Wooosh!!

The spear at the bottom of the pit flew back into Yeming Wuyou’s hands.

​ 

That strike earlier, only just needed a little bit more for his spear to strike Zhang Ruochen. Even if he had the Armor of the Fire God that cannot be penetrated, the terrifying power that the strike carried was more than enough to inflict unimaginable damage.

“Zhang Ruochen, Elder Patriarch Death Zen, we had let you escape by chance earlier, and you two should have fled far, far away. I never thought the two of you would be so foolish to want to stop the plans of the Infernal Court. It is really a futile effort, a case of not knowing your place!”

Xuese Lianyi’s scorpion tail swayed behind him with a bloodthirsty brilliance in his eyes.

To the Fane of the Nether’s Seven Top Killers, letting Zhang Ruochen and Elder Patriarch Death Zen escape earlier was a great stain on their mark. So, they needed to take the two out even if it meant putting aside the task of seizing the treasure.

Of course, the main reason was they felt that Zhang Ruochen and Elder Patriarch Death Zen were troublesome folks. If they were to leave them be, they would cause them unnecessary trouble, so they would rather nip this threat in the bud.

Zhang Ruochen had a thought in mind and secretly said to Blackie. “Look for an opportunity to deploy your formation array. This is a rare opportunity.”

“As long as you can lure them over, leave the rest to me. Hmph, they dare look down on me, I will make them regret this.” Blackie replied.

In the seclusion before, they specifically targeted the Fane of the Nether’s Seven Top Killers and had cultivated a formation set. Unexpectedly, this would come in handy so soon.

Zhang Ruochen then secretly communicated with Ao Xinyan, Elder Patriarch Death Zen, and Corpse Emperor Tianming as they quickly a battle plan.

In a sense, the Seven Top Killers were now isolated, and there was no better opportunity to get rid of them than now.

“End this quickly. We cannot be delayed here for too long,” Xuanming Wushang said solemnly.

Suddenly, extremely powerful auras erupted from all of the Seven Top Killers, and like a tsunami, crashed at Zhang Ruochen and his fellows.

“Scorching summers, the Golden Crow immolates the skies. Die!”

Si Buxiu let out a violent howl as murderous intent burst out from his body.

Swinging his warblade, a massive world was manifested. Within it, golden crows flew, unleashing a conflagration of golden flames, causing the world to wither and all souls to perish.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes turned grim as he immediately took out the Ancient Abyssal Blade, using his Sword Soul to control the blade and unleash Sword Ten.

A piercing sword light was instantly slashed out, cutting through space as it met Si Buxiu’s Summer Blade technique.

Baaam!!

Zhang Ruochen’s sword light was instantly shattered, and it was unable to cut through the world that Si Buxiu had manifested.

“The complete Fatal Seven Formation has really enhanced Si Buxiu’s strength.” Zhang Ruochen thought.

Earlier on, the power enhancement from the formation formed by Si Buxiu, Yeming Wuyou, and Xuese Lianyi was totally incomparable to a seven-man formation.

According to Zhang Ruochen’s senses, the power of the seven combined was three times more powerful than the power of three, which was really terrifying.

Seeing the Blade Will World was crushing at him, Zhang Ruochen struck again and tried his best to resist the attack.

Right now, the others cannot yet make their move, so he could only rely on himself to resolve the crisis.

Baaaammm!

The Blade Will World was eventually broken by Zhang Ruochen, but he too suffered a great impact as he was sent reeling. There was a muffled groan in his throat as the blood in his body surged violently, and was almost wounded in the process.

On the other side, the scorpion tail behind Xuese Lianyi extended rapidly as it stung towards Elder Patriarch Death Zen. At the same time, a terrifying poison mist was released from his body, forming blood-colored ripples.

Elder Patriarch Death Zen chanted a Buddha’s name, as a majestic such of Death Zen Dharmic power emerged from his body and poured into the Robe of Thousand Treasures.

Suddenly, the thousands of treasures on the robes were activated, blooming in brilliant radiance as colors of all kinds intertwined, forming a seven-layer defensive screen.

At this moment, Elder Patriarch Death Zen wore a solemn appearance. His brows were drooping, and his face was compassionate as if he was a Bodhisattva descending upon the realm, trying to save the world from suffering.

“The Great Mudra of Emancipation,” Elder Patriarch Death Zen whispered softly as he formed a strange mudra.

A majestic Death Zen Dharmic power surged, condensing into a massive hand thousands of feet in size as it slammed at Xuese Lianyi.

