Supreme Saint Nine Spirits shot a glance at Supreme Saint Manjian and said, “Bu Ji has already refined the fragmented soul of Supreme Saint Golden Lion into his own supreme saint fighting soul. I don’t think he’s strong enough to do that.”
“It was me. I helped him,” Supreme Saint Manjian said.
Supreme Saint Nine Spirits nodded, as that was what he expected to have happened.
Supreme Saint Manjian said, “However, I was impressed that he could withstand the power of the fragmented soul of a supreme saint. He’s one of my outstanding disciples. I can cultivate him in the future.”
Su Qingling looked to Zhang Ruochen and said, “Hey, look, the guy with a supreme body constitution is finally devoted to the fight. Do you reckon Bu Ji can make him show his true power this time?”
…
“Dragon and Elephant Prajna.”
Zhang Ruochen raised his arms, and his bones made cracking sounds. And then, a dragon phantom and an elephant phantom showed up on each side, and two barren savage beasts dashed toward Bu Ji.
Bang!
Zhang Ruochen’s claws and Bu Ji’s hands clashed with each other.
Fierce saintly way power emanated and formed saintly Qi waves outside Heaven Pass Cave.
The saint-level dragon soul and elephant soul couldn’t compare with the golden lion battle soul that was at supreme saint level, so the golden lion battle soul crushed the dragon phantom and elephant phantom when they touched.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t step back, and the saint Qi started to flow fiercely in his meridians and saint meridians, forming a stronger palm force.
Boom!
Bu Ji bounced back like an artillery shell, hitting the wall of a saint palace.
He fell onto the ground against the wall, and he felt that his entire body was about to crumble.
“How was that possible? How? I have the fragmented soul of Supreme Saint Golden Lion, yet your beast souls are only at saint level. How did you defeat me?”
Bu Ji clenched his fist in anger and bitterness.
Bu Ji had a sturdy body and the battle soul of a supreme saint. He didn’t need to fear anyone who was at the same level.
However, he was annihilated by a saint who had just reached Heaven Pass Realm, even though he used the cultivation of pinnacle Heaven Pass Realm.
This was a huge blow to him.
Zhang Ruochen said, “The battle soul of a supreme saint is indeed mighty, much stronger than the dragon soul and elephant soul, but battle souls are only there for help. You’re really powerful when your strength is strong enough. You’ve already lost three times, so you should give me thirty drops of Ning True Saint Dew.”
Bu Ji’s face blushed. He clenched his teeth and said, “No, let’s fight one last time. I’ll use my low-tier true-saint cultivation. If you can ward off one full-strength move of mine, I’ll give you all the Ning True Saint Dew in my bottle. How does that sound?”
“Pst. You’re shameless.”
A girl giggled.
And then, a blue being showed up in front of Heaven Pass Cave, and she was unfathomably fast.
Su Qingling was dressed in blue like an orchid, standing between Bu Ji and Zhang Ruochen. She said, “What’s the point of that? You might as well just use your real power.”
Bu Ji’s face turned redder. He said, “This is a fair fight.”
Su Qingling rolled her eyes and said, “You’re going to use the power of a true saint, and you call that a fair fight? Don’t you know the gap between Heaven Pass saints and true saints is enormous? And you’re asking a saint who’s just reached Heaven Pass Realm to ward off a full-strength attack of yours? Are you serious?”
Bu Ji said, “Why’re you defending outsiders, Qingling?”
Su Qingling smiled and said, “First of all, we’re all monks from Guanghan Field, so we’re all family to each other.
“Also, I wasn’t helping anyone, just stating a fact.”
Bu Ji dispersed her saint Qi and said, “Then I won’t attack him. It’s not a shame being defeated by someone with supreme body constitution.”
Zhang Ruochen had been observing Su Qingling the whole time. He noticed that she was incredibly fast, and that she might be stronger than Bu Ji.
Guanghan Field was indeed a giant field where there were lots of talents. The two people standing in front of him could already rival those on the ‘Hero Rank.’
Su Qingling stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “I’m Su Qingling from the Nine Spirits Race.”
Bu Ji held his fists and said to Zhang Ruochen, “I’m the twenty-seventh disciple of Supreme Saint Manjian, Bu Ji. Sorry for offending you just now. I should give you thirty drops of Ning True Saint Dew since I was defeated by you three times.”
“No rush.”
Zhang Ruochen looked calm and said, “You don’t need to suppress your cultivation. Just use all your strength. I’ll take that strike.
