Chapter 2206 - Charging All The Way Towards Death

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Outside Kunlun, the space became extremely unstable and shook incessantly. The power of nothingness seeped out and was gradually eroding this starry sky.

The cause of it was due to the large-scale divine war between the Celestial Court and the Infernal Court.

After fighting in the void for a long time, even powerful gods would feel overwhelmed. The slightest carelessness would cause the harmful energy to corrode them.

This time, Wargod Bian Zhuang and Lord of Fane of Truth were leading the Celestial Court. Their formation was extremely powerful. From the very beginning, they had a considerable advantage.

Furthermore, they had killed the gods of the Infernal Court.

As a result, the gods of the Infernal Court began to retreat after a series of fierce battles.

With the gods of Celestial Court obstructing them, even if they locked onto the spatial coordinates of the Saturn Peach Tree, it would be very difficult for Infernal Court to succeed.

Lord of Fane of Truth was very angry and released all of its suppression. Her Divine Physique became larger than a planet as its vast divine force turned into a nebula that surrounded her.

Billions of Precepts of Truth flew out from the Lord of Fane of Truth and interweaved with each other. They quickly turned into an incomparably large chaosverse with countless galaxies flowing within.

Huang Tian’s eyes froze at the sight of it. He hurriedly released his Precept of Truth and condensed his Realm-frame of Truth.

Like the Lord of Fane of Truth, he was a peerless genius who cultivated the Path of Truth. He condensed the rarely seen—Boundless Universe, a form of Realm-frame of Truth.

BOOM!

The two vast Realm-frames of Truth like chaosverses collided head-on.

On the surface, the two Realm-frames of Truth did not seem to be very different.

However, when they collided, the Realm-frame of Truth that Huang Tian condensed immediately revealed a flaw as massive cracks appeared.

BANG!

Countless stars exploded within Huang Tian’s Realm-frame of Truth. The entire chaosverse was rapidly collapsing, and the situation was irreversible.

“Not good.”

Huang Tian’s heart sank, and the pressure doubled.

Immediately, Huang Tian raised his stone ax and released his majestic divine force to block in front of him.

Boom

Huang Tian’s Realm-frame of Truth completely exploded, and the terrifying power drowned his divine body.

Although he was the Envoy of Truth and had 1% of the Canon of Truth, the Realm-frame of Truth he condensed was also the best. However, compared to the Lord of Fane of Truth, his achievements in the Path of Truth were undoubtedly far inferior.

Under the suppression of the Lord of Fane of Truth’s Realm-frame of Truth, Huang Tian was still severely injured even when he blocked the attack with the stone ax. Half of his extremely hard stone body was shattered, and the outcome had already been decided.

“You betrayed your master, your ancestor, the Fane of Truth, and the Celestial Court. Huang Tian, you must pay the price for this.” The Lord of Fane of Truth looked down at the suppressed Huang Tian and her eyes were cold and resolute.

The Lord of Fane of Truth stretched out a hand as she spoke. It was enormous and contained a galaxy within it. As the galaxy revolved, it released a terrifying power that pressed down on Huang Tian.

Huang Tian’s pupils constricted as he felt an extremely great threat.

“Merge my shattered physique.” Huang Tian let out a roar.

Immediately, his damaged stone body merged with the stone ax.

The stone ax was originally one with Huang Tian. The two were born from the same source. When they merged, they could unleash their might to the fullest.

However, very few people could force the tyrant Huang Tian to fuse with the stone ax.

Right now, he chose to do this not for a bloody battle but to escape. The Lord of Fane of Truth was ridiculously strong, and she was not someone he could fight against currently.

Boom

The stone ax released a monstrous divine force, breaking free from the suppression of the Realm-frame of Truth in one move.

At the same time, the stone ax shattered the void, pierced through the galaxy, and flew out of the void.

“You won’t get away from me.”

The Lord of Fane of Truth shouted and grabbed the stone ax with her outstretched palm.

However, the stone ax’s speed was shockingly fast, and in an instant, he escaped beyond the vast starry sky.

