“You have more Supreme Artifacts?”
Lord Xia Yu was stunned and shocked.
Zhang Ruochen said, “What’s there to be surprised about? Xu is dead. His Supreme Artifact naturally falls into my hands.”
“Xu is dead?”
Lord Xia Yu was even more shocked. She instinctively couldn’t accept this fact. She felt that Zhang Ruochen must be joking with her.
‘What kind of person was Xu? If Xu wanted to leave, even a Supreme Saint at the peak of Thousand-Koan Realm might not be able to kill him.
“Has Lord Homless been to Ghost’s home planet?” Lord Xia Yu asked seriously.
Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “Xu felt that he’d lost too badly during his fight with me. He couldn’t explain himself to Ghost Master. That’s why he used Instance of Light and wanted to die with me. Unfortunately, he didn’t succeed.”
Lord Xia Yu looked at Zhang Ruochen with a strange look, she said, “How could you win? How could you force him to die with you? And how could you survive after he used Instance of Light? How- how many of your words are true?”
“Every word is true. I’ve broken 14 shackles,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Lord Xia Yu was even more skeptical. She shot him a look that said, “Do you think I’m an idiot?”.
She knew that just a few days ago that Zhang Ruochen had only broken through his first shackle of Hundred-Shackle Realm. Even if he had eaten a cauldron of Fugue Pills, he could not have broken through 14 shackles so quickly.
Even a Yuanhui tribulation-level genius could not be so heaven-defying.
Zhang Ruochen took out Violet Gourd and opened it.
Swoosh!
A black light flew out of the gourd and tured into a seven-petal lotus.
The seven-petal lotus spun slowly in front of the three of them, releasing a thick and cold Ghostly Qi.
In an instant, the sky and Earth became extremely dark. Hundreds of millions of ghosts roared, wailed, and cried from inside the lotus as if there was hell inside.
“Pleiades Lotus!”
Lord Xia Yu opened her red lips slightly. Her pretty face was full of excitement. She stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Did you really force Xu to death? Did you really break 14 shackles? Are you still human?”
At this moment, she finally believed a little. However, her heart was in a mess as she felt humiliated. She felt as if she was being pressed and rubbed to the ground by Zhang Ruochen in all kinds of positions.
They were both outstanding Supreme Saints, but why was there such a big difference.
suddenly, Lord Xia Yu thought of something and asked, “Is it related to the Golden Mist that emanated from Ghost’s home planet?”
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, “There are indeed a lot of fortuitous encounters inside Ghost’s home planet.”
“Isee.”
Lord Xia Yu’s eyes shone with a dazzling light. She looked eager to try.
“The fortuitous encounters in Ghost’s home planet are extremely dangerous. You will die trying to take them,” Zhang Ruochen said rudely.
He made it sound so absolute because he was afraid that Lord Xia Yu would try.
“Humph! Don’t think that you’re invincible. If you can get the encounter, I can too,” Lord Xia Yu said confidently, raising her snow-white chin and eyebrow.
Zhang Ruochen smiled and didn’t say anything more, “I’ve used Violet Gourd to refine Pleiades Lotus. If you agree to my conditions, I’ll give it to you now. You can subdue its vessel spirit.”
Lord Xia Yu knew the significance of a Supreme Artifact for a Supreme Saint. It meant that her road ahead would be smoother and she could crush all her opponents in the same realm.
Even Supreme Saint from Paramount Realm yearned for such an opportunity.
“We have the same interests in Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting. Even without this Supreme Artifact, I will accompany you through any battle. With this Supreme Artifact, I can only say that you know how to win over people’s hearts. You have invested so much in me. Do you really want to Woo Me?” Lord
Xia Yu asked with a faint smile.
Lord Xia Yu was very confident in her beauty and talent. She had won the hearts of countless chosen ones from Infernal Court. However, as her talent for cultivation was revealed, very few cultivators in her generation had a cultivation base that could match her.
Those who had pursued her before knew that they weren’t good enough for her, so they naturally stayed away.
Of course, the most important reason was that Lord Xia Yu had never been interested in romantic relationships. She was extremely cold to all suitors.
Zhang Ruochen hummed and turned to leave, returning to his healing state.
“You can just say it in front of me. There’s no need to beat around the bush. If you’re serious, I’ll definitely consider it,” Lord Xia Yu said.
Seeing that Zhang Ruochen was as silent as a rock, Lord Xia Yu lost interest and looked at Pleiades Lotus. If she could master a Supreme Artifact, her status in Bloodysky Clan would be completely different.
