Whoosh!
Three traces of godly light pierced through the clouds and fell on the Merit Record Wall, covering it completely.
The attack power from the three power beings was all warded off, and they didn't even manage to touch the wall.
Sword Saint Dongliu, Xue Lingfeng, and Li Mu were all relieved as the Merits Record Wall was still intact.
But then, they all looked confused, as they wondered where the godly light came from.
The one who had wielded that trace of light must have been a being who had a way stronger cultivation than saints, or Gods.
Zhang Ruochen was also dazed. He looked up at the sky to look for an answer.
Bang!
The Merits Record Wall fell on Pluto Ice Cold Ocean, but instead of sinking in, it was floating on the ocean. Three-colored godly light flowed on the wall.
Supreme Saint Manjian yelled at the sky, "Who interfered with the Saints Merits Battle!?"
The supreme saints from Guanghan Field were all infuriated as they found that the trace of godly light came from Merits Record Palace. Obviously, someone prominent from Heaven World protected the Merits Record Wall.
A cluster of three-colored godly cloud showed up, and terrific godly might came out of the cloud.
A rumbling sound came out of the godly cloud. "There're two days before the Saints Merits Battle is over, and before that, nobody can destroy the Merits Record Wall."
Even the supreme saints felt pressured facing the godly might.
However, they had to step forward for the fate of Guanghan Field.
There were lots of restrictions on Gods in Heaven World. As long as they had the righteousness, supreme saints didn't need to be afraid of Gods at all.
One of the three prominent beings from Guanghan Field, Emperor Jimie, walked out of the palace and looked at the godly cloud. "No creatures are allowed to interfere with the Merits Record Wall, not even Gods."
The God said, "This is different. What's the point of a Saints Battle if all the participants only think about destroying the Merits Record Wall instead of the evil races from hell?"
Emperor Jimie said, "Since you know it's different this time, you should've ended it instead of letting the saints from the Shatuo Seven Fields fight more than three million Luosha marquises. How many do you reckon will survive this?"
"Merits Godly Palace has its rules. The battle must last for three months, not one day more, not one day less."
And then, the godly cloud disappeared before Emperor Jimie could argue against it again.
Emperor Jimie clenched his fist, making a cracking sound. He was so furious that he wanted to burn everything around him to the ground.
Zhang Ruochen put his life at risk so many times to help Guanghan Field get to first place in the Saints Merits Battle, yet his efforts might have been in vain because of the interference of Merits Godly Palace.
There were still two days until the Saints Merits Battle ended, so it was almost impossible to guard the wall for two days.
"If I become a God one day, I'll definitely slay his godly soul," Emperor Jimie aid.
Wu Zu said, "Moon Goddess and Tree God are coming back soon. They'll appeal to the Merits Godly Palace after that."
Supreme Saints Nine Spirits said, "What Merits Godly Palace did was indeed unfair. They changed the rules when they wanted but didn't allow the battle to be over. When the Gods from the Shatuo Seven Fields come back, they'll not let it slide easily."
…
Zuling Field, Pluto Ice Cold Ocean.
Nobody knew what had happened exactly, but they knew that it was impossible to destroy the last Merits Record Wall, which meant they might still stand a chance.
Sword Master Dongliu, Xue Lingfeng, and Li Mu all looked pleased.
Just as they were about the seize the Merits Record Wall, a laughing sound came from afar, and the sound waves made the water in Pluto Winter Ocean tumble.
"Interesting. How interesting. Looks like the Gods from Heaven World don't want this battle to end."
Lord Lingquan showed up on a Xuanwu Shell, followed by more than ten first marquises. They were all smiling while engulfed in belligerence.
Everyone who was present realized the danger upon seeing the great beings from the Luosha race.
Sword Master Dongliu took a look at Zhang Ruochen and Li Mu. "Let's fight the Luosha race first before fighting for the Merits Record Wall. How about that?"
"Sure thing," Zhang Ruochen said.
Li Mu also nodded.
Although they were all powerful beings, they couldn't rival more than ten first marquises individually. The only way to level the playing field was to team up.
Lord Lingquan took out a purple stone and pinched it. "No need to fight for anything. None of you are going to survive today."
