Chapter 2426: Interlocution

In front of a god like Wargod Bloodximius, no cultivator could remain calm. What’s more, the secret that he didn’t want to reveal was exposed on the spot.

Zhang Ruochen maintained his composure and replied, “I have a slight understanding.”

If he continued to deceive, it would only make Wargod Bloodximius contempt and dislike him. It was better to admit and face it calmly.

Wargod Bloodximius was not an ordinary person. There was no point in playing tricks in front of him.

Zhang Ruochen added, “The Six Paths of Reincarnation and Yin Yang Five-Element can be united into one. They represent the foundation of the truth of heaven and earth. However, it is extremely difficult to reach full strength.”

“I have now integrated six types of Saintwill. It seems that I am only one step away. However, standing in my current position and seeing the road ahead, I realize that the last step is still far away.”

“Difficult. It’s almost impossible to unite Yin Yang Five-Element.”

In the past, Zhang Ruochen stood on the ground and wanted to ascend to the sky. He saw the majestic mountain peak in the distance connecting with the sky. He thought that he could touch the sky when he climbed up the mountain peak.

He thought that it was possible.

After experiencing thousands of difficulties and blockages, Zhang Ruochen has finally climbed the mountain peak.

The people standing on the ground thought that he was only one step away from ascending to the sky. A light step would do the job.

However, only Zhang Ruochen, who was standing at the peak of the mountain knew that he was still infinitely far away from the sky. It was many times farther than the road he had taken.

In the past, there was at least a road to climb the mountain. Now, there was no road at all!

The battle with Yan Wushen showed Zhang Ruochen the distance between him and the sky.

The clearer he saw it, the more desperate he felt.

If Zhang Ruochen hadn’t been a mortal for three lifetimes and experienced every difficult situation, he would have broken down and given up on ascending to the sky.

“Are you going to give up, or do you want to continue?” asked Wargod Bloodximius.

“I want to continue. I want to condense Grade One Saintwill no matter what it cost,” Zhang Ruochen said without hesitation.

Clad in the divine armor, Wargod Bloodximius sat in the center of his Divine Plane. He was silent for a long time, “Only a cultivator who has condensed Grade Two Saintwill can understand the difficulty of condensing Grade One Saintwill. The Saintwill you’ve cultivated has reached the limit of a Grade Two Saintwill. It even has a hint of the charm of Grade One Saintwill. It’s a Grade One I’ve never reached before.”

At this point, Wargod Bloodximius paused and then said, “You should know very well now how far you are from Grade One Saintwill, right?”

“Very clear,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Wargod Bloodximius looked into the sky and said, “I too wanted to walk the path of cultivating Grade One Saintwill. However, I gave up in the end due to various reasons. After becoming a god, I’ve got a deeper understanding of Saintwills, Canons, and precepts of heaven and earth. Do you want to hear it?”

“Please guide me, Wargod.”

Zhang Ruochen cupped his hands and bowed.

There were very few cultivators in the world who could guide Zhang Ruochen to break through Grade One Saintwill and find a road for him. Wargod Bloodximius, was one of the few.

Wargod Bloodximius said, “I don’t know how to condense Grade One Saintwill. But I’m sure that with your current ability, it’s impossible to condense it successfully.

“Condensing Saintwill requires external conditions as well as self-strengthening conditions.

“As for external conditions, you have Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill and Violet Gourd. They’re all rare treasures. I can even send you to Fane of Immortality and lend you a hand. So external conditions aren’t important.”

Zhang Ruochen asked, “What more do I need to improve myself?”

Wargod Bloodximius stretched out his right index finger and said, “First, advance your cultivation to the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm and break all the shackles in your body.”

Then he stretched out his middle finger and said, “Second, spiritual power. Your spiritual power must be improved to a more powerful level.”

“My spiritual power has reached the 65th level,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Wargod Bloodximius shook his head, “For other Supreme Saints, the 65th level is already very impressive. However, if you want to integrate with Grade One Saintwill, your spiritual power is far from enough. If you can become a god with spiritual power and reach the 70th level, it will be a great help to integrate with Saintwills.”

Zhang Ruochen’s pupils constricted.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t even dare to imagine that he could reach the 70th level of spiritual power and become a god in Hundred-Shackle Realm.

The 70th level of spiritual power was enough to challenge a TrueGod.

Before he could say anything, Wargod Bloodximius said, “Considering your young age and lack of experience, it’s almost impossible for you to reach the 70th level of spiritual power in a thousand years. So, I want you to reach level 67 or level 68 of spiritual power first.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “With the help of Sundial, even if it takes 1,000 or 2,000 years, I will reach level 70 of spiritual power. It’s the best preparation to integrate with the Saintwills.”

