Chapter 2194: Blood All Over Ziwei Palace

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chi Kongyue bit her white teeth and stared at Zhang Ruochen’s figure in the distance.

When Chi Kongyue saw the great changes in Ziwei Palace with her own eyes and the death of many elites of Imperial Court, her heart was struck with heavy blows.

She was afraid, but she did not dare to show it. She was the daughter of Zhang Ruochen and Empress Chi Yao. How could she show her weak side in front of enemies?

Nine-heavens Maiden’s gaze imbued with mixed feelings. She sighed in her heart. In the end, Zhang Ruochen still came to Yuanchu Palace.

Everything seemed to be predestined!

…

Zhang Ruochen’s long hair fluttered in the wind. He stood proudly and looked down at the powerful figures from Heavenly Realm faction who were emitting saint light.

His eyes were full of killing intent.

Chi Kongyue would have fallen into Saint King Fang Ze’s hands if he had come a little later.

“As the ruler of the Western Universe, is this how Heavenly Realm behaves? Do you still know the true responsibility of a ruling Macroworld?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Archangel Michael narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “Zhang Ruochen, you’re not qualified to judge Heavenly Realm.”

“Even a god would not dare to judge Heavenly Realm, let alone a mere Saint King,” a cultivator beside him said proudly.

Zhang Ruochen looked around at the Heavenly Realm powerhouses, “There are nearly 500 Saint Kings here,” he said. “You are all talented cultivators. I think at least half of you will reach Supreme Sainthood in the future! If all of you died here, the Macroworlds behind you will surely suffer great loss.

“I’ll give you a chance now. All of you should kneel and give up. I’ll report everything here to Moon Goddess and let Celestial Palace handle the rest. Is that fair enough?” he said.

This did not sound like persuasion at all.

It was an insult!

Anger appeared in the eyes of elites from Heavenly Realm faction.

Asking them to kneel?

How arrogant!

“Zhang Ruochen, I don’t know if you’re really stupid or pretending to be stupid. You’re the one who should kneel and beg for mercy. But it’s useless even if you beg. You must die here today,” Xu Tianjing, the new leader of the Saber Empyrean, sneered.

The leader of Cha Realm, Saint Lord Wu Xin, walked out of the palace. “Zhang Ruochen, when you die, I’ll refine you into a perfect evil corpse. I’m looking forward to it,” he said with an evil smile on his face.

Other elites from Heavenly Realm faction also had killing intent in their eyes. They could not wait to kill Zhang Ruochen with their own hands. It would be a great achievement if they succeeded.

“I’ve given you the chance to surrender. Since you lot don’t want to kneel, don’t blame me for the slaughter,” Zhang Ruochen said with his eyebrows raised. His intent to manslaughter grew stronger.

“Believe it or not, half of you will die before even touching a bit of me.”

As he spoke, Zhang Ruochen flipped his hand and took out Sundial. He immediately mobilized millions of Precepts of Time and transfused them all into Sundial.

At the same time, he operated Empyrean Emperor Ming’s Scripture. He extracted a large amount of divine essence from the divine sun formed by Sacred Seven-star Lingzhi’s Sun Leaf.

These divine essences were enough to support him for a short while to stimulate the power of Sundial.

Crash

In an instant, Sundial emitted an indescribable Taoist rhyme. A layer of cyan brilliance emerged, and countless light spots flew out from it. They turned into a beam targetting the elites from Heavenly Realm faction.

Each light spot was a Mark of Time.

A magnificent illusory image of the River of Time appeared out of thin air and resonated with Sundial.

Time became extremely chaotic wherever the cyan streak passed. Space-time was distorted because of it.

“God-eater Bug.”

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen opened the gate of Qiankun Realm. A large amount of blue flames flew out from it. They were extremely fast and pounced toward the elites from Heavenly Realm faction.

Each blue flame was a god-devouring bug. Their number was massive. Some were the size of a fingernail; some were the size of a fist; some were the size of a washbasin or even a millstone. They could devour everything.

God-eater Bugs were extremely difficult to tame.

That was why Zhang Ruochen hadn’t used them since he’d taken them from Divine Sky-connecting Tree.

His cultivation had greatly increased now. He’d reached the Great Perfection of the Saint Kinghood. Besides that, the sprout of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree was also growing rapidly. Therefore, he could finally control large numbers of God-eater Bugs.

In this kind of group battle, the God-eater bugs’ skill could be greatly useful.

“Arghhhh!”

“Save me. The Divine mark on my body has been burned through!”

“Why is my hair turning gray? There are wrinkles on my hands! ”

…

The cultivators from Heavenly Realm and its allies all let out miserable cries.

Some were either young and beautiful or heroic and handsome. However, after being attacked by Mark of Time, they instantly aged by over a thousand years. Their vitality was draining away, and died in despair.

Some powerful figures attacked by the swarm of God-eater Bugs could not dodge. They were burned to ashes.

Swoosh

Zhang Ruochen held his Ancient Abyssal Blade and walked straight ahead.

At this moment, he was like a peerless god of death. There would be bloodshed for each sword he strike. He was mercilessly reaping the lives of the powerful elites from Heavenly Realm faction.

