God Emperor

Chapter 2363 Teasing Zhexian

Pfft!

Ugh!

Que killed three Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm in a row. His attacks were fast, accurate, and ruthless. It was clear that he had been hit with true fire today, and he couldn’t care less about the “No Killing” prohibition.

Just as Que was about to kill the fourth member of The Eight Sons of Life and Death, the pitch-black copper temple shone with the Light of Origin.

Yan Wushen charged out of the darkness. Half of his flesh and blood had disappeared, revealing a large number of golden bones. His face was ferocious, and he looked like the Infernal Yama.

The Precepts of Origin in his palms formed a Pagoda of Origin.

“Die!” Yan Wushen shouted.

He leaped up and smashed the Pagoda of Origin towards Que.

Yan Wushen was also enraged today.

In an instant, the entire copper temple was filled with powerful qi. The wind howled, and the Qi surged.

Que had no choice but to give up on his killing intent. He swung his sword backward, leaving behind a dazzling arc of sword light that slashed toward the Pagoda of Origin.

Boom

The Pagoda of Origin shattered, turning into an even more dazzling Light of Origin.

Yan Wushen and Que each spat out a mouthful of blood and flew in two different directions.

Suddenly, the remaining five members of The Eight Sons of Life and Death all appeared in the copper temple. They saw the three members lying on the ground and realized that their life force was rapidly losing.

The Eight Sons of Life and Death had grown up together and cultivated together. They were like brothers.

Seeing this scene, they felt like their eyes were about to explode. Each of them held up The Book of Life and The Book of Death. They activated the incomplete Indestructible Great Array and attacked Que.

“Kill!”

Que is half-knelt on the ground. He supported his body with his sword. Biting his bloody teeth, he charged forward.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at Yan Wushen. He was very surprised.

In such a small space like the copper temple, Zhang Ruochen had activated Dark Space-time Matter and Yan Wushen was actually able to survive.

Yan Wushen was heavily injured. After getting up from the ground, he didn’t care about his injuries. He rushed to the side of the three Supreme Saints at the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. He mobilized his Power of Origin and Buddhist light to purify the Qi of Oblivion that invaded their bodies.

Que’s three swords hit their vitals, and the Power of Oblivion had invaded their bodies.

If they didn’t dissolve the Power of Oblivion in time, no matter how strong their vitality was, they would be devoured by the Oblivion in a moment. They would die without a trace.

Zhang Ruochen turned into a breeze and flew down from the top of the copper statue. He glanced at Yan Wushen.

Yan Wushen also stared at him.

Their eyes met. There were all sorts of complicated emotions in their eyes.

If Zhang Ruochen attacked, this was the best time to kill Yan Wushen. He would definitely die.

However, Zhang Ruochen didn’t do so. He quickly looked away and rushed to the temple gate.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to kill an opponent like Yan Wushen while he was saving people. This was one of the reasons.

The other reason was that Yan Wushen couldn’t be killed.

The Dark Space-time Matter destroyed the rune patterns and many array patterns in the temple. When Zhang Ruochen arrived at the door, he found that there were remnants of the array of inscriptions floating in the air.

“Not good!”

In front of him, a blinding sword light flew over. The light was so bright that Zhang Ruochen felt like he was going blind.

Zhang Ruochen quickly closed his eyes and used his spiritual power to analyze.

“It’s the ninth-class sword array,” said Zhang Ruochen.

The blinding sword light came from 81 swords. Under the control of dozens of Supreme Saint Array Masters, they turned into a long sword dragon and charged toward Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen extended his right hand and rotated his five fingers.

Suddenly, 36 Dimensional Swords condensed in the space in front of him and collided with the 81 swords.

This ninth-class sword array was guarded by a High-Saint Array Master. It was extremely powerful.

When the swords collided, they let out deafening sword chimes.

The sword light transformed into thousands of sharp sword Qi that flew out and collided with the copper temple’s walls, pillars, and floors, leaving white marks.

It was unknown what the copper temple was made of or what mysterious power it possessed. It could not be destroyed even by a Supreme Saint. It was unshakeable even by Dark Space-time Matter.

“Violet Gourd,” Zhang Ruochen called out.

Zhang Ruochen summoned the Violet Gourd and used Supreme Power to protect his body. He pressed his arm against the ground.

The 36 Dimensional Swords turned into a sword path. The sword rolled from the ground all the way to the distance and hit the High-Saint Array Master who was in charge of the sword formation.

CRACK!

The High-Saint Array Master’s defense was penetrated. Three Dimensional Swords pierced through his chest, abdomen, and right leg.

The High-Saint Array Master let out a scream and was sent flying backward.

Yan Zhexian waved her dark green brush in her hand as she realized she was about to be hit by the other seven Dimensional Swords and killed by the chaotic swords. It cut the Dimensional Swords in half by forming seven runic patterns.

The ninth-class sword array’s power was greatly reduced when it was not under the control of the High-Saint Array Master.