Zhang Ruochen thought that he would get the support of Wargod Bloodximius, but this time, Wargod Bloodximius stared at him without saying a word.

“What do you think is wrong?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Wargod Bloodximius said, “If we only rely on time treasures and Time Arrays to create top-level elites without limit. The number of gods in Infernal Court would be many times more than now. They would have already turned Celestial Court into ashes.

“Sundial is indeed a very powerful time treasure. If Sundial had not been destroyed, it does have that kind of ability.

“Sundial could cover a very wide area. When a cultivator cultivates in it, one could experience, fight, and comprehend inside it. One can experience all kinds of things in life and the world.”

Zhang Ruochen said thoughtfully, “Wargod, you mean that Sundial is incomplete. It can only be used for me to cultivate in it, but not for me to fight and experience in it?”

“You can think of it that way!”

Wargod Bloodximius said, “There are no less than 10 time treasures like the broken Sundial in Infernal Court. Most of them are given to Saint-level cultivators to rapidly increase their cultivation.

“To gods, it’s useless.

“Unless the range of the time treasure can cover the entire body of the god and the entire Divine Plane.

“Even so, the powerful power of a god will still impact Mark of Time, making it unable to enter the god’s body. Just like your current attainments in Time, you can pose a threat to any Saint-level cultivator, but you can’t do anything to a god. You won’t be able to cut off a god’s lifespan if he stood there and let you.”

Wargod Bloodximius continued, “It only took you a very short time to raise your spiritual power from level 60 to level 65. This was the help of Divine Sky-connecting Tree’s Heart of the Divine Tree and Intergold Tiger. However, have you digested the knowledge contained in Heart of the Divine Tree?”

Zhang Ruochen nodded.

Wargod Bloodximius said, “The knowledge contained in Heart of the Divine Tree is already vast enough. With this foundation, it will be much easier for you to cultivate your spiritual power.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “The knowledge contained in Heart of the Divine Tree is all-encompassing. It includes astronomy, geography, the mystery of the arrays, Talisman, pills, language, logic, and arithmetic… Although I have integrated this knowledge, they are still disordered in my mind. Only by deliberately meditating can I find the information I want.”

Wargod Bloodximius asked, “You haven’t integrated Path of Fire Saintwill yet, right? ”

“That’s right.”

“Then let me ask you a question. What is Path of Fire?”

Zhang Ruochen was stunned.

“Is there no knowledge related to Path of Fire contained in Divine Sky-connecting Tree?”

There was.

Of course there was, and there were many of them.

It was because there were too many of them that Zhang Ruochen had no idea how to answer them.

If he organized all the knowledge about Divine Sky-connecting Tree and wrote it down on paper, he could probably load dozens of carriages.

Zhang Ruochen thought carefully. The more he thought about it, the more things appeared in his mind. They were countless and endless making his head hurt more and more. It was as if thousands of needles were stabbing his scalp

“AH!”

With a scream, Zhang Ruochen fell to the ground.

Wargod Bloodximius watched quietly and did not help him, “Although you have integrated Divine Sky-connecting Tree’s knowledge, this knowledge doesn’t belong to you. You still need countless years of tempering and digestion before it can be completely transformed into something that belongs to you. By then, you should be able to become a god with your spiritual power and reach level 70.

“And this process isn’t something that you can complete by using Sundial. In Sundial, even if you cultivate for a thousand years or ten thousand years, the final result will be the same as now. You’ll have a splitting headache as if you’ve gone mad.

“If you want to completely transform this knowledge into your own, you need to travel thousands of miles, experience thousands of worldly affairs, and truly comprehend the knowledge from the details of your experiences.”

Zhang Ruochen forced himself to stop thinking. Gradually, the pain in his head lessened. He got up from the ground, drenched.

Wargod Bloodximius continued, “Walking is an experience. Eating is an experience. Taking a wife is an experience. Killing is an experience. Saving people is also an experience. Everything you experience is an experience. It’s all about comprehension.”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Thank you for your guidance, Wargod.”

Wargod Bloodximius said, “Do you know that with your current cultivation, you can be stronger?”

“Stronger? How strong can I be?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Wargod Bloodximius said, “Strong enough that if you do it all over again, you can defeat Yan Wushen without getting hurt. Do you know why you are so weak?”

If a Supreme Saint of Infernal Court heard this, one would cry.

How was Zhang Ruochen weak?

Zhang Ruochen shook his head.

Wargod Bloodximius said, “Whether it’s your spiritual power or cultivation, you have improved too quickly. You lack the necessary stabilization.

