God Emperor

In the end, Zhang Ruochen still chose to hand over the Wheel of the Nether Sun to Supreme Saint Sanjin to be placed up for auction Realm of Star Ocean.

Apart from that, he asked about the great treasure that could help to condense Saintwill. It was called the Lotus of Divine Reflection. The older Lotus of Divine Reflection was, the more effective it was in condensing the Saintwill.

The Lotus of Divine Reflection was born within the void of the universe without any roots or leaves. It was a lotus formed from the surrounding power of the Origin.

The Saintwill of a Supreme Saint was a manifestation of Path of Origin.

Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised to find out that the Lotus of Divine Reflection could do such wonders.

Luo Sha was very angry that Zhang Ruochen had not sold the Wheel of the Nether Sun to her. Nevertheless, when she saw Zhang Ruochen’s surprised look, she immediately laughed. “You didn’t expect it, did you? The treasure you’re looking for happens to be the Lotus of Divine Reflection. Do you regret not bringing your confidante, the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers, to the Infernal Court?”

The true form of the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers was a Lotus of Divine Reflection that had been born in ancient times. Its effect in cultivating a Saintwill was self-evident.

Supreme Saint Sanjin said, “The Fairy of a Hundred Flowers under the Mandala Goddess in the Qianrui Realm is the oldest known Lotus of Divine Reflection in the known universe.”

“With her help, it won’t be difficult for a Supreme Saint like you to cultivate Saintwill Grade Five and above. With her, even the deities could find it easier to comprehend the Canons of cultivation paths.”

Zhang Ruochen’s face darkened. He muttered to himself, “Since the Lotus of Divine Reflection was born from the power of the Origin of Heaven and Earth, it should be very sensitive to the Path of Origin. Why have I never seen her use the power of origin?”

“What?”

Luo Sha was shocked. She fluttered her eyes in confusion and said, “Don’t you know that the Lotus of Divine Reflection is a natural Master of the Origin?” She could not help but chuckle. ” And here I thought that you and the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers were very close. Or is it that she kept the fact that she is a master of the Origin as a secret?” Luo Sha continued after a pause, “My dear Ruochen, now only you realize how hard it is to figure out a woman, right?”

“Everyone has their secrets. What’s so strange about that?”

Although Zhang Ruochen said so, he was still slightly unhappy.

After all, he regarded the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers as his best friend and confidante. He even gave her a Heart of the Divine Tree to help her build insights on the Path of Life.

‘Perhaps she has reasons that she could not tell me.’

Luo Sha said, “I’m worried about you. Not only do you attract women, you aren’t even aware when they are using you.”

Zhang Ruochen did not argue with her. He asked Supreme Saint Sanjin, “What are the grades of the other Lotus of Divine Reflection in Realm of Star Ocean?”

“They are more than 10,000 years old. Those younger than a Yuanhui can be obtained now. As for the Lotus of Divine Reflection that has survived the Yuanhui Tribulation, there’s only one, which will be sent to the auction stage,” said Supreme Saint Sanjin.

Zhang Ruochen frowned and said, “So there’s only one Lotus of Divine Reflection of Yuanhui grade.”

“Lotuses of Divine Reflection are rare treasures to begin with. In addition to the vast space of the universe, even a 10,000-year-old one is rarely seen. As for those of Yuanhui grade, I reckon that it can only be bought at Realm of Star Ocean within the entire Infernal Court. This is something that Supreme Saints, demigods, and even gods will want to buy,” said Supreme Saint Sanjin.

“The Lotus of Divine Reflection of Yuanhui grade is so precious. It will be too difficult to get it at the auction.”

Zhang Ruochen thought to himself and said, “Give me a 100,000-year-old Lotus of Divine Reflection first. Let me look at its quality. I also need ten Earth Grade Implement Nurturing Pills and ten Heaven Grade Implement Nurturing Pills. And get me fifty Heaven Grade Sacred Pills as well to assist in cultivating my spiritual power.”

The vessel spirits of Heaven Grade Sacred Pills were comparable to living beings of the Saint Kinghood. Each and every one of them was priceless.

Almost all Supreme Saints of the Neverwilt Realm and Hundred-Shackle Realm used Heaven Grade Sacred Pills to support and strengthen their cultivation.

Luo Sha was also secretly surprised by Zhang Ruochen’s purchase of 50 Heaven Grade Sacred Pills that supported cultivation of spiritual power. She spat coldly, “No one has ever dared to show off their wealth in front of me. You are the first one.”

‘Did I flaunt my wealth?’

In the Dragon Temple, Zhang Ruochen had obtained a King Grade Sacred Pill from the Lord of Stone that supported the cultivation of spiritual power.

However, he had just broken through to become a spiritual power Supreme Saint, so he did not dare to simply take it.

After he digested all 50 Heaven Grade Sacred Pills and King Grade Sacred Pill, he would have the chance to directly raise the strength of his spiritual power to the 61st level.

