In the end, the two saint elders acquiesced and allowed Zhang Ruochen to take ten million drops of divine blood.
Zhang Ruochen took away the divine blood, and he left Blood God Sect with Huang Yanchen, Blackie and Qing Mo the next day.
He needed to go to the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians first.
One of the three families in the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians, Shi family, was ranked top five in Kunlun’s Field when it came to rune making. He needed to cooperate with Shi family to make Blood Repression Runes.
The six sword holders had a strong bond with the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians.
Zhang Ruochen was the holder of Taotian Sword, so he was greeted by many seniors from the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians when he visited King Pluto.
Shi Ren was standing at the front to receive Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen and Shi Ren were friends who’d been through life and death together. They ventured the nether world together before, and they also fought immortal vampires in Pluto Sword Tomb.
They didn’t act excited when they met each other. They gave each other a smile to express the entire friendship.
The last leader of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians, Wang Beilie, had been captured by Emperor Qing and became a blood slave. The new leader was Shi Ren’s father, Shi Qiankun.
Shi Ren was the junior clan leader.
Zhang Ruochen and Shi Ren walked side by side toward Sword Mausoleum.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “Has your father dissolved the poison of Lord Pluto yet?”
Shi Ren put one of his hands behind his back and clenched the other hand. He smiled, “Martial Lord dissolved the blood poison in my father’s body, after which his mind power reached a whole new level. My father has always said that he owes you a huge favor.”
Shi Qiankun had been attacked by the last generation of the clan leader and became a bloodthirsty devil who lost his mind. It was Zhang Ruochen who had helped him dissolve his devil Qi so that he could regain his mind.
To Shi Qiankun and Shi’s family, Zhang Ruochen was the one who had saved their lives.
Zhang Ruoche smiled humbly. “Actually, I came here because I need some help.”
They arrived right outside Sword Mausoleum.
Zhang Ruochen saw Shi Qiankun again after entering Sword Mausoleum.
Shi Qiankun looked to be around thirty years old, and he had a scholarly bearing. He looked energetic.
Obviously, the blood poison of Lord Pluto in his body had been dissolved.
“Such strong mind power.”
Zhang Ruochen stood down there and looked to Shi Qiankun. He felt that the person was standing in a chaotic hollow. Shi Qiankun actually stood very close to him, but he felt that they were standing in two different worlds.
The hollow and chaos were forces formed by Shi Qiankun’s mind power.
Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen’s mind power had reached level fifty, otherwise he couldn’t have seen his real face.
Such mind power was very close to that of Chu Siyuan and Sir Mu Qian, if not the same.
No wonder he was a peerless genius from the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians.
Shi Qiankun was holding a magazine in his hand, reading. He sensed that Zhang Ruochen was walking toward him, and he raised his head and looked toward Zhang Ruochen.
The mind power field around him immediately went away, and he turned back to an ordinary human being.
Zhang Ruochen greeted him with respect. “Clan leader.”
Shi Qiankun immediately stood up and greeted Zhang Ruochen. “We’re both sword holders. There’s no need for you to salute me. Let’s sit and talk.”
Zhang Ruochen sat in a chair on the left side.
Shi Qiankun didn’t go sit on the chair at the top. Instead, he sat in the chair on the right. Obviously, he thought Zhang Ruochen was his equal.
After exchanging some pleasantries, Zhang Ruochen told him why he had come to Pluto Lord Tomb.
“Blood Repression Rune?”
Shi Qiankun stopped smiling and looked serious. He asked, “Can I see the rune of Blood Repression Runes first?”
“Of course.”
Zhang Ruochen took out the half-saint Blood Repression Runes and Saint-level Blood Repression Runes, enveloping them with holy Qi and giving them to Shi Qiankun.
As for saint-king Blood Repression Runes and supreme-saint Blood Repression Runes, they were too important to lose, so Zhang Ruochen didn’t take them out.
Besides, the rune masters of Shi family might not be able to make those two runes.
Shi Qiankun was an expert on rune making. He observed the rune inscriptions while drawing in the air with his fingers.
Zhang Ruochen observed Shi Qiankun’s fingers and nodded. “Shi Qiankun is way more proficient in rune making than me and Blackie.”
Shi Qiankun was immersed in it. After a while, he took a deep breath and exclaimed, “How superb the design is. Do you know who designed this rune? He is magnificent.”
