Chapter 2107: Twin Kings’ Arrival

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

On the barren hill, dozens of elites from Thousand-Star Civilization gathered here. The one in the lead was none other than the Maiden of a Thousand Stars.

Five cultivators, including males and females, were found lying in front of the Maiden of a Thousand Stars. From the outside, they looked fine. However, they no longer showed any signs of life. Their eyes were wide open, filled with resentment and fear.

These five cultivators were the top elites of Thousand-Star Civilization. Although their cultivation was above the realm of Nine-step Saint King, and their strength was powerful, they eventually got slaughtered easily and did not even have the chance to fight back. It was because their opponent was Son of Darkness.

Not long ago, when the Maiden of a Thousand Stars had escaped from the underground, she immediately sent a message to the elites of Thousand-Star Civilization, telling them to search for Son of Darkness.

These five elites had accidentally discovered Son of Darkness’ whereabouts. Unfortunately, before they could send out the message, they were busted and mercilessly killed by the Son of Darkness.

After that, Son of Darkness had sent these five corpses back to show them to the Maiden of a Thousand Stars. He ignored Thousand-Star Civilization’s threat and deliberately humiliated them.

The Maiden of a Thousand Stars’ eyes were filled with anger. She inadvertently clenched her fists tightly, her body faintly emitting terrifying killing intent.

“Son of Darkness is going too far. Does he think that Thousand-Star Civilization has no one to hold him accountable for his doing?” An elder growled.

Another elder said in a deep voice, “Whoever dare to kill them Thousand-Star Civilization’s elites, they must pay a heavy price for this. Scion Number One, Three and Six are already on their way. They join hands to hunt Son of Darkness. There is no way he can escape.”

Thousand-Star Civilization had a powerful foundation. They had nurtured the Thousand-Star Scions. Every single one of them was extraordinary. The scions ranked top ten were extremely powerful. They were very famous throughout the universe. They had the potential to become top Supreme Saints and even deities.

Scion Number One was distinctively outstanding. He was the strongest scion that Thousand-Star Civilization had nurtured over the past ten thousand years.

Although Scion Number One was not the master of any Paths of the Ancients, he had a power that could contend with the power of the Ancients. It was the power of Stargod that Thousand-Star Civilization had passed down for generations. Nevertheless, only a very few people could master it since ancient times.

“Look at the sky over there!” An elder suddenly exclaimed.

When they heard him, the Maiden of a Thousand Stars and the elites of Thousand-Star Civilization looked up at the sky in the distance. They saw three lines of a bloody message clearly.

‘Dear Son of Darkness,

I’ll be waiting for a duel to the death with you on the top of a mountain of Nether Clan corpses.

Zhang Ruochen.’

The eyes of the Maiden of a Thousand Stars turned grim. Never had she expected Zhang Ruochen, who had just parted ways with her, to cause such a big commotion.

It was apparent that Zhang Ruochen had chosen a completely different method from her. Instead of looking for Son of Darkness, Zhang Ruochen wanted him to show himself.

All Nether Clan cultivators would get enraged upon seeing this letter of challenge written with the blood of Nether Clan elites. They would hate Zhang Ruochen to the core. None of them could sit still, including Son of Darkness and The Seven Top Killers from Nether Hall.

In other words, that mountain of corpses would become a gathering spot, drawing all the elites’ attention.

With a wave of her hand, the Maiden of a Thousand Stars put away the bodies of the five elites. She looked into the distance and said, “Let’s go find Zhang Ruochen. As soon as Son of Darkness shows up, we will not let him get away.”

When the powerful elites of Thousand-Star Civilization heard her, they didn’t hesitate. Immediately, They followed the Maiden of a Thousand Stars and set off.

Like the Maiden of a Thousand Stars and the others, the powerhouses from all parties had started moving swiftly. They all rushed toward the mountain of corpses, which was filled with resentful energy. They didn’t want to miss this significant event.

Jinyang Twin Kings, who were on their way, inadvertently stopped moving and looked at the distant horizon.

“Zhang Ruochen is indeed a madman,” King Dayang said in a deep voice. “He is audacious and insolent. Not only did he slaughter so many elites of Nether Clan, he provoked Son of Darkness. He won’t survive. We have to hurry, or we’ll lose the chance to kill him.”

In his eyes, Zhang Ruochen was already dead. The key was who would kill him. If Son of Darkness attacked first, they wouldn’t get their chance to work off their shame.

King Xiaoyang nodded. “We can’t delay any longer. Zhang Ruochen’s actions will definitely anger all the powerful elites of Nether Clan. Even if Son of Darkness doesn’t attack, the Seven Top Killers from Nether Hall will kill him. The Bone clan will probably get involved.”

Immediately, Jinyang twin kings turned around and accelerated to their maximum speed. They were racing against time, trying to take Zhang Ruochen’s life before Nether Clan and Bone clan did.

As time passed, more and more people arrived near the mountain of corpses.

