Sword Master Dongliu, Xue Lingfeng, and Li Mu were standing at the periphery of Pluto Winter Cold Ocean, and they were all dazed by the fight.
Li Mu said, “He’s killed four first marquises. Those first marquises are so unlucky to encounter Zhang Ruochen.”
Li Mu was one of the top three great beings in Tianmu Field. However, he only managed to severely injure two first marquises. He’d never killed a first marquis yet.
For one thing, first marquises were very powerful, and they even had the ability to survive first-step saint kings.
For the other, first marquises were very sturdy. Unless their lower abdomen was pierced through, or their saint sources were taken away, or their bodies were crushed into pieces, they could still survive.
Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen had Sword Technique of Time and Divine Fire Jingmie, so those first marquises couldn’t escape him at all, and besides, their life forces couldn’t be more fragile when it came to Divine Fire Jingmie.
Sword Master Dongliu said, “Zhang Ruochen would never use Sword Technique of Time easily. When he performs it, it’s the time for him to kill his enemy.
Xue Lingfeng said, “Perhaps he worries that his enemies might find a way to deal with it if he performs it too often. There’re many restrictions when it comes to Sword Technique of Time. Dongliu, you’re the only one who fought Sword Technique of Time twice and survived, and you’re one of the best sword warriors among your peers. Do you have any methods to counteract Sword Technique of Time?”
Sword Master Dongliu said, “Perhaps there’re some ways to counteract it, but Zhang Ruochen never performs Sword Technique of Time when you’re prepared. He’ll do it when you’re nervous so that he can kill you with one strike.
“Which means unless you’re way more powerful than Zhang Ruochen, you’ll still be killed even if you know how to crack Sword Technique of Time.”
Sword Master Dongliu left out something, which was that the reason he survived Technique of Time both times was that Zhang Ruochen had spared his life on purpose. Otherwise, he would’ve been dead.
However, Sword Master Dongliu didn’t understand why Zhang Ruochen didn’t choose to kill him.
Perhaps it was because there weren’t any real grudges between the two of them.
Even if they fought against each other multiple times, it was because they came from two different fields and had to fight for their mother fields.
Or because Zhang Ruochen spared his life to deal with Luosha great beings.
“We’ll only stand a chance of getting the Merits Record Wall if our power gets back to the pinnacle level.”
Sword Master Dongliu, Xue Lingfeng, and Li Mu stopped talking. Instead, they swallowed healing pills and tried to heal themselves.
Zhang Ruochen had killed Marquis Blood Rain and Marquis Xiebai, which intimidated the other six first marquises, forcing Marquis Chengxuan and Marquis Xianling to join the fight again.
Everyone who could become a first marquis was incredible. They all realized what Zhang Ruochen was really aiming for, so they all gathered together toward the Merits Record Wall.
Demonic Sound suppressed two first marquises by herself and severely injured one of them.
However, those two first marquises were strong enough to prevent Demonic Sound from getting the Merits Records Wall.
Zhang Ruochen got to the Merits Record Wall before the first marquises did and wielded Divine Fire Jingmie.
The Divine Fire Jingmie formed a fiery cloud.
One of the first marquis was shocked seeing the blue fiery cloud dashing toward him. He still remembered how the other first marquises were burned to death.
He immediately tried to dodge it.
Whoosh!
A trace of black sword light pierced through the forehead of that first marquis, and suddenly, half of his head was crushed.
At the next moment, Zhang Ruochen stepped on his shoulders and landed on top of the Merits Record Wall.
Bong!
That first marquis fell into Pluto Winter Cold Ocean. No one could tell whether he survived it or not.
Marquis Chengxuan, Marquis Xianling and the other marquises saw it when they arrived.
“Marquis Juqing!”
Marquis Thousand Feather yelled and mobilized all his feathers, which went into Pluto Ice Cold Ocean, trying to save Marquis Juqing.
Although Marquis Juqing’s head was crushed by Zhang Ruochen, Marquis Thousand Feather knew that his lower abdomen wasn’t in his head.
Zhang Ruochen waved his arms, and a cluster of golden light flew out.
That was the Buddha sarira.
Bang Bang!
Those feathers were all crushed into ashes by the sarira.
“Careful! Zhang Ruochen wants to use Marquis Juqing as bait to lure us there.”
Other first marquises wielded their saint weapons, clashing with the Buddha Emperor sarira to save Marquis Thousand Feather.