Shink!

With one sword strike, the new leader of the Saber Empyrean, Xu Tianjing, was beheaded.

Xu Tianjing’s eyes were wide open, full of fear and resentment.

A Saint King’s vitality was very strong, but Zhang Ruochen’s strike had wiped out all of his vitality. It had destroyed the Saint Soul on the spot.

“You can’t even block one strike of mine, yet dare to challenge me,”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t stop for a moment. He flashed and appeared in front of the leader of Cha Realm, Saint Lord Wu Xin.

Saint Lord Wu Xin was shocked. He immediately raised his skull staff in hand and released a huge amount of evil Qi. He summoned more than ten evil corpses to block him in the front.

Whoosh!

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were indifferent. He used his sword soul to control the sword and displayed thousands of fierce Sword Qi. He had chopped more than ten evil corpses into pieces and also wiped out all the evil Qi.

“How could it be…”

Saint Lord Wu Xin stared at Zhang Ruochen. His glabella had been pierced by Ancient Abyssal Blade as it left a bloody hole the size of a wine cup.

The powerful Swordwill entered his body and instantly destroyed his Saint Soul.

At the moment of his death, Saint Lord Wuxin was filled with regret. He wouldn’t have attacked Divine Scripture Maiden if he had known this would happen. Let alone provoke Zhang Ruochen.

In other words, he shouldn’t have come to Kunlun, the battlefield.

Zhang Ruochen was not just a Saint King. He was far more terrifying than many Supreme Saints.

Roar

Letting out an earth-shaking roar, Emperor Yi’s Evil Spirit carried Le up to the sky and joined the battle.

Shink!

Cut-off heads and splatters of Saint Blood could be seen everywhere.

“Fifteen.”

“Sixteen.”

“Seventeen.”

…

Le was expressionless. He stabbed them one after another. Each stab took one’s life.

He did not pity the elites from Heavenly Realm faction.

“It’s your turn!”

Zhang Ruochen appeared in front of Archangel Michael in a flash.

Precepts of heaven and earth along with Saint Qi gathered crazily. Together they condensed into a cross-shaped beam of sword energy and slashed towards Archangel Michael.

Archangel Michael’s pupils constricted. He quickly took out a Saint Shield to block Zhang Ruochen. He didn’t dare to fight against Zhang Ruochen head-on.

His ability was very strong. He was only slightly weaker than Yin Yuanchen. Furthermore, his cultivation base was about 60 percent of evil Yan Wushen’s strength.

With such powerful cultivation, other than Supreme Saints he could almost do whatever he wanted to anyone else. He didn’t even need to spend much effort to kill the weakest Neverwither Supreme Saint.

However, Archangel Michael didn’t have any confidence to face Zhang Ruochen.

When he saw Zhang Ruochen crossing Sea of Truth, he already saw the gap between them. The confidence in him was almost crushed.

The Saint Shield released brilliant Saint Light. Countless Precepts of Light interweaved on its surface. It had an amazing defense.

Bang

After Saint Shield was attacked by the cross-shaped beam of sword energy, the saint light on its surface dimmed.

A powerful force passed through Saint Shield and hit the body of Archangel Michael. It came crashing into him and sent him flying.

Archangel Michael hit onto Yuanchu Palace heavily. A cross-shaped appeared on his chest, and holy blood gushed out.

Ptui!

Archangel Michael spat out a mouthful of blood, and there was a look of fear in his eyes.

He knew that Zhang Ruochen was very strong, but he didn’t expect him to be this strong. It was hard to imagine that a Saint King could have such terrifying strength.

Zhang Ruochen shifted his gaze at Yuanchu Palace. There was a flicker of some surprise in his eyes

In the palace, someone had been restraining Blood Dripper.

That person released dozens of strange chains with his palm wide open. They surrounded and wrapped around Blood Dripper. It was obvious that he wanted to take it by force.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Blood Dripper kept shaking, but it couldn’t break free.

Zhang Ruochen knew very well how powerful Blood Dripper was. Its strength was about 80 percent of evil Yan Wushen’s strength, and it was stronger than Yin Yuanchen.

With the special nature of Blood Dripper, even evil Yan Wushen’s strength was unlikely to suppress it. Let alone take it.

‘Another Descender, and… he fell out of Hundred-Shackle Realm,’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

Compared to Neverwilt Realm Descender, Teryn, who was killed by him. This person was undoubtedly much stronger. After all, he was fallen from Hundred-Shackle Realm, so he must have mastered various techniques at Hundred-Shackle Realm.

There was a huge difference between a Supreme Saint from Neverwilt Realm and a Supreme saint from Hundred-Shackle Realm. They were different and not comparable in any way.

There seemed to be a layer of mist around this person. Even Zhang Ruochen’s Eye of Truth couldn’t see through it.

Naturally, Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t just watch as Blood Dripper was being taken away. So he grabbed the hilt with both hands and swung Ancient Abyssal Blade.

Crack

All the chains fettering Blood Dripper were cut in an instant.

Taking this opportunity, Blood Dripper broke free and flew to Zhang Ruochen’s side as a streak of blood light.

