Chapter 2291: Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill
Seeing Zhang Ruochen kick the ax with his foot, cultivators watching the projection all over Infernal Court exclaimed.
Even those cultivators who knew that Zhang Ruochen had a divine leg looked solemn. They held their breath, thinking that his action was too risky. What he had was just a divine leg; he was not a real god. If he fought head-on with a Supreme Saint like Warlord Mara, he might be at a great disadvantage.
Just then, the red battle-ax and the flaming cloud emitted from Zhang Ruochen’s left leg collided fiercely.
Boom!
The dark void space of the universe became dazzling like a flaming flower blooming.
In the next moment, Zhang Ruochen and Warlord Mara retreated at the same time like lightning. They were evenly matched. Neither of them had the upper hand.
“How could he...
...block it!”
Countless cultivators gasped. They had a deeper understanding of Zhang Ruochen’s power. They immediately understood that their worries were unnecessary.
Warlord Mara was in disbelief. He couldn’t defeat Zhang Ruochen, who was in Neverwilt Realm, with his cultivation at the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm.
“Again, try my Hundred Beast Combat Body Art.”
Thunder and lightning surged out from behind Warlord Mara. They gathered into a sea of thunder and lightning. The illusory images of beast souls appeared. They all unleashed the aura of a Supreme Saint.
BzzzzzT
RAWRRRRRRR!
The sound of the lightning and the roars of the beasts resounded through the heavens and earth.
In the past, before Mara reached the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm, when he had only attained the minor completion for Hundred Beast Combat Body Art, he fought a Dhisan Supreme Saint, who newly entered Thousand-Koan Realm, to a draw.
Minor completion stage of Hundred Beast Combat Body Art meant that each of the Thunder Beast Emperors had the combat strength of a Nine-Step Saint King.
With the help of the power of the beasts, it was difficult for Warlord Mara to meet an opponent of the same cultivation rank.
Now, not only had he made a breakthrough in cultivation, but he had also made a breakthrough in his Hundred Beast Combat Body Art. His combat power had reached a terrifying level.
The power of each Thunder Beast Soul had reached the level of a Supreme Saint of Neverwilt Realm.
Each of his attacks had 100 Supreme Saints of Neverwilt Realm supporting him. Even an ordinary Supreme Saint of the Thousand-Koan Realm would be injured if he attacked with all his strength.
Before Zhang Ruochen broke through to Hundred-Shackle Realm, he did not plan to fight with a superior like Warlord Mara. He waved Violet Gourd in his hand and said, “If you don’t want to be expelled from the Celestial-Hunting battlefield, feel free to attack me.”
Warlord Mara thought of something and looked at the black-robed high priest in the distance. He gritted his teeth and said, “Zhang Ruochen, are you a coward? If you have the guts, then fight me openly.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly and ignored Warlord Mara. He used Great Dimensional Shift and left the area.
A fight without benefits was a pure waste of energy.
Warlord Mara was not a brainless person. He was very calculative.
Just like back then, to pursue Luo Sha, he had secretly bribed the handmaidens around Luo Sha. To deal with Zhang Ruochen, he had used Mu Lingxi’s Spatial Bracelet to lure Zhang Ruochen to the Arena of Life and Death.
At this moment, he seemed to be challenging Zhang Ruochen, but in fact, he wanted to snatch Violet Gourd.
Warlord Mara’s angry roar spread throughout the universe. “When I have accumulated 500,000 points, I will personally tear you into pieces.”
Saint Yanhong’s skin recovered. Her skin was as smooth as silk, and her face was beautiful. However, there was a stern look in her eyes.
Qiang Zun’s sword and more than 3,000 black-armored corpse kings of Black-Feathered Corpse Emperor had been taken away by Violet Gourd. Of course, they wouldn’t allow Zhang Ruochen to leave so easily. They immediately chased after him.
Without weapons during the Celestial-Hunting battle, their combat strength would be greatly reduced.
3,000 black-armored corpse kings were one of the most important trump cards of the Black-feathered Corpse Emperor. They couldn’t lose them.
Zhang Ruochen teleported himself 17 times until he was 10,000 miles away. When he sensed that the two powerful figures were still chasing him, he stopped.
“You two are so persistent. Do you want to take my gourd?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
“Don’t misunderstand us, Supreme Saint Ruochen. The pill snatching competition is over. Of course, we won’t break the rules and continue to attack. But...”
Qiang Zun’s stiff face revealed a troubled expression. “We actually want to discuss something with you, Supreme Saint Ruochen.”
Zhang Ruochen held the gourd in his hand and said, “You want to take back the battle sword and the black-armored Corpse King?”
Black-feathered Corpse Emperor let out a hoarse voice, “We fought because of the Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill. In reality, we don’t have any deep enmity with you, Supreme Saint Ruochen.
