God Emperor

Chapter 2309: Fukurokuju

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Each of the ten great home planets had different fortuitous encounters.

At the same time, these ten great fortuitous encounters were also the ten tests given by Fane of Destiny to the top elites in the past thousand years. Only by passing the tests could one obtain the fortuitous encounters.

The distribution of the ten great fortuitous encounters corresponded to the physiques of the ten clan’s cultivators.

It was easier for Ghosts to obtain the fortuitous encounters inside Ghost’s home planet.

It was easier for Immortal Vampires to obtain the fortuitous encounters in the home planet of Immortal Vampires.

Ghost Master had always been at loggerheads with Wargod Bloodximius. He snorted coldly. “Only Ghosts can seize the fortuitous encounters in the home planet of Ghost. It’s futile for other cultivators to even try.”

“I don’t think so. Your Ghost cultivators are useless. Letting Zhang Ruochen and Supreme Saint Yanhong break in first. With their talents, they might have a chance to seize the encounter. If so, this would be fate,” said Wargod Bloodximius.

Ghost Master was actually quite worried. He’s afraid that Wargod Bloodximius was right.

It would be a great humiliation for every Ghost if the fortuitous encounter that belongs to them be taken away by a cultivator from another clan.

Besides, Xu’s talent was extraordinary in Ghost Master’s eyes. The only Ghost who had a chance to obtain the fortuitous encounter was Xu. If Zhang Ruochen had gotten ahead of Xu, Wargod Bloodximius would definitely brag about it every time in the future. How could Ghost Master stand It?

The city lord of Impermanenton said, “How could it be so easy to seize the ten great fortuitous encounters? If I remember correctly, only Sword God Feng Chen passed the test and seized one of the ten great fortuitous encounters during the last Celestial-Hunting Festival right?”

Ghost Master said, “In the past ten thousand years, only four young Supreme Saints have successfully seized the fortuitous encounter during the last ten Celestial-Hunting Festival. There were many geniuses in different periods, but none of them succeeded.”

“The fortuitous encounters inside Ghosts’ home planet have already experienced thirty Celestial-Hunting Festival. In the past thirty thousand years, Ghost Clan has produced many outstanding cultivators, but none have succeeded in obtaining them. “Zhang Ruochen is not a Ghost, so the difficulty will

only be higher. Wargod Bloodximius, you’ve placed too much hope on him. Be careful that you’ll only be disappointed.”

Wargod Bloodximius said, ” You said so much and tried every means to prove that Zhang Ruochen can’t obtain the fortuitous encounter inside Ghosts’ home planet. But it just shows the anxiety and worries in your heart. You’re afraid that Zhang Ruochen will succeed.”

He continued, “In addition, for 30,000 years the reason why Ghosts couldn’t obtain the fortuitous encounters that should belong to them can only mean that for 30,000 years Ghosts are nothing but trash. Not a single one of them has been cultivating talent.”

“What did you say?”

“How dare you!”

Rumble

Streaks of dark and dense divine power burst out in Fane of Destiny.

The Ghost deities were furious. They felt that Wargod Bloodximius was too arrogant, and was humiliating every Ghost. Wargod Bloodximius had experienced just one Yuanhui Tribulation, yet he was such an outlaw.

No Ghost — including deities from Ghosts — can endure this sentence “for 30,000 years Ghosts are nothing but trash”.

In Wargod Bloodximius’ Divine Realm, countless vast and mighty Ghost Qi and divine smoke poured in. It was like hundreds millions of Ghost soldiers invading, smashing his Divine Realm layer by layer.

Wargod Bloodximius looked at them indifferently. He raised his strong right arm and grabbed at the air. “Halberd, come to me!”

Whoosh

A blood-red halberd appeared in his hand. A divine armor automatically condensed on Wargod Bloodximius’ body. A sharp divine aura burst out, turning into a shocking blood light that destroyed all the Ghost Qi and divine smoke that had invaded his Divine Realm.

“Very good. Compared to talking, I prefer to use my fist. Who wants to fight me?” Wargod Bloodximius shouted. His body was filled with boundless vigor as if he wanted to fight all the Ghosts and Deities.

Rumble

The divine aura of Immortal Vampires’ deities burst out, turning into a bloody mist and colliding with the divine aura of Ghost’s deities.

The three lower clans and the three middle clans had a deep grudge. It was common for them to fight even if they were deities.

The nature of living beings and dead spirits was a contradiction that they could never resolve.

“If dead spritits want to grow stronger, more living beings must die. Not only the living beings of Celestial Court but also the living beings of the lower three clans will be killed.”

This was the root of their hatred!

