God Emperor

Chapter 1606: Zhang Ruochen’s Intention

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to fight Qiong Ling directly, so he performed spatial move and vanished, dodging Qiong Ling’s attack.

Boom!

The Blood-Refining Demonic Mace hit the ground, however, it didn’t strike Zhang Ruochen. Instead, it knocked a couple of monks from the evil way away.

The Blood-Refining Demonic Mace fell onto the ground. Qiong Ling couldn’t be angrier; just as he was about to give an order to suppress the space, he felt a grave danger coming at him, about to explode.

He saw Zhang Ruochen take out the only Tiangang Purple Fire Rune he had, mobilized his saint Qi and infused it into the rune.

Qiong Ling was horrified and yelled, “Careful!”

All the monks from the evil way realized a danger coming. Some used defense-type saint weapons, and some tried to get away as far as possible.

Blue Fang, who was ranked seventy-third on the ‘Saints Merits Rank’ was the quickest to react. He took out a high-grade rune and pressed it against Zhang Ruochen.

Boom!

Tiangang Purple Fire Rune exploded, and purple flames spread, making rumbling sounds and dashing everywhere.

The blazing flames melted the gate of Yin and Yang Palace.

The power of Tiangang Purple Fire Rune could rival a saint spell of a fourth-step saint king.

And now, all the monks were suppressed at half-step saint king.

No monks were able to ward off Tiangang Purple Fire Rune. Everyone was trying to run away, including the leader of Black Demon Field, Qiong Ling.

Sizzle!

Some of the monks from the evil way didn’t react fast enough, and the purple flames burned them instantly, turning them into balls of fire.

There were more than twenty fireballs burning, and they were yelling and cursing in agony.

The demonic cloud on Qiong Ling was burnt thin, and his real face was exposed. He looked young, with a blue face, and there was an iron collar on his forehead. His eyes were slanted, connected with his ears.

There were eighteen pupils on that pair of eyes, nine on the left and nine on the right.

Qiong Ling sneered, raised his palm, and two gloomy demonic clouds flew out, covering those twenty-something fireballs.

After a while, the purple flames were dispersed, leaving only corpses blackened by fire.

Qiong Ling kicked one of the corpses, and that body turned into ashes.

In another direction, Blue Fang used a defense rune, forming a white light net, warding off the purple fire for a breath of time.

That time was enough for the monks from the evil way to escape, saving their lives. Otherwise, there would’ve been more than twenty-something corpses on the ground.

When they were alive, they were all top-tier beings from their large fields, and they had a ten to twenty percent chance to become supreme saints. Killing them meant killing a couple of future supreme saints.

Such a loss was too great for any large field to bear.

Everyone in Yin and Yang Palace turned silent.

All the monks from the evil way were on guard. They now knew why Shang Ziyan said Zhang Ruochen was a calamity to the Yin and Yang Palace. He was indeed difficult to deal with.

All the monks outside the Yin and Yang Palace took a deep breath.

A group of Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies flew in the sky and said, “That easy? He crushed the Yin and Yang Palace using only an attack rune?”

“An attack rune? That attack rune is worth at least ten million saint stones. I’d be bankrupt if I wanted to buy one,” said Demonic Butterfly Princess.

“Even with that attack rune, you need to have space skills like Zhang Ruochen’s to wield its real power. And you need to seize the chance perfectly...fast, accurate and decisive.

“Otherwise, the monks from the evil way would’ve fled no matter how powerful your rune was, then you’d waste all the ten million saint stones you spent on the rune.

“That means Zhang Ruochen is a force to be reckoned with. Hope he can teach those bastards in the Yin and Yang Palace a lesson.’

...

Those Heavenly Fire Demonic Butterflies hated the Yin and Yang Palace’s guts, so they all had a much better impression of Zhang Ruochen seeing him kick their asses.

Ji Fanxin, Queen Danling, and Fairy Extreme King all smiled, standing nearby.

They all knew that Zhang Ruochen had managed to crush the Yin and Yang Palace with one strike because they had underestimated him.

Zhang Ruochen knew that mentality well enough to make them suffer from a huge loss.

It was almost impossible for them to do it again.

Fairy Extreme King frowned and asked, “Zhang Ruochen was able to break the encirclement of the monks from the evil way in Yin and Yang Palace using that attack rune...why didn’t he flee?”

Queen Danling was also a bit confused. “Yin and Yang Palace has lost two saint kings and more than twenty top-tier talents. Zhang Ruochen has avenged the owners of those seventeen heads. He shouldn’t stay in Yin and Yang Palace anymore. Did Yin and Yang Palace use some other power to trap Zhang Ruochen?”

Fairy Extreme King and Queen Danling weren’t the only ones confused. The monks from Heavenly Capital Saint Market watching the fight were also curious about the reason.

Ji Fanxin said, “Zhang Ruochen wanted to take down the Yin and Yang Palace.”

“What?”

Both Fairy Extreme King and Queen Danling were astounded.

To them, it wasn’t one person, or even several people’s job to take down the Yin and Yang Palace.

