After sailing on Pluto Ice Cold Ocean for more than a hundred miles, there was Gang Wind on the ocean, and they closer they got to the Phoenix Nest, the stronger the wind became.
It seemed that there were real blades in the wind.
Whoosh!
Zhang Ruochen, Princess Luosha, and Chu Siyuan all formed light screens to protect themselves against the Gang Wind.
The Divine Phoenix Tree stopped when it was thirty miles away from the Phoenix Nest.
There was heaven and earth saint Qi spinning in front of them, forming a giant whirlpool, and the Phoenix Nest was at the center of the whirlpool.
The Gang Wind inside the whirlpool was fiercer, and there was blue and white Divine Jingmie spinning inside. Even saint kings would find it very difficult to get in.
Princess Luosha said, "This is the last boundary of the Phoenix Nest. The deeper we get into the whirlpool, the more dangerous it's going to be. We can only get in using the power of space."
"Really? I don't believe it!"
Chu Siyuan had already reached saint-king level, so he was very proud of himself. He took out a bronze pen, a piece of paper, and an inkstone.
The painting paper was made of a rare metal. It was more than six feet long but ten times thinner than ordinary paper.
There was beast emperor blood on the inkstone. Even without any eternal power, the energies contained in the blood made it feel like a furnace.
It took Chu Siyuan lots of effort to get that beast emperor blood, so he rarely used it.
"Wind-stabilizing Pillar!"
Chu Siyuan mobilized mind power and infused it into the bronze pen, twisted his wrist and started to paint on that metal paper using beast emperor blood.
Princess Luosha pinched her chin as her interest was piqued. After all, it was rare to find a painting way mind power monk.
After a short while, Chu Siyuan stopped painting and pressed the picture, followed by gushing mind power.
Boom!
The picture flew into the whirlpool, giving off gleaming golden light.
And then, a golden pillar that was a hundred thousand feet tall showed up, and there were blood-red engravings flowing on the pillar.
The whirlpool spun slower and slower, and the ocean turned tranquil.
Just when the whirlpool was about to disappear, space cracks showed up around the Wind-stabilizing Pillar and crushed the pillar.
Bang!
The whirlpool spread everywhere.
Chu Siyuan's eyes popped, and he said, "The space here is too fragile. Once a trace of power stronger than saints enters the whirlpool, there'll be lots of space cracks, but how're we supposed to ward off the Gang Wind and Divine Fire Jingmie without above-saint power."
Princess Luosha was shocked.
That old man was indeed forceful. Without the interference of space, he might actually be able to stabilize the whirlpool.
Zhang Ruochen had been observing it the whole time. He said, "It isn't because of the fragility of the space structure, but rather because there's a brilliant space formation inside the whirlpool. As long as we can break it, we can get in."
Princess Luosha had studied the space formation here before. "It's indeed a space formation, and besides, there's a slaying formation, Life-death Two Extremes Formation. The two formations have merged with each other, and if we try to break the space formation itself, we'll be attacked by Life-death Two Extremes Formation, and vice versa. We need to crack both formations at the same time."
Zhang Ruochen said, "Is that why you used the Merits Record Wall to threaten me? You want me to help you crack the space formation?"
"That's right," Princess Luosha said.
Chu Siyuan said, "Life-death Two Extreme Formation is an eighth-class formation, which is very complicated and abstruse. Even saint kings might die if they try to get in."
Princess Luosha chuckled. "Ice and Fire Phoenix was fairly mediocre on formations. I think we can crack its Life-death Two Extremes Formation."
"The young people today are too confident," Chu Siyuan said.
Actually, the Life-death Two Extremes set up by Ice and Fire Phoenix was stronger than Princess Luosha thought.
However, Ice and Fire Phoenix should've had a ninth-class formation around its nest, given its cultivation. But Life-death Two Extremes Formation was only an eighth-class formation, and even after combining it with a space formation, it was still way weaker than a ninth-grade formation, which was why Princess Luosha said Ice and Fire Phoenix was very mediocre in formation making.
