Zhang Ruochen came to Sword Saint Xuanji's dead body and took out the Ruyi Treasure Bottle . He then absorbed Half-Saint Xin Feng's saint soul and blood Qi into the bottle .
Half saint's saint soul and blood could be used to form Half-Saint Light . It was considered the relic of a deceased Half-Saint and was definitely an important treasure .
It could be absorbed and definitely should not be wasted .
However, Half-Saint Xin Lei had been engulfed by a spatial crack and entered the Void Space, not leaving any saint's soul behind .
Zhang Ruochen held back the bottle and turned towards Feng Han .
Abyss Ancient Sword was a sensitive sword and could sense Zhang Ruochen's anger . It shivered lightly and the sound could be heard . ( Boxno vel . co m )
Half-Saint Taixi and Half-Saint Xin Yu gathered behind Feng Han . Three of them stayed 100 metres away from each other in a triangular formation .
They emitted Holy Qi and it combined perfectly to form a strong defense . If Zhang Ruochen wanted to attack any of them, the other two could counter-attack immediately .
Half-Saint Taixi was worried and said, “My Prince, the battle just now caused an uproar amongst the crowd and it might trigger the people in Yin and Yang Sect . I think we should bring Taotian Sword back first to avoid any accidents . ”
Feng Han analyzed the situation carefully . His strength should be able to outmatch Zhang Ruochen, but if he wanted to kill him or take him back alive, it would still be very difficult .
If he got trapped by Zhang Ruochen and couldn't leave, it would be bad for him when people of Yin and Yang Sect came .
After hearing Half-Saint Taixi's words, Feng Han thought for a while and nodded . He said, “Give me the Taotian sword, I will bring it back and pass it to Father myself . ”
Half-Saint Taixi gave it to him and glanced at Half-Saint Xin Yu, “Xin Yu, cover the Prince, I will take care of this guy . ”
“Be careful, the power of space that he uses is strangely powerful . ” Half-Saint Xin Yu said .
Half-Saint Taixi laughed and said, “I have reached Half-Saint Level 2 . Even if I can't beat him, I will still be able to retreat safely . ”
The difference between a Level 1 and Level 2 Half-Saint was like the difference between a monk of Ninth Change and Level 1 Half-Saint; it was worlds apart . Half-Saints Xin Feng, Xin Lei, Xin Yun and Xin Yu would have to work together in order to fight against Half-Saint Taixi .
Of course, the strength of a Half-Saint might differ a lot but there were many ways to retreat . The speed of every Half-Saint wasn't very different . So, even if a Half-Saint's strength was weaker than another Half-Saint, he might still be able to run away as long as he didn't get trapped in the opponent's Saint Soul Territory .
It was not easy to kill a half-saint .
But Zhang Ruochen was a Half-Saint killer . He could manipulate time and space within a certain distance . It was hard for even a half-saint to run away .
“Feng Han, you are a Half-Saint . You don't even dare to fight and you're ready to run away?”
Zhang Ruochen wanted to stop them before they ran away with the Taotian Sword .
“World Locking Formation!”
Half-Saint Taixi stood behind Feng Han and took out a crimson ancient jade disc that was one meter in diameter . He blasted it upwards into the sky . It stopped right above Zhang Ruochen .
Battle formation inscriptions appeared on the disc and spread quickly .
Eighteen long flame pillars flew out from the disc and formed a chain connecting to the ground, locking Zhang Ruochen in the battle formation .
Zhang Ruochen used his spatial manipulation skill and tried to do another spatial move . He wanted to use the skill to escape from the battle formation .
However, he appeared at the edge of the formation and was nearly hit by the flaming pillars .
Waves of intense heat could be felt .
Even in this dire situation, Zhang Ruochen reacted very quickly and used his sword to hold the pillar . The fire pillar clashed with the sword .
Zhang Ruochen was thrown back to the middle of the formation .
The power of the battle formation was too strong and scary . The heat the fire pillar created even caused the Abyss Ancient Sword to turn red, with hot sparks flying off .
You can imagine that, if the chains hit him, even if he was a Half-Saint, he would definitely be severely hurt .
Half-Saint Taixi stood outside the formation and laughed . “Zhang Ruochen, what's the point of having the power of space? The power of the formation can outmatch it in certain circumstances . ”
“World locking formation is a Sixth Grade Battle Formation, it is very complicated . Even a level 3 half-saint needs to take at least one day to get out of it . It seems like your power over spatial manipulation is very basic; how could you ever overcome this?”