A streak of silver light flashed, and Ao Xinyan appeared on the mountain of corpses.

Ao Xinyan said, “Captain, why did you suddenly issue a challenge to Son of Darkness? What happened?”

“I hold some grudges against Son of Darkness that I need resolve. You came at the right time. There is something I need you and the Re-Awakeners to help me with,” Zhang Ruochen said calmly.

Ao Xinyan asked, “Is it about dealing with Son of Darkness?”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said, “No, no one needs to interfere in my battle with Son of Darkness. I want you to capture someone who has clues about the key to the World Gate.”

As he spoke, Zhang Ruochen used his spiritual power to pass the basic information about the short skinny old man and showed Ao Xinyan the old man’s appearance.

There was a glint of surprise, then followed by joy in Ao Xinyan’s eyes. They would definitely have a better chance of finding the key to the World Gate with these clues.

However, the next moment, Ao Xinyan had a worried look in her eyes. She said, “Son of Darkness is a threat of Ultraten level. His strength is unfathomable. Are you really going to fight him alone, Captain?”

“The letter of challenge has been issued. I can’t back down,” Zhang Ruochen said firmly.

Ao Xinyan lowered her head. After a moment of silence, she looked up and said, “Don’t forget that you haven’t fulfilled your promise to me.”

“Don’t worry. I won’t lose this battle,” Zhang Ruochen said.

When Ao Xinyan sensed Zhang Ruochen’s indomitable momentum, she felt a little relieved. She then left the mountain of corpses for the time being.

The short skinny old man was very sly. If they wanted to catch him, they would need joint efforts from the Re-awakeners, Elder Patriarch Death Zen, and Corpse Emperor Tianming.

To accomplish their goal, they had to make some preparations in advance to ensure that nothing went wrong.

“Zhang Ruochen, die.”

As a loud shout was heard, a golden light suddenly emerged, shooting toward Zhang Ruochen like a meteor.

Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes and glanced at the golden light. Without moving his body, he reached out a hand and pressed it forward gently.

Kaboom!

A large area of space collapsed. The violent power of Dimension blocked the golden light.

The golden light revealed its true form. It was an ancient golden cauldron with a Three-legged Crow carved on it. The crow was lifelike.

The ancient cauldron turned around and fell into the hands of a valiant man in golden armor. It was none other than King Xiaoyang.

King Xiaoyang’s arrival immediately attracted many people’s attention. It was no secret that there was a feud between Sunshine Civilization and Zhang Ruochen.

But could King Xiaoyang defeat Zhang Ruochen alone?

Zhang Ruochen looked at King Xiaoyang and said indifferently, “I didn’t go find you, but you came to me.”

When seeing King Xiaoyang appear, Fairy Linglong and Ao Xukong frowned. The battle between Zhang Ruochen and Son of Darkness was imminent. Both parties had to preserve their Saint Qi and physical strength to be in their prime condition.

As a member of Celestial Court, no matter how big his grudge was, King Xiaoyang should have put it aside. After all, Infernal Court was their biggest, deadly enemy.

‘Is King Xiaoyang here to exhaust Zhang Ruochen’s energy on purpose?’

“Of course I came, because you will die at my hands,” King Xiaoyang said coldly, not concealing his killing intent at all.

As he spoke, he struck out Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron again, activating powerful Supreme Power, wanting to crush Zhang Ruochen into ashes.

Zhang Ruochen did not let his guard down. He immediately took out Zangshan Demonic Mirror to counter Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron’s strike.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen activated the Precepts of the Palm and blasted a palm strike across the air.

Accompanied by the earth-shaking roar of dragons and elephants, a dragon and an elephant flew out of his palms, carrying vast saint power, charging at King Xiaoyang.

With his current cultivation and strength, the power of his Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike had undoubtedly greatly improved. It truly displayed the power of a high-level saint technique.

King Xiaoyang’s eyes were icy cold. He formed a seal with incredible speed, mobilized his majestic Saint Qi, and condensed it into the form of a huge golden hand that was hundreds of meters long. He struck out fiercely.

BANG!

The dragon and elephant exploded. The huge golden hand was also shattered.

At this moment, another huge golden hand appeared behind Zhang Ruochen. Apparently, its owner was trying to seize the best opportunity to attack.

The giant golden hand came with a terrifying power. It was so menacing and overbearing that even a star could be shattered before it.

BOOM!

Zhang Ruochen was hit by the giant golden hand. His body exploded, but there was no blood or flesh sent flying.

It turned out it was not Zhang Ruochen’s real body but only his afterimage.

‘It’s a pity that such an accurate attack could not kill Zhang Ruochen. He could even perform dimensional techniques on True Dragon Island.” King Xiaoyang sighed.

The dimensional suppression on True Dragon Island was so strong that even cultivators could not fly, let alone perform dimensional techniques.

This could only mean that Zhang Ruochen’s attainments in the Path of Dimension had reached an astonishing level. His movements were not restricted as much as others under the special environment of True Dragon Island.

