Chapter 1525: Mu Fire Bronze City And Reverse God Stele

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Faced with such great pressure, Qiu Yu’s skin turned into wood and shone with golden light. Faint Supreme Saint Qi poured out and into the Fire God boxing gloves and wrist guards on his arms.

Whoosh!

Two hands of fire appeared above Qiu Yu’s head like fiery clouds.

The attack from the Unmovable Emperor Ming also landed now.

The two fiery hands from Qiu Yu couldn’t withstand the power. They crumbled into shards of flames, spreading in all directions.

Kaboom.

Qiu Yu’s body couldn’t withstand the Unmovable Emperor Ming’s attack at all. He was forced underground. The surrounding ground also collapsed and cracks even appeared in the space.

It was clear that after the 99 saint mountains collapsed, the fragile space in Zuling Field couldn’t withstand such a strong force anymore.

If such intense battles continued, the world could really fall apart.

“Zhang Ruochen, I’ve become one with the Qiao Ancestor’s Supreme Saint tree now. My body can’t be destroyed. You can’t kill me.”

1Qiu Yu’s voice came from under the collapsed earth. Leaves, branches, and a tree trunk burst from the ground. It grew bigger and rushed into the sky, almost reaching into the universe.

The parasol tree, the root of the fire spirit.

Such an enormous saint tree looked like a towering mountain from the distance. It burned with blazing flames. The fire actually contained power comparable to Divine Fire Jingmie.

The Luosha marquises present, along with Le, Princess White Li, Han Qiu, and the Saints of the Sacred Central Empire all retreated into the distance. They were afraid of falling into the battle zone.

Zhang Ruochen and Qiu Yu’s battle had already surpassed the Saint Realm. They’d even surpassed first step Saint Kings. If a battle erupted, the broken Zuling Field wouldn’t be able to withstand the power at all. It may shatter into pieces.

“Die!”

The saint tree covered in flames swept out at the Unmovable Emperor Ming.

Supported by Supreme Saint power, the saint tree was actually able to suppress Zhang Ruochen for a bit. But soon, Zhang Ruochen regained the upper hand. He used Spatial Collapse and hurt the saint tree.

The weaker the space was, the stronger Zhang Ruochen was.

This was his geographical advantage.

In the end, Zhang Ruochen put the Unmovable Emperor Ming back into his body. He activated the power of the Universe World and dragged his finger across the saint tree’s trunk. A 100-mile-long spatial crack appeared.

All of Zuling Field was about to be torn in half.

Ugh, Zhang Ruochen’s spatial power is increasing without limits in Zuling Field. Even though I have a Supreme Saint body, I might still be forced into the void. Qiu Yu was naturally jealous.

Mastering an ancient way was the biggest treasure for any cultivator. Even a god would be jealous.

Before, Qiu Yu said that he had a Divine Body because he was the reborn root of the divine parasol tree. He contained natural divine Qi and it was possible to grow into a divine tree.

Now, he had a true Supreme Saint body. Anyone who wasn’t a Supreme Saint would definitely have difficulty killing him.

Yet Zhang Ruochen’s spatial power could threaten him and may even kill him. This was the scary thing about the ancient ways.

“Let me help you.”

Ji Hua struck with the saint staff again, stabbing it into the ground between Zhang Ruochen and Qiu Yu. She wanted to use the staff’s power to stabilize the space and restrict Zhang Ruochen.

Unfortunately, she didn’t know that she could only stabilize the space earlier because the 99 saint mountains hadn’t collapsed. The spatial structure had been stable already.

Now, Zhang Ruochen activated the power of tlhe Universe World. With her Spiritual Power, she wouldn’t be able to restrict Zhang Ruochen even if she could stabilize the space.

Faced with Zhang Ruochen’s spatial crack, the saint staff actually started shaking.

“Oh, no…”

Ji Hua’s expression change dramatically.

