# Chapter 2178: Cutting Off Paradise Realm's Generation

(Realizing I made a mistake, I actually updated this chapter into "The Legend of the Heavenly Emperor"!)

...

Under the impact of powerful forces, the entire sea realm world boiled over, with spatial cracks appearing everywhere. The scene was terrifying, as if it were about to collapse.

"Attack together! We must not let Zhang Ruochen escape!" Tian Ling shouted loudly.

As he spoke, he extended a hand, and surging blood energy emerged, condensing into an extremely eerie blood light. Dozens of sacred dao rules were contained within it, possessing astonishing destructive power.

As a powerhouse of the Blood Battle Divine Temple, Tian Ling cultivated the "Blood Martial Battle Diagram," which was famous on the "Supreme Divine Art Skill Ranking." Having once cultivated to the Great Saint Realm, he could effortlessly wield all kinds of profound and powerful sacred arts.

Behind Tian Ling stood seventeen figures, all of them Saint King Ninth Heaven Realm experts from the Blood Battle Divine Temple. The aura erupting from their bodies was like seventeen sacred mountains, each breathing like a dragon and exhaling like a tsunami.

Zhang Ruochen had opposed the Blood Battle Divine Temple time and again, and in the Truth Heaven Domain, he had even humiliated Jia Tianxia.

To deal with him, the Blood Battle Divine Temple had dispatched all its top experts this time, determined to make Zhang Ruochen suffer eternal damnation, annihilating both his divine form and soul.

At this moment, the seventeen Saint King Ninth Heaven Realm cultivators attacked together with Tian Ling. Some unleashed powerful sacred arts, transforming into pillars of light and lightning. Others sacrificed Great Saint ancient artifacts, erupting with powerful forces containing the aura of Great Saints.

Each one exerted their full strength, holding nothing back.

Sacred qi circulated, sacred dao rules flew everywhere, and the entire Ziwei Palace trembled violently. This space seemed as if it would collapse under the pressure of the power erupting from their bodies.

...

On the other side, ten Angel Clan experts wearing sacred robes each held a staff, their eyes closed and hands gripping the staves tightly.

From the staves, blood-red light threads shot out, intertwining together, combining their powers to form an extremely profound battle formation.

Hundreds of millions of sacred dao rules intertwined, condensing into a divine shadow a thousand zhang tall.

The divine shadow grasped a dark red divine spear, swung it in an arc, revealing unparalleled sharpness. A force capable of tearing apart an Indestructible Realm Great Saint rushed into the world within Yin Yuanchen's palm.

These ten Angel Clan experts came from the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple, being Blood-Robed Angels carefully cultivated by the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple.

The Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple was an extremely ancient divine temple in Paradise Realm, ranking within the top five.

It was rumored that Jia Tianxia had once cultivated at the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple, and after becoming a god, he broke away and established the Blood Battle Divine Temple.

Because of this, the relationship between the Blood Battle Divine Temple and the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple was very close.

In fact, the "Blood Martial Battle Diagram" originated from the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple. Legend had it that it was created by the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple's ancestor, "Cang Tian," and was infinitely profound and extremely domineering.

Meanwhile, other experts also made their moves—the Radiant Divine Temple, the Titan Divine Temple, the Elf Divine Temple... none were left out.

"Boom, rumble."

Each force was wildly violent.

If these forces were unleashed into a ruin realm, they would be enough to destroy the world.

Yao Tian Gongzi's eyes flashed with a fierce light. He waved his hand and sent a black-and-white formation diagram into the sea realm world.

Vast supreme yin force and supreme yang force surged from Yao Tian Gongzi's body, continuously pouring into the formation diagram.

Instantly, the formation diagram bloomed with black-and-white sacred light, transforming into an enormous yin-yang taiji formation seal, with eight trigrams arranged around it, sealing heaven and earth.

Yao Tian Gongzi possessed astonishing talent. Not only did he cultivate both supreme yin and supreme yang, but he was also a formation prodigy, having become a Formation Earth Master early on.

Compared to others, Yao Tian Gongzi actually wanted to kill Zhang Ruochen even more. That way, the obstacle to obtaining the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden would be removed.

Zhang Ruochen and A Le stood side by side, looking up at the sky.

The two stood on the sea surface, calmly watching the sacred arts, sacred artifacts, talismans, formations... falling from the sky like dazzling suns, plummeting toward them at high speed.

The entire world grew increasingly oppressive.

The scene was like the end of days approaching.

"Space True Domain."

"Truth Realm Form."

Beneath Zhang Ruochen's feet, the water of the entire sea surged violently.

