God Emperor

Chapter 2138: Heavy Damages on Both Sides

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Yunchong was breathing his last breath in the giant pit.

Zhang Ruochen immediately took out a large amount of Spring of Life and fed it to him.

Jiang Yunchong was severely injured. Not only his physical body, but his Saint Soul was also severely injured. If it weren’t for his powerful strength and extraordinary bloodline and physique, he would not have been able to hold on until now.

Spring of Life could heal the physical body, but it could not heal a Saint Soul. Hence, Zhang Ruochen took out a sacred pill and fed it to Jiang Yunchong.

.

It was a Heaven Grade Sacred Pill from True Dragon Island, refined by the Elixir Master of the Divine Dragon race. It could even heal the damaged Saint Soul of a Neverwither Supreme Saint.

Then, Zhang Ruochen reached out a hand and pressed it against the hole in Jiang Yunchong’s chest. He mobilized dimensional force to carefully extract the extremely dark Yama Qi that had infiltrated Jiang Yunchong’s body.

During this process, Zhang Ruochen felt a deep chest ache. He tried hard to hold back when he nearly spat a mouthful of blood.

The last blow had been so powerful that even Yan Wushen—whose physical state was near Neverwither state—was heavily injured. Hence, there was no way that Zhang Ruochen was unscathed.

He had deliberately held back his injuries to intimidate Nether Demon and Nether Buddha. After all, if they knew that he was also injured, they would not miss this great opportunity.

Now, the spiritual power of Nether Demon and Nether Buddha was still targetting this area. Therefore, he could not show any signs of injury. Instead, he treated Jiang Yunchong generously to make it look like he was not injured.

After a while, Zhang Ruochen finally cleared away all of the extremely dark Yama Qi in Jiang Yunchong’s body.

The erosion of the extremely dark Yama Qi stopped. Under the nourishment of Spring of Life, blood and flesh grew back in the hole of Jiang Yunchong’s chest at a visible speed.

Jiang Yunchong’s pale face gradually regained its color. He struggled to sit up and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. How’s the situation in Eastern Region Holy City Now?” Zhang Ruochen asked with a solemn expression.

Jiang Yunchong’s eyes narrowed. He muttered, “Many of the ancient inscriptions in Eastern Region Holy City have been restored. The city can withstand any attack even if all Saint-level troops of Infernal Court join hand. It’s the safest place in Eastern Region.

“Never did we expect Yan Wushen would show up. However, when he started to slay the city, we activated the inscriptions in time to suppress him.

“Unfortunately, Yan Wushen was too strong. Before the ancient inscriptions were fully activated, he managed to escape from Eastern Region Holy City.”

Zhang Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief. Apparently, the casualties in Eastern Region Holy City were not as severe as he had expected.

However, with Yan Wushen’s cultivation base, even if it was only a short attack, the destructive power could kill countless cultivators and destroy many cities.

Ever since Kunlun had become a Battlefield of Merits, many humans had fled to Eastern Region Holy City to seek refuge. Therefore, it had not been difficult for Yan Wushen to enter Eastern Region Holy City.

However, after Yan Wushen’s attack, Eastern Region Holy City might no longer be a safe place. People would feel panic. And it was impossible to seal Eastern Region Holy City off completely and forbid cultivators to enter or leave.

“Has Eastern Region Saint King Manor been attacked?” Zhang Ruochen asked again.

Jiang Yunchong shook his head and said, “Eastern Region Saint King Manor is under protection by a Ninth Stratum Array. Although the place was implicated, it is still fine.”

“Since Eastern Region Saint King Manor is still there, I believe that the situation in the Eastern Region Holy City will get under control soon, and people will be reassured,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Otherwise, he, the nominal Prince of Eastern Region, would have to rush to the Eastern Region Holy City as soon as possible to take charge of the overall situation.

“Brother Jiang, you are severely wounded. If you don’t mind, you can enter one of my microworlds to recuperate,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Jiang Yunchong said, “Thank you!”

Seeing that Jiang Yunchong agreed, Zhang Ruochen flipped his hand and took out a green bead covered with profound dimensional runes.

