Feng Yan transmitted his voice to tell Zhang Ruochen as he boarded the Boat of Truth, “Don’t use Saint Figure Rune and saint pills that can increase your power, otherwise, it’ll be more difficult.”
Whoosh!
Ten Boats of Truth sailed at the same time.
All ten creatures on the boats were absolute saints and half-step saint kings, representing the best of their large fields. However, the Boat of Truth started to shake fiercely the second they set sail.
“So difficult to control it.”
The Boat of Truth that Zhang Ruochen was sailing on was also shaking. He felt like he was sailing on a tiny thread instead of being on the ocean, and besides, there were constant waves hitting the boat.
Bang!
An absolute saint fell into the ocean.
He was only hundreds of feet away from the shore, which meant he failed right after he set off.
All the other monks who were trying to get past the ocean realized that it was way more difficult than they thought to pass Ocean of Truth.
Fang Yan said, “They don’t even know what kind of challenges they’re facing in their first time, so they can’t come up with a solution instantly, which is why it’s almost impossible to get to the exit of the first level of Ocean Domain. It’ll be easier the second time.”
Wang Xu didn’t leave. He asked, “How far do you think he can get?”
Both Wang Xu and Fang Yan reached the exit of the first level of the ocean domain the first time they tried, yet neither of them passed it.
On the ocean.
Saint power gushed out of all the apertures of Zhang Ruochen, covering the Boat of Truth and trying to balance it.
The other eight creatures were also struggling to balance their Boats of Truth, sailing slowly.
Suddenly, a wind blew toward them when they were ten miles away from the shore. The wind was so fierce that it dispersed the saint power that was covering the Boats of Truth.
Flop!
Flop!
…
Four creatures fell into the ocean.
It’s only been ten miles, yet half the monks have fallen into the ocean. No wonder even Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine could only sail for twenty-two miles. Ling Feiyu reached the exit of the first level of ocean domain probably because of her saint-king-level cultivation, Zhang Ruochen thought.
There were only five Boats of Truth left on the ocean.
The Boat of Truth Zhang Ruochen was sailing was the most stable one, and the second one, which was one mile away from Zhang Ruochen, was sailed by Buddha Xinshu.
Buddha Xinshu was a disciple of Death Zen Ancestor, and he was also one of the five great beings on the ‘Five Heroes List.’
“Buddha Xinshu was taught by Death Zen Ancestor, and he’s refined lots of godly blood and godly bones, reading millions of Buddha records. He has tremendous cultivation. He even refined with me in the godly body recently to comprehend the mysteries of the Gods, which greatly improved his power. However, Zhang Ruochen’s still better than him,” said Wan Zhaoyi.
Chen Wutian said, “We only refined Sub-Complete Body Constitution, yet Zhang Ruochen has Supreme Complete Body Constitution. This is the gap between us. If you have Complete Body Constitution, you might be able to rival Zhang Ruochen in the future.”
Wan Zhaoyi shook his head and said, “The biggest difference between us and Zhang Ruochen isn’t body constitution.”
Flop!
Another monk fell into the water.
After twenty miles, only Zhang Ruochen and Buddha Xinshu were still on the boats. As for the others, they’d all failed.
Spiritual Flame Demonic Concubine was a bit surprised. “There’s another half-step saint king still on the boat beside Zhang Ruochen. Can’t believe there’s another great being like that.”
Normally, only those who were on the ‘Saints Merits Rank’ could sail more than twenty miles far the first time.
Mu Lingxi said, “He’s a monk from Kunlun’s Field, Xinshu. He was one of the greatest beings in the past era.”
Mu Lingxi needed to look up to Buddha Xinshu before. Now, her cultivation had caught up with him, and she also gained the inheritance of the Ice and Fire Phoenix, yet Buddha Xinshu still trumped her on lots of aspects.
Ling Feiyu said, “Saintly way rules are lacking in Kunlun’s Field, so it was impressive that Xinshu could reach that level. It requires perseverance and intelligence. His cultivation will surge now that he’s in Heaven World.”
