Chapter 1691: Battling King Yan and Queen Lian
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
A piece of saint jade could absorb Holy Qi and Sun-Moon Essence, and ingest saint medicine to reach the Supreme Saint Realm but not have much combat ability. This was hard to believe.
“There must be some relics like the turtle sh.e.l.l shard in the Tao Garden,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Couldn’t that emperor saint jade cultivate from that?”
A bit conceited, the Amazing Little Taoist said, “Do you think that every natural being is as smart as me? Most of them are actually very stupid.”
Kaboom!
In the center of the eight divine bones, the white jade rabbit crashed around, trying to escape.
It was frighteningly fast. With Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, he could only see a blur.
When the rabbit crashed onto the formation from the eight divine bones, the bones would shake violently. King Yan and Queen Lian also retreated.
However, the rabbit didn’t seem to have any tricks other than cras.h.i.+ng. It couldn’t break free from the formation at all. Instead, the eight divine bones contracted, leaving fewer and fewer s.p.a.ce for the rabbit to move in.
King Yan and Queen Lian grew excited.
As long as they suppressed this emperor saint jade, they’d be able to make it submit completely. By then, they could transfer some techniques and spells to become its teacher. It would mean that they had a Supreme Saint fighter.
Of course, even if they couldn’t make it submit, the emperor saint jade was also top-quality material for making Absolute Saint weapons. It was very precious.
Even Supreme Saints wanted the emperor saint jade. How could Zhang Ruochen not be tempted?
However, King Yan and Queen Lian had an immeasurable amount of saint jade. Even if he attacked secretly, it was impossible to injure them severely. Plus, even if he succeeded, it wasn’t easy to suppress the white jade rabbit either.
It was too fast. Once it broke free from the eight divine bones, no one here would be able to catch up to it.
While Zhang Ruochen was thinking of the best plan, the Amazing Little Taoist rushed out of the broken wall and yelled at King Yan and Queen Lian, “Let go of that rabbit!”
Zhang Ruochen was taken aback. He started cursing inside.
He’d planned on using spatial power for a sneak attack on King Yan and Queen Lian. If he could injure one severely, dealing with the other would be much easier.
Who would’ve guessed that the Amazing Little Taoist was so childish?
He made a gesture at Zhang Ruochen that meant “I got this” and sent a telepathic message. “Don’t worry. I already saw through their cultivations. They’re both peak sixth step or in the beginning of the seventh step Saint King Realm. Nothing to be afraid of. You just go take over the eight divine bones. After I take care of them, I’ll naturally be able to take control of the emperor saint jade. I got everything. Just do what I say.”
The Amazing Little Taoist was extremely confident. He strode toward King Yan and Queen Lian with the confidence of having control over everything.
King Yan’s eyes were like two fireb.a.l.l.s. He recognized the Amazing Little Taoist’s true form and immediately smiled. “Ancient saint medicine of 100,000 years. This is quite rare. If I ingest and refine it, my cultivation will instantly break past the bottleneck and reach the seventh step. It’s not impossible for me to try for the eighth step in a short period either.
“Control the Yin Yang Life and Death Formation. I’ll go take it down.”
Queen Lian scanned the ruins and said, “Be careful. Earlier, Yu Wenjing had called out for help. A mere 100,000-year-old saint medicine won’t make it impossible for Yu Wenjing to escape. There might be another strong figure hiding nearby.”
King Yan nodded solemnly. Then his muscular three-meter-tall body rushed toward the Amazing Little Taoist, ready for a fast battle.
The Amazing Little Taoist ground his teeth in anger. “You look down on me! You’re dead! No one in the entire world can save you now…”
His voice cut off abruptly and terror appeared on his face.
King Yan, who was diving over, had nine types of aggressive fire coming out of him. He turned this place into a fire domain. Walking out of the flames, King Yan was like a horrible demon with a terrifyingly strong aura.
The Amazing Little Taoist clearly had a higher cultivation, but he actually felt suppressed.
Kaboom!
The moment that he was dazed, King Yan struck with a handprint. It fell from the sky, crus.h.i.+ng down on his head.
“Mountain-Moving Print.”
The Amazing Little Taoist quickly cast a mid-level palm spell. He pushed up with both hands, clas.h.i.+ng violently with King Yan’s palm print.
Kaboom!
The ground under the flaming handprint cracked open. A lot of dust flew out.
King Yan was a bit surprised. “You’re actually skilled in a mid-level spell and blocked my palm. This is interesting.”
The Amazing Little Taoist pushed up with all his might and couldn’t move. It was like holding up a collapsed sky. He was speechless. This king wasn’t even a seventh step Saint King. His combat ability was too crazy!
