God Emperor

Chapter 1685: Multi-God Mountain, God-Naming Palace

The environment here was too similar to the depths of the forbidden zone above White Bone Hill, including the ancient Yin Qi in the air.

Zhang Ruochen grew cautious. He released his Spiritual Power and space domain, covering a few feet in radius. This stopped the Yin Qi from invading his body and guarded against some other things too.

A creature with three horns on its head pointed at the ancient mountain in the distance. “Look,” it said with a quivering voice. “Is that...the legendary Multi-God Mountain? Is it the God-Naming Palace at the peak?”

There was a damaged palace at the mountaintop. It radiated with an ancient aura and soul-shocking power waves rippled from it. The top talents present all grew respectful and quiet.

The Wizard God Emperor’s eyes gleamed. “The legendary God-Naming Palace is inside the folded space?” he exclaimed. “This is incredible!”

“The God-Naming Palace is an ancient relic that not even gods dare to enter brashly,” the Great Senior said. “Universal secrets remain there. It’s best if we don’t approach it.”

Fairy Tianchu revealed a secret, saying, “When Heaven World was first established, a god once tried to investigate the God-Naming Palace and died within the Multi-God Mountain. Apparently, the mountain hides a huge secret that can kill gods and turn the world into silence. After that, the Truth Godly Palace sealed this place. No cultivators were allowed to venture in again.”

Roar!

A deafening howl came from the direction of the Multi-God Mountain.

It wasn’t like a beast’s howl or a human cultivator’s cry. It was very eerie and frightening.

When the howl sounded, a dozen men with lower cultivations fell to the ground with weak knees and trembled.

“Such terrifying power...”

Zhang Ruochen’s expression grew more uncomfortable.

That howl contained the terrifying power left behind from ancient times. It was the exact same as the power in the forbidden zone—even more terrifying.

That howl... Could it be the source of terror? That ancient forbidden being hadn’t died yet?

“Amazing, amazing. Zhang Ruochen, I am sure that this place is the same as the palace cluster deep within the forbidden zone. However, this place is too vast. We are now in a different corner.”

The Amazing Little Taoist continued softly, “Don’t think about the divine spring anymore. Get out of here immediately.”

Zhang Ruochen nodded and took a step back. Clinks sounded immediately. Now, he realized that the Thousand Star Maiden’s nine chains were still wrapped around him.

Sensing his movement, the Thousand Star Maiden asked, “Where are you going?”

Her slender fingers released Holy Qi into the nine chains.

Whoosh!

Nine different types of power emerged from the nine chains.

Instantly, Zhang Ruochen’s Holy Qi and Spiritual Power were locked. The Spiritual Power and space domain that he’d released earlier were also forced back inside his body.

Zhang Ruochen was speechless. “This place is dangerous,” he said hurriedly. “We must leave right now. If we continue forward, we might not be able to leave even if we wanted to.”

The Thousand Star Maiden walked toward him. She really enjoyed the feeling of controlling Zhang Ruochen. Her lips curled up and she chuckled. “Do you know something?”

Before Zhang Ruochen could speak,Fairy Tianchu’s sweet voice sounded in the near distance. “The aura of the divine spring has appeared again. It’s in that direction.”

Everyone looked toward where Fairy Tianchu pointed.

Purplish smoke poured out of a hill not far from the Multi-God Platform. As the wind changed, the smoke also scattered in different directions.

The wind was blowing toward them now, bringing the purple smoke with it.

After inhaling the smoke, the cultivators present discovered with a shock that they gained one or two more Rules of Saintly Way.

One must know that the purplish smoke was blown over from such a distance and already dispersed so much, but it could still increase their Rules of Saintly Way.

This meant that the smoke must be from the divine spring.

“The divine spring isn’t inside the Multi-God Mountain,” the Wizard God Emperor said. “I still have a chance to receive it. It’s worth the risk.”

That faraway mountain only looked like a hill when compared to the God-Naming Platform. In reality, it was huge and could be the king of mountains anywhere else.

Fairy Tianchu gazed into the distance and said, “Even if we don’t go, the cultivators of the Heaven World Sect will go too. I already see the spiritual intent of some people in the air. They’ve entered the area and some are hurrying toward the divine spring, but I think they’ve run into trouble and...”

Suddenly, Fairy Tianchu shut her mouth and stopped.

It was an extraordinary ability to see the spiritual intent from other cultivators.

She already had this ability when she was born and it melded into her soul.

Seeming to sense something, she said, “Everyone, be careful.”

Poof, poof.

A white spear appeared out of thin air and stabbed through a second step Saint King’s body, lifting him up.

The spear contained ancient Yin Qi. It seeped into the Saint King, instantly robbing him of all vitality.

One second he was a second step Saint King with strong vitality.

The next, he was dead.

Next, an ancient monster with a rotten body appeared too. He held the white bone spear and stabbed at another cultivator.

