Chapter 1609 - Third Party Involved (1/2)
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
The destructive abilities of the Hundred Step No Lives Rune was indeed very powerful. It injured countless top cultivators and killed a ma.s.s of Evil Way cultivators, shocking the entire field.
However, Zhang Ruochen was at the center of the destruction. Wouldn’t he be killed even more horribly?
Evidently, their worry was unnecessary.
Just as Zhang Ruochen struck with the Hundred Step No Lives Rune, the seventh level PaG.o.da Rune on his body shone with dazzling light. It transformed into a seven-floor paG.o.da that covered his entire body.
Inside it, the Hundred Saint Blood Armor was caved in at his left shoulder. An injury appeared there and blood poured out.
That injury had nothing to do with the Hundred Step No Lives Rune. It was from Sir Mu’s evil finger attack when he’d fought against four strong cultivators by himself.
In the end, Sir Mu, Lady Mu, w.a.n.g Xu, and Yu Zhan were very strong. Zhang Ruochen couldn’t fend off their attacks by himself at all.
If not for the Hundred Step No Lives Rune, Zhang Ruochen would’ve definitely lost tragically as time dragged on.
Of course, without it, Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t have let himself be surrounded by four strong cultivators. He would’ve retreated elsewhere long ago.
“Now!”
Zhang Ruochen used the Spatial Move and appeared before Zhan Yu, stabbing at his forehead.
Twelve Saint King dragon souls rushed out of Zhan Yu. They clawed at Zhang Ruochen, trying to protect their master.
Poof!
Zhang Ruochen’s sword cultivation was incredibly advanced. He forced aside the 12 dragon souls and, taking advantage of how Zhan Yu was gravely injured, he stabbed through Zhan Yu’s head.
His head exploded with a burst, transforming into a cloud of b.l.o.o.d.y mist.
The 12 dragon souls didn’t scatter. They still snaked around Zhan Yu’s corpse.
Twelve Saint King dragon souls are more than one hundred million saint stones. Zhan Ye probably spent his entire fortune on them.
Zhang Ruochen was very tempted. If he refined all 12 dragon souls into his arm, not only would he be strengthened physically, he’d also complete the 11th palm of the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm.
Now wasn’t the time to collect dragon souls. He had to take care of the other Evil Way cultivators first.
Zhang Ruochen was extremely fast. He flew to Mr. and Mrs. Mu and killed them.
Mr. and Mrs. Mu were strong fifth step Saint Kings and had the ability to become Supreme Saints. It was an incredible pity for them to die in the hands of a half-step Saint King.
Finally, Zhang Ruochen brought his sword down on w.a.n.g Xu to kill him.
Hit by the Hundred Step No Lives Rune, w.a.n.g Xu felt dizzy, his vision was blurry, and his ears rang. He was in a horrible state and could barely manage to stand.
By the time he circulated his Holy Qi and recovered, he saw black sword light stabbing toward his forehead.
He was very shocked.
It was too late to block it with his broadsword, so he could only activate the divine pattern on him again.
Boom!
The Abyss Ancient Sword hit w.a.n.g Xu’s forehead but was stopped by the divine patterns. It was like hitting metal.
Divine light and sword Qi scattered in all directions.
w.a.n.g Xu heard ringing in his head as he flew out again and fell heavily onto the ground.
Right now, w.a.n.g Xu’s head felt heavier than a mountain. It was very hard to stand up again. This was a bad sign.
“What powerful divine patterns.”
Zhang Ruochen looked at w.a.n.g Xu’s patterns and frowned. He activated spatial power in preparation of tearing the s.p.a.ce.
Even divine patterns shouldn’t be able to resist the spatial crack.
This time, he must kill his mortal enemy, w.a.n.g Xu.
Zhang Ruochen stomped onto the ground with his right foot, making the earth collapse. Then he shot forward like an arrow.
At his fingertip, the s.p.a.ce started trembling and fissuring.
The spatial crack was expanding.
Zhan Yu, Mr. and Mrs. Mu, and the four Song siblings had died, humiliating Qiong Lin. He obviously wouldn’t watch as Zhang Ruochen killed w.a.n.g Xu now.
“Blood Light in the Sky!”
Qiong Lin’s blood demon mace shone with brilliant b.l.o.o.d.y light, reflecting on the earth with blood. It was as if it had been dyed red.
Boom!
Dozens of b.l.o.o.d.y snake projections flew out of the mace. They had wings and their eyes were b.l.o.o.d.y.
The Blood Light in the Sky was a mid-level saint spell mace technique. When Qiong Lin used it, he was like a demon G.o.d. He waved the blood pillar, creating horrifying waves of power.
Before Zhang Ruochen could fully activate the spatial crack, it shrunk under the attack of the dozen snakes and finally closed shut.
“The saintly ripples are actually strong enough to disturb s.p.a.ce.”
Seeing the spatial crack disappear, Zhang Ruochen knew that he’d lost the chance to kill w.a.n.g Xu. Unhappy, he waved his arm and threw the Emperor Yi Bone Staff out.
After it flew out, it transformed into a black skeleton and stepped on w.a.n.g Xu, continuing to attack the divine patterns on his body.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen waved his Abyss Ancient Sword and clashed against Qiong Lin’s demonic mace.
As soon as they touched, Zhang Ruochen flew backward like a broken kite. He slammed heavily against a wall in the Yin and Yang Palace.
