Chapter 1214: God Of Death Is Here

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The Ninth Town Destructive Sacred Rune of the Shi Family was known throughout the world. The rune scroll could kill a Saint.

With Shi Qiankun’s Spiritual Power, he could only create a Fifth Town Destructive Sacred Rune. However, even that was incredible. It could even force Heaven Pass Realm Saints to retreat. With the Fifth Town Destructive Sacred Rune, Zhang Ruochen had a new trump card.

“Actually,” Shi Qiankun tried again, “you should return to the Blood God Sect. With the Blood God Sect’s heritage, no one can break in if you seal the mountain, unless the Blood God himself comes.”

Zhang Ruochen stood in the Sword Mausoleum. He looked very free and unrestrained. “How can I keep hiding when faced with a strong enemy? I have countless enemies. The imperial court wishes to capture me, the Moon Worship Demonic Sect wishes to kill me, the Black Market wishes to destroy me. The Necromancer and Ghost Cultivation tribes view me as a thorn too. But I’m still alive. It won’t be so easy for the Immortal Vampires to kill me.”

He waved his sleeves and walked out of the Sword Mausoleum, leaving behind an unrestrained figure.

Shi Qiankun stared at Zhang Ruochen’s leaving backside. “He is a dragon amongst men,” he said to Shi Ren on the side. “As long as he doesn’t die, he will be incredible in the future. You must interact with him genuinely. It’ll bring endless benefits to the Guardians of the Prison.”

…

…

The next day, before daybreak, Zhang Ruochen and Blackie snuck out of the Pluto Sword Tomb and headed toward the Yin Yang Sea.

Blackie transformed into a fat cat the size of a small mountain. Unfurling its wings, it flew above the clouds and asked, “Zhang Ruochen, why did we leave so sneakily? Didn’t we say that we’d bring Huang Yanchen and Qing Mo with?”

Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged on Blackie’s back. While reading the Central Region Report, he said, “This journey is too dangerous. It’s better if we head toward Yin Yang Sea by ourselves.”

Since he already knew that the Immortal Vampires had sent the Death Knights against him, he obviously wouldn’t bring Huang Yanchen to step into danger again.

“Haha,” Blackie laughed. “I also think that bringing two women is too troublesome. We should act alone.’

“The Yin Yang Sea should be in the Savage Barren Territory, right?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Right.”

“How should we enter the territory to be closest to the Yin Yang Sea?”

Zhang Ruochen hadn’t been to the Savage Barren Territory before and didn’t know the specific location of the Yin Yang Sea, so he naturally had to ask Blackie.

“The east.” Blackie paused and continued, “Even if we go from the east, we’ll still need to travel three million miles to reach the Yin Yang Sea.”

“It’s that far?” Zhang Ruochen furrowed his brows.

“A typical martial artist can spend ten lifetimes and still not go from the east of the Savage Barren Territory to the center. You can imagine just how vast the territory is. Three million miles is actually the shortest distance.”

The entire Kunlun’s Field was just barren land. The five regions of the human race were only five small portions on a map. Even added together, it was only a tiny bit of the entire barren land.

The five regions weren’t connected. They were divided by wilderness, with a great distance between each region. Humans could only travel between the five major regions through wormholes.

This time, Zhang Ruochen would leave the five human regions and enter the vast wilderness to search for the ancestral land of the divine dragons—the Yin Yang Sea.

The Savage Barren Territory was the land of the savage beasts. It preserved the primitive way of life. There were many dangerous and deathly lands. Even going 30,000 miles could land him in fatal danger, let alone three million miles.

The savage beast tribes also viewed humans as enemies. Humans entering the Savage Barren Territory was no different than a sheep going into a tiger’s den.

Even though Zhang Ruochen’s Spiritual Power and physical body were in the Saint Realm, venturing into the Savage Barren Territory was still very dangerous.

With his current attainments in spatial power, he could create a basic transport formation, but it could only transport him 30,000 miles at once. He didn’t dare to use it impulsively either. If he was unlucky, he might teleport near the nest of a Grade Seven or Eight savage beast. That would be suicide.

“Aren’t there any wormholes that go directly to the Yin Yang Sea?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Perhaps.” Blackie wasn’t sure, so he answered carefully.

Zhang Ruochen was alerted. “Where is it?” he asked.

“Divine Dragon and Half-human Clan,” Blackie said.

“Divine Dragon and Half-human Clan? That’s possible.”

Zhang Ruochen knew that the Divine Dragon and Half-human Clan were the descendants of the dragons and humans. They had a deep relationship with the dragons.

The Divine Dragon and Half-human Clan’s territory might have a wormhole that led to the Yin Yang Sea.

“In that case,” Zhang Ruochen said, smiling. “Let’s go visit the Divine Dragon and Half-human Clan first.”

Their territory was located between the eastern region and Savage Barren Territory. It was called Divine Dream Marsh. Even if they didn’t have a wormhole, Zhang Ruochen still had to pass by Divine Dream Marsh on the way to the Yin Yang Sea.

