God Emperor - Chapter 1120
Chapter 1120: Four Ancient Evils
Injuring seven Beast Kings in one move was far more impressive than when Zhang Ruochen had fought 19 Beast Kings by himself. At that time, Zhang Ruochen had been forced back by the 19 Beast Kings. He could barely defend himself.
Less than one month later, Zhang Ruochen’s combat abilities had improved vastly. It couldn’t be compared to the past.
Poof.
Zhang Ruochen brought his sword down on the Golden Scorpion King. Not only did he rip the beast’s body apart, he even shattered the saint soul. An ancient Taigu Remain had died!
The fresh blood that flowed out of the corpse shone with gold. The powerful strength dyed the entire mountain gold.
“The Golden Scorpion King, 56th on the Half-Saint Rank, couldn’t fend off three of Zhang Ruochen’s strikes.”
The foot of Dragontop Mountain was silent. Some felt excited, some were unsettled, and others brimmed with an even stronger murderous intent.
Huang Yanchen, Murong Yue, Sun Dadi and the others rushed down the mountain to work together and stop the savage beasts from reaching the peak.
Princess White Li had agreed to some conditions with Zhang Ruochen, so she joined as well. She’d lost most of her memories, but even if she’d lost all of them, she still had no feelings for any savage beasts other than the White Li Cat Clan.
In the Savage Barren Territory, all the beast clans were enemies. They lived by the survival of the fittest.
At the mountaintop, Blackie was hurriedly repairing the altar. It prepared to use a ritual to help complete the divine pill. If it was completed, everyone’s cultivations would improve again.
Roar!
The Kui Bull Beast King roared angrily. Spiritual Power was added into the sound waves that flooded out, shattering the boulders.
“Use the Savage Barren Strength and kill Zhang Ruochen,” a Beast King bellowed.
“Earlier, we didn’t have the time to use the Savage Barren Strength and were hurt by him. This time, we’ll make him pay for it.”
The seven Beast Kings all showed their true forms. There was a huge ice snow leopard but also a palm-sized golden rat. They all radiated with powerful Beast King energy waves and used their ancestral weapons.
Whoosh—
The seven weapons all shone with brilliant light. They hovered over the seven Beast Kings. Many runes appeared, forming seven beams of Savage Barren Strength.
The Grade Six Beasts nearby sensed the heightened combat and all retreated. They were worried that they would be affected by the weapons.
Zhang Ruochen stood beside the Golden Scorpion King’s corpse, ignoring the Kui Bull Beast King’s sound wave attack. He fended it off with his powerful body and disdain colored his eyes. “You think you can kill me with just the Savage Barren Strength?”
“Die!”
Zhang Ruochen poured Holy Qi into his Abyss Ancient Sword, making all the runes appear on the sword. When one thousand runes appeared, the Destruction of the Thousand Patterns was activated. When two thousand runes appeared, the destructive Qi coming from the sword shot into the sky, forming a ten-thousand-foot-tall sword pillar.
Even the creatures hundreds of miles away felt the repressive aura too. Slight ripples appeared in the wind around them.
Kaboom.
Three thousand runes appeared on the surface of the Abyss Ancient Sword. That moment, dense Sword Qi shrouded the entire Dragontop Mountain. The Destruction of the Thousand Patterns made all the creatures hundreds of miles away shake uncontrollably in fear.
“No.”
The Kui Bull Beast King was the first to sense something was wrong. It immediately retracted the sound waves and escaped down the mountain. The other Beast Kings were frightened by the Abyss Ancient Sword’s destructive Qi too, but they couldn’t retreat. They had to forge on.
If they retreated, they would die even sooner.
“Fight to the death!”
“Fight!”
“Roar! Either you die or I die!”
…
The seven Beast Kings applied Holy Qi into their weapons without hesitation and attacked Zhang Ruochen simultaneously. The Abyss Ancient Sword attacked as well.
Boom, boom.
There was a string of explosions.
With merely one strike, the Abyss Ancient Sword shattered all seven ancestral weapons. The broken pieces flew out in all directions.
The next moment, cries rang out from the seven Beast Kings.
Six of them died tragically on the spot. They were turned to dust by the Destruction of the Thousand Patterns. Only the golden rat survived, but it was gravely injured and lying on the ground with its last breath.
“Don’t kill…me… I… Demonic Dragon, save…me…” it was begging for forgiveness and help.
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were cold. Walking over, he stepped down, grinding the rat into a ball of mush.
Seven Beast Kings had died in an instant. Kingly blood dyed half of the mountain red. Thick blood Qi didn’t scatter until hundreds of miles away. All the creatures in this land held their breath. Their hearts twisted in the fear that everyone felt.
The Grade Six Beasts all rushed down the mountain in panic. They were utterly and completely terrified, not daring to go against Zhang Ruochen.
