Chapter 2518: From Afar a Dog, Up Close Zhang Ruochen

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xue Lingxian walked into the hall. Holding the stone sword with both hands, he tapped the ground and said, “We can discuss all the conditions, but I need to take the Tensho Compass with me.”

The people in the hall remained calm, but the atmosphere became tense.

With Xue Lingxian and Bai Qing’er as the leaders, they formed two sides facing the other.

Bai Qing’er stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Can he decide for you?”

Zhang Ruochen shrugged, smiled, and said, “The elders in the sect are strong. In addition, they are quite elderly. It’s inevitable for their temper to be bad. After sleeping for 100,000 years, their hostility is also naturally stronger. However, since the senior has spoken, wouldn’t I be disrespecting him if I don’t support him?”

Xue Lingxian looked very young.

However, Zhang Ruochen was the current leader of the Sect of the Blood God, while Xue Lingxian was the top disciple of the Blood God and the first divine son of the Blood God sect. Naturally, he could be considered a senior in the sect.

Looking at Xue Lingxian’s attitude, Zhang Ruochen confirmed his guess.

He and Granny Begonia had come to the Infernal Court to seize the Tensho Compass. It was likely that it had something to do with rescuing the Lord of Nephilim Island. Otherwise, Xue Lingxian would not show such a need to take the Tensho Compass.

Whoever takes ownership of the Tensho Compass would become the most challenging part of the negotiation.

Fei Zhong felt uneasy, and he quietly retreated to a spot in the corner.

Bai Qing’er weighed the pros and cons in her heart, “I can give you the Tensho Compass, but it’s still a Divine Artifact. What will you exchange with me? I heard that Kunlun has ten Divine Artifacts. You can exchange either one of them with me.”

Granny Begonia said, “How can the Divine Artifacts of Kunlun be lost to the outside world? Besides, we don’t control the ten Divine Artifacts. You can choose another condition!”

“Divine Artifacts are priceless. We can only exchange them for the same. This is the biggest concession I’ve made! If we can’t negotiate, then let’s fight. To be honest, the both of you can’t do anything to me.”

Bai Qing’er had never been a weak person.

Moreover, she doesn’t exclude using fighting as a method to solve problems. It was the most effective and direct method.

Whoever had the more considerable might would be in charge.

Xue Lingxian didn’t want to say anything more and was the most direct. He slashed out with the stone sword in his hand.

This sword was as fast as lightning and pierced through space and time.

Whoosh

The sword cut through the air.

Bai Qing’er appeared behind the Xue Lingxian at the palace gate.

Due to her speed, Fei Zhong could not see what had happened with his cultivation. He only knew that the Xue Lingxian seemed to have attacked. He did not see how Bai Qing’er managed to avoid it.

Fei Zhong was extremely shocked. As a Supreme Saint of the Paramount Realm, was he worthy of the word “Paramount”?

However, after thinking about it, he realized that he was already one of the strongest among the Supreme Saints of the Paramount Realm.

Xue Lingxian certainly knew that Bai Qing’er was standing behind him. His gaze was very calm as he said, “You are the strongest cultivator I have seen who has cultivated the Path of Flowing Light under divinity, including the Middle Ages period.”

“Is that so? That sword of yours still had some tricks up its sleeve. Kunlun is indeed worthy of being the eternal world that will never perish. It is also worthy of being the starting fuse of war between the Celestial and Infernal Court at the end of the Middle Ages. Even though it is dead, it is still not yet vanquished,” Bai Qing’er said.

Zhang Ruochen’s face was a little hard to look at. Before this, Bai Qing’er had never revealed the Path of Flowing Light.

If she had used the Path of Flowing Light, it would have been extremely difficult for Zhang Ruochen to escape from her even if he was 30 miles away.

It was not unusual for Bai Qing’er to avoid using the Path of Flowing Light.

First of all, with her cultivation and strength, she did not need to go all out to kill Zhang Ruochen.

Second, with the presence of the Intergold Tiger, even if she caught up with Zhang Ruochen, could she really kill him?

Since she knew that Zhang Ruochen had another purpose for staying by her side and she could not kill him, there was no need for her to reveal her trump card.

This was a woman that Zhang Ruochen could not see through even though how hard he tried!

Xue Lingxian asked, “Who are you?”

To be asked this question by Xue Lingxian, it was obvious that Bai Qing’er had become of utmost importance in his heart.

“Bai Qing’er, the daughter of Empress Bai and ruler of the Enchanteur Chamber,” Zhang Ruochen said.

“The Enchanteur Chamber can’t raise such a proud and arrogant daughter. She must have a deeper background.”

When Granny Begonia said this, she had already activated her spiritual power. Stalks of Begonia flowers formed into an endless sea of flowers, filling the Sevenstar Imperial Palace and the vast space outside.

