Chapter 2397 - An Undefeated and Unkillable Force at Its Pinnacle

“Since no one is willing to compromise, we can only fight to the death.”

Zhang Ruochen swept his foot horizontally, creating a Qi wave that sent more than 20 Yanluo clan Array Masters flying like kicking rocks.

Whoosh

A Spatial Wormhole Mirror appeared, and all Array Masters sank into it.

In the distance.

Yan Huangtu’s eyelids twitched as he realized that something was wrong.

No one knew where the other end of the Spatial Wormhole Mirror was connected to. However, Yan Huangtu had guessed it in advance and retreated rapidly.

As expected.

Just as Yan Huangtu retreated, the Spatial Wormhole Mirror appeared where he was floating earlier. More than 20 Array Masters with divine flames burning on their bodies flew out and let out heart-wrenching screams.

Some of them had their bones almost melted from the fire and were on the verge of death.

“Zhang Ruochen’s timing is precise!”

Yan Huangtu sighed. He had to use his icy power to help them expel the divine flames on their bodies.

When more than 20 Array Masters had been suppressed by Zhang Ruochen, Yan Huangtu could have chosen not to compromise. However, now that he had been thrown in front of Zhang Ruochen, he could not leave them to die.

This was Zhang Ruochen’s plan!

To wait until the right moment and force Yan Huangtu to save them immediately.

Yan Huangtu extinguished the divine flames on more than 20 Array Masters in half a breath. Another space Spatial Wormhole Mirror opened on the right side of his body, and Zhang Ruochen rushed out.

At that moment, Yan Huangtu had an illusion that space seemed to freeze and time seemed to stop.

No!

It was not an illusion.

Space had really frozen and time had indeed stopped for a moment,

Zhang Ruochen’s right hand grabbed onto the Soul-siphoning Flute.

Zhang Ruochen struck with his left palm toward Yan Huangtu’s chest.

Yan Huangtu knew how terrifying Zhang Ruochen’s palm print was. He didn’t dare to take a direct hit from him. Even if he had invincible defense and the Royal Divine Frame, he definitely wouldn’t be able to take it.

ROAR!

Yan Huangtu roared. Tens of thousands of golden dragon shadows rushed out of his body. He released monstrous divine power, shattering the solidified space. He gave up on the Soul-siphoning Flute and retreated quickly.

He didn’t stop until he was 300 meters away. He still had lingering fear.

“The combined Power of Time and Dimension is terrifying,” said Yan Huangtu.

Yan Huangtu couldn’t move at that moment. All of his power, including his thoughts, had stopped. It was as if he was at the mercy of others. That feeling was extremely painful for him.

Fortunately, time had only stopped for a moment. If it had been any longer, Yan Huangtu was afraid that he would have lost the confidence to fight Zhang Ruochen.

“Xian’er, kill Xia Yu… Xian’er immediately…”

Yan Huangtu had just communicated with his spiritual power when he came across a startling scene.

At that moment, the space where Yan Zhexian, the Eight Sons of Life and Death, and Lord Xia Yu were was collapsing in a large area, forming a space with a diameter of hundreds of meters. All of them sank into the void.

From a distance, the scene looked like a thin layer of ice on the surface of a lake had shattered. They all fell into the water.

“Zhang… Ruo… Chen…”

Yan Huangtu squeezed out these three words from between his teeth.

Above the shattered space, there was still a space Spatial Wormhole Mirror that had not dissipated.

Clearly, in the half-second it took Yan Huangtu to save more than 20 Array Masters, Zhang Ruochen had first attacked the space where Yan Zhexian and the others were and then attacked him.

His moves were nimble.

“The Master of Time and Space… This is the Master of Time and Space! Are there still any cultivators able to take him down in the entire Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting?” Yan Huangtu exclaimed.

Yan Huangtu was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would have ordered the Array Masters and Talisman Masters of the Yanluo clan to set up a great array to suppress time and space. Otherwise, how could he fight with Zhang Ruochen when both time and space were under his control?

…

Yan Zhexian and the Eight Sons of Life and Death were also regretting it.

The Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting was located in the colorful divine fog nebula in the Forest of No Return. The space was so stable that even with their powerful cultivation, they could only tear a crack in the space at most.

However, Zhang Ruochen, the Master of Space, mobilized the Precepts of Dimension. He shattered a vast space hundreds of meters long with one palm and swept all of them.

“I’ll assist you in returning to the battlefield. You must put a stop to Zhang Ruochen. The first place is within the Yanluo clan’s grasp. We must not lose now.” Yan Zhexian stated.

Yan Zhexian stood in a sinking Fragment of Space. Her ten fingers moved quickly and drew eight talismans. She struck the Eight Sons of Life and Death. Before the space closed again, she pushed them out of the void.

Yan Zhexian and Lord Xia Yu sank deeper into the void and were swallowed by the darkness.

Of course, Yanluo clan’s Ancient God of Knowledge and Wargod Bloodximius quickly rescued them from the void.

