Chapter 2319: Armor of Darkness

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The other seven Celestial Captives in the Hundred-Shackle Realm had survived, but they were all seriously injured. The divine flame melted their skin and soaked into their blood, flesh, and bone marrow. It kept burning, making them suffer.

“They’re all yours. Don’t let any of them live,” Zhang Ruochen ordered Saint Devourer. The space around him shook and he disappeared.

From the moment he decided to fight for first place in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting, Zhang Ruochen had hidden all his compassion and made himself ruthless and cold-blooded.

One Word, kill.

Kindness would not only harm him, but it would also not achieve his goal.

‘The 12 Celestial Captives in the Hundred-Shackle Realm represented millions of points.

According to Gu Chenzi’s initial calculations, the Bloodysky Clan only needed six million points in the Battle of Celestial-Hunting to reach the middle level and complete the mission of the Bloodysky Clan’s gods.

Killing all 12 Hundred-Shackle Realm Celestial Captives would almost collect enough points.

If Zhang Ruochen used another method, he could find 12 Hundred- Shackle Realm Celestial Captives hiding in various locations throughout the vast Battle of Celestial-Huntingfield and kill them all while they were attempting to flee.

100 days was not enough.

Therefore, such an opportunity today could only be found by chance.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to kill them for this reason, even if he was seriously injured. He didn’t want to pass up this fantastic opportunity.

“Master, don’t worry. I will eat them all… one by one… hehe…

aid Moyin.

Moyin’s delicate and charming face lit up with a soul-stirring smile. She didn’t need Zhang Ruochen’s instructions to kill and devour Celestial Captives. She couldn’t have wished for anything better.

Whoosh

The vines that had been cut off by the silver tomahawk absorbed the Saint Qi, blood qi, Sainthood Source, and Saint Soul Fragments of the three dead Celestial Captives. Purple leaves and vines instantly grew back.

There were more than 400 purple vines in total. All of them grew to a thousand miles long.

They not only grew the main branch, but they also grew a lot of vines.

Lightning and Divine Purification Flame surged on the vines and leaves. They turned into a sea of lightning and fire, trapping the seven Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints inside. They couldn’t escape no matter what.

“It’s just a Saint Devourer. How can it be so terrifying? With our Hundred-Shackle Realm cultivation, we can’t beat it,” said one of the seven Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints.

“A plant that’s not afraid of lightning and fire. Instead, it can control it. It must be Zhang Ruochen’s parasitic plant. Whatever Zhang Ruochen is good at, it can get the same ability,” said another one of the seven Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints.

‘The seven Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints were angry and desperate at the same time.

They had placed their hopes on Zhi Shang. However, when they looked over, they realized that a streak of blinding golden light had exploded in the distant void.

Zhi Shang was thrown out of the golden light. A bloody hole the size of a bowl had appeared in his chest. The fluctuation of Saint Qi on his body weakened rapidly.

Zhang Ruochen, who stood in the golden light, chased after him. The five golden wings on the left side of his back slashed at Zhi Shang’s body one after another. They broke the defense of the Neverwither physique and cut Zhi Shang into two halves.

Zhi Shang was still alive.

Zhang Ruochen formed a Dimensional Storm with his sleeve, blowing the two halves of Zhi Shang into the sky above the sea of thunder and fire where the Saint Devourer vines intertwined.

“Thank you for the reward, Master,” said Moyin.

Moyin smiled charmingly and blinked her bright eyes. She separated two vines and twined around the two halves of Zhi Shang, constantly absorbing his blood qi and Saint Qi.

Pan Ruo, Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, Mistress Fireborn, Lord Sinluo, and Mad Whitejade Lion rode The Scroll of Truth and Deceit to this starfield. They were all shocked when they saw the Saint Devourer vines that covered a thousand miles.

“Those 12 Celestial Captives in the Hundred-Shackle Realm are so weak. They can’t even deal with a seriously injured Zhang Ruochen?” Mad Whitejade Lion said in disappointment.

Lord Sinluo was quite disdainful, he said, “Other than the five Celestial Captives in the Thousand-Koan Realm and Lord Hornless, the other Celestial Captives are just easy prey. It’s a pity that Zhang Ruochen has all the benefits. Killing them will earn him a lot of points.”

Mistress Fireborn looked at Pan Ruo and said meaningfully, “Zhang Ruochen’s points are too easy to earn, aren’t they?”

There was blame in her words.

Pan Ruo was not taken aback. “Easy? There are 12 Supreme Saints of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, one of whom is at the Hundred-Shackle Realm’s Great Perfection stage. What happens if you fight them both at the same time?

“I miscalculated, but who would have thought that Zhang Ruochen would be so powerful as soon as he broke through to the Hundred-Shackle Realm?

“Who would have thought that Zhang Ruochen would be able to obtain a great opportunity in the underground of the Ghost’s home planet, and his cultivation would soar?