The fragrance of the flowers assailed her nose, but it carried a hidden killing intent underneath.

Every cultivator would be under Granny Begonia’s control in this sea of flowers.

Activating her spiritual power was to suppress Bai Qing’er’s Path of Flowing Light.

Bai Qing’er looked at Granny Begonia in surprise, and her body was not affected at all. She strolled leisurely in the sea of flowers and said, “I found something very interesting. Now, there are three cultivators from Kunlun in front of me. However, you all come from three different eras. Your ages are at least 100,000 years different from each other, right?”

“Why is it so strange? Could it be that the previous superiors of Kunlun knew that there was a catastrophe in the Middle Ages, so they hid the top talents of each era and let them wake up in this era? Oh, I remember now. Saint Monk Xumi is the Master of Time and Space and is also known as the Buddha of Future. How could he not see the future?”

It was no wonder that Bai Qing’er had such doubts.

It must be known that very few cultivators in the world could withstand a single blow from Bai Qing’er without dying.

Even fewer cultivators could catch her attention.

However, the three cultivators from Kunlun in front of her had reached a level that she had to take seriously. How could a macroworld on the verge of destruction have such power?

It was impossible.

Even by selecting one out of the four major worlds of the Celestial Court, it could not muster such a grand lineup by itself.

However, it would make sense if this macroworld were once the most powerful in the universe and had preserved the best talents of each era.

Saint Monk Xumi, known as the Buddha of Future, could not have been unaware of the calamity that would befall Kunlun. Even if there were only a chance of it happening, he would have made some preparations in advance to leave a seed for the rise of Kunlun in the future. The source of this content is Novᴇ(l)Fɪre.net

People like Xue Lingxian were the seeds for the rise of Kunlun again.

Zhang Ruochen knew that many monks in Kunlun had fallen into various deep periods of sleep that could resist the passage of time and the catastrophe of the Yuanhui Tribulations. However, he did not expect Bai Qing’er to be so intelligent that she could see the big picture with a little clue and work it out herself.

As expected, geniuses who could reach the Yuanhui level must be at the peak of intelligence and martial arts.

Bai Qing’er didn’t seem to see the expression in the eyes of Zhang Ruochen, Granny Begonia, and Xue Lingxian. She was still pondering something and said, “As far as I know, the gods of Kunlun didn’t die completely in the war of gods that happened at the end of the Middle Ages.”

“The daughter of Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations, Princess Shenba, married to TrueGod Xuanyi of the Heavenly Realm.”

“The Lord of Nephilim Island, known as the Grand Supreme Master of Arrays, was imprisoned in the Fane of Destiny.”

“There are rumors that the Hoth Emperor once let go of a powerful figure in Kunlun. That powerful figure is most likely still alive.”

“The eldest disciple of Saint Monk Xumi was named Master Fangcun, who was pursued by Asurendra Barasingha 100,000 years ago and fled to the Searock Bastion. He might not have died over there.”

“It is said that Chi Xingtian, the lord of Bluelynx from the Fane of Ninelynx, was beheaded but did not die. His head was refined into the Xingtian Pot by the Nether Hall, and his body turned into a giant demon without reason and thought. Later, he was subdued by the Master of The Rāhu Mountains and became a general demon guardian.”

“It is said that the master of the Avīci Pavilion was once an unmatched figure in Kunlun.”

“If these gods who once shook the world could return to Kunlun, then it would instantly become a powerful world. Those geniuses left behind from various eras would definitely break through and achieve divinity with their protection. By then, even if Kunlun’s strength is not in the top 10 of the Celestial Court ten thousand, it would still be very easy to enter the top 100 and top 50.”

Bai Qing’er smiled and said, “Compared to deities, our scheme is on a far smaller scale! Even if Kunlun was already beyond redemption, it is still like a skinny camel with an unimaginable heritage and knowledge.”

“Let me think about it carefully. The purpose of you taking the Tensho Compass is to find the Fane of Origin and pave the way for the rise of Kunlun? Could it be to find the Xingtian Pot and awaken Chi Xingtian’s memory? Or… wait, I know I have understood your goal. You must be doing it for a certain person. Only when he escapes can he hold up the entire Kunlun like a stabilizing force. When that happens, the gods of the Infernal Court will be terrified.”

Xue Lingxian’s palm wrapped around the stone sword. Killing intent surged from his body.

In the hall, Swordwill condensed into a solid form and turned into thousands of shadow swords.

“She must die today,” he said.

Zhang Ruochen understood that they had an irreconcilable conflict with Bai Qing’er.

Bai Qing’er will never give away a Divine Artifact, but they had to take the Tensho Compass.

Moreover, Bai Qing’er seemed to have seen through some of the secrets of Kunlun, so there’s even less chance they would spare her life. There was no right or wrong in the world, just different viewpoints from everyone.