“Finally, they were out of the battlefield. Now, I have nothing to hold me back. I can finally fight to my heart’s content.” said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen checked the Soul-siphoning Flute and confirmed that Lord Xia Yu’s Saint Soul was inside. So, he took out her spiritual power from the Pleiades Lotus and put it into the flute’s internal space.

Then Zhang Ruochen threw the Soul-siphoning Flute into the void.

Countless gods were watching the battlefield. Zhang Ruochen believed that the god who had saved Lord Xia Yu would take the Soul-siphoning Flute with him.

Whoosh

Zhang Ruochen didn’t attack Yan Huangtu anymore. He flashed across the Spatial Wormhole Mirror and appeared in front of Pink Skull.

“Zhang Ruochen, you’re too late. I’ve sent 63 Bone Clan Supreme Saints to kill the 63 Nine-Step Saint Kings of the Immortal Vampires.”

Pink Skull had anticipated that Zhang Ruochen would be the first to deal with her. She was prepared. Divine light radiated from her body. She pointed to Zhang Ruochen.

There was a ruby ring on the bone finger.

It was the Bone Clan’s Supreme Artifact.

Pink Skull had used all her strength against Zhang Ruochen.

This finger strike was a high-level saint technique of the Thousand-Koan level. It interchanged from fast to slow and it was unpredictable. Even though Zhang Ruochen had the Heart of Truth, he still couldn’t figure it out. He couldn’t help but be shocked.

‘Pink Skull has such a unique technique. With this finger strike, even powerful figures like Wujiang and Yan Huangtu might not be able to escape unscathed.’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

BANG!

Thousands of starlight spots rushed out of Zhang Ruochen’s body, forming the Realm-frame of Truth—Shoreless Star Ocean. Then, the rays of Light of Truth shone on Pink Skull.

Zhang Ruochen finally saw the bone finger’s attack trajectory clearly.

Due to the influence of the Profound Spatial Dimension, in Pink Skull’s eyes, Zhang Ruochen’s body was sometimes far, sometimes close, sometimes left, and sometimes right. It also gave her a hard time figuring him out.

Just as Pink Skull was in a daze, the Pleiades Lotus flew out of nowhere and collided with her bone finger.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen’s palm print hit her chest heavily. Ten Swastika Seiryus flew out of his palm. Pink Skull screamed and flew more than 100 miles away.

“Impossible… How could he break my Illusory Finger so easily? It’s combined with the power of the Supreme Artifact.”

Immortal Inscriptions lit up on Pink Skull’s divine bone, neutralizing the power of Zhang Ruochen’s full-strength palm.

Pink Skull didn’t get the opportunity on the Bone Clan’s home planet, but she did have some luck. She had a better understanding of the Immortal Inscriptions on her bones.

SWOOSH!

Zhang Ruochen crossed space and appeared in front of Pink Skull again.

Before she could stabilize herself, she struck again.

Boom

Pink Skull flew out again.

“I don’t believe that you really can’t die,” said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen continued to attack. This time, he mobilized the Divine Purification Flame to refine the Immortal Inscriptions on Pink Skull.

Zhang Ruochen had heard from Luo Sha that Pink Skull was immortal. It had been killed three times by a Paramount Realm Supreme Saint, but it had come back to life three times. It was extremely strange.

Zhang Ruochen refused to believe it.

There was only absolute power in the world. How could there be an immortal?

In a breath’s time, Zhang Ruochen had sent Pink Skull flying 13 times. She couldn’t fight back at all. Every time she cursed, her voice was interrupted halfway through.

Yan Huangtu and the Talisman Masters of the Yanluo clan gathered together. Staring at Zhang Ruochen and Pink Skull, they pointed and said, “Seal that space.”

More than 60 Supreme Saint Talisman Masters of the Yanluo clan attacked together. They struck out the runes that had been carved long ago that looked like a city wall.

The runes that looked like a city wall originally covered an area of 20,000 miles. Now, they quickly shrank and only covered an area of 10,000 feet.

They wanted to continue shrinking, but were blocked by Zhang Ruochen’s Profound Spatial Dimension and the Realm-frame of Truth.

“Enough!” Yan Huangtu said.

More than 60 Supreme Saint Talisman Masters attacking at the same time was enough to suppress Zhang Ruochen. It was equivalent to turning from a fierce tiger into a trapped beast.

Yan Huangtu activated the Supreme Power of the Scepter of Heaven’s Pass. It rushed into the city wall rune patterns and attacked Zhang Ruochen’s waist and abdomen.

Zhang Ruochen could not use the Great Dimensional Shift to dodge. He could only use the Pleiades Lotus to meet it head-on.

The Ghost Lotus spun and released a large amount of cold ghost qi.

Boom

When Yan Huangtu attacked, Zhang Ruochen was already prepared.

Therefore, he wasn’t at a disadvantage in this exchange.

The two retreated quickly.

“As expected, Zhang Ruochen’s Power of Dimension is suppressed!” Yan Huangtu was delighted.

Zhang Ruochen was the first to dissolve the Supreme Power of the Scepter of Heaven’s Pass. Then, he used the Pleiades Lotus, which was still spinning rapidly, to turn into a streak of golden light and attack Yan Huangtu again.

Yan Huangtu was not afraid. He shouted, “Come and fight.”

