Lord Liaosang was the hierarch of an ancient sect from Ruiya Field. He was a ninth-step saint king.
Ruiya Field had been suppressing Guanghan Field for a long time. The feud between the two fields was ancient and deep. Two hundred years ago, Su Jing went to the Merits Battlefield, and he was suppressed and humiliated by the son of Lord Liaosang. He had to kill Yin Ji for self-protection, and the grudge between them dated back from then.
Lord Liaosang went to Shatuo Heaven Domain after that, trying to avenge his son, but Supreme Saint Nine Spirits wasn't someone who he could easily mess with, as he was one of the strongest supreme saints, so he warded Lord Liaosang off.
Since then, nobody had brought it up.
After two hundred years, Lord Liaosang suddenly came to Shatuo Heaven Domain seeking revenge, and he even brought the Sky-Sealing Glass Dome, which looked very suspicious.
Wu Hao was very anxious, as he would immediately be killed by Su Jing if he found out he was the defector.
Fortunately, Su Jing was focusing on Lord Liaosang, so he hadn't had the time to think about how exposed their trace.
"Although the Sky-Sealing Dome was a true treasure to seal the sky and land, I've prepared something to deal with it too."
Su Jing was the king of a large land, after all, so he still looked pretty calm facing an enemy like Lord Liaosang.
Lord Liaosang guffawed. "The Sky-Sealing Dome was used to bring about heavenly mysteries on the space. Even supreme saints will find it difficult to break it. Do you think your cultivation is enough to break it?"
Zhang Ruochen mobilized the saint Qi in his body and utilized the space power. He wielded his fingers, and he tore the space apart a little bit in front of him.
As the crack approached, the saintly way rules flowing on the reticle gleamed with saint light, closing the space crack.
"Even space power can't tear it apart."
Zhang Ruochen immediately retracted his saintly way power and stepped back.
Lord Liaosang guffawed. "Your space attainment is far from enough to break the Sky-Sealing Glass Dome, kiddo."
"Although the Sky-Sealing Glass Dome has the power to trap a supreme saint, it also depends on who's the one using it. I reckon I can break it since you're the one operating it," Su Jing said.
"You dare look down upon me?"
Lord Liaosang was furious, standing in the evil clouds.
Su Jing's wings spread again, and they now spanned more than a hundred feet.
There were nine different colors of light spots on the feathers.
The light spots were nine feathers.
Whoosh!
The nine feathers detached from Su Jing's wings, floated in the air, and became larger and larger, giving out terrific supreme saint forces, forming nine whirlpools.
Lord Liaosang yelled, "The original nine feathers of Supreme Saint Nine Spirits!"
"Break!"
Su Jing mobilized all his saint power, and there were dozens of traces of lightning flowing around his body. He put his hands together, controlling the nine enormous feathers as if they were nine blades, slashing the reticle.
Saintly way rules emerged on the reticle again.
Sizzle!
Su Jing was mobilizing the original nine feathers that belonged to Supreme Saint Nine Spirits which contained the saintly way rules of Supreme Saint Nine Spirits, and on each feather were tens of thousands of rules flowing.
Gradually, the reticle formed by saintly way rules was actually cracked, and they could see the outside.
Su Jing knew it wasn't easy for him to control the original nine feathers. His veins were popping, and his eyes turned red. "Run!"
Everyone knew that Su Jing wouldn't be able to hold it for too long, and that crack torn by the original nine feathers was the only chance they could survive it.
Run!
Led by Wu Hao, Ling Mi, Mu Lingxi, and Wen Shusheng all performed their body techniques and rushed out.
Su Qingling stared at Su Jing and said, "Father, what about you? Come with us…"
Su Jing also wanted to get out with them, but when he looked at the original nine feathers, he looked bitter and helpless. He could barely sustain that crack with all his strength. If he tried to run out, the crack would close up.
He was the only one who couldn't try to run.
Howl!
Lord Liaosang yelled from the back.
Su Jing said, "Zhang Ruochen, take her and leave."
Zhang Ruochen gave Su Jing a deep look, nodded, grabbed Su Qingling's left shoulder and rushed out with her.
Whoosh!
The crack disappeared.
Zhang Ruochen took a look behind him. He saw a blue mountain behind him, and it was peaceful and tranquil. It didn't look like there were two great beings fighting each other at all.
"Father… Father… Zhang Ruochen, let me go."
Su Qingling teared up. She clenched her teeth, mobilized her saint power and tried to get out of Zhang Ruochen's grasp.
He had to let her shoulder go.
