Chapter 1138: Break Through

Immediately after, the other pillars of light also pierced the nine-colored light, falling into the vast space outside the royal capital.

Sikong One, Sikong Two, Princess White Li, Huang Yanchen, Qing Mo, Sun Dadi, Blackie, and Murong Yue all appeared. Half of them had entered the top-tier level. Even the weaker Murong Yue was close.

After Zhang Ruochen’s group arrived, the situation outside the capital changed again. He actually had as many top-tier figures as the Immortal Vampires, humans, and savage beasts.

It had been a tripolar situation, but now, there were four sides competing.

The strong figures of the Immortal Vampires and savage beasts all calmed down. They didn’t attack immediately. Sound waves actually traveled across the space between them. They were clearly communicating and discussing.

The arrival of Zhang Ruochen and the Sacred Sect caused the Immortal Vampires and savage beasts to lose their advantage. If they continued fighting, all four sides might suffer losses. It wouldn’t be advantageous to the later competition.

In the end, the Immortal Vampires and savage beasts put away their weapons and retreated cautiously.

“Dammit, it’s that Zhang Ruochen again.” Yellow Sky Crown Princess was unwilling to accept this. She bit her lip. However, the chance was over. She retreated in the end.

“Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen hurried over in time, intimidating the Immortal Vampires and savage beasts. Otherwise, the human race would definitely suffer great losses.”

The humans all let out a breath as if they’d been saved. They knew that danger was resolved for now.

Of course, the humans quickly felt terror. “Zhang Ruochen is too strong now! He can counter the three main races by himself?”

One of the humans on the side agreed, saying, “Empress Chi Yao spent so many resources to develop the nine Heirs so the humans had top fighters that could suppress the savage beasts. But what did Zhang Ruochen use to gather so many shockingly talented people, each one with the abilities of an Heir?”

Actually, Sikong One, Sikong Two, Sun Dadi and the others were still a bit weaker than the Heirs, but the difference wasn’t that big. They also had special abilities that the Heirs didn’t, which could lessen the gap.

For example, Sikong One and Two definitely weren’t the Heirs’ match alone, but when they worked together, they were multiple times stronger. Even two Heirs together might not be their match.

In his crazed state, Sun Dadi could become a fiery spiritual monkey. His combat ability would skyrocket until he was stronger than common Taigu Remains.

No matter what, the top-tier figures that Zhang Ruochen had brought really shocked the human cultivators. After they had all matured in 100 years, they would definitely dominate the world. How powerful would Zhang Ruochen’s force be then?

Only the few Heirs were still composed, because they knew that the humans, savage beasts and Immortal Vampires had many more top-tier figures than these. The ones who stood out were only the representatives. There were many more hidden in the shadows.

The humans had a rich heritage. Zhang Ruochen’s power was indeed strong to instill fear in all the creatures, but he wasn’t at the point of fighting an entire race.

Qitian Crown Prince carried the God-killing Cross Shield with his six flesh wings unfurled. Radiating with suffocating Blood Qi, he looked at the royal capital in the distance.

“I believe that there’s no need for us to start a war now. We should work together and first break through the capital’s city defense formation.”

“The Blue Dragon Void World has withered further,” the Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon said. “The city defense formation has weakened greatly. It’s not even 10% of the original power. If we all work together, we might be able to break through it before the Grade Nine Saintly Source Spring appears. We can then compete for the saintly liquid.”

The other Heirs and Zhang Ruochen naturally didn’t have objections and all agreed.

Qitian Crown Prince looked into the vast cloudy sky and laughed. “Friends standing in the shadows, shouldn’t you also appear and help?”

Sizzle, sizzle.

A fiery-red torch appeared. It stood at the top of a mountain. It was hundreds of feet tall and had hot flames. It was the apparition of a parasol tree formed by flames. Very thick and radiating with shocking heat, it melted the dirt.

Qiu Yu stood at the top of the tree. His temperament was cold. Hands behind his back, he gave off the feeling of an undefeatable figure.

In the other direction, a youth walked out of nine-colored light. He looked abnormally handsome with clear skin and long black hair that trailed on the ground. Seeing this young man, all the top-tier figures showed fear.

This man was Emperor Tianming who’d come back to life. Not only were the top-tier figures shocked, but even those who’d surpassed that level—Qitian Crown Prince, Qiu Yu, and Zhang Ruochen—became serious.

