God Emperor

Chapter 1910: Killing a Shenzi

“Suppress and kill!”

Xuetu Shenzi growled as he waved his sleeves and blasted out the full-charged Infernal Purgatory Tower.

The tower unleashed raging flames, like a falling star, carrying with it an unparalleled power of devastation, as if it was about to totally destroy the Sword Vault.

No matter how much external force Zhang Ruochen could borrow, he would be obliterated without mercy.

It would be Zhang Ruochen’s honor to die from his strongest attack.

“Go.”

Zhang Ruochen was fearless, and his momentum quickly peaked as he blasted the Yin-Yang Taiji Seal out.

Although he was alone now, the tacit understanding between the Ancient Abyssal Blade and the Blood Dripper was enough to perform the true technique of the Yin-Yang Liangyi Sword Formation.

Baaaam!!!

The Yin-Yang Taiji Seal crashed against the Infernal Purgatory Tower. As the very different powers collided against each other, they slowly ground against each other, unleashing an extremely terrifying shock wave in their wake.

The Infernal Purgatory Tower stopped mid-air. Although it continued to unleash its raging powers, it could no longer descend any further.

The Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram formed by the Ancient Abyssal Blade and the Blood Dripper was extremely stable. It might have seemed small, but it had the might to resist the Infernal Purgatory Tower’s impact.

“You cannot stop me! Break!”

A sharp light flashed in Xuetu Shenzi’s eyes as his true body appeared atop the Infernal Purgatory Tower, and he crashed downward with all of his might.

The aura around Zhang Ruochen’s body continued to rise as it continuously infused power into the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram.

In addition, the diagram was also drawing power from the Sword Vault on its own as if both the Ancient Abyssal Blade and the Blood Dripper had a strange connection with the Sword Vault.

An invisible wave approached, causing Zhang Ruochen to suddenly come to a kind of understanding. His Sword Will underwent a bizarre change too.

Finally, he had managed to fully comprehend the final technique of Sword Nine, Soul Oblivion, thus reaching the perfected state of Sword Nine.

Instantly, with his evolved Sword Will, he activated the Yin-Yang Liangyi Sword Formation.

The Yin-Yang Liangyi Sword Formation of the Liangyi Sect was born from the Wordless Sword Tome of the Hall of Swords. Therefore, using the Sword Will obtained from comprehending the Wordless Sword Tome to activate the Yin-Yang Liangyi Sword Formation was almost complementary.

The Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram burst out with brilliant divine light as a sword force rushed into the sky, cutting through the purgatory barrier.

Immediately after, the Infernal Purgatory Tower was struck by one of the sword forces as countless blades of Purgatory Flames flew out and fell like a rain of fire.

The next moment, the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram once again unleashed a surge of Sword Force, cutting through the space while striking Xia Wenxin, the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord, and the rest.

Compared with the Sword Force that struck the Infernal Purgatory Tower, the ones blasted out now was undoubtedly much weaker in power, but they were absolutely not to be underestimated. Each one of them had enough power to strike down a star.

Xia Wenxin reacted extremely quickly, and immediately deployed the Godslayer Cross Shield.

Boom!!

The Godslayer Cross Shield unleashed a series of blood light as they collided with the sword force and mutually annihilated each other.

“Xuetu Shenzi has depleted his energy to rouse the Infernal Purgatory Tower, and it’s more than enough to kill a Neverwither Supreme Saint. Yet, it could not do anything to Zhang Ruochen, and he’s now in the backfoot. How is this possible?” Seeing the Infernal Purgatory Tower fly up into the air, the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord was in disbelief.

Although he did not like Xuetu, he recognized the latter’s strength and knew how terrifying Xuetu’s blow was earlier.

Under normal circumstances, that hit would be enough to kill Zhang Ruochen, and even those ghosts that aided Zhang Ruochen would have been annihilated as well.

But why did things turn out like this?

“As expected of Empress Chi Yao’s sword, it is even more powerful than the Infernal Purgatory Tower.” Xia Wenxin could not help but speak in admiration.

There were strong and weak Supreme Sacred Artifacts, and the gap was large more often than not.

Just like the Empress of Thousand Bones’ Void Blade, it was a top-tier Supreme Sacred Artifact, and some even speculate that it was not much different from a Divine Artifact.

And while the Blood Dripper’s time as a Supreme Sacred Artifact was not long, it was still made out of the Iron of Creation, coupled with Empress Chi Yao’s power, it was much stronger than many Supreme Sacred Artifacts from the beginning, and may even have the chance to become a true Divine Artifact.

“The situation seems a little bad, what should we do next?” Wangqiu Shenzi, whose body was like an iron hat, said with a frown.

While he had no problems fighting, the strategy was still up to Xia Wenxin.

A few gleams of light flashed in Xia Wenxin’s eyes as he demurred. “Assemble the army and launch a full-on assault. Deploy all of the Saintkiller Warships.”

Hearing that, the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord’s eyes suddenly brightened. “We should have used the Saintkiller Warships from the start. It could have saved us the effort.”

“When the situation is not completely clear, it is naturally better to keep some trump cards hidden. Now that even the Blood Dripper has appeared, the Zhenyu Clan probably have no other hands to play.” Xia Wenxin calmly analyzed.

As he said that, he flung his sleeves, and three exquisite warships only a few feet long appeared.

The Nine-eye Heavenly Lord grabbed one of them and quickly poured his own power into it.

Suddenly, the miniature warships quickly became large and transformed into colossal objects that were hundreds of meters in length.

Ten thousand Immortal Vampire warriors immediately flew onto the warship, while the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord himself entered the warship.

