Whoosh!
A flood of silver light showed up around five thousand feet away from the godly palace.
There was a large group of people in the silver light, and powerful saint Qi ripples surged to the sky, and they were the monks from Kunlun’s Field. Most of them were seriously injured, and they’d lost their motivation, looking defeated.
However, when they realized that they’d been saved from the encirclement of the saint kings from Heaven Field, they all rejoiced like a bunch of drowning people being rescued onshore.
Everyone looked at Zhang Ruochen with veneration.
Even Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon had to admit that Zhang Ruochen was a hero, and was rendered silent.
Zhang Ruochen had managed to save all of them in an impasse like that, facing hundreds of powerful saint kings. If they were in Zhang Ruochen’s shoes, they wouldn’t have shown up at all, and the best they would have done was to call for help from Truth Godly Palace.
However, before the godly disciples from Truth Godly Palace could get there, the monks from Kunlun’s Field would’ve been annihilated.
Everyone would admire someone like Zhang Ruochen who had such bravery and breadth of mind.
Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon finally got to understand why Princess White Li, an ancient remains creature, would choose to follow Zhang Ruochen over it.
Zhang Ruochen did have the potential to become a hero of his time, like Lord Jiwang, the lord of the dragon race in the ancient times.
Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon had learned of the legends of Lord Dragon Jiwang from the secret guides from Ancestral Dragon Mountain, and it couldn’t admire him more. He was a real hero of his time, a magnate of Kunlun’s Field and the overlord of the dragon race who roamed the universe.
Each hero of their time had great luck with a large group of talents as their followers.
And those followers who grew with the heroes would all become top-tier talents awed by the world, like the eight heavenly dragons under Lord Jiwang, each of which had the power to fight Gods.
Princess White Li probably chose to follow Zhang Ruochen because she saw his potential, and she would want to become someone like the eight heavenly dragons with the help of Zhang Ruochen.
The monks from the imperial government all had some strong grudges against Zhang Ruochen, treating him as a dreg from the former dynasty.
However, the monks were all speechless, feeling complicated.
The imperial government was the most powerful organization in Kunlun’s Field, and it ruled the whole field.
They thought that the imperial government had the best talents in the world, yet they couldn’t even compare with the monks following Zhang Ruochen.
Where did Zhang Ruochen find those great beings?
“Let’s get out of here.”
“That’s right. The saint kings from Heaven Field are all trapped in the godly palace, giving us a great chance to flee.”
…
More than half of the saint kings from Heaven Field were trapped in the godly palace. Although there were still many saint kings outside, they were all stationed in different directions, and it would take some time for them to gather.
This was indeed the best time for them to get away.
However, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have any intention of making a sortie with them. He looked to Nine Heavenly Maiden. “We can’t just let them off so easily, can we?”
Nine Heavenly Maiden’s temperament suddenly changes. Her eyes gleamed as she released blazing flames, and she said, “No need for you to remind me. I’ll suppress them all today to avenge my elder brother.”
Zhang Ruochen scowled as this wasn’t the voice of Saint Lady. Instead, it was Martial Saint Canglan.
Wan Canglan, the sister of Wan Zhaoyi.
It was likely that Saint Lady consumed too much of her mind power, so she was temporarily hibernating, after which Martian Saint Canglan’s consciousness showed up, becoming the lead for Nine Heavenly Maiden.
Zhang Ruochen had some mixed feelings toward Martial Saint Canglan.
He wasn’t sure whether their minds could be as tacit as his and Saint Lady’s.
“All the saints from Kunlun’s Field, give me the power to take back the godly palace.”
Nine Heavenly Maiden formed a fingerprint, and nine martial deity prints showed up on her forehead, forming a circle.
A light pillar flew out from the center of the circle and hit the top of the godly palace.
All the saints from Kunlun’s Field wielded traces of saint Qi, which infused Nine Heavenly Maiden’s back. Her slender body seemed to be able to hold as much saint Qi as she wanted.
With the help of all the saints, Nine Heavenly Maiden gave out more and more forces.
That godly palace belonged to one of the nine heavenly maidens, Siming Goddess.
Sensing the forces of Siming Goddess, the godly palace immediately started to shake, shrink, and fly toward her.
Zhang Ruochen retreated back to the Amazing Little Taoist, Carnivorous Holy Flower, and Xie Chengzi. He took out the blue lotus seed and infused immense life forces into Chi Kunlun’s and Chi Kongyue’s bodies.
Sizzle!
Chi Kunlun’s hand slowly grew back, and his face became less pale.
Meanwhile, the blue light also shone upon the saints from Kunlun’s Field, which quickly healed their wounds. They all looked to Zhang Ruochen, amazed.
“Um? It happened again!”
Zhang Ruochen sensed a feeble ripple coming from underground again, which was stronger than last time. He couldn’t help smiling.
