God Emperor - Chapter 577
Chapter 577: Wutian From the East in the Five Heros
“Really? I’m just telling you, the Chens are indeed the Dominators of the Eastern Region.”
In the Saint Prince’s Mansion, there was a young voice that carried an air of arrogance.
“Howl!”
Suddenly, a savage beast cried out. Above the Saint Prince’s Mansion, the dark clouds were blown by the howling wind.
A behemoth glowing with golden light dashed out from the depths of the Savage Beast Lake at the Saint Prince’s Mansion. It stepped into the void and flew from the mansion wall to the Ghost Saint.
A young man was sitting on its back. He wore a white silver armor, held a green Sky Piercer, and had a port-wine mark between his eyebrows. His eyes pierced through the dark clouds like two blue thunderbolts, forming two beams of light.
Seeing that man rush ahead, the Chens burned with righteous indignation.
“That is… Saint Wutian…”
A young woman from the Chen family almost fainted from excitement after seeing Chen Wutian, who was sitting on the behemoth’s back.
“Since Saint Wutian has launched an attack, the Ghost Saint will certainly die. There is no happy ending for whoever is brave enough to provoke the Chens.”
“Saint Wutian” Chen Wutian, was the youngest Saint of the Chens. For thousands of years, he was known as the first conqueror. At 72 years old, he entered the Sacred Realm and was given the title, “Wutian.”
He was 94 years old, hence considered relatively young among other saints.
In Kunlun’s Field, there was a saying that “It is unlikely for a man less than 100 years old to become a saint.”
Those who were able to become saints before 100 years old were all uncontested talents.
Chen Wutian became a saint at 72 years old. He was undoubtedly talented and was dubbed the soul of the young warriors of the Chens.
Seeing Chen Wutian rush ahead, Ghost Saint felt nervous to be facing such a formidable enemy. He began to mobilize the Holy Qi and injected it into the Bloodsoul Banner.
With a “whirr”, it fluttered in the wind.
In an instant, blasts of evil winds came up between heaven and earth. 99,999 blood-red ghost rushed out of the Bloodsoul Banner. Some of them were standing in the void while others were standing on the ground. The scene was becoming extremely strange, almost as if the demons were eating gods.
“Chen Wutian, how dare you, a junior, fight against me? Today, I will teach you a lesson on the Prince of the Eastern Region.”
The Ghost Saint stood in the void and brandished the banner. Suddenly, all ghost soldiers of the universe rushed to Chen Wutian.
Standing on the ground and looking up above, one could see a dark cloud shaping into strange forms. The clouds made threatening gestures as if it was about to devour Chen Wutian.
The Ghost Saint had profound cultivation and he had the Bloodsoul Banner, which was an amazing weapon but he never exerted the power of Holy Road until now.
The crowd below him felt suffocated at the sight of this. The clouds looked like an opening of the Gates of Hell.
“The Ghost Saint is unexpectedly strong. No wonder the imperial court has not succeeded in killing him even after sending out troops numerous times to suppress Cave of Nine Deaths,” Third Elder Brother Wan Ke said.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “Is Chen Wutian capable of defeating him?”
Wan Ke smiled but remained silent.
An earth-shattering shout was heard from the clouds.
“Break!”
Chen Wutian lifted the Sky Piercer and condensed Holy Qi. As he launched an attack, 99,999 ghost images shattered into pieces and turned into wisps of smoke.
The Ghost Saint was struck with panic but maintained his cold demeanor. He did not expect Chen Wutian to be so powerful.
With one strike, he broke through the Demons Array.
The Ghost Saint took a step back and without knowing it, Chen Wutian had already come to kill him. Like a shooting star, the tip of the Sky Piercer stabbed him straight into his eyes.
Ghost Saint immediately waved the banner and hid behind.
“Stab!”
The Sky Piercer quickly rotated and formed a giant vortex to tear down the banner. The banner shattered to pieces and flew to different directions.
Chen Wutian brandished the Sky Piercer without giving Ghost Saint a chance to fight back.
“Swish!”
The sword’s tip cut a long hole in Ghost Saint’s abdomen, nearly cutting Ghost Saint’s body into two.
“Since you’re the Ghost Saint, you should be a ghost rather than a man.”
Chen Wutian showed heroic spirit. In a flash, he came up before Ghost Saint and attacked his chest with his palm. His chest was pierced through, and his back was torn apart.
The sound of his ribs and backbones cracking could be heard from dozens of miles away.
“Boom!”
His body was thrown out and fell to the ground. He was seriously injured and almost became a semi-invalid.
“Howl!”
In the other direction, endless flames burst forth from Hammer Saint and the surrounding area within a hundred-mile radius became a sea of fire.
His body started expanding and became ten times higher than before. He transformed into a Giant-Spirit War God so that all his meridians turned clear, like iron chains buried in his muscles.