Next, the mutant creatures in the top ten of the Outer Rank walked out. They were all part of the top-tier.

Han Qiu stood on the head of a dragon corpse. She came to the outside of the capital with a group of Wuchangs and Corpse Kings. This created another commotion.

Almost all the top figures that had remained in the Blue Dragon Void World had appeared.

“Attack!” Qitian Crown Prince roared.

He took off the God-killing Cross Shield and poured Holy Qi into it. The shield instantly unleashed power more terrifying than the Destruction of the Thousand Patterns. He slammed it down. It passed through the clouds and landed above the royal capital.

“Oh my! What is that… It’s a cross even bigger than a mountain…”

“Is god coming to destroy the world?”

The natives of the royal capital watched as the huge cross descended from the sky. They collapsed to the ground in fright. It felt like they were being punished by god.

The city defense formation appeared. It was like a bowl overturned on the ground. The God-killing Cross Shield hit the bowl of light and instantly emitted a deafening boom. Light flew out in all directions.

Kaboom.

In that moment, the city that extended for more than 200 miles actually shook. The city defense formation didn’t shatter, but everyone knew how powerful Qitian Crown Prince was now.

Even some of the top-tier figures were covered in cold sweat. If they were hit by that strike, they would be destroyed even with their cultivation.

However, Qiu Yu was still nonchalant. He slowly raised a hand and a phoenix-shaped flame appeared in his palm.

“Phoenix Flame.”

He flicked his finger and the flame flew out. The small flame enlarged like a phoenix shooting into the sky. In the end, the fire phoenix was dozens of miles long. The head, feathers, claws, and tail were all visible. It was like a true phoenix.

The fire phoenix crashed against the city defense formation. It emitted destructive power that burned the light shield to a red-hot color. The ground around the formation had all melted. The red lava bubbled. It was like a defensive river of lava.

Emperor Tianming’s eyes both had two pupils. Four beams of light shot out of the four pupils. They hit the defense formation, forcing it to cave in.

The formation hadn’t broken yet, but the beams of light penetrated it and hit the capital’s wall.

Kaboom.

A large portion of the towering and sturdy city walls actually collapsed. This was unbelievable to the people. How could the move damage the architecture behind the defense formation without breaking the shield?

Was the city defense formation of any use against him? If he wanted to kill someone, that person would be dead even if he hid in the defense formation.

Qitian Crown Prince, Qiu Yu, and Emperor Tianming were all crazily strong. Many of the creatures present, including those in the top-tier, all wanted to back out. They didn’t dare compete for the Saintly Source Spring and World Spirit anymore.

Next, Motian Crown Prince, the Sky-Swallowing Demonic Dragon, Rosefinch Fairy, Monk Lidi, Xue Wuye… They all displayed top techniques to attack the defense formation.

The space around the capital was indeed sturdy. It withstood the strong power without getting damaged. Many cracks appeared on the ground and lava surged out. It felt like the ground was about to collapse.

“Fine, I won’t be greedy anymore. This group is too scary. Competing with them for the treasures will kill me.”

“I don’t want to be cannon fodder! I’m going back to Kunlun’s Field!”

The weaker creatures were completely terrified. They quickly decided to turn and leave the capital.

The union of the Blood God Sect, Shangguan Clan, and Cai Family left, no longer fighting for the Grade Nine Saintly Source Spring. With their abilities, they were only cannon fodder before the strong cultivators. It was better to leave earlier. At least they could preserve some vitality.

Zhang Ruochen wasn’t impatient to fight. He and Blackie went to the edge of the defense formation to look for the weak spots.

“No need to look. It’s here.” Blackie had very high attainments in formations and arrays and had great eyesight. It quickly found one point of the formation.

Zhang Ruochen activated the power of space. He pointed at that spot. The space was torn apart and seven great spatial cracks flew toward that point of the formation.

The city defensive formation was very advanced and distorted the space. However, the spatial structure was normal at this point.

The spatial cracks flew over. With a rip, seven medium-sized cracks appeared on the formation. Combined with the attacks of the other strong cultivators, the defense formation collapsed like a popped balloon.

The royal capital of the Blue Dragon Dynasty became an undefended city.