The blue seed lotus in his hand kept shining and dimming as if it was answering to the stuff underground.
“What is that?”
Zhang Ruohen released a trace of mind power to inspect it, but the ripple vanished instantly.
Boom!
The godly palace shrunk to half the size, but something happened.
Tremendous saintly way power gushed out of the godly palace. It didn’t penetrate the palace, but it did shake the palace and make it bulge.
Boom!
Boom!
…
The monks from Heaven Field who were trapped in the godly palace made ferocious attacks, and the godly palace turned back to its original size, which knocked Nine Heavenly Maiden back.
Zhang Ruochen looked at Nine Heavenly Maiden, who was struggling to support it, and he said, “How about letting me take the godly palace under control if you’re having a hard time doing so.”
Nine Heavenly Maiden shot Zhang Ruochen a glare and said, “Nobody can get the godly palace but me.”
“There’re a great many saint kings from Heaven Field in the godly palace. Even you, the master of the godly palace, won’t be able to withstand all their attack power,” said Zhang Ruochen.
Nine Heavenly Maiden felt that Zhang Ruochen was underestimating her. She spit out red saint blood, which turned into rain, merging with the saint Qi and raining on the godly palace.
After which the godly palace stopped shaking so fiercely, starting to get smaller and smaller.
The Amazing Little Taoist said, “She fears that you’ll take away the godly palace and won’t give it back to her.”
“Ugh. I reckon she’s afraid that you’ll steal her thunder. I wouldn’t let a chance to make such a contribution slip away.” The Carnivorous Holy Flower smiled.
The Amazing Little Taoist didn’t seem to be scared of Blackie anymore. It asked, “Where’s that owl?”
“It went to the real Xumi Dojo!”
Zhang Ruochen turned around and looked to the northwest.
And then, he put his hand on the Eight-dragon Umbrella and infused his saint Qi into it.
The umbrella was opened, giving off shining golden light, shielding all the monks from Kunlun’s Field.
Bang!
Bang!
Six saint arrows were shot at the Eight-dragon Umbrella, making six rumbling noises.
Soon, six saint kings of the fairy race showed up at the northwestern side, drew their bows and shot again.
The saint kings from Heaven Field kept arriving and making attacks from the distance.
Zhang Ruochen and the others could still manage to ward them off at the beginning.
However, with more saint kings arriving, their attacks became more and more overwhelming.
The saints from Kunlun’s Field standing in the sky were their targets.
The Carnivorous Holy Flower said, “Master, we can’t hold them off for much longer. Tell that Nine Heavenly Maiden to stop trying to get the godly palace back and get out before Heaven Field completely encircles us.”
“Try to ward them off for a bit longer.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to argue with Nine Heavenly Maiden anymore. He rushed to her side and hit her with his hand.
Bang!
He hit Nine Heavenly Maiden’s shoulder and knocked her away.
“What are you doing, Zhang Ruochen?”
Nine Heavenly Maiden wasn’t injured seriously, but she was furious.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t give a damn about her. He opened the Time and Space Secret Guide, which flew to above the godly palace.
And then, silver light kept gushing out of the book, enveloping the godly palace like water.
Nine Heavenly Maiden finally understood that Zhang Ruochen pushed her away because she was a burden to him.
Seeing the godly palace fly toward the Time and Space Secret Guide, Nine Heavenly Maiden got angrier and kept grinding her teeth at Zhang Ruochen. She found that guy irritating, and she was also disappointed in herself.
Suddenly, Nine Heavenly Maiden saw a human being walk out from another space and show up behind Zhang Ruochen.
It was the leader of Space Godly Palace, Gong Ziyan.
Gong Ziyan got out of the godly palace using spatial move, but he’d been waiting nearby for a chance.
Just as Zhang Ruochen was about to get the godly palace, Gong Ziyan moved to right behind him and said ferociously, “I’m the one who laughs last and loudest. Die!”
Gong Ziyan formed a spatial crack and was about to wield it.
Whoosh!
Nine Heavenly Maiden waved her arm, and a trace of silver light flew out.
It was a silver kitchen knife.
There was dimming godly power on the kitchen knife, and it was wielded against Gong Ziyan’s neck.
Gong Ziyan was dazed and used a Space Freeze Rune, clashing with the kitchen knife and stopping it from moving.
Zhang Ruochen seized that moment and put the godly palace into the Time and Space Secret Guide, and then he turned around and wielded a spatial crack, almost at the same time as Gong Ziyan.
Bang!
Two spatial cracks clashed with each other, shaking the space around them.
Zhang Ruochen was less than one hundred feet away from Gong Ziyan. They gazed at each other coldly.
“Die.”
Zhang Ruochen had been suppressing his anger for a long time, and he let it all out seeing Gong Ziyan so close to him. He formed a fiery fist print and struck toward him.
Even though his enemy’s cultivation was three levels higher than his, he wasn’t afraid at all.