“Break!”

Zhang Ruochen’s body released a burst of space vibration power that struck 81 swords.

All the swords flew out in pieces.

Yan Zhexian’s body was suspended above the 384 copper steps. She looked at Zhang Ruochen at the same level. Her beautiful eyes were cold and sharp, she said, “I didn’t expect that you could kill your way out of the copper temple. Let us fight again.”

“If you don’t want the Yanluo clan to suffer heavy casualties, you’d better not stop me,” Zhang Ruochen said.

In the end, the Battle of Celestial-Hunting and the War of Merits in Celestial and Infernal Courts were completely different.

The War of Merits was a life-or-death struggle. It was a fight for life and death.

The Battle of Celestial-Hunting was just a competition between the various races in Infernal Court. It didn’t have to be a battle of life and death. It could only be described as a battle of advantages, a battle of honor and disgrace.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to become too hostile with the Yanluo clan on the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting if it wasn’t the last resort.

“Great Rocfish Talisman!”

Yan Zhexian’s brush was stained with the blood of the Rocfish and she drew a genuine Rocfish.

The Rocfish spread its wings and flew toward the temple gate.

The ten tattered golden wings on Zhang Ruochen’s back spread out. They turned into a streak of golden light and cut the Rocfish in half. Then he flew toward the pitch-black night rain.

After flying for a distance, Zhang Ruochen sensed that something was wrong.

The night rain had disappeared!

Everything was bright in front of him, and a cold wind blew around him.

He stood in a world of white snow. The mountains were covered in snow, and snowflakes were falling. He couldn’t see the end of the world.

“This is… an illusion formation!” Zhang Ruochen exclaimed. Zhang Ruochen opened his palm and caught a snowflake in it.

The snowflake melted and turned into a drop of ice water.

It appeared to be very real and not an illusory formation.

“What a brilliant illusory formation. It’s got to be set up by both the High-Saint Array Master and the High-Saint Illusionist. The Yanluo clan is really full of talents,” Zhang Ruochen said to himself.

“Zhang Ruochen, now you know you’ve been tricked, right? I have no intention of fighting you alone. I just want to lure you into the formation.”

Yan Zhexian’s voice was still cold, but it was particularly pleasant.

RUMBLE!

The vast glacial world shook.

Seven towering snow-capped mountains broke through the ground and stood up.

The seven peaks looked like seven Maleficents. Their faces were terrifying, but they released a powerful oppressive force that landed on Zhang Ruochen from seven directions.

This suppressive force was real. It compressed Zhang Ruochen’s Profound Spatial Dimension, Null Time realm, and the Realm-frame of Truth, making the space he could move in smaller and smaller.

“Myriad Glacier illusory formation, together with The Seven Evils of Ksitigarbha Talisman, nearly a hundred Supreme Saint Talisman Masters and Supreme Saint Array Masters working together. Is that enough to kill you?”

Yan Zhexian’s figure appeared on the top of one of the snow peaks. She was beautiful and had an extraordinary temperament. She was like a pure and flawless snow lotus.

“With the High-Saint Array Master, High-Saint Talisman Master, and High-Saint Illusion Master all working together to set up these two arrays, it would be enough to kill a Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saint, let alone me,” Zhang Ruochen said calmly.

“I’ll give you another chance. Cripple your cultivation and you’ll have a way out. Think carefully. This is your only chance,” Yan Zhexian said.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “Your arrays can kill me, but you’re also in the array now. I can guarantee that I’ll kill you before the array kills me.”

“Really?”

Yan Zhexian only said one word, but seven overlapping voices sounded in the cold wind. At the top of the other six snow peaks, Yan Zhexian also appeared. Her white clothes fluttered, and she held a jade brush. She looked like an ice fairy.

It was hard to tell which is her true self out of the seven Yan Zhexians.

Yan Zhexian didn’t have a choice. She had to enter the formation of The Seven Evils of Ksitigarbha Talisman to wield great power.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Yan Zhexian on the top of the seven peaks and said, “I’m afraid you don’t know how profound my attainments in the Path of Truth are. Using the illusory formation to deal with me will be the stupidest decision you have ever made.”

Swoosh

Zhang Ruochen turned into a streak of golden light and flew to the top of one of the snowy peaks at the fastest speed.

Yan Zhexian looked at Zhang Ruochen who was flying straight toward him. A look of surprise appeared on her clean face. She thought to herself, ‘The illusory formation is not an illusion. How could he see through it so easily? Is he also the Master of Truth?’

Yan Zhexian had no time to think. She immediately activated the rune patterns.

Even without the Myriad Glacier illusory formation, she was confident that she could kill Zhang Ruochen with The Seven Evils of Ksitigarbha Talisman.

Rumble

One of the snow peaks moved. It looked like Maleficent. A pair of huge hands of ice and snow formed an ancient seal and slapped down Zhang Ruochen.

