Chapter 1472: Retreat
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
After the nine heavenly maidens merged with each other, the new heavenly maiden gleamed, and her power was stronger than ordinary saint kings.
Lord Lingquan was startled and he had never run into something so strange before, and neither had he come across someone so powerful as she managed to defeat him with one strike, and he had supreme complete body const.i.tution.
Nine Heavenly Maiden looked like she was made of heavenly jade, giving out dimming fragrance. She had an ethereally beautiful face, and her temperament kept changing, elegant, overbearing, frail or mysterious.
She looked like a G.o.ddess descending to the mortal realm, and nine different skies showed up above her head, and in each sky there were lots of saintly way rules, which looked divine.
Even Zhang Ruochen was thrilled, and he couldn’t help looking at Nine Heavenly Maiden.
“No wonder Qing Mo was able to sense where they are, and she could even feel that they were getting weaker. That’s the connection among the Nine Heavenly Maidens. What kind of extraordinary techniques have Chi Yao bestowed upon them?” Zhang Ruochen was perplexed.
Saint Book that was triggered by Nine Heavenly Maiden’s power couldn’t be more forceful, and the characters formed waves that tumbled in the G.o.dly palace, dispelling all the evil sha Qi.
The G.o.dly place also changed drastically as traces of G.o.dly light gushed out of the G.o.dly palace, attacking each of the first marquis, forcing them defend themselves.
“Screw you!”
G.o.dly engravings emerged on the skin of Lord Lingquan as his forces surged.
The purple stone became larger and larger as it was drived by evil sha Qi, and in the end, it turned into a giant purple G.o.dly mountain.
“This stone was made by a weapon saint master from Luosha race. He collected a purple star near a black hole and made this secret valuable. It can guard or destroy the s.p.a.ce.”
The purple G.o.dly mountain was ma.s.sive. Even Lord Shaojun needed to use all his strength to carry it. He then threw it toward Nine Heavenly Maiden, breaking all the characters.
“Come back, G.o.dly palace.”
Nine Heavenly Maiden’s forehead shone as she stepped back, meanwhile, she released a great saint force from her arm, putting the G.o.dly palace back.
Although the G.o.dly palace shrunk a lot as it ascended to the sky, it was still more than three hundred feet tall.
Mysterious engravings flowed on the palace, releasing an ancient power.
The G.o.dly palace clashed with the purple G.o.dly mountain.
At the next moment, traces of G.o.dly light burst out of the swamp, annihilating all the cold Qi and flames.
Canivorous Holy Flower was fighting hundreds of Luosha marquises using its roots and vines. When the light burst out, most of its vines were destroyed.
Meanwhile, a large group of Luosha marquises were killed.
The power from the clash between Nine Heavenly Maiden and Lord Lingquan was way stronger than that from saints.
Their weapons, ‘G.o.dly palace’ and ‘purple G.o.dly mountain’ were both incredible weapons, much more forceful than ten thousand patterns saint weapons.
Lord Lingquan pressed his chest and stepped back more than ten miles.
That clash severely injured him.
Nine Heavenly Maiden was also slightly wounded as her hand was bleeding, yet she easily healed that after operating large circle.
All the eight first marquises retreated and stood behind Lord Lingquan, staring at Nine Heavenly Maiden.
Zhang Ruochen was also observing Nine Heavenly Maiden. She could see Saint Lady in her, and Martial Saint Canglan, Qing Mo, Siming G.o.ddess and other heavenly maidens.
Their bodies and saint souls were all combined.
“Lord Lingquan obviously has supreme complete body const.i.tution, and he’s a pinnacle absolute saint, yet he was also defeated by her. Is Nine Heavenly Maiden the real trump card cultivated by Chi Yao?”
Zhang Ruochen reckoned that he didn’t stand a chance higher than thirty percent against Nine Heavenly Maiden, even if he used the power of time and s.p.a.ce, unless he became an absolute saint.
Lord Lingquan didn’t need to fear a Nine Heavenly Maiden as he could totally team up with nine first marquises to defeat her.
Yet they also needed to fight Zhang Ruochen at the same time.
