Chapter 2670: I, Shu Qianchi, Am Immortal and Indestructible
Among the various divine temples of Paradise Realm, the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple ranked fifth.
Liuliu Great Saint was the number one powerhouse of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple, his name listed on the Red Dust Scroll.
He, along with ten Supreme Realm Great Saints who bore blood-red wings on their backs, released blood-red sacred qi from their wings, creating a vast and boundless sea of blood on the ground beneath them.
"Whoosh!"
A sacred tree, radiant with treasure light, sprouted from the blood sea, growing vigorously, sending out branches and unfurling leaves.
Dense supreme inscription runes flowed across the trunk, branches, and leaves.
This was the Que Tian Treasure Tree, a supreme sacred artifact refined from a divine tree.
Under the control of the eleven Supreme Realm Great Saints, the Que Tian Treasure Tree flew into the sky, charging into the rolling dark clouds.
"Rustle, rustle!"
The trunk shook, and the power of the supreme being transformed into a fierce gale, tearing the dark clouds apart.
Beyond the sky, the Star Soul Divine Throne, composed of fifteen stars, reappeared. Divine light cascaded down from the throne, falling into the footprint-shaped crater and onto the Judgment Divine Envoy.
The Judgment Divine Envoy's body, crushed and bloody from the stomp, had its wounds rapidly healing, bones reconnecting. Two solid pillars of divine qi materialized in his eyes, shooting from the bottom of the pit into the sky beyond.
He flew out of the footprint crater, no longer bearing any trace of his handsome demeanor or gentle grace. His face twisted in fury, he let out a long roar: "Today, this divine envoy will grind your bones to dust, extract your soul, and refine your blood!"
The field of divine might covered the entire island, and every cultivator on it felt as if a heavy mountain had been pressed onto their shoulders.
Zhang Ruochen's gaze locked onto the cultivators of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple. He said coldly, "To think you could break my Dark Cloud Covering Heaven secret art—you're not without skill!"
A Supreme Realm Great Saint from the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple, a secular overlord who had lived for over fourteen thousand years, laughed arrogantly, "If we had no skill, how could we kill you?"
"Seeking death."
A cluster of light spots flew from Zhang Ruochen's hand, moving at incredible speed.
"Be careful!"
Liuliu Great Saint sensed the danger and shouted a warning, swiftly evading with a movement sacred art, not daring to touch the light spots.
"Ah... this is... my dharma body..."
A scream rang out.
That secular overlord, who had lived for over fourteen thousand years, was struck by the light spots, his body riddled with dozens of holes, turned into a sieve.
His protective defenses and powerful supreme dharma body could not block the light spots.
Instead, upon being hit, his dharma body disintegrated, and his sacred soul shattered.
A Supreme Realm Great Saint, who had dominated Paradise Realm for over ten thousand years, died instantly, his flesh turning into pus and blood.
Liuliu Great Saint's face changed drastically. He said, "Everyone be careful—Shu Qianchi is using the Light-Chasing Divine Needles."
The cluster of white light spots spun through the void, returning to Zhang Ruochen's palm, transforming into a bundle of ox-hair-thin needles radiating light power. These were the Light-Chasing Divine Needles he had retrieved from Fuji.
It was precisely because he possessed this terrifying killing tool that Fuji could become the emperor-level assassin of the Tian Sha Organization, second only to Taohua.
Zhang Ruochen charged toward that sea of blood, his expression exaggerated as he shouted, "You dare break my secret art? I'll kill you all!"
Zhang Ruochen chose to target the cultivators of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple because the supreme sacred artifact they controlled was still suspended in the sky, posing the least threat to him.
"Release the dao domains! Attack together—don't let him get close!" Liuliu Great Saint shouted urgently.
The moment Zhang Ruochen charged into the sea of blood, the ten Supreme Realm Great Saints within simultaneously unleashed an endless stream of sacred dao rules.
Tens of trillions of sacred dao rules formed ten dao domains, overlapping with one another.
