With Zhang Ruochen’s current control over space, no one under the Saint Realm could sense the ripples even when he used the Spatial Move.
When Zhang Ruochen vanished from the spot, Su Bai froze in confusion. The fatal hit had actually missed.
How could Gu Linfeng just disappear?
Almost at the same time, Zhang Ruochen appeared soundlessly above Su Bai. His hands had turned blood-red. The six apertures of his palm opened up as he slammed down.
It was the Seven-Apertures Blood Palm.
However, Su Bai was a true seventh level Half-Saint. She reacted extremely fast. When she felt the power waves behind her, she immediately turned around and whipped her sword up.
Because the move was so fast and powerful, her arm cracked. It sounded like the air was popping.
Boom!
The palm and broadsword clashed. The Seven-Apertures Blood Palm was so powerful. How could Su Bai stop it with the power she gathered in panic?
When she was hit by the palm, Su Bai’s organs all shook violently. All the Blood Qi in her tumbled and she quickly dropped to the ground.
Boom!
Su Bai crashed into the middle of a mountain. The mountain caved in, creating a hundred-meter-wide ditch. There was a string of loud noises. An avalanche happened on the 8,000-meter-tall mountain, quickly filling the ditch.
Below it, white smoke rolled down. A cold current shot into the air.
Su Bai wasn’t a weakling. She was a high level Half-Saint and had many powerful tactics. To avoid suffering a sneak attack, Zhang Ruochen didn’t rush into the snow below. Instead, he used his Spiritual Power to locate Su Bai.
His Spiritual Power realized that there were powerful life pulses under the snow. It was evident that Su Bai was heavily hurt but still alive. This meant that Zhang Ruochen had to be more careful lest the tides be turned again.
“Why are you attacking me?”
Zhang Ruochen stood in the air, looking down sharply. At the same time, a blood-red dragon soul rushed out. It wrapped around him, radiating with aggressive domination.
Su Bai’s voice sounded under the snow. “How can you only be a second level Half-Saint with such a powerful palm? You should be a seventh level Half-Saint too, right?”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t reply. Instead, he asked, “Your armor has the unique mark that only someone from the Nether Heavenly Palace has. This means that you should be a Banner Lord of the Nether Heavenly Palace. I don’t remember offending you. Speak! Who sent you to kill me?”
An eerie laugh came from under the snow. “Come down to my side and I’ll tell you.”
Zhang Ruochen glanced. “Do you dare me to message Discipline King Haiming now and tell him that a Banner Lord of the Nether Heavenly Palace has tried to kill me? It should be easy for a Discipline King to deal with you, right?”
He only said this to force Su Bai out. He wasn’t really planning on messaging Discipline King Haiming. After all, if Discipline King Haiming learned of this, Zhang Ruochen would be exposed.
Boom!
Su Bai shot out through the snow and landed at the top of the mountain. She grasped the broadsword in two hands and formed a hundred-foot-wide Sword Qi territory that covered herself.
Her rough face was pale and there was dark red blood at the corner of her lips.
“You want to message Discipline King Haiming? You think you can escape today?”
Su Bai’s expression darkened. She looked to the northeast and yelled, “Zhao Shiqi, still not fighting?”
“Another strong cultivator?”
Zhang Ruochen once again spread his Spiritual Power thousands of miles in range. He quickly found subtle spiritual movements in a nearby cull.
Zhao Shiqi’s Spiritual Power was stronger than Zhang Ruochen, so he could hide himself. Thus, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t find him unless he searched carefully.
Gu Linfeng’s power had naturally shocked Zhao Shiqi. However, since they’d already attacked, they had to kill Gu Linfeng. They couldn’t let him escape.
They couldn’t survive Discipline King Haiming’s anger.
Zhao Shiqi and Su Bai didn’t know that Zhang Ruochen had the same thought. He’d already decided to kill Su Bai and Zhao Shiqi so his true abilities wouldn’t be exposed.
Zhao Shiqi gathered his Spiritual Power toward the white leaf. Various complicated lines emerged on the leaf. It radiated with blinding white light.
Whoosh!
A large mass of interwoven white patterns flew out, printing on the thousands of feet of snow across from him. At the same time, strong wind blew up the snow on the mountain, revealing the dirt underneath...
No.
It wasn’t dirt. It was a beast’s skin.
Many white runes surged out of the leaf, printing on the beast’s skin. Then the huge “mountain” started shaking. It grew taller, transforming into an elephant that was thousands of meters tall. Its entire body radiated with a beastly aura.
