Chapter 2037: The Black Demon Realm’s Retaliation

Whoosh!

The four figures standing on the edge of the Endless Abyss immediately bolted back as they pulled away from Zhang Ruochen.

“Why did Zhang Ruochen come out at this time?” One of them asked grimly.

The person had a terrifying black hole behind him, named Zhong Lin, hailing from the Black Demon Realm, and cultivated the Demonstone Engraving’s Demonic Black Hole Engraving.

The expressions of the other three were uncomfortable too. They were only just talking about Zhang Ruochen earlier, and who knew the devil they spoke of would appear before them so soon.

They were under orders to search for clues of the treasures left behind by the Blood God. But no one expected their luck to be so rotten, and ran into that monster Zhang Ruochen.

So what now?

If they wanted to escape, it would not be an easy either.

A look of concern appeared in Mu Lingxi’s eyes, saying. “Why are the people from the Black Demon Realm here? Are they attacking the Sect of the Blood God again?” If it was as she had guessed, then the situation would undoubtedly be terrible.

The Black Demon Realm had suffered a massive setback earlier with a massive loss of face. If they were to make a comeback, they would definitely be well prepared, and the number of elites dispatched will definitely more than last time.

“Don’t worry too much. Don’t forget, Blackie is holding fort at the sect. It is now an Array Master, controlling three Ninth-Rank Formation Arrays. It won’t be easy for anyone to break into it.” Zhang Ruochen comforted her.

Of course, despite saying that, Zhang Ruochen had the same concerns in his heart too.

A hundred thousand years later, the Black Demon Realm was no longer the same realm that needed to rely on the Sect of the Blood God. It had stepped into the ranks of the powerful worlds, raising a large number of powerful Saint Kings.

While Zhang Ruochen had come into contact with some Black Demon Realm cultivators, none of them had been the top-level ones so far.

As far as Zhang Ruochen knew, the leader of the Black Demon Realm was named Mo Sheng, and had cultivated three of the Demonstone Engravings, and his cultivation strength was unfathomable.

Although Mo Sheng was nowhere close to Xuemo ten thousand years ago, but he was extremely accomplished. Plus, if Mo Sheng could cultivate the three Demonstone Engravings to their fullest, he may not be much weaker than Xuemo.

If Mo Sheng were to come, he will definitely be a powerful foe.

“Zhang Ruochen, I advise to not make any fruitless resistance. This time, you will have no chance of winning. The power of our Black Demon Realm is not something you can contend with. If you don’t want the Sect of the Blood God to be annihilated, surrender and hand over the four original imprints of the Demonstone Engravings, and also the Blood God’s body.” The other person shouted coldly.

Behind this person was a black star, named Gong Shan, also hailing from the Black Demon Realm, and cultivated the Demonic Darkstar Engraving.

Zhang Ruochen showed a smile. “Since you dare to stay that to me, then I’ll start with you.”

As he said, Zhang Ruochen struck immediately. Since that person was a foe, then there was no need to waste any words.

Zhang Ruochen blasted his palm out, an azure light radiated, forming a lifelike azure dragon as it let out an earth-shaking roar.

Gong Shan’s expression suddenly changed. Even this palm strike from Zhang Ruochen alone was enough to make him feel a great threat.

They were of the same cultivation level, yet when compared to Zhang Ruochen, the gulf between them was massive.

“Break!”

The person with the blood sword behind him yelled, and a blood sword condensed from evil blood Qi flew out to meet the azure dragon shot out by Zhang Ruochen.

His name was Ji Fan, and he was the strongest of the four.

The blood sword unleashed a terrifying murderous intent, seemingly able to cleave the world apart.

One could faintly feel an incomparably majestic phantom of the demon forming, holding a blood sword in one hand.

Baaam!!

The blood sword could not withstand the terrifying power of the azure dragon, and it shattered inch by inch.

Correspondingly, the power of the azure dragon was being constantly consumed, as its form gradually became faint.