“Continue to kill.”
Zhang Ruochen charged down the mountain. Instead of using the Abyss Ancient Sword, he used the Man Sword state. He turned his body into a sword and shot into the crowds of beasts with a streak of light behind him.
As for the Abyss Ancient Sword, it was refining the pieces of the seven weapons. It wanted to form 4,000 runes as soon as possible.
Poof.
Squelch.
…
The savage beasts had wanted to surround Zhang Ruochen, but the tides had turned. Zhang Ruochen was forcing the thousands of Grade Six Beasts to flee for their lives.
Huang Yanchen, Sun Dadi, and Murong Yue didn’t hesitate with killing either. They chased down from three other directions, leaving corpses scattered on the ground.
By the time the beasts fled down the flat land, Dragontop Mountain was practically covered by huge beastly corpses. Instead of chasing after them, Zhang Ruochen’s group retreated after reaching the bottom.
Bloodshed wasn’t their goal. They only wanted to produce the divine pill, so there was no point in continuing. If someone took advantage of the chaos to reach the peak, it would be irreparable.
The Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon watched the battle from the clouds and roared in anger. “Since we’re attacking the humans together, why didn’t you attack?”
Who was it communicating with? Did it invite powerful reinforcements?
Just as everyone was guessing, a huge shadow appeared in the sky. A strange red fish, more than 10,000 meters long, flew out of the clouds. It had a pair of wings that covered the sky, lifting a gale merely by flapping.
The wind was abnormally strong. Even some Half-Saints were blown away as if they were a pile of ants.
“It’s a…kun…”
“Is it the Kun Prince, sixth on the Half-Saint Rank?”
…
The kun was a domineering figure from the seas outside of Kunlun’s Field. In the legends, it was said that in ancient times, there had been a kun more than 9,000 miles long. It ate dragons, killed deities, and was known as the evillest lord of ancient times.
Of course, as time passed, the kun bloodline grew weaker and weaker. They couldn’t be compared to the ancient times at all. The Royal Prince of the Kun was different. Rather than a descendant of the Kun Race, it was a Taigu Remain. It had the purest blood and might become the greatest monster of this era.
As it arrived, rain started pouring like a flood. Dark clouds gathered and lightning and thunder interwove. This kind of scene was like the chaotic Taigu land descending upon the Blue Dragon Void World. It was impressive and terrifying.
A large force of water creatures hurried over from all directions. They stood in the torrent of rain and let out ground-shaking roars. Horrifying Spiritual Qi waves rippled out.
“Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon,” Kun Prince spoke like a human. “You couldn’t even take care of a few humans and you still dream of expelling the human race to rule Kunlun’s Field? You don’t seem strong enough!”
The Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon didn’t argue with the Kun Prince. It huffed, saying, “Why aren’t the others showing?”
Kaboom.
The ground shook violently. A huge black mountain flew over from the horizon. When it was closer, people could finally see what it was.
It wasn’t a mountain. It was a black tiger, as tall as a mountain. It had a region’s mark on its forehead and its icy aura froze the entire space.
Actually, it wasn’t a tiger. It was a bi’an—an ancient, divine creature that looked like a tiger. Like the Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon and Kun Prince, it was yet another Taigu Remain.
“Oh my!” a human Half-Saint cried out. “It’s Heavenly King Bi’an, eighth on the Half-Saint Rank!”
“Look, there’s a woman standing atop Heavenly Kin Bi’an!”
The creature was honestly too big. No one noticed that there was a human standing on its head.
It was indeed a woman. She was covered in red flames and had long fiery hair. Her skin was like white jade and red feathers danced around her. She was tiny compared to Heavenly King Bi’an. From afar, she looked like a grain of red rice.
“She…is she Fairy Rosefinch, fifth on the Half-Saint Rank?” someone asked, trembling.
No one believed that a human could stand atop Heavenly King Bi’an. Fairy Rosefinch was most suitable for her.
A glamorous carriage drove quickly through the rain, not stopping until it was almost to the peak of Dragontop Mountain. Xue Wuye moved the curtain aside, revealing his handsome face. He descended, surrounded by beautiful women.
He stood in the rain while a beautiful woman held an umbrella for him. He looked up at Heavenly King Bi’an and said, “That is indeed the Rosefinch Fairy. I met her not too long ago.”
Xue Wuye’s confirmation of the Rosefinch Fairy caused the people to grow even more excited.
The Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon, Kun Prince, Heavenly King Bi’an and the Rosefinch Fairy were the four ancient evils in legends. It was already a miracle for them to be gathered right now. With the once-in-a-millennium Time and Space Descendant, today’s battle would go down in history.
The four ancient evils may kill the Time and Space Descendant and once again become undefeatable legends. The Time and Space Descendant may also defeat them all and continue the Time and Space lineage to a supernatural position.
Either result would affect the future greatly.