"Boom!"
The ten Supreme Realm Great Saints activated their dao domains simultaneously, unleashing their offensive power.
From within the dao domains, blood-colored sacred mountains flew out, majestic palaces pressed down, and thousand-mile blood rivers surged forth... Zhang Ruochen, who had just charged into the sea of blood, was sent flying backward.
Unable to use spatial displacement, unable to activate the thirtyfold attack power of the Way of Truth, and unable to employ his supreme sacred artifact, Zhang Ruochen felt quite frustrated.
Ten overlapping dao domains were not something he could break through in his current state.
Zhang Ruochen's gaze shifted to the Que Tian Treasure Tree above. He secretly mobilized the Wuji Sacred Will, borrowing the sacred qi of heaven and earth to wrap around and entangle it.
"Not good—Shu Qianchi is using his secret art again, trying to forcibly seize the divine temple's supreme sacred artifact." Liuliu Great Saint's expression changed drastically. He immediately released his spiritual power and channeled sacred qi to communicate with the artifact spirit of the Que Tian Treasure Tree.
"Don't panic—this divine envoy will cut him down!"
The Judgment Divine Envoy tore through the air, his body radiating light so bright that even Great Saints found it hard to open their eyes. Strands of divine qi, like great white rivers, flowed around him.
The terrifying divine might forced the ten Supreme Realm Great Saints of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple to retreat immediately, afraid of being caught in the false god's power.
"Judgment Eight Cuts: Sever Heaven and Earth."
Above the Judgment Divine Envoy's head, a sword-shaped beam of light rose, emitting a power fluctuation that slightly distorted space.
"Watch my secret art: Dark Cloud Covering Heaven."
Zhang Ruochen pointed to the sky, summoning layers of black clouds, once again cutting off the connection between the Judgment Divine Envoy and the Star Soul Divine Throne. Instantly, the divine light on the Judgment Divine Envoy's body dimmed.
"Damn it..." The Judgment Divine Envoy trembled with frustration, unable to hold back a curse.
The next moment.
"Boom!"
Zhang Ruochen turned into a streak of light and shadow, charging forward, and punched the Judgment Divine Envoy in the chest.
"Pfft!"
The Judgment Divine Envoy's chest caved in, the flesh on his back exploded, and his face turned deathly pale. He flew backward at high speed, tumbling like a rolling gourd, crashing into a patch of waste.
This time, he was even more severely injured. His five viscera and six organs were shattered, and the pain was so intense he couldn't even cry out.
"Killing a false god is such a hassle. It seems I'll have to incinerate your physical body into ashes and shatter your divine soul into pieces to completely kill you."
Although Zhang Ruochen said this, he was ultimately unable to carry it out.
Xiaoming Jun and the twelve Supreme Realm cultivators of Ruiya Realm unleashed the Diamond Moon Wheel, which rolled in from the southeast. Where the moon wheel passed, a five-meter-deep trench appeared on the ground, and all divine patterns were destroyed.
"Using a supreme sacred artifact to suppress me? Do you really think I, Shu Qianchi, am easy to bully? Watch my Heaven-Devouring, Earth-Swallowing, Chaos-Containing Great Art!"
Although Zhang Ruochen wore a Confucian robe, he was full of spirit and vigor. Facing the rapidly approaching Diamond Moon Wheel, his long hair flew in the fierce wind. Suddenly, he sank his legs, connecting with the earth, stabilizing his body, which was being pushed back by the power of the supreme being.
His hands quickly traced a circle, and strands of primordial chaos qi seeped out, swirling around the circle.
The cultivators of Ruiya Realm were overjoyed. This Shu Qianchi was truly a battle maniac, daring to use his flesh and blood to confront a supreme sacred artifact. Wasn't this seeking death?
"Give it to me!"
Zhang Ruochen shouted, and the circle in front of him swallowed the rapidly flying Diamond Moon Wheel.
