Chapter 875 - Killing Token

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Even a Seventh Level Half-Saint would exert himself to burst out the Thousand Lines of Destruction for one time.

Therefore, Zhang Ruochen had spent 80 percent of his Holy Qi to display the last strike, even though the Holy Qi reserved in his lower abdomen and Xuan Embryo was enormous.

Jian Kongzi was correct that Zhang Ruochen would find it hard to maintain his battle power at the minute, not to mention to display a second strike of the Thousand Lines of Destruction.

But Zhang Ruochen didn’t change much except that his face turned a little pale. He said calmly, “I’ve said this before; whoever dares to stop me will be killed by me.” He slowly raised his hands and put them at his chest.

Bump!

A breaking noise sounded inside his heart.

The dragon marble, which floated in his heart, cracked dozens of lines and broke into pieces. Rays of blinding golden brilliance gushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s body and penetrated the night.

Zhang Ruochen smashed the dragon marble with his own strength, and let Qi of Saint Dragon out of the dragon marble fiercely. All of a sudden, Qi of Saint Dragon filled all of his lower abdomen, Xuan Embryo and veins.

Most Qi of Saint Dragon had been taken by the gold dragon and was put into the sarira. And after Zhang Ruochen’s constant absorption, only a little Qi of Saint Dragon had been left inside.

Even if Zhang Ruochen didn’t crack it, it would soon explode by itself as a result of the exhaustion of the dragon Qi.

But surely, the smallest amount of Qi of Saint Dragon still contained tremendous power, which should be enough for Zhang Ruochen to display the Thousand Lines of Destruction three times.

Besides Qi of Saint Dragon, dragon marble also contained much knowledge and understanding of the gold dragon.

That was the reason why, after pieces of dragon marble had entered Zhang Ruochen’s veins, they were soon refined by Divine Fire Jingmie and transferred into a strand of mysterious power that entered his Saint Soul by the Soul Meridian.

Every Rule of Saintly Way grew and multiplied madly, including Sky Flying Rule, Flying Light Rule, Death Rule, and Sun and Moon Rule.

After each breath, a new rule of Saintly Way would be generated, including some Supreme Saintly Ways.

“Ahhhh!”

Golden dragon Qi gushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s body and took the form of thousands of dragon shadows to wrap up the space between heaven and the earth. And they kept roaring loudly.

Zhang Ruochen looked nothing like a man running out of Holy Qi by then. He was like a vigorous divine dragon and astonished all the Half-Saints onsite.

At the same time, they all retreated far away.

It’s no joke. If Zhang Ruochen activated the Taotian Sword and displayed the Thousand Lines of Destruction again, nobody could run away.

“I’ve heard that Zhang Ruochen has found the tomb of the golden dragon and inherited the treasure of Emperor Buddha. So the words might be true?” A sound was heard through the night sky. “Look, the martial soul of Zhang Ruochen...”

They all looked at Zhang Ruochen’s martial soul, and saw it hanging there and expanding with golden lights.

More than 150 Rules of Saintly Way had been condensed inside his saint soul, and the number still went up with unimaginable speed.

12 Rules of Saintly Way could help a Fish-Dragon Realm monk to reach the state of a Half-Saint.

And 30 Rules of Saintly Way would certainly make a figure extraordinary in the Fish-Dragon Realm.

So, naturally, the appearance of 150 Rules of Saintly Way in Zhang Ruochen’s saint soul had shocked everyone.

An old man in a black robe said, “maybe Zhang Ruochen wants to reach the state of Half-Saint?”

“No wonder Divine Fire Jingmie didn’t die out. Zhang Ruochen was trying to reach the state of Half-Saint. Once he made it, we couldn’t imagine how powerful he would become.”

All powerful figures from the Ministry of War showed up.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Other than Jian Kongzi, Zhuang Xuankong and Feng Qin, a man with a gold knife on his back and a woman at the age of around 40 showed up as well.

The two were covered by twelve layers of golden armor.

The man with a gold knife on his back was called Zuo Linghuan, King Gold Knife.

The woman at the age of around 40 was called Qiu Shuang, Queen Yin Eagle.

Five out of the top ten powerful figures had shown up.

The power of Destruction of the Thousand-patterns was truly terrible, but they were no ordinary people either as they had gone through great upheavals and changes. They had seen the extremes, so they weren’t frightened by them.

