God Emperor

Chapter 2348 Xi and The Eight Sons of Life and Death

“Water nourishes all living things, but it flows calmly. It doesn’t compete with all living things, and it doesn’t ask for anything in return. Who can achieve such a state of mind?” said Que.

Following that, Que continued, “You say that I’m competitive, but what about yourself? Aren’t you the same? Once you step onto the path of cultivation, if you don’t compete, you’ll only become mediocre.

“I’m very curious. How can a person like you, who fights with people, gods, and heaven, cultivate the Path of Water to the Great Perfection stage in the Saint King Realm?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “You’re curious, and so am I. Why don’t we each ask each other two questions to resolve the doubts in our hearts?”

“Okay!”

Que agreed.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Since you asked first, I’ll answer first. The Path of Water means not only not fighting, but also tolerating everything “My Path of Water gives birth to all kinds of things, including all good and bad, praise and abuse, justice and evil. I can accept all of them because that’s who I am and the world I live in. I can live along with the good and evil no matter what.”

Que fell silent again and thought carefully about what Zhang Ruochen had said.

Zhang Ruochen asked, “I am very curious. Why did you appear on the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting? If I remember correctly, you were not among the cultivators of the ten clans at the Celestial-Hunting Festival.”

Que said, “Every cultivator who enters the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting has his own mission. The mission of the weak is to hunt Celestial Captives, while the strong have other goals.

“Just like the three candidates for the position of Scioness.

“Before you entered the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting, the God behind you also gave you a mission, right?

“I entered the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting with two goals.

“First, to kill the only Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saint, Lord Hornless.

“Second, to make up for the flaw of the Saintwill and cultivate the complete Grade Two Saintwill.

“To me, the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting is a cultivate, a trial, and a test.”

Zhang Ruochen believed that Que was not lying, but he did not believe him completely. Who knew how much truth Que was telling and how much he was hiding?

Que asked, “Second question, the Saintwill that you have combined now should have nothing to do with the Path you are cultivating. But why can you reach the Grade Two level?”

Undoubtedly, what Que cared about the most was the Grade Two Saintwill.

Although Zhang Ruochen did not guess wrong, he had indeed cultivated a Grade Two Saintwill. However, this Grade Two Saintwill had a huge flaw.

In other words, he still could not be considered to have cultivated the Grade Two Saintwill.

The harder it was to cultivate the Grade Two Saintwill, the more incomplete the Saintwill was. It was nearly impossible to cultivate a complete Grade Two Saintwill.

Until recently, only one or two Supreme Saints could cultivate a complete Grade Two Saintwill in a single Yuanhui period.

Que thought that his talent for cultivation had surpassed Sword God Feng Chen from a thousand years ago. However, he still could not complete the flaw and take the final step.

The Battle of Celestial-Hunting was his last chance.

Now, Zhang Ruochen was in front of him, making him feel pressure and urgency.

Zhang Ruochen said, “My Grade Two Saintwill is not perfect, but as long as the Saintwill is strong enough, it can naturally burst out the power of the Grade Two Saintwill.”

Zhang Ruochen’s Yin Yang Five-Element Saintwill had already fused with five kinds of Saintwill, which was considered top-class among the Grade Two Saintwill.

Even if it was not complete, it could still burst out the power of the middle-lower Grade Two Saintwill.

However, the Grade Two Saintwill that Que cultivated obviously could not reach that level. Its power was probably still at the level of the Grade Three Saintwill.

Zhang Ruochen did not tell Que the whole truth. At least, he did not tell him that he was walking on the path of perfection of the Saintwill.

However, this path was too difficult. Although Zhang Ruochen was very confident, he was also very clear that the chance was slim. He needed to seize the good fortune of heaven and earth to succeed.

Que sighed and said, “So your Grade Two Saintwill also has flaws. The hardest part of a Grade Two Saintwill is having no flaws.

“Generally speaking, a Grade Two Saintwill is formed by the fusion of four Saintwills. It’s like putting a four-corner scale on the ground and placing four Saintwills on the four corners. The selection of the four Saintwills, their strength, and compatibility with the cultivators themselves are all very high requirements if you want the scale to be the most stable. It’s almost impossible.

“If it’s a Grade Two Saintwill formed from five types of Saintwill, the difficulty would be ten times higher.

“I wonder how Wargod Bloodximius and Huang Tian managed to form two perfect Grade Two Saintwill. I thought Wargod Bloodximius taught you the experience of fusing Saintwill, but I didn’t expect you to be a failure as well.”

Fusing Saintwill did not mean that the higher the grade, the better it was. It had to be perfect and stable. The higher the grade, the more difficult it would be. This wasn’t a good thing.