Zhang Ruochen had been prepared to advance and retreat together with Xue Lingxian and Granny Begonia. He held the Ugyen Cudgel in one hand and the Zangshan Demonic Mirror in the other. Dense Intergold Precept Marks appeared all over his body, and a divine shadow of a tiger could be seen behind him.

Xue Lingxian said, “It’s hard for me to find an opponent. I want a fair fight with her.”

“Will our victory determine whoever owns the Tensho Compass?” Bai Qing’er asked.

Zhang Ruochen was afraid that Xue Lingxian would agree, and he hurriedly said, “Elderly senior, how can there be fairness in this world? When Miss Bai took the Tensho Compass from me with her cultivation of the Paramount Realm, she didn’t think about whether it was fair. So you can’t represent our will.”

“Kunlun must obtain the Tensho Compass by all means.” Granny Begonia also expressed her stance.

Xue Lingxian was displeased that Zhang Ruochen kept referring to him as “Elderly senior.” However, a big battle was imminent, so he didn’t react and said, “I only represent myself.”

“That’s fine,” Bai Qing’er said.

She turned around, flew out of the hall, and pointed to the void.

Whoosh

A 30-meter-long Dimensional Rift appeared, splitting apart with a violent suction force.

“This place is not far from the Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt. Let’s enter the void space and fight.”

She flew in first.

Xue Lingxian turned into a streak of silver light and followed closely.

Only Zhang Ruochen, Fei Zhong, and Granny Begonia were left in the hall.

Fei Zhong saw that both Zhang Ruochen and Granny Begonia were staring at him. His heart tightened, and he immediately knelt on one knee, saying, “From now on, I am a cultivator of Kunlun.”

After experiencing Bai Qinger’s dream world, Fei Zhong’s spiritual will was destroyed. There was no possibility of him achieving divinity in this lifetime.

Granny Begonia snorted lightly. Dense begonia petals flew over and wrapped all around Fei Zhong.

“You guys… you guys… AHH”

Boom

With Fei Zhong’s blood-curdling scream, the flower petals exploded.

Bloody mist flew from the petals.

Fei Zhong’s body was nowhere to be found.

This was a spiritual power attack launched by Granny Begonia. Even an elite like Fei Zhong could not resist her spiritual power world.

“Ruochen, the empress must have told you about rescuing the Grand Supreme Master. The Tensho Compass is a treasure we must use. Only with it can we find the exact location of the Grand Supreme Master,” Granny Begonia said.

Zhang Ruochen looked outside the palace gate. He was worried about the battle between Xue Lingxian and Bai Qing’er. “I understand,” he said.

“You can’t blame your father for what happened in the past. Even if your mother had told you about some things, don’t believe it completely. There are some things that she doesn’t know the truth about. In this era, everyone has their own difficulties. They can’t help themselves,” said Granny Begonia.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes flashed with surprise. “Granny, do you know what happened back then?”

“Retrieve the Tensho Compass first. Now that you’ve grown up, you can take care of yourself. I’ll tell you everything I know,” said Granny Begonia meaningfully.

Granny Begonia thought that Zhang Ruochen had joined the Infernal Court because of the influence of the Blood Empress. In order to win back Zhang Ruochen’s heart and bring him back to Kunlun, she planned to tell him the truth.

Just as Zhang Ruochen and Granny Granny Begonia walked out of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace, a cloud of fire flew over from the horizon.

In the cloud of fire, a giant owl flew. It roared from afar, “Who are you, mysterious cultivator? Where is Zhang Ruochen’s corpse?”

Zhang Ruochen was stunned. Has Blackie been blinded?

Did he not recognize him?

Flying closer, Blackie slowed down and said softly, “Hey! It looks like a dog from afar, but it’s actually Zhang Ruochen up close.”

Zhang Ruochen’s forehead was covered in black lines.

There is no need to curse someone like that, right?

Not far away, Huang Tian, who was initially lying on the ground, stood up and distanced himself from Zhang Ruochen. He didn’t want to block Blackie’s line of sight.

Blackie didn’t put away the Eternal Fire on his body after he saw Zhang Ruochen. Instead, he became even more aggressive. He summoned the Grand Formation of Armageddon, which caused multiple weapons to swirl around him.

“Don’t think that you can hide from me by changing into Zhang Ruochen’s appearance. Hand over Zhang Ruochen’s body now,”

Zhang Ruochen did not want to mess with it. He was eager to enter the void space, so he released the Precepts of Dimension and used the dimensional method to tear open a Dimensional Gate.

“You want to prove that you are Zhang Ruochen by practicing the Path of Dimension? Haha, I’ve never seen such a ridiculous thing. Do you take me for an idiot?” Blackie sneered.
