Chapter 2502: Great Perfection
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The sound of rapid flowing water came from somewhere.
!!
“It’s the sound of time flowing.”
Lord Ironclad felt the Power of Time growing stronger. He finally accepted the fact that the old man was Zhang Ruochen.
However, Zhang Ruochen’s claim to kill him was ridiculous in his eyes.
Lord Ironclad felt much more relaxed. He was even pleasantly surprised. “It seems that your injuries have healed. You can mobilize the power of Qiankun!”
If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t borrowed the power of Qiankun, how could he have taken his palm strike?
Zhang Ruochen didn’t explain to him. “If you run now, you might still be able to escape.”
Lord Ironclad said, “Even if you can mobilize the power of Qiankun and have several Supreme Artifacts, it’s still far from enough to kill me. I’ll say the same thing back to you. If you run now, you might still be able to escape.”
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that Lord Ironclad must have spread the news the moment he found him. Most of the Supreme Saints under Bai Qing’er, including Duan Lingfeng, were on their way here.
They had to end the battle quickly.
It was a good thing that Lord Ironclad didn’t run.
Boom
Zhang Ruochen slapped Sundial, and the sound of water flowing became louder. The light spots of Mark of Time surged toward Lord Ironclad like a huge river.
Lord Ironclad retreated backward. At the same time, a dim light appeared in his eyes. He murmured something.
“Life and Death Curse!”
The power of the curse fell silently on Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen felt chills all over his body. His flesh and blood withered, and his life force was quickly reduced.
However, it only lasted for a moment. Myriad Curse Bead hanging on his body absorbed all the power of the curse that was attacking him. Zhang Ruochen held Ugyen Cudgel, rushed out like a stream of light, and stomped down.
100 million Divine Mark of Flame appeared on his left leg, condensing into a scorching fire cloud. The fire cloud rolled making the divine sea churn.
Lord Ironclad stabbed out with his spear. With all his might he pierced through the fire cloud and collided with Zhang Ruochen’s foot.
The bone spear was refined from divine bone.
Zhang Ruochen’s leg was also the leg of a TrueGod that had been completely free from the seal.
This clash formed a world-shaking energy wave. The two dimensions seemed to collide, and explosions could be heard in the surrounding void space.
Zhang Ruochen flew back.
Lord Ironclad also retreated. Zhang Ruochen’s foot was powerful enough to kill Dang Hu in Banshi Isshou Realm. Naturally, he wouldn’t be able to block it easily.
Even the peak of Banshi Isshou Realm couldn’t block it.
After standing still, Lord Ironclad found that he’d lost more than 200 years of his life. He felt weak. He couldn’t reach his peak as his fighting spirit had lessened.
He looked over and found that Sundial had been floating behind Zhang Ruochen. It was hidden in space, so it wasn’t easy to notice.
Lord Ironclad said angrily, “How can you be so sinister?”
“How can you talk about being sinister in a life-and-death battle? We are not gentlemen. Why do you care so much? Use whatever tricks you have.”
Before he could finish his words, the space where Lord Ironclad was was suddenly shattered. Countless cracks appeared like broken mirrors.
Suddenly, the space collapsed inward.
“You want to kill me with your current Dimension attainments?”
Lord Ironclad roared and released 1.4 Trillion Precepts.
Precepts swept out like an ocean of rules. Whether it was Precepts of Dimension, Mark of Time, or other heavenly and earthly precepts, they were all scattered by Lord Ironclad’s Precepts.
More than a trillion Precepts turned into a strange and bloody Precept Domain — the Netherland Domain.
In the Precept Domain, there was a broken Nether city, bones everywhere, and burning war flags.
Zhang Ruochen felt as if he had been forcefully pulled into Lord Ironclad’s world. Zhang Ruochen stepped on the ground, the air surrounding have a nauseating smell of blood. There were Nether cities and corpse mountains in front of him while Saint Vessel was floating in the sky.
“Is this your true ability?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
Lord Ironclad stood on the saint cruiser and looked down, “When I fought with you in Enchanton, I sealed 90% of my cultivation. I couldn’t use many of my skills back then. Otherwise, do you really think you can fight against a Supreme Saint at the peak of Banshi Isshou Realm?”
Most Supreme Saints who could cultivate Banshi Isshou Realm had lived for thousands of years.
After thousands of years of cultivation, they would understand more or less aboutDimension and Time. Even if they couldn’t reach the advanced level, it wasn’t difficult to practice some simple defensive techniques.
It wasn’t that Zhang Ruochen’s Dimension attainments weren’t high enough. It was just that he hadn’t comprehended enough Precepts of Dimension.
Zhang Ruochen knew that he was far behind Lord Ironclad in terms of cultivation and Saint Techniques. Thus, he definitely couldn’t compete with him in terms of Precepts and Saint Techniques.