“If you are willing to return my black-armored corpse king, I promise that I will not participate in the battle against you.”
Qiang Zun said, “That’s what I mean.”
Seeing that Zhang Ruochen did not respond immediately, Black-feathered Corpse Emperor said, “You have made too many enemies of each clan. If Qiang Zun and I become your enemy too, your situation will be even more difficult.”
Qiang Zun said, “If you don’t return my sword and the black-armored Corpse King, I’m afraid we can only follow you. When that time comes, your movement will be restricted.”
“Are you threatening me?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
Black-feathered Corpse Emperor said, “No! I don’t like to beat around the bush. If there’s anything you want, just say it.
“There are no eternal allies or enemies on the Celestial-Hunting battlefield. All cultivators only care about their own interest.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “In that case, I won’t beat around the bush.
“Qiang Zun, your sword is a Class Four Regal Weapon, right? Black-feathered Corpse Emperor, each of your 3,669 black-armored Corpse Kings is with combat strength close to a Saint King’s, right?
“If you didn’t have them, your combat strength would definitely fall to the bottom of the list of Great Perfection stage of Hundred-Shackle Realm.”
Qiang Zun and Black-feathered Corpse Emperor didn’t deny it.
Zhang Ruochen said, “To be honest, a Class Four Regal Weapon is nothing to me. As for the black-armored Corpse Kings, even if I had 10,000 of them, I wouldn’t be able to control them. They have no value to me.
“It’s not a big deal to return them to you.”
Qiang Zun and Black-feathered Corpse Emperor were overjoyed.
Zhang Ruochen changed the topic. “But if you want me to return them to you, you have to agree to two conditions.”
“Go ahead,”Qiang Zun said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “First, during the Celestial-Hunting battle, you are not allowed to participate in anything against Bloodysky Clan and me.”
“Of course.”
Qiang Zun and Black-feathered Corpse Emperor agreed without hesitation.
“Second, during the Celestial-Hunting battle, you have to do something for me,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Qiang Zun and Black-feathered Corpse Emperor looked at each other and hesitated.
Zhang Ruochen knew what they were worried about. He said, “Don’t worry. I won’t let you do anything that will harm the interests of our clans. Both of you are Hundred-Shackle Realm elites at Great Perfection, first-class figures in the Celestial-Hunting battle. What’s there to worry about?”
“Okay,” said Qiang Zun. “As long as it doesn’t harm Stone Clan’s interests, I can help you with something.”
Black-feathered Corpse Emperor nodded and agreed.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Swear first.”
Black-feathered Corpse Emperor frowned. “We’re all Supreme Saints. All the cultivators in Infernal Court are watching us with divine eyes. How can we break the contract?”
Zhang Ruochen insisted, “No, you have to swear in the name of the god of your clan. If you break the contract, the god of Stone Clan and Corpusians will die a horrible death.”
Black-feathered Corpse Emperor and Qiang Zun felt a chill down their spines when they heard this. They stared in the direction of the Divine Domain of Destiny in fear and cursed in their hearts. ‘Zhang Ruochen is a bastard. He dares to say anything and isn’t afraid of being struck to death by divine punishment.’
“If you don’t dare to swear, forget it. Don’t waste my time.”
Zhang Ruochen acted like he was about to leave.
“Wait.”
Black-feathered Corpse Emperor and Qiang Zun made a vow in the end. However, they didn’t dare to say anything like, “The gods of Stone Clan and Corpusians will die a horrible death.” Instead, they asked the gods of the two clans to bear witness. If they broke the contract, they would die a horrible death.
Zhang Ruochen released the sword and the black-armored Corpse Kings from Violet Gourd and returned them to Black-feathered Corpse Emperor and Qiang Zun.
At the same time, he did a rough count. There were three Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pills, 37 King Grade Saintwill Pills, and 458 top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills in the gourd.
The King Grade Saintwill Pills and top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills were what Zhang Ruochen took from Violet Gourd when he flew over the Qi Stream of Elixir after taking the first Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill.
He had also accidentally collected some other pills when he snatched the Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pills.
After all, once the spatial array at the mouth of the gourd was activated, it covered a vast area.
All the Saintwill Pills in Qi Stream of Elixir had been taken away.
Each of the ten Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pills had an owner.
Apart from the three pills Zhang Ruochen had collected, Wu Jiang, Yan Wushen, Lady Wind, Luo Shengtian, and Lan Ying had collected one each.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t pay attention to the other two. He didn’t know who had snatched them.
At this moment, only the five Hundred-Shackle Realm elites, the Great Perfection stage attainer from Yanluo clan, led by Yan Huangtu, were still fighting with the Elixir Spirit of the Lotus of Divine Reflection.