“Just now, we went to the underground of the Ghost’s home planet. You were all terrified by the golden fog. Even the Supreme Artifact couldn’t stop it completely. Zhang Ruochen must have discovered some kind of secret to be given this opportunity.

“Besides, Zhang Ruochen is already seriously injured. Because of the Saint Devourer, he was able to deal with 12 Celestial Captives in the Hundred-Shackle Realm. This is also a variable beyond our expectations.”

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei said, “The battle strength of this Saint Devourer is indeed terrifying, If I don’t have a Supreme Artifact, I might not be able to deal with it.”

The others were all taken aback when they heard this.

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei was the number one Deathkin powerhouse, ranked 12th on the list of Great Perfection stage of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. Even if he didn’t use a Supreme Artifact, most of the Supreme Saints in the initial stage of the Thousand-Koan Realm weren’t his match.

Did this mean that the Saint Devourer was a Supreme Saint elite in the Thousand-Koan Realm?

Supreme Saing Yuan Fei said, “The seven Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints were suppressed by it. Ordinary Supreme Saints in the initial stage of the Thousand-Koan Realm can’t do it.”

“While the Saint Devourer is still dealing with the Celestial Captive, we will attack immediately and kill Zhang Ruochen first. As long as we kill Zhang Ruochen, as a parasitic plant, the Saint Devourer will naturally die,” said Mistress Fireborn and put on a cold smile.

Pan Ruo said, “Everyone must be on guard against the Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive who hasn’t shown up yet. Be careful not to suffer a great loss.”

“Your Highness Pan Ruo, why are you still so timid even at this moment? The so-called Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive was your guess from the beginning. If he really came, how could he just watch as the Hundred-Shackle Realm Celestial Captives were killed? In my opinion, there is no such

person as the Thousand-Koan Realm Celestial Captive,” said Mistress Fireborn.

Mistress Fireborn added, “If you continue to be so conservative, I’m afraid that the plan to kill Zhang Ruochen will fail.”

There was always a battle between women, especially beautiful women.

Pan Ruo didn’t pay attention to Mistress Fireborn. Suddenly, she narrowed her eyes and asked, “Where’s Zhang Ruochen?”

Just now, Zhang Ruochen had disappeared from their sight.

“He must have used the Power of Dimension to move somewhere else. Did he sense that we were hiding nearby?” said Pan Ruo.

Everyone used their own methods to look for Zhang Ruochen.

Que Fei, who was hiding in the white fog, was also surprised. He quickly pressed his hands on his temples and muttered, “Eye of Darkness.”

His pupils dilated and filled the whites of his eyes. His eyes became completely black.

“Power of Darkness. No wonder you can hide so well.”

Zhang Ruochen’s voice sounded behind Que Fei. It seemed to be right beside his ears.

Que Fei’s face tuned extremely pale. In this critical situation, he pressed his palms together. In an instant, his skin split open.

Pieces of black metal rushed out from under his skin and turned into armor.

Boom

Zhang Ruochen’s right palm, carrying the power of three elephant souls in the Thousand-Koan Realm, hit Que Fei’s back.

“The Ray of Darkness devours everything,” Que Fei shouted.

What was surprising was that Zhang Ruochen’s palm could pierce through Zhi Shang’s Neverwither physique. However, when it hit Que Fei’s back, it felt like it hit the air.

Not only that but there was also a powerful rotating force pulling his palm forward.

Zhang Ruochen’s vision was dark as if he had fallen into a dark abyss. The strong sense of weightlessness made him feel very uncomfortable.

‘Armor of Darkness.’ Zhang Ruochen thought in his mind.

The so-called Armor of Darkness was an armor refined by the Fane of Darkness using one of the top ten substances in the universe, dark matter. It was supported by the Power of Darkness.

‘When the Armor of Darkness was worn, it not only had incredible defensive power, but it could also absorb Saint Qi energy from the enemy’s body and transform it into its own power. It even had an impact on time and space.

Que Fei did not bring any weapon into the Battle of Celestial-Huntingfield. He only brought the Armor of Darkness.

Zhang Ruochen’s palm power and the Divine Purification Flame, including the Precepts of the Palm, were all continuously absorbed by the Armor of Darkness.

The three Thousand-Koan Realm elephant souls in his arms roared. Even they were absorbed by the Dark Power. They escaped from Zhang Ruochen’s arms and rushed into the armor.

“Zhang Ruochen, I was prepared to deal with you. The Power of Darkness, it’s truly amazing, right?” Que Fei laughed.

“I don’t believe that a mere Armor of Darkness can swallow everything.”

Zhang Ruochen shouted coldly. He mobilized all the Precepts of Dimension in his sea of Qi and rushed towards his right palm. When the Precepts of Dimension gushed out from his palm, they transformed into Power of Dimension and became layers of dimensional shock waves.

