BXBX NOVEL Chapter 2126 - The Battle In The Starry Sky
Chapter 2126: The Battle In The Starry Sky
Xing Yuan and Chen Hu were shocked and fall back helplessly. They were third-level top-notch Saint Kings below the Supreme Saint, yet they could not resist Supreme Saint Jinhui’s coercion.
The so-called power of a Neverwither Supreme Saint was nothing in front of Supreme Saint Jinhui.
Seeing Supreme Saint Jinhui was about to make a move, the atmosphere became extremely solemn. Almost everyone was silent, not daring to even breathe.
“So powerful.” Zhang Ruochen was shocked. He quietly circulated the Saint Qi in his body to neutralize the Supreme Saint’s coercion.
Although Zhang Ruochen knew that the Supreme Saint Jinhui had come with ill intentions, yet he did not expect that the Supreme Saint Jinhui would attack him at the Grand Terminal of Merits.
However, even if the opponent was a powerful Emissaries Vigilant, he would not be able to make Zhang Ruochen bow his head.
Back on Mount Yueshen, Zhang Ruochen had not even flinched when faced with Blackheart Demonlord’s divine avatar, much less now.
“Supreme Saint Jinhui, please calm down.”
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
A young man in gray-white armor walked out of the crowd and walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side under great coercion.
This man looked ordinary, but he exuded an extremely noble temperament. He was born with the aura of an emperor even though he had not become a Supreme Saint.
“The first son of Emperor Ji Mie — Ji Kongyuan.”
Although it was the first time they had met, Zhang Ruochen knew his identity at first glance.
Ji Kongyuan was the first person in hundreds of years to attained Guanghan Realm’s Saint King apart from Zhang Ruochen. He could even occupy a place on the Saint King Merit List of the Celestial Court.
However, Ji Kongyuan was low-key and mysterious, so only a handful of people could really see through him.
After sizing up, Zhang Ruochen thought, ‘It seems that everyone has underestimated Ji Kongyuan. His strength has reached at least the third level below the Supreme Saint, perhaps even the second level. He hid it very well.’
Ji Kongyuan cupped his hands and humbly said, “Everyone knew about the life-and-death challenge between the Divine Envoy and Son of Darkness on True Dragon Island, Supreme Saint Jinhui. The Jinyang Twin Kings launched an attack on the Divine Envoy at this moment. They initiated infighting, but the Divine Envoy didn’t kill them. He only suppressed them. This proves that the Divine Envoy isn’t a bloodthirsty person.
“So, there must be some misunderstanding in the matter of the Divine Envoy killing Sunshine Tianzi.”
Ji Kongyuan didn’t wish to get involved, but if he allowed Zhang Ruochen to fight with the Supreme Saint Jinhui, things might become a point of no return.
No matter what, Zhang Ruochen was the Divine Envoy appointed by Yueshen. Once the matter blew up, the entire Guanghan Realm could not stay out of it.
At the same time, Ji Kong Yuan secretly transmitted his voice to Zhang Ruochen, “Divine Envoy, bear with it for a while. Don’t fight head-on with the Sunshine Civilization. Supreme Saint Jinhui is not someone easy to dealt with. If you fight with him, you will be at a disadvantage.
“Supreme Saint Jinhui’s strength has reached the pinnacle of the middle stage of Neverwilt Realm. He has condensed the Grade Eight Spearmanship Saintwill and cultivated two high-level Neverwither Saint techniques. The Saint Kings will be no match of him.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat. With his experience, he clearly knew the difference between a Supreme Saint and a Saint King.
Even the weakest Neverwither Supreme Saint would be able to cast a powerful Neverwither Saint’s body. It wouldn’t decay even after ten thousand years and wasn’t something a Saint King’s body could compare.
In addition, the power in the body of a Supreme Saint was miraculous, the control over the precepts of heaven and earth and the surrounding vitality would become exquisite. The range and amount he could control would be greatly increased. Furthermore, he would be able to cast high-level saint techniques, the power would also become even stronger.