Moreover, this Supreme Artifact was given to her by Zhang Ruochen.
Who’s Zhang Ruochen?
The man of this Yuanhui Period. Zhang Ruochen is not only a Scion but also the grandson of the clan leader. He was likely to be the successor of Bloodysky Clan’s chief in the future.
With this, who in Bloodysky Clan would dare to target the Xias in the future?
One day later.
Zhang Ruochen’s injuries healed, and his spirit Qi was restored to full condition. The divine force in his body surged, and his spiritual power produced two vague senses.
One of them was relatively close to him, so he could sense it clearly.
The other one was quite far away, so he could only sense a general direction.
These two senses were his perception of Self-Defined Mark of Time on Saint Lord Zuo Mu and Que.
“It’s time to go hunting!”
Zhang Ruochen thought about it carefully but turned his eyes to the still unconscious Lord Sinluo. He said, “Moyin, wake him up.”
Moyin stopped practicing Archery. A Divine Purification Flame shot out from her fingertip and landed on Lord Sinluo.
Chi-Chi-
The next moment, Lord Sinluo let out a scream and jumped up from the ground. He had just extinguished Divine Purification Flame on his body when he was entangled by Zhang Ruochen’s Ghost-headed Whip. With a bang, he fell back to the ground.
Lord Sinluo quickly understood his situation. He roared, “Zhang Ruochen if you’re really a tough guy, let me go. I want a fair fight with you.”
Zhang Ruochen walked over and said, “You are not qualified to fight with me. Tell me, did the upper three races lure the Celestial Captives to ambush me?”
Lord Sinluo snorted and kept silent.
Zhang Ruochen said again, “There are so many Celestial Captives. They can’t gather together for no reason. They should have a hiding place, right? Where is the hiding place?”
Lord Sinluo still didn’t say a word. He just stared at him and sneered.
Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, “It seems like you haven’t leamed your lesson. Moyin, you do it.”
Alook of fear flashed across Lord Sinluo’s eyes. He stared at the sky and said, “Masters in the Mystic Eye of Myriad Realms, I want to leave…”
Before he could say the words “leave Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting” a vine whip with lightning struck his face and sent him flying.
Crack Crack!
The vine whip struck relentlessly, sending Lord Sinluo flying in the air, sometimes to the east and sometimes to the west. His body kept twitching.
Lord Sinluo let out a series of screams.
Moyin controlled the vine whip and said, “Master, I have checked the memory of Lord Sinluo. I know where the Celestial Captives are gathered.”
“You can check the memory of Lord Sinluo?” Zhang Ruochen was surprised.
Everyone knows that cultivators of important status from Celestial Court or Internal Court must have used divine force to seal their memory and protect some secrets. No external force could forcibly take it away.
Just like when Zhang Ruochen wanted to check Warlord Mara’s mind but was injured by the attack of divine force.
Moyin said, “I only found his memories and consciousness after he entered Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting.”
Zhang Ruochen was enlightened. He smiled and said, “I see. That’s right. The divine force of gods can’t enter Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting.”
“In the memory of Lord Sinluo, there is a large group of Celestial Captives gathered near the third Dark Star. The 12 Supreme Saints of Hundred-Shackle Realm and the Supreme Saint from Thousand-Koan Realm that we killed are there too,” Moyin said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Let’s go to the third Dark Star now.”
Moyin stared at Lord Sinluo and asked, “What about him?”
“He is useless now, kill him!
Zhang Ruochen said lightly.
Lord Sinluo was anxious after hearing this. However, he could not even convey his desire to escape from Battlefield of Celestial- Hunting at this moment.
It was even more impossible for him to self-destruct his Sainthood Source
He was struck by Thunder Whip the moment he condensed his power.
Lord Sinluo was extremely unwilling as he felt that he will die too humiliating. As a Supreme Saint in the Great Perfection stage of Hundred-Shackle Realm, he didn’t even have the chance to die with his enemy.
wait.”
Zhang Ruochen stopped Moyin that wanted to swallow Lord Sinluo. He reached out and grabbed Lord Sinluo’s head. Five streaks of blood Qi and spiritual power merged into one. They rushed out of his fingers and entered Lord Sinluo’s body.
Divine force surged out of Lord Sinluo’s head to fight against Zhang Ruochen.
However, the divine force wasn’t too strong. Zhang Ruochen quickly dispelled it.
After a while, Zhang Ruochen withdrew his hand. Lord Sinluo fell to the ground.
“Just as I expected,” Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.
Moyin asked, “Master, can I devour him now?”
