God Emperor

The situation was dire for humans as there were more savage beasts than estimated.

Lots of red ants crawled out from underground, and they were as large as adult human beings. They had hard shells like solid armor.

Meanwhile, Shizu Birds, Firegold Ravens, Snow Mountain Blue Eagles, Ghost Eye Vultures and other birds all flew forward, completely blocking the sight of the human monks.

There were tens of thousands of birds in the sky, and even the smallest ones were at least as large as dustpans. The largest ones were more than three hundred feet long, and they could easily level a hill with one scratch.

Beast kings were not the only great beings among the savage beasts. There were many level-six savage beasts who could easily match with human half saints.

At least half the human monks rushed out of Yingsha City. They originally wanted to slaughter a large group of savage beasts to secure a leading position, yet they were now encircled and trapped in a hard fight.

Their way of escape had been destroyed, which meant they could only fight to death until they survived the battle.

“I’ll fight you all till I die. Die! Savage beasts!” A human half saint from Central Region Saint Academy had been severely injured, so he couldn’t keep fighting anymore.

He rushed into a group of Lion Camel Beasts. He exploded his lower abdomen and went to his end with them. That part of the desert was annihilated, turned into scorched earth covered with bodies.

A while ago, his partner had been killed by a Lion Camel Beast.

He had been wanting to take revenge, and now, he had fulfilled his wish.

There were many human warriors who weren’t afraid of death. If they were antagonized, they would fight til they bled the last drop of their blood.

Chi Wansui stopped holding back. He took out his heir stamp and dashed toward Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon.

The heir stamp, originally the size of a fist, emanated an imperial golden force, and it became as large as a small city.

Inside the heir stamp was the force of the empress. It was exceptionally mighty and was able to kill saints.

The space around the heir stamp kept being shattered and turned into a realm of chaos.

“He’s finally going to use his trump card.”

The dragon bone used by Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon was also extraordinary as it could resist the attack from the heir stamp.

The space structure of Blue Dragon Void World was too fragile to withstand the strength of the heir stamp and the dragon bone.

The combat between Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and Chi Wansui was earth-shattering. It kept crushing the space, and there were tens of enormous cracks on the desert as if the ground was about to collapse.

Even the beast kings and pre-saints were shocked by such a battle.

Was it still a battle in the State of Saint?

Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and Chi Wansui were still just level-nine half saints, so they weren’t pre-saints yet. It was impossible to reckon how powerful they would be when they became pre-saints.

As for the other heir, Beigong Lan, she didn’t join the fight between Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and Chi Wansui.

She was stationed in Yingsha City. She used the heir stamp and resisted seven beast kings all by herself.

Meanwhile, the human monks who were hiding in Yingsha City also rushed out to the battlefield, led by Wan Huayu, Cai Jinglun, Shangguan Yi, Shangguan Xianyan and the others.

The powers all took out their Thousand-pattern Saint Weapons and utilized Destruction of the Thousand-patterns.

Among the savage beasts, some incredible level-six savage beasts took out the ancestral devices from their race, and they triggered power that could rival that of the Destruction of the Thousand-patterns.

Both the battle and the killing were getting much more intense.

There were deafening sounds in the originally tranquil desert. Large numbers of savage beasts and human monks collapsed at each moment.

Unfortunately, there were ten times more savage beasts than humans, and they mastered two to three times more destructive ancient devices than the humans did.

Human monks were being pushed into a more and more dangerous situation, and they might be completely annihilated.

…

In an oasis that was tens of thousands of miles away.

White Li Princess blinked her eyes. She didn’t get angry at all. Instead, she smiled and thought that Blackie was trying to pursue someone who was way out of its league.

To her, Blackie was too fat, and it had nothing to do with being handsome.

As for White Li Princess, she was exquisite like an angel. Lots of beast kings were pursuing her in the Savage Barren Territory.

White Li Princess said, “You can’t even transform your shape, and you think you’re good enough for me?”

Her voice was melodious, and each word she said was like a musical note, and each sentence she said was a tune, and it had an endless aftertaste.

“It’s not that I can’t transform my shape, I just don’t want to transform into a human shape. Cats are the most noble creatures in the world. Why would I turn into a human?” Blackie sneered.

“If you really believe that cats are the most noble race, why do you turn to a human and become a pet of his?” White Li Princess asked.

Blackie was irritated and shouted, “I’m not his pet. I’m just his partner. If you dare degrade me again, I’ll beat you back to your original form!”

White Li Princess thought of Blackie as a mere moron, so she didn’t give a damn about it.

She looked to Zhang Ruochen and said, “I’m not hostile against humans. I suggest that we don’t mess with each other. Otherwise, it’s not gonna end well.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “Actually, there’s no need for us to fight each other. If you’re willing to do me this favor, it’ll be all good.” White Li Princess knew that all three human beings were top-tier masters. It would be the best that she didn’t need to fight them.

