BOOM!
The light seal formed by the Eight Trigrams Disk finally shattered and dissolved into threads of Genuine Qi light haze .
Countless ice swords converged, their sword Qi alone was equivalent to 10,000 streaks of light and swallowed Red Wish Emissary whole .
Her expression shifted as she stood in the sword radiance . Her blood and Genuine Qi circulated at their fastest as she awakened an ancient Saintly power in her body .
Her arm became as translucent as a piece of white jade, her skin emanating specks of light that formed a powerful Saint Power .
She lifted her right arm and struck with her palm .
Boom!
White holy light spilled from her palm, resembling a whirlwind that was capable of destroying the world .
All the ice swords shattered, becoming pieces of broken ice .
Though Red Wish Emissary wasn't able to practice her body into becoming a Saintly Being, the Holy Blood nevertheless dormant in her body . Her right arm was completely Saintified, allowing her to utilize a thread of Saint Power .
The ice swords had barely shattered when Zhang Ruochen charged at Red Wish Emissary, striking her with his palm .
"Elephant Galloping . "
Red Wish Emissary took two steps back and froze the river water beneath her feet to steady her steps . She once again cast out her palm, emitting Saint Power to meet her opponent's attack .
The two palm power collided, splitting the surface of the water and causing two waves to spill the left and right .
A quiet noise came from Red Wish Emissary's mouth . Her face became deathly pale . The strength of Zhang Ruochen's palm power had continually forced her backward . She had to block the attack with great difficulty .
Not only didn't his palm power weaken, it even became stronger .
BOOM!
Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and sent a bolt of secret energy flying from his palm . It struck Red Wish Emissary, sending her flying backward .
"Ah!"
Her five internal organs took heavy damage from the attack and caused her to cough a mouthful of blood .
"If my eyesight served me well, Red Wish Emissary had used all her Saint Power earlier . How could Zhang Ruochen still injure her?" On board the warship of the Duanmu family, a white-haired elder narrowed his eyes . A thoughtful expression crossed his face .
That elder was called Hua Shenyi . On the surface, he was a guest of the Duanmu family, but in reality, he was one of the Elders of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect .
To think that Red Wish Emissary would possess a Saint hand! Even if she wasn't a Saintly Being, she could still be considered a Half-Saint .
Yet Zhang Ruochen was even stronger despite not being a Saintly Being . This greatly shocked the heresy Elder .
Next to Hua Shenyi was Qin Ya . She stared at the faraway Zhang Ruochen with a trace of confusion in her eyes . "Could Zhang Ruochen be some sort of a Saintly Being?"
"Impossible . "
"Only the Posteritys of Saints have diluted Holy Blood running in them, thus giving them the opportunity to cultivate to be Saintly Beings . There isn't even a Half-Saint in the family tree of the Yunwu Commandery . How could their Posteritys have a Saintly Being?"
Hua Shenyi furrowed his brow and said, "No matter how you look at it, Zhang Ruochen is a talent . His potential isn't fully developed yet but you can already tell he'll be a great talent . If we can't recruit him, then we must eliminate him . "
Qin Ya replied, "There's no rush . Let Saintness deal with it!"
Hua Shenyi nodded .
The battle continued over on the water, with one party visibly crushing the other .
Zhang Ruochen had completely familiarized himself the power of the Heaven Realm with the passing of time . The more he battled, the stronger he became . He managed to force Red Wish Emissary to continuously retreat .
Though she wasn't as strong as he was, her bodily movement was exquisite . He wasn't able to completely pin her down at the moment .
"Time for this to end!"
"Nine-folds of Elephant Power . "
Zhang Ruochen struck out nine times consecutively, each handprint condensing a giant illusion of a colossal elephant . The nine-headed elephant became one body and followed his palm to strike with him .
His power, nine times its usual, spilled out in a flash .