Black scales the size of dishes covered its body. If it lay on the ground and was covered in ice and snow, it would be no different from a mountain.
Even Zhang Ruochen had never seen such a large creature.
“The Celestial Divine Elephant, a sixth level savage beast.” Zhang Ruochen stared at the huge beast, his expression serious. He reached out and summoned the Abyss Ancient Sword.
The Celestial Divine Elephant was comparable to a ninth level Half-Saint. It was definitely the strongest beast below the Saint level.
If it was used to besiege a city, very few Defensive Formations could withstand its collisions.
Of course, its weakness was also obvious. It was too large and wasn’t agile enough. It was suitable for battles with many people. It wasn’t suitable for a solo fight against a top figure.
Whoosh.
A long bridge consisting of wind formed under Zhao Shiqi. He flew to the top of the Celestial Divine Elephant. Then he used a taming technique to control the elephant and attack Zhang Ruochen.
The elephant lowered its head. Dark steam tumbled out of its mouth.
There were whooshes in the air current. It contained countless wind blades. The blades formed a miles long flood that covered the entire sky as it flooded toward Zhang Ruochen.
This was the All-Direction Divine Wind. It was a Talent Martial Technique of the Celestial Divine Elephants. It only had to exhale once to kill all organisms within hundreds of miles.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to go against the Celestial Divine Elephant. He used the Spatial Move and vanished. He reappeared to the left of Su Bai.
I’ll kill this seventh level Half-Saint first and then deal with the Celestial Divine Elephant and beast trainer. Zhang Ruochen planned his strategy in his mind.
When Su Bai saw Zhang Ruochen charge over, she didn’t escape. Instead, she gathered her Holy Qi to engage him.
To Su Bai, Zhang Ruochen was just a seventh level Half-Saint. Earlier, she’d completely underestimated Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation, which was why the palm attack had caught her by surprise.
If they fought seriously, she didn’t have to lose to this junior with her rich battle experience. However, she didn’t know that Zhang Ruochen’s Seven-Apertures Blood Palm had only released 30 percent of its power because he hadn’t accumulated enough.
If Zhang Ruochen had used its full power, Su Bai wouldn’t be able to get up from the ground.
“Divine Buddha One-hit Kill.”
Su Bai grasped her sword and drew a circle. The powerful Broadsword Qi formed a large ring of ripples.
Whoosh! The Way of Broadsword rules all gathered over, merging with the saint broadsword. The dense Broadsword Qi grouped together, hovering behind Su Bai.
Her arms gathered power and she brought the sword down. Thousands upon thousands of Broadsword Qi flew out as well, wailing.
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t intimidated. He maintained his original speed. Just as he was about to crash against the Broadsword Qi, his legs bent. He jumped up and cut down as he uttered, “Sword Three.”
Whoosh!
This was a plain and undecorated sword, but it connected the sky with the earth. All the Broadsword Qi was destroyed.
A thread of blood appeared from Su Bai’s forehead to her chin. She stood frozen in place. All her Hoy Qi had gone out of control.
Boom! Her body, including the black armor, split in half and flew to either side. Blood tumbled out, dying the snowy ground red.
This one strike had killed a seventh level Half-Saint, turning her into two halves of a corpse at the top of the mountain.
The Abyss Ancient Sword buzzed happily. It flew out of Zhang Ruochen’s hands. It melted Su Bai’s armor and saint sword and absorbed it.
If Su Bai had wanted to escape, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t have killed her at all. However, she’d overestimated her abilities and underestimated Zhang Ruochen. She’d underestimated Zhang Ruochen the entire time.
Zhao Shiqi saw this from the top of the Celestial Divine Elephant and was entirely shocked. “Su Bai’s cultivation is very advanced. How could she not stop Gu Linfeng’s sword? No, he’s skilled in palm techniques. How can his sword techniques be so high?”
Zhao Shiqi felt that something was wrong. However, he didn’t retreat. He extended a finger and hit the center of the Celestial Divine Elephant’s head.
Strong Spiritual Power spread from his fingers, forming 378 beams of light that covered the elephant entirely. Then the elephant roared. It raised a huge leg and started stomping down at Zhang Ruochen.
This one foot was more than 200 meters long. It pressed down like a black demonic cloud.
Four walls of wind rose up around Zhang Ruochen, surrounding him. The Celestial Divine Elephant was too powerful. It was only one foot, but the immense power had locked onto Zhang Ruochen. He couldn’t escape at all.
