Feng Xi’s appearance made Shang Ziyan, the Traceless Fairy, Gong Ziyan and the others grow solemn. They knew that they couldn’t go to the Truth Godly Palace with her. Otherwise, even though they had impressive backgrounds, they would probably still be punished severely.
If they escaped, Feng Xi wouldn’t have evidence and wouldn’t be able to do anything.
But when they saw how one palm print severely injured Liancheng Baili and disabled him, their hearts fell.
This terrible power must be from a top ten godly disciple.
Nie Xiangzi, one of the top ten godly disciples, appeared out of thin air beside Feng Xi. Shaking his palm, he said nonchalantly,
If you don’t want to die, follow me.

It was Nie Xiangzi, the one who could grab a planet with his hand and had an indifferent personality.
After seeing Nie Xiangzi and Feng Xi, Zhang Ruochen was relieved.
Shang Ziyan’s group were strong, but they were still too young. There was a huge distance between them and Nie Xiangzi who was infinitely close to becoming a Supreme Saint.
The Traceless Fairy, Shang Ziyan and Xun Ya all looked toward Shang Ziyan.
They were clear that Shang Ziyan was detailed and careful in everything he did. He must have a way out. As expected, Shang Ziyan was still calm at the moment.
Zhang Ruochen was observing Shang Ziyan, his opponent, too and nodded. He did feel impressed by this man. He could remain calm in a situation like this and it was incredible.
Shang Ziyan took out a bottle and tricolored fog floated out.
White, black, and red fog quickly filled the sky. The entire world became strangely psychedelic. The sky was red, the ground was black, and between that were strands of white light.
Black vines sprouted on the ground. They waved like dragon tails.
Shang Ziyan’s group actually vanished.

It’s Tricolored Hallucination Fog.

Zhang Ruochen hurriedly opened his Heavenly Eyes.
After reaching level 57 for Spiritual Power, Zhang Ruochen’s Heavenly Eyes had stronger power. He could even see through the Tricolored Hallucination Fog.
Shang Ziyan’s group was indeed using techniques to escape in all directions.
However, Nie Xiangzi, Feng Xi, Zhen Yuan, and Fairy Cihang weren’t average people. The mere Tricolored Hallucination Fog couldn’t fool them. They split up to chase after them.
Nie Xiangzi was as fast as lightning. He caught up to Shang Ziyan instantly. He struck with a handprint and, with Shang Ziyan as the center, space for hundreds of meters solidified. Even the Rules of Saintly Way went still.
Shang Ziyan carried Liancheng Baili with one hand. He struggled twice but to no avail. He sighed.
So powerful. The Star-Grabbing Hand can be so powerful in Senior Brother Nie’s hands.


Come with me and accept the Truth Godly Palace’s judgment,
Nie Xiangzi said.
Shang Ziyan shook his head.
That’s impossible. If I go with you, the best result would be getting expelled from the Truth Heavenly Domain and never being able to cultivate here again.

Nie Xiangzi stopped speaking. He clenched his hand and five Holy Qi pillars as thick as mountaintops appeared. They wrapped around Shang Ziyan, closing in.
Shang Ziyan withstood the huge pressure. He operated Holy Qi at full might to fend them off.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a blinding beam of light flew over from the distance. It was like a god dancing with a white ribbon and actually shattered the five beams of Holy Qi.
A ball of white light descended, arriving above Nie Xiangzi instantly.
There was a person in the light.
When Shang Ziyan saw that person, his eyes grew more relaxed. Then he took Liancheng Baili and escaped, disappearing in the horizon.
Nie Xiangzi exchanged a blow with the person in the white light. The ground caved in and spread into the distance.
Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation was still too low. He didn’t know what happened. He just saw the white light and couldn’t open his eyes again.
Feeling the strong force surge over, he used the Time and Space Secret Guide to perform the Great Spatial Move.
Such strong power. Is that really a battle between Saint Kings?
Zhang Ruochen executed the Great Spatial Move seven times and escaped hundreds of miles away, but he was still hit by the force. Thankfully, the Time and Space Secret Guide protected him, so he was only sent flying out.
As a fourth step Saint King, he probably would’ve been turned to ashes without the book.
This was why Zhang Ruochen suspected it was two Supreme Saints fighting. The shockwaves could easily kill a Saint King.
An hour later, the battle finally ended and the world calmed gradually.
Zhang Ruochen saw Feng Xi.
He went over and bowed.
Greetings, Senior Sister Feng Xi. Thank you for helping me.