Feng Qin said solemnly, “Although the power of the Taotian Sword was truly irresistible, Zhang Ruochen hasn’t reached the state of Half-Saint yet. If we attack carefully, we might be able to defeat him.”

Queen Yin Eagle gave a cold look, and said, “The reason King Thousand-elephant died was that he didn’t foresee that Zhang Ruochen could display Destruction of the Thousand-patterns. Now that we know he could, we don’t have to be afraid of him.”

“Let’s fight. We have to capture Zhang Ruochen, even if we have to spend our lives.”

King Gold Knife took out his knife with one hand.

With a crash, gold light of the knife came out to be a river of Knife Qi hanging in midair, and then chopped toward Zhang Ruochen.

Meanwhile, others all played their saint weapons or Consummate Skills to attack Zhang Ruochen.

Only Zhang Ruochen could enjoy such a special treatment that five powerful figures from the Ministry of War were to attack him jointly, although he was just a Fish-Dragon Realm monk.

Zhang Ruochen operated Sword Intent to command the Taotian Sword to rise again and hover in mid air.

Boom!

With Holy Qi coming into the sword continuously from both his palms, sword spirit was awoken again. A thick strand of Qi spread to all sides.

The power of a Thousand-pattern Saint Weapon was truly incomparable. Only a strand of its Qi had pressed hard on the powerful figures from the Ministry of War.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted, “Kill them all!”

Destruction of the Thousand-patterns burst out and the Taotian Sword went down. A deafening bump was heard in midair as the Taotian Sword chopped the Yin and Yang Chessboard played by Zhuang Xuankong in two.

The sword light fell down with ruthless power and chopped King Gold Knife in two from his head.

A long sword road was left on the ground once more.

Another powerful figure had been killed. No one seemed to be able to resist the Destruction of the Thousand-patterns given out by the Taotian Sword.

Surely Zhang Ruochen paid dearly as well. When the Taotian Sword chopped King Gold Knife, he was hit by a flying sword thrown by Jian Kongzi at his chest.

The flying sword didn’t penetrate Zhang Ruochen’s body, as he had put Shooting Star Invisible Cloak on. Therefore, Zhang Ruochen was pushed to fly backwards and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Two of his ribs were broken and all his organs hurt like hell. Apparently he suffered greatly.

Luckily Zhang Ruochen had cultivated Five Elements Chaotic Body and had extraordinary defensive power. If you put another monk in his shoes, his body would be crushed by the hit of Jian Kongzi, even with the Shooting Star Invisible Cloak on.

Jian Kongzi put on a ghastly face when he saw the corpse of King Gold Knife.

The imperial government had lost three powerful figures in a row to try to capture Zhang Ruochen. Such a huge loss would surely startle the great figures of the Ministry of War.

If he couldn’t beat Zhang Ruochen, Jian Kongzi would never be accepted by the Ministry of War. And even Wan Zhaoyi wouldn’t help him.

“My chessboard.”

Zhuang Xuankong held his broken chessboard with both hands. He couldn’t help shaking his hands and feeling sad. For Zhang Ruochen, he held nothing but huge hatred.

Yin and Yang Chessboard was a powerful saint weapon, which had cost Zhuang Xuankong dearly to obtain it.

No one could have expected that it could be destroyed by a young Fish-Dragon Realm monk.

Zhang Ruochen stood up again, and wiped the blood off his lips. His eyes still looked sharp. The Spiritual Qi surrounding him gave out blades of sword Qi, making a rustling sound.

At this minute, he was like a Sword Saint who had indestructible strength.

Jian Kongzi took a deep breath and said, “Killing Token.”

Jian Kongzi, Zhuang Xuankong, Feng Qin and Queen Yin Eagle all took out a black token, then put their Holy Qi into it.

The tokens revolved rapidly over their heads and became as giant as the half sky.

Only kings from the Ministry of War could be granted a Killing Token.

Killing Token was granted to them by the Empress, herself.

Each token contained a tiny bit of the breath of the Empress. Wielding three or more tokens at the same time could activate a strike of the Empress’s power and vanquish the enemy whom they couldn’t beat.

The more tokens used, the more power would burst out.

As four Killing Tokens rose above the ground, clouds of white Qi fog gushed out from the tokens and surged between them like a river. At the center, a 1000-meter-tall shadow of the Empress appeared.