Once the blood sword was completely shattered, the azure dragon dissipated without a trace. It only left a surge of azure saint power that continued to bombard Gong Shan.

At this moment, Gong Shan had reacted as a mighty demonic Qi emerged from his body, forming a giant demonic hand to block the azure saint power.

“Fall back!”

As he truly felt Zhang Ruochen’s strength, Ji Fan shouted immediately.

In fact, there was no need for him to remind the others, as the three others had already chosen to retreat.

The cultivations of the trio were very high and on the same level as Zhang Ruochen’s. While they were comparable to the Heaven’s Reach realm, when compared to Zhang Ruochen, they were on totally different levels.

“Don’t you think it’s too late to try to run now?”

A cold glint appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes. Since they had appeared before him, how could they escape so easily?

As soon as he raised his hand, nearly a hundred thousand Precepts of Dimensions emerged and fused into the space before him.

With Zhang Ruochen as the center, dimensional ripples appeared and quickly spread in all directions, freezing a large area of space.

With Zhang Ruochen’s current comprehension of the Path of Dimensions, using the many spatial techniques was as simple as snapping his fingers. Besides, they were extremely powerful. If a top-level Nine-Step Saint King were to be careless before him, that cultivator would suffer greatly for that folly and might even lose his or her life.

“Zhang Ruochen’s a real freak. He had never been to the Fane of Dimension to cultivate yet his attainment in the Path of Dimension is far beyond most of the Saint King-level disciples. No wonder so many gods do not want to see him grow.” Ji Fan said to himself.

In the past, he had heard that Zhang Ruochen’s spatial techniques were so powerful, and he felt that it was being exaggerated.

Now that he had experienced it himself, he suddenly discovered that Zhang Ruochen’s spatial techniques were even more terrifying than the rumors had suggested.

Sensing the power of dimensions sweeping over at an extreme speed, Ji Fan gritted his teeth as he took out a turtle shell the size of his palm and blasted it out as quickly as possible.

The turtle shell looked extremely old, and its surface was full of cracks like it would shatter with the slightest of touch.

However, after being roused by a large amount of demonic energy, the turtle shell burst out with bright saint light, as an immortal saint power of a Supreme Saint was unleashed instantly, like a slumbering Supreme Saint being awakened at this moment.

After sacrificing the turtle shell, Ji Fan immediately transformed into a sword and quickly escaped.

The turtle shell was something he had accidentally obtained, and it was a supreme treasure. However, it was seriously damaged and could only be used once.

Zhang Ruochen was really too strong, forcing him to use this trump card. Otherwise, none of the four of them could escape.

Crack!

The crisp breaking sound rang.

Not only did the turtle shell crack open, but the frozen dimension was also being forcibly torn apart.

Zhang Ruochen had wanted to intercept the four members of the Black Demon Realm but the turtle shell was rushing towards him and he could not ignore it. He could sense the terrifying power contained inside the turtle shell, and if he was not careful, he would suffer great damages.

“Let me try the power of the complete Zangshan Demonic Mirror.”

With a thought, Zhang Ruochen summoned the Zangshan Demonic Mirror out from his sea of Qi.

Infusing it with saint Qi, densely packed Supreme Inscriptions appeared on the surface of the mirror as a surge of demonic Qi emerged from the mirror, transforming into black sacred light as they crushed at the turtle shell.

In an instant, the shell stopped and shattered, as the unleashed Supreme Saint power was forced back into the turtle shell.

“Retract.”

Zhang Ruochen snapped his fingers and the mirror immediately released a powerful suction force.

The turtle shell’s power had already been shackled, and it was easily sucked into the Zangshan Demonic Mirror.

Recalling the mirror into his hand, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.

Compared with the past, the Zangshan Demonic Mirror’s power had now doubled.