This bead was snatched from Saint King Xuankong of Sunshine Civilization. It contained a Microworld of vibrant woodlands with a diameter of more than a million miles. It was much more precious than an Exquisite Dimensional Orb.

The green bead released a beam of Saint light that enveloped Jiang Yunchong.

Jiang Yunchong disappeared from where he was following a slight dimensional distortion. He entered the microworld of jungles. He was sent to an ancient and elegant manor. The place was filled with different types of flowers and rich Saint Qi of Heaven and Earth.

After settling Jiang Yunchong, Zhang Ruochen put away the green bead and performed a dimensional technique. He appeared on the shore of Luoshui out of thin air.

“Run!”

All cultivators of Infernal Court who could not retreat in time saw Zhang Ruochen return, and they were scared out of their wits. They fled in panic.

A cold light flashed in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes. With a wave of his hand, ripples spread across the large area.

Wherever the ripples passed, the fleeing cultivators of Infernal Court froze. They exploded and turned into clouds of blood mist.

Their items and Saint Souls were all put away by Zhang Ruochen.

At this moment, two streaks of Saint light rushed out from the depths of Luoshui and came directly in front of Zhang Ruochen. They were Moyin and the Azure Dragon.

Moyin said respectfully, “Master, Mara has been subdued.”

Great Prince Mara was in a miserable state. He was entangled by layers of vines and covered in wounds and blood. The roots of Moyin pierced into his body and completely controlled his movement. He could not kill himself even if he wanted to.

As a Great Prince and the son of the infamous Evil God—Majya, he had the potential to achieve godhood. Great Prince Mara probably had never once thought he would end up being in such misery one day.

Zhang Ruochen’s expression was indifferent. His eyes showed no pity. After all, Great Prince Mara had taken lives in Kunlun and eaten them without mercy.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen sensed something; he instinctively looked at the deep waters of Luoshui.

“Huh? I’m busted.”

Luo Sha—who was hiding near the deep waters of Luoshui—had a slight change on the expression of her pretty face.

She was hiding in a folded space. By using a profound Dimensional technique, she camouflaged herself in the surrounding space.

At the same time, she also had an artifact that could help her to conceal her presence.

Yet, such a perfect camouflage was busted by Zhang Ruochen. There was nothing Luo Sha could do about it.

Since she had been discovered, Luo Sha removed all her camouflage. With her hands behind her back, the enchanting figure walked out, showing no slightest fear.

“Even Yan Wushen was defeated by you. You are indeed my destiny,” Luo Sha said with a smile.

As she spoke, Luo Sha strode on her feet, stepping out from layers and layers of folded space. She walked out from the deep waters of Luoshui calmly. There was no panic in her eyes. It was as if she was not afraid of Zhang Ruochen at all.

Standing on the surface of the water, Luo Sha looked at Great Prince Mara. She slightly shook her head. “Mara, if you had listened to me, you would not have ended up like this.”

At this stage, Luo Sha and Great Prince Mara were in charge of the Rakshasa Army that entered Kunlun.

Although Luo Sha’s cultivation and strength had not reached the pinnacle yet, she was a resourceful, prominent noble who could play a significant role in the Battlefield of Merits.

Hence, almost all the other Scions and Scionesses of the Rakshasa, except Great Prince Mara, were willing to follow Luo Sha’s orders. On the other hand, Great Prince Mara had been doing things as he pleased, and Luo Sha could not do anything about it.

“I won’t play with you anymore. We’ll meet again, Zhang Ruochen.”

Suddenly, Luo Sha crushed a talisman. Streaks of silver light wrapped around her, and she disappeared.

Bang!

But the next moment, Luo Sha reappeared. She was shocked to realize that she could only move a few hundred feet away.

Luo Sha’s eyes were filled with surprise. The Dimensional Shift talisman she had used just now was created by a Supreme Saint practicing the Path of Dimension, and yet its effect was blocked.

“Still want to escape?”

As he spoke, Zhang Ruochen reached out a hand.

