Zhang Ruochen set up a large spatial maze which trapped all the saints from Blade Hell Field and Purple Mansion Field inside, and then, he entered the saint mountain through the saint spring waterfall.
Han Qiu's hands released traces of dark light, covering everyone.
Doing so made sure the monks from Purple Mansion Field and Blade Hell Field weren't able to detect their forces.
Mad Mad carried his iron rod on his shoulder and walked behind Zhang Ruochen. He asked, "How long can your maze trap them?"
"They've lost their saint weapons, which greatly decreased their power. I reckon the spatial maze can trap them for at least half an hour," Zhang Ruochen said.
"Half an hour… Still a bit pressing," Mad Man said.
Han Qiu's hair touched the ground. She sneered and said, "We should've killed them all."
Mad Man felt scared hearing that. He said, "The monks from the seven fields, and some of the prominent beings from Heaven World are all watching through the battlefield reflection. If we actually kill them all, it'll be a massacre, and we'll be punished after getting back to Heaven World."
Han Qiu said, "Purple Mansion Field and Blade Hell Field killed many saints, didn't they?"
"That's different! Although Heaven World usually turns a blind eye to the conflicts among the large fields, there's still a bottom line we can't cross. If we cross it, Heaven World will definitely interfere. If we really kill more than a thousand saints who've given up fighting back, we'll cross that line, no doubt," Mad Man said.
Han Qiu said, "If we don't kill them, they'll soon lead a large group of saints to come for us."
Le who had been silent the whole time spoke out, "Why are we wasting time thinking about it? To me, it really doesn't matter."
In the end, they stopped fighting and walked toward the inner area of the saint mountain.
The pillage in Wujin Saint Mountain shocked many saints from the seven fields to their core.
More than one thousand saints were robbed like that, and not by some saint king or a supreme saint, but for saints.
"This is insane!"
Many monks had that thought.
"None of the saints from Blade Hell Field and Purple Mansion Field fought back at all? Are they all freaking useless? How the hell did they become saints in the first place?"
"If all of them teamed up, they stood a chance of destroying those four robbers."
"They brought shame to Blade Hell Field and Purple Mansion Field! How are they going to return to their mother world?"
Strangely, almost no monks cursed Zhang Ruochen and the others, instead, they found the inaction of the saints from Blade Hell Field and Purple Mansion Field totally unacceptable, and that they brought shame to both their own fields and the entire Heaven World.
Even the monks from Purple Mansion Field and Blade Hell Field were infuriated.
As for the supreme saints, they focused on Han Qiu and Le as they found them unbelievably powerful.
And besides, they were perceptive enough to see some of the tiny details in the battlefield.
"I reckon the woman is practicing Way of Darkness. Perhaps the saints from Blade Hell Field and Purple Mansion Field only gave up fighting back because they were affected by the power of darkness."
"How can a human being withstand the power of darkness?"
"For what it's worth, she's a highly gifted person. We must send someone to get in contact with her after Saints Merits Battle is over."
"Who would've thought there were so many great talents in Kunlun's Field if it weren't for Saints Merits Battle? If we give them five hundred more years, Kunlun's Field's power will surge."
…
As he walked forward, Zhang Ruochen put the water from the saint spring into his Mercury Gourd.
After walking for God knew how long, the tunnel started to get darker and colder. Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen stopped walking as he sensed traces of tremendous saintly way ripples.
He stopped collecting the water from the saint spring and hung Mercury Gourd at his waist. He took out Abyss Ancient Sword and walked forward carefully.
After fifteen minutes, they entered an underground cave.
The wall was more solid than iron, and the gravity inside was way higher than outside. They felt like they were carrying an entire Wujin Saint Mountain.
They found it very difficult to handle the pressure even with their cultivation, and that they bodies would explode if they fought fiercely.
Whoosh!
Traces of golden light spread like golden rivers.
At the center of the golden light floated a towering palace. It looked like it was made of golden, and the thirty-six pillars around it had phantoms of thirty-six different phantoms as if thirty-six saint souls were crafted in the pillars.
The saint spring flowed from that divine palace.