Immediately after, he infused the Dharmic powers into the divine war corpse and drove it using the full might of the Death Zen Dharma.

Raaaawrrr!

The divine war corpse howled as the monstrous divine power and corpse energy within it layered on top of each other. They focused and catalyzed into a fist before blasting out in a flash.

With the force of the fist, violent ripples appeared in the space within thousands of miles as the precepts of heaven and earth and the power of the land surged over.

For a time, the fist of the divine war corpse became extremely bright, and like a comet, crashed toward the Seven Top Killers.

In contrast, the power of the divine war corpse was far stronger than Elder Patriarch Death Zen himself.

Seeing the fist of the divine war corpse blasting out, Zhang Ruochen, Ao Xinyan, and Corpse Emperor Tianming could not help but be astonished. This fist was too powerful, so powerful that it could crush the stars beyond, and severely wounding a Supreme Saint.

However, the Seven Top Killers looked extremely calm as if they had never taken the divine war corpse seriously.

“A mayfly trying to shake a tree, you really don’t know your place.”

As the Nether Lotus rotated, an extremely condensed dark divine light blasted out and struck first.

Baaaam!

The dark divine light carried with it a massive power and was unstoppable. Not only did it instantly break the war corpse’s attack, but it even blasted it away.

The divine war corpse flew hundreds of miles away before stopping.

A hideous wound could be seen on the body of the war corpse as the power of darkness eroded at it. Even with the war corpse’s regenerative abilities, it could not instantly heal up.

Seeing this scene, the expressions of Zhang Ruochen and the others unwittingly change slightly. The Seven Top Killers truly deserved their fame.

With such terrifying power, it was no wonder they were invincible beneath a Supreme Saint, and even those first-level powerhouses beneath a Supreme Saint needed to be extremely wary when facing them.

“Zhang Ruochen, take this!”

Si Buxiu struck again, but this time, it was four strikes in tandem.

Four worlds representing spring, summer, autumn, and winter were manifested at the same time and closely integrated with one another. They perfectly manifested the true meaning of the four seasons as they formed into a terrifying vortex that enveloped Zhang Ruochen.

A series of dark divine light entered the vortex, causing the aura it exuded to be even more terrifying, as it seemed like it could destroy everything in the world.

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze became extremely grim as he quickly swung his sword and used his Sword Will of Time and Space without any reservations.

Invisible fluctuations of time and space appeared, causing the time and space within hundreds of miles to become chaotic.

A crystal flower of Sword Will slowly bloomed, unleashing an endless stream of Sword Qi of Time and Space.

“Blossoming Cadence, all shall return to oblivion.”

A fierce glint appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.

As he used this self-created first style of the Swordsmanship of Time, he perfected it more and more.

The creation of any saint art required repeated tries and testing, and it was not perfected overnight.

Boom!

As the Flower of Sword Will shattered, it transformed into a devastating Sword Qi, blasting into the terrifying vortex.

The vortex spun violently and then burst open as a violently destructive force was unleashed and swept in all directions.

This was no longer Si Buxiu’s own attack, but the culmination of the Seven Top Killers’ power. The strike they had unleashed, even a Neverwither Supreme Saint may not be able to withstand it.

Booom!

The earth within a radius of hundreds of miles shattered and a storm of dust was sent flying, as the terrifying force enveloped Zhang Ruochen and his fellows.

At the same time, the Seven Top Killers converged at the center, narrowing the area covered by the Fatal Seven Formation as they tried to seal off any route of retreats.

“It’s over. The Kunlun Realm’s so-called God of War, facing us, the Seven Top Killers, is no better than acting as fodder.” Si Buxiu spat with disdain.

There were cold sneers in the eyes of the others. It was a very pleasant thing for them to slaughter the elites of the Kunlun Realm.

A moment later, as the violent power gradually dissipated, a massive pit with a radius of hundreds of miles appeared before the Seven Top Killers.

“Hmm?”

Si Buxiu’s brow suddenly frowned a little.

At the bottom of the pit, there were nineteen figures standing, and Zhang Ruochen and the other four were with them, and all were unscathed.

That blow just now not only failed to kill Zhang Ruochen and the other four, but instead, another fourteen had emerged out of thin air. What was happening?

Right then, there was a slight change in Xuanming Wushang’s expression as a formation array had appeared behind them, and had enveloped them inside it.

“Hahaha, now you’ve fallen into my Ninth-Rank Formation, let’s see how arrogant you guys can get!” Blackie could not help but laugh.

Now that the formation that had successfully set up, and the Seven Top Killers had been successfully enveloped within it, naturally, there was no need to hide anymore.

