Supreme Saint Manjian’s heart was filled with hatred. He struggled with all his might, trying to break free from Supreme Saint Yanhong’s suppression and self-destructing his Saint physique.

Even if he could not die with her, he had to die so that Zhang Ruochen would not have to worry about him.

BOOM!

Supreme Saint Yanhong pushed him back into the cliff wall with a palm across the air. She suppressed Supreme Saint Manjian firmly. Her beautiful face made people feel exceptionally ferocious.

“Just watch carefully. Don’t dream of dying.”

She smiled and pursed her red lips.

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, Mistress Fireborn, and Lord Sinluo were all taken aback at the brilliant starry sky. They had not anticipated Zhang Ruochen’s power. He had destroyed a Ghost city and forced Xu to use the Supreme Artifact.

“Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen has only broken one shackle. I can’t imagine how powerful he would be if he reached the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm,” Lord Sinluo said.

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei nodded and said, “We have made up our minds to kill Zhang Ruochen at all costs. It’s a very wise decision.”

Only Pan Ruo remained silent. Her eyes were locked on the Ghost’s home planet.

At that moment, every cultivator in the Infernal Court and the Great Battlefield of Merits looked up. Some people clench their fists. Their hearts were on the verge of bursting out of their bodies. Zhang Ruochen was causing them concern.

Some were ecstatic. They laughed heartily.

“The power of a Supreme Artifact in the hands of a Supreme Saint is so terrifying.”

“In the same realm, a Supreme Saint with a Supreme Artifact can instantly kill other Supreme Saints. There’s no escape. If the Supreme Artifact locks on, even space will be frozen.”

“That time, Zhang Ruochen…. sigh…”

‘When Zhang Ruochen charged into the Ghost’s home planet alone, many cultivators were pessimistic.

When that moment arrived, they still couldn’t accept it. They closed their eyes silently. They couldn’t bear to continue watching.

Caged Zhang Ruochen remained calm in the center of the Supreme Power. He slapped his waist with the Violet Gourd. The gourd swooped down and landed in his palm.

Whoosh

As Saint Qi and Divine Qi poured out of Zhang Ruochen’s palm, the Dimensional Inscription at the mouth of the gourd and the Supreme Inscription inside were activated at the same time. They exploded with a more powerful aura.

Zhang Ruochen’s body shone with golden light. The gourd spun slowly in his hand. It floated like a celestial being.

The Golden Sun of Destruction had merged completely with the gourd. It carried the same Supreme Inscription as the gourd.

‘The difference was that the Supreme Inscription appeared inside and wouldn’t be exposed.

Whoosh

36 million Dimensional Inscriptions interweaved into a circular array hundreds of miles in diameter. It appeared above Zhang Ruochen’s head like a blossoming flower.

“It’s useless. All power will be destroyed in front of the Supreme Artifact.” Zhang Ruochen laughed deeply and activated the Supreme Power he had accumulated for a long time.

suddenly, a stream of black Ghost Qi gushed out from the seven black Ghost Lotuses in the sky. It converged above Zhang Ruochen’s head and turned into a black waterfall that poured down.

The aura in the black waterfall was bone-chilling, but there were tens of thousands of thunder and lightning as thick as buckets.

The seawater under Zhang Ruochen’s feet evaporated in an instant, revealing the undersea land.

Crash

At that moment, the space within hundreds of miles of the space array suddenly collapsed, absorbing all the black waterfalls created by the Pleiades Lotus.

The world returned to calm as if nothing had happened.

Xu felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment that he could kill the Yuanhui level genius Zhang Ruochen. As a result, he couldn’t keep his cool and burst out laughing.

“Haha! Zhang Ruochen was killed by me. I must have done something great in this era… this… is impossible…” said Xu.

The laughter disappeared quickly as if someone was strangling Xu.

Xu stared thousands of miles away and saw that the sea had been completely evaporated by the Supreme Power. However, Zhang Ruochen was still floating in the air.

“How is it possible? How could the power of the Supreme Artifact disappear without a trace? Was it transferred to another place by his Power of Dimension? No, it’s impossible. With his Dimensional attainments, how could he dissolve the power of the Supreme Artifact? Why? Why?”

Xu trembled, his heart full of confusion and doubt.

Zhang Ruochen’s strangeness was beyond his understanding.

Whoosh

The Violet Gourd in Zhang Ruochen’s hand became extremely heavy. He had to use all his strength to hold it. A large amount of cold lightning surged out of the surface of the gourd. It shuttled back and forth like a dragon and snake.

Inside the gourd, flames and cold qi were circulating. They formed a huge whirlpool that transformed the Supreme Power contained in the Ghost Qi waterfall.

A moment later, Zhang Ruochen shouted coldly, “I’l give it back to you.”

The mouth of the gourd faced Xu, who was thousands of miles away.

Boom

A black Ghost Qi light column rushed out of the gourd. Countless bolts of lightning interweaved in the light column and attacked Xu, who was thousands of miles away.

The sea was separated from where the Ghost Qi light pillar passed.

Xu’s expression changed drastically. He burst out with his fastest speed and immediately fled.

However, the Ghost Qi light pillar contained a huge amount of energy. It was endless. Under Zhang Ruochen’s control, it was like a thousand-mile-long dragon chasing after him.

In the end, there was nowhere for Xu to run. He could only form the Spatial-Sea Seal to resist.

Rumble

The Spatial-Sea Seal blocked for about ten breaths before it shattered and disintegrated.

