Chapter 1655: Bloody Ground

Mu Lingxi sent Zhang Ruochen a message. “It’s so strange. The cultivators of Heaven Field seem to have split into two groups.”

“Not every cultivator dares to come into this forbidden zone,” Zhang Ruochen said. “It must be that one group followed the footprints and scent in the air to pursue Xiang Chunan and the Psychic Sage. Another group doesn’t dare to venture in, so they stayed outside the cave.”

“Then we must hurry over and help Brother Xiang,” Mu Lingxi said.

Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “Xiang Chunan has the Thousand-Mile Vision and his eyesight is far better than us. He has a great advantage in this forbidden zone. He’d probably discover the Heaven Field cultivators before they can even find him, so there’s nothing to worry about.”

“Then, we should…”

Mu Lingxi sensed the murderous Qi pouring out of Zhang Ruochen’s body and immediately stopped.

Zhang Ruochen stared at the exit of the cave. “This forbidden zone isn’t controlled by the Truth Godly Palace. If we get trapped by them, what do you think they’ll do?”

Mu Lingxi understood what Zhang Ruochen wanted to do. She tugged her hair softly and said, “But there are many cultivators guarding the exit. Each of them is in the Saint King Realm.”

“The enemies are out in the open,” Zhang Ruochen said. “We are hidden. This is an advantage.”

“Okay, since you’ve decided, I won’t try to dissuade you. What do you need me to do?” Mu Lingxi lifted her pale face and studied Zhang Ruochen.

“No hurry,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Wait until I get closer and test how strong they are before acting.”

A black-robed man who was skilled in formations had set up a fog formation with the cave exit as the center.

Hiss, hiss.

Cold black smoke rose up from the ground. All land within 100 feet became one with the blackness of the forbidden zone.

“With the fog formation, even if the zone has prehistoric monsters, they won’t be able to find us.” The black-robed man held a crystal formation ball and sat down.

Lan Sibai took out a red piece of jade and threw it out. When it landed, it started burning with a whoosh and turned into a fireball.

“What are you doing?” a bone thin creature berated. “Do you want to lure the monsters over?”

“What are you scared of?” Lan Sibai asked casually. “With the fog formation blocking all light and heat, even if there are monsters here, they won’t be able to discover us.”

The bone thin creature was like a bat. His cultivation was even higher than Lan Sibai, but Lan Sibai was from Heaven Field, so he didn’t dare to offend him. Thus, he stopped speaking and closed his eyes, using his ears to listen to any noises in the darkness. He was on high alert.

The saint jade burned and firelight illuminated the darkness.

Feeling the waves of heat, Lan Sibai’s fear finally scattered, so he asked, “I keep hearing you all mention prehistoric monsters…what exactly do they look like? Are they really creatures that have survived from prehistoric times ’till now?”

The black-robed man holding the crystal formation ball shook his head. “It’s not that dramatic. I heard that it’s creatures with prehistoric Yin Qi… Might be dead spirits.”

“In that case, what’s so scary about it?” Lan Sibai scoffed.

“The prehistoric Yin Qi may be the evil that destroyed the civilization before Heaven Field. Even a Supreme Saint fears it.”

Suddenly, the bone thin bat’s ears twitched. He gestured for them to stop talking and sent a message to the six Saint Kings. “Movement in the darkness.”

Lan Sibai’s smile vanished. Growing nervous, he summoned his white sword and gripped it.

The other Saint Kings held their breath and tensed to the max. They all looked into the darkness, but they couldn’t sense anything wrong at all.

Just as they furrowed their brows, thinking that the bat had an auditory hallucination, the entire space shook violently.

Kaboom!

The space exploded and caved in. Half of their outer formation was destroyed.

“Can these prehistoric creatures use spatial power too?” Lan Sibai kept retreating in fear.

“Everyone, spread out!” the bat yelled. “King Yinjie, hurry and activate the formation. Stop the second wave of the attack.”

King Yinjie, dressed in black robes, pointed his ten withered fingers at the crystal ball to activate the formation. But then there were crackles and a layer of ice spread from the distance. It actually froze the formation runes so they couldn’t be activated.

“Oh, no. It’s Extreme Yin Pluto Ice. Everyone, hurry and leave.”

The bat spread its wings and flew dozens of feet into the air. His expression was dark. Evil Qi bounded out of his body. Next, a ring-shaped Ten-thousand-year-old saint weapon released Second Yao power and attacked somewhere in the darkness.

Boom!

The ring landed on the ground and made the ground collapse. Wild energy spread in all directions.

Whoosh!

A spatial crack flew out of the darkness and hit the bat’s abdomen. Blood sprayed out.

The bat cried out in pain and fell to the ground, landing on the ice. Strands of Extreme Yin Pluto Ice Qi surged into his wound.

Gradually, his cries disappeared and he was sealed in ice on the ground.

The expressions of the remaining six Saint Kings changed. They hadn’t expected that this place would be so dangerous. In an instant, a Saint King had died and they didn’t even know what the enemy looked like.

Whoosh!