The 100-mile-long spatial crack didn’t close. Instead, it swallowed the staff.

“My…Xuanqing Saint Staff…”

Ji Hua almost spat out blood in anger. That Xuanqing Saint Staff was a very powerful treasure. It could strengthen saint techniques and help her quickly carve advanced formation runes.

Losing the saint staff would reduce her abilities greatly.

She would have to accumulate years of wealth to create a treasure like the Xuanqing Saint Staff. How could she not feel heartbroken?

Her murderous intent grew heavier.

Qiu Yu was decisive though. He shrunk, turning back into human form, and used his fastest speed to dodge the spatial crack.

But Zhang Ruochen was even faster. He used the Spatial Move and appeared before Qiu Yu. He struck out with thousands of dragon shadows flying from his palm.

Qiu Yu also pushed a palm out, clashing squarely with Zhang Ruochen.

Kaboom!

With them as the center, the world was ripped apart. Cracks appeared in the sky.

Because he could control spatial power, Zhang Ruochen’s advantage grew inside broken space.

Qiu Yu had no choice but to retreat.

His retreat meant Zhang Ruochen could advance. He used move after move from the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm. Dragon and elephant shadows kept flying out, restricting Qiu Yu fully.

“It’s not easy to meld into a Supreme Saint body. Even if you received the Qiao Ancestor’s inheritance, you still need a long time to meld completely and control the Supreme Saint body’s power.”

Zhang Ruochen’s attacks grew fiercer and fiercer. Qiu Yu couldn’t even fight back.

After more than 100 attacks, the world within thousands of miles was all tattered. Densely packed ravines appeared everywhere.

With a boom, Qiu Yu was hit by Zhang Ruochen’s fist. He spat out blood and flew back.

He landed on the ground in a half-kneeling move. But even with his weak personality, he still didn’t beg for forgiveness. Instead, his eyes sharpened.

Does he have another trump card? Zhang Ruochen was very familiar with Qiu Yu now.

“Zhang Ruochen, are you really my nemesis?” Qiu Yu roared. “Before meeting you, I couldn’t find anyone who could stop me in the same realm!”

Keeping his guard up, Zhang Ruochen walked to the side. A strong force emanated from him. “Since you know I’m your nemesis, then you should hide when you see me. Why do you still fight with me?”

“You’re too proud. You think I can’t defeat you? Today, I will defeat you squarely and justly and press you under my feet forever.”

Qiu Yu suddenly stood up. He put his hands above his head and a fist-sized ball of light flew out of his forehead. “Mu Fire Bronze City!” he yelled.

The ball of light rushed into the sky, transforming into a majestic bronze city of fire.

When the city appeared, a horrible Supreme Saint aura also spread out, filling the space.

Even the Saints standing thousands of miles away could feel their saint souls trembling and going out of control. They became chaotic.

Only a Supreme Saint could have such might.

“Oh, no. Qiu Yu actually got the Qiao Ancestor’s strongest saint weapon, the Mu Fire Bronze City.”

The Saint Lady looked into the sky. Seeing the city in the flames and the terrible saintly might, she grew unsettled.

The Mu Fire Bronze City wasn’t an absolute saint weapon, but it was the strongest weapon under the Absolute Saint Realm. There were more than 100,000 patterns inside.

Merely a saint weapon wouldn’t worry the Saint Lady. But from the Mu Fire Bronze City’s saintly might, it was clear that the Qiao Ancestor had left Supreme Saint power in it.

If the power was unleashed, barely any beings under the Supreme Saint Realm could withstand it.

“Zhang Ruochen can manipulate the Universe World’s power, but with his current physical body, he can’t withstand too strong of a force. The power he can borrow is limited too. I’m afraid he…can’t bear the Mu Fire Bronze City…”

The Saint Lady bit her red lip and worry grew in her eyes. If she wasn’t so far away from the battlefield, she would hurry over to help Zhang Ruochen no matter what.

