Zhang Ruochen seemed to have recalled something. He said, “You’re the peerless talent from Chi family two hundred years ago?”
“That’s right,” Chi Dufeng said confidently inside the Golden Dragon Carriage.
He was a royal member who had become a sword saint. He was definitely one of the strongest beings and a leader among his peers. He was even stronger than many older saints who had refined for half a millennium.
Chi Dufeng said, “Seems like there’re many great beings among the Sacred dregs since you can make it all the way here. The fight is brutal out there, isn’t it?”
“Indeed. Many people from Chi family were killed, including those who’ve lived for hundreds of years,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Chi Dufeng knew how powerful Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion was, and it definitely took those Sacred dregs a lot to get into the mansion.
However, he reckoned it was impossible for them to have damaged Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion.
Chi Dufeng sneered, as he didn’t believe anything Zhang Ruochen said. “You came to the Emperor Shrine because you want to control the supreme saint inscriptions to turn the tables around, don’t you? Unfortunately, you’re fighting me now, which means the Sacred dregs will be annihilated today.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to waste time talking to him anymore as he wanted to kill Chi Dufeng as quickly as possible. He then mobilized the power of the Universe World.
After mobilizing it nine times, a tumbling force gushed out of the Universe World from the five saint meridians of Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen then wielded the Abyss Ancient Sword.
“How terrific… That power…”
Chi Dufeng realized something wrong with Zhang Ruochen’s power, and then, he pushed his hands forward and infused the nine chains with his saint Qi, passing it to the nine dragons.
“Nine Dragon in One, Sweeping across Everything.”
Gleaming light gushed out of the dragons, shining upon the sun and land.
A phantom of a godly dragon showed up above the dragons as if it was the combination of all the nine dragons.
Boom!
After mobilizing the world power of the Universe World, Zhang Ruochen was able to activate the complete power of the Abyss Ancient Sword. There was black light gushing out of the sword, smashing the phantom of the divine dragon.
The sword cut off the bodies of all the nine saint dragons, and the dragon blood fell like nine blood-red falls, and nine giant dragon heads flew away.
Others would be horrified.
Zhang Ruochen also knocked the Golden Dragon Carriage over. However, it was indeed an incredible treasure that warded off the waves of the sword Qi.
Zhang Ruochen killed all nine of the saint dragons.
Chi Dufeng was shocked.
In the Demonic Sect headquarters, Zhang Ruochen barely defeated Mu Qingtian after three moves, but the power he just showed was more than ten times stronger.
“Wait. His power is quickly dwindling.”
Chi Dufeng suddenly realized that wasn’t Zhang Ruochen’s power.
He calmed himself after realizing that.
Those who were using outer power must’ve paid a great price for that, and they weren’t able to use that power any time they wanted. Otherwise, everyone would resort to using outer power.
Chi Dufeng also had outer power to help him, but he wouldn’t use it unless his life was threatened.
“How strong you are, Zhang Ruochen. You have a trump card indeed. Unfortunately, you’re already being self-destructive. Using outer power is never good for a real talent.”
Chi Dufeng could see that Zhang Ruochen was a great enemy, so he wanted to crush his mind first. “I thought you’d be able to become a supreme saint like Emperor Ming, but I’ve overestimated you.
“Talents and comprehension are important for those under supreme saints, but if you want to become a supreme saint, you need to have a strong heart.
“You’ve already caved when you used that outer power and wasted your potential. You’ve destroyed your entire refining path.”
He didn’t know that Zhang Ruochen was well aware of that.
Everything was a double-edged sword, and he would certainly pay a great price for great power.
He wouldn’t use the world power of the Universe World if he didn’t want to get into the Emperor Shrine as soon as possible.
“You have a much weaker mind than me.”
Zhang Ruochen then tried to utilize the world power again, but he failed.
Chi Dufeng seized the chance to rush out of the Golden Dragon Carriage carrying a saint sword, performing ‘Qingzhao Godly Technique’ using the sword intent of Sword Seven.
“Heaven and Earth Three Swords.”
The first move was like a tornado, and thousands of wind blades followed the sword Qi.
The second move was followed by thunder and lightning, forming a vast lightning ocean, and the sound could destroy the eardrums of the saints.
The third move was like rain, sword Qi merging with the tornado and lightning with its power surging.
Heaven and Earth Three Swords was created following three kinds of heaven and earth, which could merge with heavenly way rules.
Only sword saints were able to merge all the three sword techniques so that their combined power would be multiplied.
Zhang Ruochen had to use all his power fighting a great being like Chi Dufeng. He released sword intent and performed True-Thunder Fire Sword Technique.
“Shenxiao True Thunder.”
The sky turned black, and hundreds of lightning bolts fell and merged with the Abyss Ancient Sword, confronting the Heaven and Earth Three Swords.
Boom!
Two sword intents and sword Qi clashed with each other. It was a fight between two sword saints, but to normal monks, it looked like a fight between Gods.
Zhang Ruochen took dozens of steps back, and there were dozens of cracks on the robe.
Chi Dufeng looked dashing wearing that golden cape, and he released a trace of blue saint Qi, crushing the sword Qi around him.
He looked at Zhang Ruochen, smiled and said, “Do you know why I was waiting for you here? Because the space and time in the shrine are very stable, which can suppress your time and space power. You only have your ancestors to blame for all those inscriptions they made.”
Chi Dufeng was obviously a meticulous and intelligent person even though he was incredibly arrogant. Otherwise, he would’ve died a long time ago.
Chi Dufeng had been trying to crush Zhang Ruochen’s mind the whole time.
He knew that a fight between sword saints was more of a matter of mind instead of sword techniques. Crushing one’s mind meant crushing that person.
Chi Dufeng’d been invincible after merging Heaven and Earth Three Swords, so he was actually shocked that Zhang Ruochen was able to ward them off.
Chi Dufeng walked forward with his sword in one hand and his other hand behind his back. “To be honest, your power is indeed beyond my expectations. Unfortunately, you’re still going to be killed within ten of my moves.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “Your power is also beyond my expectations.”
“Really?”
Chi Dufeng smiled.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I heard that two hundred years ago, you could fight Luo Xu for dozens of moves, but now, Luo Xu can kill you with one strike. You’ve been lagging behind these recent years.”
Chi Dufeng stopped smiling and said, “It seems I need to show you my real power now.”
“Heaven Intent Three Swords.”
Followed by a whooshing sound, ten thousand traces of sword Qi flew around this place.
Zhang Ruochen was dazed and thought, Has Chi Dufeng finished Sword Intent Three Swords?
Both Heaven and Earth Three Swords and Heaven Intent Three Swords were sword techniques within ‘Heaven Way Sword Techniques,’ and on top of both of them was ‘Heaven Way Three Swords.’
They could be performed either individually or combined.
If someone could merge all the nine moves in ‘Heaven Way Sword Techniques,’ he could rival the power of Sword Nine.
“Irresistible Heaven Intent.”
“Unpredictable Heaven Intent.”
“Determined Heaven Intent.”
Tens of thousands of traces of sword Qi and sword shadows dashed toward Zhang Ruochen as if they were going to annihilate him.
“Nine Nine to One.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t try to dodge it at all, instead, he mobilized the sword intent of Sword Seven performing the greatest technique of True-Thunder Fire Sword Technique.
And then, Zhang Ruochen’s body was divided into nine parts, and then eighty-one parts.
All those eighty-one parts lined up in a strange way, and ten thousand lightning bolts hit the ground, surrounding Zhang Ruochen like a cluster of fiery clouds.
All those eighty-one parts wielded the sword at the same time, clashing with Heaven Intent Three Swords.
