Chapter 2118: Zhang Ruochen’s Will

After obtaining spring water from the Sun-Moon Dragon Spring from Zhang Ruochen, all Re-Awakeners immediately swallowed it. They couldn’t wait to complete cleansing as soon as possible.

Ao Xinyan walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side and looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

“What do you want to say?” Zhang Ruochen smiled.

Ao Xinyan’s eyes were filled with unwillingness. She said, “There are still a large number of powerhouses of Infernal Court on True Dragon Island. Are we just going to leave like this?”

Although they had found the most important thing—key to the World Gate, the powerhouses of Infernal Court were still lingering in the holy lands of the Divine Dragon race and stealing their treasure. This was undoubtedly unacceptable to Ao Xinyan.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “Of course not. I will do everything I can to kill the powerhouses of Infernal Court, but we must also bring the key to the World Gate out of True Dragon Island as soon as possible. There are too many variables here, and I don’t want any problems.”

“Then, Captain, what do you plan to do with the key to the World Gate?” Ao Xinyan asked.

Keeping the key to the World Gate wouldn’t be an easy task since many from the Infernal Court were eyeing it.

Zhang Ruochen thought for a moment and exhaled lightly, “Let’s first bring the key to the World Gate to Silver Dragon Island. I will make other arrangements after I have finished dealing with things here.”

The key to the World Gate was extremely important. Unlike anything else, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t think of any suitable way to deal with it.

If that taboo person in Ying Yang Sea hadn’t left, he wouldn’t have to worry about this matter. There wouldn’t even be an army from the Infernal Court invading the Ying Yang Sea.

After a short while, the exploded divine power calmed down, and True Dragon Island gradually returned to peace.

Meanwhile, almost all Re-Awakeners had completed their baptism and regained their strength. The special aura of the Re-Awakener was also erased, making it hard for anyone to identify them.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes swept across all Re-Awakeners and thought: those who were qualified to be sealed in the middle ancient times were indeed not ordinary people. All of them had extraordinary talent to become Supreme saints or even deities.

Yet, Zhang Ruochen didn’t understand why magnates of Kunlun Realm sealed the top geniuses of each era?

Even with his current cultivation base and strength, Zhang Ruochen was still confused about many things. He couldn’t understand what the magnates had planned.

After a serious discussion, most of the Re-Awakeners, including the Elder Patriarch Death Zen and Corpse Emperor Tianming, decided to stay on True Dragon Island temporarily to fight against the Army of the Infernal Court with Zhang Ruochen.

On the other hand, Blackie, Ao Xinyan, Vermilion Aurum, and Thousandblade were responsible for taking the key to the World Gate out of True Dragon Island so that their minds could be at ease.

They had originally planned to only let Vermilion Aurum and Thousandblade escort Blackie, but to be on the safe side, they could use the Silver Shenlong Armor in case of emergency if Ao Xinyan came along.

After getting enough spring water from Sun and Moon Divine Dragon Spring, Vermilion Aurum and Thousandblade had completely recovered their strength and were even stronger than before.

“Don’t worry, Zhang Ruozhen. I’ve already refined a small amount of holy spring,” Blackie said confidently. “If I run into trouble, I can easily raise my cultivation base to the Supreme saint level. No one can take the key to the World Gate from me.”

In fact, it could now restore its cultivation base to the Supreme saint level, but it didn’t do so. This was because if it had done so, it could no longer stay in Kunlun Realm anymore.

Without further delay, Blackie and the other three immediately set off. They took the key to the World Gate and rushed out of True Dragon Island.

After watching the four leave, Zhang Ruochen and those who stayed behind immediately began to search for the traces of the cultivators of the Infernal Court.

Since the cultivators of the Infernal Court were already scattered everywhere, Zhang Ruochen and the others did not walk together. They split into several teams and moved separately.

Although there weren’t many of them, they were all top powerhouses.

Since Zhang Ruochen was riding the Dragon Phantom Lord, there weren’t many places in the entire True Dragon Island that could stop them.

After a while, they saw a team that consisted of a few dozen Nether Clan soldiers.

“It’s Zhang Ruochen and that monster!”

The Nether Clan soldiers didn’t even have the will to fight at all. All they wanted to do was run.

