God Emperor - Chapter 921

Chapter 921

The legendary lion, or Suanni, was from a beast from the ancient times . According to legends, it once carried 100,000 mountains and filled the four seas . Even now, the vast surface of the western sea had a large piece of land . It was known as the Western Ni State .

Thousands of years had passed and the Suanni race had gone extinct . No one would’ve expected the Second Prince to find a Suanni and turn its beast soul into his own battle soul .

This way, the Second Prince had taken part of the Suanni’s power and also its Fate Qi . Even if he was in the sixth level of the Half-Saint Realm, he could easily kill a seventh level Half-Saint .

Boom .

As the Second Prince stepped down, the Suanni’s shadow behind him extended a large foot . It passed through the blood cloud and struck Zhang Ruochen’s head .

It was a simple step, but it contained tumultuous saintly power . With Zhang Ruochen’s current cultivation, there was no way he could stop it . Zhang Ruochen’s feet stepped on a Luan and phoenix . He transformed into a streak and dodged to the side .

Then he flew with an even faster speed . Controlling the Abyss Ancient Sword, he struck the Second Prince’s leg .

Compared to the Second Prince, Zhang Ruochen’s biggest advantage was in speed . Thus, he had to get as close as possible to the Second Prince to get the upper hand . If he was further away, he would lose without doubt .

Zhang Ruochen’s physique and Way of Sword were all top-tier, but the Second Prince was no weakling either .

The Second Prince’s physique might not be comparable to the Five Elements Chaotic Body, but he was far above a regular Saint Body . His Way of Sword hadn’t reached the Human Sword state, but he was still at the top of the Heart Integrated into Sword state . He couldn’t control time or space, but he had the Suanni’s battle spirit . He could wipe out all the prides of his generation .

Zhang Ruochen was in the fourth realm of the Martial Way and had reached the Peak Realm four times . He had four more minor realms than other Monks .

However, cultivation of the Saintly Way was in the higher level and had far surpassed the Martial Way .

After reaching the Half-Saint Realm, the compound of four minor realms wasn’t that much . It was as most the four steps from the middle of the second level to the later portion, then to the pinnacle and then beginning of the third level .

Thus, the distance of four realms between Zhang Ruochen and the Second Prince wasn’t that easy to make up for .

The Second Prince continuously struck with palm prints, exploding with world-tossing power . Various huge claw prints appeared in the air . It was like patches of bloody clouds were flying in all directions .

Zhang Ruochen grasped his long sword and traveled between the powerful forces sent by the Second Prince . He performed beautiful sword trick after trick, dissolving the Second Prince’s bursts of power .

The Second Prince was indeed powerful, but his control over his power wasn’t that precise . Around 30 percent of his power was wasted .

This didn’t mean that the Second Prince had bad control over his power . After all, only a Saint could perfectly utilize 100 percent of their power . Among Half-Saints, being able to perfectly use 70 percent was already very advanced .

However, compared to Zhang Ruochen, he was much weaker .

Zhang Ruochen was different . After battling in swordsmanship with Ling Feiyu, he began working on controlling his power . He had to make sure each bit of power was used to its max .

Despite not being able to control 100 percent of his power perfectly, he was now very close to that point .

Looking up at them, Zhang Ruochen seemed very comfortable while facing the Second Prince’s attacks . Each of his attacks was graceful . It was like a young sword saint fighting an ancient beast .

In reality, he wasn’t that relaxed when faced with the Second Prince’s violent attacks . The smallest mistake would end him .

The two fought for an hour . The mountain under them had long become devastated . Some places had forest fires, causing the beasts to run in fright . Sword Qi had torn through other places, leaving smooth gouges behind .

The Second Prince had revealed some flaws, but his cultivation was still too strong . Zhang Ruochen had no chance to break through . Even now, Zhang Ruochen had still not discovered an opening for him to deal a fatal blow .

“Zhang Ruochen’s ability is so strong . ” Pu Yuelin was extremely shocked . After all, that Vampire had easily killed King Lixian . “He’s already fought the Vampire for an hour and he still isn’t at a disadvantage . ”

Zhang Ruochen was so young . How could he be stronger than King Lixian?

“No wonder he dared to attack the Ziyong Pass,” Zhao Yue said . “He’s probably comparable to the Nine Heirs . ”

As the battle dragged on, the Second Prince grew more and more hot-headed . He’d completely lost patience .

“The heaven and earth spins . The nine words kill the gods . ” The Second Prince opened his arms and drew a huge circle . An ancient rune of the word “mountain” appeared in the center of the circle .

