God Emperor - Chapter 1928
Chapter 1928: Supreme Saint-level Elephant Soul
After a long while, all of the Sword Qi was annihilated. In the end, the Sword Qi failed to destroy the multi-dimension and obviously failed to cause any damage to Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen closed the Secret Tome of Time and Space, and the multi-dimension disappeared as everything returned to normal. The atmosphere was calm again.
It was just that Luo Sha had already lfeft, and she was nowhere to be found.
Luo Sha herself was a master of time and space, if she wanted to escape, there were scarce few that could hold her back.
From their encounter on the Zuling Battlefield of Merits, Zhang Ruochen had dealt with Luo Sha a total of three times now. He had gotten the upper hand the first two times, but this time, Luo Sha had seized the initiative instead.
“The hilt that Luo Sha got is not trivial. If she breaks into the Nether Dungeon, she might be able to release Lord Ming. I need to warn Awesome, as well as the Elder Patriarch, and let them take up precautions.”
Zhang Ruochen was a little worried. He immediately wrote and sent out one communication talisman.
Luo Sha had been to the Sword Vault, and it was very possible that she had a clear grasp of the vault. That came as a huge threat, and they had to guard against it.
Thankfully, Awesome, the Little Taoist and Shi Mingyuan were standing guard in the Sword Vault. It would not be easy for anyone to break into the Sword Vault now.
As long as they were prepared, Luo Sha would not be able to enter the Sword Vault to cause trouble even if she wanted to.
“I wonder how Fairy Yuan is faring. I better have a look!”
Zhang Ruochen recomposed himself and flew in the direction of Fairy Yuan’s retreat.
The rakshasa powerhouse sent to deal with Fairy Yuan was not any ordinary one, and his strength was probably not much weaker than the Blackflame General.
Not long after, Zhang Ruochen appeared above a large river as Fairy Yuan and that rakshasa powerhouse fought each other.
As soon as Zhang Ruochen arrived, he happened to see Fairy Yuan activate an exquisite Jasper Blade and cut off one of the rakshasa powerhouse’s arm.
“It looks like I’ve been worried for nothing. Fairy Yuan’s strength is far stronger than I expected. Sure enough, all nine fairies of the Nine Immortal Beauties are no pushovers. Not only do they have absolute beauty, but their strength is also top-tier,” Zhang Ruochen said in admiration.
The rakshasa powerhouse retreated quickly, and the arm that had been cut off had already disappeared into nothingness.
No, to be precise, it had been reduced into millions of particles of origin that were invisible to the naked eye. The Path of Origins was truly terrifying.
“That blade is unusual, and it has a powerful aura of origin. Was this a treasure of origin?” A curious look appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as his gaze was fixed on the jasper blade in Fairy Yuan’s hand.
With the exception of the Nine Great Eternal Paths master, anyone else who wanted to cultivate the Nine Great Eternal Paths needed external objects to do so.
For example, to cultivate the Path of Truth, one needed to go to the Celestial Domain of Truth, and use the Engravings of Truth to comprehend it.
The Fane of Origin had long since disappeared, and aside from being born as a Master of Origin, someone could only learn the Precepts of Origins by obtaining the Path of Origins’ treasures.
Dushh!
The powerful rakshasa used his hand as a blade and cut off half of his arm.
He was forced to because the wound on his arm contained some remaining Power of Origin, and it was slowly disintegrating his body. If he did not cut it off, his entire person would soon be disintegrated into billions of origin particles.
Turning his gaze, the powerful rakshasa looked at Zhang Ruochen, who was standing three hundred meters away, and he suddenly furrowed his brows.
Fairy Yuan was already very difficult to deal with, and had already caused him to suffer grievious wounds.
Now Zhang Ruochen had arrived, it meant that things had just gone from bad to worse.
Unexpectedly, the desire to take flight appeared in the rakshasa powerhouse’s heart. If he were to continue fighting, he would very well perish there.
Baaaaam!!
The rakshasa powerhouse suddenly jumped down from the air and fled directly into the river.
“Don’t you think it’s a little too late to try and escape now?” Zhang Ruochen said.
Using his dimensional technique, a massive dimensional rift appeared and cut the river off.
While the rakshasa powerhouse reacted quickly, there was still an extremely deep wound on his waist. It almost bisected him in two, and blood gushed out of the wound.
Just as he was about to change direction, Fairy Yuan flashed over while the Jasper Blade transformed into countless origin particles that were invisible to the naked eye. They then entered his body through the wound on his waist.
“Ahhhh!!”
The rakshasa powerhouse screamed.
The next moment, his body disintegrated as if it had evaporated.
Immediately after, Fairy Yuan used a secret origin technique and actually restored the rakshasa powerhouse’s body. However, the body was without any vitality since the soul had been annihilated, leaving only an empty shell.
“Thank you Master Zhang for helping me.” Fairy Yuan smiled.
Zhang Ruochen said, “With your strength, even if I didn’t act, that rakshasa powerhouse would never have escaped, Fairy. Your Path of Origins is really powerful, and that opened my eyes to its strength.”
A strange look appeared in Fairy Yuan’s eyes, and she said, “I did not think that you would be able to tell that I was using the Path of Origins, Master Zhang, but I am only a cultivator, and I am not very powerful”
“It so happens that I have some understanding of the Path of Origins, and seeing the techniques you used, so I have some guesses of my own.”
Zhang Ruochen made up a reason but did not divulge the fact that the Thousand Star Maiden was the Master of Origin.
Fairy Yuan did not dwell on this question either. Instead, she asked, “Master Zhang, have you learned of Luo Yi’s true identity?”
Zhang Ruochen nodded. “Luo Yi is the Rakshasa Princess, Luo Sha, but unfortunately, I was unable to restrain her.”
