a long while and did all sorts of tests to no avail. In the end, he had to put it away again. He thought that maybe Blackie could help provide answers after it returned.

However, what frustrated him even more was that it was almost one month and Blackie still hadn’t come to the Heavenly Capital Saint Market.

Zhang Ruochen decided to wait three more days. If Blackie still didn’t hurry over, then he would go take back Moon G.o.ddess’s dojo by himself. He could also use these three days to personally investigate the Yin and Yang Palace so he could be completely familiar with it.

Exiting Swallow Palace, Zhang Ruochen planned on going to the Yin and Yang Palace, but he felt something wrong with the atmosphere of Hundred Flower Palace.

Night had just fallen. This should be when the palace was the busiest, but it was cold and quiet now. There wasn’t a single customer in sight.

Zhang Ruochen was curious, so he asked Swallow.

“Lord,” Swallow replied, “I don’t know what’s going on either. This afternoon, the Fairy Extreme King suddenly ordered the closure of Hundred Flower Palace and that they stop accepting customers for now. Even the dojo’s defensive formation was activated. It seems like something big has happened. Oh, he also ordered that you should stay in the residence and not come out.”