She said, “Tell me! Let me know your deal.”

Zhang Ruochen told White Li Princess everything, and he wished that she could cooperate with him to save those human monks.

After hearing what Zhang Ruochen said, White Li Princess shook her head and said, “The goal of Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon is to become the master of Kunlun’s Field, and fighting humans is the first step it takes. Even if I go, I won’t be able to change its mind. I suggest that you go now, otherwise, I have enough reason to kill you just because of your motive.”

“If that’s the case, I’ll have to fight you,” Zhang Ruochen said.

White Li Princess smiled, and there was coldness in her smile. She said, “I’ve already given you a chance to go away, yet you’re still provoking me. Do you really think that I won’t kill you?”

White Li Princess was indeed straightforward. She knew that this fight was inevitable, so she made the first attack.

She stepped forward, and took a step which was hundreds of feet, arriving right in front of Zhang Ruochen, pointing toward him.

A blade with gleaming light flew out of her fingertip and hit toward the eyebrow of Zhang Ruochen.

Even when she was trying to kill someone, she did it elegantly.

“Catastrophe Finger.”

Zhang Ruochen was shocked that White Li Princess was skilled at the saint spell of the Taichi Sect.

Catastrophe Finger was a pinnacle finger technique. It would concentrate all the Holy Qi in one’s body and kill an enemy a thousand miles away through ten mountains. It was definitely an incredible technique.

The Ten Aperture Sword Finger Zhang Ruochen used to practice was only a basic technique under Catastrophe Finger.

White Li Princess was one of the Taigu Remains, and she was ranked seventy-eight on ‘Half-Saint Rank,’ and she was powerful enough to fight a lower-class saint.

Zhang Ruochen knew that he had to be careful. He immediately performed Luan Phoenix Deity Print Speed, and there was firing under his feet. He moved out to the right.

“Hua!”

Catastrophe Finger flew across Zhang Ruochen’s temple, and the force rushed out of the oasis and went through more than ten hills.

It only dispersed once it travelled a thousand miles away.

Even lower-class saints might not be able to resist that finger.

There was a thin bloody trace on the left temple of Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t hit by Catastrophe Finger. Instead, the force of the finger flew across Zhang Ruochen and slashed his skin.

Zhang Ruochen’s body was sturdy enough that even Hundred-pattern Saint Weapon couldn’t injure his skin, yet the force of the finger was able to slash it. The power of Catastrophe Finger was indeed terrific.

“Yi?” White Li Princess blinked with her starry eyes, looking weird. She said, “You’re fast, faster than some lower-class saints.”

Zhang Ruochen inferred from what she said, and asked, “Are you saying that you killed some lower-class saints with your Catastrophe Finger?”

White Li Princess didn’t answer his question, and she pointed forward again.

Instead of dodging it, Zhang Ruochen took out the Abyss Ancient Sword and performed Sword Five.

His body and his sword merged together and flew out like a trace of black light. It let out an unstoppable force and clashed with Catastrophe Finger performed by White Li Princess.

“Hong!”

Traces of sword Qi spread out like circular waves.

Both of them bounced back thousands of feet.

White Li Princess started to be more serious and stopped looking down at Zhang Ruochen. She said, “Though you’re still young, you have already finished Sword Five, which is incredible. Your cultivation on sword master is already in the same class with that of the best sword master talent Xue Wuye.”

White Li Princess must have met Xue Wuye before.

Xue Wuye was indeed a man of his time. Wherever there were exquisite ladies, he would be there, and most of them would eventually hook up with him. Only a few were able to resist his charm.

Was this White Li Princess successfully seduced by him?

“Who told you that he’s the best human talent on sword mastery?” Zhang Ruochen was holding the Abyss Ancient Sword and smiling gently.

“Are you implying you are the best instead of him?” White Li Princess asked.

“Of course.”

White Li Princess shook her head and said, “Your sword mastery is indeed profound enough, but it’s still way inferior to his. His sword master realm is the limit that any half saint can reach, and once he becomes a saint, he’ll become a sword saint. You’re not there yet.”

“How many of his attacks can you resist?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

White Li had indeed fought Xue Wuye before. She answered Zhang Ruochen’s question honestly. “Seventeen.”

“Okay. I can defeat you with fewer than seventeen attacks.”

Zhang Ruochen looked confident and shook his long sword. All of a sudden, Sword Qi spread, and he became sharper and more aggressive.

White Li Princess shot a glance at afar. She saw that the white-caped old man and the white-caped old woman had been suppressed by Sikong One and Sikong Two.

She then said, “If you can defeat me within seventeen moves, I’ll go see Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon with you. If you can’t, then immediately leave with your men.”

“Okay!” Zhang Ruochen promised.

White Li Princess indeed had the power to negotiate with him. She was the princess of a race, so she must have some hidden cards.

That Carnivorous Holy Flower alone was already difficult to deal with.

Yet Zhang Ruochen took up this challenge again.
