Chapter 1986 - One

Name:God Emperor Author:
“What? He actually blocked my full blow with his technique of space?”

Cang Long was shocked and felt incredulous.

It was not that he had never seen the means available to a cultivator of space. But forget one of a Greater Precept World levels, even a Precept Dominion, Heaven’s Reach, or even a Path’s Anterior space technique might not be as terrifying as the ones displayed by Zhang Ruochen.

The Path of Space was an eternal path, and it was extremely difficult to even comprehend a single space precept.

Many space cultivators of the Greater Precept-World-realm often only had thousands of space precepts, and only be reaching Precept Dominion realm would their space precepts break through into the ten of thousands.

However, Zhang Ruochen had not even culminated his Precept Dominion, and the number of his space precepts had reached 70 thousand. By the time he fully comprehends the precept of space inside the Secret Tome of Time and Space, it would not be a difficult thing for his space precepts to reach a hundred thousand of them.

“As expected of the Scion of Time and Space, his space techniques are so terrifying.” Lady Lingyan could not help but to exclaim.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen gaining the upper hand, she was undoubtedly very happy. After all, she did not want to see Zhang Ruochen die in Shengming City.

Inside Shengming City, a powerhouse stood on an extremely high pavilion as he watched Zhang Ruochen’s battle with Cang Long from a distance.

The person’s figure was blurry, with the space around his body being faintly distorted, making it impossible for someone to see him clearly.

What was certain that this person was without a doubt a space cultivator.

When he saw Zhang Ruochen resisted the full might of Cang Long’s blow with the Dimensional Collapse, a bizarre glint appeared in the person’s eyes.

“Zhang Ruochen had never entered the Fane of Space to train before, yet his Path of Space could reach such a level. The inheritance left behind by Saint Monk Xumi must be really great.” The space cultivator hiding in the dark said.

In his hand was an Exquisite Dimensional Orb, and one could faintly see many figures inside it struggling desperately but were unable to break free.





Outside Shengming City, Cang Long struck again, using both the immortal black dragon claw and the Hidden Moon Saber at the same time to maximize his strength without any reservation.

“Cang Long, is that a dragon claw? More like a chicken claw I say, with no offensive power at all. Even my claws are sharper than yours.” The Head Rat jeered out loud.

Back then, people from the Fane of Youshen dared to ambush him, and drove him into the Dungeon of Ice. He had always remembered this grudge, and even if he could not beat Cang Long, he would still want to piss the latter off to death using words.

“Dimensional Distortion.”

Zhang Ruochen calmly unleashed his space techniques.

A massive distortion suddenly appeared in the space before him, causing the blade light of the Hidden Moon Saber to reverse its direction and slash at Cang Long’s immortal black dragon claw.

At such close range, even if Cang Long wanted to dodge, it was already too late.

BAAAMMM!!!

The blade was extremely sharp, and even if the immortal black dragon claw was extremely sturdy, a tiny crack appeared at this moment.

Upon seeing this, the Head Rat could not help to clutch his stomach and laughed. “Cang Long, you want to eat chicken feet that badly? You actually cut yourself! Oh god that’s hilarious!”

“Go to hell.”

Cang Long shuddered in fury as he forcefully deflected the blade light on the immortal black dragon claw towards the Head Rat.

The Head Rat shrank and instantly escaped into the ground. His speed was blindingly fast.

BOOM!!

The blade light smashed onto the ground, and even thought there was barely any power left, it still left a hundred-meter-long crack on the ground that ran several meters deep.

One need to know, the ground outside Shengming City is extremely solid, and any ordinary attacks could not cause any obvious damage at all.

The next moment, the Head Rat popped out from the ground and patted his chest as he said proudly. “Cang Long, you are still ages away from killing me. Just you wait, Lord Chen will lob your head off soon enough!”

“Cang Long, was you to one who encouraged Shang Ziyan to attack Shengming City?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Cang Long let out sneer and said. “Yes, that was me. This is the price for touching my woman!”

“In that case, die!”

Zhang Ruochen gaze became extremely sharp as a terrifying killing intent exuded from his body.

His sword soul rushed out of his body in an instant, grabbing the Ancient Abyssal Blade as it ignored the distance and instantly appeared near Cang Long.

“You think the same move will work on me twice?” Cang Long sneered.

With the Hidden Moon Saber in his hand, Cang Long was fearless as he used tens of millions of saint path precepts to form a powerful Precept Dominion as it firmly guarding him.

With the lesson of the past, he will not be harmed by Zhang Ruochen’s Swordsmanship of Time this time.

The sword soul swung the sword, and instantly caught over hundreds of Marks of Time as they imprinted themselves in the space around Cang Long.

The Imaginary Time Domain was successfully constructed, and for the area enveloped by the domain, time instantly went into a standstill.

The sword light flashed, and Cang Long’s head flew high into the air as blood spurted all over.

“How could this be…”

Cang Long’s eyes opened wide as one final thought appeared in his mind.

Immediately, the consciousness faded from Cang Long’s eyes as his saint soul was quickly annihilated.

“What just happened? How did Cang Long get beheaded?”

“It’s the Swordsmanship of Time, it must be the legendary Swordsmanship of Time!”

“Zhang Ruochen is a master of time and space. Not only he can control space, but he could also control the power of time. I did not expect the Swordsmanship of Time to be so terrifying that Cang Long did not had time to react at all.”

“With such an unfathomable sword technique, how does one guard against it?”