Just as Supreme Saint Sanjin walked out of the pavilion, a group of noble cultivators came to the lakeside. Among them, there were ten Supreme Saints. There was also a group of Deathsworn Guards in armor.

Those Deathsworn Guards were trained by the Fane of Destiny. They were all elites among the Saint Kings.

Such a mighty lineup naturally attracted the attention of Zhang Ruochen and Luo Sha.

Supreme Saint Sanjin walked up quickly and said, “Wu Jiang, Lord Sinluo, and Supreme Saint Yuan Fei, why didn’t any escorts report your arrival? I could be impudent for not welcoming you from afar.”

The three Supreme Saints in the lead all emitted extraordinary auras. Despite the suppression from surrounding precepts, their auras remained intimidating.

Luo Sha said to Zhang Ruochen in a low voice, “You’re lucky. Wu Jiang is here! That’s the guy known as the Ten Thousand Hands Supreme Saint.”

“Wu Jiang? Wu Jiang from the Fane of Darkness?”

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze was fixed on Ten Thousand Hands Supreme Saint.

Not long ago, Luo Sha had said that he was ranked as the fifth elite of Hundred-Shackle Realm’s Great Perfection stage. He was also one of his three strongest enemies.

The Ten Thousand Hands Supreme Saint Wu Jiang looked like a human. He was handsome and tall. There was a black lightning streak mark between his brows. He possessed a prideful personality and looked down on all living things.

However, there was a sincere and gentle divine light in his eyes. No one would be able to hate him.

In short, he was a Supreme Saint elite that possessed great charisma. It was difficult to see through him.

If he was an enemy, he would be a terrifying foe indeed.

Zhang Ruochen had just looked at Wu Jiang for a moment for him to get noticed. He looked over and met Zhang Ruochen’s eyes.

In an instant, Wu Jiang figured out Zhang Ruochen’s identity. He narrowed his eyes and he said to the elite Supreme Saints beside him, “We came early, but it turned out to be the right time. Lord Sinluo, the enemy who killed your brother is right there.”

All of a sudden, more eyes were cast on Zhang Ruochen.

Luo Sha giggled and explained to Zhang Ruochen, “Lord Sinluo is the son of Lord Chi Hun from the Deathkin. His cultivation has reached the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm. Of course, more importantly, he is the elder brother of the Chixing Shenzi who died at your hands. who was one of your other great foes.”

“Chixing Shenzi?”

Zhang Ruochen had killed too many Scions, Scioness, and descendants of deities. He couldn’t remember every single one of them clearly, so he had to rummage through his memories.

Lord Sinluo’s eyes were cold. He wanted to walk over, but he was stopped by Supreme Saint Sanjin, who used spiritual power to communicate with him to dissuade him.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t seem to care. He sat calmly in the pavilion and watched them.

Suddenly, the group of cultivators quieted down and moved away.

A tall figure in a white robe walked out. She was dressed as a man, but no one would take her as a man. Her facial features were exquisitely formed, with ruby lips and pearly teeth. She had eyes as clear as spring, spiritual brilliance flowing her snow-white skin.

She was wearing a man’s outfit, which was already very surprising to those gathered.

The moment Zhang Ruochen saw her, his eyes were no longer calm. His heart began to pound harder and his hands on the table were trembling slightly.

Supreme Saint Sanjin cupped their hands again and greeted the figure. They showed their signature smile and said, “Your Holiness is here. Supreme Saints, please come this way. I have already asked the servants to prepare the best seats…”

“Wait.”

Pan Ruo raised a slender hand and stopped Supreme Saint Sanjin from continuing.

Her beautiful eyes stared at Zhang Ruochen and Luo Sha, who was not far away. Her gaze was filled with a deep radiance. After a long pause, she said, “There’s no need to arrange other seats. I want to sit next to them.”

“This…”

Supreme Saint Sanjin looked troubled.

It was impossible for him to not see the hatred between this group of people and Zhang Ruochen. What if a sudden fight broke out and ruined the auction?

Scion Yuan Mo followed closely behind Pan Ruo. His eyes were cold. “Zhang Ruochen, you didn’t expect to see me again, did you?”

Zhang Ruochen still had some vague memories of Yuan Mo.

He was practically the only leader in the Battlefield of Merits within the Northern Region of Kunlun, where he led a large army of divine Deathkin. His cultivation was exceedingly strong, and he was an extremely talented person.

Zhang Ruochen knew that Scion Yuan Mo had been pursuing Pan Ruo. Now that he was still there by Pan Ruo’s side, an unknown coldness naturally rose within his heart, “I am indeed a little surprised,” he said. “I thought you died on Xianji Mountain! Since you’re alive, cherish it. Don’t joke at the expense of your life anymore, because luck does not hold forever.”

Luo Sha looked at Zhang Ruochen with surprise.

