God Emperor Chapter 2258 - Huang Tian

Chapter 2258: Huang Tian

The surrounding of Vastsea Manor had been completely restored and had become more beautiful than before. There were many pavilions scattered everywhere, lakes were surrounding them, bridges with white mist and the array formation intertwined. It was like sacred ground for the fairies.

It was a piece of cake for a High-Saint Array Master to change the landscape, environment, and rivers of a planet. Let alone a manor.

Zhou Zhen did not feel any sense of accomplishment. Instead, he felt very sullen.

How could the Formation Sect’s leader of this generation, a talented High-Saint Array Master, be reduced to Zhang Ruochen’s gardener?

At that moment, Zhang Ruochen stood at the edge of the opened bronze coffin within the coverage of the Sundial. He used his spiritual power to carefully observe the half of the divine corpse in the coffin.

The s.p.a.ce inside the coffin was huge.

The half of the divine corpse was more than 2,000 miles long. It looked like a scorpion’s tail and was covered with huge cyan spikes. Although the divine soul had been taken away, there were still remnants of the divine soul. It condensed into soul fog floating around the divine corpse.

Zhou Zhen, Liao Xi, Moyin, Xue Chen, and Xue Ningxiao stood at the side, and they all focused on the divine corpse.

Xue Chen said, “The lingering divine soul fog is the main ingredient for refining the Divine Soul Elixir. It’s extremely precious.”

The Divine Soul Elixir was a king-grade elixir that could increase the strength of spiritual power.

From this, one could imagine the value of the divine soul fog.

Above that, there was the Divine Soul Elixir.

However, for the Divine Soul Elixir to reach emperor-grade, it had to be refined using the divine soul itself.

Moyin’s graceful body walked to Zhang Ruochen’s side and said, “Master, if you give this half of divine corpse to me, I’m confident that I’ll reach the Bans.h.i.+ Isshou Realm within a hundred years. I might even reach the Paramount Realm.”

She extended her finger. Roots as thin as hair flew out from her fingertip and extended into the coffin.

“Don’t blame me for not reminding you,” Zhang Ruochen said, “This half of the divine corpse is poisonous. You might not be able to withstand it.”

Moyin’s expression changed slightly and she quickly retracted her silver roots.

The Saint Devourer was not afraid of any poison. However, no living creature would dare to try the poison in a G.o.d. Even a G.o.d would have to be careful.

Zhou Zhen, Lian Xi, Xue Chen, and Xue Ningxiao could not help but take a few steps back after hearing what Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen summoned a G.o.d-eater Bug the size of a fingernail and threw it into the coffin.

The G.o.d-eater Bug was a creature born from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree. It could devour everything in the world. In terms of its resistance to poison, it was even stronger than the Saint Devourer.

However, the G.o.d-eater Bug stopped moving after it flew to the divine corpse and it took only a dozen bites. The blue flames on its body extinguished along with its lifeforce.

“What a terrifying poison.”

The cultivators’ expressions became even more solemn.

Zhang Ruochen frowned deeply. He thought and walked toward the wind pavilion. The divine corpse was left there and he did not care about it anymore.

Xue Ningxiao said, “Cousin, you don’t have to be disappointed. Although the divine corpse contains poison, its value has been greatly reduced. However, the poison produced by G.o.d has great lethality. If properly refined, it can be used to poison a Supreme Saint. Many cultivators would rush to buy such a poison.”

“It’s not that simple,” said Zhang Ruochen.

He shook his head and continued, “Just because you can poison a Supreme Saint doesn’t mean the Supreme Saint is poisoned.”

“Huh?”

Xue Ningxiao was stunned. She couldn’t understand what Zhang Ruochen had said.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Poisoning is the simplest way to kill someone. However, killing a Supreme Saint is as difficult as ascending to heaven.”

“A Supreme Saint won’t stand still and let you poison him. If he senses something, he’ll fly dozens of miles away. Unless the poison you refine can cover hundreds of miles in an instant.”

“However, a Supreme Saint must have some means of defense. It will not be difficult for him to withstand the poison for a short while. By then, he will have escaped the range of the poison.”

“If you want to poison a Supreme Saint, you have to make him swallow the poison or allow the poison to seep into his body directly. If you can do that, why do you need to use poison? Wouldn’t it be better to kill him with a sword?”