“You have both Five-element Chaotic Saint Qi and Blood force in your body, but they’re too mixed and not condensed enough. The result is that you can’t cast saint techniques fast enough, and activate the power of Supreme Artifact strong enough. Your reaction speed to danger is slow.”

Zhang Ruochen was deeply touched because it was always difficult to trigger ten times the attack when fighting with top masters. Moreover, it was difficult to perform Thousand-Koan level’s advanced Saint technique in the shortest time.

Wargod Bloodximius continued, “You have Five-element Chaotic Neverwither Physique and Demigod-level physique. You should be invincible in all battles. However, you were repeatedly injured when fighting with Que, Yan Wushen, and Lan Ying. Your Neverwither physique is like paper, and your Demigod-level physique is like tofu.”

Zhang Ruochen did not admit it in his heart. After all, Que, Yan Wushen, Lan Ying, and others were all extraordinary people. It was not shameful to be injured by them.

Besides, they were more seriously injured.

Wargod Bloodximius seemed to see what he was thinking. He said, “You are a person who wants to fuse with Grade One Saintwill. You should look further. Don’t compare yourself with them. Treat them like ants.”

Who knew how Que, Lan Ying, and the others would think when they heard this?

Wargod Bloodximius said: ” Your physical body is strong but you have no idea on how to use its powers and protect yourself. What you are facing now is only Supreme Saints like Que, Yan Wushen, and the others. You can still use your physical body to block their attacks and even withstand their attacks.

“If you’re facing a Supreme Saint of Banshi Isshou Realm or Paramount Realm, they can break your body into pieces with a single strike. Don’t you think it’s ridiculous that you can’t resist their attacks even though you have the Five-element Chaotic Neverwither Physique and Demigod-level physique?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “So, the third point to fuse Grade One Saintwill is that I have to condense the Qi in my body and perfectly control my physical body?”

Wargod Bloodximius nodded with satisfaction. He had to admit that Zhang Ruochen had a high comprehension ability.

He stretched out his fourth finger and said, “The fourth point is Saint Soul.

“There are many Scion and Scioness in Celestial Court and Infernal Court. Divinity was born with them and their souls were very powerful. Unfortunately, when your mother gave birth to you, she hadn’t become a God yet. Otherwise, your Saint Soul would be much stronger than it is now.

“The fastest way to improve your Saint Soul is to refine The Stellar Soul of God. It just so happens that there’s a bit left in Sevenstar Imperial Palace. Go find it yourself and use it.

“I’ve said so much, but there’s only one sentence that sums up all. If you want to fuse a Grade One Saintwill, you have to be the strongest in every aspects of Hundred-Shackle Realm. Spiritual power is the key.”

“I understand!” Zhang Ruochen bowed again.

Wargod Bloodximius finally asked, “Why did you pretend to be invaded by inner demons?”

Zhang Ruochen had already thought about how to answer, “Actually, my mind was really invaded by inner demons. It’s just that… I have a treasure on me that helps me keep my last shred of clarity. I can’t reveal that treasure no matter what. There were other gods around, so I naturally couldn’t tell the truth.”

Zhang Ruochen planned to reveal the secret of The Heart of Truth. He couldn’t hide it anymore.

If Wargod Bloodximius also coveted this treasure, Zhang Ruochen could just give it to him to save his own life. Of course, Zhang Ruochen believed in Wargod Bloodximius’s temperament more.

As the most outstanding hero of the last Yuanhui period, he had great luck and countless treasures. How could he steal a treasure from his grandson?

If Wargod Bloodximius didn’t show any interest, Zhang Ruochen could trust him more in the future. He could truly see him as his backer in Infernal Court.

Something unexpected happened..

Wargod Bloodximius said, “Since you can’t reveal it, you don’t have to say anything. Hide your secret. Next, is the second matter. Do you understand the meaning behind Fukurokuju’s marriage to you and Luo Sha?”

“I do! It’s to help me gain a foothold in the Infernal Court world,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Wargod Bloodximius said, “Actually, there’s a hidden meaning. It’s to keep you in Infernal Court forever. The deeper your connection with Infernal Court is, the harder it will be for you to leave in the future. You are a person who values relationships. Only relations can become your bond.”

“I. . .” Zhang Ruochen’s face changed, and his eyes became serious.

“You don’t have to deny it. Even if you really want to leave in the future, you will still be my grandson and a disciple of Xue Jue family. However, I’m afraid that many things will not be up to you now. At the moment, I’m standing on the side of Infernal Court. Of course, I hope that you’ll stay and do something. Thus, you have to be mentally prepared.”
