Chapter 1235: The Dawn Is Coming
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
After setting up the s.p.a.ce transportation formation, Zhang Ruochen stopped caring about Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and saint beasts from Ancestral Dragon Mountain.
Being invincible among those at the same level and cultivating both martial and deity way only gave him an edge among his peers.
Only those who had enough cultivation were the real great beings, no matter who they were compared to.
Zhang Ruochen was trying to refine his martial way to the saint level.
He was one step away from sanctifying his martial way.
He needed to condense his saint source.
Saint source was made of saint look and holy Qi, together with his comprehension and knowledge.
Zhang Ruochen had six saint looks in total, which meant he could make six saint sources.
“I achieved much more highly on sword master than other saints. Perhaps I can condense a sword master saint source now.”
If he could condense one saint source, Zhang Ruochen would officially become a saint, differentiating himself from a third-trial pre-saint.
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t wait to become a saint in martial way.
“Sword way saint look.”
He put his hands together and yelled.
Gleaming black light gushed out of Zhang Ruochen’s back. A giant sword form saint look was formed in the light.
And then, Zhang Ruochen opened his arms.
The sword form saint look flew between his hands, turning smaller and smaller. Eventually, it turned into a dagger ten inches long, spinning.
Hua.
The fourteen apertures on his palm were opened with holy Qi gus.h.i.+ng out.
He infused the dagger with holy Qi, which further solidified the dagger as if it were made of black crystal with sword rules flowing inside.
Shua Shua.
Cracking sounds came out of Zhang Ruochen’s body as if tens of thousands of swords were spinning around him, but n.o.body could see the sword shadows from the outside.
Ao Xinyan, the alcohol maniac and Blackie all retreated and stared at Zhang Ruochen who was condensing the saint source.
Ao Xinyan was amazed. She said, “Is that Thousand Swords toward Sect? Is our group leader about to become a sword saint?”
Ao Xinyan was also a sword warrior. Her ultimate goal was to become a sword saint.
She couldn’t be more excited to see a young sword saint being born.
Meanwhile, she admired Zhang Ruochen more. They were both at the same age, yet Zhang Ruochen had already far surpa.s.sed her.
Blackie shook its head and said, “He couldn’t condense ten thousand swords. They’re only sword intents, which means Zhang Ruochen is still not there yet.”
“If he can condense the sword intents of the ten thousand swords, that means group leader can become a sword saint. He’s at least half a sword saint now,” Ao Xinyan said.
Just as Zhang Ruochen refined the sword way saint source, a crimson cloud showed up above the ocean.
The air started to get warmer.
The ice and snow started to melt, and the yellow land was revealed. The water in Yin and Yang Ocean turned from blue to crimson.
“The dawn is coming!”
Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon suddenly opened his eyes and looked to Yin and Yang Ocean. It looked keen.
The eleven saint beasts also stood up and walked to Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon.
“Can we summon the ghost ancient boat now, your highness?” Mysterious hedgehog saint beast asked.
“Let’s begin now.”
Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon raised his arm and pointed at the sky. He closed his eyes and started to chant.
Ao Xinyan, Blackie and the alcohol maniac were all paying attention to the saint beasts in Ancestral Dragon Mountain. They all stared at Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon.
“Can’t believe Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon is proficient in ancient spells as well.” Blackie was surprised.
Ao Xinyan said, “Even if Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon didn’t know in the beginning, Ancestral Dragon Mountain would’ve taught him.”
She then said, “Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon wouldn’t just go to Yin and Yang Ocean for no reason. Perhaps he’s going there for the same reason.”
“The same reason.”
Blackie’s pupils constricted, “I’ve got to get that object. I’ll kill anyone who dares stand in my way.”
Ao Xinyan shook her head and said, “We might not be their match. That Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon alone is already a handful, not to mention those terrific beasts following it.”
Ao Xinyan had never seen the saint beasts from Ancestral Dragon Mountain, but she had heard their names.
She could recognize three of the saint beasts following Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon.
“That elder with black thorns on its body is Mysterious Hedgehog Saint. Its mind power is at least at level fifty-two. Even the saints at Xuanhuang Realm are not its match. I heard that it’s killed more than ten saint beasts.
“That beautiful woman with a snake tail is called Xue Zhen Devil Beauty. She reached the state of saint five hundred years ago and mastered millions of savage beasts in Yuan Kong Mountain. She’s definitely an overlord.
“That bald giant ten feet tall is called Mang s.h.i.+si. It’s ranked the fourteenth in the bull beast race. It has special body const.i.tution and has great proficiency in fist techniques and palm techniques. It can rival Taigu remains who’re at the same level. Before Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon becomes a saint, it was the one who’d been protecting him.”