Physical strength was his advantage.
“Your Precept Domain can’t suppress me.”
Zhang Ruochen stabbed Ugyen Cudgel into the ground and put his hands together. Instantly, his body radiated with boundless golden light.
The Saint Aspect of the Immovable Wisdom King appeared. The nine heavens above his head grew higher and higher. Finally, it broke through the ground and formed a place that belonged to Zhang Ruochen inside Lord Ironclad’s Precept Domain.
Lord Ironclad was shocked. His cultivation was more than 100 times higher than Zhang Ruochen’s, but why could Zhang Ruochen do things that even a Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saint couldn’t do?
What was the technique he practiced? Why was his Saint Aspect so powerful?
Lord Ironclad let out a long cry and activated a ninth-class array, Grand Demon Obelisk Array on Saint Vessel. In an instant, vast Demonic Qi spread in Netherland Domain, it devoured the golden light from the Saint Aspect of the Immovable Wisdom King.
Zhang Ruochen released all his spiritual power and sensed the changes in Netherland Domain.
This was the first time he was fighting a superior like Lord Ironclad. He had to be careful at all costs and make no mistakes.
Whoosh!!!
The Demonic Qi above his head dropped rapidly.
An invisible and powerful force pressed down on Zhang Ruochen. Even in Meritorious Armor of Flowing Light, he couldn’t move an inch.
The Demon Obelisk formed by the array fell from the sky.
The Demon Obelisk had a total of 72 levels, but Zhang Ruochen could only see 54. The rest of the Obelisk body was 10,000 miles away. In other words, the tower was more than 10,000 miles tall.
One could imagine that if this attack landed in a macroworld like Kunlun’s field, the surrounding 10,000 miles would sink underground, and all living things within ten thousand miles would be turned into ashes. Even places 100,000 miles away would be affected.
Lord Ironclad seemed confident that Zhang Ruochen would be killed on the spot. His blood boiled and said excitedly, “If you didn’t have that amazing time treasure, I wouldn’t have been willing to use Grand Demon Obelisk Array. That’s good too. Once I kill you, all your treasures will belong to me.”
Lord Ironclad was a very rational and calm person. However, how could he remain still while thinking about the treasures of Zhang Ruochen?
The Demon Obelisk had already suppressed the Saint Aspect of the Immovable Wisdom King. It crushed the nine-layered sky and continued to press down, destroying the Saint Aspect.
“Did you really think it’s so easy to kill me?”
Divine light flashed on Zhang Ruochen’s body, and power surrounded him.
Soon, the divine light flash the second time and became even brighter.
The third time.
The fourth time.
…
Gradually, Zhang Ruochen seemed to be the incarnation of a TrueGod. The divine light shone brightly on his skin, and his breath turned into clouds.
100 million Divine Mark of Flame like little fire dragons flowed in his left leg.
He then struck down with his leg.
Boom!
Netherland Domain shook and the ground was cracked open.
Precepts were broken at the crack.
Lord Ironclad’s face changed. He thought, “How can Zhang Ruochen be so powerful? Can he break through my Precept Domain? Impossible, absolutely impossible.”
Boom!!!
With the second step, Netherland Domain shattered. It floated in the void space like pieces of land.
Then the third, fourth…
Lord Ironclad thought of something and said, “I understand! You’ve cultivated to the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm. Your demigod body has completely broken free. Your physical strength has reached Paramount physique.”
Only now did Lord Ironclad understand that Zhang Ruochen’s Power of Time and Dimension or even Supreme Artifacts were not the big deal. He might be fine dealing with a Thousand-Koan Realm, or even a Supreme Saint at the beginning or middle stage of Banshi Isshou Realm.
However, in front of a Supreme Saint at the peak of Banshi Isshou Realm, these were all tricks. They weren’t much of a threat.
Zhang Ruochen deliberately exposed these tricks to confuse him.
The real trump card of Zhang Ruochen was his demigod body.
In the past few days, when Zhang Ruochen stopped, he would open Sundial to practice. It was equivalent to cultivating for several years. Thus, he had broken all the tiny shackles in his body and reached the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm.
“It’s too late to understand now!”
Zhang Ruochen struck on the 11th step. The divine force burst out of his body and completely crushed Lord Ironclad’s Netherland Domain.
After losing the suppression of Precept Domain, Zhang Ruochen let out a sigh of relief. He could finally use his Dimension Techniques. He took a look at the 72-level Demon Obelisk that was already above his head. He then shouted, “Break it!”
The space within dozens of miles shattered instantly, turning into a chaotic zone where reality and illusion intersected.
Zhang Ruochen’s body sank into the chaos and fell into the void space.
Lord Ironclad roared, “Do you think you’re fine after escaping into the void space? Either way, you’ll die in my hands.”