Immediately after, Xia Wenxin and Wangqiu Shenzi each took charge of a warship as well, forming a three-pronged formation alongside the warship that was commandeered by the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord. At the same time, they flew toward Zhang Ruochen.

Xia Wenxin knew that using a normal warship against the Sword Vault was pointless, so he had brought three extremely powerful Saintkiller Warships over.

As the name suggested, the Saintkiller Warships existed specifically for destroying Saints, if it was controlled by a top-level elite, it was enough to kill a Supreme Saint.

Refining a Saintkiller Warship was not easy, and each ship was worth cities. Not only did it have extremely powerful offensive capabilities, but its defensive power was also very strong, making it difficult to be damaged.

Had it not been for the assault on the Sword Vault, Xia Wenxin would not have been able to take out three Saintkiller Warships from the clan.

On the other side, the Immortal Vampire army quickly formed up formation arrays, and each battle formation was made out of thousands of people and was extremely large.

Individual-strength-wise, these Immortal Vampires were indeed not very strong, but once in a battle formation with their collective strengths combined, they were not to be underestimated.

There was a saying that ants in a swarm could bite an elephant to death; a battle formation formed by tens of thousands of Saint-level Immortal Vampire warriors was enough to kill a Saint King.

“Xuetu, you lead the charge. We will support you from the side.” Xia Wenxin secretly sent a telepathic message to Xuetu Shenzi.

At that moment, Xuetu Shenzi’s face was extremely gloomy. The battle earlier had caused a sense of frustration to grow in his heart, and that made him extremely furious.

“Die!”

Xuetu roared as he once again infused a lot of his essence into the Infernal Purgatory Tower.

The dimmed inscriptions resurfaced once again, as a scorching heat radiated as a purgatory world faintly emerged from it.

Boom!!

The Infernal Purgatory Tower crashed down, carrying it with it the momentum beyond any resistance.

At the same time, a large number of inscriptions appeared on the three Saintkiller Warships as each shot out lightning, flames, and violent gales.

With three Shenzi and thirty thousand Immortal Vampire saint-level cultivators powering the warships at the same time, the power unleashed was almost unstoppable.

Forget Saint Kings, even Supreme Saints needed to avoid the blow.

The Saintkiller Warships were usually used in space combat, and any strike could shoot down a star, and shatter the void.

At this moment, three forces erupted at the same time, matching the attacks launched by the Infernal Purgatory Tower.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were grim as he did his best to spur the Yin-Yang Liangyi Sword Formation. The Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram grew bigger as he stood in the middle, allowing him to attack or defend.

This Sword Formation focused mostly on balance. Whether it was in terms of offense or defense, it was very strong. As long as two people were of one mind, it would be almost invincible.

Booom!!

The power of the Infernal Purgatory Tower and the three Saintkiller Warships bombarded the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram entirely.

To the disappointment of Xia Wenxin and the rest, the diagram did not collapse and was still running slowly.

All of the power that slammed against the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram was for naught as they disappeared away.

“My turn,” Zhang Ruochen whispered as he unleashed a powerful Sword Will.

Hummmmm

The Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram shuddered, as it shot out a barrage of extremely condensed Sword Force.

For him to be able to condense them to such a degree was thanks to the attacks by Xia Wenxin and the rest, it was those attacks that made the Sword Force even stronger.

Baaaam!!!

The Infernal Purgatory Tower was sent flying again, and even if it had unleashed a greater force, it was pointless.

Creaaaak...

The three Saintkiller Warships were all sent flying upside down as the inscriptions on their surface darkened, and was clearly damaged.

Whoosh!

A Sword Soul flew out of Zhang Ruochen’s body and used the Dreadblade as it pierced through the head of Wangqiu Shenzi like a thunderbolt.

“Imposs...”

Wangqiu Shenzi’s eyes were wide open as he fell straight down. ????????n????e????????. ????oｍ

Zhang Ruochen’s Sword Soul did not retreat but completely spurred the Dreadblade and unleashed the Sword Nine at full power.

Baaaam!!

Many of the Immortal Vampire warriors on the Saintkiller Warships could not even react before their bodies simply exploded, dying a gruesome death.

The next moment, the Sword Soul returned as if it had never left before.

While there were some surviving Immortal Vampire warriors on the warship, it was basically paralyzed and no longer a threat.

For Zhang Ruochen to be able to incapacitate a Saintkiller Warship so quickly was beyond anyone’s imagination.

In particular, the slaying of Wangqiu Shenzi was even more shocking and inexplicable.

Hiss...

The Nine-eye Heavenly Lord gasped, as a trace of fear grew involuntarily in his heart.

His strength was not that much stronger than Wangqiu Shenzi’s, and since Zhang Ruochen could kill the latter, it meant that it was equally possible for Zhang Ruochen to kill him.

“Retreat.”

Without any hesitation, the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord chose to retreat.

No matter what, he had to first create a distance between him and Zhang Ruochen. He did not want to be the next Wangqiu Shenzi.

“Where do you think you’re going?” Zhang Ruochen asked coldly as he blasted out the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram straight at the Saintkiller Warship that the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord was commandeering.

The Nine-eye Heavenly Lord was afraid and had chosen to flee, literally leaving himself open. How could Zhang Ruochen let such an opportunity slip?

At that moment, a dreadful blood Qi erupted, forming a massive shield blocking before the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord’s warship.

The giant shield was formed by a battle formation, gathering the power of tens of thousands of Immortal Vampire warriors, its defensive power was not to be underestimated.

Just as the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a numbness in his scalp and a terrifying threat looming over him.

Boom!!

The giant shield burst apart like it was a fragile object.

The Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram did not lose momentum and crashed straight into the Saintkiller Warship that the Nine-eye Heavenly Lord was commandeering as a destructive force erupted.