This palm print was as powerful as a full-strength attack from a peak Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saint.

Zhang Ruochen evaded it with extreme speed and continued to fly upwards.

The second Maleficent-shaped snow peak formed a seal.

The third snow peak attacked.

Zhang Ruochen evaded the power of the five snow peaks in a row. Finally, when the sixth snow peak struck the palm print, there was no way to dodge. He had to activate the Violet Gourd and activate the Supreme Power.

A thick golden pillar of fire surged out from the mouth of the gourd and collided with the snow palm that was as large as a cloud.

The two forces clashed and could not hold out.

The palm print from the seventh snow peak was suppressed at that point.

‘More than 60 Supreme Saint Talisman Masters attacked at the same time. Their power is too powerful. It is indeed not something that my current cultivation can withstand.’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes darkened. He left the Violet Gourd with both hands and flew out from between the fingers of the snow palm print in a flash.

Above his head was the seventh palm print.

“River of Time!” Zhang Ruochen called out.

Zhang Ruochen struck out with his palm. Tens of millions of Precepts of Time gushed out of his body. He activated the Mark of Time in this space and condensed a River of Time that was as long as 300,000 meters.

The River of Time collided with the snow and ice palm print. The flow of time changed, making the palm print fall very slowly. Taking this opportunity, Zhang Ruochen flew from the edge of the ice and snow palm print to Yan Zhexian on the peak.

No matter how calm Yan Zhexian was, her beautiful face was filled with shock and panic.

Once The Seven Evils of Ksitigarbha Talismans were used, they were comparable to the combined attack of seven pinnacle Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saints. They could even fight against Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saints.

No matter how heaven-defying Zhang Ruochen’s combat strength was, he was only in the Hundred-Shackle Realm. How could he break through The Seven Evils of Ksitigarbha Talisman’s attack circle?

Didn’t this mean that even if several pinnacle Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saints attacked him at the same time, they wouldn’t be able to kill him with Zhang Ruochen’s strength?

Zhang Ruochen came close to Yan Zhexian. He pinched her fingers and snatched the brush from her hand in an instant.

Yan Zhexian turned to escape, but Zhang Ruochen grabbed her shoulder. Her beautiful face showed pain. She was about to cut off her arm to survive, but Zhang Ruochen grabbed her neck.

Saint Qi gushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s fingertips and invaded her body.

“Tell those Supreme Saint Talisman Masters to stop activating the runes, or else… ” Zhang Ruochen said.

Yan Zhexian’s face showed determination. She gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t even think about it. Even if I die, I’ll drag you down with me.”

The Seven Evils of Ksitigarbha Talisman had already taken shape. Even without Yan Zhexian, they were still powerful. Zhang Ruochen wasn’t confident that he could break them. Capturing Yan Zhexian was the only way he could think of to break the situation.

“Did I say I wanted to kill you?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

no

Zhang Ruochen’s lips moved closer to Yan Zhexian’s snow-white ears. He breathed gently, “You should know who I am,” he said softly. “I’m a man who takes care of women. I didn’t even kill Fairy Lian Xi. How could I bear to kill you?”

“Shameless man,” said Yan Zhexian.

Yan Zhexian thought of the reason why Zhang Ruochen didn’t kill her earlier. It was likely that he had some kind of intention for her. She felt a chill in her heart. She hated this person to the core.

Yan Zhexian had a strong personality. She released her spiritual power and wanted to continue fighting Zhang Ruochen to death.

However, just as Yan Zhexian released her spiritual power, she felt a sharp pain in her brain.

Yan Zhexian’s spiritual power dispersed immediately and she was unable to condense it into attack power.

“You won’t be able to use me to escape from the home planet of the Yanluo clan,” Yan Zhexian said.

Zhang Ruochen kissed her crystal-clear face. His pupils turned blood-red. He said sinisterly, “Since you say I’m a shameless person, I can only do shameless things. Even if I die today, it’s worth it!”

“What are you doing?” Yan Zhexian asked.

Yan Zhexian couldn’t move. The kiss from Zhang Ruochen made her feel even more disgusted. She wanted to tear this shameless person into pieces.

“I wonder if the Mystic Eye of Myriad Realms can reflect here.”

Zhang Ruochen looked up. One hand was around Yan Zhexian’s neck, and the other hand reached toward the collar of her white robe. His five fingers slowly moved inside, feeling the soft touch.

“All Talisman Masters, Listen up. Stop activating the rune patterns.”

Yan Zhexian trembled in fear. She closed her eyes and shouted.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes became serious again. He withdrew his hand and gently stroked her cheek. He said, “Thank you.”

“You can’t escape today. The Talisman Masters will listen to me, but the other Supreme Saints of the Yanluo clan won’t,” said Yan Zhexian. Her delicate body was still trembling. She had never been humiliated like this since she was young.

Zhang Ruochen was the shameless one she had to kill first.