He stood atop a ten-thousand-zhang giant wave, his hands spread wide. Five Elements Chaos Light illuminated heaven and earth, and Five Elements Chaos Qi filled the sea. Brilliant stars appeared within the Five Elements Chaos Qi, transforming the sea surface into a starry sky.

A boundless, infinite starry sky.

"Boom, rumble."

When the two forces collided, a terrifying impact was generated, making the entire sea seem about to flip over.

Yin Yuanchen's arm trembled violently, with cracks appearing all over it, and a large amount of sacred blood flowed out.

With so many experts attacking together, the power was too great.

Even with his cultivation, it was difficult to withstand.

Fortunately, he was strong enough to hold on. If it were another Saint King, they would probably have been crushed to dust long ago.

Yin Yuanchen's eyes turned red as he endured the pain with all his might. As long as he could kill Zhang Ruochen, this bit of pain meant nothing.

Too many experts from Paradise Realm had made their moves. Even though Zhang Ruochen's cultivation had reached Great Perfection, his Space True Domain and Truth Realm Form were still pierced through. He couldn't completely block them, and some attack power landed on the two of them.

After finally blocking the first wave of attacks, taking advantage of the brief gap, Zhang Ruochen took out the "Space-Time Secret Scripture," sat cross-legged, and began flipping through its pages like a scholar.

With each page turned, the space where the sea realm world was located trembled once.

At the same time, another blood mark would appear on Yin Yuanchen's arm, and even the sound of bones breaking could be heard.

"A Le, get ready."

After saying this lightly, Zhang Ruochen's two fingers flipped open the page recording "Space Tide," and fanned the page once.

"Boom."

The spatial power originally unleashed by Zhang Ruochen, after being amplified by the "Space-Time Secret Scripture," became incredibly terrifying. The space tide churned the sea realm world upside down, creating dense spatial cracks and spatial collapses, all rushing in one direction simultaneously.

A Le stood beside Zhang Ruochen, standing straight, holding his sword with both hands, his eyes closed, capturing all kinds of fluctuations in this world.

At a certain moment, he suddenly opened his eyes. His entire aura became sharp and fierce. He shot into the sky, and the iron sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning.

"Shua—"

This sword was like a startled swan, with no return, like a meteor streaking across the sky.

The world membrane of the sea realm world was torn open, creating a gap.

"Not good."

Yin Yuanchen's expression changed dramatically.

Originally, the world membrane of the sea realm world was extremely firm and solid, difficult even for Great Saints to break. However, due to the impact of the space tide, some subtle fragile areas had appeared.

The moment the fragile area appeared, A Le seized the opportunity and pierced through it with a single sword strike.

"Shua."

Zhang Ruochen and A Le cooperated with perfect tacit understanding, instantly flashing out through the torn gap.

The experts of the Paradise Realm faction reacted extremely quickly, immediately dispersing to occupy all directions, surrounding Zhang Ruochen and A Le in the middle.

Even though they had already witnessed Zhang Ruochen's power, they were not afraid. The Paradise Realm faction was well-prepared and was not afraid of Zhang Ruochen.

The difference was only how great a price they would have to pay.

One-on-one, indeed, no one was Zhang Ruochen's match.

But what about one against ten, one against a hundred, or one against a thousand?

Challenging Paradise Realm, not to mention one Zhang Ruochen, even ten would die.

"Where is the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden? Where is Chi Kongle?"

Zhang Ruochen looked around, killing intent spreading everywhere, like the God of Death descending to the mortal world.

Wherever his gaze fell, no one dared to meet his eyes.

With so many experts from the Paradise Realm faction appearing in Ziwei Palace, Zhang Ruochen had a bad feeling. His heart was somewhat unsettled.

At this moment, whoever blocked him, he would kill gods and buddhas alike.

"They have naturally been suppressed. If you obediently surrender, this king can immediately let you see them." Bing Tong, the leader of the Soul Realm, laughed.

Bing Tong's words actually made Zhang Ruochen breathe a sigh of relief.

If the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden and Chi Kongle had really been captured by them, they would certainly have been brought before him by now to threaten him.

Yao Tian Gongzi said in a deep voice, "Zhang Ruochen, you are truly foolish. A mere Saint King dares to offend so many great worlds wantonly. You are digging your own grave. No one can protect you."

Zhang Ruochen shifted his gaze, locking onto Yao Tian Gongzi. A cold light flashed in his eyes. "Originally, considering you are a descendant of the Nine Radiance Divine Lord, I kept giving you chances, wanting to let you off. But you chose to take sides and walk together with Paradise Realm. Do you know this is a path to death?"

"Zhang Ruochen, you are too arrogant. Do you really think you are invincible under heaven? This young master originally did not want to interfere, but you should not have come to meddle in this young master's affairs. The Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden is destined to marry this young master. It's just a pity that you will not live to see that day." Yao Tian Gongzi laughed.