Zhang Ruochen appeared on a giant rock out of thin air. He looked in the direction of the giant golden hand. A valiant figure in golden armor entered his sight.

His pupils constricted when he saw this person clearly. It was King Dayang.

He was certain that he did not see it wrongly. This person was King Dayang, who had blown up his saint source. Now, he reappeared in front of him alive.

“What’s going on? King Dayang is still alive.”

The Maiden of a Thousand Stars’ eyes were filled with surprise.

She had witnessed King Dayang’s self-detonation with her own eyes. In that situation, King Dayang couldn’t possibly have left anything behind. How could he remain unscathed?

The same went to the powerhouses of Thousand-Star Civilization. They were also stunned in bewilderment.

King Dayang walked over from the horizon like a slowly rising blazing sun. “Why? Are you surprised to see me?”

The lethal blow was King Dayang’s attack.

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze moved between King Xiaoyang and King Dayang, and he figured out something. “I’m really surprised that a person who was supposed to stay dead has reappeared in front of me.

“If I’m not wrong, you must have practiced some kind of secret techniques.

“Your lives were bonded together—you can live and die together. No wonder King Xiaoyang escaped alone.”

Zhang Ruochen had sensed King Xiaoyang’s aura from King Dayang. The two seemed to be indistinguishable.

King Dayang said, “Cut the crap. We will settle a score with you, new and old feuds together.”

Almost at the same time, the bodies of King Dayang and King Xiaoyang shone with bright golden light. They turned into two golden suns and flew into the sky.

The two suns soared into the sky and immediately released majestic golden saint power. It was extremely so hot that it could melt everything.

Driven by the golden saint power, Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron immediately released a vast and terrifying aura. It was like an ancient golden crow waking up from a deep slumber.

In the blink of an eye, Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron became huge. The mouth of the cauldron was facing down towards Zhang Ruochen.

Under the suppression of Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron, the space within a hundred miles was frozen. It was as if the space was isolated from the world. Before Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron landed, the surging golden flames of the sun poured down relentlessly, going to melt and refining everything.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes turned grim. He immediately fused Saint Qi into Zangshan Demonic Mirror. He activated powerful Supreme Power to block the falling ancient Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron.

“Zhang Ruochen, you will not be able to block it,” King Dayang growled.

The two brothers had used up their vital Qi to activate the Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron’s strongest power. They wanted to kill Zhang Ruochen as quickly as possible to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.

They thought that no matter how many tricks Zhang Ruochen had, he couldn’t block the absolute attack force.

Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron had even refined deities to death before it was damaged. The two brothers didn’t believe that Zhang Ruochen could overturn the situation.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t say a word. He mobilized the precepts of Dimension, generated a large amount of dimensional force, and fused it into Zangshan Demonic Mirror.

Buzz

Suddenly, Zangshan Demonic Mirror shook violently, and an extremely dense demonic Qi surged out.

Zangshan Demonic Mirror contained an inner world with earth and heaven. It was considered a valuable dimensional artifact. Only by using the dimensional power, could one unleash its strongest force.

A vast realm appeared from Zangshan Demonic Mirror and crashed into Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron.

BOOM!

Golden Crow Ancient Cauldron shook violently and was sent flying. Jinyang Twin Kings were also hit.

The golden light dissipated, and Jinyang Twin Kings returned to their human forms. They spat out blood, and their auras became weak.

“How can he be so powerful?”

Jinyang Twin Kings stared at Zhang Ruochen, their eyes filled with shocks.

They were confident that the former Zhang Ruochen they had encountered on two previous occasions was not as powerful as he was now. The difference in strength was like heaven and earth.

They just couldn’t understand how Zhang Ruochen’s strength could rise so quickly. The Wuyuan Royal Flower couldn’t have brought him such an effect.

“Zhang Ruochen must have met a great fortuitous encounter on True Dragon Island. His current strength is definitely at the first tier below Supreme Sainthood.”

Jinyang Twin Kings had met one of the Four Heavenly Kings. With Zhang Ruochen’s current strength, he was no weaker than that Heavenly King.

No wonder Zhang Ruochen dared to challenge Son of Darkness.

Without any hesitation, Jinyang Twin Kings chose to escape. They were no longer Zhang Ruochen’s match. If they continued the fight, they would probably die.

“Do you think you can run?” Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were cold. He activated Zangshan Demonic Mirror and subdued Jinyang Twin Kings.

At this moment, a silver mace suddenly appeared and blocked Zangshan Demonic Mirror.

BOOM!

Because of the hard collision between the silver mace and Zangshan Demonic Mirror, the ground sank and formed a huge crater, as if a meteorite had hit it.

Then, a burly figure appeared on the battlefield. He grabbed the silver mace and stopped Zhang Ruochen from chasing after Jinyang Twin Kings.

“Let them go. There’s no need to kill them off,” the burly man said in a deep voice.

His tone was calm but with an air of absolute authority.
