Chapter 1915 - Saint King Merit List

Chapter 1915: Saint King Merit List

There was an adage that said, “when enemies meet, blood boils”, and that sentence was very true during this instance.

Shang Ziyan’s gaze changed and quickly returned to normal. He could not take any action against Zhang Ruochen in the Main Terminal of Merits. There were some rules that he could not override, otherwise, even his master, Yanshen, could not protect him from the repercussions.

“Zhang Ruochen, what are you doing at the Canis Star? Escaping from the Kunlun Realm?” Si Han sneered.

The last time he joined forces with Mr. Godcliff to take over the Eastern Region, the plan had been ruined by Zhang Ruochen, and he had always wanted to settle the score with the latter, especially recently.

He had made huge gains in the Kunlun Realm, and his strength had greatly improved. So, his confidence was naturally stronger, and he did not believe that he could not deal with Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at Si Han indifferently and sneered, “What right does a loser have to start pointing fingers at me?”

“Who are you calling a loser? If it weren’t for the ancient wards, killing you would be as easy as killing a mosquito,” Si Han said.

Zhang Ruochen was extremely calm, and he lightly said, “The world doesn’t have so many ifs. When you can actually pull that off, it won’t be too late for you to come back and repeat those words to me.”

“Zhang Ruochen.”

Si Han clenched his fists, his eyes almost bursting into flames.

That damned cur dared to taunt him before so many people.

If Zhang Ruochen really fell into his hands, he would definitely extract Zhang Ruochen’s Saint Soul and torture it for a thousand years to quench the hatred in his heart.

“Ignore him, let’s exchange our merit points,” Shang Ziyan said softly, preventing Si Han from continuing to confront Zhang Ruochen.

Such a confrontation in the Main Terminal of Merits was meaningless, and would only make them the butt of the joke.

Of course, if it had been some other place, then there was no need for such nonsense, and they could fight straightaway.

When he came to the Kunlun Realm, he had an extremely important task, which was to kill Zhang Ruochen.

In his eyes, Zhang Ruochen was like a grasshopper after autumn, and he did not have long to live.

Si Han snorted heavily and looked away as he followed Shang Ziyan and the rest into the Merit Exchange Hall.

King Daxi did not say a word, her eyes dodging him as she followed the rest closely behind.

Looking at King Daxi, Zhang Ruochen could not help but to raise the edge of his mouth slightly, revealing a unique smile.

He could perceive that the Flaming Insects still existed inside King Daxi’s body and had not been refined away. He could still use them to control King Daxi.

“Interesting, really interesting.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled as he stepped into the Merit Exchange Hall.

“Zhang Ruochen’s crazy enough to provoke even Shang Ziyan.”

“Oh didn’t you know, Zhang Ruochen and Shang Ziyan have been like this for a long time now. There will definitely be a battle between them sooner or later.”

“Shang Ziyan is the leader of the Fane of Merit, a personal disciple of Yanshen. He has the Heavenly Realm behind him as well, so Zhang Ruochen may not be his match.”

“Don’t you go looking down on Zhang Ruochen. He is the Scion of Time and Space, the Divine Envoy of Yueshen, the fiance of Empress Chi Yao. His identities are no lesser than Shang Ziyan’s. As far as I know, Zhang Ruochen has survived countless dangers since his rise, and nothing seems to be able to take him down.”

Watching Zhang Ruochen confront the people of the Heavenly Realm faction, many could not help but gossip. After all, they were just watching for fun and did not mind if things escalated.

After entering the Merit Exchange Hall, two lists appeared clearly before Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, they were the Saint Merit List and the Saint King Merit List.

One time, Zhang Ruochen had relied on the battlefield in the Zuling Realm and surpassed the Thousand Star Fairy, becoming the top person on the Saint Merit List.

Of course, now that he was a Nine-step Saint King, his concern was naturally with the Saint King Merit List.

It was not an easy task to get onto the Saint King Merit List. One would need to accumulate at least a billion merit points at the very least. That meant it was necessary to kill many elites of the Infernal Court.

This time, many powerful Saint Kings from the Celestial Court had poured into the Kunlun Realm for the purpose of getting onto the Saint King Merit List and becoming famous.

“Shang Ziyan has already been on the Saint King Merit List. It looks like he has killed many Infernal Court elites in the Battlefield of Merits.

“Even King Daxi, Phantom Princess, and Si Han are on the list. Hmm, capable at the very least.”

As he looked at the Saint King Merit List, a bizarre look appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.

According to the rules set by the Fane of Merit, killing a Demi Saint was worth ten to one thousand merit points. Killing a Saint was worth a thousand to a hundred thousand points while a Saint King was worth one hundred thousand points to ten million points. The value of the merit points was determined by the strength of the slain foe.

Getting onto the Celestial Court’s Saint King Merit List was equivalent to killing a hundred top-level Saint Kings.

It was because of the difficulty that almost all of those whose names were on the list were veteran top-level Saint Kings that had cultivated for hundreds or even thousands of years.

Shang Ziyan’s merit points had exceeded 1.8 billion, which was not a small number.

At this moment, he was exchanging merit points and could see that his merit point total was constantly changing.

In the end, the merit point exceeded two billion points, and his ranking increased significantly.

Zhang Ruochen stepped forward, also prepared to exchange merit points.

The exchange of merit points was very simple. He only needed a drop of blood or a wisp of Saint Soul from an Infernal Court cultivator.

