Chapter 1294: 1294
The man beside Zhu Qingyi was Situ Fengcheng . He was the senior disciple of King Zhongying and the sub-general of the Qingtian Tribe army that charged into Red River Mansion . He controlled millions of soldiers and was a true sovereign .
Situ Chengfeng was close to two meters tall . He had broad shoulders and a muscular body . His features were defined as if carved with an axe . He radiated masculinity .
Voice deep and booming, he said, “Qingyi, Master always says you’re smart . I didn’t think you’d make such a basic mistake either . ”
“What mistake?” Zhu Qingyi stood up again . Holy light poured out of her body and all the blood on her disappeared . No longer seeming so pathetic, she recovered the elegance a top figure should have .
“Pei Yutian is on the Must-Kill List,” Situ Fengcheng said . “That means that there’s no way he’ll join the Immortal Vampires . What use is there to try convincing him?”
“Senior Brother, you are right . ” A sly smile appeared on Zhu Qingyi’s face . “But it’s not entirely useless . At least, I could drag things out and wait for you to come save me . ”
The entire time, Pei Yutian stood quietly on the side . His aura gradually sharpened . Some ancient lines appeared on his stone sword . These patterns were shockingly similar to the geographical pattern of the northern region .
Situ Fengcheng put his hands behind his back . His armor shone with metallic light under the moon . “Wutian of the east, Wufa of the west, Xinshu of the south, Yutian of the north, Wan Zhaoyi of the nine counties of the central region . I heard long ago that the Five Heroes are the strongest humans in the recent centuries . Now that I’ve seen you today, you didn’t disappoint . Your attainments in the broadsword are enough to become a Broadsword Saint of the north . ”
“Situ Fengcheng,” Pei Yutian said, “I’ve heard your name more than once . I’ve already killed 42 Blood Saints . I hope you’ll become the 43rd . ”
Situ Fengcheng smiled . “You’re not a bad prey . Unfortunately, I have other things today . I won’t fight you . ”
“That’s not up to you . If you want to leave, you need my permission . ”
“If I want to leave, you can’t stop me . ”
Situ Fengcheng chuckled . He pointed forward and an earsplitting boom sounded in that direction . A figure wrapped in 64 layers of blood light shattered a mountain and walked out of it .
It was a middle-aged man covered in bloody patterns . He grasped a saintly sword and had six more on his back . Sword Qi shot out of him, going directly toward Pei Yutian .
Boom .
The Broadsword and Sword Qi from that strike tore apart the land . Even the clouds in the sky were torn . It became a place of death . Any being that ventured in would die .
Situ Fengcheng and Zhu Qingyi had already retreated to 500 miles away . Situ Fengcheng’s eyes narrowed . Staring at the windy and dusty area, he said, “As expected of Pei Yutian . He truly is an extremely powerful figure . He’s only cultivated for a few centuries, but he’s already so strong . He must be killed as soon as possible . ”
Zhu Qingyi also inhaled sharply . Even if she used all the techniques she knew, she probably still couldn’t take three of Pei Yutian’s attacks .
“Senior Brother, where did you find that Sword Way figure? He can even counter Pei Yutian . ”
“That’s a human Sword Saint,” Situ Fengcheng said .
“Sword Saint?”
Zhu Qingyi couldn’t stay calm . She was shocked . After all, there were only two human Sword Saints in the entire northern region . They were both old creatures who’d lived for more than 500 years . Each one was like a star that could shock the entire world with one strike .
“This man is Wang Beilie, once the leader of the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians . After the Blood Emperor captured him, he was turned into a blood slave . Now, he works for the Qingtian Tribe . I thought that he was strong enough to kill Pei Yutian, but I couldn’t have imagined that Pei Yutian would be this strong . ”
“After becoming a blood slave,” Zhu Qingyi said, “Wang Beilie’s mind would be reduced . He won’t be able to perform with his original abilities . Otherwise, Pei Yutian wouldn’t be able to stop him . ”
Situ Fengcheng stopped looking at the battlefield . Gazing at Zhu Qingying’s beautiful features, he said, “Master must have sent you to Red River Mansion for a secret mission, right?”
“I indeed have an important mission,” Zhu Qingyi answered . “Pick some powerful Saints from your army . I need to hurry over . ”
…
Zhang Ruochen brought Huang Yanchen and Qing Mo, escaping to tens of thousands of miles away with extreme speed .
Gradually, the sharira’s power calmed and Zhang Ruochen’s speed recovered to normal . The three didn’t stop . They continued to flee like crazy while erasing traces of their auras so the Immortal Vampires couldn’t find them .
Red River Mansion had indeed gone up in flames . Everywhere they went there was scorched dirt and it was hard to see a living being .
