Chapter 2175: The Three Brothers Crossing the Sea

Qing Sixue stepped forward and bowed slightly. She said with a smile, “Thank you, Brother Ruochen. For taking care of my Brother Chunan.”

Her appearance was mighty and masculine, but her voice was surprisingly gentle and sweet.

“I didn’t take much care of Chunan. On the other hand, He helped me a lot, and I should be the one thanking him,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen was showing his gratitude for Xiang Chunan who had helped him a lot in Kunlun. Chunan had accompanied him through life and death without asking for anything in return.

Xiang Chunan said with a straight face, “If you consider me as your brother, please don’t say such a thing again. I won’t be happy.”

Zhang Ruochen was struck by Chunan’s words and felt warmth in his heart. He was blessed by the gods to have such a brother.

“In the battle outside the Imperial City, you killed seven top elites of the Infernal Court by yourself. Brother, I really can’t imagine how powerful you are,” Feng Yan said.

Compared to when he was in the Northern Region, Zhang Ruochen was undoubtedly more unfathomable now. Even though Feng Yan’s cultivation and strength had greatly improved, yet he could not see through it at all.

Zhang Ruochen said, “My current state was pushed by the situation. Too many people wanted to take my life. If I wanted to live longer, I would have to make myself stronger.”

Anyone could hear that there was a lot of helplessness in Zhang Ruochen’s words.

Others only saw Zhang Ruochen’s bright side, but they did not know how much effort and sweat he had put in to have his current strength. At some point, he had almost paid with his life.

“Brother, let’s cross the sea first. Then we’ll find a place for a gathering and have a few drinks,” Feng Yan suggested.

Xiang Chunan immediately agreed. “Yes, we must have it. I haven’t had a good drink in a long time. This time, we must not stop until one gets drunk.”

“Alright, count me in,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to disappoint his two sworn brothers no matter what.

Without delay, the four of them walked towards the beach.

Wherever they passed, the cultivators would avoid them. No one dared to offend them.

There were many Boats of Truth docked by the beach and it was more than enough for them to cross the sea.

As Zhang Ruochen expected, Qing Sixue also wanted to cross the sea.

Xiang Chunan’s master was very mysterious. He could learn the Path of Truth outside the Celestial Domain of Truth. Since Xiang Chunan had such high attainments in the Path of Truth, his junior sister should not be worse. She might even be stronger.

As they moved in a flash, the four of them each boarded a Boat of Truth. They rode the wind and cleaved the waves as they began to cross the sea.

After the four of them set off, streams of light gathered from all directions. They landed on the shore and turned into figures.

If Zhang Ruochen was still on the shore, he would definitely find many familiar faces.

Maiden of a Thousand Stars landed on a skerry. She fixed her gaze on Zhang Ruochen and said, “Zhang Ruochen has finally come to cross the Sea of Truth again. Perhaps he already has the confidence to cross the tenth region of the sea.”

The Maiden of a Thousand Stars had made up for the flaw in her state of mind during the trip to True Dragon Island. She had rushed straight to the Celestial Domain of Truth since then. Now that she had crossed the eighth region of the sea, she had a lot of time to cultivate in the Fane of Truth.

A beautiful woman standing beside the Maiden of a Thousand Stars. Her name was Qie Huairou. She was a Divine Scion and a good friend of the Maiden of a Thousand Stars in the Fane of Truth.

Qie Huairou smiled tenderly and said, “Everyone wants to cross the tenth region of the Sea of Truth. However, no Saint King has succeeded since the establishment of the Celestial Court. Even the ten Divine Scions that the Fane of Truth has tried so hard to nurture and only three of them have crossed the ninth region of the sea.”

“Zhang Ruochen may be strong, but he hasn’t even condensed the Realm-frame of Truth. It’s still a question whether he can cross the ninth region, let alone the tenth region.”

As a Divine Scion of the Fane of Truth, she knew very well that the Realm-frame of Truth was very important to cross more regions of the sea.

Without the secret teachings of the Fane of Truth, Qie Huairou didn’t believe that Zhang Ruochen could have a way to condense the Realm-frame of Truth.

Not to mention the top-notch ‘Boundless Universe’ form, even the worst ‘Heavens Up Above’ form was by no means easy to condense.

Even the Divine Scions of the Fane of Truth could only condense the ‘Heavens Up Above’ form. Only a handful could condense the ‘Lands Down Below’ form.

Not many people have succeeded in condensing the ‘Shoreless Star Ocean’ form, except for the ten Divine Scions.

As for the ‘Boundless Universe’ form, it only existed in legends. Not even all the gods of the Fane of Truth possessed it.

“You underestimate Zhang Ruochen. To him, anything could happen. His goal of crossing the Sea of Truth at this time is definitely not limited to the ninth region of the sea,” the Maiden of a Thousand Stars said with a smile. She seemed to be full of confidence in Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen was unique in that no ordinary person could compare to him in her eyes.

Qie Huairou shook her head and said, “It’s not that I underestimate Zhang Ruochen. It’s that you are blinded by him, Chenjing. I really don’t know how you can be sure that Zhang Ruochen could cross the tenth region of the sea. Do you think that his attainments in the Path of Truth are higher than those of the ten Divine Scions?”