If it weren't for Zhang Ruochen becoming an obstacle to his obtaining the Nine Heavens Mysterious Maiden, Yao Tian Gongzi really wouldn't have wanted to get involved in this matter.

After all, Tianquan Great World had always been relatively neutral, with no particular ties to Paradise Realm.

Yao Tian Gongzi's intervention this time could already be considered a violation of Tianquan Great World's main will.

A Le looked around, without any superfluous words, and said, "How do we kill?"

Zhang Ruochen said, "Since they've come, let none of them leave. Kill off the Saint King realm experts of the Paradise Realm faction until their generation is cut off."

"Then let's kill through them."

A Le's body emitted a monstrous killing intent, almost condensing into substance.

Behind him, that pair of eyes became increasingly solid and real. Everyone who was gazed upon by them felt a chill run down their spine, as if being stared at by the God of Death.

"Puchi."

Before the cultivators of the Paradise Realm faction could react, a Nine-Step Saint King was pierced through the brow by A Le's sword. His head exploded, and his sacred soul was utterly destroyed.

By the time they reacted, a second Nine-Step Saint King had already been decapitated by A Le's sword.

The killing intent contained in the sword severed all life qi within his body, turning him into a dead shell. Even with the powerful vitality of a Nine-Step Saint King, he could not regenerate his head.

Helian Wusheng's heart trembled. He was also an assassin, and his fame had been established much earlier than A Le's. However, the speed A Le had just displayed, the killing intent he released, and the sword technique he executed all made him feel wary.

He now finally understood why the Heavenly Kill Organization had listed A Le as a must-kill target.

This kid was indeed very terrifying. His growth rate was beyond imagination. If not stopped, he might become a fearsome god of slaughter in the near future.

When that time came, A Le would undoubtedly become a major threat to the Heavenly Kill Organization.

"The only ones who will die in Ziwei Palace today are the two of you."

Tian Ling's eyes were cold. He decisively made his move and attacked.

He had already received news that the Blood Battle Divine Temple's founder, Jia Tianxia, had suffered a great loss because of Zhang Ruochen. With so many old and new grievances, it was time to settle them.

Tian Ling had once cultivated to the Indestructible Realm peak, and he was not a weak Indestructible Great Saint. Therefore, even after becoming a "Realm Faller," his strength was still formidable. He was not at all afraid of Zhang Ruochen.

Yin Yuanchen's arm injury healed quickly. His long hair flew, and his aura rose step by step. A large amount of Ancient Extinction Death Force emanated from his body. "Zhang Ruochen, besides Yan Wushen, there is still me below the Great Saint realm."

He had waited for too long. Finally, he had the chance to completely change his fate. No matter what, Zhang Ruochen had to die. It would be best if he could kill him with his own hands.

An extremely tall figure walked out from behind Yin Yuanchen. His skin was grayish-white, his eyes hollow and lifeless, and his body emitted an extremely dense death qi. His divine power was also vast and boundless. It was clearly a divine corpse.

Anyone could see that this figure's appearance was very similar to Yin Yuanchen's, as if they were cast from the same mold.

Seeing this figure, Zhang Ruochen immediately guessed its identity. If not mistaken, it should be Yin Yuanchen's father.

He never expected that Yin Yuanchen would not only use his father's divine blood to feed Gu insects but also manipulate his divine corpse with sinister methods. This was simply insane.

No matter how calm Zhang Ruochen's state of mind was, seeing this situation, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. He couldn't imagine how twisted Yin Yuanchen's psychology had become.

"What are you waiting for? Suppress and kill the two of them."

Tian Ling shouted loudly. The six blood wings behind him spread open, like six blood clouds that could cover the sky and blot out the sun.

One could see that on these six blood wings, a massive amount of sacred dao rules flowed. The rules and sacred qi of heaven and earth were completely mobilized.

A vast sacred might emanated from Tian Ling's body, capable of shaking the nine heavens and shaking the underworld. Tian Ling seemed to become the only existence in this world.

"Boom."

Zhang Ruochen flipped his hand and slapped down. The phantom of a divine dragon and ancient elephant appeared, dispersing the sacred might on Tian Ling's body and slamming him heavily to the ground.

With just one strike, he was severely injured, spitting blood, and his sacred body nearly shattered.

"How is this possible... I was once a Great Saint..." Tian Ling's face was full of shock.

"Even if you hadn't fallen from your realm, I would still kill you."

Zhang Ruochen stepped down. Tian Ling's head exploded, turning into bloody mud, like a balloon being stomped on.

The next moment, Zhang Ruochen's gaze turned to the depths of Ziwei Palace. He released his spiritual power and perceived the fluctuations of battle. He was about to rush over immediately.

