Chapter 915
Riding on the back of the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit, Zhang Ruochen turned around and saw that the hillside had been completely filled with blood fog . Amidst the fog were vague images of long pointed teeth and sharp claws .
There were also faint shadows of winged human figures flying in the blood fog .
“Oh no, the Immortal Vampires are launching their attacks on the Shi Family’s troops . ” The sight darkened Zhang Ruochen’s gaze .
In the meantime, a few miles from where Zhang Ruochen was, the Shi Family’s soldiers were attempting to break through the defense lines of the Golden Sparrow City . Only a few of the forefathers of half-saint level sensed the incoming threat from behind .
However, the incoming Immortal Vampires were the cream of the crop in their clan . They could easily make it to the outer ring of the city at the speed of multiple or even ten times faster .
By the time the leaders of the Shi Family’s troops reacted and restored the battle position, many of the soldiers would have been slaughtered already .
Zhang Ruochen looked determined, then said firmly, “Stall the attack . ”
The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit widened its already big eyes, looking extremely surprised while refining the Half-Saint Light it took earlier . “Are you crazy, Master Zhang? The combined power of the Immortal Vampires is beyond our ability . This is a suicide mission — no, two suicide missions . ”
“If we help them, the death toll of the Shi Family’s soldiers will be reduced . ”
Zhang Ruochen pressed against the head of the Rabbit with one hand to flip himself over, facing the thunderhead-like blood fog . “Abyss,” he summoned .
The Abyss Ancient Sword then flew up from his back and hovered above his head, emitting a dark colored light .
As Zhang Ruochen continued to channel his Holy Qi into the sword, the light it was emitting grew darker and colder .
The dark light soon spread out, covering the entire area between the hillside and the city, as if darkness had taken over daylight .
The sword spirit of the Abyss Ancient Sword appeared – a man with a pair of black wings .
The activation of the Destruction of the Thousand-pattern released an enormous energy, and everyone shuddered .
“Zhang Ruochen is activating the Thousand-Pattern Saint Weapon . Attack him before he makes it!” The Second Prince of the Immortal Vampires commanded in his cold voice .
Following that, fifteen Immortal Vampires of half-saint level each activated a saint weapon; there were huge swords of several meters long, blood red wheels, and dragon whips used to tame the dragons .
The fifteen saint weapons glowed in the dark, then soared through the sky like shooting stars, aiming at Zhang Ruochen .
“Green Sea Blue Sky . ” While Zhang Ruochen continued to launch the destructive pattern using the Abyss Ancient Sword, he swung the sword through the Immortal Vampires with the Nine-Life Sword Technique, and a long trail of Sword Qi was left behind the blade .
The Abyss Ancient Sword had been upgraded to be the Thousand-pattern Saint Weapon . Those saint weapons of a hundred-pattern wielded by the Immortal Vampires could never withstand the blow of a thousand-pattern .
Bam .
All fifteen weapons were blown apart, and the sky was a chaos of mixing energies falling apart .
And the blood fog was fed by influxes of the Sword Qi .
Then, screams of dying troops were heard, followed by a few hundred bodies raining down on the ground . Three of them were corpses of the half-saints .
The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit’s eyes flashed as soon as it saw the three bodies, and dashed toward the direction where they fell off .
Three dead half-saints meant three Half-Saint Lights .
“Do not go over . ”
Zhang Ruochen landed behind it .
At this point in time, he was too weak to fight the others, for he had depleted his Holy Qi .
The Elephant-swallowing Rabbit could tell from his look, and managed to harness its greed by focusing on the Shi Family’s needs .
That attack Zhang Ruochen launched created a huge commotion . Not only did it manage to stall the Immortal Vampires for a short while, but also attracted the Shi Family’s soldiers’ attention .
The Shi Family’s soldiers recognized Zhang Ruochen from afar, who was riding on the Elephant-swallowing Rabbit .
“That’s … the Taotian Sword Keeper, Zhang Ruochen . He’s the one who killed hundreds of the Immortal Vampires with a single strike . ”
“The Immortal Vampires planned an ambush? Thankfully Zhang Ruochen discovered them before the execution . Otherwise, the Shi Family would have suffered a heavy loss . ”
“I have always thought Zhang Ruochen was undercover for the Immortal Vampires . I never knew he’s the one that’s been helping the Ancient Race of Prison Guardians all along . I should be giving myself a tight awakening slap . ”
“If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t been here today, we could have been dead . ”
…
Shi Yuncong, the Shi Family’s forefather of the Saint level, overlooked the incoming blood fog from the battleship, and gave a roar of rage .
The intimidating roar created ripples of sound waves that soon engulfed the blood fog .
The sound wave of a saint’s roar was powerful enough to annihilate the entire Immortal Vampires’ base camp .
