God Emperor

Chapter 1994: Aura of Invincibility

As they ran into this strange turn of events, all of the Heavenly Realm elites could not help but fall back and not make any rash moves.

For a moment, everyone looked over and saw Zhang Ruochen who was still standing in the air above the pit. Many of their hands had sunk straight to the bottom.

“Is Zhang Ruochen really unkillable? Even a Nine-step Saint King blowing himself up beside him failed to take him out.”

“Shengming City has been completely sealed off, no one can enter or leave. It seems like the tide has really turned.”

“Not necessarily. Don’t underestimate the powerhouses of the Heavenly Realm. They must have many trump cards hidden, and Zhang Ruochen may yet still not be able to defeat them.”

“The situation inside the city is very dangerous. If the seal is broken, trouble might come even if we are outside the city.”

...

All of the cultivators outside were surprised as everyone began to pull back and drew a distance between themselves and Shengming City.

The abilities available to a Nine-step Saint King were not trivial, and even if they were thousands of miles away, they could still be affected by them. No one wanted to be collateral damage for nothing.

Above the deep pit, Zhang Ruochen stood in the air as a potent Imperial Purple Qi swirled around him. The Imperial Canopy formed once again, and it was clearly even more solid than before.

With the Scripture of Emperor Ming’s Empyrean activated, the Saint Qi of Heaven and Earth constantly poured into Zhang Ruochen’s body, replenishing the Saint Qi he had consumed.

Inside his Sea of Qi of Divine Light, the divine sun transformed by the Sacred Seven-star Lingzhi’s Sun Leaf quickly revolved, unleashing pure essence that flowed into Zhang Ruochen’s limbs and body, healing the wounds on his flesh.

On the surface, Zhang Ruochen was still covered in blood, and he seemed to be badly wounded.

However, in actuality, his injuries were healing quickly from the inside out was far more effective than consuming the Springwater of Life.

If he had not been really badly injured this time, he would have been able to fully recover in a blink of an eye.

“To let a Nine-step Saint King blow himself up. Feng Gudao, you sure didn’t hold back.” Zhang Ruochen looked at Feng Gudao and spoke faintly.

Feng Gudao narrowed his eyes and gloomily said, “Unfortunately, his death was worthless. Zhang Ruochen, you sure are hard to kill.”

“If I wasn’t hard to kill, I would have been dead many times over. I have no grudges against you lot and have no intentions of provoking any of you, yet all of you are after my life. For that reason, you’ve cruelly killed so many innocent people.

“Now is the time for you to repay that blood debt with your lives. I will use your blood as a funerary offering to all of the people of Shengming who died unjustly.”

As he said that, Zhang Ruochen unleashed a monstrous killing intent.

Before he even finished speaking, Zhang Ruochen had already struck and stuck one of his hands out casually.

The might of heaven and earth inside Shengming City surged and transformed into a colossal hand a hundred feet wide as it grabbed at one of the Heavenly Realm Nine-step Saint King.

The Nine-step Saint King’s eyes sharpened as he immediately took out a Sacred Artifact of Seventh Radiance. It was an ancient bronze bell, and amidst its ringing, it unleashed terrifying ripples of power as it tried to destroy the colossal hand.

However, before the ancient bronze bell could even approach the hand, it was inexplicably frozen in place, and its power was shackled.

Seeing this, the Nine-step Saint King could not help but feel a chill on his scalp. He immediately wanted to flee.

Unfortunately for him, like the ancient bronze bell, he too was shackled in place and could not move.

A deep shade of horror appeared in his eyes as the colossal hand grabbed him with nary any resistance.

The next moment, the Nine-step Saint King and his sacred artifact were both brought before Zhang Ruochen.

“Moyin, your nutrients are here!”

Zhang Ruochen suppressed the sacred artifact of Seventh Radiance and summoned Moyin at the same time.

Moyin poked out of Zhang Ruochen’s spine as she said with a seductive smile, “Thank you, Master.”

To get such good nutrients, she was naturally very happy.

“Saint Devourer... No, don’t!”

The suppressed Nine-step Saint King showed a frightened look as hopelessness appeared in his eyes.

Moyin would not show him any mercy as her roots stretched out and all stabbed into his body.

“Arrrghhhh!!!”

An extremely chilling scream came out of the suppressed Nine-step Saint King’s mouth.

His voice was so loud that it could be heard clearly if one was outside the city.

Looking at the Nine-step Saint King having his essence drained little by little, and then listening to his chilling scream, almost none of the cultivators outside felt a chill down their spine as their minds shuddered in fear.

That was a Nine-step Saint King, the top existence among Saint Kings, and now for them to end up as nutrients for the Saint Devourer, such an end was undoubtedly tragic.

In the blink of an eye, Moyin had drained all of the Nine-step Saint King’s essence dry, and the precepts of heaven and earth in her body increased by a lot.

“Master, if I were to consume all of these people, this lowly servant of yours can break into the Heaven’s Reach realm,” Moyin said excitedly.

She was the Saint Devourer; her essence itself was extremely powerful, and once she entered the realm of Heaven’s Reach, she would be able to fight Path’s Anterior powerhouses.

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze swept across the Heavenly Realm elites and nonchalantly said, “Don’t worry, all of them will become your nourishment.”

As he spoke, Zhang Ruochen reached his hand out again, forming another colossal hand hundreds of feet wide with the might of heaven and earth, as he grabbed at another Nine-step Saint King.