These poisons were of great value and had many uses. However, their value was far less than the price of 180,000 G.o.dstones.

Zhang Ruochen was not willing to give up. He walked to the bronze coffin again and summoned more than 100 G.o.d-eater Bugs. He put them in at the same time.

Whish

The G.o.d-eater Bugs flew to the divine corpse and began to devour it.

Half of the G.o.d-eater Bugs died in a breath’s time.

After 10 breaths, there were only 25 G.o.d-eater Bugs left.

After an hour, there were only nine G.o.d-eater Bugs left.

The nine that were still alive suddenly became motionless and stiff. However, the blue flames on their bodies did not go out. Although their lifeforce was weak, they did not disappear.

It was as if… They had fallen into a deep sleep.

A smile appeared on Zhang Ruochen’s face, and he said to himself, “This is great! The devouring ability of the G.o.d-eater Bugs was indeed very strong. The nine that survived must be consuming the toxins in their bodies and the flesh of the divine corpse. When they wake up, will there be a surprise?”

Zhang Ruochen’s greatest desire was to turn the G.o.d-eater Bugs into poisonous bugs that could devour everything. Their lethality would become even greater.

Although the flames on the G.o.d-eater Bug were powerful, the threat it could pose to a Supreme Saint with a Neverwither physique would be greatly reduced. However, a Supreme Saint of Thousand-Koan Realm, Bans.h.i.+ Isshou Realm, or even Paramount Realm would suffer if hit by a divine-grade poison.

Only by using the poisoned G.o.d-eater Bug could it pose a threat to a Supreme Saint.

When the G.o.d-eater Bug woke up and if it worked, then we could expand the scale of cultivating poisonous bugs.

Xue Chen and Xue Ningxiao entered the area covered by the Sundial to cultivate. Zhang Ruochen took out an exquisite palace the size of a palm and waved his hand.

The palace grew bigger and bigger until it was more than 2,100 meters tall. Then it stopped.

It was the Sevenstar Imperial Palace.

When WarG.o.d Bloodximius was in the Supreme Saint Realm, he used a lot of treasures to refine the palace. He was just one step away from transforming it into a fane. The doors, walls, pillars, and beams of the palace were all meticulously carved. The lines were filled with beauty.

Every brick and tile consisted of divinity.

There were both breathtakingly detailed patterns and majestic auras. Even the will of the WarG.o.d Bloodximius seemed to be integrated into it. Which makes Zhou Zhen, Lian Xi, and Moyin feel suffocated.

“Every inch of the floor is engraved with Supreme Saint inscriptions. Every pillar is made of divine material. Every picture and text seems to contain some kind of profound path. “Is this… Is this a fane of a G.o.d?” Zhou Zhen said in a trembling voice.

It was not that he had not seen the world, but such a fane was comparable to the places where some G.o.ds lived. How could it be in Zhang Ruochen’s hands?

“Come with me.”

Zhang Ruochen took the lead to step on the stairs and walk toward the palace gate of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace.

Zhou Zhen did not know what Zhang Ruochen wanted to do, but he did not dare to go against his will. He had no choice but to follow him.

Previously, Supreme Saint Qingsheng had told him that the Sevenstar Imperial Palace had the records of WarG.o.d Bloodximius’s cultivation experience, which might help him comprehend a higher level of saintwill.

When they came to the entrance of the palace, they saw a creature that looked like a lion and a dog lying on the ground. Its body was more than six meters long, and it had long blood-red hair.

It opened its sleepy eyes and saw Zhang Ruochen. Then, it transmitted a telepathic consciousness towards him. It said, “I know you. Zhang Ruochen, the grandson of the WarG.o.d Bloodximius. I am Huang Tian, the spiritual guardian of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. When you defeat me, then you shall be my master.”

‘Why do all the cats and dogs address themselves as “me”? They can be a couple with Blackie. No, wait. What’s his name? Huang Tian?’ Zhang Ruochen thought.

Zhang Ruochen was stunned for a moment. He carefully looked at the big dog lying on the ground. He thought to himself that only WarG.o.d Bloodximius would dare to name his pet, Huang Tian.

