God Emperor - Chapter 1533

Chapter 1533: Chapter 1533 - Formation Saint Master

Kaboom!

A large amount of Holy Qi spewed out of the underground saintly meridian of Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land . It shot through the air and connected with the sky . Everywhere that the Holy Qi passed by, the formation runes would be activated, shining with brilliant light .

A moment later, nine layers of white clouds shrouded the Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land . It was like a nine-story tower falling to the ground and looked very magnificent .

“Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation . ”

“The Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land actually has a formation saint master who laid down a grade eight formation . Who is this formation master? If he can give me pointers, I’ll definitely improve greatly in formations . ”

…

The cultivators outside the sacred land were all discussing this, finding it incredible .

After all, only someone who could lay down a grade eight formation could be known as a “formation saint master . ”

Each formation saint master had a respected status .

Not only would Saints and Saint Kings ask them for help . Sometimes, even top figures like Supreme Saints would ask for help from formation saint masters .

The Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land was only one of the dozen territories in Red Dragon Sacred Domain . It wasn’t that special, but it produced a Zhang Ruochen, so it was now a well-known land in the Shatuo Heavenly Domain . Many cultivators fought to join .

Now, it also had a formation saint master . It undoubtedly made the Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land even more famous .

Zhang Ruochen stood under the cliff and looked up . “Grade eight formation… Blackie, your attainments in formations are beyond my expectations . ”

Princess Luosha’s senior sister, Ji Hua, was also a formation saint master .

Ji Hua’s Thousand-star Formation had been a grade eight formation . It was extremely strong and almost wiped out the Saint army of the Shatuo Seven Fields .

This was why a formation saint master’s combat ability was terrifying .

Did Blackie have the same abilities as Ji Hua?

Blackie had a proud expression . “My Spiritual Power hasn’t recovered fully . Otherwise, I’d be able to do a grade nine formation too . ”

Zhang Ruochen knew that he shouldn’t praise it, because then it’ll get too cocky . So he said, “There are differences in the mightiness of grade eight formations too, right?”

“Of course,” Blackie said . “The more runes a formation has, and the more complex they are, the stronger the power . Even if they’re both grade eight formations, the power can be worlds away from each other if created by formation saint masters with different Spiritual Power . ”

“What level is the Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation among grade eight formations?” Zhang Ruochen wanted to be clearer .

“The Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation is obviously one of the best defensive grade eight formations . Merely the runes needed to create this can cover thousands of books and fill an entire library . A regular formation saint master can’t create it without studying for decades and experimenting countless times . ”

Blackie was even prouder .

Zhang Ruochen had some understanding of formations . He knew that building a high-level formation was more difficult than constructing a city .

“But…”

Blackie hesitated but still said honestly, “But my Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation still has many flaws . ”

“What do you mean?”

“Mainly, there are some abstruse formation runes that can only be carved with the help of special material . ”

“So you didn’t carve those abstruse runes into the Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation?” Zhang Ruochen asked .

“Couldn’t help it . The material for the runes is too hard to find . ”

Blackie naturally wouldn’t tell Zhang Ruochen that the more important reason was that its Spiritual Power wasn’t strong enough to carve those runes .

After hesitating some more, Blackie coughed and said, “Actually, a grade eight formation can kill a Saint King is mostly because it needs a formation soul to command it . The Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation that I created… I couldn’t find a suitable formation soul…ha…”

Zhang Ruochen was speechless . He knew that he’d overestimated Blackie again . “The formation is lacking runes and doesn’t have a formation soul . So, how much of the Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation’s power can it unleash?”

“About ten percent!”

Blackie’s voice was low, clearly feeling guilty . Then it said, “The Nine-Level Cloud Tower Formation is the top defensive formation, after all . A regular Saint King can’t break in even if it’s only ten percent of the power . You’ll need at least a fifth step Saint King to break in . ”

“A fifth step Saint King… That’s enough!”

Zhang Ruochen nodded softly . “A fifth step Saint King is already a strong figure among Saint Kings . If they attack with full power, the commotion would be great and Supreme Saint Manjian would be able to sense it immediately . With his cultivation, if he senses that someone broke into the Red Dragon Saint Domain, he could kill him even if he’s thousands of miles away . ”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t have to worry about the strongest enemies . The Moon Goddess and Supreme Saint Manjian would take care of them for him .

He only had to guard against enemies under the third step Saint King Realm . Their auras were weaker, so even if they attacked, Supreme Saints wouldn’t be able to sense them .

After all, a Supreme Saint had to cultivate and had their own matters too . They couldn’t pay attention to Zhang Ruochen at all times .