Zhang Ruochen took back his Buddha Emperor sarira and held it in his hand, glancing at all the first marquises.
Whoosh!
Demonic Sound flew toward Zhang Ruochen and landed behind him, staring at them with a smile.
It seemed that they were being encircled. However, the nine first marquises who were encircling them looked more solemn.
Zhang Ruochen had already killed four first marquises and knocked a fifth one into the ocean. They were all scared by that.
Zhang Ruochen fought almost ten first marquises by himself, yet nobody could even touch him. Nobody would believe this.
Those first marquises all thought they could crush Zhang Ruochen, yet they found out that the enemy was way stronger than they’d thought.
Lord Lingquan was furious seeing that. He yelled, “Useless. He’s nothing but a human true saint, and you can’t even fight against him? How did you become first marquises in the first place?”
Just when Lord Lingquan wanted to go fight Zhang Ruochen himself, he was stopped by Sword Saint Jiuyou.
Sword Saint Jiuyou was severely injured after fighting Lord Lingquan for such a long time. He was bleeding like hell, and his bones cracked, yet he was still as vigorous as before.
“Damn you. Hunshi Six-Killing Fist, Heavenly Kill.”
Lord Lingquan was furious. If it weren’t for Sword Saint Jiuyou, Zhang Ruochen would’ve never killed two first marquises.
‘Heavenly Kill’ was the most powerful move of Hunshi Six-Killing Fist, which mobilized all the fist rules in Lord Lingquan’s body. Even the saint Qi in heaven and earth gathered toward him.
Boom!
Lord Lingquan performed a fist technique, and the fist force shook the ocean and the sky.
Even Zhang Ruochen, Demonic Sound, and the nine first marquises couldn’t help looking at the fist force, as they felt that it was almost touching him.
They couldn’t even imagine the pressure Sword Saint Jiuyou was going through as he fought Lord Lingquan.
“Heavenly Kill is the head of Six Killings, and it has the power of a middle-class saint spell. Perhaps Lord Lingquan can kill me with one strike.” Marquis Qianyu admired him.
Any girl would admire someone like Lord Lingquan, who was invincible on the battlefield.
“That fist…”
Zhang Ruochen looked solemn, as he was sure that Sword Saint Jiuyou wasn’t able to ward it off.
Was he going to die?
As for Sword Saint Jiuyou, it seemed that he didn’t know he was going to die soon. He went manic and yelled, “Haha! Kill! Kill! Kill!”
Sword Saint Jiuyou flew along the ocean, and there were nine saint swords with sword way forces that made the water tumble.
His body and the nine swords merged together, flying toward Lord Lingquan.
Every time he yelled ‘kill,’ his force would grow stronger.
When he yelled ‘kill’ the ninth time, Sword Saint Jiuyou’s body made a huge cracking sound, and his speed and forces surged.
Zhang Ruochen smiled. “Now it’s getting interesting.”
Bang!
Lord Lingquan performed Heavenly Killing Fist Print, yet it was pierced through instantly by Sword Saint Jiuyou.
“He’s made a breakthrough?”
Lord Lingquan immediately spread his arms and activated the formation godly print on his back.
Whoosh!
The circular formation mark rushed out of Lord Lingquan’s chest and hit the Sword Way Xuangang wielded by Sword Saint Jiuyou.
Bang!
Lord Lingquan bounced to more than twenty miles away. Even with the protection of the formation, his blood Qi was still knocked to chaos while his organs hurt.
He was sure that he wouldn’t be able to ward it off without the formation.
All the nine first marquises surrounding the Merits Record Wall were all shocked that the human elder became a saint king during the battle.
“Go!”
Lord Lingquan gave an order and rushed to the Xuanwu Shell, riding it toward the Phoenix Nest.
The other nine first marquises all realized that Sword Saint Jiuyou, who had become a saint king, wasn’t someone they could match, so they all rushed onto the Xuanwu Shell toward the Phoenix Nest with Lord Lingquan.
“They didn’t even want their purple godly mountain?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head, but after shooting a glance at Sword Saint Jiuyou, he suddenly had some ominous presentiment, so he immediately rushed toward the Merits Record Wall with Demonic Sound.
“Leave the Merits Record Wall behind.”
Sword Saint Jiuyou took the purple godly mountain and chased Zhang Ruochen.
