1430 Half True Half Empty

In the northern world of Zuling Field...

There was a rock mountain that was almost twenty thousand feet tall in a vast desert, and in the mountain were wind caves, releasing wicked power, covering the mountain with bizarre clouds.

Sword Saint Jiuyou walked to the desert, and he said, "Come out."

Whoosh! Luosha monks rushed out of the wind caves, and there were a hundred thousand of them.

More than sixty of them had wings on their backs. They dashed toward Sword Saint Jiuyou, flapping their wings.

Each of the Luosha who had wings was a saint.

Sword Saint Jiuyou wasn't intimidated at all. He glared at the Luosha monks, and sword Qi gushed out like waves that were hundreds of feet tall and crushed all the Luosha monks.

Meanwhile, Sword Saint Jiuyou grabbed a saint sword and rushed into the group of Luosha saints.

Every time he wielded his sword, a saint was slain.

After two hours, corpses of Luosha monks piled up. There were tens of thousands of them.

Sword Saint Jiuyou was still standing in the desert.

Some of the prominent beings from Heaven World were thrilled seeing that.

"That saint from Kunlun's Field is powerful. He might be able to fight some saint kings."

"This man is only a saint. Based on his sword technique, he might've finished refining sword eight based on Taoist categorization. Mark his name down, and we will need to recruit him to our Thousand Cities Field."

…

Zuling Field, the western world.

Chu Siyuan stood at the center of a lake holding a drawing pen that was five feet long and painting on the lake using blood.

"Kill!"

Hundreds of thousands of Luosha troops, including more than eighty Luosha saints, dashed toward Chu Siyuan and enveloped him with crimson devil Qi.

Chu Siyuan infused his mind power into the painting and yelled, "Blood pearls land from the sun, Fires and winds inflame everything."

In the next moment, the water in the lake turned into oil.

And then, an area of a thousand square miles was engulfed in flames.

After less than fifteen minutes, almost all the Luosha troops had been burned to the ground.

Some of the high-level Luosha saints weren't killed. They flapped their wings and tried to escape.

"No way you're getting away?"

Chu Siyuan immediately wrote on the lake using his pen.

Every time he drew, a fire dragon flew out from the lake and rushed toward the Luosha saints. Soon, more than a thousand fire dragons flew in the sky and burned to death all the Luosha saints.

People in some of the large fields in Heaven World were thrilled again.

"That elder's mind power is very close to level fifty-five, and his accomplishments on painting way are amazing."

"Why isn't he a saint king yet? Is he suppressing his cultivation on purpose to join the Saints Merits Battle?"

"Perhaps it's because the refining environment in Kunlun's Field is too bad for them to become saint kings."

"Mark his name down. With his accomplishments on painting way and the resources in Heaven World, it's only a matter of time before he becomes a supreme saint."

Sword Saint Jiuyou, Chu Siyuan and lots of other senior beings from Kunlun's Field had great talents. However, they stayed absolute saints for hundreds of years because of the environment.

Sword Saint Jiuyou's sword way and Chu Siyuan's painting way had both reached a remarkable level. They'd been refining for hundreds of years, so there was no comparison between them and those youngsters.

Zhang Ruochen refined in the inner space of the time and space crystal for three months to refine all the Ning True Saint Dew he had.

"I've reached half true, half empty realm. I still am one step away from becoming a true saint."

Heaven Pass River in Zhang Ruochen's lower abdomen became more solid, and saintly way rules all emerged, flowing in the river.

He was one step away from turning emptiness into truth.

"I've underestimated how much Ning True Saint Dew Heaven Pass River needs. I might need another thirty drops of Ning True Saint Dew to become a true saint.

"Other saints only need five hundred drops of Nine True Saint Dew to become a true saint from elementary Heaven Realm, and even a talent like Bu Ji only needs two thousand drops, yet even ten thousand drops are not enough for me.

"Where else can I find three thousand drops of Nine True Saint Dew?"

Zhang Ruochen shook his head and walked out of the space crystal.

Carnivorous Holy Flower grew extremely fast after coming to Zuling Field. The flower at the top had already yielded fruit.

This was the second fruit that Carnivorous Holy Flower bore!

The first time Carnivorous Holy Flower bore fruit, it became the phantom body of the flower.

Now, its phantom body had merged with its real body.

The second time it yielded fruit, it became its flesh.

Certainly, its second fruit had just come into being, so it still needed some time to mature.