“Zhang Ruochen, you’re courting death.”

The Descender from Hundred-Shackle Realm was furious. Terrifying killing intent radiated from him.

If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t stuck out and destroyed the chains, he would have been able to take Blood Dripper soon.

Being able to subdue the battle sword of Empress Chi Yao was enough to make him famous throughout myriad of Macroworlds. Furthermore, he could also take it to the gods in exchange for a supreme sacred pill. He could easily recover back as a Supreme Saint with it.

Buzz

At this moment, the clouds in the sky dispersed and two Fane buildings appeared.

These two Fane buildings were extremely tall. They hovered in the sky like two stars; each one suppressing a certain location.

A dominant Power of Time and Dimension was released from the Fane buildings. It was so powerful that it covered the oasis below.

Suddenly, the power of Sundial was suppressed. All the light spots disappeared and returned to calmness.

The God-eater Bugs were also confined by Power of Dimensions. It seemed like they’d been stuck in a muddy swamp, unable to move.

Zhang Ruochen raised his head and looked at the two Fane buildings. He could vaguely see dozens of powerful figures sitting legged crossed there. They had released countless Precepts of Time and Dimensions, activating the powerful force contained in the Fane buildings that could suppress heaven and earth.

“Fane of Time and Dimensions had finally interfered. It seems that Heavenly Realm and its allies had long thought of ways to deal with me.” Zhang Ruochen’s eyes flashed with terrifying coldness.

He did have some feuds with Fane of Dimensions, but Fane of Dimensions had never deployed their elites to counter him before.

As for Fane of Time, he had never come into contact with them. Much less to having feud with them.

However, Zhang Ruochen knew that the two Fanes were targeting him because of Saint Monk Xumi and his identity as Master of Time.

In the Middle Age, Saint Monk Xumi’s achievement was too great. His attainment in Path of Time and Path of Dimension was very high that no one from two Fanes could reach his success. As a result, two Fanes become laughing stocks.

After Saint Monk Xumi died, the two Fanes had been searching for his burial ground. They wanted to obtain his legacy for their own use.

Unfortunately, they could not find anything.

Now, they were targeting Zhang Ruochen.

The two Fanes were determined to get Secret Tome of Time and Space.

He was able to sense that Heaven Lake had been completely sealed. Time was also cut off. This meant that he could not use the power of Time and Dimension in this space.

Zhang Ruochen took Blood Dripper and temporarily retreated to the head of Emperor Yi’s Evil Spirit. He’d put away God-eater Bugs and Sundial.

Apparently, the two Fanes were the trump cards of Heavenly Realm faction to deal with him.

However, they did not expect Zhang Ruochen to attack suddenly. Therefore, the powerful figures could not react in time to activate the two Fanes.

In this short period, nearly 100 elites from Heavenly Realm faction had lost their lives. Many of them were top Nine-Step Saint Kings, including leaders such as Saint Lord Wu Xin and Xu Tianjing. They had suffered heavy casualties.

Saint Blood was all over Ziwei Palace.

The smell of blood was thick in the air.

Saint King’s blood contained a huge amount of energy. When it spilled to the ground, it would turn into blazing flames.

The remaining cultivators of Heavenly Realm and its allies all looked gloomy.

They had never expected such an outcome.

The Descender who fell out of Hundred-Shackle Realm walked out of Yuanchu Palace. He stared at Zhang Ruochen with eyes filled with murderous intent.

Archangel Micheal dragged his wounded body and walked forward with his eyes cold.

Swoosh

A large group of powerful figures soared into the clouds. They were not hindered and went straight into Heaven Lake Oasis.

After a short delay, Yin Yuanchen and the others finally caught up and blocked all the escape routes.

In this case, elites from Heavenly Realm faction formed a pincer attack on Zhang Ruochen, Le, and Blood Dripper.

Inside the palace, elites of the Imperial Court were stunned. Most people were very excited as if they had seen a ray of sunlight in the abyss.

Of course, some others frowned.

Even if Zhang Ruochen went on a killing spree and killed many elites from Heavenly Realm faction, they could not be optimistic. They knew that Heavenly Realm faction had tricks up to their sleeves.

Especially now that the powerful figures from Fane of Time and Dimension had taken action to seal Time and Space. Zhang Ruochen’s strength would be greatly reduced. How could he continue to fight with Heavenly Realm faction now?

“Master Zhang all mighty! Kill all the scums of Heavenly Realm! Don’t let any of them go!” Mastadon-Devouring Rabbit shouted excitedly.

While shouting, it opened its huge dragon mouth and swallowed two halves of Saint King Fang Ze’s body.

Flesh and blood of an elite whose cultivation base was close to the first-tier below Supreme Sainthood contained a great amount of essence Qi. Such great tonic should not be wasted.

At the same time, Mastadon-Devouring Rabbit also took Saint King Fangze’s stele. It suppressed the stele with its spiritual power and took it as a spoil of war. It was straightforward and did not even bother to ask for Zhang Ruochen’s permission.

In such a gloomy atmosphere, no one would be as heartless as Guoguo was.. It was as if it did not realize how dangerous the situation had become.
