Chapter 1590: Hundred Flower Fairy, Ji Fanxin
Both the feebleness and the injuries made it difficult for Shang Feng to kill Zhang Ruochen.
Seeing the black skull dashing toward him, Shang Feng was shocked.
He was nowhere near strong enough to ward off an evil demon like that.
Run.He had to run.
No matter how upset he was, he had to run now.
Whoosh!
A cluster of demonic Qi gushed out of Shang Feng’s body, turning into thousands of blood-red demonic butterflies, flying in the dark.
The black skull crashed into the group of butterflies, extended a black bony hand, and grabbed the largest demonic butterfly and tore a wing down.
The blood-red demonic butterfly yelled in agony, knowing he couldn’t make it safe today, and shouted, “I’ll bring you down with me, Zhang Ruochen…”
Just before the blood-red demonic butterfly was about to blow up his saint source, that black skull roared with excitement and pierced through his skull, digging his saint source out.Shang Feng’s saint soul wasn’t dismantled, and the butterfly tried to fly out of the saint source and run away.
However, that blood-red butterfly was caught by the exhilarated black skull right after it flew out. The skull swallowed the butterfly, and the green ghost fire refined Shang Feng’s saint soul.
Zhang Ruochen had never expected something like this to happen. He rushed forward to see what the black skull was doing. “It’s refining Shang Feng’s saint soul…”
“The skull is sealing the fragmented soul of a supreme saint, which has turned into an evil spirit. That evil spirit is swallowing Shang Feng’s saint soul to make itself stronger.” With Buddha sarira, Zhang Ruochen was confident enough to control that evil spirit.
After hesitating for a while, Zhang Ruochen didn’t stop it, as he wanted to see what was happening next.
Shang Feng’s saint soul was struggling to get out, yet another stronger soul power was suppressing him.
After fifteen minutes, the black skull managed to refine and absorb Shang Feng’s saint soul completely, and its evil sha Qi got stronger. It glared at Zhang Ruochen with its ghostly eyes as if it wanted to challenge him.
“Its forces have surged. Seems like it can rival a fifth-step saint king, but I’m your master, and you’re nowhere near enough to fight me yet.” Zhang Ruochen controlled the Buddha sarira with his hands.
Suddenly, the sarira on the black skull’s forehead gleamed with golden light, covering it completely and purifying its evil sha Qi.
Howl!
The black skull yelled, trying to fight back.
Zhang Ruochen snorted, flipping his hand. Suddenly, the sarira became extremely heavy, suppressing the black skull to kneel on the ground.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t retract his mind power until he purified most of the evil sha Qi of the black skull, and then, the black skull turned back into a white bone saint scepter.
Zhang Ruochen then grabbed Shang Feng’s saint source.
The saint source that was as large as a fist looked transparent, giving out blood-red demonic light like a heavy ruby.
Inside the saint source was a cauldron as large as a thumb.
Seeing the cauldron, Zhang Ruochen looked pleased.
It was a rules saint weapon formed by Shang Feng, which was priceless to half-step saint kings and lower-class saint kings.
Normally, the rules saint weapons would dissipate the second the saint kings died, which meant nobody could gain their rules saint weapons. However, Shang Feng didn’t have time to dismantle his rules saint weapon before he died, which benefited Zhang Ruochen.
A rules saint weapon left by a fifth-step saint king was immensely valuable.
Zhang Ruochen put away Shang Feng’s saint source and started to search the body of Shang Feng. He found three valuables, a seed of Truth and Illusion Saint Flower, a pair of blood-red boxing gloves, and a black demonic pot.
That pair of boxing gloves was a Second Yao Ten Thousand Patterns Saint Weapon.
Because of that pair of boxing gloves, Shang Feng managed to ward off the Abyss Ancient Sword with his hands.
However, Zhang Ruochen had the boxing gloves formed by Hundred Saint Blood Armor, so he wasn’t even using the boxing gloves from the Fiery God Armor. He then put the gloves into his space ring after refining the saint Qi inside.
The seed of True and Illusion Saint Flower was interesting. After he infused his mind power and saint Qi inside, he could create illusions, and he was able to change the illusions with just one thought.
Even a monk like Zhang Ruochen who had never practiced illusion techniques could become an illusion master after gaining it.
“Shang Feng said that the illusion created by the seed of True and Illusion Saint Flower can trick a seventh-step saint king. If so, that seed would be more valuable than the pair of boxing gloves.”
Zhang Ruochen then picked up the magic pot, and after studying it, he found that the magic pot looked like a secret treasure with lots of ancient inscriptions on, including sealing inscriptions, forbidden law inscriptions, and divine fire inscriptions.
“Shang Feng released the saint soul of Thousand Universe Demonic Master from this magic pot, but his saint soul is probably not Fairy Extreme King’s match. He’s probably been suppressed already.”
Without the saint soul of Thousand Universe Demonic Master, the magic pot was useless.
The evil spirit in Yi Emperor Bone Scepter was only a fragmented soul of supreme saint ‘Yi Emperor,’ so its power was significantly less than Thousand Universe Demonic Master. If the bone scepter sealed the complete saint soul of a supreme saint, Yi Emperor Bone Scepter would’ve been much stronger.
