Chapter 912
“Brother Zhang, if you are willing to join our forces to defeat the Immortal Vampires, ten thousand lives of the Shi Family will be saved . ”
Shi Ren was touched and happy to hear that Zhang Ruochen was willing to fight against the Immortal Vampires alongside the Shi Family .
A friend in need is a friend indeed .
While Zhang Ruochen was not as strong as a Level Seven Half-Saint, he could kill the immortal vampires that the Level Seven Half-Saint missed out on .
For instance, a Level One Half-Saint from the Immortal Vampires knew he would never defeat a Level Seven Half-Saint from the human race . Thus, he would escape the battle using a royal decree .
Once having escaped, the damage he could cause to the surrounding cities would be beyond imaginable . Thousands of mortals could die .
However, things would end up differently for Zhang Ruochen .
Not only did he have the Shooting Star Invisible Cloak, which allowed him to launch a sneak attack on the Immortal Vampires, but he could also stop the Immortal Vampires from escaping with his Spatial Power .
On the battlefield, Zhang Ruochen would be more useful as compared to a Level Seven Half-Saint, or even a Level Nine .
Shi Ren frowned for a moment, then whispered to Zhang Ruochen, “Brother Zhang, I am extremely grateful that you have volunteered to help . But you must be extra cautious . Other than the monks from the Shi Family, the troops from the Elephant King will be there as well . ”
“The Kings from the Ministry might play dirty to get their hands on you, the moment they learn about your presence at the Golden Sparrow City . ”
“I will disguise myself as someone else during the battle, and my main target will be the half saints of the Immortal Vampires . Revealing myself will be the last resort,” said Zhang Ruochen .
“Haha! With the help of Brother Zhang, the half-saints of the Immortal Vampires in Golden Sparrow City will be having a hard time,” Shi Ren guffawed with delight .
The Immortal Vampires fed on blood for sustenance . Human was equivalent to a pig, dog, cattle, sheep or other livestock to them, and the life purpose of an Immortal Vampire was to annihilate humanity .
Zhang Ruochen had never liked the Immortal Vampires . More people will be able to live just by killing one Immortal Vampire .
That very night, soldiers of the Shi Family gathered at the tent outside the Shi Family’s mansion .
Zhang Ruochen was on the rooftop of a building near the pond, overlooking the military tent .
There were about a hundred thousand soldiers from the Way of Sword . Each of them was an elite of the Shi Family’s private army .
Above the tent, a rainbow streaked across the sky, making the clouds glow against the twilight .
From afar, it looked like a cascading rainbow fall, absolutely breathtaking .
“Indeed, this is an ancient race that has existed since the medieval times . The private army the family owns is sufficient to take over the thirty-six counties in the Yuan Mansion . There may be more inherent yet hidden forces . ”
Zhang Ruochen shifted his sight to the other smaller tent . The region it occupied was smaller compared to the military one .
The smaller tent contained only rune masters, who were the immediate family members of the Shi Family .
After all, rune mastery was the skillset the Shi Family was known for .
In Kunlun’s field, monks of each sect of every Way were required to learn about runes . But the rune masters of the Shi Family were among the top five in rune mastery .
Zhang Ruochen used his Spiritual Power to spy on the tent the rune masters were in .
The moment his spirit was near the tent, the other rune masters with strong Spiritual Power had already noticed his presence .
To avoid misunderstanding, he retracted his Spiritual Power .
“Seems like the Ancient Race of Prison Guardian is serious about the war against the Immortal Vampires . ”
Rather than checking on the Shi Family, Zhang Ruochen decided to continue practicing the sixth move of the Emperor Ming Nine-sky Scripture on the rooftop .
When his cultivation was stronger, the success rate of him advancing to Level Two Half-Saint after consuming the Divine Origin Pill would be higher .
The next day, the Shi, Wang and Shen Family departed from the Pluto Sword Tomb along with their neatly aligned troops; some were riding on the war beasts, and the others were on the battleships provided by the Ministry . The scale of the formation was incredible .
Zhang Ruochen carried the Taotian Sword on his back . He was riding on Elephant-swallowing Rabbit and following at the back of the troops . Off he went to the Golden Sparrow City .
The fact that Xiang Zhengfeng escaped the Underground Spirit Prison had confirmed his identity as the spy of the Immortal Vampires .
His escape had also proven Zhang Ruochen’s innocence . Therefore, Ling Feiyu returned the Taotian Sword to him .
“Master Zhang, I have refined all of the Half-Saint Light you gave me, and now I am close to achieving Level Five Half-Saint . Could you give me more?”
Elephant-swallowing Rabbit licked its lips while running at the fastest speed it could .
For the past few days, Elephant-swallowing Rabbit and Monster Ape had been cultivating in the Scroll World with the Half-Saint Light Zhang Ruochen obtained from the half-saints he defeated .
Needless to say, their strengths had improved by leaps and bounds .
“I have given you all of my collection . Nothing’s left now . Take this war as the opportunity . The more Immortal Vampires of Half-Saint level you kill, the more Half-Saint Light you get to collect,” Zhang Ruochen replied .
Refining the Half-Saint Light was the catalyst to becoming a half-saint . It was similar to taking the cultivation of others and converting to your own .
However, there could be adverse effects when a human monk tried to refine the Half-Saint Light .
Thus, Zhang Ruochen chose to refine the Divine Blood, which was also beneficial to advancing his cultivation level but helped to strengthen his body . Though the process could take longer than refining the Half-Saint Light, it was more stable and had less side effects .
On the other hand, refining the Half-Saint Light had no adverse effect on the beasts .
That was why many Saints who practiced the Evil Way loved hunting the Half-Saints and fed their Half-Saint Light to their war beasts and beast pets .
Zhang Ruochen had the same intention as the Saints by feeding the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit and Monster Ape with the Half-Saint Light .
After all, extra effort would be needed to fight against two beasts .
The increase in strength of the two beasts would elevate Zhang Ruochen’s overall combat power .
As the troops got closer to the Golden Sparrow City, Zhang Ruochen could see the city walls from the hillside .
The Shi Family’s hundred thousand troops surrounded the city on their war beasts within a short while, with their war flags fluttering in the wind .
Two stacks of black metal in the shape of a battleship were hovering above the troops, casting two giant shadows onto the ground .
The two battleships of Half-Saint level were restricted weapons, which would only be used during desperate times .
In order to kill all of the Immortal Vampires at once, the Ministry had employed seven battleships of Half-Saint level, and two of them were under the command of the Shi Family .