In addition, the Moon Goddess also wanted to push Zhang Ruochen to go, so she didn’t have him stay in Moon Goddess Mountain . Zhang Ruochen was where he was now because of the lessons he’d learned from cruel hardships .

He turned his palm and took out the Mercury Gourd .

Pouring Holy Qi in, the gourd grew larger and larger . Finally, it actually became a gourd mountain, floating in the sky .

The lid opened and a saint spring flowed out .

Whoosh!

The sweet spring poured out like an unending white waterfall .

Soon, a lake formed at the bottom of the Mercury Gourd .

“This saint spring was brought back from Zuling Field . Help me turn it all into Ning True Saint Dew . Also, a group of Half-Saints from the Sacred Central Empire will come over from Moon Goddess Mountain . At that time, you have to work hard to train them . ”

After giving these two orders, Zhang Ruochen put the Mercury Gourd away . He transformed into a streak of light and rushed into a cultivation residence to meditate .

The Universe World inside of him was sealed again by the Moon Goddess when he returned to the Heaven World . However, he’d taken out the Half-Saints beforehand .

They were still very pliable .

In order to pay Zhang Ruochen back, the Moon Goddess had the Half-Saints stay in Moon Goddess Mountain . They were baptized by the Moon Goddess with the Half-Saints of Guanghan Field, testing their bodies and saint souls .

Before, Zhang Ruochen and the Moon Goddess had agreed on one month . After one month, the Half-Saints would come to Mount Yuanxu Sacred Land .

In the end, the cultivators of the old Sacred Central Empire and Universe World were Zhang Ruochen’s heirs . He valued them the most .

After entering the cultivation residence, Zhang Ruochen immediately took out the Monument Shield and placed it on the stone table . He reached out to press onto the Time and Space Crystal .

Whoosh!

The space trembled .

The next moment, Zhang Ruochen entered the Time and Space Crystal . He sat cross-legged in the center .

He took out a bottle of Ning True Saint Dew and swallowed it, refining it .

In Zuling Field, Zhang Ruochen didn’t lack any cultivation resources and he had a large amount of Ning True Saint Dew . But he lacked time .

Now, he finally didn’t lack time, so he would naturally try to reach the peak of the Absolute Realm as soon as possible .

Two months later .

Zhang Ruochen refined 50,000 drops of Ning True Saint Dew . He emptied all the dew that he’d stolen from other Saints and reached the peak of the Absolute Saint Realm instantly .

His abilities improved greatly from the beginning level to the peak . The Rules of Saintly Way in his Sea of Qi had all gone to the extreme .

He was feeling great . “After reaching the peak,” he murmured to himself, “I can’t continue condensing the 372 Rules of Saintly Way inside . I can only improve by comprehending new rules . ”

Each of the 372 rules were different . It included rules of sword, space, time, speed, palm… They represented that Zhang Ruochen had melded 372 Rules of Saintly Way into his saint soul .

These 372 rules were Zhang Ruochen’s foundation for the Saintly Way, known as the “rule seeds . ”

He could only reach the half-step Saint King Realm by letting the rule seeds take root .

“I choose the time, space, and sword rules as the root . I’ll focus on these three ways . The other 369 will be the branches and leaves . ” Zhang Ruochen made this decision .

Usually, a cultivator would only choose one Rule of Saintly Way as the root .

Zhang Ruochen chose three simultaneously . It was undeniably a big challenge .

He had no other option though . First, time and space were both part of the Ancient Ways . He had to focus on them .

However, time and space were too difficult . If Zhang Ruochen chose them as the root, he would have to take forever to reach the half-step Saint King Realm .

Thus, he had to choose the Sword Way as support to help him improve quickly .

“The rules of time and space are too difficult to comprehend . It takes a lot of time too . I’ll study the Sword Way first and try to reach the half-step or even first step Saint King Realm first . ”

“In the Heaven World, I can only become one of the strong by becoming a Saint King . ”

The Sword Way was one of the 72 Supreme Saintly Ways . It was intangible but still truly existed in the world .

It would be very slow for a cultivator to merely use his Spiritual Power to perceive it .

The fastest way to comprehend the Sword Way was definitely to refine and absorb rules saint weapons of a swordsman . Then, they could transform those rules into their own .

But rules saint weapons were very hard to find . If he wanted to find a swordsman’s rules saint weapon, it would only be harder .

Suddenly, his heart jumped . He thought of that rules emperor weapon from Zuling Field .

The Wujin Ancestor had left that rules emperor weapon behind . It represented the crystallization of the cultivation of his entire life . It was probably made up of billions of rules and was a definite treasure .

Zhang Ruochen, Le, Han Qiu and the others had gone through much difficulty to take this weapon from Hell Blade Field and Purple Mansion Field .