In a way, Zhang Ruochen’s enemy was the Qiao Ancestor instead of Qiu Yu.

The Supreme Saints of Guanghan Field were extremely nervous. Some even sighed. They were clear about Supreme Saint power, so they were even more pessimistic. They thought Zhang Ruochen might not be able to survive this.

Zhang Ruochen indeed felt extreme pressure. All his Qi was restricted. If he didn’t activate the power of the Universe World, he might not even be able to move a finger.

“This time, I’m afraid you’ll have to act so we can survive,” he said to the Divine Sky-connecting Tree.

The tree’s voice traveled from the Universe World. “I can’t leave the Universe World. Even if I attack, I might not be able to stop the bronze city. But if you use the Reverse God Stele, you might be able to resolve the crisis.”

“Reverse God Stele?” Zhang Ruochen was doubtful.

The Reverse God Stele was only a broken tablet that he’d dug out of the Luo Water. He’d studied it for a long time without finding anything special.

The Divine Sky-connecting Tree’s voice sounded again. “After I grew stronger, I remembered some things. It includes memories about the Reverse God Stele. They’re all shocking secrets and I’ll tell you slowly later. Now, I’ll work with you to activate the Reverse God Stele and solve the problem at hand.”

…

Qiu Yu flew up and stood on the Mu Fire Bronze City. “Zhang Ruochen, if you kneel down and beg me, I can consider letting you live.”

The Supreme Saint power in the Mu Fire Bronze City was very limited. He couldn’t use it many times, so he clearly didn’t want to use it now.

Humiliating Zhang Ruochen could make Qiu Yu feel better than killing him.

Zhang Ruochen took the Reverse God Stele from the Universe World and placed it before him.

The broken tablet was six feet tall, four feet wide, and 1.5 feet thick. Very ancient words were recorded on it. Other than that, there was nothing special about it.

Following the Divine Sky-connecting Tree’s pointers, Zhang Ruochen activated the Rules of Saintly Way in him that had already become tangible. He sent them into some of the words on the tablet.

It must work out, or else we’re dead! Zhang Ruochen was a bit nervous.

Qiu Yu didn’t understand Zhang Ruochen’s actions, but he lost his aloofness. Controlling the Mu Fire Bronze City, he sent it down on Zhang Ruochen.

Boom, boom.

Zuling Field’s space couldn’t withstand the power from the city. It kept collapsing. The range also spread thousands of miles into the distance.

The city was about to hit Zhang Ruochen’s head. Suddenly, all the saintly might from the city vanished. The Supreme Saint power also disappeared. Even the runes inside the city started fading, finally disappearing.

A weapon close to the Absolute Saint Realm actually became a plain bronze city, losing its might.

Even Zhang Ruochen was shocked, let alone Qiu Yu.

“That’s due to the Reverse God Stele? So scary…”

But Zhang Ruochen calmed down quickly. He formed a huge palm print and slapped up, sending the Mu Fire Bronze City into the broken space.

Boom, boom.

The object that had been so shocking earlier was now scrap metal, falling into the empty void. Only Qiu Yu could survive by escaping beforehand.

“Zhang Ruochen, what treasure is that?”

Qiu Yu was terrified. His legs trembled involuntarily.

Zhang Ruochen’s tactic earlier had surpassed his knowledge.

The cultivators of the Heaven World couldn’t see the Reverse God Stele through the projection because the Mu Fire Bronze City blocked it. After sending the city flying out, Zhang Ruochen already put the Reverse God Stele away.

Thus, no one knew what had happened, other than Qiu Yu and Zhang Ruochen. They all thought that Zhang Ruochen had destroyed the bronze city by himself.

“Zhang Ruochen has a super trump card. Once he unleashes it, he has no enemy under the Supreme Saint Realm.” The cultivators of the Heaven World all got this kind of wrong idea. Clearly, they were very shocked.
