Chapter 2537: Became a Buddha
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Five days into the city, Zhang Ruochen had offended all the major forces in the Royal City of Hundred Clans. It was really not what he wanted.
Zhang Ruochen encompassed everything in his heart. It seemed that he had comprehended everything in an instant. In fact, Zhang Ruochen had opened the sundial in the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. He had comprehended it for five years before he had a clear mind and realized the spiritual transformation.
In other words, Zhang Ruochen had been in a mysterious state of enlightenment for the past five days. He had no idea what was happening outside.
!!
The palace guardian, Huang Tian, and the 18 Ghost Lords had no opinions. They only followed Zhang Ruochen’s instructions when he entered the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. “We shall enter the city in a high-profile manner.”
God knew why Zhang Ruochen had been mute after entering the city.
When Zhang Ruochen’s epiphany ended, he made some predictions and realized that so much time had passed. So, he quickly asked Huang Tian about the recent events.
Huang Tian was just a sleeping lion dog. As long as there were no enemies to attack, it didn’t even bother to open its eyes.
Being asked by Zhang Ruochen, it replied arrogantly, “The Sevenstar Imperial Palace is the Palace of Wargod Bloodximius. No enemies would dare to attack.”
Well, it was useless to ask.
Zhang Ruochen had mixed feelings. He decided that the next time he cultivated, he must bring out one or two reliable cultivators from the Qiankun Realm to be the manager of his external affairs.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a heavy blow landed on the top of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace.
The palace, which looked more than 30 meters tall, shook violently. Then, countless inscriptions of the array appeared and automatically formed a square-shaped defensive array.
Huang Tian could not understand why there would be someone who did not know what was good for him. He was angry and angry at the same time.
With a leap, he stood before the palace door and roared towards the sky.
The Sevenstar Imperial Palace’s stairs, walls, tiles, and pillars all shone with divine light. Large amounts of Supreme Saint inscriptions and Divine Marks appeared, forming a second and third defensive array.
At the same time, an attack array was formed. Blood-colored lightning flowed around the palace like a stream.
Wargod Bloodximius had given the Sevenstar Imperial Palace to Zhang Ruochen to keep him safe. The higher Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation was, the stronger his control over the Sevenstar Imperial Palace would be. The defense and attack power would also increase.
The sudden change shocked the cultivators surrounding the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. They all retreated.
How could anyone dare to attack Zhang Ruochen?
Four human-like figures in white rushed toward the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. They were all flesh and blood creatures, but they exude an aura of death.
The stone slabs on the long street and the buildings on both sides were instantly covered in a layer of black ice.
The cultivators surrounding the Sevenstar Imperial Palace knew that these four powerful figures in white were compelling, but they didn’t retreat.
The reason was that this was the Royal City of Hundred Clans, a great sacred city. It even had the tendency to transform into a divine city.
The so-called sacred city was where the Saint Realm cultivators gathered.
To become a sacred city, the best cultivation conditions were only one of them. More importantly, one had to ensure that the Battle of the Saint Realm cultivators couldn’t cause any ripples of damage and couldn’t destroy the city.
As for the divine city, it had to be a city that could not be destroyed by a battle between gods.
There was only one sacred city for each of the ten great clans, and they were all built around the fane.
Since the Royal City of Hundred Clans could be considered a sacred city close to being a divine city, the materials used to build the city must be at the saint level. Every building had at least Supreme Saint inscriptions engraved on them.
There were countless Path Locks and Divine Marks in the city.
The moment the four white-robed powerhouses released their saint might, the Supreme Saint inscriptions, Path Locks, and Divine Marks appeared on the nearby streets and ancient buildings. Even a light pillar of array formation shot up into the sky.
Rumble
After the four white-robed powerhouses appeared, they didn’t say a word and directly attacked the Sevenstar Imperial Palace.
The four of them were all wielding swords. They were artifacts that surpassed Class Three Regal Artifacts.
One strike after another. Although they did not break through the defense of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace, cracks appeared on the green stone street that had been immortal for tens of thousands of years. Many of the Path Locks between heaven and earth were cut off.
Xuan Zehai looked at them from the railing. His expression was grim as he said, “Which faction is this? They actually mobilized four Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saints at once.”
To mobilize four Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saints, a Macroworld like Guanghan needed to mobilize the entire world’s power. Naturally, it was a big move.
“These Supreme Saints are all living beings but full of killing intent. Could they be from the Asuras’ Fane of Barasingha?” Xuan Qingying asked.
Yan Huangtu stared at the booming street for a moment. He seemed to have seen something. He just grinned and looked around.
Yan Zhexian frowned slightly. “The allied enforcers of the Royal City of Hundred Clans don’t care about the fight between the Supreme Saints in the city?”
She wasn’t worried about Zhang Ruochen’s safety. She was just curious.
A battle between the Supreme Saint level powerhouses in the saint city would definitely cause damage.
Xuan Zehai smiled bitterly, “The Royal City of Hundred Clans isn’t like those saint cities in the center of the Infernal Court. The rules and order here are very loose. All 137 clans have built a sacred ground in the city. Their core interests and wealth are all on sacred ground. Although we will take care of the chaos outside the sacred grounds, we still must divide the people, time, and power.”