Poof!

“Ah...”

...

In the span of one breath, thousands of ancient monsters appeared before them.

A dozen Saint Kings hadn’t even reacted when they were killed by spears, swords, and other weapons. They fell heavily into pools of blood.

It was too scary... A Saint King’s vitality was so strong that they wouldn’t even die after being beheaded. However, they died instantly after getting stabbed by the white bone weapon.

Even more terrifying to everyone was that the monsters had appeared out of nowhere. Before this, even people with strong Spiritual Power didn’t sense anything.

They came without a trace and soundlessly harvested lives.

Fairy Tianchu instantly took out eight jade swords and stabbed them in eight directions. The sword formation covered all the cultivators of the Tianchu Civilization.

But...

It was useless.

A prehistoric monster appeared within the formation. It raised a bloody blade and cut down at her.

Fairy Tianchu stood in place without moving. She formed a sword print with two shallot-like fingers. Instantly, whooshes sounded. Sword Qi shattered the ancient monster.

She remained calm. “Little Jing, use your Origin Divine Eyes and find out what is with them.”

“It’s too strange. Formations seem useless against them.” The Wizard God Emperor was in trouble too. That alluring woman had died in his arms. Her delicate frame was cut in half and bled profusely.

Here, a Saint King’s life was as fragile as paper.

Many cultivators were terrified and wanted to escape.

But they discovered with fright that the opening on the spatial barrier was blocked by a group of monsters. They couldn’t escape even if they tried.

“Oh my. What kind of fatal land is this? Even a Supreme Saint will probably die of regret too.”

“Hurry and leave. Don’t try to get the divine spring anymore. This is a forbidden zone.”

The Thousand Star Maiden used the Origin Divine Eyes and found out something. Her expression changed drastically. “They seem to be...from the void...”

Zhang Ruochen looked at the blocked exit and sighed. “Here, the tangible and void exist together. Those monsters can walk freely between the void and real world. What we’ve encountered here are only Saint and Saint King monsters. If we encounter Supreme Saints, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

Here, a gust of Supreme Saint Qi spread out. All the cultivators present got goosebumps and were very shaken. They felt despair, like they were facing death.

Some of the stronger figures pressed down their fear and looked up.

They saw a gray cloud hovering above their head. It covered miles of sky.

There was half of a body in the cloud.

This was a human’s upper body. His hair was messy and his features were unclear. His body only had one arm. The other arm had been cut off by some sharp blade along with his lower body and disappeared.

The Supreme Saint aura came from that half of a body.

“Where is the rest of my body? Give it back, give it back...”

A deafening voice came from the ancient monster’s lips. That aura wasn’t like a dead being. Instead, it was like a human Supreme Saint at his peak had come.

The cultivators below all had splitting headaches from this. They didn’t dare to make a single sound.

Zhang Ruochen buried his face in his hands. It felt like his scalp would split open.

In the distance, the Thousand Star Maiden wasn’t any better off. She couldn’t hold the chains anymore and tossed them onto the ground.

Taking advantage of this, Zhang Ruochen broke free from the chains. He took out a seventh level Pagoda Rune and the Time and Space Secret Guide, prepared to activate them at any time to protect his life.

Gradually, the stronger figures of the Ancient Civilization Sect recovered. They gathered together.

The Great Senior’s eyes were sharp. “It died long ago and only half of its body remains. Even if he was a powerful Supreme Saint when alive, it can probably only release 10% of his power now. Qinglong, Luoji, you two help me and activate the Absolute Saint weapon to suppress him.”

The Wizard God Emperor and Fairy Tianchu appeared beside the Great Senior. They stood in a triangle and all of their power gathered in the center.

A ten-foot-long broken reddish bronze spear hovered.

Ancient runes appeared densely on the spear, releasing red flames.

The flames were extremely bright. It drove away the Yin Qi within a dozen miles. The sharp light that flew out of the spear also penetrated the gray clouds.

The Amazing Little Taoist stuck his head out of Zhang Ruochen’s clothes. “These people are quite powerful!” he exclaimed. “No wonder they dare to go against the ancient monsters.”

“They have a broken Absolute Saint weapon,” Zhang Ruochen said. “If they activate the Absolute Saint power, they might be able to repress the half corpse. The monster is already dead and can’t be compared to a true Supreme Saint.”

The Amazing Little Taoist shook his head. “You underestimate a Supreme Saint. Even half of one can still destroy the top Saint Kings with just a twitch of his finger. If they have a complete Absolute Saint weapon, they might have a chance.”

“Attack!” Great Senior yelled.

The broken bronze spear flew up from the triangle’s center. It released destructive Absolute Saint power and shot toward the half corpse hovering in the cloud.

Poof, poof!

Red flames burned on the spear. It was like a blazing sun rising up from the sky.

Everyone’s vision was overtaken by fire.