Su Qingling then rushed forward, but she quickly hit an invisible space wall.
Bang!
Su Qingling kept making attacks and palm prints, and using saint weapons, hitting the transparent space wall, but she couldn't break it at all.
Zhang Ruochen didn't try to talk her out of it. Instead, he took out a signal flare, wrote a help-seeking message and sent it out.
They were still very close to Red Dragon Sacred Domain, so he was asking Supreme Saint Manjian for help.
However, it only flew a couple thousand feet before it was slowed down and stopped completely. A giant hand formed by purple mist showed up and grabbed it.
"I knew there was more to it."
Zhang Ruochen stared at that purple hand, as he had expected something like that to happen.
He just didn't know who he was.
Both Ling Mi and Wen Shusheng looked anxious. They both performed secret techniques, trying to ask for help from the great beings from Guanghan Field, yet they were all stopped by an invisible force.
"There's no use. None of you are surviving today!"
King Hun laughed hoarsely as his body emerged. Half of the body was flesh and blood while the other half was soul. He was wearing a large purple cape that was waving in the air.
King Hun was holding a bone saint scepter, and he abruptly stuck it into the ground.
And then, a purple formation with a diameter of more than a thousand feet showed up, centering on the bone scepter, covering Zhang Ruochen, Wu Hao, Mu Lingxi, Ling Mi, Wen Shusheng, and Su Qingling.
There were soul shadows on the purple formation making shrill sounds.
Zhang Ruochen was the only one who could still stay calm. He stared at the bizarre man standing at the center of the formation and asked, "Are you the one who wants to kill me?"
"Not me, but someone far stronger than I am."
King Hun's voice echoed as if there were hundreds of him talking at the same time.
There was mind attack power in the voice. Mu Lingxi, Ling Mi, and Su Qingling, who had weaker mind power, had huge headaches, falling.
"How great the mind power is..."
Zhang Ruochen also felt a mild headache. He immediately bit his tongue, took out the Buddha sarira and infused it with his saint Qi.
Whoosh!
The Buddha sarira gleamed with golden light, and thousands of Buddha sounds quickly suppressed the sound of King Hun.
Zhang Ruochen took out the Golden Dragon Carriage, went in, and said, "The enemies are very well-prepared and want to kill us all. Get into the Golden Dragon Carriage and get out now."
"That guy is someone from Soul Field called King Hun. We can't fight against him. Follow Zhang Ruochen and get out of here as soon as possible." Wen Shusheng was worried that Su Qingling was reluctant to leave, so he grabbed her and got into the Golden Dragon Carriage together.
And then, Wu Hao, Mu Lingxi, and Ling Mi all boarded, and under their control, the Golden Dragon Carriage made deafening dragon sounds.
Whoosh!
Two circles of saint power gushed out, and the Golden Dragon Carriage's Second-Yao Complete Power was triggered. The great saintly way power twisted the purple formation as if it could tear it apart.
King Hun smiled and said, "Wu Hao, what're you waiting for. Are you really going to sit by and let Zhang Ruochen run away?"
"What do you mean?"
Wen Shusheng, Ling Mi, Su Qingling, and Mu Lingxi were all dazed hearing that.
Wu Hao looked irritated, as he thought King Hun shouldn't have exposed him, but now that he was exposed, he didn't have any other option.
Once he made the wrong choice, he could only spiral further and further into the darkness.
Boom!
Wu Hao stared at Zhang Ruochen, rushed forward and tried to hit Zhang Ruochen's back with his palms.
Wu Hao was very decisive and he did that almost at the second when King Hun exposed him.
And besides, Wu Hao was standing right behind Zhang Ruochen, and his palm print could hit Zhang Ruochen instantly.
However…
Wu Hao only managed to hit a shadow of Zhang Ruochen.
"How is that possible… No way…"
Wu Hao looked horrified, as he hadn't managed to hit Zhang Ruochen. Instead, he lost his balance as he didn't retract his power in time and stumbled.
Meanwhile, he heard Zhang Ruochen say, "I knew there was a defector among us the second Lord Liaosang showed up. How could I not beware of you?"
Wu Hao tried to use his protection rune to save himself.
"Die!" Zhang Ruochen yelled furiously.
He hit Wu Hao's back and slapped him onto the ground, nailing him in the huge pit, and Wu Hao started to bleed non-stop.
At the next moment, Zhang Ruochen stood back in the Golden Dragon Carriage, took a look at the pit, and rode the Golden Dragon Carriage toward King Hun, who was standing at the center of the formation.
