Blinding saintly light shined from Marquis Chengxuan’s navel. Then a mouth with sharp teeth appeared.

“My Sea of Qi is in my heart. I won’t die even without a head.”

Just then, he took out a battle map and laid it open before him. He pressed a hand onto it and forced out a beam of evil Qi.

Roar!

The map was activated instantly. A beast covered in chains charged out. The beast was more than 30 feet long and had menacing features. Its aura was comparable to a first-step Saint King.

“Attack and help the Young Lord kill Zhang Ruochen.”

Marquis Chengxuan landed on the beast’s head. He grabbed the Zhentian Spear, a Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon, and activated its full power. A dark red circle of Holy Qi poured out of him.

On the other end, Marquis Qianjue and Marquis Wukun both activated their True Shadows. They charged at Zhang Ruochen from opposite directions.

One could only form the True Shadow after reaching the Absolute Saint Realm.

The True Shadow consisted of the most extreme Rules of Saintly Way. It harmonized with the world and could manipulate a part of the world’s power. In other words, an Absolute Saint’s combat power would increase greatly after activating the True Shadow.

This was one reason why a True Saint could never fight against an Absolute Saint.

Zhang Ruochen struck with his Abyss Ancient Sword, blocking Marquis Chengxuan and his beast from afar. At the same time, a fist print appeared on his arms. He performed the Luo Water Fist Technique.

“Blue Water and Clouds.”

The thousand-year Pluto Ice in the sea was affected by the fist technique and rose up loudly. It transformed into two dozen-mile-long rivers and spun around Zhang Ruochen.

The Luo Water Fist Technique was most suitable to be performed near water. Borrowing from the natural advantage could unleash the most power.

Zhang Ruochen had once stayed by the Luo Waterside for an entire year. In addition to drinking wine, he’d also studied the Luo Water Fist Technique. Now, he’d cultivated the technique to the ninth level.

Zhang Ruochen punched with both fists. The fist prints flew out with the two rivers, crashing against the power from Marquis Qianjue and Wukun.

Boom.

Boom.

The two first marquises were sent flying. Countless defensive runes on them cracked open.

The Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow had landed on them. Instantly, their bodies froze and turned numb. Their flesh stiffened and even the circulation of the Sha Qi inside of them slowed.

“Now is the best chance to kill them.”

Zhang Ruochen unleashed two long spatial cracks at Marquis Qianjue and Wukun.

“How dare you!”

Marquis Chengxuan roared and two thick chains flew from under the evil beast. They wrapped around the two first marquises and pulled them onto the beast’s back, saving their lives.

The two spatial cracks swallowed a great amount of the Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow before closing slowly. The space recovered once again.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed. He started practicing the fist technique on the water again. “Twenty-seventh move of the Luo Water Fist Technique, Green Sea Waves.”

Affected by the fist technique, waves crashed on the sea surface. A wave more than 100 feet high rose up like a mountain and crashed down at the evil beast.

Even with Marquis Chengxuan, Qianjue and Wukun’s cultivations, they still felt a little unsteady, like the sky was about to fall down.

“Zhang Ruochen is indeed a powerful guy. His combat power is too strong.” Marquis Qianjue was stunned.

Just then, Marquise Xianling held a saintly cane and flew into the sky. With her strong Spiritual Power, she actually manipulated the Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow too.

Boom!

Two waves crashed together, unleashing a huge boom. Then they both collapsed at the same time.

The three first marquises on the beast’s back all let out relieved sighs.

Before them, only white vapor remained. It looked like fog covered the entire surface. They couldn’t see where Zhang Ruochen was hiding.

Marquis Chengxuan huffed coldly. “Zhang Ruochen, you aren’t a match for us four first marquises. If I were you, I would escape immediately—”

Kaboom!

Before he could finish, a huge fist print flew out of the vapor. The Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow within a dozen miles was shaking.

This fist print was even stronger than the last.

Marquis Chengxuan was very experienced, so he didn’t get intimidated. He activated more evil Sha Qi into the battle map.

Sizzle.

Huge flames actually spread from the scroll. A blazing sun flew out and crashed against the fist print.

The cold and hot forces collided, dissipating at the same time.

However, before they could react, Zhang Ruochen had already used the Spatial Move and appeared on the beast’s back. Divine Fire Jingmie poured out of the 14 apertures on his hands. It transformed into a cloud of fire that enveloped the three first marquises.

Marquis Qianjue and Wukun reacted a bit slowly. Some strands of Divine Fire Jingmie landed on them and they instantly started burning.

“Oh, no. It’s Divine Fire Jingmie...”

“Ah... That damn Zhang Ruochen...”

