God Emperor

Chapter 1930: The Last Leaf

Seeing Zhang Ruochen instantly suppress the female Deathkin, a look of shock appeared in Fairy Yuan’s eyes.

Although she knew that Zhang Ruochen was no simple character, she never thought that he would hold so many powerful trump cards. Each of them was mysterious, and there was almost no way to defeat them.

Zhang Ruochen did not tarry and kept the Secret Tome of Time and Space before he turned his attention to the male Deathkin instead.

Right then, the male Deathkin was also completely suppressed. After taking several dozen strikes from the Evil Spirit, he had lost the ability to fight back.

Once again, Zhang Ruochen used Yanshen’s leg and activated the ten-thousand-odd precepts in it as he brutally stomped on the black elephant’s back.

Using the Yanshen’s leg was very draining on his Saint Qi. Mobilizing lesser precepts was much easier on him.

Boooom!!!

A large area of earth sank as the black elephant was stomped deep into the ground.

The Supreme Saint elephant soul’s defense was eventually broken, and the male Deathkin was severely injured. As Zhang Ruochen stomped on him, he spat blood from his mouth.

Without giving his quarry another chance to resist, Zhang Ruochen activated the Zangshan Demonic Mirror to instantly seal the male Deathkin within it and suppress him using the demonic mountains inside the mirror.

At this point, both powerhouses sent by Pan Ruo had been captured, and their life and death were just between Zhang Ruochen’s thoughts.

It was not that they were not strong enough, but all of their cards at play were restrained by Zhang Ruochen, and they barely even managed to use half of their full combat potential.

Of course, it was also due to their carelessness for not joining forces in the first place.

Otherwise, even if they could not do anything to Zhang Ruochen, they still would not end up like that.

“Huh...”

Zhang Ruochen exhaled a deep breath, although he was a little worn out, he still wore a smile, and could not hide the joy in his heart.

Suppressing both Deathkin elites meant that he had obtained both the Supreme Saint-level dragon soul and elephant soul. There was now hope for him to completely cultivate the twelfth palm strike of the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike. Once that was achieved, the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike would evolve into a high-level Saint Art.

With a thought, Zhang Ruochen sent both the Zangshan Demonic Mirror and Evil Spirit back into the Qiankun Realm.

Once entering the Qiankun Realm, no one would be able to do anything at all.

“Master Zhang, what exquisite technique. You easily suppressed two powerful Deathkin elites. Yuan Yi has nothing but admiration.” Fairy Yuan smiled.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Fairy, you flatter me. If you hadn’t held the fort for me by the side, I’m not really sure if I would have been able to keep them from escaping.”

“Master Zhang, you are too humble. Even if both of them were to join forces, they would not be a match for you. However, Yuan Yi is a little curious. Who actually wants to meet you?” An inquisitive look appeared on Fairy Yuan’s face.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head slightly. “I have no idea either, but finding out will be easy. Once we are back at the basecamp, I’ll have you and Fairy Baihua to help out. Everything will then come to light. Perhaps we may even get more information about the Deathkin.”

“It is not good to linger here any longer. Let’s head back to the Northern Region Basecamp first,” Fairy Yuan said.

No one knew if there were any Deathkin or rakshasa powerhouses hiding in the dark. If more emerged, the situation would undoubtedly become very troublesome.

The two did not tarry and immediately rushed back to the Northern Region Basecamp.

As soon as he entered Zhen Yuan’s manor, Xiang Chunan rushed over and said, “Big brother, Brother Luo Yi is gone, and I can’t find him anywhere. Where did he go?”

Thinking of what Luo Sha had said, Zhang Ruochen was at a loss on whether to laugh or cry as he patted Xiang Chunan on the shoulder and said, “Third Brother, next time, don’t just casually rescue anyone on the battlefield, much less casually treat someone as a brother.”

Xiang Chunan scratched his head and looked confused as he said, “Big Brother, what do you mean by this? Is it related to Brother Luo Yi?”

“Stop calling him Brother Luo Yi. Luo Yi is not a disciple of the Shangyuan Sect. She is the Rakshasa Princess, Luo Sha. You rescued her in a daze from the battlefield, and I really don’t know what else to say to you.” Zhang Ruochen appeared helpless.

Hearing this, Xiang Chunan’s eyes suddenly widened with a look of disbelief on his face. “What? The Rakshasa Princess? Big Brother, are you sure you’re not wrong?”

“How could I lie to you about matters like this? Fairy Yuan can testify for me on this matter,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen knew too well what kind of character Xiang Chunan was. He was a very straightforward person, and once he acknowledged something, it was very difficult to change his mind.

Fairy Yuan nodded and said, “Luo Yi is indeed the Rakshasa Princess. When Luo Yi left the Northern Region Basecamp alone earlier, both Master Zhang and I secretly followed him. After that, we discovered her true identity.”

Receiving this information, Xiang Chunan finally believed them, and he could not help but say in fury, “She dared to lie to me! Damn it, I’ll never forgive her!”

“Third Brother, calm down. Consider it a lesson learned. Do not trust others so easily next time.” Zhang Ruochen comforted him.

Xiang Chunan nodded heavily and said, “All right, I’ll listen to you from now on, big brother.”

“Luo Sha should have escaped, right?” Ji Fanxin appeared all of a sudden and interjected to ask.

Zhang Ruochen replied, “Yes, she is very cunning and tricky to deal with. However, I’ve suppressed two Deathkin elites, and I would like to request that you, as well as Fairy Yuan, aid in interrogating them.”

“You can leave this matter to Fairy Baihua. In terms of interrogation, she is better than me. Plus, I need to head back to make some preparations. If something comes up from the interrogation, I hope you will inform me, Master Ruochen. Pardon my leave,” Fairy Yuan said.