Qie Huairou didn’t think that Zhang Ruochen could cross the tenth region of the sea no matter what the Maiden of a Thousand Stars said. It was simply impossible.

“That’s because you don’t know much about Zhang Ruochen. Look, it won’t take long before there will be results.” Maiden of a Thousand Stars insisted.

Qie Huairou looked at Maiden of a Thousand Stars with surprise and said, “Chenjing, you’re so protective of him. Don’t tell me you have a thing for Zhang Ruochen?”

Maiden of a Thousand Stars rolled her eyes at Qie Huairou after hearing that, but she didn’t say anything. She just fixed her gaze at Zhang Ruochen with a look of expectation that appeared faintly in her eyes.

“Brother Nie, which region do you think Zhang Ruochen can cross?” Dongfang Qingyu asked with a smile.

Nie Xiangzi thought for a while and said, “Maybe he can surpass all of us.”

“I don’t think so. Crossing the Sea of Truth is not just about strength. The key is one’s attainments in the Path of Truth and it also increases one’s attack power by nine fold. There’s a big difference between whether Zhang Ruochen can cross the ninth region using the Realm-frame of Truth or not. The chances are very low,” Dongfang Qingyu said.

Nie Xiangzi said, “Then let’s wait and see.”

Although he didn’t have much contact with Zhang Ruochen, he was a good judge of character and trusted his intuition.

Dongfang Qingyu didn’t say anything else. He gently fanned the jade folding fan in his hand, with wisps of brilliance flashing in his eyes.

It would be delightful to see Zhang Ruochen being frustrated in the Sea of Truth.’ Dongfang Qingyu thought.

In the other direction, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers descended from the sky as it was showered with flowers.

If it were any other time, the appearance of the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers would have caught the attention of countless cultivators. But now, they focused their attention on Zhang Ruochen.

The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers had been cultivating in the Mandala Goddess’s dojo recently. She had learned a lot from comprehending and refining the Heart of the Divine Tree.

Those below the Supreme Saint are invincible. After parting in the Northern Region, what kind of opportunity did Zhang Ruochen get in such a short time? Is it because of the trunks of the Divine Sky-connecting Tree?’ The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers guessed.

Even the cultivators who were personally instructed by the gods couldn’t cultivate as fast as Zhang Ruochen and anyone would be curious about the reason.

After hearing the discussions of many cultivators around, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers whispered, “If it was the tenth region of the sea, maybe Zhang Ruochen can do it.”

As time passed, more and more cultivators gathered in the Sea of Truth, and soon there were more than 10,000 of them. Among them, there were not only saints and Saint Kings but also Supreme Saints.

Zhang Ruochen was the center of everyone’s attention even though there were four of them crossing the sea at the same time.

This was Qing Sixue’s first time crossing the Sea of Truth and she needed to cross the sea region by region.

Zhang Ruochen, Feng Yan, and Xiang Chunan had already crossed the first six regions of the sea. The seventh region would be their starting point.

The three of them moved at the same speed and it didn’t take long for them to reach the seventh region.

“Brother, let’s see who can enter the eighth region faster,” Feng Yan said with a smile.

Feng Yan had crossed the sixth region and became a Divine Scion of the Fane of Truth before he headed to Kunlun. He no longer had to be ridiculed by his sister.

If Feng Yan could cross the seventh or eighth region this time, he would be more assertive when talking to his sister in the future.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Losers pay the bill for the next meal.”

“You two can take your time while I am crossing the region. Hahaha.” Xiang Chunan laughed.

Feng Yan said, “Chunan, it’s not right for you to play tricks like this.”

As he spoke, he rode the Boat of Truth and quickly chased after them.

In the next moment, gatekeepers gathered in front of the three.

The three gatekeepers attacked at the same time. They threw out powerful fist techniques, triggered the Precept and Saint Qi of heaven and earth, and set off violent waves.

However, the waves did not affect Zhang Ruochen and the other two. The Boat of Truth under their feet seemed to be very stable without any turbulence.

Tens of millions of Precepts appeared as the breeze blew. They interweaved behind Feng Yan and formed a tall divine shadow with powerful divine force.

Roar!

The divine shadow leaned forward and let out a terrifying roar.

Endless squalls whistled out and enveloped the majestic fist print and the gatekeepers.

“Take this!” Xiang Chunan shouted, and monstrous Demonic Qi surged out of his body.

The Demonic Qi combined with the Precepts of Fist to form hundreds of magnificent demonic mountains. They connected with each other and became one. It released the world-suppressing power.

Compared to the commotion caused by Feng Yan and Xiang Chunan, Zhang Ruochen’s attack was rather simple. He simply waved his hand and cut out a faint sword ray.

Crash

The majestic fist print was instantly cut open by the sword ray and even the gatekeepers’ body was split into two.

The gatekeepers dissipated. It turned into a ball of silver light fog and it merged into the light screen in front of Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen did not look happy. Instead, he frowned slightly and thought to himself, Why is there no Canon of Truth?’

In the past, he was able to get the Canon of Truth for each region whenever he came to cross the Sea of Truth. The numbers of it were gradually increasing.

When he crossed the sixth region of the sea, the reward for the Canon of Truth had already reached three out of ten thousand.

Not even one out of ten thousand of the Canon of Truth has been rewarded. It was really strange. He couldn’t figure out what had gone wrong.