Amid the chaos, a huge winged figure was seen .
He was ten times larger than a typical Immortal Vampire, and had silver wings, which were at least 30 feet long when fully extended .
He burst into laughter, then gave his expansive wings a flap, creating a huge whirl of blood wind blowing against the battleship .
The sound wave and the blood wind exploded with a roar as the two distinct forces collided .
The two forces neutralized each other, but the surplus from the impact sent a blast which threw off soldiers from both sides .
Shi Yuncong stared at the huge winged figure in surprise . “Wang Jinsuo?”
“Haha! I killed Wang Jinsuo a hundred years ago and sucked his blood dry . I am the Blood Emperor Qingtian – King Xianlan of the Immortal Vampires . ”
King Xianlan let out an evil laugh .
Once again, he flapped his expansive wings once, and he was already above the battleship Shi Yuncong was at . Then, he struck a palm at the battleship .
There were two battleships that were hovering above the Golden Sparrow City . One was commanded by Shi Yuncong, and the other was commanded by a man in his mid-30s .
The middle-aged man seemed weak, as if he was ill . Yet he seemed to be a wise gentleman .
If Zhang Ruochen was on the battleship, he would have recognized the man was Shi Ren’s father, Shi Qiankun .
The moment when King Xianlan struck his palm, Shi Qiankun had alertly cast a rune scroll, shooting it from his hands to the sky .
“The coexistence of Yin and Yang, and the complementary Five Elements . ”
Shi Qiankun was murmuring the rune spell .
Meanwhile, there was a strong boost of Spiritual Power coming from his body . The whole battleship went into a state of chaos .
As soon as the rune scroll touched the palm mark, the two energies detonated .
The power of the rune scroll outweighed the palm’s . Even King Xianlan who had achieved the saint level was affected by the impact .
His right hand was a mangled mash of flesh oozing with blood, exposing his jade-like saint bones .
“The First Town Destructive Sacred Rune!”
King Xianlan shifted his gaze to Shi Qiankun and shrieked, “Shi Qiankun, you have the courage to be here today? I know very well that you have been poisoned with Blood Poison of Pluto and the Evil Death Qi . Have you recovered from those two? They are not easy to recover from!”
Shi Qiankun remained sitting, and replied, “You seem to be well aware of the two poisons . Could it be you who poisoned me?”
Shi Qiankun had been practicing both Spiritual Power and martial arts .
Hence, he could use his Spiritual Power to cast rune spells while inhibiting the toxicity in the Blood Poison of Pluto with his Holy Qi .
As a member of the Shi Family, his cultivation as a rune spell practitioner was higher than that of a swordsman .
If he was not poisoned, he would have been the Clan Leader .
King Xianlan laughed in reply, “That’s right . I was the one who poisoned you, but under the command of Wang Beilie . He was afraid that you could be a threat to him when you achieved the saint level . Now, are you happy with my explanation?”
“Of course I am . ”
Shi Qiankun took out yet another rune scroll .
He sliced his left finger on the piece of rune scroll for a small cut wound .
And then he scribbled on the rune scroll with his saint blood .
The scribbles on the rune scroll glowed, with an ever increasing brightness .
As soon as King Xianlan realized the rune scroll Shi Qiankun was holding, his facial expression changed . Immediately, he flapped his expansive wings frantically to escape .
King Xianlan had been undercover in the Ancient Race of the Prison Guardians for a century . He knew the destruction the rune scroll could cause . It was the Shi Family’s Nine Town Destruction Sacred Rune .
He was already wounded by the First Town Destructive Sacred Rune .
Using the saint blood to cast a rune spell could amplify its power to becoming the Third Town Destructive Sacred Run, where its destructive power was ten times stronger than the first .
Shi Qiankun glanced in the direction King Xianlan escaped to . Squinting his eyes, he said, “He’s fast at running away . ”
“I will chase after him . ”
Shi Yuncong flew off from the surface of his battleship, picked up his Xuan Dragon Sword and off he went .
Since Shi Yuncong had offered, there was no need for Shi Qiankun to cast out the Third Town Destructive Sacred Rune . Instead, he dropped the rune off at the Golden Sparrow City .
A flimsy piece of paper, yet the force it exuded was greater than the Destruction of the Thousand-pattern .
The power blasted the city’s defense formation off completely .
Many of the Immortal Vampires residing in the city were killed from the blast as well, and vanished into bundles of blood fog .
“Kill all and leave none behind . ”
“Kill all the Immortal Vampires in the city! Avenge those who left us!”
…
Under the leadership of Shi Ren, the Shi Family’s troops were divided into a ratio of 7:3 . The majority invaded the Golden Sparrow City, while the minority continued to fight against the Immortal Vampires from the outer ring of the city .
The war had finally begun .