"Zhang Ruochen, you can't leave. Stay here."

In front of him, six figures suddenly grew larger, each reaching a hundred zhang in height. They extended six sky-covering giant hands and simultaneously slapped toward Zhang Ruochen.

The Titan Clan was a super clan in Paradise Realm, able to rank in the top ten. The Titan Divine Temple they established also possessed astonishing heritage.

The six who made their move were the Titan Six Divine Generals, carefully cultivated by the Titan Divine Temple. Each was very powerful, and when they joined forces, they were unmatched.

On the other side, nine cultivators who looked like humans acted together, using divine blood to depict a profound talisman.

Once the talisman was formed, heaven and earth changed color. A destructive aura spread out.

They came from the Heavenly Talisman Divine Temple, a fearsome divine temple famous for the talisman path. They mastered the most profound talisman inheritance and could use talismans to suppress the world.

The Twelve Judgment Envoys of the Radiant Divine Temple also regrouped, releasing vast radiant sacred power, doing their utmost to activate the Twelve Judgment Swords. Over a million supreme inscription runes emerged, and the supreme power surged endlessly.

As the ruling world of the Western Universe, Paradise Realm had seized a large amount of cultivation resources from the Heavenly Court over the past hundred thousand years. It could be said that experts emerged in large numbers.

Each divine temple and each clan had cultivated many geniuses, and quite a few had the potential to become gods. Other great worlds simply couldn't compare.

"Those who block me will die."

Facing the overwhelming attacks coming from all directions, Zhang Ruochen extended his right hand above his head. Sword dao rules and five elements rules all emerged, combining with his sword intent and five elements chaos qi to condense five sacred swords of different colors. Each sacred sword was a hundred zhang long, blooming with unparalleled sharpness, their powers interconnected, forming a seamless whole.

"Swish."

The five sacred swords slashed out simultaneously. The sword qi reached the heavens, as if it would cut down the stars in the sky.

At the same time, A Le executed a ghost-like movement technique, flashing to the side and locking onto Helian Wusheng of the Heavenly Kill Organization. Because he saw that Helian Wusheng had been restless, moving along the edge of the battlefield, seemingly wanting to use some kind of killing power to ambush Zhang Ruochen.

"I didn't come looking for you, but you deliver yourself to my door."

Helian Wusheng snorted lightly, executing the Shadow Path. His figure appeared and disappeared, elusive.

At the same time, he released four Death Envoys, each reaching the Nine-Step Saint King realm. They cooperated with each other, surrounding and killing A Le.

If he could personally kill A Le, he would undoubtedly render great service, and the Heavenly Kill Organization would surely give him a huge reward.

"Bang."

The divine corpse controlled by Yin Yuanchen had its divine power shattered. It rapidly retreated backward, crashing into a pavilion.

Fortunately, Ziwei Palace had many arrangements and was steeped in divine power. All the buildings within had become extremely firm and solid and would not be easily damaged.

The sword formation composed of the Twelve Judgment Swords instantly collapsed. Sword qi scattered everywhere, instead injuring the experts of the Paradise Realm faction.

The bodies of the Titan Six Divine Generals were all cut in half at the waist. Blood columns sprayed from within their bodies. Even though their bodies were engraved with powerful divine patterns, they still couldn't withstand Zhang Ruochen's sword.

In Ziwei Palace, a torrential rain of blood fell.

As for the talisman depicted by the nine experts of the Heavenly Talisman Divine Temple, it also couldn't withstand the attack of the sacred sword and was destroyed in an instant.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Another three experts were directly hit by the sharp sword qi. Their bodies exploded on the spot, dying violent deaths.

...

In the blink of an eye, more than ten experts of the Paradise Realm faction had been lost, with even more injured.

"Is he really still a Saint King? How can he be so powerful? He is simply invincible."

The experts of the Paradise Realm faction all felt their hearts tremble.

"Ah..."

Suddenly, a miserable scream rang out.

The experts of the Paradise Realm faction couldn't help but turn their heads, only to see a extremely shocking scene.

A Le held his iron sword, having cut off Helian Wusheng's arms. Now, he was stabbing his sword into Helian Wusheng's brow.

The mask Helian Wusheng wore had long shattered, revealing a somewhat pale face, his eyes filled with despair and unwillingness.

Beside him, all four of Helian Wusheng's Death Envoys had been killed, their sacred blood flowing all over the ground.

Seeing this scene, many couldn't help but draw in a breath of cold air. They all knew very well how powerful Helian Wusheng was. They never expected that he would be killed so easily.

One must know that assassins not only had astonishing attack power but were also very skilled at preserving their lives, so that after assassinating their target, they could retreat smoothly.