He released a large number of Precepts of Dimension condensing into a Dimensional chain that wrapped around Luo Sha.

Luo Sha sighed. She knew that she could not escape, so she didn’t resist. She let the Dimensional chain wrap around her. At the same time, she smiled bitterly. “Zhang Ruochen, since you are reluctant to part with me, I won’t leave!”

Zhang Ruochen dragged Luo Sha closer to him by pulling the Dimensional chain. Then he used a delicate technique to seal Luo Sha’s Saint Qi and spiritual power.

Since the Battlefield of Merits in Zuling Realm, Zhang Ruochen had dealt with Luo Sha—a Rakshasa princess—many times. And finally, he could capture her.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Luo Sha coldly. “Why are you in Luoshui? What are you plotting?”

He knew how cunning Luo Sha was and thought she must have been in Luoshui for a plot against him.

Especially during this time, Zhang Ruochen had all the reasons to suspect that Luo Sha had come with Great Prince Mara with malicious intention against him. He felt she might have some powerful tricks up her sleeve.

“Of course I’m here looking for you. Don’t you miss me?” said Luo Sha, with an alluring look in her eyes.

Zhang Ruochen had another episode of chest ache. He felt intense pain in his body. Nevertheless, he endured it. “It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it. All I have is time.”

“I treat you sincerely, Zhang Ruochen. Never have I harmed you. Why are you always so mean to me?” Luo Sha said pitifully.

Luo Sha continued after a pause, “Celestial Court has been acting unfair to you and Kunlun, and Heavenly Realm’s faction keeps sending their minions to go after you. What’s the point of staying with Celestial Court?

“Why don’t you take Kunlun with you and join us, the Rakshasa? I can guarantee that we will treat you a hundred times better than Celestial Court.

“I am aware of the feud between you and Empress Chi Yao. As long as you are willing to join Rakshasa and come with me, I can ask Father to help me subdue Empress Chi Yao and leave her at your mercy.”

Despite hearing this, Zhang Ruochen did not bat an eyelid. He said lightly, “Luo Sha, stop wasting your time. I will never join the Rakshasa that treats humans as food.”

As his voice trailed off, Zhang Ruochen handed Luo Sha over to Moyin, ordered it to keep an eye on her.

With a slight movement, he showed up in front of Fairy Tianchu.

Li Ruohan, the Fool, and the Butcher immediately retreated to the side tactfully.

They were aware that Zhang Ruochen and Fairy Tianchu had an unusual relationship. So, they were not worried that Zhang Ruochen would harm Fairy Tianchu.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Fairy Tianchu for a moment before he said, “Thank you.”

The blow sent out by Fairy Tianchu had undoubtedly helped him during his intense fight against Nether Demon and Nether Buddha.

Fairy Tianchu’s radiant skin—as smooth as cream—was illuminated with a white Saint light. It was as if she were Goddess of Luoshui. “You always thank me. Actually... There’s no need for you to be this polite,” said Fairy Tianchu with a smile on her face.

Her smile lit up the entire world. Nothing was more beautiful than it.

After Zhang Ruochen looked at her for a bit longer, he suddenly felt a sweetness in his throat and almost spat out blood.

Even though he hid it well, Fairy Tianchu could sense his condition at a close distance. She immediately said, “It’s rare to see you in Luoshui. Please join me at Nine Carols Star!” Her tone was delicate and soft.

Zhang Ruochen immediately understood and said, “Sorry to bother you.”

Fairy Tianchu’s tall and beautiful figure walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side. She held his hand with a warm and soft arm.

At the same time, she secretly supported his body.

She looked like a beautiful, decent, and sensible wife welcoming her husband, who had returned from afar.

Swoosh–

Fairy Tianchu drew a line in the air with her fair finger. Luoshui was split, and a golden path emerged under her feet, leading directly to Nine Carols Star.

She and Zhang Ruochen passed through the path and flew out.

Seeing this, Li Miaohan, Moyin, and the others followed without hesitation.