Zhang Ruochen took out a jade bottle and poured out drops of blood as he started the exchange.

“How many Infernal Court cultivators can he kill without even stepping into the Battlefield of Merit?” Si Han sneered.

“Don’t say that. After all, there are many Infernal Court cultivators who have infiltrated the Kunlun Realm. Perhaps he ran into a squad of them.”

Everyone could hear the ridicule in their words.

Si Han laughed and added, “You’re right, perhaps he can even get onto the Saint King Merit List with those merit points.”

“Who’s going onto the Celestial Court’s Saint King Merit List again?”

“You gotta be joking. Zhang Ruochen has never stepped foot on a Battlefield of Merits. Where could he have collected a billion merit points?”

“There are indeed many Infernal Court cultivators who have infiltrated the Kunlun Realm, but they are scattered all over the world. Do you think they’re that easy to kill?”

“I have not heard of any large-scale battles lately, so it’s impossible for Zhang Ruochen to get that many merit points.”

“Who is Zhang Ruochen? A coward, a coward who dares not step foot on the Battlefield of Merits.”

“For someone to call a person like this the Kunlun Realm’s God of War, what a goddamn joke.”

For a moment, various voices rang out, mostly looking down on Zhang Ruochen.

Among them, many people were ridiculing him, as they looked down upon Zhang Ruochen.

Without a doubt. the people who were mocking Zhang Ruochen were mostly from the factions that were hostile to him.

“Hahaha, well said, some people are indeed downright cowards.”

Si Han laughed even more brazenly.

Now he was in a very good mood, and that swept away the previous gloominess he had.

For Zhang Ruochen to dare come to the Merit Exchange Hall, it was himself looking to put his shame up on for display.

Zhang Ruochen appeared very calm and was completely deaf to the various discussions, as well as gossip, in the hall.

As he continued to pour out the blood, his merit points were also rapidly increasing.

In the beginning, many were laughing and wanting to see the commotion.

Gradually, however, the smiles on many of their faces disappeared, and the changes in their expressions were a sight to behold.

After pouring a bottle of blood, Zhang Ruochen’s merit points increased to six hundred million points, which was not a small amount.

Such a number undoubtedly shocked many.

They themselves did not have that many merit points, so what right did they have to laugh at Zhang Ruochen?

So for many, they chose to remain silent and stopped making any more comments.

Si Han’s expression changed a little, but he still sneered, “It’s just a mere six hundred million points, so what then? He has a long way to go before getting onto the Celestial Court’s Saint King Merit List.”

No matter what, it was impossible for him to recognize Zhang Ruochen.

Fortunately, his own merit points far exceeded Zhang Ruochen’s, so he could still run his mouth.

King Daxi frowned slightly, her eyes locked onto Zhang Ruochen. She always felt that things were not that simple.

The main reason was that Zhang Ruochen was acting too calm, so calm he was that it made her a little scared.

Sure enough, under the gaze of many, Zhang Ruochen took out the second jade bottle and poured out a lot of blood again.

“Seven hundred million.”

“Eight hundred million.”

“Nine hundred million.”

Seeing the continuously increasing number of merit points, many were stunned.

“Gulp… One billion.”

The moment the merit points reached one billion, some could not help but swallow their saliva, clearly frightened.

Yet, the merit points did not stop at one billion and continued to climb.

“How can that be?”

Si Han’s eyes widened and could not believe that he saw.

King Daxi shook her head slightly. As she expected, Zhang Ruochen really liked to surprise everyone.

At that moment, even Shang Ziyan’s expression changed, and he could no longer remain calm and indifferent.

“Two billion, and it’s still increasing.”

Someone’s voice trembled.

Shang Ziyan’s expression turned a little gloomy, he had fought tooth and nail in the Battlefield of Merit to only earn two billion merit points. Yet, in a blink of an eye, he was surpassed by someone who had never stepped foot onto the battlefield.

A moment ago, he was still mocking Zhang Ruochen, and he did not expect to receive a slap in the face that quickly. Who was the real joke now?

“Gasp, 3.5 billion merit points…”

Seeing Zhang Ruochen’s merit points, the hall immediately resounded with a large number of gasps.

Having that many merit points was not something anyone dared to even dream of.

Also, someone noticed that the amount of blood that Zhang Ruochen had poured out was about a hundred thousand drops. It was an astonishing number.

“Aside from the Battlefield of Merits, where else can one kill so many Infernal Court cultivators? And these blood seemed to all belong to the Immortal Vampires.

In this regard, everyone had questions.

“Immortal Vampires.”

A bizarre glint flashed past Shang Ziyan’s eyes.

“Zhang Ruochen, the Immortal Vampires that besieged the Sword Vault should have been wiped out right? Good showing for actually annihilating a hundred-thousand-strong Immortal Vampire army without a sound.”

Shang Ziyan murmured.

“Impossible. The one-hundred-thousand Immortal Vampire army was led by several Shenzis, so how can they be completely annihilated?” someone immediately objected.

It was no secret that the Immortal Vampire army had besieged and assaulted the Sword Vault, and many knew about it.

It was just that things were very complicated there, so no one wanted to get involved.

So it stood to reason that this situation should not have occurred.

However, if it was true, it would be terrifying enough to shock the entire Kunlun Realm.

For a moment, everyone turned their eyes to Zhang Ruochen as they waited for him to answer.
