The God-eater Bug had absorbed the poison from the divine corpse in the copper coffin. After many years of cultivation by Zhang Ruochen, it had morphed and evolved. It could be considered the second generation of the God-eater Bug.
At first, Hai Ke didn’t care about being bitten by the God-eater Bug.
But as time passed, poisonous green lines appeared on his body. Even though he was a corpse and more of a dead spirit, he still felt the terror of the poison.
His body became numb, and his reflexes slowed down. His power also decreased significantly.
One could imagine that if the creatures at the Banshi Isshou Realm were bitten, they would be poisoned to death.
Hai Ke finally realized the danger and sensed the threat of death.
‘I didn’t expect Zhang Ruochen to raise such a large group of God-eater Bugs that contain divine poison. I’ve miscalculated. I can’t continue this stalemate. I have to leave immediately.’
Hai Ke withdrew the nine trillion precepts that had condensed into a Precept Domain into his body. He grabbed the Catastrophic Ax with both hands and struck the ground.
BOOM!
The space shook.
A thick, powerful thunderlight shuttle surged out of the Catastrophic Ax and sent the God-eater Bugs flying.
Even the impact hit the fist-sized Sevenstar Imperial Palace in the distance and crashed into the thick ice wall.
Zhang Ruochen stood at the palace gate and shook his body. He thought to himself, ‘As expected from the divine corpse physique. The divine poison has entered its body, but it can still launch such a powerful attack.’
However, Zhang Ruochen knew very well that Hai Ke was already at the end of his rope. He was probably going to escape.
“Zhang Ruochen, you’re good. Next time, I’ll definitely take the treasure that can restrain the God-eater Bug and take your head.”
Hai Ke turned into a streak of divine light and flew into the distance.
“Do you think there will be a next time?”
Zhang Ruochen’s voice was still behind him. However, Hai Ke was surprised to find that the Sevenstar Imperial Palace had appeared before him. It was as big as a real palace, and Zhang Ruochen stood in the center of the palace gate.
Zhang Ruochen was in a bow drawing position and held the Ancient Abyssal Sword with both hands. The sword was like an arrow on the bowstring.
BANG!
The bowstring sounded.
Zhang Ruochen and the Ancient Abyssal Sword seemed to have become one. They turned into a fast-flying beam of light, dragging a tail that was dozens of meters long, and hit Hai Ke.
Hai Ke gritted his teeth. His arm that held the ax spun like a windmill, and a mighty aura surged out of his body.
He struck out with the ax.
BOOM!
The Ancient Abyssal Sword broke through Hai Ke’s protective Precept Domain and hit his chest hard. The entire sword pierced through, and the tip of the sword emerged from his back.
Hai Ke’s ax struck Zhang Ruochen, causing sparks to fly from the Armor of the Fire God.
Zhang Ruochen flew out diagonally, smashing a long string of ruined buildings and creating a deep ravine on the seabed.
The Catastrophic Ax didn’t break the Armor of the Fire God, but the impact made Zhang Ruochen’s bones fall apart. Cracks appeared on his internal organs, and blood flowed out of his mouth.
If Hai Ke had struck at his peak, Zhang Ruochen didn’t know if his Demigod-level physique could withstand it.
Zhang Ruochen’s sword had merged with the Heaven Sword Soul, causing Hai Ke’s Saint Soul to suffer an unprecedented serious injury. Because his Saint Soul was injured, it was tough for him to mobilize the Divine Qi in his body and gather enough power.
To deal with a dead spirit like Hai Ke. Only by attacking his spirit could Zhang Ruochen kill him completely.
The cultivators of the Fane of Barasingha had been chasing after Zhang Ruochen. At this moment, they were hiding in a corner far away. They were standing on a huge ancient map to hide their aura.
“It seems to be true. Zhang Ruochen can seriously injure Hai Ke, and the news about defeating Nan Sheng. It’s not so hard to believe anymore!” Bai Fang said.
Bai Fang was a Supreme Saint of the Fane of Barasingha. He didn’t go with the other Supreme Saints to explore the depths of the Fane of Origin. Instead, he stayed behind to protect Lan Ying. He was in charge of preserving the Fane of Barasingha’s interests outside the Fane of Origin.
A Thousand-Koan Realm Supreme Saint said disdainfully, “Zhang Ruochen can only restrain Hai Ke with the help of the God-eater Bug.”
“But Zhang Ruochen is the master of the God-eater Bug.”
Bai Fang glanced at Lan Ying and said, “Let’s go. Zhang Ruochen has already reached the pinnacle. Hai Ke has suffered a great loss. Even if we attack, we won’t be able to win.”
Although Bai Fang’s cultivation was in the Paramount Realm, he had only cultivated more than two trillion precepts. His battle strength was weaker than Hai Ke at the Banshi Isshou Realm.
“Zhang Ruochen was hit by HAi Ke’s ax. Even if he didn’t die, he must have been seriously injured. Isn’t now the best time for us to attack?” asked Lan Ying.
He couldn’t forget about Zhang Ruochen, a Yuanhui-level genius. He had always wanted to devour him.
Then, Lan Ying looked at Hai Ke, whose body was on the verge of collapse. He smiled and said, “Why don’t we devour them together?”
Bai Fang was shocked and stopped him immediately. He said, “The Fane of Barasingha has always insisted that we should never provoke powerful enemies of the Infernal Court. We should keep a low profile and progress steadily. Killing Zhang Ruochen is to completely rope in Asurendra Samay. But Hai Ke is the disciple of that important figure in the Apeiron Sea. He is also the top-notch powerhouse of the mortal world who will take over Yuan Qianmo from the Deathkin in the future. He must not be touched.”