Bang Bang Bang

‘When the dimensional shock wave struck Que Fei’s back, his expression changed slightly. The Armor of Darkness clearly could not absorb the Power of Dimension completely.

The dimensional shock power passed through the Armor of Darkness and hit Que Fei’s Neverwither physique.

Finally, Que Fei couldn’t take it any longer. He spat out three mouthfuls of Saint blood in quick succession. His body was the size of a cannonball. Zhang Ruochen’s palm power launched him into the air.

Although Zhang Ruochen had injured Que Fei, he had suffered a smaller but comparable level of damage. Blood flowed out of his mouth. His right hand had been corroded by the power of the Armor of Darkness. The bones of his fingers were exposed.

His entire arm was covered in ley lines of Darkness.

‘The Power of Darkness was eroding his body. His right arm became numb. He couldn’t muster any strength.

“As expected of the nine Paths of the Ancients. The Power of Darkness has been cultivated to a high level. It’s so terrifying.”

Zhang Ruochen mobilized the life essence of the Divine Purification Flame and the Heart of the Divine Tree to refine the Power of Darkness. At the same time, he turned into a streak of golden light and used ten golden wings to attack Que Fei.

“The Power of Darkness can’t completely swallow the Power of Dimension. As expected of the nine Paths of the Ancients.”

Que Fei looked back and his expression changed again. He immediately turned into a streak of black light and flew forward.

Que Fei’s speed was faster than Zhang Ruochen had expected. Pink Skull and Xu were ranked higher than Que Fei on the Hundred-Shackle Realm’s Great Perfection stage list. However, they were much slower than Que Fei in terms of speed.

Below the Thousand-Koan Realm, only Que’s speed could beat Que Fei.

Although Lan Ying and Yan Huangtu were also very fast, it was unknown if they could surpass Que Fei.

The black and gold light shuttles chased and flew in the six-colored starry sky. Wherever they passed, the rocks in the universe crumbled and turned into dust.

“Que Fei has been exposed. Hurry up and chase after him,” said Supreme Saint Yuan Fei.

Supreme Saint Yuan Fei controlled The Scroll of Truth and Deceit and activated the Supreme Power. He brought Pan Ruo, Mad Whitejade Lion, Lord Sinluo, and Mistress Fireborn and chased after the black and gold light beams.

Zhang Ruochen chased after them. He took out the Ghost-headed Whip and lashed it at Que Fei.

“Shadow Clones.”

Que Fei’s body split into 100.

100 Que Fei flew at the same time. Their bodies were disordered and had the power of hallucination.

BOOM! BOOM!

The Ghost-headed Whip smashed dozens of Que Fei’s bodies into pieces, but it didn’t hit Que Fei’s real body.

Zhang Ruochen used the Eye of Truth to identify them, but he found that Que Fei’s real body kept changing positions in the illusions. Each illusion could turn into his real body in the next moment.

In other words, he did not have a fixed real body.

“Such a clever Shadow clone technique?”

Zhang Ruochen activated the Power of Dimension again. He performed the Great Dimensional Shift and appeared in front of Que Fei during his rapid flight. He tuned around and struck out with his palm.

“Zhang Ruochen, you are seriously injured, but you still chase me. Do you really think I am a pushover?” said Que Fei.

Que Fei was determined. He mobilized the Power of Darkness and condensed a dark longsword in his hand.

Que Fei thrust the sword toward Zhang Ruochen’s palm.

If Zhang Ruochen was still in his prime, Que Fei might have been a little afraid of him. But now, Zhang Ruochen was just a sick tiger, trying to hold on.

Zhang Ruochen did not want to directly touch Que Fei, who was wearing the Armor of Darkness. Therefore, what he struck out with his palm was not the power of the palm, but the dimensional shock wave.

Que Fei had been at a disadvantage in the dimensional shock wave. Unlike Ye Changzai, who was unprepared, he sensed the dimensional shock wave. He immediately brandished the dark longsword in his hand, breaking the dimensional shock wave.

“Take this. Darkness descends.” Que Fei said.

The dark longsword struck down in Que Fei’s hand.

Zhang Ruochen’s Ghost-headed Whip shrank to only five feet in length. Driven by Saint Qi, it became hard and straight, like a sword filled with Ghostly Qi.

“Td like to see if your sword is faster than yours.”

Zhang Ruochen was never afraid of anyone in a sword fight.

“Sword Ten.”

Zhang Ruochen used the Ghost-headed Whip and drew a circle around his body.

In the circle, sword Qi crisscrossed. Thousands of Sword shadows appeared and merged with Zhang Ruochen’s body. The next moment, Zhang Ruochen soared through the sky and stabbed toward Que Fei.

Diagonally above.

Que Fei slashed down with his sword. Instantly, the starry sky became pitch black, as if night had fallen.

No one could see where the sword was. The sword had merged with the darkness..