They scattered and fled in different directions to survive.

Roar!!!

The Dragon Phantom Lord let out a roar.

It opened its mouth to let out a terrifying suction force, sucking in dozens of Nether Clan soldiers.

Without any delay, the Dragon Phantom Lord carried Zhang Ruochen and transformed into a streak of light. They continued forward.

This time, there were many powerhouses of the Infernal Court. They were all the elites of the Nether Clan and Bone Clan. If all of them were killed, it would be a huge loss for both clans.

In a short time, Zhang Ruochen and the Dragon Phantom Lord had killed dozens of teams of the Infernal Court — more than 1,000 people in total. It was a huge massacre.

It didn’t matter whether the powerhouses of the Infernal Court resisted the attack or not, their fates were decided.

Seeing that he could not escape, one of the cultivators of the Nine-step Saint Kings of the Nether Clan roared with resentment.

“Zhang Ruochen, you wouldn’t end well if you kill the powerhouses of the Infernal Court in such a frenzy. Someone will kill you soon.”

Zhang Ruochen said lightly, “If they want to kill me, just let them come forward. I will kill as many as they come.”

With that, Zhang Ruochen waved the Ancient Abyssal Blade in his hand and slashed forward.

Puff.

The sword slashed through the Nether Clan cultivator’s skull, crushing his Saint Soul immediately, leaving only a wisp.

A large number of merit points could be exchanged for killing these cultivators of the Infernal Court. Hence, as expected, Zhang Ruochen would not waste this chance.

He could collect a considerable number of Saint Souls after he swept through True Dragon Island.

After Zhang Ruochen and the Dragon Phantom Lord left, another team emerged from a distance. They didn’t belong to the Infernal Court but Sunshine Civilization.

Although Zhang Ruochen had subdued thousands of cultivators from Sunshine Civilization, that wasn’t all. There were still some scattered in the ruins of the Dragon God Temple.

“Zhang Ruochen has even dared to kill the Tianzi and become the enemy of Sunshine Civilization. How evil.”

“He’s too strong, even the Twin Kings were subdued by him. Moreover, the Son of Darkness was also defeated by him. Even if we gather all our forces, we wouldn’t be a threat to him.”

“The water on True Dragon Island is too deep. It ‘s better if we leave first and report everything that happened here. Let the old Tianzhu decide.”

..

The powerhouses of Sunshine Civilization were all furious, but there was nothing they could do. In front of Zhang Ruochen, they could only feel helpless.

In fact, not only the cultivators of Sunshine Civilization, those from Celestial Dragon Realm, Thousand-Star Civilization, Giant Spirit Civilization, and Beidou Civilization were terrified when they saw Zhang Ruochen.

After all, they were all here to seize the key to the World Gate. So, it wouldn’t benefit them if they became enemies of Zhang Ruochen.

Bang!

The Dragon Phantom Lord stomped on a small hill and stopped, blocking the way of the four powerhouses.

These four powerful figures were none other than Ao Xukong, Xing Wuji, Immortal Minghu, and the Giant Spirit King. They were all the most powerful cultivators below the Supreme Saint.

While being face-to-face with the ferocious Dragon Phantom Lord, Ao Xukong and the other three felt uneasy.

They could feel that the Dragon Phantom Lord’s aura had clearly become stronger, despite only a few hours have passed. This meant that he was even more dangerous than when he swallowed the Son of Darkness earlier.

Swoosh.

Zhang Ruochen swept down from the Dragon Phantom Lord and stood before Ao Xukong and the other three.

“Zhang Ruochen, what are you trying to do?” Immortal Minghu frowned slightly.

Immortal Minghu was displeased that his path was forcefully blocked. Had it been anyone else, he would have already attacked.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at the four and went straight to the point, “I hope you can gather the army and withdraw from True Dragon Island.”

Upon hearing this, Ao Xukong and the other three people’s expressions changed slightly. They weren’t dumb and immediately understood that Zhang Ruochen was trying to drive them away.

Obviously, since Zhang Ruochen has increased in strength and conquered the Dragon Phantom Lord, he was confident that no one would be allowed to touch the key to the World Gate and the treasures left in the Dragon God Temple.