The Yin and Yang Palace had experienced a couple of dangers in the past, being encircled by monks from dozens of large fields, but they had survived that.

It was almost impossible for Zhang Ruochen to take down the Yin and Yang Palace, and to be more honest, he was being suicidal.

...

There was a Star Observatory that was a thousand feet tall near the Yin and Yang Palace. It was made of saint jade, glowing with white light.

There were four divine beasts around the Star Observatory: Dragon, Tiger, Peacock, and Turtle.

The shadows of the four divine beasts showed up under the saint light. They looked like four divine mountains surrounding the Star Observatory.

There were two men playing chess on the two sides of the chessboard.

One of them was wearing a Taoist cape, looking refined and wearing a smile.

The one sitting across from him was Shang Ziyan, wearing three-colored saint armor.

Nobody could’ve expected Shang Ziyan not to guard the Yin and Yang Palace on such a crucial night.

Shang Ziyan pinched a chess piece for a long time before putting it on the board. He said, “I could’ve prepared better if I knew you came to Truth Godly Domain.”

The man in the Taoist cape smiled and said, “There’re still some flaws in the heavenly way. No matter how well you’ve prepared, there’ll be loopholes. You’d better leave it the way it was.”

Shang Ziyan put the chess piece on a spot on the board and said, “Are you really interfering? I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

“Who’s interfering? I only invited you here to play chess with me. Don’t overthink it, otherwise, you’ll lose.”

The man in the Taoist cape picked up a chess piece, putting it on the chessboard. Suddenly, the situation changed drastically, and Shang Ziyan lost a great many chess pieces.

An hour ago, Shang Ziyan had received a letter with the name ‘Lian Xi’ on it.

Lian Xi was the name of No Shadow Angel on the ‘Nine Angels Beauty Scroll’, and she was the senior sister of King Hun, ‘Queen Daxi’, the leader of her generation from Soul Field.

Shang Ziyan invited her to Truth Heavenly Domain to seize the saint soul of Zhang Ruochen.

Queen Daxi had promised him she’d come, but it’d been more than two months and Queen Daxi still hadn’t arrived. Instead, Shang Ziyan lost contact with her, which concerned her a bit.

Shang Ziyan immediately came after receiving the letter.

Shang Ziyan stared at the chessboard and asked, “Where is Queen Daxi?”

The man in the Taoist cape moved his finger and said, “Play chess with me first. If you can defeat me, I’ll tell you.”

Shang Ziyan said, “You Taoist people are always open and upright. You’re the leader of your generation of the Five Element Temple; how could you do something so obscene? Release Queen Daxi. Don’t damage your reputation.”

The man in the Taoist cape knew that Shang Ziyan was testing him, trying to figure out whether he had Queen Daxi or not.

The man in the Taoist cape smiled and said, “And you’re the leader of your generation from the Merits Godly Palace. You should keep calm and not disappoint me.”

Shang Ziyan thought for a while, smiled, picked up a chess piece and said, “You thought you could hold me off so that Zhang Ruochen could get out of the Yin and Yang Palace alive? Zhang Ruochen wanted to take down the Yin and Yang Palace, and that intention alone is enough to kill him. Let’s see who can keep calm tonight.”

...

Outside the Yin and Yang Palace.

Qiong Ling stared at Zhang Ruochen coldly and said, “You didn’t run away?”

“Why would I run away?”

Zhang Ruochen took out the Abyss Ancient Sword, holding it in his hand.

“Seems like you have other thoughts in mind, but you’ll regret not running away.”

Qiong Ling yelled, “Operate the formation.”

The guarding formation of the Yin and Yang Palace, Massive Heavenly Net Formation, immediately emerged.

The light spread in the air, forming a formation net, and the net bulged, covering Zhang Ruochen and Blackie instantly.

Whoosh!

A trace of black light rushed out of the formation, hitting Zhang Ruochen and Blackie.

Boom!

The three stone balls in front of Zhang Ruochen and Blackie were dismantled.

The three stone balls were made of asteroids, which meant they were very solid.

The power of Massive Heavenly Net Formation was tremendously powerful.

Zhang Ruochen performed spatial move, showed up beside a monk from the evil way and wielded his sword.

The sword light was as fast as lightning.

Before the monk could realize what happened, Zhang Ruochen cut his head and lower abdomen with his Abyss Ancient Sword, spilling blood.

Right before Zhang Ruochen was about to perform spatial move again, he found the space around him to be solid, which made him extremely nervous.

“Do you really think the Yin and Yang Palace can’t counteract you, Zhang Ruochen?”

Four black shadows with tremendous forces showed up in four directions around Zhang Ruochen, and all of them were holding powerful ancestral weapons. Blazing Sun Ball, Moon Pearl, and two Star Spears.

The four ancestral weapons froze the space.

The four great beings were the four Song siblings from Thousand Devil Field, Song Yang, Song Yue, Song Xing, and Song Chen.

All of them had complete constitution. Although none of them got into the ‘Saints Merits Rank’, they had defeated Blue Fang when they teamed up, and each of them was stronger than an heir from a weak field.