Lord Ironclad had already sensed the threat from Zhang Ruochen. He was eager to kill him. He flew out of Saint Vessel and landed on the top of the 72-level Demon Obelisk. He took a deep breath and dispersed Netherland Domain. Billions of Precepts were now attached to the Demon Obelisk.
The Demon Obelisk shrank and broke through the dimension. It chased after Zhang Ruochen and went into the void space.
Rumble
The Demon Obelisk was swallowed by the power of the void space and turned into a part of the void space.
Lord Ironclad withdrew all the Precepts into his body. Saint Light appeared in his eyes as searched for Zhang Ruochen in the void space.
He wasn’t sure if the Demon Obelisk had killed Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen could die, but his treasures should definitely not be lost in the void space.
After all, Lord Ironclad was an elite at the peak of Banshi Isshou Realm. Lord Ironclad could stay in the void space for a short time. He could even break through the void space and return to the real world with his own power.
After looking around, Lord Ironclad still couldn’t find Zhang Ruochen or any treasures. He immediately realized that something was wrong. He wanted to break through the void space and leave.
Zhang Ruochen suddenly revealed himself. His entire body shone with divine light. Like a god of war, he swung Ugyen Cudgel.
Boom
Ugyen Cudgel exploded with an incomparable power. It hit Lord Ironclad’s abdomen, causing him to spit out blood. His body flew out like an iron ball.
“Huh?”
Zhang Ruochen was surprised. This strike didn’t break Lord Ironclad’s body into two.
“The armor on his body is strong enough to withstand the power of a demigod’s body.”
Zhang Ruochen’s stick was a strike of pure power.
The power of a Supreme Artifact was negligible. At most, it was an indestructible iron stick.
A Supreme Artifact needed Saint Qi to activate. With Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation at the Great Perfection in Hundred-Shackle Realm, the quality and quantity of Saint Qi, the power created by a Supreme Artifact were far weaker than his demigod’s body.
Unless Zhang Ruochen broke through to Thousand-Koan Realm and activated the Supreme Artifact. Only then it would be easy for him to deal with a Supreme Saint at the peak of Banshi Isshou Realm.
Right now, he still had to rely on the physical body of a demigod.
The armor on Lord Ironclad was called Netherite Armor. Only Supreme Saints who had joined Nether Berserker were qualified to obtain one. Its defensive power was extraordinary.
Back on Battlefield of Merits, Lord Ironclad had relied on Netherite Armor to save his life from a Paramount Realm Supreme Saint.
Before Lord Ironclad could catch his breath, Zhang Ruochen’s second strike landed on his head.
BOOM
Ugyen Cudgel and Netherite Armor collided. Sparks flew and the sound was like a bell.
No matter how strong Netherite Armor’s defense was, Lord Ironclad, who was in the armor, could not withstand it. He was dazed by the strike that he almost lost consciousness.
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t in a hurry. He flew over with Ugyen Cudgel in his hand, “Actually, with my current cultivation and spiritual power strength, I can’t fully make use of my demigod body. I definitely can’t kill a Supreme Saint at Banshi Isshou Realm. But you’ve made a fatal mistake. You shouldn’t have chased into the void space.
“The void space restrains dimension, but other than the void cultivators, Dimension cultivators have a huge advantage too. You’re constantly being eroded by the void space, your senses are severely weakened. How can you be my opponent in this state?”
Zhang Ruochen pierced through the void space with his cudgel. He carried the dying Lord Ironclad and flew back to the universe space.
“I won’t admit defeat to you… I-I still have many trump cards I haven’t used… ahem…” Lord Ironclad said weakly.
“There’s no chance anymore! Lord Ironclad, accept the judgment of light!”
Zhang Ruochen pointed with his finger. The 12 judgment swords turned into a sword path and flew out. They condensed into one in midair. It had reached the level of a Supreme Artifact and gave off an extremely bright light.
The Power of Light from the sword cleansed the Nether Qi and Demonic Qi in the void space.
Swoosh
Sword of Judgment slashed down and finally broke Netherite Armor. It cut Lord Ironclad in half.
The Power of Light seemed to be especially effective against Nether Clan. It caused Lord Ironclad’s body to burn and turn into white spots of light. It was extremely holy.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t take the weapons on Lord Ironclad. He cleaned up his aura, leaving only Power of Light, and quickly flee to the void space.
Not long after, Duan Lingfeng arrived. He grabbed Lord Ironclad’s body, which had been purified to the point where there was almost no flesh and blood left. He landed on the black Saint Vessel, his face twisted, “The power of Supreme Artifact of Light. Celestial Court! It must be Celestial Court! These sons of a b*tch have gone too far. They’ve stolen everything and gone overboard! From today onwards, I, Duan Lingfeng, will fight Celestial Court to the death.”
Duan Lingfeng was even more furious when he learned that High-Saint Kai Luo and the others had stolen Zhang Ruochen’s body.