Dozens of spatial cracks flew out of the darkness.

When they discovered the spatial cracks, they were already within 100 feet of them. They had no time to dodge them. Blocking them was even more impossible.

“Saint Light Rune.”

Lan Sibai sent out one of his runes. A layer of white saint light emerged, enveloping the six Saint Kings.

The dozens of spatial cracks landed on the white light like rain landing in a river. They produced ripples but didn’t tear it apart.

Lan Sibai’s lips curled up and he scoffed. “My Saint Light Rune is supported by the power of light. It’s not something spatial cracks can rip apart.”

The Way of Light was one of the ancient ways.

With the power of light, the rune was very strong and could fend off all kinds of power in the world. Only the power of darkness countered it.

If spatial power wasn’t strong enough, it couldn’t penetrate the power of light.

The dark-robed King Yinjie’s eyes were cold. “The enemy shouldn’t be a prehistoric monster. He must be a spatial cultivator. Who are you and why are you attacking us?”

There was no answer in the darkness.

The light from Lan Sibai’s rune kept dimming. Small cracks appeared on the rune scroll too.

“The energy is about to be used up. Everyone, think of a solution.” Lan Sibai was pained too. After all, he only had one extremely precious Saint Light Rune.

“I have a Supreme Saint’s Saint Figure Rune.”

A second step Saint King woman in black robes quickly activated all her demonic Qi to her back.

An image appeared on her pale bare back. It was like demonic veins swimming on her snowy skin.

Boom!

The power bursting from her grew stronger and stronger. Soon, she broke past the second step level and reached the third step, fourth step, fifth step…

Moments later, her cultivation reached the seventh step Saint King level. Her combat ability had improved greatly.

This wasn’t her power anymore. It was the power of her race’s Supreme Saint.

Her vision improved greatly and she saw a handsome scholar in blue clothing standing on a piece of wood a dozen meters away.

Their eyes met.

Then the woman clenched her hands into claws and attacked the scholar.

As if possessed by a demon, she had unlimited strength. The claw came from thin air and shook the world. It was definitely the power of a seventh step Saint King.

Faced with this, the scholar was still composed. He pulled a piece of white jade from his sleeves and sent it out.

Five-colored Qi poured out of the jade. Then, an extremely advanced power filled the air.

Boom!

The Saint Figure Rune on the woman’s back was restricted by that power and exploded.

Without the support of the Saint Figure Rune, the woman was like a leaking balloon. She immediately returned to the second step level.

“How is this possible? Who are you? Why do you have the Merits Godly Stamp?” Staring at the hovering jade, the woman was extremely shocked.

The scholar still didn’t say anything. There was no point in talking to a dead person.

With one hand behind his back, he held a heavy sword in the other and brought it down.

Poof!

Sword Way Xuangang emerged from the sword and hit the black-robed woman. Her defenses were all shattered. Finally, the sword hit her body.

Vermillion blood dyed the black dirt.

The beautiful features turned into a skeleton; a beauty turned into a corpse. Another Saint King had died.

In the distance, the remaining five Saint Kings were all shocked. Lan Sibai kept shaking his head. “No, this is impossible. How can the enemy have a Merits Godly Stamp?”

The Merits Godly Stamp was the treasure of the Merits Godly Palace. Using the Merits Qi in the stamp, one could repress and destroy a cultivator’s Saint Figure Rune. Any weapon or outer force that improved combat ability lost effectiveness before the stamp.

When Shang Ziyan sent Wang Xu’s group to go kill Zhang Ruochen, he’d given them a Merits Godly Stamp. After the assassination failed, the stamp fell into Zhang Ruochen’s hands.

Lan Sibai’s Saint Light Rune dimmed completely and lost its defensive abilities. It cracked into paper butterflies and fluttered to the ground.

Zhang Ruochen, disguised as a scholar, cast Spatial Collapse again, breaking the space where the five were. In an instant, two Saint Kings cried out as they were swallowed by the broken space.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen used the Spatial Move to appear behind King Yinjie. He beheaded the man with one strike.

Behind Zhang Ruochen, a broadsword with complete power cut down. Like a silver moon falling from the sky, it contained endless murderous intent and was about to kill Zhang Ruochen.

Without looking back, Zhang Ruochen waved his hand. He sent a three-foot-long spatial crack flying out. It cut the broadsword in half.

Poof, poof.

At the same time, a spatial crack cut the waist of the extremely tall first step Saint King. The two halves of the body flew in different directions.

Zhang Ruochen crushed King Yinjie’s head that was flying in the air. Then he threw out his heavy sword and stabbed the head of the man who’d just been cut in half.

In an instant, six of the seven Saint Kings were killed. The ground was littered with corpses and blood.

Under the firelight, Lan Sibai looked at the blurry blue-robed scholar. His legs trembled and he almost fell to his knees.

Tap, tap.

The scholar held his bloody sword and walked toward him.

Lan Sibai finally saw the scholar’s features clearly and had never felt so shocked before. While retreating, he asked in a quivering voice, “You… How can it be you? How are you skilled in the Spatial Way?”