Most importantly, once he reached the middle stage of Neverwilt Realm, he would be able to condense Saintwill. The abilities of the Supreme Saint in all aspects would be enhanced.
The so-called Saintwill was extracted from a Precept bit by bit and condense continuously. The extracted Path was like a soul, mysterious indeed.
Three thousand Major Paths, seventy-two Paths of Supreme Saint, and nine great Path of the Ancients could all condense the Saintwill.
Every cultivator cultivated more than one type of Paths. Therefore, the Saintwill that could be condensed was not limited to one type.
In theory, a Supreme Saint could at most condense nine types of Saintwill. This was an extreme number.
However, the difficulty of condensing one more type of Saintwill would increase exponentially. Furthermore, the more Saintwill there was, the better. More importantly, it depended on the grade of the Saintwill.
Some Supreme Saints who were skilled could fuse two different types of Saintwill together to form a different kind of Saintwill, it’s extraordinary.
For every Supreme Saint, forming Saintwill was not a child’s play as once it was successfully condensed, the grade would almost be fixed, and raising the grade of it would be difficult.
The Saintwill would directly affect their future achievements. Only by condensing a high-grade Saintwill would they have a chance of becoming a god. They could even become powerful gods who could control the canon.
According to the previous cultivators, if one wished to become a god, one needed to condense at least a Grade Five Saintwill.
And if one wanted to control the canon, one needed to condense a Grade Three or higher Saintwill. There was an extremely close connection between the two.
No matter which great world it was in, a Supreme Saint that could condense a Grade Five or higher Saintwill would be highly valued. They were called God Candidate, which meant that one had the hope of becoming a god.
However, it was too complex to condense a high-grade Saintwill. Even if they cultivated the Path of Supreme Saint, the Saintwill they condensed might not be of a high grade.
Supreme Saint Jinhui was a good example. He was able to extract the Precept of Spearmanship from the 72 Paths. He expended a lot of energy to condense the Spearmanship Saintwill, though it was only Grade Eight.
This kind of achievement was quite common among the Supreme Saints. However, it was not something that those Neverwither Supreme Saints at the bottom could compare to. It was a world of difference from the Saint King.
No matter how strong the Saint King was when he met a Supreme Saint who had condensed the Saintwill, he did not even have a high chance of fighting back, let alone winning.
“A Misunderstanding? Sunshine Tianzi’s Golden Sun of Destruction is in Zhang Ruochen’s hands. Everything is crystal clear. How would there be a misunderstanding?
“If it wasn’t for Immortal Minghu, Zhang Ruochen would have killed the Jinyang Twin Kings long ago instead of suppressing them. Ji Kongyuan, it’s a waste of effort for you to defend him. He’s a bloodthirsty demon deep in his blood.”
Seeing Ji Kongyuan mediate, Xing Yuan said immediately.
Ji Kongyuan frowned slightly. He looked at Xing Yuan deeply and said, “Supreme Saint Jinhui, the Divine Envoy...”
“Who do you think you are? How dare you interfere with my business? Get out of my sight!” Supreme Saint Jinhui shouted. He released an even more powerful Supreme Saint’s pressure.
An invisible force hit Ji Kongyuan’s chest, forcing him to retreat. He groaned.
Ji Kongyuan was not happy about it. As the eldest son of Emperor Ji Mie, no one had ever dared to scold him like this. This was not only insulting him but also trampling on Emperor Ji Mie’s prestige.
At the same time, Supreme Saint Jinhui had already attacked Zhang Ruochen. He condensed a large golden hand with Saint Qi and grabbed at Zhang Ruochen.
Ji Kongyuan quickly said, “Supreme Saint Jinhui, Zhang Ruochen is Yueshen’s appointed Divine Envoy. Aren’t you afraid of Yueshen’s wrath by attacking him so recklessly?”