“Refine!”
Nine types of flames spewed out of King Yan’s palm. This included Divine Fire Jingmie at the official flames level.
Even Zhang Ruochen feared this level of Divine Fire Jingmie, because his was still at the common level.
No wonder he’s the leader of his generation in Yin and Yang Field. He’s indeed very strong. The Amazing Little Taoist is at the seventh step, but he was crushed with one move. Zhang Ruochen shook his head.
Of course, the Amazing Little Taoist’s physique and techniques were special. He wasn’t an ordinary being and he wasn’t any weaker than King Yan. Thus, it was mostly because of his lack of experience that he was suppressed.
King Yan had walked on countless bodies to reach his current level.
The Amazing Little Taoist compared the emperor saint jade to a tiger without teeth, claws, or battle intent. But even if he himself had teeth, claws, and battle intent, he was still a tiger who’d never preyed on anyone. If he reached a truly strong figure, he could only get beaten.
“Save me…” he cried out. “He’s going to turn me into medicine soup!”
Zhang Ruochen pulled out his Clear Sky Bow and s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow, aiming at King Yan.
King Yan sensed murderous intent and stared at the faraway wall.
Boom!
Behind the wall, a beam of white light flew out with explosive sounds. It went straight for King Yan’s forehead.
He extended a barrel-sized arm, fingers spread out. White fire poured out of his palm and blocked the s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow. He swung his arm and the arrow flew out sideways. It landed in the ruins with a thud.
King Yan is so powerful. He caught the s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow so easily. Seems like I still have quite a distance from him. Zhang Ruochen sighed.
“Your arrow isn’t even qualified to scratch me. Why don’t you show yourself? Do you want me to invite you out?”
As soon as he finished, an extremely weak feeling arose within him. His Holy Qi couldn’t run smoothly and he couldn’t use power. His knees felt weak too.
That s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow had three time prints carved in it. Zhang Ruochen had created it before to kill the Thousand Star Maiden.
King Yan had stopped the arrow easily, but of the three time prints, one fell onto his body. It cut off close to 100 years of his lifespan.
The Amazing Little Taoist felt the pressure above him lessen. He immediately yelled, “Sky-Turning Print.”
Many Rules of Palm Way combined with the palm technique and hit King Yan’s palm, sending him flying back. Blood flowed out of King Yan’s arm.
Whoos.h.!.+
A purple vine flew from Queen Lian’s wrist. It wrapped around King Yan’s waist and pulled him back. “What’s wrong?”
“My saint soul became weak, my spirit has fallen, and my blood has wilted.”
King Yan had fought hundreds of battles and was very wise. He already guessed what the problem was. “That arrow is strange. You can’t get close to it.”
Behind the wall, Zhang Ruochen had already nocked the arrow and pointed it at Queen Lian.
Tw.a.n.g!
The bow sounded.
The s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow transformed into a beam of light and instantly arrived before King Yan and Queen Lian.
Unable to focus on the divine bones, Queen Lian grabbed King Yan’s arm. She immediately used a physical technique to avoid the s.h.i.+ning Sun Arrow.
Boom!
The trapped white jade rabbit took this chance to crash against a divine bone. It actually created a crack.
“No, stop it!” King Yan said.
Queen Lian flew over immediately.
Sadly, she was late. A beam of white light shot out of the formation. It swept up a gale that flashed past her.
The white jade rabbit escaped!
“Hurry and fight back!” Zhang Ruochen yelled.
“Don’t worry. You stop those two strong figures for a moment. I have more than enough ways to take down that emperor saint jade.”
The Amazing Little Taoist pressed on the ground. Purple light instantly poured out. “Universal Net, up!”
It was another detailed mid-level saint spell with at least 10,000 rules.
The Amazing Little Taoist raised his arms and a large purple net flew up from the ground. It caught the white jade rabbit that wanted to escape.
“Haha, do you see? This is my true level.” He glanced at Zhang Ruochen.
“You dare to steal the treasure that I have my eyes on? Die!”
King Yan circulated his Holy Qi and recovered. Flas.h.i.+ng as a streak of firelight, he struck with a fist print and attacked the Amazing Little Taoist.
He added Rules of Truth into this punch, so it was countless times stronger than before.
Before the fist print could land on the Amazing Little Taoist, he already let out a scream and was sent flying by the force. That tiny body actually had cracks.
King Yan hadn’t used the Rules of Truth and could already defeat the Amazing Little Taoist. After using it, their gap was even larger.
The Amazing Little Taoist shut his eyes tightly. His purple glow faded and it was unknown whether he was alive or not.