She had never seen Zhang Ruochen make such vicious remarks. He seemed to be trying to provoke Yuan Mo to anger him. Or did he want to kill Yuan Mo instead?

‘I wonder what kind of feud between them?’

As expected, Scion Yuan Mo was enraged. He roared, “You would not have defeated me on the Xianji Mountain without external help!”

“So you’ve broken through and attained Supreme Sainthood. Very good, since you’re not convinced, do you dare to fight me in the Arena of Life and Death?” Zhang Ruochen said.

“You…”

Scion Yuan Mo was at loss of words.

Not long ago, he had heard the news that the Six Supreme Saints of the Mara family had lost to Zhang Ruochen in the Arena of Life and Death.

Although Scion Yuan Mo was confident, he knew that there was still a huge gap between him and Warlord Mara. Naturally, he could not be Zhang Ruochen’s opponent.

Going to the Arena of Life and Death was no different from throwing one’s life away.

Lord Sinluo pushed Supreme Saint Sanjin away and walked out with great strides. “Zhang Ruochen, don’t be so arrogant. Do you dare to go to the Arena of Life and Death with me?

“Why not?” Zhang Ruochen said.

Lord Sinluo said, “You have guts. Since that’s the case, there’s no need to participate in the auction. Let’s go to the Arena of Life and Death right now to decide who will live.”

At this moment, a burst of melodious laughter rang out from afar. “The great Lord Sinluo of the Deathkin, an elite of the Great Perfection in the Hundred-Shackle Realm, is making things difficult for a Supreme Saint of the Neverwilt Realm. Do you think that Immortal Vampires don’t have any elites?”

Another group of cultivators arrived by the lakeside.

The leader was a woman in colorful robes. She wore a golden mask and her body was shrouded in mist, and she possessed a mysterious and alluring aura.

Behind her was a large group of powerful figures. There were nearly ten Supreme Saints, with saint level guards in golden armor which opened the path ahead.

Supreme Saint Sanjin had a headache when he saw who was coming. He was afraid that the two groups of people would clash, so he immediately went forward to greet the woman in colorful robes and separated the groups.

Luo Sha grabbed Zhang Ruochen’s wrist and pulled him back to his seat, and whispered, “Don’t you want to participate in the auction? Just remain calm and don’t resort to your fists to solve problems all the time. The Lady Wind has arrived, which means that two Scioness candidates have bumped into each other. So why don’t you sit down and have a good time watching whatever happens next.”

Some things remained even when Zhang Ruochen let go.

Pan Ruo’s presence could still stir Zhang Ruochen’s feelings. After all, she had been his only wife.

To be more precise, she was now his ex-wife.

How could they get married if there was no love?

How could he forget her just like that if he had loved her?

The two groups of people clashed, and the tension instantly became intense. Those gathered were at daggers drawn. If a fight was triggered, they would turn the world upside down.

Scion Yuan Mo, Lord Sinluo, and the others pushed Zhang Ruochen aside and confronted the Supreme Saints beside Lady Wind.

It was obvious that this was not the first time the two groups of people had met. They had fought many times before. That was why they were so hostile towards each other.

However, Pan Ruo’s attention was already on the pavilion. Seeing Luo Sha’s intimate actions toward Zhang Ruochen, her slender eyebrows furrowed slightly.

Lord Sinluo spoke rudely, “Lady Wind is indeed unreasonable. It was Zhang Ruochen who provoked him first. How did it become me who was making things difficult for him? Besides, the Neverwilt Realm Supreme Saint you mentioned was the one who defeated Warlord Mara. I’m afraid that only the stupidest person would think of him as a Neverwilt Realm Supreme Saint.”

Luo Sha was sly. She pretended to be shocked. “Lord Sinluo, are you taking a roundabout way to call sister Lady Wind stupid?”

Suddenly, three figures walked out from behind Lady Wind. All of them were in the Great Perfection of the Hundred-Shackle Realm, and they wanted to teach Lord Sinluo a lesson.

The atmosphere of the two sides became even tenser.

Zhang Ruochen had calmed down completely. He knew Luo Sha were trying to incite that group to harm Lord Sinluo and, at the same time, help him out.

In her opinion, with Zhang Ruochen’s current cultivation, he was no match for a Great Perfection elite in the Hundred-Shackle Realm. He definitely couldn’t go fight such an opponent in the Arena of Life and Death as well.

“You should be curious as to why Pan Ruo who hasn’t reached the Supreme Sainthood can make the elites of the Great Perfection in the Hundred Shackle-Realm like Wu Jiang and the Lord Sinluo follow her lead, right?” Luo Sha used another alternative and diverted Zhang Ruochen’s attention.

“Indeed, I am a little curious.”

Zhang Ruochen said lightly. “What’s so great about the Scioness from the Fane of Destiny?”

“Before I talk about the Scioness, I have to tell you that the three Scioness candidates are different.. Pan Ruo represents the interests of the upper three clans, and Lady Wind represents the interests of the lower three clans.”