Some towns had sank into the ground from a strike, becoming a sky ditch . Other cities were destroyed and filled with dried corpses . Mountains were dyed red with blood . Rivers were filled with floating corpses that emanated disgusting smells .
It was too bloody . Rather than a human world, it was like a world of death .
Continuing forward, Zhang Ruochen’s group ran into some small Immortal Vampire armies . They killed through and finally reached a human city that hadn’t been conquered yet .
This city pass was very majestic . The city walls were hundreds of feet tall . They were imposing . From far away, it looked like a black mountain on the horizon .
“Zhilin Pass is the last major pass within Red River Mansion,” Huang Yanchen said . “It’s also the place where the imperial court and Immortal Vampires are fighting the most intensely . Once this pass is broken through, the entire Red River Mansion will fall . Shall we go in and look for information?”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head . “It’s best not to alert the strong figures of the imperial court, so we don’t get attacked on both sides . Let’s go through the place with the weakest defenses and go straight to Black Wind County . ”
Zhilin Pass wasn’t far from Black Wind County . They were almost at the destination .
The imperial court’s defense wasn’t without holes . Zhang Ruochen’s group was able to pass through easily and continue toward Black Wind County .
The next few days, Zhang Ruochen kept absorbing the Spiritual Power from the sharira . His Spiritual Power improved quickly . He had already reached the peak of level 52 .
“With this speed, I should reach level 53 in a few days . ”
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t care about anything else now . He put his all into raising his combat abilities . This way, he wouldn’t be helpless the next time he met Zhu Qingyi .
He could only think of a way to resolve the disadvantages of using the sharira in the future .
Can I use spatial power with only Spiritual Power?
Zhang Ruochen’s biggest trump card was the power of time and space . If he still had these two abilities, he wouldn’t have to escape so pathetically when he met Zhu Qingyi .
However, these two needed to be supported by Holy Qi to be activated . Zhang Ruochen only had blood vessels constructed from Spiritual Power . He didn’t have meridians and Saintly Meridians . He couldn’t use Holy Qi at all .
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t willing . Spiritual Power can manipulate Spiritual Qi . I might be able to use spatial power with the help of Spiritual Qi .
“Spatial crack . ”
Zhang Ruochen used Spiritual Power as the foundation and Spiritual Qi as the medium . He raised his arm and cut down . The space didn’t rip apart, but just trembled .
However, the slight tremble made Zhang Ruochen overjoyed . “There’s something . ”
Next, Zhang Ruochen took out the Time and Space Secret Guide and started studying the ways of space seriously .
Before becoming a Saint, Zhang Ruochen had always been focused on cultivating palm and sword techniques . Now, he was finally able to calm down and study space .
Space has no boundaries but exists for eternity .
By “no boundaries,” it means that any point in space can be a starting point .
By “exists for eternity,” it means that space will always appear in the current time .
…
The knowledge contained in space was very abstruse and vast . Zhang Ruochen only dared to research it closely after becoming a Saint . There wouldn’t have been any advantages in going too deeply before that .
As for the power of time, Zhang Ruochen still didn’t dare to touch it . If he sank into an illusion of time, he might break down entirely .
His eyes focused on one page . It described a technique of space—Spatial Twist . He’d cultivated this before too, but his knowledge of the technique remained in the shallowest level . If he met a true top figure, it would lose effectiveness . Any random attack from the enemy would pass through the distorted space .
After studying this technique closely, Zhang Ruochen realized that Spatial Twist was actually very powerful . It was filled with endless variations . Not only could it be used to resolve an enemy attack, it could also change an attack’s direction and send it back to the enemy .
Other than that, Spatial Twist could also be used to change a mountain’s shape, the direction of a river, break through formations, and even create spatial mazes . No material within space could escape from Spatial Twist .
“Distort the space on either side and connect them, stabilizing them together . That’s true Spatial Twist . What I did before was only distorting the two sides . I didn’t connect them, so it wasn’t as stable . It had limited power too . ”
After understanding the reasoning, Zhang Ruochen began cultivating Spatial Twist again .
He raised both hands at once and released Spiritual Power . He used Spiritual Qi to change the rules of space, distorting the space on the left and right .
“Connect,” he uttered .
He put his hands together in the middle . The distorted space on either side connected immediately .
Whoosh!
The path before the carriage had been dozens of meters wide . After the space distorted, the path disappeared, closing in immediately . The sky-reaching trees on either side crashed suddenly . Some trunks and branches actually overlapped . Many leaves fluttered down .
Even the spatial structure was changed forever .
“The path disappeared!” Qing Mo, who’d been steering the chariot, was frightened . She hurriedly controlled the savage beast pulling the chariot to make it stop .
Huang Yanchen wasn’t surprised at all . Instead, her red lips curled up into a knowing and beautiful smile . “As expected,” she murmured to herself . “One can only become stronger by becoming desperate . His potential is boundless . ”