BOOM! BOOM!

In the starry sky, the planets exploded one after another, unable to withstand the impact of the soaring stone ax. Ever since Huang Tian was born, he has rarely been chased after in such a pathetic manner.

The Lord of Fane of Truth took a step forward and followed closely behind a stone ax. She did not intend to let Huang Tian off so easily.

And seeing Huang Tian escape, the gods of the Infernal Court lost their fighting spirit and retreated.

At this point, the divine war had come to an end.

Some of the gods of Infernal Court had fallen. Thus, the Celestial Court had claimed triumph.

…

In the Rainbow Pavilion.

Zhang Ruochen was furious. Holding the Imperial Ruler, he shrunk the ground into an inch. He took a step forward and arrived at the spatial hole.

However, the elites of the ten clans of Infernal Court were falling back to the Voidbridge of Chaos and rushed to the spatial hole on the other side.

Wan Xin was the fastest. In the blink of an eye, he was nowhere to be seen.

Yan Wushen stood on the Voidbridge of Chaos and blocked Zhang Ruochen’s way.

“Yan Wushen, you dare to block me? Do you think I can’t kill you? Those who stand in my way today shall die,” said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were cold. He waved the Imperial Ruler and hacked at Yan Wushen.

“Then let’s Fight!” said Yan Wushen.

Yan Wushen’s eyes were serious. With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen powerful weapons flew out to meet the Imperial Ruler.

These weapons belonged to the three clans that Zhang Ruochen had killed. Yan Wushen kept them. Each weapon was incredibly powerful. At the very least, they were comparable to a Regal Artifact. There were even several that were comparable to a Supreme Artifact.

No matter what, he had to buy time for the cultivators of the Infernal Court to retreat.

Even if Zhang Ruochen was in control of the Divine Artifact, he had nothing to fear.

Crack

The moment Zhang Rucohen swung the Imperial Ruler, there was a cracking sound. Then, it turned into bright fragments and flew out.

In front of a Divine Artifact, even a Regal Artifact was no different from a piece of scrap metal.

After Zhang Rucohen destroyed seven weapons in a row, his attack was blocked.

Rumble

At this moment, the Voidbridge of Chaos beneath them shook violently. It quickly crumbled and turned into nothingness.

That was because the gods of the Infernal Court had retreated. The Voidbridge of Chaos had lost the god’s control.

However, when Yan Wushen was blocking Zhang Ruochen, the top-notch Saint Kings of the ten clans of Infernal Court had all retreated from the void. There were no more casualties.

Yan Wushen used the dimension treasure to protect himself. He controlled the remaining soldiers and retreated quickly.

The erosive power of the void was terrifying. Even the dimension treasure had cracked after holding on for a few breaths.

Yan Wushen’s thick brows furrowed. He knew he couldn’t stay in the void anymore and said, “According to my agreement with Asurendra Samay, I should have defeated you completely and brought your body back to the Infernal Court for it to possess. Unfortunately, you have the Imperial Ruler and I can’t do anything to you.”

“Since Wan Xin took Chi Kongyue away, it means that he has decided to replace you with Chi Kongyue.”

Leaving these words, Yan Wushen took out a shuttle-shaped dimension treasure and shattered the space behind him. He leaped and left the void.

Yan Wushen told the secret of Asurendra Samay because he wanted to lure Zhang Ruochen to the Infernal Court. He felt that the fight between him and Zhang Ruochen could only be decided when he reached the Supreme Sainthood.

If Zhang Ruochen went to the Infernal Court, they would have more chances to fight.

“Zhang Ruochen, you are my sharpening stone. With you, I can become stronger.” Yan Wushen’s voice drifted over and echoed in the void.

…

“Asurendra Samay… possession…” Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were filled with blood capillaries as if he was about to be possessed.

It turned out that Wan Xin had captured Chi Kongyue to give him to a god in the Infernal Court for possession.

The result of possession meant that Chi Kongyue’s Saint Soul would be devoured, leaving only a soulless vessel.