However, Yan Huangtu’s face quickly turned ugly because Zhang Ruochen had released the Null Time realm. In this realm, the flow of time slowed down a lot.

It was as uncomfortable as the freezing of space and the stopping of time.

What was more uncomfortable was that Yan Huangtu found that the slowing of time was continuous. It did not disappear in an instant.

On the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting, Zhang Ruochen had obtained several opportunities in a row. The Precepts of Time and the Precepts of Dimension had increased by nearly ten times. Naturally, their power had increased greatly. They could even affect a Supreme Saint in the Banshi Isshou Realm to a certain extent.

It also had a huge impact on a Supreme Saint below the Banshi Isshou Realm.

BOOM!

Yan Huangtu’s Scepter of Heaven’s Pass moved much slower than Zhang Ruochen’s. His skin split open, his internal organs ruptured, and half of his body was broken when the Pleiades Lotus landed on his chest.

However, the Royal Divine Frame was intact.

‘Another Supreme Saint with abnormal defense. Yan Huangtu and Pink Skull are perfect for each other,’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

Just as Zhang Ruochen thought of Pink Skull, she attacked from behind. She activated all the power of the Supreme Artifact ring and suppressed Zhang Ruochen.

“Petals of Pleiades Lotus bloom in seven.” Zhang Ruochen chanted.

The Pleiades Lotus in Zhang Ruochen’s hand instantly split apart. Seven petals flew out, all carrying Supreme Power. They attacked Pink Skull and Yan Huangtu at the same time.

The three powerhouses activated three Supreme Artifacts in the city wall rune pattern. They fought fiercely.

Surging Ghost Qi, Divine Purification Flame, immortal divine power, Nine Dragons Divine Marks, Supreme Power… all kinds of power shuttled chaotically. They kept crashing into the runes.

The more than 60 Supreme Saint Talisman Masters of the Yanluo clan were all nervous and sweating. They had tried their best, but they still couldn’t control the runes. They looked like they were about to be crushed.

“Zhang Ruochen is too strong. He’s fighting two people at the same time, but he still has the upper hand. I feel that the runes will soon be crushed by the power of three Supreme Artifacts.”

“If Supreme Saint Zhexian was still here, she might be able to suppress Zhang Ruochen with her attainments in Talismans.”

…

On the other side, hundreds of Supreme Saints of the Bone Clan all moved out to encircle the cultivators of the Immortal Vampires.

The focus of the encirclement was naturally the 14 Supreme Saints with 77 million Immortal Vampires. As long as they were destroyed, the points of the Immortal Vampires were likely to be cut in half.

After all, the 63 Supreme Saints sent out by Pink Skull could easily wipe out 63 Nine-Step Saint Kings.

“Break out, break out immediately. Zhang Ruochen has already restrained the most powerful figures of the Yanluo clan and the Bone Clan.”

“For the glory of the Immortal Vampires, I have no regrets in dying today.”

“We must show the momentum of our last resort in order to intimidate the Bone Clan cultivators. Let’s not hide anymore. Let’s burn our saint blood together and cover the 14 Supreme Saints’ escape.”

…

The Immortal Vampires charged at the Bone Clan’s legion of Supreme Saints with murderous intent.

The Bone Clan Supreme Saints were intimidated by their aura. Did these Immortal Vampires really want to die? It was just the Battle of Celestial-Hunting. Why did they have to fight to the death?

Did they not care about their lives?

Did they have bloodshot in their eyes?

If they all self-destructed, wouldn’t they die together with them?

An Immortal Vampires Supreme Saint had already self-destructed!

The Bone Clan Supreme Saints slowed down their attack and spread out quickly. They didn’t dare to fight the Immortal Vampires at close range.

If they chose to fight at a distance, the speed of casualties would definitely slow down. It would take more time to destroy the Immortal Vampires.

Zhang Ruochen, Yan Huangtu, and Pink Skull were in a bad situation.

Yan Huangtu’s body was constantly broken by Zhang Ruochen, and many blood and pieces of flesh flew out. In the end, more than 90% of his flesh and blood were lost, leaving only a golden Royal Divine Frame.

Lord Xia Yu had previously been unable to withstand the rebound force of the Supreme Artifact, so Yan Huangtu had beaten her until she was left with only her saint bone.

The wheel of fortune turned.

At that moment, Yan Huangtu could not withstand Zhang Ruochen’s attack either. He was sent flying countless times, and his flesh and blood were almost lost.

However, Yan Huangtu was different from Lord Xia Yu. His Royal Divine Frame was indestructible. His Sainthood Source, meridians, and sea of Qi were all hidden in his bones. He had been beaten so miserably, but he was still full of battle strength. He was extremely abnormal.

The Immortal Vampires watching the projection of the Mystic Eye of Myriad Realms were all excited. They felt that Zhang Ruochen was avenging Lord Xia Yu. He was giving him a taste of his own medicine.

Yan Huangtu was such a powerful figure, but he was beaten to a pulp by Zhang Ruochen. It was only a matter of time before he was defeated.

After all, no matter how strong a defense was, it could not be unbreakable forever.
