Chapter 2085: The Ruined Shenlong Temple

The Formation of Time was hidden inside the Ninth-Rank Formation, and it showed no signs at all when activated, making it difficult to guard against. When the mysterious power of time was unleashed, it caught the Seven Top Killers totally off guard, and they suffered grievously before even understanding what was happening.

“You dare look down on my abilities, none of you shall escape.”

Blackie was cocksure as if everything was already under its control.

Right now, with all of the Seven Top Killers wounded by the power of time, Blackie naturally would not let this good opportunity slip. It immediately activated the Formation of Time as a series of Blades of Time slashed out.

The formation was arranged by Zhang Ruochen and Blackie together, combining the Ninth-Rank Formation, the Formation of Time, and the Formation of Space into one. And Blackie had spent a hundred thousand years inside the Qiankun Divine Tree Portrait, so it had deep understanding of time and space.

Therefore, it could easily manipulate the formation, using the power of time and space to its fullest.

With the help of the mysteries of the formation, a faint river of time of condensed, hanging above the Seven Top Killers’ heads.

Although the Seven Top Killers responded very quickly, but it was still too late for them to fully bloke off the power of the Formation of Time as they immediately had another part of their lifespan shaved off. Their entire aura became even weaker as the Fatal Seven Formation became unstable, and the Nether Lotus showing signs of disintegration.

However, the Seven Top Killers were no ordinary persons as they quickly recovered and used the Fatal Seven Formation to fight against the Formation of Time, making it difficult for the power of time to penetrate through.

“Damn it, this Ninth-Rank Formation can actually use the power of time, and it even summoned the phantom of the river of time. This is Zhang Ruochen’s ability.”

Si Buxiu glared with fury, his heart extremely resentful.

Xuese Lianyi said solemnly “What a bizarre ability of time, for it to directly slash two hundred years off our lifespan. If we let Zhang Ruochen continue to grow, I’m afraid he will become a troublesome existence like Saint Monk Xumi.”

As the master of time and space, Saint Monk Xumi’s abilities were unfathomable, and had once caused great headaches to the gods of the Infernal Court, and eventually led to the Infernal Court’s plans to destroy Kunlun Realm failing miserably.

It wasn’t until a hundred thousand years later that the Infernal Court once again had the chance to invade Kunlun Realm. In any case, they did not hope to see a person like Saint Monk Xumi appearing again.

For a time, the expressions of the Seven Top Killers became extremely pained. All this while, they had been invincible, and could crush any foes they face, and neither have they suffer such great a setback before.

Especially now they are still in a dangerous situation, and if not careful, they may very well perish her.

Raawwrrr!

The Pentaclaw Silver Dragon let out a series of dragon roars that struck the heavens, causing the universe to shake.

An extremely chilling aura was released from the dragon claw as if it was about to freeze the entire place in ice.

“The Skydragon Qi of Supreme Yini!”

Xuanming Wushang’s expression changed slightly.

Every Shenlong clan member would refine a ray of dragonsoul fire or a trace of Skydragon Qi of Supreme Yin, which not only could refine their dragon body and dragon soul, but also serve as an offensive ability. Both powers were extremely powerful, and if cultivated to their apex, even the gods would be wary.

The Pentaclaw Silver Dragon before them was manifested using the God-realm Pentaclaw Silver Dragon, and the Skydragon Qi of Supreme Yin it had was undoubtedly very terrifying.

Even if Zhang Ruochen and the others could only rouse one percent of its power, it was enough to pose a threat to a Supreme Saint, and sealed the latter in ice.

“We cannot let the Skydragon Qi of Supreme Yin touch us, Celestial Drape of Darkness.”

The Seven Top Killers immediately changed their formation from offense to defense, and instantly released a majestic surge of power of darkness.

As the power of darkness surged, it quickly evolved into a pitch black drape, covering a radius of hundreds of miles. From a distance, it looked like a giant black egg with a large number of arcane runes on it that loomed about.

Even after deploying the Celestial Drape of Darkness, Xuanming Wushang was still worried so he spat out a dark golden bead and combined it with the Nether Lotus beneath him.

This pearl was no ordinary object, it was an object left behind by a fallen god of the Nether Dragon clan, the Nether Dragon Orb. Inside it was the lifelong divine essence of that God-realm Nether Dragon, and was considered a very powerful divine artifact; and was a thousand times stronger than the stars in the beyond.

With Xuanming Wushang rousing it, the Nether Dragon Orb unleashed a powerful surge of power of darkness and power of curse, forming into Dark Nether Dragons and Cursed Nether Dragons as they flew out of the orb, and merging wth the Celestial Drape of Darkness, causing the latter to become even sturdier.

Baammm!

Using the Celestial Drape of Darkness, the Seven Top Killers finally resisted the devastating attacks by the Ninth-Rank Formation and the Silver Dragon, at a hair’s breadth, winning themselves an opportunity for a breather.

“You think you are safe because you shrank inside a turtle shell? Shatter!”

Blackie shouted, activating the Formation of Space woven inside the Ninth-Rank Formation, using the inscriptions of space to mobilize a terrible power of space as it condensed the power into a peerless blade.

