1710 Six Times Stronger

"I don't have saint kings anymore, but I do have some of their saint sources," said Zhang Ruochen.

Demonic Sound said, "I can do with that."

Zhang Ruochen didn't take out those saint sources, instead, he said, "I have some better use for those saint kings' saint sources, so I can't give them to you. You're in Truth Godly Palace now, so just comprehend Way of Truth, otherwise you won't be able to fight real great beings."

Demonic Sound looked contemptuous and said, "Is Way of Truth really that important? I'm Carnivorous Holy Flower, and I don't need to be afraid of anyone at my level."

Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, "You're a fifth-step saint king, aren't you? I'm a fourth-step saint king now, so if you can ward off one strike from me, I'll take back what I said and give you ten saint sources of saint kings."

"One strike?"

"Yes, just one strike?"

"Without the power of space and time?"

"Of course not."

Demonic Sound smiled and said, "I know you're powerful, master, but you've really underestimated me. I've absorbed the bodies of saint souls of hundreds of talents from Yin and Yang Field, Black Demon Field and Ten Thousand Devil Field. My cultivation has surged, and I've gained some special power. Although I'm only a fifth-step saint king, I can defeat a sixth-step saint king in a real battle and even challenge a seventh-step saint king."

"Then let me show you the power of Way of Truth since you're so confident."

"Ghost God Comes."

It was the eighteenth move of Luo Water Fist Technique.

Two phantoms, one brighter and one darker, showed up as if a God was walking with a ghost.

Demonic Sound smiled as she wasn't afraid, "You fist technique is indeed impressive, but it's not enough to defeat me."

"Really?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

He infused the Fist Technique with more than six thousand Rules of Truth, which made Zhang Ruochen's force stronger. The Godly shadow and the ghostly shadow became larger and denser.

Demonic Sound was slightly dazed. She raised her arm, which turned into tens of thousands of vines.

There were lightning flames on the vines, which gave out powerful demonic sha Qi, looking like a cluster of dark clouds covering the sky, dashing toward Zhang Ruochen.

Boom!

Two forces clashed with each other.

The vines wielded by Demonic Sound were all torn apart, and Zhang Ruochen hit her with his two iron fists, knocking her away.

In the end, Zhang Ruochen retracted eighty percent of his power so that he wouldn't seriously injure Demonic Sound.

Demonic Sound kneeled on the ground with one knee and said in pain, "Cough… How was that possible… Why did your strength surge five times? I can't even defend myself against you."

Demonic Sound asked, "Can I absorb and seize the Rules of Truth directly?"

"I don't think so."

Zhang Ruochen let Demonic Sound try to absorb the nutrients from the flowers in the cave, yet the efforts were in vain as she couldn't absorb the Rules of Truth.

"Better comprehend it yourself. Even Abyss Ancient Sword has comprehended almost one hundred Rules of Truth, which could double its power."

Zhang Ruochen then said, "I'll stay in Truth Godly Palace for about another year. If you can comprehend seven hundred and twenty-nine Rules of Truth in this year, I'll give you a huge gift."

Saint Kings who managed to comprehend seven hundred and twenty-nine Rules of Truth could boost the power of their saint spells by three times.

Which was very difficult to achieve, and most of the talents couldn't do it.

Demonic Sound wanted to get stronger after being defeated by Zhang Ruochen with one strike, so she asked, "What kind of gift?"

"A Seven-Yao Ten-Thousand-Patterns Saint Weapon! If you make enough efforts, you'll be able to get it."

Zhang Ruochen put Demonic Sound back to his body, walked out of the cave and came to the square on the second level of Truth Godly Palace.

It was still Feng Xi and another Godly disciple who was guarding the second level of Truth Godly Palace, and they were both pretty surprised to see Zhang Ruochen walk out.

Feng Xi asked, "Feng Yan said you've passed the fourth level of the ocean domain, so you must've gained a lot of refining time. Why don't you stay in the cave to comprehend more? Do you have any confusion? Supreme saints will have lectures about Way of Truth every month, so I can take you there if you need."

Zhang Ruochen cupped his hands and saluted Feng Xi, "Thank you, sister Feng, but I've comprehended the first two levels of Flower Ocean Cave, so I want to go check the third level."

"You've comprehended both levels?"

Feng Xi looked surprised.

The other Godly disciple, Yan Shiju, was astounded and he looked at Zhang Ruochen like he was a freak. He asked, "How many Rules of Truth have you got?"

"Sixty-five hundred and sixty-one," said Zhang Ruochen.

He had to go through a trial if he wanted to refine on the third level of Truth Godly Palace. He couldn't get to the third level of the godly palace if he didn't comprehend the first two levels in Flower Ocean Cave.