The Nine-step Saint King wanted to fight back, but it was useless, and he was easily captured and taken to Zhang Ruochen.

“I don’t want to become the Saint Devourer’s nourishment. Zhang Ruochen, let me go, I will submit, and serve under you.”

Seeing the fate of the earlier Nine-step Saint King with his own eyes, this Nine-step Saint King immediately begged for mercy in horror.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were ice-cold as he disdainfully said, “No need.”

The hands of these people were stained with the blood of Shengming’s people, and he would not spare any of them.

“Arrrghhh!!!”

Another chilling scream rang out and permeated much more than the one before.

Seeing that the Nine-step Saint King was about to be consumed by Moyin, Zhang Ruochen immediately struck at the next person.

Anyone could see that Zhang Ruochen intended to suppress the Heaven Realm elites one by one, and then feed them to the Saint Devourer.

As this went on, the remaining Heavenly Realm elites were undoubtedly even more fearful.

Even with the powerful state of mind of a Nine-step Saint King would eventually collapse in the end.

“Zhang Ruochen, your death will be miserable.” One of the Nine-step Saint King knew that he was going to die and could not help but curse out loud before he met his end.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were calm and cold, without any emotional fluctuations. Against his foes, there was no need for mercy, especially when he remembered that at least half of the people in Shengming City had been mercilessly slaughtered by these Heavenly Realm elites.

Zhang Ruochen’s heart became even colder, and against the Heavenly Realm elites, he had nothing but murderous intentions left for them.

Seeing this, the Heavenly Realm elites would naturally not sit still and die.

Since they were unable to fight their way out, they could only find a way to suppress or even kill Zhang Ruochen.

“Zhang Ruochen, die!”

A Nine-step Saint King of the Heaven’s Reach realm showed a menacing look as he struck an ancient talisman full of cracks at Zhang Ruochen.

Boom!! Boom!!

The ancient talisman burst open, unleashing a terrifying black thunderstorm.

The black thunderstorm exuded terrifying destructive energy and almost tore the dimension apart. Its power was not much weaker than a Nine-step Saint King blowing up his Saint source.

At the same time, in another direction, a Precept Dominion-realm Nine-step Saint King took out an array flag that was on the verge of breaking apart, and the target was locked onto Zhang Ruochen.

The moment the array flags were used, a devastating Sword Qi blasted out of it and slashed at Zhang Ruochen so quickly that it was beyond imagination.

Both the ancient talisman and the array flag were ancient artifacts dug out from Kunlun Realm. They were seriously damaged and could only be used once, but their power was extremely terrifying.

In order to protect themselves, no matter how precious the treasures were, they had to use them right now.

Snap!

Snap!

Zhang Ruochen casually snapped his fingers twice.

Immediately, two massive dimensional rifts appeared, swallowing the black thunderstorm and sword Qi in an instant.

Immediately afterward, Zhang Ruochen stretched both hands out and grabbed the two elites who had unleashed their attacks. He pulled them over and tossed them to Moyin for her to feed on them.

In a short period of time, six of the Heavenly Realm Nine-step Saint Kings had been suppressed by Zhang Ruochen and had become Moyin’s nourishment.

At this very moment, forget everyone else, even Feng Gudao, Zi Linglong, Chi Sheng, and Gu Tianyin all trembled as their scalps turned numb. Fear began to involuntarily grow in their hearts.

Most of those watching the battle outside the city had terror etched on their faces, as they could not believe what they just saw.

After all, only a handful of them had actually reached the realm of a Nine-step Saint King, and many of them were not even Saint Kings.

In their eyes, Nine-step Saint Kings were undoubtedly a high and mighty existence.

However, what did they just see? Those powerful and unparalleled Nine-step Saint Kings had no way to fight back against Zhang Ruochen and could only await their deaths in despair.

Every scene of what had just happened there would be unforgettable for many, becoming a memory deeply engraved in their minds.

“Zhang Ruochen sure is terrifying. It’s like he can go against the Heavens.”

“When Shang Ziyan finds out what’s going on in Shengming City, I wonder what his expression will be?”

“I could have never imagined that the end would be like this. Perhaps this is the outcome of underestimating Zhang Ruochen.”

“If all of the elites in the city were to fall, I’m afraid it’ll cause a major storm and the gods of many worlds would probably be jumping up in anger.”

“Could it be that Zhang Ruochen actually dares to kill off all of the Heavenly Realm elites in the city?”

...

As they watched the reversal of the situation in the city, few of those who were watching the battle could remain calm.

Some had a vendetta against Feng Gudao and the others, so they were naturally happy to see things turn out like this. They wished that Zhang Ruochen would kill Feng Gudao and the others.

There were also some who were very close to the Heavenly Realm faction, and they immediately sent out communication talismans in a hurry. They wanted to inform Shang Ziyan so that he could rush back.

On Mount Kongyue, Luo Sha, the Rakshasa Princess smiled as she looked on quietly at the situation in the city.

Before Luo Sha, many communication talismans were suspended before her.

All of the communication talismans sent out around Shengming City were all intercepted by her.

“Right now, if Shang Ziyan comes back with his men, things won’t be pretty. When the Celestial Court is fighting among themselves, the more dead elites the better,” Luo Sha muttered to herself.

As a cultivator from the Infernal Court, Luo Sha naturally wanted to see more Celestial Court elites fall, the more brutal infighting the Celestial Court had, the more beneficial it was for the Infernal Court.