It was only a word, but it felt like a real mountain that contained burning fiery Qi . The words people created in the ancient times were all pictographic characters .

“Mountain” was a word created according to the shape of a mountain . A word like this contained very strong harmony with the ways . It pointed to the origin of all life .

If someone could combine the word “mountain” with the rules of the world, then lifting this word was like lifting the mountains of the world .

The Nine Word God-killing Technique was a saint spell from the Suanni race . It only contained nine words, but each word contained profound knowledge . If one could cultivate any word to the extreme, they could kill a saint or god .

The Second Prince had cultivated for many years, but he’d only refined the words “mountain” and “fire” to the materialization state .

Before, he’d used the word “mountain” to force an eighth level Half-Saint Vampire countless miles back . Now, his cultivation had improved a bit . The power from the Nine Word God-killing Technique was naturally stronger as well .

“Zhang Ruochen, you can brag your entire life for forcing me to use the Nine Word God-killing Technique . However, our battle will end now . Your end is already destined . ”

The Second Prince crossed his hands . The “mountain” in his hands quivered . One could imagine that if he cultivated the Nine Word God-killing Technique to the peak, he could completely disturb some of the rules of the world .

The “mountain” flew toward Zhang Ruochen . It was only a word, but it created the apparitions of thousands of mountains . No matter how Zhang Ruochen dodged, he would still be crushed .

Right now, Zhang Ruochen finally felt the might of death . It was a true and genuine feeling .

If he used the Destruction of the Thousand-patterns, he could have a chance to escape from this fatal blow . However, if he did use it, he would use up all his Holy Qi . This meant that he would later lose to the Second Prince .

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t satisfied with the defeat . He was even less willing to lose to a Vampire .

The stronger he is, the more easily he’ll reveal a flaw .

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes gleamed . He stood in place and instead of weakening, his aura grew stronger . It was the temperament of someone who thought he was the one and only in the world .

In the temple, Kong Lanyou’s pretty eyes were trained on Zhang Ruochen . She couldn’t help but stand up . At the moment, Zhang Ruochen was too similar to Zhang Ruochen from 800 years ago .

Right now, she kind of believed that her cousin hadn’t truly died .

Zhang Ruochen’s body melded with the Abyss Ancient Sword, entering the true state of the Human Sword .

Whoosh!

Immediately after, the human and sword transformed into a beam of light that rushed into the air . It darted toward the thousands of mountain apparitions .

His aura knew no end . He wouldn’t retreat unless he killed his enemy .

Seeing this, the Second Prince smiled coldly . “You’re looking for death . ”

Even an eighth level Half-Saint would immediately dodge this attack and use all sorts of defense mechanisms to stop it .

The Second Prince didn’t actually want to kill Zhang Ruochen with this saint spell . He just wanted to force Zhang Ruochen to use the Destruction of the Thousand-patterns . As long as he did, he would completely use the ability to fight . By then, he would be powerless before the Second Prince .

However, Zhang Ruochen didn’t use the Destruction of the Thousand-patterns . If he wanted to charge headfirst, wasn’t this suicide?

The Second Prince’s smile quickly froze because he didn’t see the scene he’d imagined . Instead, Zhang Ruochen’s sword crashed against the “mountain” rune . He tore apart the thousands of mountain apparitions .

In addition, dozens of tears appeared in the space as well .

He’s combined the Way of Sword with the power of space? The Second Prince’s eyes widened in disbelief .

Yes, Zhang Ruochen had indeed added the power of space into his swordsmanship . While attacking the space, he’d also broken through the Nine Word God-killing Technique .

This was actually Zhang Ruochen’s first time doing so . He didn’t have much confidence in it . Faced with the pressure from the Second Prince, he had no other choice .

Of course, the power of space wasn’t that easy to control . If he wasn’t careful, even he could be devoured . If he hadn’t reached a shocking level of control of his power and swordsmanship after training with Ling Feiyu, he wouldn’t dare to do this .

Zhang Ruochen became strong with strong opponents . Only going against these powerful enemies could he unleash unprecedented potential and break through his own limits .

After breaking through the thousands of mountain apparitions, Zhang Ruochen was already atop the Second Prince’s head . He lifted the sword with both hands . Activating the Destruction of the Thousand-patterns, he struck down with all his might .

This moment was the best chance .

Whoosh!

Black sword light connected the heaven and earth . It flew out as if it was about to cut the world in half .