Yan Zhexian finally understood. The Royal City of Hundred Clans’ allied enforcers would undoubtedly punish the Supreme Saint fighting in the city.
However, the four white-clothed powerful figures dared to attack Zhang Ruochen. They clearly had a strong background. The Royal City of Hundred Clans didn’t want to get involved. Neither side wanted to offend Zhang Ruochen.
More importantly, Zhang Ruochen was too arrogant after entering the city. All the Royal City of Hundred Clans clans would be happy to see someone teach him a lesson.
“I’m quite curious. How will this Yuanhui-level genius deal with them?” Xuan Qingying’s eyes were filled with anticipation.
Although Xuan Qingying had cultivated for thousands of years and even met gods, Yuanhui-level geniuses were rarer than gods. Naturally, she was a little curious. However, her anticipation was significantly reduced when she thought about Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation, which was only in the Hundred-Shackle Realm.
The Sevenstar Imperial Palace’s defense was solid. If Zhang Ruochen hid inside and didn’t come out, the four Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saints might not be able to break in.
However, Zhang Ruochen had arrogantly entered the city and treated the cultivators of the clans as nothing. If he acted like a coward, wouldn’t he be laughed at by all the cultivators in the city? Wargod Bloodximius and Fukurokuju would probably be humiliated because of him.
Zhang Ruochen’s only choice was to strike back forcefully.
However, these were four Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saints. Their auras were very similar. They obviously had combined attacks. With such a formation, even Lan Ying, known for defeating Banshi Isshou Realm cultivators with a single sword, would probably choose to break out of the encirclement and not fight.
One-on-one and one-on-four were different.
More and more cultivators came after hearing the news.
Except for a big lion dog howling in front of the gate of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace, Zhang Ruochen had not come out. Cultivators from some forces were already sneering softly.
Especially those cultivators from various clans who had been humiliated by Zhang Ruochen in the past few days. They had been holding back their anger and shouted directly, “The dog raised by the Wargod Bloodximius is imposing!”
“Supreme Saint Ruochen, come out and accept the challenge. Let us see the splendor of a Yuanhui-level genius.”
“Supreme Saint Ruochen, don’t be afraid. This is the Royal City of Hundred Clans. We, Yakshas, will protect your life.”
…
They were all telling the truth, but even Yan Zhexian felt it was ear-piercing when she heard them. She hated Zhang Ruochen for not having the courage to show off on the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting.
If Yan Zhexian had known earlier, she would have announced the secret of the Madre Bloody Shadow to the world. She would not have carried the reputation of Zhang Ruochen’s child.
During that period, Zhang Ruochen took Lian Xi out of the Qiankun Realm. He burned the incense, bathed in the harem, and then changed into a spotless white robe. He only walked out of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace at a moderate pace.
After comprehending the Path, Zhang Ruochen’s state of mind became unprecedentedly calm and natural. No matter how strong the enemy was, the laughter would not stop. He did not panic at all. It was difficult for him to even be angry.
In a word, he was like a Buddha!
He summoned Lian Xi not to show off to the Royal City of Hundred Clans cultivators but to prepare to let her go.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t know if it was because he was too compassionate, but when he thought about Lian Xi, he felt he was wrong. He was terrible not to deal with her, but not in that way.
Since she wanted to leave, he would send her on her way.
Seeing the extraordinarily handsome Zhang Ruochen and the immortal-like Fairy Shadowless walking out of the palace gate one after another, countless pairs of eyes were attracted to them.
They did not want to attract hatred but pushed it to another peak.
Who would not be envious of taking in a famous fairy as a maid?
The sacred light on Zhang Ruochen’s body blossomed like a divine lamp. All the cultivators’ hearts became calm and strange wherever the light shone.
The four white-robed Banshi Isshou Realm Supreme Saints stopped.
Zhang Ruochen wasn’t angry at all. Smiling, he said, “I’m here. I wonder which force I had offended. Can someone come out and tell me?”
When Que Shenzi of the Fane of Death saw Zhang Ruochen, he did not hide anymore. He walked out and said, “I thought the Supreme Saint Ruochen was not in the Sevenstar Imperial Palace, or he planned to hide there for the rest of his life!”
The four White Reapers were just testing him.
How could they break the Sevenstar Imperial Palace?
After thinking for a while, Que Shenzi thought there was no need for the Fane of Death to hide when dealing with Zhang Ruochen. He just had to reveal his identity. That was why he had come out with his actual body. At the same time, the other Supreme Saints of the Fane of Death also appeared nearby. They seemed to be echoing each other.
Zhang Ruochen smiled politely. “So you’re the Supreme Saint of the Fane of Death. What are you doing? Honestly, I have a good relationship with your brother Yuan Qianmo. Can you give him some face and leave? I’m a generous person. I will overlook what happened today.”
Hearing this, the Supreme Saints of the Fane of Death turned pale and pale. Yuan Benji almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
‘Did he just say he has a good relationship with Yuan Qianmo? And he called him Brother Yuan? Did he call himself a generous person?
‘Zhang Ruochen, you are courting death for saying such shameless things.’