It was still extremely dangerous for her and Zhang Ruochen to crack two formations made by a supreme saint. They might be the only two saints who had the guts to do that.
Princess Luosha took out a saint scepter and pointed it at the whirlpool. Millions of inscriptions emerged, traveling back and forth in the whirlpool like dragons.
Life-death Two Extremes Formation was indeed very complicated, and it was almost impossible to crack it when millions of inscriptions intertwined with each other. Perhaps only those who were as strong as or stronger than seventh-step saint kings could break it with pure strength.
Chu Siyuan stood on the Divine Phoenix Tree and saw Princess Luosha erase the inscriptions one by one, and he couldn't help admiring her. "Impressive. A powerful woman like that from Hell World will definitely be a great enemy to us in the future."
Zhang Ruochen was also breaking the space formation, cooperating with Princess Luosha perfectly.
However, Zhang Ruochen was comprehending the space ways in the formation as he was cracking the space formation.
Just as Princess Luosha had said, he needed to use his comprehension to comprehend space rules if he wanted to reach absoluteness level.
After an hour, Zhang Ruochen and Princess Luosha walked forward three miles, and the whirlpool slowed down by one tenth.
After four hours, Zhang Ruochen and Princess Luosha walked forward for another five miles, and the whirlpool spun only half as fast as before.
After seven hours, Zhang Ruochen and Princess Luosha finally came to the deep area of the whirlpool, and they were only ten miles away from the Phoenix Nest. The whirlpool spun much more slowly.
At this moment, a feeble ripple was transmitted from Zhang Ruochen's lower abdomen.
The space rules in Heaven Pass River had just evolved, reaching the absolute level.
"That easy..."
Zhang Ruochen smiled.
Before reaching that level, Zhang Ruochen could see nothing but mist, but when he reached the absolute level, he realized that he'd been overthinking everything.
Now, he only needed to comprehend time rules to the absolute level to become an absolute saint.
"Hopefully I can have the chance to comprehend something in the Phoenix Nest."
Zhang Ruochen craved great power; only with great power could he handle the ultimate battle against the Luosha race.
After a whole day, Zhang Ruochen and Princess Luosha stopped and gave each other a look.
And then, they both rushed toward a formation knot after using their full strength.
Boom!
Both space formation and Life-death Two Extremes Formation shook, and then, they crumbled.
Although the whirlpool disappeared, there were tumbling waves that were hundreds of feet tall on the ocean, and Divine Fire Jingmie and space cracks flew away.
Zhang Ruochen and Princess Luosha performed their best body techniques and landed back on the Divine Phoenix Tree like two traces of golden light.
There were horrific forces sweeping across the ocean.
Zhang Ruochen, Chu Siyuan, and Princess Luosha all used their best protection valuables to ward off the destructive power.
The Divine Phoenix Tree was the most tragic one as it was continually attacked by Divine Fire Jingmie and space cracks, and almost all its branches and leaves were cut off or burned to the ground.
After three hours, the ocean was tranquil again.
Zhang Ruochen said, "The final boundary of the Phoenix Nest is broken. Can you give me the Merits Record Wall now?"
"Of course."
Princess Luosha took out the Merits Record Wall from a space treasure and threw it away.
"I knew you were going to play me again." Zhang Ruochen mobilized his saint Qi, stepping on the divine phoenix tree branches and rushing toward the Merits Record Wall.
He wouldn't allow the Merits Record Wall to fall into the ocean.
Zhang Ruochen couldn't focus on the fight against the Luosha race until he made sure that Guanghan Field was in first place.
Which was why he was controlled by Princess Luosha.
"Good luck."
Princess Luosha chuckled and flew onto the Divine Phoenix Tree branches, rushing toward the Phoenix Nest. "Qiu Yu, deal with that elder. This is a test for you."