Heaven-shaking war hammer in his hand turned gigantic, like a crimson hill.
The heaven-shaking war hammer was made of extraterrestrial meteorite. Only a few people were capable of moving it, even if they’re a Saint.
Among all the saints in the Black Market, Hammer Saint had the best physical strength.
As he lowered his arms, the Heaven-shaking war hammer thrust down and hit Chen Wutian on his head.
“Swoosh!”
Instead of retreating, Chen Wutian moved forward. He waved the Sky Piercer with a single hand and chopped at the war hammer, sending both the Heaven-shaking war hammer and Hammer Saint flying.
“Hammer Saint’s power is just so-so.”
Chen Wutian struck again and the Sky Piercer directly chopped Hammer Saint, putting him in the mud and leaving a big pit on the ground.
When Hammer Sage climbed out of the pit, the only thing people could see was the left side of his head that was bleeding and the crack in his skull.
His left ear and left arm were also cut off by the Sky Piercer. Half of his body had been badly mutilated.
Luckily, his vital parts were not injured in the attack. Otherwise, Chen Wutian’s attack would have killed him.
The young generation of the Chens was excited and delighted. Whoever provoked the Chens needed to pay a heavy price. The Saints were no exception.
What did it mean to be superior?
This was a true testament to what a real peerless superior really was!
Both Ghost Saint and Hammer Saint were old demons who had been famous for more than 300 years. Everyone in the Eastern Region knew about them. Common warriors regarded them as supernatural beings, so nobody dared to disrespect them.
However, Saint Wutian was able to defeat the two saints at lightning speed. This made the Chens very happy and enhanced their popularity.
“Wutian from the East and Wufa from the West. He really deserves his reputation,” Third Elder Brother Wan Ke heaved a great sigh.
“Wutian from the East and Wufa from the West” was the first sentence of Five Heroes.
“Wutian from the East” referred to Chen Wutian from the Eastern Region.
The whole Five Heroes was:
Wutian from the East and Wufa from the West. Xinshu from the South and Yutian from the North. Wan Zhaoyi from the Centre of Nine Province. Ten years is a short time, and one hundred years is a long time. Who has been dominating the Kunlun’s Field in the past hundred years? Read the Five Heroes to learn about the world events.
The Five Heroes included the five most outstanding talents in the Kunlun’s Field in a century. Chen Wutian was one of them.
For the five people in the Five Heroes, becoming first on the Heaven Board was like winning a child-fight. It was not something that they cared about.
Chen Wutian rode on the behemoth’s back and came before Ghost Saint. He pointed the Sky Piercer at Ghost Saint’s chest and said, “You two were brave enough to cause trouble in Saint Prince’s Mansion. Shouldn’t you know your capabilities better?”
“Those two wouldn’t dare pick a fight with the Chen family alone. How about counting me in?”
Out of the dark clouds in the sky, a skinny elder walked out.
He had long black hair and looked like he was over 70 years old. He was wearing a livid cloth gown and a pair of plain straw sandals. He seemed like a normal person, as he had no strong aura fluctuations.
If someone were to throw a stone on the street randomly, it would probably hit an elder like him.
“City Governor, we are so honored to meet you.”
Bu Qianfan and evil cultivators from the Black Market got down on one knee and saluted to the elder.
Even the seriously injured Hammer Saint also lowered his head and bowed respectfully.
Chen Wutian showed a grim look on his face and narrowed his eyes into slits, “Nine Serenity Sword Saint, why didn’t you inform me earlier about your arrival to East Region Saint City?”
Nine Serenity Sword Saint was one of the Three Great Sword Saints in the Eastern Region and he was also the city governor of the Nine Serenity City. He was a top evil superior and central member of the society.
As long as he continued to stomp, the whole Eastern Region would shake.
“You deserve to be ‘Wutian from the East.’ An after-born should be feared!”
Nine Serenity Sword Saint smiled lightly and continued, “I come here this time mainly for that junior from the Saint Academy. He killed my disciple Huang Shenyi, so I will not just stand by and watch. As long as you are willing to give him to me, I can walk away right now.”
Without a doubt, everybody knew that he was talking about Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen had offended the Black Market. It took a lot of effort to cultivate a young master and seven Emissaries. However, all of them were killed by him.
Zhang Ruochen dug Di Yi’s Demon’s Heart and almost killed the young master of the Black Market. Then, he captured Ghost Saint’s disciple Orange Star Emissary and killed Nine Serenity Sword Saint’s disciple Yellow God Emissary.
Green-robed Emissary was not killed by Zhang Ruochen but he died in the Xuanwu Primitive World. Therefore, all the saints of the Black Market held Zhang Ruochen accountable for all these deaths.
Zhang Ruochen’s actions had embarrassed the Black Market again and again.
How could Evil Warriors of the Black Market continue to endure?