Boom!
A tumbling mind power gushed out, turning the swamp upside down.
Everyone looked to where the mind power came from, and they saw Chu Siyuan who was being suppressed by Marquis Xianling started to gleam with holy light, and his hair and beard waved in the air.
He suddenly opened his eyes, and two light pillars gushed out of his pupils, knocking Marquis Xianling’s body away, making her bleed.
Chu Siyuan immediately drew a blood-red line in the sky with his finger, and that blood-red line turned into a blood-red sword, piercing toward Marquis Xianling’s heart.
Marquis Xianling formed a mark and wielded thirteen layers of light marks, clas.h.i.+ng with the blood-red sword.
Bang Bang!
Blood-red sword pierced through the thirteen layers of light marks and hit the chest of Marquis Xianling.
“That stubborn old guy had his mind power reach level fifty-five and has become a mind power saint king.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head, but he didn’t find it surprising. After all, Chu Siyuan should’ve reached that level a long time ago.
Lord Lingquan jumped up and grabbed the waist of Marquis Xianling and yelled, “Retreat!”
Lord Lingquan spread his black wings and rushed toward the forest like a lightning ball, followed by the eight first marquises.
Although Chu Siyuan’s mind power had reached level fifty-five, he was way too injured to catch Lord Lingquan.
It was the same for Nine Heavenly Maidens. Every one of them was severely injured, except Qing Mo, so they couldn’t fight for a long time.
And besides, Lord Lingquan and the first marquises were all great beings, so n.o.body could say for sure who was going to win the fight.
Only four Confucius saints survived, aside from the nine heavenly maidens and Chu Siyuan. If it weren’t for Zhang Ruochen, they might’ve been totally annihilated.
And this fight made them realize more than ever the real power of Luosha race.
Zhang Ruochen still looked calm. He took out a bottle, flew to above the swamp and collected Luosha fragmented souls, after which he waved at Carnivorous Holy Flower and said, “Let’s go!”
“Are you going to leave without saying anything, Zhang Ruochen?” Chu Siyuan said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Why? Are you going to force me to stay after you’ve become a mind power saint king?”
Chu Siyuan sat on the ground with his legs crossed and said, “Thanks to you, we changed the situation and defeated those Luosha great beings, and for that, I’m very grateful.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “It’s not an easy thing to get a thank-you from Master Chu.”
Chu Siyuan’s eyes popped, “I’m always like this. I can distinguish between kindness and hatred.”
“If you don’t have anything else to say, I’ll head now.” Zhang Ruochen shrugged his shoulders.
“Wait.”
Chu Siyuan stopped him and said, “You’ve seen how powerful those Luosha marquises are, and their targets seem to be you and our girl Nalan, and they’ll definitely make another attack next time. You’re far from enough to fight them alone. How about us teaming up to destroy them?”
“Not interested.”
Zhang Ruochen walked toward the forest with his hands behind his back.
Zhang Ruochen wanted to crush Lord Lingquan and the others, but he didn’t want to get too involved with the monks from Kunlun’s Field, especially when there were working for the empress.
If it weren’t for his friends.h.i.+p with Saint Lady, he wouldn’t have come.
Zhang Ruochen stopped walking after getting to a secret region, and he started to ponder how to fight Lord Lingquan and the Luosha marquises he led.
It was indeed very difficult for him to fight them alone.
Carnivorous Holy Flower was only strong enough to fight one first marquis, which meant he needed to find other alliances.
“Master, my second fruit has matured, and my power will surge if I can combine it with my real body,” Carnivorous Holy Flower said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I remember you telling me that your second fruit is your flesh body?”
“That’s right. If I can integrate my second fruit, I’ll have the body of a human being,” Carnivorous Holy Flower said.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “How long will it take you to achieve that?”
“Around a month.”
“Okay, then you should get into the s.p.a.ce crystal to refine yourself. Form your human body as quickly as possible.”
Zhang Ruochen put Carnivorous Holy Flower back in the s.p.a.ce crystal, then he picked up Abyss Ancient Sword and walked into the forest by himself, embarking on a journey of hunting.