Thinking of all this, no matter how steady his state of mind was, it became chaotic.

Zhang Ruochen gritted his teeth and said repeatedly, “No, no… it’s impossible. Nothing must happen to Kongyue. Nothing must happen to him.”

Boom

Zhang Ruochen waved the Imperial Ruler and forcefully broke open the space. He rushed out of the void and appeared in the air outside the Central Imperial City. He suddenly fell to the ground, sinking a large area of the ground around him.

Even though Wan Xin had escaped far away, Zhang Ruochen still locked onto his Qi at the first moment.

“Wan Xin!” Zhang Ruochen let out an angry roar. The space shook and the ground shook. He chased after him quickly.

Outside the Central Imperial City, the cultivators of the Infernal Court had made all sorts of arrangements. There were hundreds and thousands of arrays to defend and seal the space. They couldn’t use the Great Dimensional Shift.

“Zhang Ruochen is a daredevil, he managed to chase us until we were out of the city!”

“Damn it. Does he think he’s invincible? Outside the city is the camp of the Sainthood Army of the Infernal Court. There are many powerhouses. How can we let him be so presumptuous?”

“Humph, he’s courting death. So what if he has the Divine Artifact? He’ll still die today.”

The powerhouses of the Infernal Court who had just escaped from the Rainbow Pavilion all looked at Zhang Ruochen with murderous intent.

In the Rainbow Pavilion, many of the Infernal Court elites were killed by Zhang Ruochen and some had to run away, leading to the failure of the mission. Everyone had been holding their anger, and now they could vent it out.

“Let’s kill Zhang Ruochen.”

The leaders ordered at the same time.

All of a sudden, the cultivators of the Infernal Court attacked Zhang Ruochen with weapons, saint techniques, talismans, and so on.

The Precepts and Saint Qi of heaven and earth within a radius of 10,000 meters became restless, and a terrifying storm formed.

A Supreme Saint would be beaten to death, let alone a Saint King.

Zhang Ruochen flew in the air, and his body emitted monstrous killing intent. He poured all his Saint Qi into the Imperial Ruler and hacked forward one foot with all his strength.

He only wanted to save Chi Kongyue now. No matter who stood in front of him, he had to split them open.

The Imperial Ruler released a dazzling jade divine light. Billions of Divine Mark appeared clearly, releasing a vast and mighty divine force like the ocean.

Boom

The Imperial Ruler’s divine force disintegrated all the cultivators of Infernal Court’s attacks.

However, Zhang Ruochen still suffered a big impact. His body couldn’t help but fall back. The Blood Qi in him surged violently, and he spat out a mouthful of Saint Blood.

It was said that two fists couldn’t beat four hands. What’s more, Zhang Ruochen was facing tens of millions of Sainthood soldiers from the Infernal Court. He was no different from a moth flying to a flame.

“All Array Masters, set up a killing formation and block the way forward.”

A Heavenly Lord of the Asura gave the order.

He knew why Zhang Ruochen had killed his way out of the city, so he wouldn’t let Zhang Ruochen catch up no matter what.

The elites of the Infernal Court who had participated in the Battle of the Rainbow Pavilion also understood Zhang Ruochen’s intention. So they rushed to his front, blocked his way, and kept attacking. Now was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to kill Zhang Ruochen, the great enemy of the Infernal Court.

With Zhang Ruochen’s attainments, no one could hold him back if he chose to retreat. No matter how many cultivators of the Infernal Court there were.

However, if he continued to move forward, he would only die.

A large group of Array Masters rushed out of the camp of the Infernal Court and set up the formation at the speed of light.

The Infernal Court did send ten High-Saint Array Masters, but in reality, it was far more than that. As for the Array Saint Master, there were even more.

The killing formation that hundreds of Array Masters could set up must be extremely powerful. Even a Supreme Saint could easily get killed.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were full of determination. He had no fear at all. He stepped on the air and moved forward.

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Ruochen was surrounded by a large Saint army of the Infernal Court. There were shadow clones everywhere. They were impenetrable. The sound of killing filled the whole world.