Without waiting for Zhang Ruochen and the others to say anything, Fairy Yuan had already left the manor, seemingly carefree.

Since Fairy Yuan was no longer around, Zhang Ruochen did not need to take out the Zangshan Demonic Mirror or the Secret Tome of Time and Space. Instead, he let Ji Fanxin enter the Qiankun Realm for the interrogation. It was undoubtedly safer that way.

In fact, even if he trusted Fairy Yuan, she might not dare to enter the Qiankun Realm. After all, there was no deep bond between the two of them.

It did not take long for the interrogation to bear fruit.

However, for some reason, during the interrogation process, both Deathkin elites suddenly died.

“Both of them are from the Infernal Court’s most mysterious Fane of Destiny. They are not cultivators of destiny, though, but Deathsworn Guards raised by the Fane of Destiny. They are now following one of the three candidates in the running for Lady of the Fane of Destiny, Pan Ruo. It was Pan Ruo who gave them the order to retrieve you,” Ji Fanxin said.

Zhang Ruochen was puzzled. “A candidate for the Lady of the Fane of Destiny, Pan Ruo? Why did she send someone after me?”

“I don’t know. Just as I was about to pry into Pan Ruo and the Fane of Destiny’s secrets, both of their souls were instantly annihilated. As a result, no more information could be obtained.” Ji Fanxin shook her head.

It was clear that some secret techniques had been applied to both of their souls. Once something sensitive was touched upon, there would be a trigger that caused the soul to be annihilated, preventing any leakage of secrets.

It was undoubtedly terrifying to use such means to guard secrets.

For a moment, Zhang Ruochen fell into deep thought, as he tried to piece everything together.

He believed that there must be a reason for Pan Ruo to send someone to capture him.

In addition, the two individuals Pan Ruo had sent happened to possess a Supreme Saint-level dragon soul and elephant soul. Was that not a little too coincidental? It was as if those things had been specially prepared for him.

No matter how he thought about it, he just could not come to a proper conclusion. Perhaps he would only be able to figure out the reason after he met Pan Ruo.

Ji Fanxin spoke again. “Oh right, there is one more thing. Pan Ruo went to the Altar of Death and used some means to enhance its strength, creating a large number of powerful Deathkin elites in the process.”

When Zhang Ruochen heard this, he could not help but frown slightly. “In that case, it is even more imperative for us to destroy the Altar of Death. The longer we delay, the more harmful it is to the Kunlun Realm.”

“Before that, I must also find a way to improve my strength. This is not the Sword Vault, and I have no external force to borrow from. With my current strength, it is not enough for me to fight against the true elites of the Deathkin.”

If the Deathkin had powerhouses like Xuetu Shenzi, it would definitely be very difficult for him to fight them without aid from external forces. So, he needed to improve his strength.

Immediately, Zhang Ruochen decided to activate the sundial again, and first using the Godstones on him.

He dared not hope to break through to the realm of the Greater Precept World. As long as he was able to cultivate the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike’s twelfth palm to full completion, his strength would greatly improve.

Also, there was the fifth level of the Swordsmanship of Time. If he could have a breakthrough there, it would also improve his strength.

By the time he was done with seclusion, the Five-Element Soil would probably be sent over from the Five-Element Celestial Domain. By then, he could go back to the Cliff of Doom to collect the remaining eleven Godstones.

Beneath the sundial, Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged while the Ancient Abyssal Blade stood aside, absorbing and refining the weapons of various grades.

Next to Zhang Ruochen were Ji Fanxin, Xiang Chunan, Feng Yan, Pei Yutian, and even the various powerhouses of the Sword Sanctum and Ming Sect.

Only by having more people around could he maximize the value of the Godstone.

As before, Zhang Ruochen released all six Saint Souls and tried to comprehend the Path of the Palm, the Path of Sword, the Path of Time and Space, or the Saint Path Precepts. The multiple use of one mind was a benefit of cultivating several Saint Souls.

“The Supreme Saint dragon soul and elephant soul are both extremely powerful. As strong as my body is now, trying to refine them into my arms won’t be easy. Before that, I need to increase my body’s strength even more, and the last leaf of the Seven-star Divine Lingzhi should come in handy,” Zhang Ruochen said in a whisper.

The Seven-star Divine Lingzhi had seven leaves in total, each with extraordinary effects, and even the gods yearned to get their hands on it.

When he had gotten the Seven-star Divine Lingzhi back then, Zhang Ruochen had given the phoenix-shaped leaf to Elder Xuanji to bring him back to life.

He then gave the Qilin Leaf to Hanxue as a protective talisman.

During the birth of the Qiankun Realm, Princess Bai Li, the Mastadon-Devouring Rabbit, and Demon Ape had eaten the Azure Dragon Leaf, the White Tiger Leaf, as well as the Xuanwu Turtle Leaf.

Later on, Yueshen took the Moonleaf to restore her divine power.

So now, the Seven-star Divine Lingzhi only had one final leaf left, the Sunleaf. It was like a scorching sun that hung above the sky.

The Sunleaf contained tremendous power, and it was full of Yang Qi. If he could refine it, it would help greatly in cultivating the twelfth palm of the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike.

At the same time, the Sunleaf’s power could also refine his flesh and blood, allowing him an amazing recovery ability, which was equivalent to having an immortal body.

Zhang Ruochen unleashed his abilities and plucked the Sunleaf.

Within the Qiankun Realm, he was almost invincible, and no matter how powerful the Seven-star Divine Lingzhi was, it could not resist him.

After losing the Sunleaf, the entire Qiankun Realm became a little dimmer, while the Seven-star Divine Lingzhi became bald. Who knew how long it would take for a new set of seven divine leaves to grow again.