Seeing Cang Long getting beheaded, all of the spectators were equally stunned. The look of awe gradually appeared in their gaze at Zhang Ruochen.

Atop the city tower, the expression of another powerhouse changed drastically as the figure took a step back, clearly a little afraid of Zhang Ruochen’s Swordsmanship of Time.

“Lord Chen is mighty, the Swordsmanship of Time is invincible!” The Head Rat cheered.

Mu Lingxi heaved a sigh of relief, as her tensed heart could not finally relax.

Even she did not anticipate that Zhang Ruochen’s Swordmanship of Time had gotten to this level. It was even more unfathomable compared to when he found Saint King Xing Yun.

With Cang Long’s death, the Hidden Moon Saber wanted to escape.

Zhang Ruochen took out his Secret Tome of Time and Space and activate it, forming a multi-dimensional space as it wrapped the Hidden Moon Saber within it.

Immediately after, he closed the Secret Tome of Time and Space, and completely locked the Hidden Moon Saber down.

A King’s Weapon may be powerful, but after losing its master, it was literally a toothless tiger.

With a grasp, Zhang Ruochen ripped the Meritorious Armor of Flowing Light from Cang Long’s body and tossed it to Mu Lingxi.

Cang Long had entered the top ten thousand of the Saint King Merit List for more than five hundred years now, and the Fane of Merits will no longer take back this armor, and neither will they investigate if the armor was snatched away.

The defensive power of the Meritorious Armor of Flowing Light was very strong and could unleash speed thousand times the speed of sound. With Mu Lingxi putting it on, her safety was much more assured.

Immediately after, Zhang Ruochen put away Cang Long’s corpse. The latter must have much good items on his body, but Zhang Ruochen currently do not have the time to go through it.

“Zhang Ruochen, you sure are bold, daring to kill Cang Long.” Another powerhouse on the tower shouted loudly.

A cold glint flickered in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as he looked at the powerhouse and said icyly. “Not only do I dare to kill Cang Long, but I also dare to kill you.”

A look of fear appeared on the powerhouse’s face, but he still remained calm. With a wave of his hand, the city gates opened, revealing the scene inside the city.

Tens of thousands of the old Shengming cadres were kneeling behind the gate, almost all of them bloodied, and none of them were unharmed.

All of these old Shengming cadres were cultivators of various cultivation levels, with a Saint King among them.

The Saint King was someone Zhang Ruochen was very familiar with, he was a general under Prince Mingjiang, Yan Kaixuan, a person who had once offended Zhang Ruochen.

After the recovery of Kunlun Realm, Yan Kaixuan had obtained many opportunities, and his cultivation base climbed and finally stepped into the realm of a Saint King.

However, he was not too strong, and had only reached the realm of a Two-Step Saint King.

“Zhang Ruochen, you dare to make any rash movements, I will assure you that all of these people will die.” The powerhouse on the tower sneered.

With tens of thousands of old Shengming cadres in his hand, he was not at all afraid of Zhang Ruochen now.

“Your highness, just leave us and run!”

Seeing Zhang Ruochen outside the city, Yan Kaixuan immediately yelled.

Yan Kaixuan was in a very miserable state now. He had lost an arm, with several holes on his body as saint blood constantly flowed out of it.

“Your Highness! Being able to see you once again before we die, we have no more regrets!”

“We were useless and will no longer be able to fight with Your Highness on the battlefield again.”

“I have no regrets joining Shengming in this life and hope I will be reborn as a citizen of Shengming in my next. Your Highness, run, and avenge us later!”



The old Shengming cadres spoke one after another, all of them exhorting Zhang Ruochen to leave.

There were many Heavenly Realm elites inside the city, and how could Zhang Ruochen deal with them alone?

They can die, but Zhang Ruochen must live.

As long as Zhang Ruochen was alive, the flame of Shengming will not go out, and the day it would burn bright again will come.

Seeing so many old Shengming cadres kneeling on the ground, all with mutilated bodies, a raging flame of anger instantly rose in Zhang Ruochen’s heart.

“How dare you… how dare you do this to my people of Shengming?”

Zhang Ruochen’s body trembled, his voice was low like a rumbling thunder.

The powerhouse on the tower laughed. “What? Are you angry? You want to save them? I will give you a chance to fight me, of course, you cannot use your techniques of time and space. As long as you can last a quarter of an hour, I will let all of them go!”

“If you dare not, I will kill them all right now!”

Obviously, he was very afraid of Zhang Ruochen’s techniques of time and space and was not confident he could fight against that.

Yet, he wanted to take Zhang Ruochen down, and earn himself credit, so he could only use this method.

“Yan Ba is bloody insidious to come up with such a shameless method to fight Zhang Ruochen.”

“It’s said that Zhang Ruochen is probably the killer of Yan Wang, and Yan Wang is Yan Ba’s most beloved nephew. How can Yan Ba forgive Zhang Ruochen for such a massive blood feud?”

“Yan Ba had been cultivating for more than 1,300 yearas and had long reached the realm of Path’s Anterior. His cultivation is unfathomable, and is a bit stronger than Cang Long, a top powerhouse of the Yinyang Realm. Under normal circumstances, Yan Ba woud be a tough foe for Zhang Ruochen’s, without the techniques of time and space, Zhang Ruochen’s defeat is almost assured.”

Many of the powerhouses watching the battle shook their heads, all of them did not expect Yan Ba to be so sinister, so shameless.