For example, among the 12 million Ghosts that Xu had refined into Primodial Ghost Emperor-Level Neverwilt Physique, there were also the dead souls of Immortal Vampires and Rakshasa cultivators.

“Alright! Are you going to turn this great festival into a battlefield of gods? This is Fane of Destiny, shouldn’t everyone give me some respect?”

A God statue that was tens thousands miles tall appeared in the void. Its entire body was emitting a dazzling divine light. The Gate of Destiny behind it was three million miles tall and it was as big as a planet.

The silhouettes of the deities stood under the god statue and the Gate of Destiny. They looked extremely small, like mortals standing in front of a god.

“Greetings, Fukurokuju.”

The Ghosts and Immortal Vampire’s deities stopped fighting and returned to their own Divine realm. They sat down quietly.

The god statue spoke again, “It is because everyone here worked together, Infernal Court was able to suppress the myriad realms of Celestial Court for 100,000 years. Do you want to destroy all of the hard work with your own hands?

“I know that there are grudges and conflicts between the various clans, but why must you deities personally take action?

“All of you are existences that shake the world. You are the strongest among the billions of cultivators. You should learn to control your power. If there are grudges, let the juniors of the clans settle them. It will also be a good chance to train them.

“Even gods can not escape death, they will eventually die. The future of Infernal Court lies in the younger generation. Their strength represents the strength of your clan.

The deities were silent. No one dared to be presumptuous in front of Fukurokuju.

The statue looked in the direction of Wargod Bloodximius and said, “Wargod Bloodximius, has Zhang Ruochen really cultivated Grade two Saintwill?”

Hearing Fukurokuju takes the initiative to ask about a young Supreme Saint, the deities were surprised.

After all, Fukurokuju has an unimaginably high status. It was a great honor for any Supreme Saint that Fukurokuju knows his name and asks about it.

Fukurokuju’s attitude could determine Zhang Ruochen’s future position in Infernal Court to a certain extent.

Wargod Bloodximius withdrew his fighting spirit and stood up. He cupped his fists and said, “Thank you for asking, Fukurokuju. Zhang Ruochen has indeed cultivated Grade two Saintwill, but there are still some flaws. It can only be considered as a Quasi Grade two Saintwill.”

Even when facing a Reverend, Wargod Bloodximius had never been so humble.

However, Fukurokuju was different. He had once guided Wargod Bloodximius in his cultivation and was considered half a master of Bloodximius. It was for this reason that he, the unruly war god, respected Fukurokuju so much.

The god statue said, “It seems that your Xue Jue Family is about to usher in the most glorious era. The encounters in Ghosts’ home planet are fortuitous. They originate from God’s Ancient Nidus. If Zhang Ruochen can obtain it, his future achievements may surpass yours.”

Hearing the words “God’s Ancient Nidus”, the deities were shocked again.

The ten fortuitous encounters were all different. Even the deities of the ten clans didn’t know what they were. However, hearing what Fukurokuju said made them realize that the fortuitous encounters inside Ghosts’ home planet were more precious than they had imagined.

The statue said again, “Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting is a test for Zhang Ruochen. If he can pass it, I will give him a blessing that ensures him to cultivate in Infernal Court in peace.”

This was an extraordinary signal as it represented the will of a Reverend.

Zhang Ruochen had killed many Scions and Scionesses. He had formed enmity with many deities. With the power of Wargod Bloodximius and Blood Empress, they could protect his life. However, they couldn’t stop the deities from killing him.

However, Fukurokuju could.

Of course, the prerequisite was that Zhang Ruochen could pass the test. A test that is more than talent and strength.

In Violet Gourd, Zhang Ruochen used the power of the Golden Sun of Destruction, Heart of the Divine Tree, and Divine Purification Flame to refine Amorite’s curse that had invaded his body.

‘When he recovered to his peak state and walked out of the Gourd, he found that the Gourd was floating on an endless golden water region.

With his cultivation and the power of Supreme Artifact, he could not resist the assimilation power of the Golden Mist on the water.

“Oh no, I’ve lost my direction. How can I reach the shore and return to the ground?”

In just a few breaths’ time, Zhang Ruochen’s body turned golden.

His body was as stiff as iron. Zhang Ruochen used his spiritual power to move back into the Gourd and landed on the surface of the Golden Sun of Destruction.

This time, his skin, hair, flesh, and some of his bones turned to gold. It took Zhang Ruochen a long time to recover as flesh and blood again with the life essence of Divine Purification Flame and Heart of the Divine Tree.

“This is terrible. I’m trapped in this golden sea. I can’t get out at all.”

Zhang Ruochen frowned. He suddenly sensed something and looked surprised. He muttered to himself, “How did my spiritual power increase so much suddenly?”