Seeing that the four people were silent, Zhang Ruochen said again, “Everything on True Dragon Island belongs to Kunlun Realm. Next, I will eliminate all outsiders on the island.”

They felt a strong will that could not be disobeyed from Zhang Ruochen.

Roar!

The Dragon Phantom Lord roared toward the sky, giving off a terrifying aura. It sounded as if it were to subdue everything in the world.

Immortal Minghu was about to say something but immediately halted after sensing the terrifying aura from the Dragon Phantom Lord.

Ao Xukong smiled, “The Celestial Dragon Realm sent an army into the Ying Yang Sea to help the Kunlun Realm fight against the Army of the Infernal Court and protect the key to the World Gate. Now that the Army of the Infernal Court has been defeated by you, Brother Zhang, the Army of the Celestial Dragon Realm will no longer stay on True Dragon Island.

“Brother Zhang, if you need any help, just let me know.”

Zhang Ruochen already had a good impression of Ao Xukong. Upon hearing his words, Zhang Ruochen immediately had a better impression of him.

” I will never forget your kindness. Thank you very much.” Zhang Ruochen also smiled.

Ao Xukong said, ” Having you as a friend has made this trip to the Kunlun Realm worthwhile. We shall have a drink when this is over.”

“I will definitely serve you the best wine when that time comes,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Clearly, Zhang Ruochen and Ao Xukong had further enhanced their relationship after this conversation.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen and Ao Xukong were talking happily like best friends, Xing Wuji, Immortal Minghu, and the Giant Spirit King could not help but frown.

They can tell that Zhang Ruochen was determined. It was clear that there was no room for negotiation on this matter. If they refused, Zhang Ruochen might really attack them.

All this time, Zhang Ruochen didn’t seem to have any scruples. He even dared to provoke the Heavenly Realm, one of the four dominant worlds.

“The army of Thousand-Star Civilization will withdraw soon. I hope you can get the key to the World Gate as you wish,” Xing Wuji said to Zhang Ruochen with a faint smile.

The Giant Spirit King said, “Since the threat from the Infernal Court has been removed, the army of Giant Spirit Civilization should withdraw too.”

Since Ao Xukong, Xing Wuji, and Giant Spirit King had promised to retreat their army one after another, Immortal Minghu had no choice even though he was reluctant.

“Beidou Civilization will withdraw too,” he said with a cold face.

Zhang Ruochen smiled when he received positive answers from the four. He did not want to turn everyone into enemies if it wasn’t necessary.

Zhang Ruochen cupped his hands, “Thank you for the help. Goodbye.”

With that, he moved and reappeared on top of the Dragon Phantom Lord.

The Dragon Phantom Lord used a dimensional technique and disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, he was already hundreds of miles away.

“How can Zhang Ruochen drive everyone away so quickly?” Immortal Minghu said angrily. “He’s trying to claim True Dragon Island all to himself.”

“If you and I had the strength, I believe we would do the same thing,” the Giant Spirit King said. “Unfortunately, True Dragon Island is full of dangers, which is far from what we expected. Leaving early might not be a bad thing.”

Hearing this, Ao Xukong, Xing Wuji, and Immortal Minghu felt a chill down their spine. They immediately thought of the Dragon Phantom Lord under Zhang Ruochen. That terrifying monster was definitely bred on True Dragon Island. It wouldn’t end well if they were to cross paths with it.

Not to forget that strange and unpredictable Mojo. He had caused great losses to everyone by just releasing the so-called “children”.

Not long ago, the four of them had seen many cultivators of Sunshine Civilization face a group of creepy children. After suffering a terrifying spiritual power attack, all cultivators too turned into creepy children.

At that time, they had attempted to step in and save them, but that was impossible. Those cultivators of Sunshine Civilization had been completely assimilated by the mysterious power of the Mojo and could no longer return to their original appearance.

Apart from the Dragon Phantom Lord and Mojo, there may be other terrifying creatures on True Dragon Island. If they were to encounter them somewhere, it would turn into a great disaster.

As they realized this, Ao Xukong and the other three no longer hesitated. They used special means to send the message and tried to gather all powerhouses on their side as soon as possible.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen and the Dragon Phantom Lord continued to sweep through the Army of the Infernal Court, giving them no choice but to flee.

“Run! Zhang Ruochen is here!”

