God Emperor

Chapter 1571: Kongling Island

Comprehending the first Rule of Truth meant officially entering the field. Next, Zhang Ruochen’s speed quickened obviously.

The second rule, third...

In only seven days, he figured out the nine rules in the first image.

He sat cross-legged on the ground and tried to use the Rules of Truth. As expected, he had some perceptions.

“Thousand-hand Dragon and Elephant.” Zhang Ruochen shot up instantly and performed one move from the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm. He added in the Rules of Truth that he’d just figured out and his palm technique strengthened instantly.

Palm prints appeared everywhere around him, like he’d transformed into a Thousand-hand Buddha.

Boom.

The strong palm force hit the wall.

The wall caved in slightly and shook like a ripple, dissolving Zhang Rouchen’s palm force. A moment later, the walls recovered.

Demonic Sound woke up from the huge force and immediately asked, “Master, you already finished comprehending the first image?”

“It should count as comprehending it completely.”

Zhang Ruochen stood up tall under the wall and looked at his hands. That palm earlier had indeed unleashed twice as much power.

Before, when he faced strong figures like Wang Xu, Zhang Ruochen had to drink the Dragon and Mad Oxen Wine to compete in physical strength. After grasping the Rules of Truth, he could have that kind of power even without drinking the wine.

Zhang Ruochen was making up for his past weaknesses.

Demonic Sound was in disbelief. This was too fast! Only seven days had passed. After all, she hadn’t even figured out one rule yet.

Actually, Zhang Ruochen was so fast because before coming, he already had a certain understanding of the Way of Truth.

Continue.

Zhang Ruochen sat down before the second image and focused his gaze.

There were two tiny dots on the image. As Zhang Ruochen poured his Spiritual Power in, the two dots started swimming quickly like two fish. It was impossible to focus on them.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to study one first, but it was completely useless.

When he tried to study one dot, the other one would automatically enter his sight and distract him. He couldn’t stay focused at all.

He fought with the two dots like that and time flew by. Three days passed quickly.

It must be that I didn’t use the correct method. But how should I study them?

Zhang Ruochen didn’t continue to waste time on this. He prepared to return to the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo and study the pictures left behind by the Tree God. He would come back to this second picture after finding the correct method.

“Do you two have any results?” Zhang Ruochen asked Demonic Sound and the sword spirit.

Demonic Sound was a bit disappointed in herself. She shook her head. “It’s too hard. It seems like I’m better at absorbing other people’s Saintly Way.”

“I comprehended four Rules of Truth,” the sword spirit said.

Zhang Ruochen was quite surprised. After all, if it comprehended four rules, then it was only a matter of time before it figured out the entire image.

But then, Zhang Ruochen felt that it wasn’t too strange.

The Abyss Ancient Sword was created out of divine metal. How could its sword spirit be a regular weapon spirit? It was normal for it to be highly perceptive.

“How long will it take for you to comprehend the entire image?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“At most three days,” it replied.

“Okay, I’ll wait three days for you,” Zhang Ruochen said.

In the next three days, Zhang Ruochen didn’t go observe the second image. Instead, he took out the rules emperor weapon to study the Rules of Palm Way.

Not only were there active Rules of Truth in the room, it was also very suitable to study other Rules of Saintly Way.

Zhang Ruochen’s speed of grasping the Rules of Palm Way was much faster than the outside world. He had a new breakthrough in three short days. He now had 12 Rules of Palm Way in his body.

The cultivation environment is too miraculous. It would be so nice if I could stay in the Truth Godly Palace forever. I would definitely improve greatly and quickly reach the first step Saint King Realm.

Even Zhang Ruochen was tempted to enter the Truth Godly Palace.

After all, if he became a disciple of the Truth Godly Palace, he would be able to study inside the godly palace and receive more than other cultivators.

Of course, there were both pros and cons to this.

If he became a disciple, he would definitely face many restrictions. He would also have to work for the palace and not have the freedom to do what he wanted like he did now.

Plus, Zhang Ruochen was a troublesome figure now. Even if he wanted to enter the Truth Godly Palace, they might not accept him.

The sword spirit of the Abyss Ancient Sword had already comprehended the entire first image. Zhang Ruochen put it and Demonic Sound away again and exited the cultivation room.

My agreement with Lingxi and the others was ten days, Zhang Ruochen thought. Thirteen days have passed now. I wonder where they’re waiting for me at.