Facing the approaching attack, Red Wish Emissary could only feel piercing pain everywhere on her body . She could tell she would definitely be torn apart if the strike hit her .
"Zhang Ruochen, you really don't know how to act like a gentleman, do you? Are you trying to kill me?"
A trace of coldness flickered in Red Wish Emissary's eyes . A speck of red light floated to the surface of her glabella, like a bright and beautiful bindi .
She prepared to use the Holy Weapon in her Qi Sea .
That was the only way she could save her life .
Usually, only Half-Saint families and upper three level Suzerains owned Holy Weapons . Owning a Holy Weapon could be considered the equivalent of owning a legion of earth-wrecking weapons . The amount of power such weapons had was beyond the imagination of ordinary warriors .
It was also the only weapon that could be taken into the Qi Sea .
Given her current realm, she would have to burn large amounts of fresh blood to be able to use the power of the Holy Weapon .
Even just using the weapon once would heavily damage her core . She would be reduced into a weak state for a long time before she would recover .
Just as Red Wish Emissary was about to use the Holy Weapon in her Qi Sea, a bundle of orange light rushed up to her left . Enveloped in that bundle of light was a veiled woman .
She landed in front of Red Wish Emissary and said, "Put away the Holy Weapon and leave Zhang Ruochen to me . "
It was one of the Seven Kills Emissaries, Orange Star Emissary .
Orange Star Emissary hovered in the air, her long hair spilling over like a waterfall . She fell into the water . A layer of light enveloped her, leaving only a blurry shadow behind . The image gave off a sense of mystery and beauty .
They were both Seven Kills Emissaries but Orange Star Emissary had stronger martial cultivation and was in the Advanced Stage of the Heaven Realm .
She struck with her palm .
Swoosh!
Zhang Ruochen felt like his nine-fold strike had hit a metal mountain . Not only did it not move the other party, it shook and numbed his arm .
Orange Star Emissary staggered but steadied herself in the end . She turned her fingers and formed a fist, which she drove toward her opponent's palm .
Like a falling star, more than 5,000 kilograms of power exploded from her fist in an instant .
"Not good . "
Zhang Ruochen immediately executed his bodily movement, pushing his feet out against the surface of the water . He moved his body like the wind and urgently retreated .
Once a warrior reached the Heaven Realm, his increase in speed would slow .
However, Zhang Ruochen had already achieved the speed velocity when he was still in the Earth Realm . When he broke into the Heaven Realm, that gave him a great advantage in terms of speed .
When it came to speed, Zhang Ruochen was faster than even Orange Star Emissary .
The gust of fist strike of Orange Star Emissary landed before Zhang Ruochen but was blocked by the Celestial Bodyshield formed out of Blue Genuine Qi .
Zhang Ruochen steadied his footing and stared at Orange Star Emissary and Red Wish Emissary before him . "Does Orange Star Emissary also wish to battle me?"
"If I strike, will you have a chance to win?" Orange Star Emissary replied in a booming voice, giving her the impression of being unfathomable .
"How will we know if we don't try?"
"Since that's the case, I'll fulfill your wish . Even if you die by my hands, it's enough to propel you to fame throughout the Eastern Region . "
The tip of her fingers formed threads of fire that converged into a fireball on her palm . Thin threads of lightning flashed through the fireball, making crackling sounds .
The fireball appeared only the size of a fist yet contained a great power . The heat that it radiated caused the water around the city to boil and bubble .
"Will the Seven Kills Emissaries of the Black Market Excellence Hall be joining hands to defeat an internal student of the Martial Market School? If words get out, I fear it'll impact the reputation of the Seven Kills Emissaries . "
In the distance, Lei Jing and Chen Ying flew up . They landed beside Zhang Ruochen in a flash, flanking him .
Both Lei Jing and Chen Ying were warriors of the Fish-dragon Realm . They were famous in the Omen Ridge and were figures of utmost importance .