Many powerhouses of Infernal Court were scared out of their wits. They desperately fled from True Dragon Island.

After chasing for a long time, Zhang Ruochen finally found someone. They were the eight Reverends of the Bone Clan.

At the moment, the Eight Reverends of the Bone Clan had already fled to the edge of True Dragon Island. They were about to let out a sigh of relief when they suddenly felt a terrifying crisis.

Their leader — the Eight-armed Reverend roared, “D*mn it, how could Zhang Ruochen catch up with us?”

“Oh no, the space has been confined. Our speed has slowed down.”

All of the Eight Reverends of the Bone Clan were anxious.

They were less than a hundred miles away from the sea. They could have flashed past in the blink of an eye, but now it was completely out of reach.

The eight-armed Reverend swung his darkgold staff and gritted his teeth, “Break out with all our strength. As long as we can get out of True Dragon Island, Zhang Ruochen can’t do anything to us.”

As long as they manage to escape from True Dragon Island, the Emissaries Vigilant would be able to monitor everything. Even if the Dragon Phantom Lord dared to take a step out, he would be killed mercilessly.

The eight Reverends had absolute confidence in protecting themselves with their combined strength against Zhang Ruochen alone.

The eight Reverends of the Bone Clan instantly formed a battle formation and gathered their power onto the eight-armed Reverend. They moved the darkgold staff with all their strength and released powerful Supreme Power to tear the confined space apart forcefully.

“Don’t even think about escaping.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were cold. He waved his hand and took out Zangshan Demonic Mirror.

As Zhang Ruochen and the Dragon Phantom Lord poured their power in, Zangshan Demonic Mirror shook violently. Monstrous demon energy was released from it, which then condensed into a majestic demonic mountain, subduing the eight Reverends.

Bang!

Even though the eight Reverends of the Bone Clan had tried their best to block the demonic mountain with the darkgold staff, they were unsuccessful. Their battle formation crumbled in an instant.

Crack!

Under the suppression of the demonic mountain, the Supreme saint’s bones could no longer handle the pressure and cracked.

Rumble…

At this moment, three powerful forces appeared. They struck the demonic mountain, and it shattered.

Zhang Ruochen looked above the sea surface and saw three tall figures. It was three skeletons who gave off powerful auras. It’s the Three Emperors of the Bone Clan who had inherited the power of Vajra.

Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat. He realized how powerful the Three Emperors were now.

He wondered who was stronger — the Three Emperors of the Bone Clan or the Four Heavenly Kings of the Celestial Palace?

Still, with the Dragon Phantom Lord as his mount, Zhang Ruochen wasn’t afraid of the Three Emperors of the Bone Clan at all. His eyes were filled with killing intent.

The eight Reverends of the Bone Clan seized the opportunity and fled with all their might.

The Three Emperors of the Bone Clan continued to attack, obstructing Zhang Ruochen and the Dragon Phantom Lord.

Roar!

The Dragon Phantom Lord roared again and again. It flapped its wings under its ribs, releasing a vast divine power. It turned into a terrifying divine power storm that swept out immediately.

The Three Emperors of the Bone Clan were not careless and attacked quickly. At the same time, they used the power of Vajra. Their powers combined together, forming a barrier of Vajra in front of them.

“Hmph.”

Zhang Ruochen let out a cold snort. He activated the Precepts of Dimension with all his strength and pressed his hand forward.

BOOM!!

A large area of space shattered. The power to destroy everything slowly spreaded out.

AHHH!!

Shrill screams rang out. The eight Reverends of the Bone Clan were all enveloped by the power of the Dimensional Annihilation.

Their Supreme saint bones couldn’t resist the Dimensional Annihilation and shattered one-by-one.

Buzz.

The Three Emperors of the Bone Clan had to defend against the attack of the Dragon Phantom Lord and so were unable to free up their hands. They could only cast out their respective bronze seals.

The three bronze seals merged into one as they flew out and released a strong power of Vajra, destroying the power of the Dimensional Annihilation.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, five Reverends, including the eight-armed Reverend, managed to break free and obtain protection from the bronze seals.

The other three Reverends weren’t so lucky. As their bones were badly damaged, they were on the verge of death. They ended up being absorbed into Zangshan Demonic Mirror instantly.