Zhang Ruochen continued reading the Central Region Report. He found some interesting things in the newspaper.

In the recent period, many high-level figures of the Confucius Way and Imperial Court had been arrested for different crimes and thrown into prison.

Zhang Ruochen smiled. “It seems like the Saint Lady has started cleaning out infiltrators after receiving the Vampire Secrets,” he said to himself. “When she’s done, she’ll probably reveal it to the public.”

After he finished reading, he took a saint fruit from the Gold Light Ribbon. Swallowing it, he began refining the medical and spirit Qi in the fruit.

This fruit was a treasure from the Blue Dragon Dynasty. It was comparable to a divine pill. If a pill master saw Zhang Ruochen just eat the fruit, he would definitely scold him for wasting it. You could produce countless divine pills by adding some auxiliary medicine to the fruit.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t care though. He just wanted to improve his cultivation as fast as possible.

Also inside the Tiantai State, Yao Sheng, sub-lord of the Nether Heavenly Palace was hurriedly traveling. More accurately, he was running for his life.

Palace lord Lan Caiye and sub-lord Zuo Mu had both died. Only Yao Sheng was still alive. However, he was badly hurt too. The male and female heads were both tattered.

The male body had all four limbs broken. A two-inch-long gash on the chest ripped the inner organs. The injury shone with demonic blood-red light. As if corroded by some power, it was unable to heal.

The escape path was spattered with saintly blood.

The people after Yao Sheng were the palace lord and two sub-lords of the Earth Heavenly Palace.

The palace lord was named Nie Lin. He was already a Saint in the fourth level—Xuanhuang Realm. The two sub-lords Mu Changfeng and Yao Han were upper-level Saints as well.

None of them were weaker than Yao Sheng.

When a Saint reached the Xuanhuang Realm, they could cultivate Xuanhuang Qi. Their combat ability would be multiple times above an upper-level Saint. They were only one level apart, but the gap was huge.

Yao Sheng was a powerful figure in the upper level, but faced with the Earth Heavenly Palace’s palace lord, he was still helpless.

He’d thought that he was undoubtedly going to die. He prepared to implode his saintly source and Sea of Qi in a suicide attack on the three palace lords. But just then, he received a telepathic message.

The Death God Knights have arrived in Tiantai State. If you wish to live, you must first pledge allegiance.

The voice was cold and emotionless.

“The legendary Death God Knights, the strongest army developed by the Immortal Pavilion?”

Yao Sheng had no choice, so he immediately pledged his allegiance.

At the same time, three beams of powerful Holy Qi hurried over. They formed a pyramid. The Qi condensed into three saintly clouds, appearing above Yao Sheng’s head.

“Yao Sheng, you won’t escape!”

Yao Han, sub-lord of the Earth Heavenly Palace, flew out of one cloud. He held a long whip with flowing flames and looked down at Yao Sheng.

Next, the other sub-lord Mu Changfeng, also walked out of a cloud. He held a saint sword. Close to 1,000 beams of Sword Qi emerged naturally, spinning around him.

Kaboom!

Nie Lin, palace lord of the Earth Heavenly Palace, rode a 200-meter-tall beast. He landed on the ground, blocking Yao Sheng’s path.

Yao Sheng gritted his teeth. Clenching his fists, he roared, “We were once friends and now, you won’t even let me live?”

Nie Lin grunted. “Working for the Immortal Vampires will only result in death.”

“Are you forcing me to make us all die together?” In order to boost his aura, Yao Sheng stomped on the ground. An 800-meter-tall mountain nearby collapsed.

“If you want us to die with you, it’ll depend on if you have the abilities.”

Nie Lin reached out. He pushed forward and two bursts of Xuanhuang Qi flooded out of his palms. They were like two broad rivers that kept spinning, curling the fallen mountain into the air.

This scene was very impressive. A typical martial artist would throw himself to the ground in fear if he saw this.

Nie Lin was activating the Xuanhuang Qi in him to restrict Yao Sheng and prevent him from using suicidal tactics.

Whoosh!

Just before Yao Sheng was killed, an icy wind came from the southeast. The wind carried a thick bloody scent.

Nie Lin was alarmed. He looked southeastward and saw that the sky and earth were shrouded in a blood-red Qi. As the blood-red Qi flooded over, all the vegetation in the mountains turned into black dust.

“Who is it?” Nie Lin roared coldly.

“Someone to kill you.”

An icy bone-penetrating voice traveled from the blood-red Qi. Next, a knight in red armor riding a dragon rushed out. He held a blood-red spear. He quickly approached Nie Lin and stabbed forward.

Poof.

This attack was filled with shocking Rules of Saintly Way and formed a horizontally-flowing whirlpool.

Nie Lin was forced to form a large river with the two beams of Xuanhuang Qi toward the knight to block the attack.

Poof.

The blood-red spear possessed terrible penetrative abilities. It instantly passed through the Xuanhuang Qi and stabbed Nie Lin’s chest. It skewered him, lifting him into the air.

Nie Lin’s saintly blood flowed down the spear and dripped onto the ground.