Taking advantage of the time of ten breaths, Xu successfully activated the Supreme Power of the Pleiades Lotus once again. It clashed with the beam of Ghost Qi and resolved the crisis.

Fear still lingered in Xu’s heart. He thought to himself, ‘That was close… just a little bit…”

The Ghost Qi light pillar was strong, but it traveled for tens of thousands of miles. Xu might be able to block it, but he would definitely be heavily injured.

Once Xu was heavily injured, he would lose to Zhang Ruochen.

Although Xu had been in a sorry state, he had managed to block it.

How can Zhang Ruochen’s gourd be so powerful? Can it even absorb the Supreme Power? What in the world can’t it absorb?’ Xu was extremely depressed. He gnashed his teeth in hatred.

‘What a good gourd. Is it also a Supreme Artifact? That’s not right. No Supreme Power is emanating from it’ Supreme Saint Yanhong wondered.

Supreme Saint Yanhong was very tempted and wanted to take the Violet Gourd for herself.

If Supreme Saint Yanhong had such a treasure, what was there to be afraid of in the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting?

Even powerful figures like Wujiang and Luo Shengtian would be afraid of Supreme Saint Yanhong.

Therefore, Supreme Saint Yanhong handed over the task of guarding the Supreme Saint Manjian to Ming. She turned into a pink light path and flew toward the sea area where Zhang Ruochen was.

“Let’s attack together and see how much power his gourd can take away!” Four-eyed Ghost Emperor’s roar sounded in the eastern sky of Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen looked to the east and saw a black mass of Ghost Qi rolling in heaven and earth. A huge ghost shadow was faintly revealed.

Popobawa Ghost Emperor spread his wings in the south, forming thousands of black wind pillars that connected the sky and the sea. A significant amount of seawater was swept into the sky.

‘The 330-meter-tall Primordial Ghost Emperor-Level Physique rode the waves and appeared 800 miles away in the west. He appeared to be standing in the sky, looking down on Zhang Ruochen in the basin.

Supreme Saint Yanhong stood on the sea in the north. The sea turned pink as a whole. Brilliant and beautiful bone flowers bloomed on the water’s surface, creating a sea of flowers.

They were not even 500 miles away from Zhang Ruochen. They were clearly terrified of the Violet Gourd in his hand.

Surrounded by four Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, Zhang Ruochen was naturally under a lot of pressure. He raised his head slightly to look at the sky. He was puzzled. Why hadn’t Lord Xia Yu broken the Star-Shield Grand Formation of the Ghost’s home

planet?

Just now, Xu had mobilized the power of the Pleiades Lotus to attack Zhang Ruochen. That was when the Star-Shield Grand Formation was at its weakest. With Lord Xia Yu’s array attainments, she could definitely find the weak point of the formation and destroy it with one strike.

Zhang Ruochen’s strategy included breaking the Ghost’s Star-Shield Grand Formation.

As long as the Star-Shield Grand Formation was broken, he could rely on his extreme speed, the Path of Time, and the Path of Dimension. Even if he was besieged by several Supreme Saints of the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, he could still advance and retreat easily.

But now, there was a change in the plan.

Zhang Ruochen was now trapped in that comer of the Ghost’s home planet. It would be extremely difficult for him to resist the attacks of several powerhouses of the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm.

Lord Xia Yu was in trouble in the void space outside the Ghost’s home planet. She was discovered by Mauve Pupa, the Corpusian’s number one powerhouse, who was lying in wait on a star fragment. They began a spiritual power struggle.

Lord Xia Yu blew the best opportunity to break the Star-Shield Grand Formation because of Mauve Pupa.

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, Mistress Fireborn, and Lord Sinluo were still watching the show in the other void space, ready to reap the benefits.

“Who would have thought that the gourd in Zhang Ruochen’s hand could resist the Pleiades Lotus? Where did that gourd come from?’ A greedy smile appeared in Mistress Fireborn’s face.

Any cultivator, including gods, would be tempted by such a treasure.

Pan Ruo said, “Maybe it’s also a Supreme Artifact.”

Lord Sinluo was shocked, “A Supreme Artifact? That shouldn’t be possible! The gourd had been activated many times, but it didn’t release any Supreme Power. Besides, the Immortal Vampires’ Lady Wind and Lord Bladehell are both powerful figures. How could they let Zhang Ruochen control a Supreme

Artifact?”

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei nodded and said, “Every Supreme Artifact has a great reputation. No one in Celestial Court or Infernal Court can match the gourd in Zhang Ruochen’s hand.”

Pan Ruo had a few ideas, but since no one believed her, she didn’t say anything else.

“There are more than five Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm on the Ghost’s home planet,” Pan Ruo said. “Even if Zhang Ruochen can tum the sky upside down, he’ll definitely die now.

“Perfect. While he’s holding back most of the powerhouses, let’s attack now and break the Star-Shield Grand Formation first. Even if we can’t kill Supreme Saint Yanhong, we have to destroy the souls on the Ghost’s home planet first. We’ll completely suppress the Ghosts and they won’t be able to turn the

tide.”

Mistress Fireborn smiled sweetly, “I agree with Pan Ruo’s decision,” she said. “Indeed, we should attack immediately. It would be a great loss if all the good things on Zhang Ruochen fell into the hands of the Ghost and the Bone clan. I’ll give you the Ampliofruit and the Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill.

T only want the gourd.”

“With the Mad Whitejade Lion coordinating from the inside and outside, it shouldn’t be difficult to break the Ghost’s Star-Shield Grand Formation,” Supreme Saint Yuan Fei said..