Godly inscriptions showed up on Lord Lingquan's skin, making both his defense and attack power stronger.
Boom!
Lord Lingquan dashed forward from the Xuanwu Shell like an artillery bomb, and he wielded his fist against the boat that Sword Saint Dongliu and Xue Lingfeng were on.
His fist mark turned into a purple cloud.
Sword Master Dongliu's eyes glinted fiercely, and his sword intent exploded. His sword clashed with Lord Lingquan's fist like a trace of light
Bang!
Sword light was dispelled while Sword Master Dongliu bounced back to the boat. His hand that was holding the sword was shaking and bleeding.
As for Lord Lingquan's fist, it wasn't wounded at all.
Sword Master Dongliu had utilized all his strength, yet he couldn't hurt Lord Lingquan even a little bit.
"Lord Lingquan has a supreme complete body constitution, and there're godly inscriptions on his skin, making his body invincible. The purple godly stone can improve his attack power. Even a first-step saint king pales compared to him."
Sword Master Dongliu then mobilized his saint Qi with Xue Lingfeng and infused it into the boat they were sailing on.
The boat got larger and larger, and it turned into a giant ship that was a thousand feet long eventually. Inscriptions emerged on the ship, turning into a defense light screen, which protected Sword Master Dongliu and Xue Lingfeng.
Lord Lingquan landed back on the Xuanwu Shell and sneered, "You warded off my full-strength strike, impressive. If you defect to me, you'll be highly valued in the future."
"Defecting to the Luosha race? Are you kidding me?"
Sword Master Dongliu and Xue Lingfeng sailed the ship against Xuanwu Shell.
Marquis Crow, Marquis Blood Rain, Marquis Xiebai, Marquis Qizhen, and Marquis Thousand Feathers supported a shield that was made of the bones of a supreme saint, activating its original power and warding off the shock of that giant ship.
Zhang Ruochen saw the exchange between Sword Master Dongliu and Lord Lingquan, and he whispered, "He managed to hurt Sword Master Dongliu with one strike. Lord Lingquan must've become a half-step saint king already."
Lord Lingquan was only a pinnacle absolute saint when he was fighting Nine Heavenly Maiden.
However, Lord Lingquan was way more powerful than before, so much so that even ordinary first-step saint kings might be killed by him.
Only first-step saint kings like Chu Siyuan and Yue Kong could suppress him.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen felt that he was being targeted. He looked to Xuanwu Shell, and he saw four first marquises dashing toward him.
He recognized two of them, both of whom were the most powerful first marquises under Lord Lingquan.
Marquis Xianling and Marquis Chengxuan.
Marquis Xianling was a Luosha girl whose mind power had reached level fifty-five.
As for Marquis Chengxuan, he could rival a first-step saint king.
They, assisted by another two powerful first marquises, were powerful enough to strike and kill a first-step saint king.
Marquis Xianling stood at a distance instead of getting close to Zhang Ruochen. She said, "Zhang Ruochen, you're going to die today."
Zhang Ruochen said, "Even Princess Luosha wouldn't say something so arrogant. Do you really think you can defeat me?"
"You've overestimated yourself. Her highness didn't kill you because she still needed your help. Otherwise, you would've been long gone," Marquis Chengxuan said.
"Really?
Zhang Ruochen stared at Marquis Chengxuan, and in the next moment, he was already right in front of Marquis Chengxuan. He then wielded a space crack.
Marquis Chengxuan was shocked, and he immediately moved to his right to dodge the space crack.
Crack!
Even so, Marquis Chengxuan's left arm was cut off, and his left shoulder started to bleed like hell.
Before Marquis Chengxuan could form his arm again, Zhang Ruochen wielded his arm against Marquis Chengxuan's neck, cutting his head off.
Everything happened so fast that even a real first-step marquis wouldn't have been able to ward it off, not to mention Marquis Chengxuan.
However, Marquis Chengxuan was only severely injured. He immediately tried to run away to gather with the other three marquises.
"How tenacious."
Zhang Ruochen was a bit confused, so he slapped toward Marquis Chengxuan's head, but there was no lower abdomen or saint source in it.