When the cultivators of Celestial Court saw Zhang Ruochen and Fairy Tianchu entering Nine Carols Star like a couple, they let out a long sigh of relief.

Zhang Ruochen’s aura was too intimidating, making them hard to breathe, and they could not do anything about it.

Cough.

As soon as Zhang Ruochen stepped into Nine Carols Star, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body swayed, and he almost fell to the ground.

His injuries were too severe. At this moment, he could no longer hold back.

Fortunately, after entering Nine Carols Star, he no longer had to worry about the prying eyes of Nether Demon and Nether Buddha.

“How do you feel?” Fairy Tianchu asked with concern.

Li Miaohan, Moyin, and the others were shocked. They had not expected this to happen.

They immediately realized that the battle between Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen hadn’t been easy. Not only had Yan Wushen severely wounded, but Zhang Ruochen himself had also taken serious damage.

Zhang Ruochen spat out blood a few more times. His face turned pale, and his aura weakened.

Many visible cracks appeared on the surface of his body. His entire body was on the verge of shattering.

If one could see the inside of his body, they would find that his internal organs were almost completely shattered.

More importantly, even his Saint Soul had suffered serious damage.

Zhang Ruochen’s heart sank when he noticed his own condition. His injuries were more serious than he had expected. It would not be easy for him to recover fully.

Fairy Tianchu brought Zhang Ruochen to the place where she practiced her self-cultivation.

“You can recuperate here. No one will disturb you,” Fairy Tianchu said.

“Thank—” Zhang Ruochen had wanted to thank her again, but as soon as he recalled what Fairy Tianchu had said earlier, he swallowed his words.

After all, “Thank you” was for politeness.

Being polite to Fairy Tianchu meant that deep down in Zhang Ruochen’s heart, he felt there was a distance between them.

In order not to disrupt Zhang Ruochen’s recovery, Fairy Tianchu retreated immediately.

Of course, she didn’t go far. Instead, she stood guard outside the cave and personally protected Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen collected his thoughts. He took out a Heaven Grade Sacred Pill and swallowed it. At the same time, he drank a large amount of Spring of Life and started the healing process.

The situation in Kunlun was constantly changing. Something big could happen at any time. He had to heal his injuries as soon as possible and recover to his prime condition. Only then could he deal with everything.

Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen held the divine sun formed by Sacred Seven-star Lingzhi’s Sun Leaf in his body. It constantly released strange essence and Qi to nourish his body. It restored the vitality of every inch of his flesh and blood. Under its effect, his recovery ability was far from what ordinary people could compare to.

When Zhang Ruochen went into seclusion to recuperate, the outside world was in an uproar. The news of the Battle of Luoshui quickly spread to myriad Macroworlds and Microworlds of Celestial Court and Infernal Court.

The result of this battle was too significant. After all, for hundreds of years, Yan Wushen had had always been regarded as being invincible at the realm below Supreme Sainthood. No one had expected that he would get defeated by Zhang Ruochen.

“Impossible. Zhang Ruochen has only practiced cultivation for a short period. Even if he is the Scion of Time and Space, there’s no way he can defeat Yan Wushen. This must be a rumor.”

Upon hearing this news, many cultivators in Infernal Court did not buy it.

Yan Wushen had remained a legend for his invincibility for long years. He had subdued all cultivators—from both Celestial Court and Infernal Court—of first-tier under Supreme Sainthood. They could barely gasp an air when facing him.

On Celestial Court side, the forces and individuals who had no grudges against Zhang Ruochen were, of course, happy to see such an outcome.

However, those who held resentment against Zhang Ruochen, especially those supporting Heavenly Realm, appeared very depressed. In their eyes, the stronger Zhang Ruochen was, the greater the threat he posed to them.

“First, he defeated Son of Darkness, then Supreme Saint Jinhui, and now, he has even defeated Yan Wushen. Zhang Ruochen has grown strong and become unstoppable now. It’s unlikely to turn the tide. In other words, his era of invincibility has arrived. I don’t know if anyone can replace him.”

Many felt great emotion as they recalled Zhang Ruochen’s recent achievements.