A large group of Cloud Field cultivators were still outside the Mirror Fragrance Cliff Dojo. Without Zhang Ruochen’s Space Transfer Formation, they wouldn’t be able to return to the dojo at all.

Thus, Zhang Ruochen guessed that they were still waiting outside the Truth Godly Palace.

As soon as he exited the cultivation room, Zhang Ruochen saw a second-tier disciple of the Truth Godly Palace standing outside. He seemed to be waiting for him.

That second-tier disciple was an Absolute Saint. Seeing Zhang Ruochen walk out, he smiled. “I am Feng Yezi, a second-tier disciple of the Truth Godly Palace. I am waiting for Crown Prince Ruochen as per my master’s order.”

Crown Prince Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen was quite interested in this name.

It was evident that the other had searched his background and knew that he was the crown prince of the Sacred Central Empire.

“Who is your master?” he asked.

“Feng Yan,” Feng Yezi said.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t surprised. “Did you see the other cultivators from Guanghan Field?”

“My master already invited them to visit Kongling Island three days ago,” Feng Yezi said.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t know whether the other was friend or foe, so he went on alert. “Where is Kongling Island?”

“Crown Prince Ruochen, please follow me.”

Feng Yezi smiled and went down the steps, leading the way.

There was no other choice. Mu Lingxi and the others had already gone to Kongling Island. Zhang Ruochen had to go even if it was a trap.

However, he believed that a disciple of the Truth Godly Palace wouldn’t attack him in the Truth Heavenly Domain. If news of it spread, it would definitely ruin the reputation of the Truth Godly Palace.

Kongling Island wasn’t too far from the palace. It was an island that hovered in the sky.

If one stood on the island and looked at the Truth Godly Palace, the palace seemed to be very close.

The Rules of Saintly Way are extremely active within 10,000 miles of the Truth Godly Palace, Zhang Ruochen thought. Since he can have such a hovering island in this area, Feng Yan must not be a simple man. I must research him when I return.

A majestic pavilion loomed in the center of the island. Pagodas and towers were distributed around the pavilion. All sorts of divine medicine and flowers were planted too.

In addition, there were servants dressed in white tending to the medicine in the gardens. They were young and looked clean and pretty. They were all Saints.

Those who could be servants here couldn’t be average. If this was in Kunlun’s Field, only the Saintess of an ancient sect could qualify.

From afar, Zhang Ruochen could hear a battle. Feeling nervous, he immediately sped up.

There was a saint martial field on the east of the pavilion.

Right now, there were two figures dueling in it. One of them was Feng Yan.

He stood in the center of the martial field and saintly power crashed within him like ocean waves. His body was like a mountain standing in the ocean. No matter how aggressive the other’s attack was, they couldn’t harm him at all.

“The Extreme Yin Nether Ice is indeed powerful, but Lady Lingxi, your power isn’t condensed. It’s hard to threaten me. If you comprehend the Rules of Truth, you’ll become even stronger.

“The origin feather of the Ice and Fire Phoenix is indeed powerful, but you haven’t completed Phoenix Dance Nine Skies yet. The origin feather is only the strongest when combined with a completed Phoenix Dance Nine Skies.”

...

While dueling, Feng Yan was actually giving Mu Lingxi advice, pointing out where she was lacking and telling her how to improve.

Zhang Ruochen stood on the side of the martial field, quietly watching the two who were dueling and talking.

For some reason, this normal conversation about the Saintly Way gave him an indescribable feeling.

This feeling was a bit odd.

Zhang Ruochen was never a closed-minded person, but he felt uncomfortable seeing another young man teach Mu Lingxi how to cultivate.

Is it because I care too much? Or because I’ve lost too much and don’t want to lose more?

Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes, working hard to force away that odd feeling. This emotion shouldn’t belong to him.

Because he had too many thoughts. he actually didn’t notice that Mu Lingxi had already walked over to him. A lovely laugh sounded in his ears. “Zhang Ruochen, what are you thinking about? How come you’re studying the Saintly Way no matter where you are?”

Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes again to look at that beautiful face. Her smile was mischievous. Like the stars in the sky, she could light up the darkest and loneliest night.

“Xingling.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were dazed and he uttered those two syllables involuntarily. Then, catching Mu Lingxi by surprise, he actually opened his arms and hugged her tightly.

Tightly.

Mu Lingxi was surprised. As if shocked by lightning, her expression was dazed.

Because Zhang Ruochen hadn’t called her “Xingling” in a long time.

And...Zhang Ruochen had actually taken the initiative to hug her. This was unimaginable!