“May I ask what realm your cultivation has reached?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Huang Tian said, “My cultivation is equivalent to that of a Supreme Saint in the Thousand-Koan Realm. You are just a Supreme Saint in the Neverwilt Realm and you are still far from it.”

The so-called spiritual guardian of the palace was the vessel spirit of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace.

The Blood Dripper had already become a Supreme Artifact, yet the vessel spirit had not reached the Supreme Saint realm. The vessel spirit of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace had reached the Thousand-Koan Realm. This showed the defensive power of the Sevenstar Imperial Palace. If it was fully activated, it might be able to withstand the attack of the Supreme Saint of the Bans.h.i.+ Isshou Realm realm, as Supreme Saint Qingsheng had said.

Of course, it was not a big deal that the dog Huang Tian had cultivated for more than 100,000 years to reach the Thousand-Koan Realm.

Zhou Zhen, who was following behind Zhang Ruochen, felt a chill run down his spine.

‘It turned out that Zhang Ruochen was the grandson of the WarG.o.d Bloodximius. No wonder he could make a name for himself in the Infernal Court,’ Zhou Zhen thought.

WarG.o.d Bloodximius’s name also had a great deterrent effect in all realms of Celestial Court.

Zhou Zhen looked at the spiritual guardian lying on the ground. He was terrified. He quickly cupped his hands and bowed deeply. He thought to himself, ‘Zhang Ruochen has many powerful people around him. In Infernal Court, he has a high status. It seems that there’s no hope for me to escape.’

Zhang Ruochen did not challenge the spiritual guardian immediately. Instead, he stepped into the Sevenstar Imperial Palace.

The interior of the palace was very big. It was divided into seven isolated halls. A hall that specialized in collecting all kinds of books, a hall that specialized in refining weapons, a hall that was used for cultivating saint techniques…

What surprised Zhang Ruochen was that there was a harem. It used to be a place where women lived and cultivated. The decorations and layout were out of place. It was full of colorful flowers and strange plants. There was also a saint spring that formed a lake.

Zhou Zhen thought to himself, ‘This harem is huge! I didn’t expect that even the world-famous WarG.o.d Bloodximius couldn’t resist the beauties.’

Zhang Ruochen was not surprised. WarG.o.d Bloodximius’s ident.i.ty was special. Even if WarG.o.d Bloodximius did not want to marry, there must be countless forces that wanted to present their favored daughter under their banner to him.

He did not want descendants, but the Xue Jue Family needs.

With WarG.o.d Bloodximius’s cultivation and ident.i.ty, there were times when he could not live his own life.

Of course, after cultivating for more than 100,000 years and having fewer than twenty children, he could already be considered a G.o.d of abstinence.

After that, they came to the Hall of Cosmic Words, which collected all kinds of ancient books and scrolls. After using his spiritual power to investigate, he walked to the place where the WarG.o.d Bloodximius had cultivated his experience. He took out a book called The Secrets of Palm Saintwill.

When Zhang Ruochen was about to flip through it, He looked at Zhou Zhen standing next to him. His eyes became serious and he said, “You and Shentu Yunkong were the ones who committed the ma.s.sacre in Syzygy Mansion, right? How many of the great Confucianists in Kunlun have you killed?”

Although Zhou Zhen had guessed that Zhang Ruochen would ask about this, his expression changed drastically. He shook his head hard and said with his trembling lips, “I… I was only in charge of setting up the array… No, I did not partic.i.p.ate in the ma.s.sacre…”

Zhang Ruochen said, “It was you and Shentu Yunkong who sent the spatial coordinates of the Rainbow Pavilion to Infernal Court, right? Who gave you the order?”

If there was no mole, Infernal Court would not have been able to set up the Voidbridge of Chaos directly to Rainbow Pavilion.

Zhang Ruochen had suppressed Zhou Zhen and Shentu Yunkong outside the Rainbow Pavilion. He had also found the seriously injured Sui Han and w.a.n.g s.h.i.+qi from the Exquisite Dimensional Orb on them.

Therefore, Zhou Zhen could not deny it.

Zhang Ruochen said, “Don’t be in a hurry to answer. Think carefully before you say anything. I’ll give you enough time to think. After I finish reading this book, I hope to get a satisfactory answer..”