Zhang Ruochen asked, "How many drops of blood and saint souls have you collected?"

Carnivorous Holy Flower took out two bottles and handed them to Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen inspected the bottles, frowned and said, "Only fifteen hundred and forty drops of blood and two thousand and thirty-two saint souls."

"My focus is to hurry, master, but I killed Luosha monks when I saw them," Carnivorous Holy Flower said.

Zhang Ruochen put away his bottles, took out a map and asked, "Where are we now?"

"Yujin Mountain," Carnivorous Holy Flower said.

Zhang Ruochen found where Yujin Mountain was on the map. "You walked two million miles in twenty days. I see you've tried your best."

"But we still have a long way to go to get to Whale River basin," Carnivorous Holy Flower said.

"We have to save time… We can use the wormholes. Look, there's a wormhole connecting the start of Yujin mountain and Whale River basin," Zhang Ruochen said.

The map clearly marked where all the wormholes were.

Carnivorous Holy Flower said, "Please don't do that, master. All the wormholes in Zuling Field are controlled by Luosha monks. Lots of armies and great beings guard those places.

"I've been to the wormhole to Yujin Mountain, and there're millions of Luosha armies guarding that place, including more than a thousand saints. I can sense more than one absolute saint from that army."

"Even saint kings can't handle their combined strike, not to mention the formation inscriptions around the wormhole.

Zhang Ruochen squinted his eyes and said, "Didn't expect so many Luosha monks to be there. It seems it's not an easy task to get through a wormhole."

"That's right," Carnivorous Holy Flower said.

"But it's almost a great number of merits. I don't want to just give up like that. Let's walk back and go check the wormhole space," Zhang Ruochen said.

Carnivorous Holy Flower couldn't refuse Zhang Ruochen's decision. It had to take him all the way back to the wormhole.

Zhang Ruochen rode the Golden Dragon Carriage while collecting the weapons seized by Carnivorous Holy Flower for the Abyss Ancient Sword to refine.

Those weapons were ordinary, so it only took the Abyss Ancient Sword a second to refine three or four of them.

Zhang Ruochen picked up a weapon shaped like an axe, and he felt an incredibly evil force coming from it. He said, "Is that the legendary Evil Sha Qi? It's kind of different from Evil Death Qi, kind of like the Blood Devil Qi of immortal vampires. Seems that the death race is at a higher level than Luosha race and the immortal vampires."

Immortal vampires had great life forces, as they had greater body constitution than human monks, so it was easier for them to sanctify their bodies.

All the males of Luosha race had great godly power at the same level as immortal vampires.

As for the Luosha females, they were gifted in mind power, so it was easier for them to become mindpower half saints or even mindpower saints.

…

Just as Zhang Ruochen rushed to the wormhole of Yujin Mountain, many saints from Hell Blade Field also arrived there because they had received the news that the heir of Hell Blade Field discovered Merits Record Wall in the south, so they were heading there to meet with their heir.

At this moment, they gathered in a canyon twelve thousand miles away from the wormhole, and there were eight hundred and fifty saints.

Two absolute saints and six true saints took the lead.

A male true saint whose face was covered with scales said, "All the monks from Luosha race are nothing except the first marquises. Let's go kill all the Luosha monks guarding the wormhole to get a huge number of merits before meeting our heir."

An absolute saint with six arms said, "Xu Heng, don't think you can be so reckless just because you're ranked top twenty among the true saints from Hell Blade Field. I ran into a second marquis of Luosha race a couple of days ago, and I almost got killed. Do you think you're stronger than me?"

"Really? Even a second marquis is that powerful?"

That true saint called Xu Heng looked shocked.

The six-armed absolute saint nodded and said, "Among those from Luosha race, only saints can be crowned as marquises, and there're ten levels of them."

"Lower-class saints are tenth marquises."

"Mid-class saints are ninth marquises."

…

"Luosha saints who just become absolute saints can only be crowned as third marquises."

"Only the top-tier beings of absolute saints can be second marquises."

"As for first marquises, each of them is a legend, and they are invincible under saint kings. Only several first marquises have shown up, and I'm pretty sure you've heard about them. They've killed more than one thousand saints of Shatuo Seven Fields in only a couple of days."

"There's one second marquis among those Luosha saints guarding the wormhole, and if we run into a first marquis, we might be annihilated."

"Let's be careful. After all, we've collected lots of blood and saint souls. We need to safeguard them to Whale River basin."