However, the impact force of the Diamond Moon Wheel was too great. Zhang Ruochen was still knocked flying, and together with it, he flew into the sea of blood formed by the ten powerhouses of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple.
"Haha! Too reckless—he actually dared to clash head-on with a supreme sacred artifact."
"He really thinks he can match a false god? He's too arrogant. He's probably been crushed to dust by the Diamond Moon Wheel."
...
The ten powerhouses of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple all laughed, rushing toward the place where Shu Qianchi had fallen. There, earth and rocks flew, and the power was chaotic, making it impossible to see clearly or sense anything for the moment.
But everyone had seen the Diamond Moon Wheel strike Shu Qianchi just now—it was absolutely true.
In the Green Pear Garden, Ao Xukong, Linglong Fairy, Hua Chunqiu, and others were all dazed and lost, unable to accept this outcome. Shu Qianchi's cultivation was so powerful—could he really have fallen?
But how could a sacred realm cultivator withstand a supreme sacred artifact unleashed by more than ten Supreme Realm Great Saints?
Michele was stunned for a moment, then laughed, saying, "Zi Hong was wrong after all. This Shu Qianchi's personality is completely different from Zhang Ruochen's—too flamboyant and a battle maniac. Most importantly, the power and methods he uses are also completely different from Zhang Ruochen's."
The dark shadow said, "I think even if he's not Zhang Ruochen, he has some connection to him. Such a personality is somewhat like that owl by Zhang Ruochen's side."
"Now that you mention it, there might be some truth to that." Michele put away his smile and said seriously.
Guna Fairy frowned slightly and shook her head, saying, "No, Shu Qianchi's life fire hasn't gone out. Liuliu Great Saint and the others are in danger."
Before she finished speaking, the twelve snow-white wings on her back had already spread open, their feathers pure white and flawless, glowing with sacred light. Then, she turned into a streak of starlight and flew into the sea of blood.
Inside the sea of blood.
The Diamond Moon Wheel had slammed a large area of earth into an arched mound, forming a hundred-meter-tall hill.
Led by Liuliu Great Saint, the ten Supreme Realm Great Saints of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple cautiously approached the Diamond Moon Wheel. Although they spoke contemptuously, they were actually very cautious, afraid of any surprises.
Countless sacred dao rules flowed around their bodies.
A Supreme Realm Great Saint with five eyes on his face had cultivated four trillion sacred dao rules within his body. After searching around, he laughed, "It seems Shu Qianchi really has been crushed to dust by the supreme sacred artifact—no bones left."
The other Supreme Realm Great Saints secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, the Diamond Moon Wheel stirred in the dirt, then flew up, smashing toward the five-eyed Supreme Realm Great Saint. Zhang Ruochen, holding the massive moon wheel with both hands, roared, "I, Shu Qianchi, am immortal and indestructible! How could a mere supreme sacred artifact kill me?"
"Boom!"
The Diamond Moon Wheel smashed through the protective talisman light barrier the five-eyed Supreme Realm Great Saint had cast, crushing his supreme dharma body into a flat cake, killing him on the spot.
"What the hell—he's still not dead!"
"This is bad—Shu Qianchi seems to have controlled the artifact spirit of the Diamond Moon Wheel and taken command of this supreme sacred artifact!"
...
The remaining nine Supreme Realm Great Saints of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple were all shocked. They immediately contracted their dao domains to form a defense while unleashing one high-rank sacred art after another, frantically attacking Shu Qianchi.
"All of you, die! Today, I, Shu Qianchi, will go on a killing spree!"
Zhang Ruochen took out all three thousand Light-Chasing Divine Needles, turning them into a river of light spots that flew around his body in a circle.
With this single rotation, not only did the speed of the Light-Chasing Divine Needles increase greatly, but Sword Dao Essence was also attached to them. Like scattering flower needles, they shot toward the nine Great Saint powerhouses of the Blood Sea Hidden Heaven Divine Temple.