For a top-tier Supreme Saint, fusing the third and fourth Saintwills wouldn’t result in more than Grade Seven.

The lower the grade, the greater the chance of success.

Only when he discussed the Path with Zhang Ruochen would he mention fusing four and five Saintwills.

It was already a great achievement for other Supreme Saints to be able to fuse two kinds of Saintwills into one.

Zhang Ruochen said, “It’s my turn to ask the second question. You don’t belong to the camp of the ten clans, but you appear on the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting. This is very unusual. I think you don’t have the right to interfere in the fight between the ten clans. Or rather, you have some kind of restriction. What is this restriction?”

“Why do you think I have a restriction?” Que asked.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Because… I found out that you don’t dare to kill people. Or rather, you don’t dare to kill the cultivators of the Infernal Court who participated in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting. When you fought for the Saintwill Pill, you held back everywhere. You didn’t dare to use your full strength.”

Que laughed. “So, you think I don’t dare to kill people, so you don’t want to live?”

Without any warning, Que flew out of the frame, crossed the river, and appeared in front of Zhang Ruochen.

Almost without any time, he was already close to Zhang Ruochen. The index and middle fingers of his right hand merged, and the two fingers pointed like swords, directly piercing Zhang Ruochen’s glabella.

In the past, Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation was too low, so he had never seen Que’s real face clearly. He could only see a black shadow.

This time, Zhang Ruochen finally saw his face and figure clearly. His face was thin and his gaze was sharp. Other than these two points, there was nothing else.

Facing an opponent like Que, Zhang Ruochen was naturally on high alert at all times.

Whoosh

The Profound Spatial Dimension, Null Time realm, the Realm-frame of Truth, and Spiritual-power Domain were all released in an instant. At the same time, Zhang Ruochen spread out the ten golden wings on his back and retreated rapidly.

Zhang Ruochen had seen Que’s speed before. Not to mention being invincible in the same realm; even among the Supreme Saints of the Thousand-Koan Realm, few could catch up with Que.

Of course, Zhang Ruochen’s speed was not slow either.

Rumble

Zhang Ruochen instantly retreated 6 kilometers and knocked down a long string of buildings.

Que’s fingertip slowly approached his glabella. Even if he used the Power of Dimensions to block it, the suppression of the Power of Time was still useless.

“Even if I try my best, my speed is still inferior to his.”

Zhang Ruochen was already prepared. The two fingers of his right hand formed a sword gesture, releasing a dazzling divine light. He stabbed out like a golden rainbow.

“Sword Eleven.”

In the ten years Zhang Ruochen was on the Dark Star, he had consumed the Ampliofruit and cultivated Sword Eleven to the top level. He was only one step away from the Great Perfection stage.

A ray of light flashed across the sky above the Yanluo Clan’s home planet as he stabbed out with his sword.

Boom

Zhang Ruochen’s fingers collided with Que’s fingertip, directly shattering his fingers, arms, and body. Que’s body was like mud and sand, shattering into smoke.

Boom

Zhang Ruochen’s sword only shattered Que’s clothes, turning them into shreds of ribbons that fell to the ground.

“Just as I thought, a trap.” Although he had expected this to happen, Zhang Ruochen was still a little depressed after it happened.

Que’s robe clone sat in the carriage from start to finish. He didn’t know where his original body was hiding in the city. Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in Noᴠel Fɪre.net

Such a big commotion naturally alarmed all the Yanluo cultivators in the city.

Whoosh

Whoosh

Eight light shadows descended in an instant, forming eight Supreme Saints at the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. They surrounded Zhang Ruochen in the center.

At the same time, the 17-story tower in the center of the city had dense array inscriptions. A thick pillar of light shot up. The pillar of light shot up to a height of 30,000 meters. It split into eight parts and fell down. It crashed into eight directions of the city where Zhang Ruochen was.

In this short period, the city was imprisoned. The eight light pillars held up an upside-down light bowl, turning this place into a cage.

The Yanluo Clan’s quick reaction and thorough preparation surprised Zhang Ruochen.

However, he didn’t panic.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at the eight Supreme Saints of the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm standing in eight directions. He said calmly, “Won’t Yan Huangtu and Yan Wushen come out personally? I’m afraid the eight of you won’t be able to keep me.”

“If Supreme Saint Ruochen underestimates them, I’m afraid you’ll suffer a great loss. Be careful not to lose your life here.”

A handsome young man, Xu, wore a loose black robe and held an ebony staff. He crossed the light wall of the array’s membrane and walked 300 meters to Zhang Ruochen.