“Zhang Ruochen killed the Tianzi of Sunshine Civilization and suppressed many Sunshine Civilization cultivators as well. An explanation is required from him and no one can protect him,” Supreme Saint Jinhui said loudly.
Supreme Saint Jinhui had come under the orders of the Sunshine Civilization’s elder god. He was full of confidence. Even the name of Yueshen could not subdue him.
There was a cold glint in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes. This time, he could not surrender. He immediately mobilized the Saint Qi in his body and struck out with his palm like lightning.
A giant green dragon flew out. It carried the unparalleled power of a Supreme Saint and crashed into Supreme Saint Jinhui’s golden hand.
BOOM!
The giant green dragon and the golden hand exploded at the same time and the powers dissipated.
Is Zhang Ruochen Crazy? He dares to retaliate. Isn’t he afraid of further angering Supreme Saint Jinhui?
He is indeed crazy. He thinks he can challenge the Supreme Saint just because he has made some achievements on the Battlefield of Merits. He really overestimates himself.
“No Saint King can fight against any of the Emissaries Vigilant. Zhang Ruochen couldn’t make his decision whether to attack or back off. He’s simply asking for trouble by openly fighting against Supreme Saint Jinhui.”
...
Seeing Zhang Ruochen fought back, many cultivators around him were surprised, as if they saw a monster in making.
They heard that Zhang Ruochen had also attacked the Emissaries Vigilant in Kunlun Realm, though it was only a clone back then which is different from his true form.
At this moment, Supreme Saint Jinhui’s eyes became colder and colder. If he couldn’t suppress Zhang Ruochen now, how could he save himself from shame?
“Zhang Ruochen, how dare you strike back at me?” Supreme Saint Jinhui shouted coldly.
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t afraid at all and snorted. “Why can’t I fight back? Just because you’re an Emissaries Vigilant and I must be at your mercy? Do you even have the heavenly decree of the Celestial Palace?”
“You are ignorant as dirt. Just because you’re disrespectful to me, I have all the reason to teach you a lesson.” A cold glint flashed in Supreme Saint Jinhui’s eyes. He extended his hand again.
Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly. He didn’t expect Supreme Saint Jinhui to be so stubborn.
It seemed that he had indeed caused a lot of trouble by killing Sunshine Tianzi. The Sunshine Civilization wouldn’t let him off easily, even if it was just to save their own reputation.
A thought came to his mind, Zhang Ruochen soared into the air and rushed out of the Grand Terminal of Merits.
The Grand Terminal of Merits had all sorts of contraptions that greatly suppressed the spaces. If he fought with Supreme Saint Jinhui in there, it would undoubtedly be disadvantageous to Zhang Ruochen.
Moreover, a battle between the Supreme Saints would probably shatter this planet.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Supreme Saint Jinhui did not hesitate and immediately chased after them.
Zhang Ruochen and the Supreme Saint Jinhui entered the dim starry sky outside the Grand Terminal of Merits in the blink of an eye.
BOOM!
Violent power fluctuations appeared in the starry sky. Bright saintly light burst forth like a comet piercing through the sky.
The cultivators in the Grand Terminal of Merits were all Saints and Saint Kings. They all have magnificent sights. Almost all of them could clearly see all the stars in the sky.
Their eyes were all fixed on Zhang Ruochen and Supreme Saint Jinhui and watched the fierce collision between the two.
It was Zhang Ruochen’s first time fighting with a real Supreme Saint. Moreover, he was a Supreme Saint in the middle stage of the immortal realm. Naturally, He wouldn’t dare to be careless.
From the beginning, Zhang Ruochen activated the Canon of Truth and the Armor of the Fire God to make up for the flaws in his physique.
Although his Five-element Chaotic Body was strong, he could only immortalize his arms. It wasn’t comparable to the immortal saint body of a Supreme Saint.
Of course, if he could become a Supreme Saint with his vessel, everything would be different.
ROAR!
With the earth-shaking roars of a dragon and an elephant, the Saint Aspect of his palm formed by a dragon and an elephant appeared on both sides of Zhang Ruochen.