“If Zhang Ruochen can be touched, why can’t I?”
Lan Ying did not listen at all. He felt that Bai Fang was too cautious and had too many restrictions. Lan Ying thought, ‘No wonder he could only cultivate and reach the Paramount Realm in his life. At most, he would be given a Divinity Source in the future to cultivate into a pseudo god.
Lan Ying was a peerless genius. He couldn’t let himself listen to the words of such a mediocre person.
If he listened to the words of a mediocre person, he would only become a mediocre person.
People don’t become average because they were born average. It was because he didn’t dare to do extraordinary things. Walking down the extraordinary path was the path of extraordinary changes.
Lan Ying summoned six swords. Just as he was about to make his move, dazzling divine light surged out of Hai Ke’s body and turned into a mighty divine cloud. Countless precepts wrapped around his body.
Thunder and lightning shuttled through the divine cloud.
There were also Hai Ke’s deafening roars.
Bai Fang’s eyes focused. “Hai Ke is condensing a supreme body. He’s about to break through.”
“He just cultivated more than 9 trillion precepts, and he’s already broken through? Hai Ke was crippled by Zhang Ruochen!” Lan Ying shook his head and sneered.
When Bai Fang thought about how he had only cultivated more than 1 trillion precepts when he had formed his Paramount physique, he felt like he had been stabbed in the heart.
With Hai Ke’s cultivation, once he broke the realm, the number of precepts would definitely exceed 10 trillion. Although he was still in the Paramount Realm, such a Paramount Realm was called a “Demigod”.
Bai Fang recovered after a long time. “Let’s go. Hai Ke is well prepared. He has already swallowed the Emperor Grade Sacred Pill that helped him form his Paramount physique. Breaking the realm is inevitable.”
The aura from Hai Ke grew stronger and stronger. It swept to the hiding places of the cultivators of the Fane of Barasingha.
Some Supreme Saints with lower cultivation felt the terrifying aura and faint divine power. Their faces turned pale. They felt Hai Ke was no longer a Supreme Saint but a god.
“After Hai Ke breaks through the realm, if he finds us hiding in the dark, he might kill us all with his ferocity.”
“Zhang Ruochen might have already escaped. I’m afraid we won’t have a chance if we don’t escape now.”
…
The cultivators of the Fane of Barasingha said anxiously. They all looked at Lan Ying.
Lan Ying wasn’t satisfied. He said, “Let’s go! After breaking through, Hai Ke isn’t someone we can afford to provoke.”
Just as Lan Ying said, Hai Ke breaking through at this time was equivalent to self-destruction.
For cultivators who wanted to break through to the representative level of the Yuanhui-level, accumulating ten trillion precepts at the pinnacle of the Banshi Isshou Realm was an indispensable threshold.
Breaking through before crossing the threshold was equivalent to cutting off the qualification to enter the ranks of the top-notch powerhouse in the secular world.
This represented not only reputation but also a great influence.
As the number one powerhouse of the Fane of Death and the Deathkin, Yuan Qianmo had more than ten times the power and resources as the number two powerhouse of the Deathkin.
This was because the Deathkin had to nurture a peerless master at all costs in the secular world, protecting and expanding the interests of the Deathkin in the secular world.
Yuan Qianmo was the representative of the Deathkins.
With so many resources, Yuan Qianmo could accumulate to an extreme level under the Neverwilt Realm. Once he broke through to the Neverwilt Realm, he could become a powerhouse among the gods.
As for Hai Ke, he had lost the qualification to be the face of the new generation of the Deathkin, so he could break through to divinity quickly. However, he needed to cultivate for tens of thousands of years in the divinity to reach Yuan Qianmo’s strength when he had just broken through to the divinity.
The accumulation under the divinity could greatly shorten the cultivation time in the divinity.
Therefore, many peerless figures would choose to accumulate more time under the divinity if they were not in a hurry to get things done.
Hai Ke was forced to make a breakthrough.
Zhang Ruochen was seriously injured, but he was sitting cross-legged in the ruins. He used the Myriad Curse Bead to curse him, making it impossible for him to escape. The God-eater Bugs came again. If he didn’t choose to break through, he might die today at Zhang Ruochen’s hands.
Hai Ke’s breakthrough was coming to an end.
There were more than ten trillion precepts around him. The precepts were twice as thick. The power of each precept was ten times stronger.
If the God-eater Bugs got close, they would instantly be swept away by his aura.
Zhang Ruochen knew that he couldn’t stop Hai Ke. He stopped cursing. A grim expression appeared between his brows.
He stood up slowly. Most of his injuries had recovered.
He didn’t choose to run away. After all, the Heart of Truth had been exposed. Even if he had a chance, he had to kill Hai Ke. “You two have been watching for so long. Aren’t you going to show yourself?”
There was no response.
Zhang Ruochen said again, “If you kill Hai Ke, all his treasures will be yours. I won’t take them.”
The Seven-Armed Elder popped a head out of the ground and said, “Are you serious?”
“I, Zhang Ruochen, am not short of treasures,” Zhang Ruochen said.
A bright Dimensional Array suddenly appeared and spun in the water.
Master Ye You stood in the center of the array and said, “Hai Ke’s divine body belongs to me, and so does the Sainthood Source. I think the Catastrophic Ax should still belong to me. If you don’t agree to my condition, then this matter can not be discussed.”
“Is this a condition?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
Unexpectedly, the Seven-Armed Elder agreed readily and said, “These three things belong to you, but the other treasures on him all belong to me.”