“Actually, I don’t know who designed these two Blood Repression Runes.” Zhang Ruochen shook his head and smiled.
Shi Qiankun looked a bit disappointed. He then said, “How many do you need?”
“The more the better.”
Zhang Ruochen then said, “I’ll give the main materials to make the runes.”
And then, Zhang Ruochen took out all his ten million drops of divine blood, putting them in front of Shi Qiankun.
Even Shi Qiankun was a bit thrilled seeing ten million drops of divine blood.
But Shi Qiankun was also an amazing person. He quickly suppressed his amazement, smiled and said, “To be honest, this is the first time I’ve seen so many drops of divine blood. Are you really going to put all of them in Pluto Lord Tomb? Aren’t you afraid that someone from the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians…?”
Zhang Ruochen picked up his teacup, took a sip and said, “I’m confident in the morale of Shi’s people.”
“Okay.”
Shi Qiankun admired Zhang Ruochen’s bravery. He said, “When will you come to get the Blood Repression Runes?”
Zhang Ruochen said, “I need to go do something very important, which will take me at least three months.”
Shi Qiankun promised Zhang Ruochen, “Shi family will do our best to make Blood Repression Runes. We should be able to make all the Blood Repression Runes in three months’ time.”
Zhang Ruochen refined the Blood Repression Runes because he wanted to fight the immortal vampires in the north, but he needed to head to Yin Yang Ocean first.
“Thank you, clan ruler. We’ll see each other in three months.”
Zhang Ruochen stood up and prepared to leave.
“Wait,” Shi Qiankun said.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “Is there any other question?”
“Let me show you something.”
Shi Qiankun took a look at the desk in front of him, and he grabbed forward.
A piece of newspaper flew toward Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen took the newspaper, and the words ‘News of Central Region’ were printed on the cover.
“News of Central Region’ was also edited by Saint Lady, which published the major news that took place in the central region.
The headline of the newspaper recorded the ‘civil war in Blood God Sect,’ and that ‘Gu Linfeng had become the new hierarch of Blood God Sect’.
Shi Qiankun looked at Zhang Ruochen and asked, “That new hierarch of Blood God Sect, Gu Linfeng, is you, isn’t it?”
Zhang Ruochen read ‘News of Central Region’ and asked, “Why would you say that?”
“The divine blood you gave me belongs to the Blood God. Other than the hierarch of Blood God Sect, nobody could have ten million drops all at once. Even for the hierarch of Blood God Sect, it’s difficult to have ten million drops of divine blood from the Blood God,” Shi Qiankun said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “You’re right, clan ruler. Zhang Ruochen and Gu Linfeng are the same person.”
Shi Qiankun said, “There’re many smart people in the world. If I can figure it out, so can others. You need to be extra careful from now on. I heard that the Immortal Temple has sent God of Death Knights to fight you. Qingtian Tribe and Huangtian Tribe also sent saints to accompany the God of Death Knights. The intelligent beings from Immortal Temple must’ve suspected that you two are the same person.”
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t anxious at all. He smiled, “Should I be flattered that Immortal Temple is sending God of Death Knights to fight me?”
It was said that the God of Death Knights formed the strongest army cultivated by Immortal Temple, and they were trained to fight saints. In the last eight hundred years, all the human great beings who had been targeted by God of Death Knight were killed.
Shi Qiankun was worried that Zhang Ruochen might underestimate his enemies, so he said, “I know that you have a valuable with you that can cover your force so well that not even mind power saints can deduce where you are. However, you should never underestimate Immortal Temple. If they have mind power supreme saints, no valuables are going to help you get away from them.”
“Immortal Temple has mind power supreme saints?” Zhang Ruochen said.
“I’m not sure.”
Shi Qiankun shook his head and said, “But think about this: if Immortal Temple doesn’t have mind power supreme saints, how does it stay above all the ten immortal vampire tribes?”
Immortal Temple was mysterious, powerful and intimidating.
If Immortal Temple really had mind power supreme saints, then even the Buddhist beads given by Master Yintuoluo couldn’t protect him from being traced.
Shi Qiankun said, “To immortal vampires, you’re more of a threat than truth saints and extreme saints. Once they find you, they will try to end you at all costs.”
“The Ancient Race of Prison Guardians is responsible for guarding the nether dungeon, so we can’t help you much. However, I can give you a five-trial saint suppression rune, which might save your life at a critical moment.”
