Chapter 1577: Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterfly

Other than Zhang Ruochen, there were a dozen other strong Saints going toward the Heavenly Capital Saint Market on the cloud boats.

They were all from different worlds. There were winged cultivators from the Feather Race who were all beautiful and elegant. There were also tiny palm-sized butterfly creatures. They flitted around like a group of colorful butterflies, but each one contained terrifying saintly power ripples. They also spoke to one another.

In addition, Zhang Ruochen saw two dragons in human form.

It was evident that they had natural True Dragon Bodies. They had powerful Blood Qi and all emanated saintly might. Mixed dragons couldn’t compare with them.

The cultivators of each world formed small cliques. Only Zhang Ruochen was alone.

He wore a loose black robe and stood at the tail of the ship, listening quietly to their conversations. He wanted to collect some useful information.

“Zhang Ruochen, number one on the Saints Merits Rank, has appeared.”

“I heard earlier that this guy killed a dozen figures from Cloud Field on his first day to the Truth Heavenly Domain. He’s really fierce and strong.”

“That news is old. The newest information I got is that Zhang Ruochen crossed the first level of the sea and was so close to crossing the second. Apparently, he only cultivated in the Truth Godly Palace for 13 days before that. He’s a frightening talent. He’ll probably be able to rise up into the Truth Heavenly Domain soon.”

The Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies chattered nonstop. They were actually discussing Zhang Ruochen.

The Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies were a very frightening race. Apparently, their Supreme Saints could encase an entire planet if they opened their wings. If they spat fire, they could melt a planet into liquid.

Of the two dragons, the man standing on the left was named Xin Jian. He was tall with hawkish features. Hearing the Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies’ conversations, he chuckled softly. “The rumors get more exaggerated as people spread them. How can Zhang Ruochen be that strong?”

The butterflies chattered amongst themselves, clearly unhappy.

Then a butterfly with golden and white spots on her wings flew out. “Zhang Ruochen is very strong. I, the princess, would never receive false information.”

Dragons of any great world were all proud creatures. Pure dragons were especially proud and looked down on every other being.

Xin Jian had the arrogance of a dragon and had no respect for that butterfly. Laughing, he said, “Unfortunately, I was at the Sea of Truth at that time. I personally saw the guardian of the second level push Zhang Ruochen into the water easily. He fell in so pathetically and couldn’t even fight back. He’s still far from being able to cross the second level.”

The Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterfly was frustrated. “Nonsense. Zhang Ruochen obviously had more than 700 exchanges with the guardian of the second level and almost passed. Even though he lost, he left calmly. He didn’t get a drop of water on him.”

...

The two dragons started fighting intensely with the Heaven Fire Butterflies. The atmosphere grew tenser.

Zhang Ruochen sighed inwardly. Rumors were scary. Some exaggerated his abilities, making him into an undefeatable god. Others made him sound horrible and did everything they could to put him down.

Of course, the most surprising thing was that the Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies and dragons had nothing to do with him, but they were actually fighting over him.

They flew out of the ship and released their Holy Qi, turning into their original forms.

Roar!

The two dragon cultivators transformed into silver dragons that were dozens of miles long and flew into the clouds. Instantly, the sky turned silver. The clouds seemed to be made out of silver and the sight was magnificent.

Heavy dragon Qi whooshed through the sky, like thousands of dragons were flying.

Nine Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies transformed into nine huge clouds. They released heavenly fire of different colors, burning the entire sky into a sea of fire.

Boom!

Following a string of explosions, only a few breaths passed and the two silver dragons screamed. They rushed out of the sea of fire and fled to the horizon.

The heavenly fire wrapped around the two silver dragons, seeping into their flesh from the cracks between the scales.

They were two powerful silver dragons, but they now became two fiery snakes. They ran in panic and their cries traveled thousands of miles.

Zhang Ruochen was surprised. The Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies are quite terrifying. Even true dragons lose after angering them.

One must know that the True Dragon Body was the strongest under the Five Elements Chaotic Body and True God Body. The dragon race also had natural talents, so the two dragons were definitely able to kill a first step Saint King.

The nine Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies put away their fire and shrunk back to palm-sized butterflies. They flew back and landed on the cloud ship.

“Two stupid dragons dare to refute me,” the butterfly with golden and white specks said. “If we weren’t in the Truth Heavenly Domain, I would’ve crushed them into mush and buried them in my garden as fertilizer.”

The other cultivators on the ship had witnessed the power of the butterflies. They all grew fearful and tried to stay away from them.