In order to use a Sixth Grade Battle Formation, the difficulty was almost like building a city, a large and difficult process .
Even a master of a Sixth Grade Battle Formation, together with more than 10 assistants working together, needed at least a month to complete one Sixth Grade Battle Formation .
If you wanted to transform the formation into a saint weapon, it would be even harder .
You not only had to find suitable precious materials, but also needed a lot of time to engrave the inscriptions onto it .
A master also required at least 3 years to build one saint weapon .
However, the power of the formation created would also largely decrease and wasn't comparable to a Sixth Grade Defender Formation and a Sixth Grade Guardian Formation .
The only benefit of it was that one could easily use the formation at any time .
A sacred weapon as such was a hundred times more precious than a normal engraved weapon .
Zhang Ruochen didn't change his expression and said, “World locking formation is very strong, but if you intend to trap me inside, it might not be so easy . ”
“Oh yeah? I want to see how you could overcome it,” Half-Saint Taixi sneered, looking relaxed .
If a fish-dragon monk could easily break the formation, then would it be still considered a Sixth Grade Battle Formation?
“It is very difficult to break the formation from the inside, but how about from the outside?” Zhang Ruochen said .
Half-Saint Taixi said, “Good idea, but how do you come out first?”
“If I can, do I still need to break the formation?”
Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and extended his fingers to form a sword sign . A strong sword intent emitted from his body and blasted into the sky . The blast effect detonated the formation, creating shockwaves to the surroundings .
World locking formation could lock the monks inside but not sword intent that had no form .
Zhang Ruochen had already achieved Human Sword level – the sword and him as one . Thus, the sword intent he conjured was extremely powerful .
All the trees and flowers that had been casted with his sword intent were lit up, shaking . The pointy part of the leaves pointed at the battle formation, all as sharp as the blade of a sword .
Half-Saint Taixi looked around, his expression changed, “Once sword intent is conjured, everything will become sword . This human sword level, how… How is this possible? That should be a sword saint's level already . ”
If it wasn't, Half-Saint Taixi should be able to sense clearly where the spirit intent had come from, but it was from him .
During the Sword Technique Conference, he used a single hair to kill Half-Saint Xuanlong . This proved that his sword skill was really at a very high level .
Half-Saint Taixi strength was even lower than Half-Saint Xuanlong .
Even if Taixi had the world locking formation skill, Zhang Ruochen wasn't afraid of him .
Taixi felt something wasn't right and didn't wait any longer . He controlled the battle formation and started attacking at the fastest speed to kill Zhang Ruochen .
He pushed his hands forward .
Holy Qi came from his palms and flew towards the ancient jade disc .
The disc turned immediately and a fire pillar formed and attacked Zhang Ruochen .
“Bomb!”
It was just a single attack and a large hole formed in middle of the battle formation, melting the surrounding soil and rocks into volcano larvae .
Luckily, Zhang Ruochen managed to dodge the attack . If not he wouldn't have been able to defend himself from the attack with his own strength .
The ancient jade disc turned again and was ready for a second attack .
Zhang Ruochen squinted his eyes sternly and said, “Imperial sword!”
All the leaves of the trees and flowers flew upwards into the sky and formed black dots all around . All the dots combined and formed a large grey cloud that covered even the moon .
The next moment, a deafening groan could be heard from the sky .
The leaves then poured on Half-Saint Taixi and his battle formation . The speed was extremely fast and, with the help of sword intent, it is very deadly .
A single leaf could cut more than a meter into the ground .
Half-Saint Taixi's strength was strong enough and the battle formation's defense wasn't weak either . All the leaves were disintegrated into powder before they even got close to him .
“Your sword intent is strong but you can't kill a Half-Saint with just leaves!” Half-Saint Taixi shouted .
Zhang Ruochen continued to emit the sword intent and said, “You might not be as strong as you think, and the strength of a leaf might not be as weak as you think . ”
As time passed, Half-Saint Taixi defenses were getting more pressurized . The leaves finally broke his defense and fell onto him . They cut through his skin and blood vessels .
A moment later, world locking formation created a loud explosion and it was destroyed by the leaves from the outside .
With a loud bang, the ancient jade disc fell onto the ground .