This attack was the Dimensional Splitter that Zhang Ruochen had only mastered not too long ago. However, with the help of the formation, its power was even more devastating, as if it could split a major world apart.

Whooosh!

The Celestial Drape of Darkness was very strong, but against the peerless blade condensed from the power of space, it was still split open in an instant.

Furthermore, the aftershock of the Dimensional Splitter continued to rush towards the Nether Lotus.

At the same time, the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon struck, unleashing the Skydragon Qi of Supreme Yin as its body radiated in divine light, releasing a majestic power of Shenlong, like a dragon rushing out of the sea seemingly wanting to crush everything in its way.

Booom!!!

In the face of the frenzied impact of the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon, the Celestial Drape of Darkness was like paper as it was completely shattered in an instant.

Even the Nether Lotus, the core of the Fatal Seven Formation, burst apart.

Baaam!

The Seven Top Killers all flew back and slammed heavily into the Ninth-Rank Formation, spitting blood in their wake as they were severely injured.

Ever since they cultivated the Fatal Seven Formation, it had never been forcefully broken like this before.

“Brother, we can’t delay any longer.”

An anxious look appeared in Yeming Wuyou’s eyes.

In just a blink of an eye, all of them were severely wounded, if this goes on, they would really die in the hands of Zhang Ruochen and the others.

“No one can bully the Seven Top Killers. Zhang Ruochen, Elder Patriarch Death Zen, and the rest, when we meet again, it will be their doom.” Xuanming Wushang hissed coldly.

The Seven Top Killers did not tarry as they formed a strange mudra at extremely fast speed, and seven dark divine light shot out from their body, forming together into an incomparable divine rune of darkness. It was waxing and waning as if it could come apart at any moment.

One could see that after forming the divine rune of darkness, the faces of all of the Seven Top Killers became much paler. It was obvious they had paid a steep price for this.

Seeing the divine rune of darkness, Zhang Ruochen could not help but narrow his eyes as he yelled. “Strike with all your might! We cannot let them escape!”

The Pentaclaw Silver Dragon once again bloomed in dazzling light, as the vast power of Shenlong erupted. The dragon then opened its jaws, wanting to swallow the Seven Top Killers whole.

Hummm…

The divine runes of darkness vibrated, and a devastating force burst out of it.

Boom!

A gaping hole was ripped open in the Ninth-Rank Formation Blackie was controlling.

Before the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon’s attack struck, the Seven Top Killers inside the divine rune of darkness broke through all blockades, shattering the universe as they fled.

“After them!”

The first reaction of Zhang Ruochen and the others was to rouse the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon to pursue the fleeing Seven Top Killers.

They were all seriously injured right then, and it was impossible for them to escape too far. This was the best time to get rid of them.

They have already come this far, so there was naturally no reason to stop right here.

“Ugh!”

However, at this moment, Ao Xinyan suddenly spouted a mouthful of blood.

Immediately after, the originally mighty Pentaclaw Silver Dragon’s aura instantly faded away, transforming back into the Silver Shenlong Armor and appearing on Ao Xinyan’s body.

“What’s happened?”

Seeing this turn of events, everyone could not help but be surprised.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes turned serious as he immediately stepped forward and held Ao Xinyan, preventing her from falling.

At this moment, Ao Xinyan was very pale, her breathing weak and disordered, and her condition was very bad.

With a flip of his hand, Zhang Ruochen took out a sacred healing pill and fed it into Ao Xinyan’s mouth, and at the same time exercised his Saint Qi to help her refine it.

Ao Xinyan wore an apologetic look as she said, “The power of the Silver Shenlong Armor is too strong, far beyond what I can control at my current stage. The continuous attacks just now had pushed my body to its limit, and I could not hold on any longer. It’s because of me, we missed the great opportunity of slaying the Seven Top Killers.”

Blackie appeared and sighed deeply. “I have to admit, the Fane of the Nether’s Seven Top Killers are indeed very capable. Even the Ninth-Rank Formation I’ve spent a lot of painstaking efforts to refine failed to hold them back. A shame, we were just a step away from wiping them out.”

Given the reputation of the Seven Top Killers in the Infernal Court, if they were slaughtered, it will definitely be a big blow to their morale.

Zhang Ruochen used his spiritual power to probe but found that it could only be extended to hundreds of miles away, and the Seven Top Killers, using their trump card, was so fast that they had already escaped from the area.

“No wonder the divine will of the gods cannot detect what’s inside. The True Dragon Island really suppressed a cultivator’s spiritual power.”

Zhang Ruochen sighed to himself, knowing that he had let slip the best opportunity to kill the Seven Top Killers, but he was not discouraged as he cheered the rest up. “The Seven Top Killers have many tricks up their sleeves. Killing them won’t be easy. For us to so severely wound them this time is already extremely rare.”

A cold glint appeared in the eyes of Corpse Emperor Tianming, as he said. “The Seven Top Killers are still on the island, we might still have a chance to get rid of them.”