After that, the nine butterflies started chattering nonstop again, but they stopped discussing Zhang Ruochen. Instead, they talked about the recent happenings in the Heavenly Capital Saint Market.

“I heard an auction in the Heaven World sold a Five Yao Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon. It was bought by a mysterious figure with 24,000,000 saint stones.”

“I heard too. I heard that he was Deity Changsheng from True Martial Field.”

“He’s too rich. He can pay millions of saint stones so easily. My entire fortune is probably only one percent of that.”

“That’s nothing. Back when Deity Shiqing pursued Fairy Tianchu from the Nine Angels Beauty Scroll, he gifted her a heaven divine pill, the Kunxu Pill. It’s worth more than 50 million saint stones. Anyway, those deities and descendants of gods are all extremely rich and big spenders. We can’t compare.”

“Princess, do you know that Fairy Tianchu even rejected the Kunxu Pill? So enviable.”

“There’s no helping that. Fairy Tianchu is from an ancient civilization too. She probably has a bigger fortune than Deity Shiqing. Plus, there are countless prides who pursue her. Why should she choose such a big guy?”

...

The Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies were filled with gossip. They went from the legends of deities and fairies to the private life of some disciple of the Truth Godly Palace. It was like they knew everything.

But Zhang Ruochen only believed half of what they said.

After all, they’d exaggerated Zhang Ruochen’s abilities too much and made it sound legit too.

When they were almost at the Heavenly Capital Saint Market, one of the butterflies saw that Zhang Ruochen was alone, so she flew over. “Hey, human, is it your first time going to the Heavenly Capital Saint Market? You have to be careful!”

“Careful of what?”

“There are many scammers in the market who fool first-timers. If you want to buy something or sell a certain treasure, you must go to a reputable saint store. It’s best if you go to the saint store of a top world, so you don’t get scammed.”

Zhang Ruochen was curious. “How do you know it’s my first time here?”

The butterfly looked quite proud. “Cultivators who go to the Heavenly Capital Saint Market either go to buy things or sell something they just got. Either way, it means they have something very valuable or many saint stones. Thus, very few cultivators go alone. It’s easy for them to catch the attention of those from the Demonic or Evil Way. Only ignorant cultivators like you would go alone.”

“I see,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Thanks for your reminder.”

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome,” the butterfly said. “Since we boarded the same cloud ship, we’re friends. Friends obviously wouldn’t scam friends. If you trust me, follow me to Hundred Flower Palace. It’s run by Thousand Pistil Field, number 175 on the Thousand Field Merits Rank.”

A butterfly had so many ways!

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help but smile, but he didn’t reply.

In the distance, the other eight Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies laughed. They seemed to be laughing at this one for failing to get a customer.

“You don’t trust me?”

Panicking, the butterfly went in for the kill. “Don’t you know that the master of the Hundred Flower Palace is Ji Fanxin, the Hundred Flower Fairy from the Nine Angels Beauty Scroll? If you go with me, you might be able to meet this legendary figure.”

The Hundred Flower Fairy, Ji Fanxin, was very famous in the entire Heaven World. She was like a goddess who was also very strong. Countless deities and heirs pursued her.

It was because of her that the Hundred Flower Palace could keep growing their business in the Heavenly Capital Saint Market. In fact, they were about to catch up to the stores run by the top ten worlds.

Of course, the so-called “meeting of Ji Fanxin” was just a ploy to scam Zhang Ruochen.

Ji Fanxin was the owner of Hundred Flower Palace, but she focused on cultivation and never cared about business matters. Even many Deities couldn’t meet her. It would be even more impossible for a nameless human to meet her.

Zhang Ruochen knew what the Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterfly was planning, but he still put on a thoughtful expression.

Ji Fanxin indeed is a nice trademark. Her credibility can’t be off. Instead of looking aimlessly, why don’t I visit the Hundred Flower Palace? Maybe I can buy Saint King dragon and elephant souls.

“Okay,” Zhang Ruochen said. “I’ll go to Hundred Flower Palace with you.”

The Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterfly immediately smiled as if her trick had worked. She flew back to the butterfly group and started bragging.

The other cultivators on the ship looked at Zhang Ruochen as if he was stupid. Someone even laughed softly and said, “Another guy who was tricked to going to Hundred Flower Palace. He really thinks that he can meet The Hundred Flower Fairy.

“It’s not really a scam. Hundred Flower Palace has quite good credibility and abilities. They just can’t compare to the heritage of saint stores run by the top ten worlds.”

A while later, the ship passed through a cloud. As he looked forward, the Heavenly Capital Saint Market appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s vision.