The rest of the Seven Kills Emissaries rushed out almost simultaneously, circulating their Genuine Qi in preparation for fighting a strong enemy . They were worried that Lei Jing and Chen Ying would suddenly strike and kill Di Yi .
The Seven Kills Emissary stood in seven different places in seemingly casual positions but they had already formed an array which connected their powers .
Lei Jing laughed . "Are you attacking? That's good . I have long wanted to see just how powerful the Seven Kills Emissaries are . "
"I'm afraid you won't last," Purple Wind Emissary said coldly .
Purple Wind Emissary was the oldest and most powerful one among them . He naturally had incomparable strength .
Each of the Seven Kills Emissary, whose name rings across the land, was a dragon and phoenix among mortals . Naturally, they wouldn't think much of a warrior of the Omen Ridge .
In their eyes, even warriors of the Fish-dragon Realm were just slightly more powerful ants .
Lei Jing stared at Purple Wind Emissary, feeling his strength grow . "Since that's the case, there's no way I wouldn't meet your challenge . "
Streaks of light emerged from his body in a flash and converged into a 30-meter-tall illusory image of a cow .
SWISH!
The entire water city turned blood red . Lei Jing's body exploded with an immeasurable power that flew into the sky, parting the clouds .
"This person is very powerful . He's more than 10 times stronger than the chief chairman of the Poisonous Spider Club . It's no wonder that the Martial Market Bank would completely suppress the Black Market in the Omen Ridge, causing them to unable to rise . "
"Purple Torch Spear . "
Purple Wind Emissary's gaze turned serious as he expelled any earlier thoughts of underestimating his opponent .
The long spear on his back flew up and landed on his hand .
He raised his arm and pointed the spear at the sky . A streak of Genuine Qi flew up and turned into a purple light column .
Countless bolts of lightning formed and gathered at the tip of his spear .
He rushed forward and struck Lei Jing with his spear .
At the same time, Lei Jing also threw a punch at Purple Wind Emissary with the power of the Blood Magic Shadow .
Boom!
The strike landed on Purple Wind Emissary, knocking him backward .
But he wasn't hurt . The light on the tip of his spear glowed even brighter and his war intent boiled .
Lei Jing was stunned . "Amazing! No wonder you're the head of the Seven Kills Emissaries . You're so powerful even though you're not yet 50 . "
"Your power is what truly surprised me . "
Purple Wind Emissary had used all his strength in the attack earlier, yet was still forced back by Lei Jing . If their battle continued, it was difficult to say who would win .
"You may be unaware of this, but Master Lei in front of you was once the conqueror of the Saint Academy . To be forced back in one strike by him isn't a shameful thing . "
Di Yi walked up, appearing very relaxed . He held out a hand to block Purple Wind Emissary who was getting ready to attack .
"Today, it's a battle between Zhang Ruochen and me . All of you stand down . "
The Seven Kills Emissaries immediately retreated .
There was a thread of blood at the corner of Red Wish Emissary's mouth . She stared at Zhang Ruochen that stood in front of her, looking unsatisfied . "I still have unique techniques up my sleeve . If we battle again, I might not necessarily lose . "
Zhang Ruochen smiled lightly and didn't argue .
Who didn't have a unique technique of their own?
Lei Jing frowned at Zhang Ruochen . "Is this fight inevitable?"
"I promised a friend that I'd avenge her . So this fight is inevitable . " Zhang Ruochen said, his voice powerful and resonating . His gaze became even sharper .
"Di Yi isn't an ordinary person . He's one of the most talented warriors in the last century of the Black Market Excellence Hall . You mustn't let down your guard," Lei Jing said .
If he hadn't seen the battle between Zhang Ruochen and Red Wish Emissary, he would never have agreed for him to duel Di Yi .
Though he still didn't think that Zhang Ruochen could challenge Di Yi, he didn't think their strengths were too far apart . Even if Zhang Ruochen couldn't win, he was at least capable of preserving his life .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