After breaking through the first shackle of Hundred-Shackle Realm, Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power had increased a lot, reaching the mid-stage of the 62nd level.

However, the strength of his spiritual power had increased by a large margin just now. It seemed that he was not far away from the last stage of the 62nd level.

After careful investigation, Zhang Ruochen found that the reason for the rapid growth of his spiritual power was that his body had been tured into gold. After refining it with Divine Purification Flame and the Golden Sun of Destruction, a part of the strange power had been integrated into his Spirit. This

had caused a great increase of the strength of his Spirit.

Of course, there was an even bigger reason.

After refining his body with Divine Purification Flame and the Golden Sun of Destruction, Zhang Ruochen’s body would have been greatly damaged. The reason why he could completely recover was that he had Heart of the Divine Tree constantly replenishing his life essence.

In other words, this process could speed up the refining and absorption of Heart of the Divine Tree.

Naturally, his spiritual power could increase rapidly.

Then, Zhang Ruochen found something even more amazing. The second shackle on his right arm had become much looser during the transformation of gold and flesh.

It was a pleasant surprise.

“With the help of Fugue Pill, I should be able to break the second shackle.”

It was difficult to escape from here. Therefore, Zhang Ruochen started cultivating in Violet Gourd.

Bang!

After seven strikes, Zhang Ruochen successfully broke the second shackle on his right arm. Suddenly, his Demigod-level physique released more powerful divine power.

Zhang Ruochen stood above the Golden Sun of Destruction. He raised his arms which were shining with divine light, and smiled, “The process of transforming into gold and flesh is so mysterious. This transformation alone is more effective than breaking through 1,000 shackles.”

“Moreover, during the transformation, there seems to be some mysterious power of metal property that has merged with my flesh, spiritual power, and Saint Soul.”

Zhang Ruochen’s expression changed, and he flew out of the Gourd again.

Standing on the Gourd, Zhang Ruochen searched for the direction of the Ground while taking the initiative to accept the erosion of the Golden Mist.

His skin, his flesh, and his bones all lost consciousness completely.

This time, Zhang Ruochen took a risk. He waited until only his sea of Qi had not been turned into gold before he used spiritual power to move his body and flew back to the Gourd.

In this way, his entire body turned into gold.

It took Zhang Ruochen longer than the last time to recover his body.

The process of transforming from gold to flesh was actually very painful. It was as if every inch of flesh and blood in his body had melted and condensed again.

If it were not for Zhang Ruochen’s strong will, he would not have dared to try a second time.

It was simply an act of self-abuse.

Although the process was torturous, the rewards were huge.

After this transformation from gold to flesh, Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power had officially reached the last stage of the 62nd level. At the same time, he successfully broke the third shackle on his right leg.

“Continue.”

The pleasure brought by the increase in cultivation and power made Zhang Ruochen forget the pain of the body’s transformation process. Instead, he began to enjoy the process.

The third transformation.

In the fourth transformation, Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power reached the peak of the 62nd level and broke the fourth shackle.

The fifth transformation.

In the seventh transformation, Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power reached the 63rd level and broke the fifth shackle.

In the tenth transformation, his spiritual power reached the mid-stage of the 63rd level and broke the sixth shackle.

The transformation continued.

Zhang Ruochen was completely immersed in it. He thought to himself, “Danger and fortuitous encounter coexist. The Golden Mist can kill a Supreme Saint and turn one into a golden statue. However, it can also quickly raise one’s cultivation base. Even cultivating with Sundial isn’t this fast.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t know that among Supreme Saints below Thousand-Koan Realm, no one could repeatedly transform their body like him.

First of all, he had Five-element Chaotic Neverwither Physique. He had a strong receptivity to metal properties as it’s in one of the five elements.

The Five Elements were a process that could circulate and transform each other.

Metal creates water, water creates wood, wood creates fire, fire creates Earth, and Earth creates metal.

Apart from that, his Demigod-level physique was nurtured from the divine blood of Blood Phoenix. With the Immortal Vampire bloodline, his vitality was far stronger than other Supreme Saints. Even if his body was damaged, he could recover.

Furthermore, he still had the life treasure, Heart of the Divine Tree.

It was because of these advantages that Zhang Ruochen could continuously transform his body between gold and flesh.

Assuming it was a Pink Skull with a divine bone body, even if she recovered after the golden transformation, her divine bone would still be damaged to a certain extent. After multiple transformations, she would gain nothing but harm her origin.

She could not transform the five elements. If she fought with strength, she would only be injured.

Moreover, the power of the metal attribute could not be transformed into water, wood, fire, and Earth properties that could merge with her body. Naturally, she would not be able to absorb the benefits contained in the Golden Mist..