Ling Feiyu was stuck at first-step saint king when she was in Kunlun’s Field, yet after coming to Heaven World, she quickly became a second-step saint king and now was very close to becoming a third-step saint king.
It was impossible to improve cultivation like that in Kunlun’s Field.
Feng Yan said, “Kunlun’s Field is a mysterious large field where lots of prominent beings were born. They were trapped before, and now that their shackles are gone, it’s their time to shine.”
“Ugh.”
Wang Xu sneered, as he didn’t agree with what Feng Yan said.
After twenty-three miles, Buddha Xinshu couldn’t balance his Boat of Truth anymore, falling into the ocean, yet it was still amazing to the monks on the shore.
Zhang Ruochen was still sailing, and he saw a light screen several miles away.
He couldn’t get to the second level of the ocean domain until he passed that light screen.
The closer he got to the light screen, the stronger the winds and waves were, almost about to blow Zhang Ruochen and his Boat of Truth away.
Zhang Ruochen kept releasing his saint power, covering his Boat of Truth. He only got to the light screen after half an hour.
Everyone on the shore was amazed.
“No wonder he’s the first on the ‘Saints Merits Rank.’”
“Only one in ten thousand can reach the exit the first time.”
“Let’s see how long he can last at the exit.”
…
Zhang Ruochen looked up while controlling his Boat of Truth.
The light screen gleamed with saint light.
Sizzle!
Traces of saint light intertwined with each other, forming a saint general wearing silver armor. He was transparent, with the cultivation of a half-step saint king.
“You can get to the second level if you defeat me. You can choose your weapon now,” said the silver-armored saint general.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t plan to use the Abyss Ancient Sword. Instead, he triggered Hundred Saints Blood Armor to cover his entire body, and he took out the purple godly stone.
“I need to warn you. That purple godly stone isn’t permitted here. I’ll use three times the power to fight you if you use it,” said the silver-armored saint general.
“Can’t believe a saint general formed by saint light is so intelligent.”
Zhang Ruochen then put back his purple godly stone and said, “I won’t use any weapon.”
“Okay.”
The silver-armored saint general formed a fist print and released great saint power, hitting Zhang Ruochen, raging waves on the ocean.
Zhang Ruochen immediately mobilized his saint Qi, trying to perform Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm to defeat the silver-armored saint general.
However, his Boat of Truth started to shake fiercely the second he mobilized his saint Qi.
“No!”
He’d been using his saint Qi to balance the Boat of Truth before, but now that he was using part of the saint Qi to perform palm techniques, the Boat of Truth started to lose control.
Before Zhang Ruochen thought of a strategy to deal with it, he was almost hit by the palm print from the silver-armored saint general.
Aside from the palm print, the waves under him tumbled more and more fiercely.
Zhang Ruochen had to control his Boat of Truth to make sure it wouldn’t be toppled, and then, he formed a weak palm print, clashing with that from the silver-armored saint general.
Bang!
That fist force knocked Zhang Ruochen and the Boat of Truth away.
Just as he was about to fall into the ocean, he immediately focused all his saint power to his feet, standing on the Boat of Truth.
Boom!
The Boat of Truth landed on the ocean again, and the water tumbled fiercely, yet Zhang Ruochen was still standing on the boat as if they were one.
The silver-armored saint general didn’t give Zhang Ruochen any time to think. He formed a second fist print, and its power got stronger.
Zhang Ruochen suddenly came up with an idea. “I can use my mind power to control the Boat of Truth to fight the silver-armored saint general.”
Zhang Ruochen released all his mind power to control the Boat of Truth.
And then, Zhang Ruochen used seventy percent of his saint power to fight the silver-armored saint general while using the rest of the thirty percent to control the Boat of Truth.
Boom!
Zhang Ruochen was knocked away again, and his arms became sore.
That silver-armored saint general had better power and techniques than Zhang Ruochen. He fought not like a half-step saint king, but like an experienced saint king.