Although the Elixir Spirit of the Lotus of Divine Reflection was sealed, it still had the peak combat strength of Thousand-Koan Realm. With Yan Huangtu’s ability and the help of a Supreme Artifact, he could only trap it instead of defeating it.
The other four Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints were all injured.
Yanluo clan’s other Supreme Saints rushed to the battlefield as fast as they could. If nothing unexpected happened, it was only a matter of time for Yanluo clan to collect the Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill with their strength.
Zhang Ruochen looked from afar and found that the battlefield of the Yan Huangtu and the Elixir Spirit of the Lotus of Divine Reflection had moved into the Forest of No Return and entered the six-colored starry sky.
Countless cosmic dust and star fragments floated in the starry sky, showing six different colors.
Lord Xia Yu and the Supreme Saint Yi Xuan met up with Zhang Ruochen.
The Supreme Saint Yi Xuan felt rather guilty and said, “I’m sorry. We were stuck and couldn’t rush over to help you in time.”
“I saw everything!” Zhang Ruochen said.
Lord Xia Yu’s pretty face was as cold as frost, and her gaze was sharp, “I and Supreme Saint Yi Xuan could have snatched a Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill,” she said. “Unfortunately, it was taken away by Wu Jiang.
“Zhang Ruochen, you must be careful next time you meet him. The Saintwill he practices might be a top Grade Three Saintwill.”
Zhang Ruochen nodded as he thought about his previous encounter with Wu Jiang.
When Wu Jiang fought with him, he did not use the Saintwill at all.
Supreme Saint Yi Xuan noticed Zhang Ruochen’s gaze and kept staring at the battle in the six-colored starry sky. He said, “All Yanluo clan elites have rushed over. The Emperor-Grade Saintwill pill is already in their possession. I’m really envious.”
“I don’t think so,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Supreme Saint Yi Xuan was stunned. “Does anyone still dare to fight against Yanluo Clan?”
“Why not? The Celestial-Hunting battle was a competition between different clans. There was no such thing as not daring? Look, Wu Jiang, Luoshengtian, Xu, Yanhong... the most powerful Hundred-Shackle Realm elites on the ranking did not leave. Instead, they gathered in the direction of the Elixir Spirit of Lotus of Divine Reflection.
“Do you think they are going to watch the show?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
Supreme Saint Yi Xuan licked his lips and said, “It is indeed interesting. Why don’t we go and have a look? Maybe we will have a chance.”
Lord Xia Yu was also interested. Her eyes shone with a bright light.
“Since you are interested, let’s go and have a look. But...”
Zhang Ruochen narrowed his eyes. He stretched out his hand and pinched in the void space.
Instantly, the space around the three of them distorted. They disappeared as if they were invisible.
Even though the distorted space was invisible, it couldn’t escape the radar of Spiritual Power Supreme Saints. However, the fight between Yanluo clan and the Elixir Spirit of Lotus of Divine Reflection had affected an area of 10,000 miles.
10,000 miles was too vast. Even if a person wasn’t invisible, standing in the void space of the universe was like a speck of dust. It was very difficult to be discovered.
After turning invisible, unless a Spiritual Power Supreme Saint looked closely, it would be impossible for them to be discovered.
The three of them entered the battlefield silently and landed on a yellowish-brown star fragment.
This star fragment was two hundred and seventy miles long. It was shaped like a giant mountain ridge. It had intersecting canine teeth, and there were many mountains. The rocks were tough, and some of them had already been metalized.
In the center of the battlefield, the 11 top Hundred-Shackle Realm elites and Yan Wushen activated a Supreme Artifact in the form of a ceremonial scepter. They had suppressed the Elixir Spirit of Lotus of Divine Reflection and were refining the Elixir Spirit’s progressively.
They weren’t like Zhang Ruochen, who could use the gourd to take a pill away before refining it.
If they didn’t refine the Elixir Spirit of Lotus of Divine Reflection, they wouldn’t be able to take it away.
The other cultivators of Yanluo clan protected them from sneak attacks. Their cultivations were all very powerful. There were close to 1,000 Supreme Saints, and more than 300 of them were in Hundred-Shackle Realm.
Even if powerful figures like Wu Jiang and Luo Shengtian dared to approach them, they would be turned into dust by 1,000 Supreme Saints in an instant.
After Zhang Ruochen observed, he looked thoughtful and said, “Something is wrong!”
“What’s wrong?” Lord Xia Yu asked.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Logically speaking, the elite that an Emperor-Grade Saintwill Pill will most likely to attract should be Lan Ying.. Wu Jiang, Luo Shengtian, and the others have appeared nearby. But why is Lan Ying nowhere to be found?”