With the leaders of the various clans as prominent figures, they formed powerful battle formations. They could attack and defend.

Everyone was afraid of the Imperial Ruler. They didn’t dare to fight it alone.

After all, when they were in the Rainbow Pavilion, the top-notch elites of the ten clans had seen Zhang Ruochen kill seven elites with the Imperial Ruler. Even Yan Wushen had almost been killed.

Boom 

Zhang Ruochen sent hundreds of Saints of the Infernal Court flying with a swing. Their bodies were still in the air and they turned into ashes and were all destroyed.

However, Zhang Ruochen also paid the price.

Jiang Lin and Tian Xuan combined with the ten thousand Saint Realm Army of the Corpusian to form a grayish-brown blade. They broke through Zhang Ruochen’s defense and slashed at his waist. Blood gushed out like a fountain.

This slash almost cut Zhang Ruochen in half.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t fall. He stood up again and sent Jiang Lin, Tian Xuan, and the ten thousand Corpusian armies flying. Thousands of them turned into corpses and fell from the sky to the ground and broke into pieces.

But soon, more saints of the Infernal Court rushed up and blocked Zhang Ruochen’s path.

The path of retreat was completely sealed.

Shink!

Zhang Ruochen charged 300 meters forward, leaving behind a trail of corpses and blood.

More wounds appeared on Zhang Ruochen’s body. His chest was pierced, his ribs almost shattered, and his organs were torn.

His eyes were still fixed on the direction where Wan Xin had escaped.

“Kongyue…”

Zhang Ruochen shouted. There was a trace of sadness in his voice.

There was blood flowing in his hair because his skull had been shattered. However, he did not look dispirited at all. Instead, his fighting spirit burned. His killing intent soared to the sky as he continued to swing the Imperial Ruler forward.

The commotion outside the city was so big that it naturally attracted the attention of many elites.

Tens of millions of Saint soldiers of the Celestial Court had gathered in the imperial city. Only a small portion of them had rushed to the Rainbow Pavilion. The top-notch elites were only limited to those who were friends with Zhang Ruochen.

At this moment, many leaders of the Macroworld had rushed to the city wall to look from afar.

“What happened? Why is Zhang Ruochen frenzied?”

“It’s divine force! Is Zhang Ruochen holding the legendary Imperial Ruler that can measure the cultivation of Saint Kings, Supreme Saints, and gods?”

“Does Zhang Ruochen think that he can fight against tens of millions of Saint soldiers of the Infernal Court with just a Divine Artifact? If that’s the case, why would the Celestial Court send armies from all over the world?”

“Zhang Ruochen has been surrounded by the army of the Infernal Court. It’s too late for him to retreat now.”

…

The outside world wasn’t clear about what had happened in the Rainbow Pavilion.

Prince Tianpeng, the leader of the Demon God Realm, frowned and whispered, “If Zhang Ruochen dies, it will have a great impact on the morale of the Celestial Court.”

He was considering whether he should help at this time.

With Zhang Ruochen’s means, if someone helped him, he would still have a chance to retreat.

However, to do this, he needed to rely on the cooperation of many elites. Even if Prince Tianpeng wanted to, others might not be willing.

If he wanted to save Zhang Ruochen, it was not a small matter. Many people would die. The leaders of any world had to consider.

Zhou Yu was standing on the city wall at the moment, with a fierce gleam in his eyes, “Zhang Ruochen, you’re asking for death. You can’t blame anyone. You killed many geniuses of the sect of Heavenly Realm. Even if you don’t die at the hands of the elites of the Infernal Court, the sect of Heavenly Realm will never let you go.”

No matter what other people thought, Zhou Yu was hoping that Zhang Ruochen would be killed soon.

As long as Zhang Ruochen was alive, he would be a great threat to him.

After knowing that the plan to kill Zhang Ruochen had failed, Zhou Yu began to worry that Zhang Ruochen would come to settle the score with him.

Zhou Yu was undoubtedly happy to see the current situation.