Ao Xinyan knew that Zhang Ruochen and Blackie were powerful enough to rival upper-cla.s.s saints.
However, they still couldn’t compare to saints at Xuanhuang level, which was why she was worried.
If they dared confront the great beings from Ancestral Dragon Mountain, they would definitely be annihilated.
Hong Long Long.
Waves were splattered on the lake, making deafening sounds.
The waves were originally only three feet tall, and then, they became fifteen feet tall, thirty feet tall. In the end, they were more than a thousand feet tall, forming a water wall that connected the sky and land.
The waves looked like moving mountains from afar.
An ancient boat was sailed far off, and the boat was more than ten times taller than the water wave mountain, giving out ancient and overbearing forces.
The ancient boat looked like a giant dragon with a head, claws and a tail, giving out silver light, looking holy.
Led by Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon, all the saint beasts from Ancestral Dragon Mountain kneeled on the ground, saluting the silver ghost ancient boat.
The sky and the water all turned silver, covered by the G.o.dly light.
The alcohol maniac opened his mouth wide with his eyes gleaming. He said, “There’s indeed an ancient boat, and it looks so sacred. Is that a boat made of the remains of the divine dragon? I heard the body of a G.o.d will never decompose. Can I eat the flesh and blood of the divine dragon?”
Ao Xinyan was kneeling on the ground. After hearing what the alcohol maniac said, she was scared and shot a glare at him. “Don’t be disrespectful. If the soul of that divine dragon hears you, he’ll punish us.”
Blackie said, “That’s right. That ghost ancient boat is too incredible. Perhaps it is indeed made of the remains of the divine dragon. If we infuriated the soul of the divine dragon, he can kill us with a slight trace of consciousness.”
The silver ghost ancient boat got closer and closer to the ground, and the force became larger and larger.
The alcohol maniac was intimidated by the forces coming out of the ancient boat. He stopped talking.
Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and the other saint beasts boarded the ghost ancient boat, and then, the giant boat sailed off on the ocean, disappearing from sight.
“If Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon is looking for the same thing, we must go catch up with them now. We can’t let him get the object first.”
Blackie looked to Zhang Ruochen and was worried. It thought, Zhang Ruochen, quickly condensed a saint source. We need to leave now.
The ghost ancient boat would only come at dawn and at dusk.
Once the dawn pa.s.sed, they needed to wait until dusk to take off, which was half a day later than Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon.
Everything could happen in half a day.
Zhang Ruochen’s body was covered by tens of thousands of sword shadows.
n.o.body knew what was happening to him now.
How was the process of condensing sword saint source going?
Blackie’s eyes popped. It couldn’t be more anxious. It said to Ao Xinyan, “Go summon the ghost ancient boat now. We have to leave at dawn today.”
“But group leader’s still refining.”
“We can’t deal with that now. Just summon the ghost ancient boat. If he hasn’t condensed a saint source, we’ll carry him to the boat directly.” Blackie couldn’t be more worried that Sky-swallowing Demonic Drago would take away the sun and moon chaos tower.
Blackie had saved Ao Xinyan before, and he gave her more than one ancient techniques, so Ao Xinyan respected his decision.
She walked out of the formation and walked to the ocean. She reached out her arms and started to chant.
After a while, black clouds showed up in the sky with lightning shuttling in the clouds.
Hong Long Long.
Waves splashed on the ocean again.
A ghost ancient boat sailed from the black mist, looking like a giant skeleton.
Ao Xinyan, the alcohol maniac, and Blackie were all horrified and couldn’t help trembling when it showed up.
The ghost ancient boat summoned by Sky-swallowing Dragon had glowed with silver light, yet the ghost ancient boat summoned by Ao Xinyan looked like the boat of death from h.e.l.l.
Blackie looked terrified and said, “What’s happening? Why are there human and savage beast corpses everywhere on that boat? And there’re thousands of ghosts walking on the deck.”
Ao Xinyan’s face paled seeing the horrific scene on the ghost ancient boat. She said, “I’ve said before that the ghost ancient boats on Yin and Yang Ocean are all different. Some of them are safe, but some are very dangerous. Apparently, the boat we summoned is a ghostly boat full of evil spirits and corpses. We can’t board this boat. Let’s just wait until dusk and summon another boat, shall we?”
Blackie seemed to have ignored what Ao Xinyan said. It looked behind itself and said, “We can’t wait. Enemies are coming!”
A dragon that was three hundred feet long flew toward the ocean, trampling and shaking the ground.
Three beings were standing on the dragon.
At the front was a human-shaped being who was holding a black spear. He stood straight, wearing Ten Saints Blood Armor. It was a Death Knight from the Immortal Temple.