In the Divine Light Sea of Qi, the divine sun formed by the Golden Sun of Destruction and the Sacred Seven-star Lingzhi’s Sun Leaf spun rapidly at the same time. It released extreme yang energy and merged into the palm technique.
Ever since Zhang Ruochen obtained the Golden Sun of Destruction, he rarely used it for direct attack. Instead, he used it to cultivate and refine his physical body, Saint Soul, and Saint Qi. At the same time, he adjusted the Yang Qi in his body that was hundreds of thousands of times more vigorous than an ordinary person.
With the aid from the Golden Sun of destruction, Zhang Ruochen’s power increased greatly when the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike was used.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen’s powerful palm technique, Supreme Saint Jinhui said with contempt. “Let me show you what a high-level saint technique truly is.”
As he spoke, Supreme Saint Jinhui quickly formed a strange seal. Large amounts of Path and power of a Supreme Saint surged out of his body. They interweaved and released a bright golden light. It quickly turned into a golden ocean and flowed into the dim starry sky, it was beautiful and dazzling.
The brilliant Saint King could indeed cultivate a high-level Neverwither saint technique, but the effect of the technique he displayed couldn’t compare to that of a Supreme Saint.
Only with the immortal saint body and the power of a Supreme Saint could the power of a high-level Neverwither saint technique be fully displayed.
Zhang Ruochen’s expression was solemn. His arms released a bright immortal saint light. Hundreds of thousands of Precepts of Truth were mobilized and infused into the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike.
In an instant, the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike exploded with nine times the attack power. The dragon and the elephant exuded vast Supreme Saint’s pressure. Their huge figure expanded throughout the starry sky.
Indeed, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have an immortal saint body or the power of a Supreme Saint. However, he had cultivated the Path of Truth to an extremely high level. With the immortalized arms, the enhancement of the Golden Sun of Destruction, the Armor of the Fire God, and the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike in his hands, he could unleash a terrifying power.
BOOM!
As if two stars had collided, the starry sky showered with endless saint light. It seemed to be able to pierce through the past, present, and future.
A dragon, an elephant, and the golden sea of stars exploded at the same time and disappeared into nothingness.
Under the impact of the powerful force, Zhang Ruochen retreated continuously. He drew a streak of light like a meteor and crashed into an asteroid thousands of miles away. It directly pierced through the asteroid and exploded into pieces. Some of the flames on Armor of the Fire God had been extinguished because of this. He had managed to block the attack.
On the other side, Supreme Saint Jinhui’s figure only swayed for a moment before he stood still again. He was like an eternal divine sun in the starry sky, shining in all directions.
“The high-level saint technique that Supreme Saint Jinhui used was actually blocked by Zhang Ruochen. How is this possible?”
“It must be that Supreme Saint Jinhui hasn’t used his full strength yet. No matter how strong Zhang Ruochen is, he is no match for the middle stage of Neverwilt Realm Supreme Saint.”
“Just wait and see. Zhang Ruochen will definitely not be able to block the next attack of the Supreme Saint Jinhui. There is no suspense in this battle at all.”
...
All of a sudden, many cultivators who were watching the battle began to discuss.
Zhang Ruochen’s performance was stunning that even the Supreme Saint Jinhui could not suppress him immediately.
Xing Yuan whispered objectively, “Zhang Ruochen, the more powerful you are, the angrier the Supreme Saint Jinhui will be. Even if you have great abilities, you can not escape the suppression.”
“If Supreme Saint Jinhui can miss and kill Zhang Ruochen, that would be the best.” Chen Hu sneered.
Zhang Ruochen had grown up and become a great threat. No matter what, the sects of the Celestial Court did not want to see him become a Supreme Saint or even a god.
Since Zhang Ruochen was exceptionally talented in cultivating the Path of Time and Space, the sects of the Celestial Court worried that he would become the second Saint Monk Xumi. That would be a huge problem.