They couldn’t extinguish Divine Fire Jingmie at all. It was about to burn them to ashes.

Even a first marquis would be unable to keep calm at this point. They were extremely terrified.

Marquis Wukun jumped off from the beast and landed in the icy water with a plop. He wanted to use the Thousand-year Nether Winter Snow to extinguish the Divine Fire Jingmie.

Marquis Qianjue was slightly more reasonable. He knew that jumping into the nether water also meant death, so he decided to risk it all and charged toward Zhang Ruochen. His eyes were fierce. “If I die, then everyone dies!”

He cast a secret spell and his aura shot up. He activated the last of his power, unleashing his strongest attack.

“It’s so boring to die with you.”

Zhang Ruochen shook his head. He pushed out with both hands, activating spatial power and casting the Spatial Twist. Marquis Qianjue had been charging at him, but after the spatial structure changed, Marquis Qianjue went for Marquise Xianling who was hovering in the air.

“Zhang Ruochen, you bastard.”

Marquise Xianling’s beautiful face became extremely twisted.

She knew that Marquis Qianjue’s final attack would definitely be terrifying. Even a first step Saint King could get killed.

She hurriedly activated her Spiritual Power and unleashed a defensive attack. At the same time, she activated all her defensive runes. ????????????????????????????. c????????

Layers of Holy Qi shields poured out of her.

Kaboom.

Marquis Qianjue’s final burst of strength shattered the many shields, mangling her body. She fell from the sky.

Just as she was about to fall into the water, wings sprouted from Marquise Xianling’s back. She flew up with difficulty and escaped, landing on the shell of the Xuanwu.

She spat out a mouthful of blood and sat down weakly.

When Zhang Ruochen had attacked with the Divine Fire Jingmie earlier, Marquis Chengxuan had reacted the most quickly. He immediately activated a defensive rune and escaped. He’d actually avoided the fire and saved his life.

As for Marquis Wukun, who’d jumped into the water, he’d indeed extinguished the fire on him, but his body had been frozen stiff. He couldn’t move and sank to the bottom.

One of the Holy Carnivorous Flower’s roots flew out of Zhang Ruochen’s back. It stabbed into the Thousand-year Nether Winter Water, wrapped around Marquis Qianjue, and dragged him out.

Poof.

Zhang Ruochen sent out the Abyss Ancient Sword and stabbed Marquis Wukun’s Sea of Qi. His skull shattered. This powerful first marquis still died in the end.

In the distance, Lord Lingquan had just broken though Sword Master Dongliu and Xue Lingfeng’s ship. He stood on the deck and sent the two flying. But before he could even rejoice, he saw this bloody scene.

How long had it been?

Of the four first marquises, two were dead and two were heavily injured.

Lord Lingquan bared his white teeth and sneered. “Marquis Xiebai, Qianyu, Kuya, Xueyu, Qizhen, you all take care of these two. I will go kill Zhang Ruochen personally.”

The defense of the ship had already been broken. Sword Master Dongliu and Xue Lingfeng were heavily injured too. They could only stand at the end of the ship, holding on with difficulty.

To Lord Lingquan, the five first marquises could definitely take out these two.

Now, he finally had the time to do battle with Zhang Ruochen.

If he could kill Zhang Ruochen, then he would have a complete victory. With this achievement, Princess Luosha would definitely be impressed. Thinking of this, Lord Lingquan couldn’t help but smile cruelly.

“Zhang Ruochen, no matter how strange your time and spatial powers are, don’t even think about escaping from me.”

Lord Lingquan struck with the purple stone. Pushed by the evil sha Qi, the stone kept spinning and became bigger and bigger. Finally, it turned into a divine purple mountain and stood atop the Nether Winter Sea.

That moment, Zhang Ruochen could feel clearly that the surrounding space was locked.

“Disabling your Spatial Way is like breaking an arm. I heard that your time sword technique is very powerful. How about you let me see?”

Lord Lingquan flew to the top of the mountain and sneered at Zhang Ruochen.

He also had the Supreme Complete Body Constitution, along with the support of the divine patterns. He also had a treasure like the purple mountain and, most importantly, his cultivation was much higher than Zhang Ruochen.

Faced with an opponent like this, Zhang Ruochen naturally felt a lot of pressure.

Of course, he wasn’t afraid. If he really had no choice, he could use the divine weapon.

“Not many can escape from the time sword technique,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Whoosh!

Demonic Sound’s beautiful figure walked out of Zhang Ruochen’s spine. She stood up tall but seemed very charming. A mesmerizing fragrance came from her snow-white skin. In an instant, the fragrance spread across the entire sea.