Both Bu Ji and Su Qingling were dazed.
Su Qingling looked at Bu Ji’s bottle, and she understood that Zhang Ruochen wanted all the Ning True Saint Dew.
“Haha!”
Bu Ji guffawed and said, “You can’t blame me now, Qingling. It’s he who wants to take my strike.
Su Qingling frowned as she couldn’t understand Zhang Ruochen. Did he reserve his power when he was fighting Bu Ji?
Su Qingling couldn’t help but warn Zhang Ruochen, “The gap between true realm and Heaven Pass Realm is enormous. You’ve got to think about it again. If Bu Ji can’t control his power, you might be injured heavily. This is just a trial battle. No need to be so serious.”
“No problem,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Su Qingling looked at Zhang Ruochen, and she saw how tranquil he was. Her heart skipped a beat.
She had only seen that look from one person, her grandpa Supreme Saint Nine Spirits.
That look was calm and confident. He seemed to have been through thousands of life or death situations, and he had seen all the ways of the world.
His state of mind was at the same level as the supreme saints who had refined for thousands of years.
Bu Ji didn’t use all his power. Instead, he used low-tier true-saint cultivation. Even so, the power ripples on his body surged after activating the supreme battle soul again.
The heaven and earth turned into a giant whirlpool, and the golden lion was standing at the center of the whirlpool.
“Careful! It’s not easy to take this move.”
Bu Ji’s hair waved, and his muscles bulged. Meanwhile, his supreme saint battle soul rushed forward, releasing the power of the Supreme Saint Golden Lion.
Zhang Ruochen also had to use all his strength now.
He took out the Abyss Ancient Sword from his space ring. He held the sword handle tightly, infusing the sword with saint Qi.
Whoosh!
Destruction of thousand patterns burst out of the Abyss Ancient Sword.
Zhang Ruochen took a step forward and used the intent of Sword Seven, wielding his sword and clashing with the golden lion battle soul.
Bang!
Sword Qi and the power of the beast emperor spread everywhere.
Zhang Ruochen and Bu Ji stepped back at the same time.
“It… Was a tie…”
Bu Qingling found it impossible to believe as she’d never thought that supreme body constitution could be that forceful.
Bu Ji was also dazed. He took a look at his hands and Zhang Ruochen who was standing across from him. He squeezed out a smile and said, “No wonder you have supreme body constitution.”
Su Qingling tried to behave calmly. She walked to Zhang Ruochen with her hands behind her back, looked at him and said, “I see you also practice sword way. I saw the sword intent you just mobilized, and I reckon it comes from the Taoist Line, doesn’t it?”
“Taoist Line?” Zhang Ruochen mumbled.
‘Wordless Sword Manual’ was the supreme manual of Taichi Way, and it had been stored in the sword pavilion ever since Taichi Way was founded. It was at least ten million years old.
However, Heaven World was only one hundred thousand years old.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t know whether it was because ‘Wordless Sword Manual’ was spread to Heaven World a hundred thousand years ago, or if it was that there were lots of similarities between the sword way of Taoist Line and ‘Wordless Sword Manual.’
Zhang Ruochen asked, “What’s the Taoist Line?”
“I see you just came to Heaven World, so you don’t know anything yet.”
Su Qingling shook her head and said, “There’re more than eight thousand fields in Heaven World, and each field is a great power. However, there’re some powers that don’t belong to any of the fields, and the Taoist Line is one of them.”
“The Taoist Line is an enormous power, especially the first holy land of Taoism, Five Elements Temple. Taoist great beings for all the fields gather there and talk about ideas and the experience of refining.”
Bu Ji walked toward Zhang Ruochen and looked at his space ring. He noticed that Zhang Ruochen had taken his sword from that ring. Obviously, it was a storage valuable.
“Did Moon Goddess give you that space valuable? I also have a space valuable, but it has a very small inner space. Your ring looks delicate. I reckon the inner space is enormous, isn’t it?”
Bu Ji stared at the space ring and took out a storage bag.
Zhang Ruochen grabbed the storage bag and released mind power to inspect it.
After a while, Zhang Ruochen let go of the bag and shook his head. The space inscriptions and weapon-refining methods of that storage bag were totally different from what was recorded on the ‘Time and Space Secret Guide.’
And besides, they were too primitive.
Obviously, the person who had made the storage bag didn’t come from the same line as he did.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “Are there many monks in Heaven World who practice the space way?”