Si Buxiu snorted. “You think a mere Ninth-Rank Formation can do anything to us, the Seven Top Killers? Fools. No matter what plans you have, it is pointless before absolute power.”

Although the situation before him was somewhat unexpected, the Seven Top Killers had absolute confidence in their strength, and they were not afraid of any tricks that Zhang Ruochen and his clique may have.

“You dare to look down on my formation array. Just you wait, soon all you dogsh*t Seven Top Killers can forget about running away.” Blackie spat aggressively.

For this set of array flags that he had refined once again, Blackie could be said to have absolute confidence in it. Plus with the fourteen powerful Awakened, he did not believe he was helpless against the Seven Top Killers.”

With the help of the Ninth-Rank Formation, Zhang Ruochen and the others instantly disappeared from the pit and escaped the Seven Top Killers’ encirclement.

At the first moment, the fourteen Awakened ones acted in tandem as they continuously infused their Saint Qi into the Silver Shenlong Armor on Ao Xinyan.

Suddenly, the armor burst into bright silver-white light as the mighty power of Shenlong was unleashed.

“Rawrr!!”

Following a high-pitched dragon’s roar, the Silver Shenlong Armor transformed into a Pentaclaw Silver Dragon spanning thousands of miles long, exuding an overwhelming dragon’s might as if it was about to crush the heavens.

This Silver Shenlong Armor was originally created from the dragon skin and dragon scales of a fallen Pentaclaw Silver Dragon. Unparalleled Shenlong power was contained within, and if it could be roused, even a top-level Supreme Saint might not be able to resist it.

The power of the fourteen Awakened Ones, combined with Ao Xinyan’s own strength, the power of Shenlong roused was undoubtedly shocking, enough to crush an ordinary Neverwither Supreme Saint.

The Pentaclaw Silver Dragon was very dominating as it stretched out a giant dragon claw and carrying with it a massive surge of power of Shenlong, as it was about to deliver a fatal blow to the Seven Top Killers.

At the same time, Zhang Ruochen struck, taking out the Zangshan Demonic Mirror and communicated with its vessel spirit, unleashing a series of powerful supreme power.

With the improvement in Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation, it was now possible for him to unleash a stronger power from the Zangshan Demonic Mirror.

For a time, the Zangshan Demonic Mirror transformed into a majestic ancient demonic mountain as black Demonic Qi was agitated and came pressing down from above.

Corpse Emperor Tianming and Elder Patriarch Death Zen would not stand idly by as the former took out the Talisman of Destiny either. He roused the Supreme Saint power inside it as he seemingly wanted to transform into an unparalleled emperor of yore.

Elder Patriarch Death Zen released the divine war corpse and used the Death Zen Dharma to rouse it before he blasted out a palm strike, causing the space to tremble endlessly.

The only person who did not make a move was Blackie. It had a very important task, to manipulate the Ninth-Rank Formation Array to trap the Fane of the Nether’s Seven Top Killers.

With so many powerhouses making their moves, there was no rush to activate the offensive capabilities of the formation.

Seeing all sorts of attacks coming at them, the eyes of all of the Seven Top Killers could not help but turn grim as they did not hesitate and immediate moved to block the attack.

The power of seven elites combined to manifest a massive dark vortex with a diameter of more than a thousand feet, like a black hole in the depths of the universe as it unleashed a terrifying suction force to devour everything.

Crack!

Around the dark vortex, the space continued to shatter and collapse, revealing a dark void.

Clearly, the Seven Top Killers had sensed a threat and no longer held back as they unleashed the true killing move of the Fatal Seven Formation.

At this moment, the lotus, serving as the core of the formation had completely materialized and became massive. The Seven Top Killers all entered it, and their powers became even more closely intertwined as if they were one.

It was extremely rare for the Seven Top Killers to be fighting in such a state.

Boom!

The Pentaclaw Silver Dragon stretched its claw out, carrying with it a torrent of Shenlong’s power, and as it made contact with the vortex, it paused and could no longer spin.

When the attacks of Zhang Ruochen, Elder Patriarch Death Zen, and Corpse Emperor Tianming struck, the dark vortex was no longer able to withstand it and burst apart, unleashing a monstrous wave of power of darkness.

“Where did these people come from? How could they have such power?”

For a moment, the hearts of all seven of the killers were shocked.

Persons who possessed such strength should not be unknown.

However, the problem was that they had no information about these people, and it felt like all of them had emerged out of thin air.