Zhang Ruochen had no relationship with Zhen Yuan, Fairy Cihang or Nie Xiangzi. Naturally, he thought that Feng Xi had received the news and asked the other cultivators to come save him.
Only Feng Xi was able to ask them for help.
Feng Xi nodded. Staring deeply into Zhang Ruochen, she said,
You’re pretty amazing! You were surrounded by Shang Ziyan’s group, but you could survive until we arrived. This was quite unexpected.


I just forced myself to keep going,
Zhang Ruochen said, chuckling.
If you’d come a moment later, I would probably have turned into a pile of bloody ash now.

Zhen Yuan and Fairy Cihang transformed into two beams of light. They flew from the distance and landed beside Feng Xi. They shook their heads.
Zhang Ruochen understood. Shang Ziyan, Gong Ziyan, and the Traceless Fairy had probably escaped.
It couldn’t be helped. They were all extraordinary. Perhaps many elders below the Supreme Saint Realm could defeat them, but only a Supreme Saint could capture or kill them.

Let me introduce you to two cultivators who are connected to you—Zhen Yuan, leader of the Taoist Five Elements Temple, and Fairy Cihang, leader of the Western Buddhist Field.

Limitless Sovereign!


Amitabha!

Zhen Yuan and Fairy Cihang both smiled and studied Zhang Ruochen.
He was very surprised and confused. How was he connected to the leaders of the Taoism and Buddha Ways?
Before Zhang Ruochen could ask, Nie Xiangzi flew over.

Senior Brother, how is it?
Feng Xi asked hurriedly.
Nie Xiangzi’s brows were knitted.
A strong figure who’s at my level attacked and helped them escape. He must be one of the top ten godly disciples. I’ve already guessed who it is.

Feng Xi huffed.
They think they can escape punishment? With us as witnesses, we can definitely put them to trial. I will report it now and ask the Saint Pavilion to personally arrest them.


I’m afraid it’s not so easy,
Nie Xiangzi said.
The Heaven Sect Field has a strong presence in the Truth Godly Palace. We don’t have concrete proof and can’t take them down with just our words.


Senior Brother Nie is correct,
Zhang Ruochen.
Actually, the true reason why Shang Ziyan used the Tricolored Hallucination Fog wasn’t to escape but to get rid of evidence. Even if we report it and the elders capture them, they can say that someone used a hallucination to blind us and we’re just blaming them.

Nie Xiangzi was impressed.
You could think of this aspect. No wonder you could live until now.

Then he continued,
This assassination wasn’t successful. They won’t act rashly for the coming period. I’ll return first and meet the person who’d fought with me. Junior Sister Feng Xi, this is all yours now!

After Nie Xiangzi left, Zhang Ruochen asked his question.
Senior Brother Zhen Yuan, Senior Sister Cihang, what are the connections that Senior Sister Feng mentioned?

With his hands behind his back, Zhen Yuan said,
Our connection is actually the connection between the Five Elements Temple and Kunlun’s Field. The Five Elements Temple, the sacred land of the Taoism Way, was established by a few ancient Taoists of the Kunlun’s Field and Pangu Field. Even though we’ve lost connection for 100,000 years, the heritage of the Kunlun’s Field hasn’t ended.


I see,
Zhang Ruochen realized.

Actually, I’ve been watching you for a long time,
Zhen Yuan continued.
I didn’t meet you because I wanted to see if you qualify to be supported by the Five Elements Temple. You should know, the Heaven Field Sect is very strong. Once we decide to support you, the Temple will have to pay greatly.

Zhang Ruochen understood, so he asked,
Then, do I qualify now?


There’s hope but not enough,
Zhen Yuan said straightforwardly.
I appeared today because you have hope. Of course, we can’t supply great help before you qualify completely. Everything depends on yourself. Actually, I do wish the Kunlun’s Field can be revived, because one of my ancestors was once from the Kunlun’s Field, but…

Zhen Yuan didn’t continue. He seemed to think that it wasn’t possible. The Kunlun’s Field had fallen completely. Even if the Heaven Field Sect and Hell World didn’t attack, it would still be extremely difficult to rise again.
Fairy Cihang took out an umbrella and gave it to Zhang Ruochen.
Centuries ago, an emperor from the Kunlun’s Field crossed the vast universe to the Western Buddhist Field. He shaved his head and became a monk. Now, that emperor has become a Buddha. Before coming to the Truth Heavenly Domain, he had me give this umbrella to you.

Seeing it, Zhang Ruochen was completely frozen as if he was fossilized, but his heart pounded like thunder.
It was the…Eight-dragon Umbrella.
The Eight-dragon Umbrella, Nine-dragon Carriage, Ten-dragon Sword, Hundred-dragon Royal Ming Armor were all items that Emperor Ming had kept with him. They were also the royal weapons passed down the generations of the Sacred Central Empire’s royal Zhang Family.