“So it turned out to be her… Luo Sha has many tricks up her sleeves, and dealing with her is really a difficult thing to do.” Fairy Yuan had a look of realization.
In the past, Luo Sha’s danger index on the Maleficent Records of Infernal Court’s Ten Clans was seven, which was already not low, and now her danger index would probably be even higher.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen went on guard.
Whoosh!
Zhang Ruochen’s figure suddenly moved one foot to the side.
Whoosh!
A halberd ripped through the air, and stabbed through the afterimage left behind by Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen instantly turned around, and his eyes was affixed on two figures slowly walking down the river.
It was a man and a woman, both with extraordinary temperaments, and the aura exuding from their bodies were even more powerful.
The man stretched out his hand and grabbed the void, and the halberd that he had tossed earlier flew back into his hands.
“A Deathkin evolved from the Corpsewights.”
Zhang Ruochen used the Eye of Divine Seal and saw through the identity of the two.
He could tell that the male and female had powerful bodies that were no weaker than his own. Plus, the two were at the pinnacle of the Heaven’s Reach realm, which was higher than that of the rakshasa powerhouse. He knew that they were no pushovers at first glance.
From the moment they appeared, the two had locked their eyes on Zhang Ruochen, and that caused Zhang Ruochen’s heart to sink slightly. Their appearance there was probably no coincidence, and they were after him.
Was he currently targeted by the Deathkin because he had broken into the underground space beneath Xianji Mountain?
“Zhang Ruochen, come with us!” the male Deathkin said coldly.
Zhang Ruochen replied, “Why should I go with you? Where are you taking me?”
“Cease your prattling. Our lord wants to see you. If you refuse to come obediently, we can only use force.” The male Deathkin waved his halberd, looking extremely domineering.
Zhang Ruochen continued to ask, “Who is your lord? Yuanmo Shenzi?”
He was really curious about who wanted to see him, so much so that the person sent two elites over.
The person had to be a great figure among the Deathkin to be using such force, and he even guessed that the person might be related to the Fane of Destiny.
“Zhang Ruochen, you ask too many questions. Are you coming with us or not?” the female Deathkin said impatiently.
As she spoke, a small pitch-black bell materialized in her hand. The bell was covered with arcane patterns and exuded a very bizarre aura. One could tell it was no ordinary object at first glance.
Zhang Ruochen extended his hand, and the Ancient Abyssal Blade appeared in his hand as he faintly said, “I don’t like being threatened by others, especially when it is an Infernal Court cultivator.”
“It looks like we need to teach you what pain is first.” A fierce look filled the male Deathkin’s eyes, and he instantly charged forth.
As soon as he moved, a giant elephantine phantom appeared behind him. It was massive, and its aura even more terrifying, clearly had surpassed the realm of a Saint King.
A light flashed in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, and he said to himself, “This person actually refined a Supreme Saint-level elephant soul in his body. I cannot allow him to escape.”
If he wanted to cultivate the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike’s twelve technique to full completion, he needed to refine Supreme Saint dragon soul and elephant soul into both of his arms.
However, the Supreme Saint dragon soul and elephant soul were too precious. Even if he had enough Saint Stones, he had no way to purchase them.
Seeing the male Deathkin before him actually possess a Supreme Saint elephant soul was literally a gift from the heavens. How could Zhang Ruochen let it go?
Sword Force blasted out as the Ancient Abyssal Blade was slashed at the Deathkin.
The male Deathkin waved his halberd, and with the aid of the Supreme Saint-level elephant soul, the power unleashed was beyond imagination. With a strike, the entire space felt like it was about to rend open.
All of the Sword Force was warded off, and he struck back as surges of overwhelmingly evil Death Qi rained upon Zhang Ruochen.
“Raaaawr!”
The Supreme Saint elephant soul let out a roar, and the sound wave formed into terrifying ripples as it struck out in all directions.
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed as he became serious and dared not be careless.
A Heaven’s Reach-realm powerhouse with a Supreme Saint elephant soul… The strength of his foe was not to be underestimated.
“Sword Nine.”
Zhang Ruochen swung the Ancient Abyssal Blade, and unleashed the arcane sword techniques he had learned from the Wordless Sword Tome.
Boom!!
The sword force collided with the evil Death Qi and the sound waves, creating a devastating shock wave that caused the river to instantly dry up. The ground split and sank simultaneously as well.
The male Deathkin suddenly rushed before Zhang Ruochen and swung his halberd in a deadly downward stroke.
Using his powerful body and strength, he favored close combat the most. Only through this way he could fully utilise all of his advantages.
Zhang Ruochen raised his left hand, and the acupuncture points on his arm opened as a torrent of majestic Saint Qi was continuously infused into the Fire God’s Bracers. It caused the bracers to instantly light up in flames and clash with the halberd.
At the same time, Zhang Ruochen picked up the Ancient Abyssal Blade with his right hand and focused all of his physical might into a slash.
The purple godstone inlaid within the sword hilt glowed faintly, causing the Ancient Abyssal Blade to be extremely heavy.
Baaaaam!!!
The Ancient Abyssal Blade smashed dead onto the Deathkin’s body, and the strength was like a meteor falling from the sky.
The male Deathkin did not care at first and felt that Zhang Ruochen’s slash would pose no threat to him.
However, when the Ancient Abyssal Blade really made contact with his body, his expression changed drastically.
The terrifying force brought upon by the Ancient Abyssal Blade was beyond the male Deathkin’s ability to resist, and his entire person fell into the ground at extreme speed.
Boom!
The earth shuddered, as though a massive earthquake had struck, and the ground shattered while a massive crater, which was thousands of feet deep, appeared right in the middle. Dust flew all over, and nothing was visible at all.