Amidst their shock, the Seven Top Killers did not forget to fight back, as they once again unleashed their combination technique, focusing all of the power on Yeming Wuyou’s spear to meet the dragon claw.

The spear was a Supreme Sacred Artifact, and it was made out of extraordinary material with indestructible characteristics.

Clang!

The tip of the spear landed on the dragon claw as the Supreme Power collided with the power of Shenlong, causing the large area of space to be instantly torn apart.

A powerful storm erupted, carrying with it a destructive momentum as it sweeping across all sides.

In an instant, all peaks within a radius of hundreds of miles were shattered and razed to the ground.

One needed to know that this was the True Dragon Island, its spatial structure was extremely stable, and its earth too indestructible, even if one were to destroy it, it was extremely difficult.

If any other ordinary Saint Kings were to strike, they would find it extremely difficult to shatter even a small mountain.

“Strike together, destroy the Fane of the Nether’s Seven Top Killers!”

Zhang Ruochen growled as he infused his Saint Qi into the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon’s body.

Hearing this, Corpse Emperor Tianming and Elder Patriarch Death Zen did not tarry as they unreservedly infused their Saint Qi into it.

At this juncture, concentrate their powers to attack was undoubtedly much more effective.

And now they had the upper hand, there was no need to drag this one. They should go all out so that the Seven Top Killers have no power to fight back.

Baaammm!

The spear could not resist the power of the dragon claw and was sent flying.

As a mighty force crushed down upon them, all of the Seven Top Killers’ bodies tremble violently.

Dushhh!

Almost at the same time, blood spurted out from the mouths of all of the Seven Top Killers.

While within the Fatal Seven Formation, glory and shame were shared, and no one was spared.

“D*mn it, how are there so many top-level powerhouses in the Kunlun Realm?” Si Buxiu said with a stern expression, his heart full of resentment.

Originally, it was them who were lying in wait to ambush Zhang Ruochen and Elder Patriarch Death Zen, removing these two potential hidden dangers, but unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, they had become the ambushed instead as they were now trapped inside Zhang Ruochen’s formation array.

Yeming Wuyou said grimly. “Brother, the attack power of this Pentaclaw Silver Dragon is too strong. If we continue to fight we will only suffer grievous harm. We must retreat as soon as possible.”

The power of eighteen top-level powerhouses rousing the Silver Shenlong Armor was also equivalent to a combination attack, but its strength was far, far stronger than the Fatal Seven Formation.

“Retreat first, we’ll deal with them later.” Xuanming Wushang’s immediately made the decision.

As he spoke, the Nether Lotus released a surge of power of darkness that condensed into a dark thunderball hundreds of feet in size. It combined the power of darkness and the power of thunder perfectly as it unleashed an extremely devastating aura.

The dark thunderball flew out and hit the claws of the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon.

At the same time, Si Buxiu struck, swinging his four hands at the same time and slicing out four devastating blade lights towards the Ninth-Rank Formation that was sealing the area.

Booommm!

The dark thunderball exploded, releasing an extremely violent power as it formed a huge energy storm and swallowed the Pentaclaw Silver Dragon whole.

Si Buxiu’s blade light was something that could even cut a top-tier sacred artifact in two. However, when it landed on the formation array, it only caused it to ripple a little and did no damage at all.

“How can this be?”

Si Buxiu’s eyes widened, and could not believe what he saw.

The Blade of Four Seasons that was enhanced by the Fatal Seven Formation was an attack that even a Supreme Saint needed to avoid. Yet, it could not break through a Ninth-Rank Array.

“Hahaha, now you know how powerful I am. For the mere likes of you to want to break through my Ninth-Rank formation, you’re still far, far from capable.” Blackie could not help but laugh smugly.

Its Ninth-Rank Formation was a formation that uses the Evil Spirit as the array spirit, and using the divine power of the Divine Python corpse that the Evil Spirit had occupied as a power source was even better than using Godstones.

The power contained inside a Godstone can still be exhausted, but the Divine Python corpse can continuously create divine power by absorbing the vital power of the realm.

“Take my Blade of Time!” Blackie roared.

The Ninth-Rank Array activated as an invisible Power of Time erupted, and like a blade, slashed at the Seven Fatals of the Fane of the Nether.

Even with the Nether Lotus’ protection, the Seven Top Killers were still wounded by the Blade of Time and had at least a hundred years of their lifespan instantly shaved off.

As a result of that, the Seven Top Killers’ auras were greatly weakened, as the energy flow in their bodies was disrupted. Then, cracks appeared in their formation as the Nether Lotus beneath them almost shattered.