In the end, it was a Supreme Sacred Artifact that was as famous as the Blood Mirror, even when severely damaged, its power was still much more powerful than a newly refined Supreme Sacred Artifact.

“There are extremely powerful energy fluctuations over at the Sect of the Blood God. I can vaguely perceive the aura of many powerful presences there,” Mu Lingxi said grimly.

With the help of the Ancient Snow Mountain’s special environment, Mu Lingxi’s perception has become extremely keen.

A cold light flashed in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as he toyed with the Zangshan Demonic Mirror and said, “They are actually more proactive in going against the Kunlun Realm than their masters. That’s fine, we’ll settle all scores at once.”

With Zhang Ruochen’s hatred of the Black Demon Realm, even if they had not gone on the offensive, he would have looked for them himself to settle their scores when he had the opportunity.

So, now that the Black Demon Realm had their eyes on the Sect of the Blood God, it was exactly what Zhang Ruochen wanted.

Without making too many stops, Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi turned into two rainbow lights as they darted past the Ancient Snow Mountain, and rushed straight to the Sect of the Blood God.

At the location of the Ancient Snow Mountain, hundreds of Black Demon Realm elites were gathering there at the moment, with all of their cultivation bases were above Saint King-realm.

The Black Demon Realm could rank in the top one thousand among the various major realms under the Celestial Court.

Even the Guanghan Realm, which ranked at the end, now had about three thousand Saint Kings. How could the number of Saint Kings in the Black Demon Realm be any lesser?

Unlike other major realms who had only sent some of their powerhouses to Kunlun Realm, the Black Demon Realm sent almost all of them as they deployed all powerhouses beneath a Supreme Saint to Kunlun Realm.

The Black Demon Realm did that simply because they had betrayed the Kunlun Realm and were afraid that once the Kunlun Realm revived, it would seek them out for payback.

At the same time, it was also to collect the 36 true imprints of the Demonstone Engravings. This was extremely important for the Black Demon Realm as the foundation of the Black Demon Realm was the Demonstone Engravings.

Should they get the true imprints, it would be easier for the Black Demon Realm to raise elites.

More importantly, those gods in the Black Demon Realm could use the true imprints to comprehend the Supreme Canon, and that was what they desired the most.

As far as the gods were concerned, cultivating divine power was inferior, only by mastering the Canons could one truly set foot on the peak.

It was just that the Supreme Canons were extremely arcane, and could not be grasped easily, often requiring the help of external objects.

For the Black Demon Realm, this was the final chance to seize the true imprints of the Demonstone Engravings, because once Kunlun Realm is destroyed, some of the true imprints may disappear forever.

On top of one of the Ancient Snow Mountain’s peaks, a man and a woman stood side by side as they looked down at the Sect of the Blood God.

The man was thin and ugly, with sharp ears and two prominent sharp fangs. On his back was a pair of thin fleshy wings, as his entire person looked like a human-shaped bat.

The woman was extremely beautiful, tall, and fair. She was dressed in a dark green tulle dress, and her graceful figure loomed about, fascinating any onlooker.

“The defenses of the Sect of the Blood God should have been completely laid to waste. How can they be redeployed so quickly? And they are even stronger than before,” the ugly man frowned as he said.

The tall woman whispered, “To be able to lay out three interlocking Ninth-Rank formations in such a short time, this must be the work of an Array Master. There are many capable people by Zhang Ruochen’s side.”

When facing an Array Master, anyone would get a headache.

According to rumors, some powerful formation Array Masters could even challenge top-level Supreme Saints.

“We need to move faster. We cannot afford to fall behind those guys.” The ugly-looking said with some urgency.

This time, the Black Demon Realm armor was divided into five columns, attacking the Sect of the Blood God from different directions.

Whichever column that could break into the Sect of the Blood God the fastest would undoubtedly have the opportunity to make the greatest contribution.

Over on the Ancient Snow Mountain’s side, it was lead by the ugly man and the tall women.

The four people who had went to the Endless Abyss to explore the situation belonged to their column.