If so, Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t be able to handle Yi Emperor Bone Scepter.
Zhang Ruochen put away Shang Feng’s corpse, leaving it for Carnivorous Holy Flower.
And then, Zhang Ruochen immediately left and headed toward Yin and Yang Palace.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t know that someone had been staring at him from the darkness when he killed Shang Feng.
After he left, a woman in white walked out and whispered, “He’s Zhang Ruochen, Time and Space Descendant. He’s just a half-step saint king, yet he managed to kill a fifth-step saint king. No wonder he dared rival Golden Roc Prince.”
That woman in white had rushed out of Hundred Flower Palace to kill Shang Feng, but she accidentally figured out Zhang Ruochen’s identity.
Any monk would be interested in the person ranked first on the ‘Saints Merits Rank’, including that woman in white.
…
The dawn didn’t make Heavenly Capital Saint Market bustle less; instead, there were more monks on the streets.
The statue of the Moon Goddess was erected outside Yin and Yang Palace. She looked ethereal, yet the monks going in and out of Yin and Yang Ocean didn’t find that statue holy. Instead, they smiled sneakily.
Especially the couple of sexy ladies standing beside the statue. Their bodies and looks completely ruined the divinity of the godly statue.
Monks who were wearing capes or masks, or were using their saint power to cover their bodies kept walking into Yin and Yang Palace. All of them were careful as they didn’t want to be recognized by people they knew.
Zhang Ruochen turned into Shang Feng using Traceless 36 Changes, put on a mask and observed in the dark for a long time. He didn’t walk toward Yin and Yang Palace until he realized there were no flaws in his camouflage.
However, a breeze blew him away right when he stepped on the street.
Zhang Ruochen was shocked. He immediately mobilized his saint Qi, trying to get out of the breeze, yet the breeze felt like threads, sometimes soft and sometimes tight. He couldn’t get out at all.
After spinning in the air for a while, Zhang Ruochen found himself back in the dark again, standing beside a wall of Yin and Yang Palace.
“Who’s there?”
Zhang Ruochen immediately triggered Hundred Saint Blood Armor, and blue Divine Fire Jingmie emerged on his palm.
A woman in white wearing a veil was standing with her back toward him. She was engulfed in light rain, and the light spots looked like those from a nebula, covering her entire body.
Even the back was already breathtaking, looking like a beautiful shadow in a picture, looking mysterious and indiscernible.
“Ji Fanxin.”
Zhang Ruochen had seen Hundred Flower Fairy, Ji Fanxin, before, so he immediately recognized who she was.
Zhang Ruochen was astounded. How did Ji Fanxin find him?
Zhang Ruochen was very cautious. He not only used Buddha beads to cover his forces, but also changed his face eight times until he looked exactly like Shang Feng. Zhang Ruochen would in no way believe Ji Fanxin bumped into him by accident.
The only explanation was that she’d been following Zhang Ruochen since he left Hundred Flower Palace, yet he hadn’t noticed her at all.
Zhang Ruochen felt cold thinking about that.
It would be very easy for her to kill him.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t calm himself down until after a long time. He put away his Hundred Saint Blood Armor and Divine Fire Jingmie, as she could’ve done it a long time ago.
“Why’re you trying to stop me from going to Yin and Yang Palace?” said Zhang Ruochen.
Ji Fanxin didn’t turn around. She said, with her melodious voice, “I’m stopping you from committing suicide.”
“How so?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
Ji Fanxin said, “You really thought you’d be completely safe after changing your face and hiding your forces? Did you see that black bronze mirror on the gate of Yin and Yang Palace? That’s Yin and Yang Mirror which can tell all the camouflage. No monks can sneak in without being noticed. Your picture has been sent to Yin and Yang Palace, and many horrific powerful beings are waiting for you.”
Zhang Ruochen looked to Yin and Yang Palace, and he indeed saw a black bronze mirror at the top right corner on the gate.
Zhang Ruochen was confident of his Traceless 36 Changes, yet he still hadn’t perfected the techniques yet. He wasn’t sure whether he could trick Yin and Yang Palace.
Yin and Yang Palace is a horrendous place which has offended many large fields, yet it’s still in Heavenly Capital Saint Market. It’s indeed way more complicated than I thought. Lucky that Ji Fanxin told me, otherwise…
Zhang Ruochen then realized how horrible his enemies were, and if he wasn’t always careful, he would be annihilated.
“Why did you save me? The grudge between me and Yin and Yang Palace seems to have nothing to do with Thousand Pistil Field, and we’ve never met each other before. Why did Hundred Flower Fairy, who has always turned people down, help a human stranger?” asked Zhang Ruochen.
“Who told you it has nothing to do with Thousand Pistil Field?”
Ji Fanxin turned around, and she looked to Zhang Ruochen with her beautiful eyes.
Seeing that pair of beautiful eyes, Zhang Ruochen immediately recalled the women he’d met in Book Garden Cave. He said with surprise, “It’s you.”
