God Emperor - Chapter 1220

Chapter 1220: 1220

“Zhang Ruochen, the Life-Death Trial is the most terrifying trial . Many geniuses die in this trial . The thunder will soon fall again . Do you want to die?”

Saint Wanxin screamed . He flapped his blood wings at the same time, escaping into the distance .

“I’ll kill you before the lightning strikes me,” Zhang Ruochen said .

As Zhang Ruochen charged at Saint Wanxin, the trial clouds in the sky also flew over . Thick bolts of lightning twisted together and fell down with a crack .

Boom!

Kaboom!

Zhang Ruochen and Saint Wanxin were both struck by the trial thunder . Their bodies shook and they fell to the ground together .

Zhang Ruochen’s physical body was very strong . All 140 apertures on him opened, releasing bright saintly light, blocking the lightning’s strength .

Of course, Saint Wanxin’s physical body wasn’t that strong . His skin was scorched . He looked like a burnt piece of coal with black smoke rising up .

“Sword Six . ”

Zhang Ruochen activated strong sword intent and held the Abyss Ancient Sword up . He pushed it forward, stabbing it toward Saint Wanxin’s back .

“Xuanji Finger . ”

Saint Wanxin stepped down and shot into the air . He turned in the air and formed a fingerprint . Pointing forward, he crashed against the Abyss Ancient Sword .

Poof .

Saintly blood spattered from the sword tip . All of the power that Saint Wanxin had consolidated now broke apart . He was thrown back . His right arm was shattered by the Sword Qi .

“No wonder he killed Saint Qingyi in one strike . The Abyss Ancient Sword and Sword Six combined is indeed impossible to fend off . ”

Saint Wanxin knew that he wasn’t Zhang Ruochen’s opponent . Without hesitating, he activated a secret escape spell with a speed five times faster than before . With this kind of shocking speed, even a Heaven Pass Realm Saint wouldn’t be able to catch up .

“Tear it up!”

Zhang Ruochen grabbed forward and tore apart the space . A crack, hundreds of meters wide, cut off Saint Wanxin’s escape route .

They’d already rushed out of the Ancient Taiyin City and weren’t in the range of the Death God’s Light . Naturally, he could use spatial crack techniques .

Saint Wanxin forcefully changed his direction to avoid the torn space .

“You can’t escape,” Zhang Ruochen thundered .

A black beam of light flew from Saint Wanxin’s side . It cut his neck, beheading him . He didn’t die, even after losing his head .

His headless body struck with two saintly finger spells, hitting Zhang Ruochen’s chest .

Thud .

Zhang Ruochen flew backward . He hit the city wall of Ancient Taiyin City, embedding into it .

Saint Wanxin’s two spells hit Zhang Ruochen’s heart and lungs . Even with the Ten Saints Blood Armor’s protection, Zhang Ruochen still felt horrible pain . There was sweetness in his throat . Blood trickled out of his mouth .

His heart and lungs were badly hurt .

The last desperate attempt by an upper-level Saint is more than terrifying, he thought .

Kaboom .

A thicker bolt of lightning fell from the trial cloud, hitting Zhang Ruochen and Saint Wanxin .

Zhang Ruochen fended off this bolt of lightning, but two explosions sounded in his ears . He looked toward the source . In the near distance, Saint Wanxin’s body and head were both struck by lightning and turned into a mist of blood .

A skeleton and skull fell to the ground .

Yet another upper-level Saint had died .

Zhang Ruochen checked his injuries . He was badly hurt . Not daring to fight the other Immortal Vampire Saints, he focused on surviving the trial .

He sat cross-legged on the ground and took a pill . He countered the trial thunders while healing himself . The Death Knight, Yao Sheng, and Sir Yashe had all escaped outside of the trial thunder’s area . They were 300 miles away, standing on a mountain and looking at Ancient Taiyin City .

“Saint Wanxin was killed! Zhang Ruochen is truly powerful . He’s going through the trial, but he could still kill another Saint . ”

Yao Sheng felt terror in his heart . Thankfully, Zhang Ruochen hadn’t chased after him . Otherwise, even if he could resist Zhang Ruochen’s attack, he would still die from the lightning .

Sir Yashe’s expression was solemn . “Zhang Ruochen is only a Second Trial Pre-Saint and he’s already so powerful . Once he undergoes the third Pre-Saint Trial, he’ll only improve . ”

“Then let us kill him . ”

The Death Knight was embarrassed . They were only facing a Pre-Saint, but three upper-level Saints had died .

If he couldn’t kill Zhang Ruochen today, he’d become the disgrace of the Death Knights .

He grabbed the blood-red spear and poured all his Holy Qi into it . Then he applied pressure and hurled it toward Ancient Taiyin City . It was like a shooting star flying across the night sky, shining with red flames . It went straight at Zhang Ruochen, who was sitting cross-legged beneath the city walls .

Just as Zhang Ruochen was about to be stabbed, a black disc appeared before him . It was more than 100 feet wide and looked like a circular shield .

The red spear crashed against the shield . It slowed instantly and finally stopped . All the cultivators in Ancient Taiyin City let out a sigh of relief .