“Hmm? Why did Ji Fan and the rest come back so soon?”

Suddenly, the ugly man turned his head around with a surprised look on his face.

The tall woman’s expression changed a little as she said. “Something went wrong. Ji Fan and the others seemed to be panicking. That… That is Zhang Ruochen!”

The tall woman’s eyes focused as her gaze was locked tightly onto a figure that was flying over at an extremely fast speed.

“Killing Zhang Ruochen is a great achievement.” The ugly-looking stuck his tongue out as he licked his lips. His gaze looking at Zhang Ruochen was scorching.

Hearing this, the tall woman frowned and said, “Yan Ba and Cang Long both died in Zhang Ruochen’s hands. He is not that easy to deal with.”

“Luo Yu, to think you’re that afraid of Zhang Ruochen, that is not you. Zhang Ruochen is indeed very strong, but with us working together, we may have a chance in taking him down. Do you intend to let such a good opportunity go?” The murderous intent in the ugly man’s eyes surged violently.

Luo Yu pondered slightly and her eyes brightened, saying. “Then let’s seek fortune in danger. With the two of us join forces, even if we can’t kill Zhang Ruochen, we should have no problem keeping ourselves safe. Teng Gu, the usual, you lead the attack.”

“Keh keh, no problem. I cannot wait to taste the blood in Zhang Ruochen’s body.” Teng Gu grinned.

Although he was not an Immortal Vampire, his desire for blood was no less than one.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen was about to arrive, Teng Gu yelled. “Deploy formation!”

Instantly, the hundreds of Black Demon Realm saint kings moved as they formed two special formations.

In an instant, the powers of the two formations were bestowed upon Teng Gu and Luo Yu.

The Saint Kings that had bestowed their powers onto the two of them had cultivated the same Demonstone Engraving as the two.

As a result, they could gather their powers on Teng Gu and Luo Yu through a secret technique.

Boom!!

Both Teng Gu and Luo Yu erupted in extremely terrifying auras as their power rose steadily.

One could see that a terrifying Thousand-Foot Dark Bat was forming behind Teng Gu as it absorbing the saint Qi of heaven and earth in a frenzy.

Behind Luo Yu, a dark-brown guqin was formed, looking extremely corporeal while emitting terrifying energy fluctuations. It seemed like a true treasure.

The Thousand-Foot Dark Bat opened its mouth, unleashing a strange sound wave that could not be heard.

At the same time, the guqin flew up to Luo Yi as she gently placed her hand on it and started plucking the strings slowly with her bare hands.

The soft and melodious sound of the guqin played, invisible and formless as it swept towards Zhang Ruochen like a tide.

Sensing something was off, Zhang Ruochen immediately stopped and protected Mu Lingxi behind him.

Both the strange sound wave and the music of the guqin ignored physical defenses and directly attacked Zhang Ruochen’s saint soul.

For most cultivators, their Saint Souls were far more fragile than their bodies.

Once the Saint Soul was damaged, no matter how strong it was, it would be greatly weakened.

“Sonic attacks, this is really strange.”

Zhang Ruochen’s expression changed slightly, as he quickly mobilized the various divine marks to firmly protect his saint soul.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen mobilized the Precepts of Dimension, causing the space around him to distort and isolated some of the sound waves with the power of dimension.

Taking advantage of the time Zhang Ruochen was being held back, Ji Fan and the others were able to escape and returned to Teng Gu’s side.

“Thank you, Brother Teng Gu for your help.” Ji Fan, who held the blood sword, gave Teng Gu a hold-fist salute.

Teng Gu glanced at the four of them, saying, “To be able to escape after running into Zhang Ruochen, that’s pretty good luck. Next, you shall watch how Luo Yu and I kill Zhang Ruochen from the sides.”

Hearing this, Ji Fan and the others quickly retreated to the side. At this moment, it was difficult for them to get involved anymore.