Although Zhang Ruochen retained Wu Wuji’s appearance, the Yanluo Clan cultivators were able to deduce his true identity after he used the Power of Time, Dimension, and Truth?

Zhang Ruochen looked at the young man in front of him and asked, “Who are you?”

“Xi,” he said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “I didn’t expect you to be so young, Xi, ranked 13th on the list of the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. Xi, isn’t your real name? As far as I know, the word ‘Xi’ originated from ancient times.”

“In ancient times, the Path of Wiccan was very popular, and there were many Wiccan cultivators.”

“Women were called witches, and men were called warlocks.”

Xi shook his head and smiled. “Supreme Saint Ruochen is very knowledgeable, and I admire you. Xi cultivates one of the Ten Deva Paths of the Yanluo Clan, the Deva Path of Great Wiccan. It was created by the ancestors of the Yanluo Clan based on the Path of Wiccan.”

Xu ranked 13th was definitely not a simple character. With eight Supreme Saints of the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm and the help of the array, even with Zhang Ruochen’s current cultivation, he still felt great pressure.

Zhang Ruochen looked carefully at the eight cultivators standing in all directions again.

When they were fighting for the Saintwill pill, all eight of them showed up. However, their main focus at that time was to suppress the Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill. When Lan Ying attacked them from behind, they were all severely injured in an instant. It was impossible to judge their strength.

After careful observation, Zhang Ruochen’s expression became more and more serious.

The eight of them breathed in and out in unison. Their auras intersected and weaved into a net. They were one and the same.

Xi said, “Of the eight of them, four of them cultivate The Book of Life and the other four cultivate The Book of Death. In the Yanluo Clan, they’re called The Eight Sons of Life and Death. The Indestructible Great Array formed by the eight of them once trapped Yan Huangtu for ten days and ten nights.

“Supreme Saint Ruochen shouldn’t have come to the home planet of the Yanluo Clan. You’ve become a pawn for Que.”

Zhang Ruochen shrugged and smiled. “Will the Yanluo Clan let me go?”

“Of course not.”

Xi said straightforwardly, “The fact that Supreme Saint Ruochen was able to defeat Wujiang and unite the Immortal Vampires demonstrates your desire to challenge the Yanluo Clan’s supremacy.

“I have to say that the Immortal Vampires have indeed become one of the few opponents of the Yanluo Clan. Since Supreme Saint Ruochen is here, we must kill you even if we know that we are being used.

“As long as you die, the Immortal Vampires will not be a threat to the Yanluo Clan.”

On a ship outside the city.

Que looked into the city and saw the array activated. The saint light shone for thousands of miles, he chuckled. “O’ Zhang Ruochen, you think you’ve seen through my weakness in my state of mind, but you don’t know that I deliberately let you see it. Only when you see my so-called weakness will you underestimate your enemy and fall into my trap.

“I hope you’re stronger than I thought. How boring it would be if you died at the hands of the Yanluo Clan.”

The ship moved away, leaving only a clear stream of water.

Yan Huangtu stood at the top of the 17-story tower in the city. Behind him sat 64 Array Masters of the Supreme Saint realm, six of whom were High-Saint Array Masters.

With his hands behind his back, Yan Huangtu looked at the city in the distance, he said coldly, “Bring me Xue Kai and Xue Ling. Allowing Que and Lan Ying to sneak in was already a big mistake. Yet Why was Zhang Ruochen able to break in? Was the defense of the Yanluo Clan’s home planet so weak?”

At every Celestial-Hunting Festival, the Yanluo Clan could control the overall situation no matter how big the challenge was.

But this time, as the strongest warrior of the Yanluo Clan, Yan Huangtu felt that he was more than capable. Even if all the powerhouses were sent back, he still felt that he could not control the situation.

Que, Lan Ying, and Zhang Ruochen were not easy to deal with. Each of them was more scheming than the other. They were powerful and had plans. It was difficult to deal with them. ????????????????e????????. ????o????

They could turn the world upside down wherever they went with their abilities. A cultivator in a wide black cloak stood behind Yan Huangtu. There was no head, only two balls of spiritual fire dancing in the cloak.

The cloak emitted a hoarse voice, “Que came to our home planet to escape from you and Lan Ying. He wanted to comprehend the Path in peace so that he could refine the Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill. Lan Ying came to our home planet to take the Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill. However, besides coveting the Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill, Zhang Ruochen also came to our home planet intending to kill our clansmen. This person is the most dangerous.”

Yan Huangtu said, “Once the battle breaks out, a large number of Yanluo Clansmen will die. Que or Lan Ying, it’s the same. However, we can only kill one now.”