“There really is a formation expert who stopped the Death Knight’s full-power attack . ”

“It’s fortunate that it was blocked . If the spear’s attack had landed, half of Ancient Taiyin City would have been destroyed . ”

…

Everyone thought that a big figure from the Yin and Yang Sect had hurried over . They quickly discovered that it was a fat cat standing beneath the circular disk .

The fat cat was only a foot tall . It stood on two hind legs and pushed up the disc with two paws . Who would’ve guessed that it had stopped the Death Knight’s attack?

The black cat opened its mouth, revealing sharp teeth . “You really think I’m just a weak cat if I don’t do anything?”

The disc that it lifted actually attracted a portion of lightning from the trial cloud . Hundreds of beams of purple lightning appeared on the disc . Then the disc flew up and charged toward the Death Knight, Yao Sheng, and Saint Yashe 300 miles away .

“Is this the legendary cat that Zhang Ruochen raises?”

Saint Yashe had heard before that Zhang Ruochen had a powerful cat, so he didn’t dare underestimate Blackie . He put his forefinger and middle finger together . Strong Spiritual Power surged out of his fingertips and into a bronze plate .

The bronze plate flew in the air and crashed into the thunder disc in mid-air . Blackie and Saint Yashe were hundreds of miles apart, but they dueled with spells, trying to repress one another .

Kaboom .

The bronze plate and thunder disc crashed dozens of times in a row . The land within hundreds of meters was in chaos . Many parts of the land were scorched .

“It’s just a cat . How can it be so aggressive? It’s actually comparable to the silver-robed elder of the Immortal Pavilion . ”

“Has the Yin and Yang Sect not arrived yet?”

“The thunder cloud is getting stronger . Can Zhang Ruochen survive?”

The human cultivators in the city were all worried . They desperately wished that the big figure of the Yin and Yang Sect could hurry over and kill the Death Knight .

However, he still didn’t appear . The more they waited, the more disappointed they felt .

Seventy-two bolts of lightning had fallen from the sky . If Zhang Ruochen could survive nine more, he would have survived the third Pre-Saint Trial—the Life-Death Trial .

A female disciple of the Yin and Yang Sect clasped her hands and stopped breathing due to nerves . “I hope Zhang Ruochen can quickly pass through the Life-Death Trial . Then he can use the Fifth Town Destructive Saint Rune and kill all those remaining Immortal Saints . That would be exhilarating . ”

While Blackie was busy with Saint Yashe, the Death Knight and Yao Sheng stood 300 miles away and kept attacking Zhang Ruochen .

The Holy Carnivorous Flower rushed out of Zhang Ruochen’s body . It transformed into a 10,000-foot-long vine and blocked the Death Knight and Yao Sheng’s attack, buying time for Zhang Ruochen to survive the trial .

However, the Death Knight and Yao Sheng’s cultivations were above the flower, so it was quickly injured . The vines and leaves were all scorched .

Huang Yanchen and Qing Mo stood in the air outside the trial area . Clouds were under their feet while an ivory moon was above their heads . Under the moonlight, Huang Yanchen’s skin was more translucent than saintly jade . Her long blue hair glittered . She gave off a cold and ethereal aura .

Qing Mo pursed her lips . “Princess, let’s attack! That fat cat can’t stop three Saints at all . ”

“Let’s keep waiting . I want to see where his limit is . ”

Huang Yanchen’s gaze was as calm as water . She stared at Zhang Ruochen, sitting below the city wall . She wanted to know if he could resolve the crisis with his own power .

Below Ancient Taiyin City’s walls, the Holy Carnivorous Flower’s vine was practically disabled . It could only shrink back into Zhang Ruochen’s body .

“Zhang Ruochen… I tried my best… Now…you must rely on yourself…”

The flower’s voice was very weak . After speaking, it fell into a deep sleep .

The Life-Death Trial had 81 trial thunders . Now, Zhang Ruochen had already suffered 72 thunders . He would soon survive it all . However, if he continued sitting there cross-legged, he would definitely get killed by the Death Knight and Yao Sheng .

At this point, he could only fight .

Zhang Ruochen stood up abruptly . Locking down on the Death Knight and Yao Sheng’s location, he stepped forward . He used the Great Spatial Move to reach 100 miles away instantly .

Then he used the Great Spatial Move again .

“Zhang Ruochen is heavily injured from the trial . He must be very weak now . Go kill him,” the Death Knight ordered Yao Sheng .

Yao Sheng wanted to curse at the Death Knight . They all knew that no matter how weak Zhang Ruochen was, he still had the Fifth Town Destructive Saint Rune . Whoever charged at him first would be the first to die .

It was clear that the Death Knight dispatched him against Zhang Ruochen to use him and disable the Fifth Town Destructive Saint Rune .

Since Yao Sheng knew it was suicide, why would he do it? Ignoring the Death Knight’s order, he used a secret escape spell and actually ran away .

“Cowardly fool . ”

The Death Knight clenched his fists and let out a furious roar . He didn’t go after Yao Sheng . Instead, he charged at the incoming Zhang Ruochen .