Zhang Ruochen waved his hand and said, “It’s better not to kill Supreme Saints of Infernal Court on Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting.”
“But he wants to kill you,” Moyin said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Not from now on!”
“What do you mean?” Moyin asked.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I broke the guardian divine force in his mind and erased all of his memories outside of cultivations. He will be my helper henceforth.”
Moyin looked disappointed and sighed.
Lord Xia Yu held Pleiades Lotus in her hand and descended from the sky. She said, “Lord Sinluo is the son of Lord Chi Hun. With Lord Chi Hun’s exceptional cultivation, how did you break his guardian divine force?”
“No matter how strong Lord Chi Hun is, his divine force can’t enter Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting. The guardian divine force he left in Lord Sinluo’s body can’t stop me,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Gods couldn’t leave large amounts of divine force directly in a cultivator’s body.
Back then, Zhang Ruochen had been injured by divine forces when he had probed into Warlord Mara’s memories. This was because what Zhang Ruochen did had been sensed by the god behind Warlord Mara. The divine force had passed through Dimensions and entered Warlord Mara’s body, exploding at
that moment.
It was like Staff of the Divine Envoy that Moon Goddess had given to Zhang Ruochen. As long as Zhang Ruochen was attacked by a Supreme Saint, he could borrow Moon Goddess’s divine force through Staff of the Divine Envoy.
The Staff of the Divine Envoy itself did not have much divine force.
After waking up, Lord Sinluo followed Zhang Ruochen, Moyin, together with Lord Xia Yu and flew toward the third Dark Star.
The closer Zhang Ruochen got to the third Dark Star, the clearer his perception of Self-Defined Mark of Time became. He knew that he had come to the right place.
“Little Sinluo, you and Moyin will kill the Celestial Captives in the outer area. Don’t let any of them escape.
“Moyin, you have another mission besides killing the Celestial Captives. If the Celestial Captive from Thousand-Koan Realm wants to escape, you have to stop him at all costs until we catch up.”
After assigning tasks to Moyin and Lord Sinluo, Zhang Ruochen and Lord Xia Yu spread the wings on their backs. They turned into two streaks of light, one gold, one silver, and flew toward the Dark Star.
Different planets have different conditions after their dead.
The Dark Star was one of them.
Under the influence of the Dark Star, millions miles of the starry sky around was pitch-black. In addition, a cultivator’s spiritual power and vision would be greatly affected by the power of the Dark Star.
For Celestial Captives, this was the best place to hide.
As soon as they entered the area covered by the power of the Dark Star, Zhang Ruochen and Lord Xia Yu felt a huge suction force on their bodies pulling them.
As they got closer to the Dark Star, the suction force was getting stronger and stronger.
“Are you sure that the Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saint is hiding on the Dark Star’s celestial body?” Lord Xia Yu was afraid of the terrors of the Dark Star.
Once a cultivator below Supreme Saint realm landed on the Dark Star, it was as if one had become a mortal. He could not fly off the ground and would be trapped there.
Cultivators below Saint Kings’ realm would instantly be crushed to death by the terrifying gravity and turned into dust once they landed on the Dark Star.
“Just follow me. This Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saint is very powerful. If we can kill him, the points of Bloodysky Clan will definitely exceed 10 million. We will be number one in the top ten tribes,” Zhang Ruochen said.
“Number one in the top ten tribes. I’m looking forward to it.”
Lord Xia Yu used to be skeptical when Zhang Ruochen told her that he wanted to fight for number one in the top ten tribes. But now, in less than 10 days after Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting began, the points of Bloodysky Clan had reached more than 6 million. They were already number one in the top
ten tribes.
Qitian clan, which ranked second, had only accumulated more than 1 million points.
After a while, Zhang Ruochen and Lord Xia Yu landed on the third Dark Star. This star was only a few thousand miles in diameter and the size of an ordinary planet.
However, the gravity of the star was extremely shocking. Even with their cultivation base, they felt that they were severely suppressed. It was very difficult for them to fly off the ground.
“The material of this planet is very special. It’s 100,000 times denser than ordinary iron. It contains dark matter and is a substance to refine Regal Artifacts and Supreme Artifact,”
Zhang Ruochen squatted down and picked up a palm-sized rock. He weighed it in his hand. Unexpectedly, it weighed more than a million pounds.
Perhaps only a Supreme Saint could walk on such a planet normally.
“Hmm. This planet seems to have changed the flow of time. Does it contain special materials to refine time treasures?” Zhang Ruochen was delighted.