"Come here and have a test."

Feng Xi still found it hard to believe, so she took Zhang Ruochen to under the Truth Mirror to test him.

Zhang Ruochen stood in front of Truth Mirror and mobilized the Rules of Truth, and then, inscriptions showed up on the mirror.

Many disciples from Truth Godly Palace stood still in the distance, breathing heavily.

Feng Xi stayed silent for a while and said, "Do you know that many leaders from the large fields didn't achieve as highly as you on Way of Truth. The creatures who have fully the two levels in Flower Ocean Cave are all famed great beings, and most of them have been refining in Truth Heavenly Domain for ten years. Your achievement has already surpassed many godly disciples."

Zhang Ruochen knew what she said for some extent.

For example, the leaders of Yin and Yang Palace, King Flame and Queen Lian, had comprehended the two levels in Flower Ocean Cave, and they could exert power five times stronger.

Wang Xu who had passed the fourth level of the ocean domain when he was a half-step saint king had comprehended the first level in Flower Ocean Cave.

Feng Xi said, "You can go to the third level of Truth Godly Palace, and I'm really expecting want kind of surprise you can bring me."

"See you later."

Zhang Ruochen walked toward the third level of Truth Godly Palace in white.

Yan Shiju transmitted his voice to Feng Xi, "Zhang Ruochen must've got Mysteries of Truth. So jealous."

Feng Xi shot him a glare and said, "You'd better not do anything against him. Zhang Ruochen is a very special man, and both Taoist sect and Buddha sect want him, not to mention he has Moon Goddess behind him. He's not yours to mess with."

Yan Shiju smiled and said, "Our grandmaster has already ordered us not to.

…

Only few monks could reach the third level of Truth Godly Palace, so it was desolate.

The guard on the third level was an elder in grey. He looked like an eighty-year-old with wrinkled on his face.

Zhang Ruochen couldn't feel any trace of saint Qi ripple on his body, yet it was exactly what made him more intimidating. Zhang Ruochen immediately saluted him.

The elder in grey looked at Zhang Ruochen, smiled and nodded, "Impressive, impressive indeed. You managed to come to the third level of Truth Godly Palace at such a young age, which is very rare. If you're a disciple of Truth Godly Palace, I'll definitely admit you as my disciple."

"Feng Xi has already told me about you, since you're a friend of hers, I can teach you some tricks that might help you."

Zhang Ruochen couldn't be happier. He said, "Thank you so much, senior."

After hearing what the grey elder's instruction, Zhang Ruochen came to a metal door, opened it and walked in.

There were eight hundred and eighty-eight small worlds on the third level.

After coming to one of the small worlds, all Zhang Ruochen could see was a yellow ground. Mud, sand and stones were mixed together, and they were everything in the small world, looking lifeless.

There was no wind or wind.

The small world was so incredibly quiet that Zhang Ruochen could even hear his blood flowing in his veins.

Zhang Ruochen summoned both Abyss Ancient Sword and Demonic Sound and said, "Way of Truth is inside the mud, according to the senior I just talked to. Go comprehend it yourself."

The ground in the small world was vast with lots of different structures. Part of it formed towering mountains, some part formed deep valleys, some part had turned into desert and some were plains made of huge rocks.

Zhang Ruochen spent three days walking to every corner in the small world before igniting Honghua Vine, starting to comprehend and refine on a desert.

He still let half of his six saint souls comprehend Way of Sword, Way of Time and Way of Space.

Half a year passed.

The desert under Zhang Ruochen turned into a whirlpool, spinning faster and faster, and the sand formed a wall, covering him.

It lasted for a month.

One day, Zhang Ruochen mumbled, "Earth not Earth, Everything Void."

Whoosh!

The sand suddenly all disappeared.

Even the desert under him vanished, turning into a brown mist cloud.

The ground disappeared, and everything around him was sky.

"Is this the first level of Earth Small World?"

Zhang Ruochen mobilized his mind power, and he realized that he'd been refining for seven months, which scared him a bit. The third level of Truth Godly Palace was indeed much more difficult than the second one.

He had nineteen thousand six hundred and eighty-three Rules of Truth already, which was an amazing improvement.

Boom!

He waved his fist, which was six times stronger.

Zhang Ruochen couldn't be happier. He thought, "I have five more months to refine and improve my Way of Truth. Can I comprehend the second level of Earth Small World?"

If he could fully comprehend the second level of Earth Small World, he could exert power seven times stronger."

According to Feng Xi, there were only few monks in Truth Heavenly Domain who could reach that level, excluding the godly disciples from Truth Godly Palace.