After this, the powerhouses of all factions would gather at the Shenlong Temple, and once there, perhaps a better chance may very well appear.

Ao Xinyan said sternly. “We cannot tarry here, we must also rush to the Shenlong Temple as soon as possible.”

“Can your body still hold on?” A look of concern appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.

Ao Xinyan said, “My injury is not serious, I just need some adjustments to recover.”

Now was an extraordinary moment, and Ao Xinyan naturally did not want everyone to be delayed because of her.

Zhang Ruochen and the others darted onto the shoulder of the divine war corpse as Elder Patriarch Death Zen controlled it and headed to the Shenlong Temple.

Baaammm!

The divine war corpse stepped forward, and with a single step, it was hundreds of miles away.

Ao Xinyan sat down, and put aside all distractions as she started to treat her wounds.

Before they reach the Shenlong Temple, she had to restore herself to peak condition, and not become a burden to the team.

True Dragon Island was extremely large, with a radius of several million miles, and the Shenlong Temple was in the center of the island. It will undoubtedly take a long time to get there.

Along the way, it was nothing but devastation as many places still bore traces of battles from times long past. Deep pits with a radius of several thousand miles could be seen everywhere.

There were many giants of the Infernal Court who joined forces to attack the True Dragon Island in the past and fought to the death with the Shenlong Clan. The skies and earth shattered in their wake as they fought, causing the entire area to dim as almost all life in the Yinyang Sea perished.

In the end, the Shenlong clan almost went extinct, and they even failed to protect the Shenlong Temple as it was smashed into pieces.

If it were not for some turn of events causing the gods of the Infernal Court to retreat in a hurry, all of the treasures in the temple would have been looted clean.

As the sacred grounds of the Shenlong Clan, the True Dragon Island back then was a land of prosperity. Yet now, it was a desolate barren with blood-stained soil and rocks everywhere, and the land was painted red in blood, revealing how brutal the battle was.

“What a powerful aura of darkness. The closer we get to the center of the island, the stronger it becomes. To think that after so many years, the remnant of the gods of the Infernal Court had still not dissipated.”

A grim look appeared in Blackie’s eyes.

The vital power of the realm on True Dragon Island was extremely potent, and it was because of the existence of the remnant powers of the gods of the Infernal Court that it could not be absorbed at all.

Even for top-level Saint Kings, if they were to absorb this vital power mixed with the power of darkness, it would inevitably lead to big trouble.

As they thought of it, the power of darkness lingering in the ruins of Shenlong Temple should be even more potent, as that was the main battlefield in the past.

With much effort, Zhang Ruochen and the others finally reached the edge of the temple ruins.

Far away, a towering and magnificent building caught the eyes of Zhang Ruochen and the others.

The entire building’s body was of white gold, cast from a large amount of mysterious metals. There were many exquisite and arcane patterns on it, which seem to resonate with all Paths.

It was a pity that that building was a broken shell, its upper portion had long since disappeared, and was nothing but a ruin.

Even so, its highest point still stood three thousand miles high.

“I never thought that the Shenlong Temple had become like this, I wonder if the Temple of Nine Dawn of the Jiuli Clan, and the Heavens Passage Temple of Lord Wentian of Ten Tribulations is still intact, and where are they now?” Blackie could not help but sigh.

Since the War of the Middle Ages, the three most famous temples of Kunlun Realm had all disappeared without a trace, and no one knew what kind of state they were in now.

Ao Xinyan had a look of sorrow in her eyes as she said, “The Shenlong Temple once stood as high as 7,200 miles, and hundreds of millions of lives on Kunlun Realm would long to enter its halls for pilgrimage and study. What prosperous times it was, but after that calamity, the temple was shattered and the Shenlong clan went extinct, all of its glory became history and was forgotten.”

With the blood of the Shenlong Clan running in her veins, the emotions in Ao Xinyan’s heart were undoubtedly far more poignant than others.

Sadly, she was not born during the Middle Ages, or else, even if it meant putting her life on the line, she would protect the temple, allowing the bloodline of the Shenlong clan to continue flowing.

Speaking of which, For the Shenlong demihumans to survive that calamity to this day was already a great fortune in itself.

The ruins of the Shenlong Temple was massive, spanning tens of thousands of miles, with shattered fragments of the temple littered all over.

With such a wide area, even when the Infernal Court army, the four ancient civilizations and the Skydragon Realm had come with many men, they would not be able to complete the search in a short period of time, and the core region was not some place that they could casually set foot on.

“The spatial structure here is so complex, with som many spatial faults, and destructive powers everywhere. Everyone, be careful.” Zhang Ruochen reminded.

At this moment, everyone’s expressions became very serious. Next, what they had to faced was not only the threat from the ruins itself, but also the threat from the Infernal Court, the ancient civilizations and the Skydragon Realm. Any mistakes could mean losing their lives.

Without any delay, Zhang Ruochen and the others quickly entered the ruins. Elder Patriarch Death Zen had already put the divine war corpse away to avoid drawing attention. Since they were here to stop their enemies, then they needed to keep a low profile, and not expose themselves too easily.