Zhang Ruochen had collected enough water from the saint spring to make hundreds of thousands of drops of Nine True Saint Dew, but apparently, it was only a very small part of it. There should be more saint spring in that palace.
"It's indeed a saint mansion. Are there treasures of supreme saints hidden inside?" Mad Man's eyes popped with mania.
No creatures could stay calm when it comes to supreme saints' treasures.
Zhang Ruochen stared at the golden river flowing out of the saint mansion, and he grabbed forward, forming a large hand print.
The second his hand print touched the golden river, it was immediately dispelled into saint Qi, merging with the golden river.
Mad Man was confused seeing that.
"Just as what I expected."
Zhang Ruochen said, "That golden river is made of saintly way rules. I reckon that saint mansion is a rules emperor weapon Wujin Ancestor."
Everyone who was present knew about rules emperor weapons.
When a monk reached Heaven Pass Realm, he or she would be able to form an object using saintly way rules, and that object was the embryonic form of a rules saint weapon.
As the monks improved their cultivation, their saintly way rules would get denser and more solid, and the embryonic form would turn into a real rules saint weapon.
Only saint kings were able to make rules saint weapons, which represented the essence of saint kings to some extent.
To most of the saint kings, their rules saint weapons would crumble when they were killed, and the only thing left was a saint source.
Refining saint sources of saint kings meant having the inheritance of saint kings, but it couldn't compare with refining rules saint weapons.
When a monk obtained the rules saint weapons of saint kings, he or she would find it easier to comprehend saintly way rules, and they might even be able to absorb the saintly way rules from rules saint weapons and transferred them into their own saintly way rules.
Which meant saint sources of saint kings were the most precious for monks under Heaven Pass Realm, but for absolute saints, the rules saint weapons were the most important.
"A golden saint mansion made of saintly way rules? How many saintly way rules are there? How important was the owner of the saint mansion?" Han Qiu was surprised.
Zhang Ruochen said, "Which means Wujin Ancestor must have been a supreme saint, and this saint mansion is a rules emperor weapon."
Rules saint weapons of first-step saint kings were 'class-one rules saint weapons'.
Rules saint weapons of second-step saint kings were 'class-two rules saint weapons'.
…
Rules saint weapons of ninth-step saint kings were 'class-nine rules saint weapons'.
Only rules saint weapons were qualified as 'rules emperor weapons'.
Rules saint weapons could only be preserved if saint kings gave them to their heirs, otherwise they would be broken when the saint kings were killed.
Which was why rules saint weapons were scarce, and in the auction of Heaven World, any rules saint weapon would be craved for.
Even a class-one rules saint weapon could help an absolute saint become a saint king immediately, saving decades of time.
As for the higher-class rules saint weapons, nobody would put them in the market.
As for rules emperor weapons, they were one of the most valuable treasures, and they were valuable enough to instigate a battle between two large fields which might involve supreme saints.
Zhang Ruochen said, "The saint spring is transferred from the saint mansion absorbing the saint Qi from heaven and land. If we can get the saint mansion, we can get the saint spring, and we'll be able to make thousands of drops of Nine True Saint Dew everyday."
"That's a rules emperor weapon. I'll try everything to get it." Mad Man's wanted to go and get it now.
However, a large group of saints gathered below the saint mansion.
Almost half of the top-tier beings from Purple Mansion Field and Blade Hell Field were there.
There were thirty-four of them.
Even the weakest ones were pinnacle absolute saints, and twelve of them were half-step saint kings. They guarded the saint mansion like twelve Gods of War.
A team like that was already strong enough to encircle a saint king.
However, there seemed to be formation around the saint mansion, so it was very difficult for them to approach it. Fang Yi and Sword Master Dongliu had to move very slowly, and every step required lots of energies.
"No wonder Sword Master Dongliu and Fang Yi haven't been around for half a month. This is what they're aiming at."
"They're very close to the saint mansion already."
Zhang Ruochen activated Hundred Saints Blood Armor to cover his body and said, "Mad Man, when Fang Yi and Sword Master Dongliu break the formation around the saint mansion, we'll attack them at the front. Han Qiu, Le, you guys know what you're supposed to do, right?"
