Chapter 2577: The Flawless Nan Sheng

“Unextinguishable Mo Yang.”

Nan Sheng let out a soft cry as he released his powerful spiritual power and condensed a pitch-black Mo Yang.

The Mo Yang and his head merged into one.

The Bright Moon carried by the Ancient Abyssal Blade collided with Mo Yang, forming two arcs of light, one white and one black. Following that, extremely violent energy surged out from the moon and sun.

The tip of the sword could not touch Nan Sheng’s scalp.

CRASH

The ruins under Nan Sheng’s feet shattered, and his body sank downwards.

The energy gushed out from the ground and sent the surrounding ruins flying, clearing the vast and flat piece of land. Not far away, an ancient and broken array was triggered by it, and dense and sharp Sword Qi flew out from the array.

Before the Sword Qi got close to Zhang Ruochen and Nan Sheng, it was shattered by the powerful force from their bodies.

Not long after, the light spots from the Mark of Time faded away.

Nan Sheng took this opportunity to mobilize the 300 billion Precepts in the Precept Domain. They turned into destructive power and surrounded Zhang Ruochen from all directions.

Zhang Ruochen had only practiced more than 10 billion Precepts. How could he withstand the attack of 300 billion Precepts?

Whoosh

He used the Great Dimensional Shift again and escaped.

Nan Sheng seized the moment of weakness when he used the Great Dimensional Shift. The fan in his hand flew out and spun quickly, cutting the afterimage of Zhang Ruochen as he left.

At 300 meters away, Zhang Ruochen appeared again.

A three-inch-long gap had appeared on his white robe.

It was dangerous for him a moment ago. The difference in cultivation was too big. Zhang Ruochen cannot be hit by Nan Sheng. If the attack hit him, he would be seriously injured.

This was someone who had practiced seven trillion Precepts. He couldn’t be compared to Lord Ironclad, who had practiced more than one trillion Precepts and was at the peak of the Banshi Isshou Realm.

“His reaction speed is so fast. The Sword of Time and Canon of Dimension can’t even do anything to him,” Zhang Ruochen thought.

Nan Sheng had long stopped underestimating him, and he thought to himself, “Zhang Ruochen is so powerful. I had almost lost to him, and he’s only in the cultivation of Hundred-Shackle Realm, but he’s already more of a threat to me than some Paramount Realm Supreme Saints.

The figures in the distance didn’t expect the battle between Nan Sheng and Zhang Ruochen to be so intense. It wasn’t one-sided at all.

In particular, Zhang Ruochen could advance and retreat freely in Nan Sheng’s Precept Domain. It overthrew their previous understanding. At the same time, they had a deeper understanding of the power of the Path of Dimension.

Nan Sheng mobilized three trillion Precepts to form a giant black bell that spun rapidly and enveloped his body.

Then, he mobilized the remaining four trillion Precepts in the Precept Domain to form 40 light sabers that attacked Zhang Ruochen from all different directions.

No matter how mysterious the Path of Dimension was, with the protection of the giant bell, one could still stand in an invincible position.

No matter how fast you ran, there would be a flaw in the instant you performed the Great Dimensional Shift. Any of the 40 light sabers that caught the flaw and slashed at you would be able to injure you severely.

Zhang Ruochen activated 670 million Intergold Precept Marks and merged them with the Ancient Abyssal Blade. It shone with a boundless golden light and hacked away the light sabers one by one.

Nan Sheng chuckled and rode the giant black bell. He rushed out from behind the light sabers and fiercely crashed towards Zhang Ruochen.

“Eleven Sword.”

Zhang Ruochen had long been ahead of him. He calmly swung his sword horizontally, leaving a straight sword light behind. This sword merged with the Path of Truth and exploded with 30 times the attack power to land on the black bell.

This was Sword Eleven of the Great Perfection!

Thud

The bell rang with a cracking sound.

The Precepts were shattered where the black bell was hit, leaving a long gash.

Nan Sheng’s expression changed slightly. Zhang Ruochen had inherited the precept marks of the Intergold Tiger. He was extremely powerful, with all his power gathered in one thread. His attack with a heaven-defying sword had actually broken through his array defense.

Nan Sheng immediately mobilized the Golden Flare and formed a golden shield print to hit the Ancient Abyssal Blade.

Boom

After breaking the giant black bell, the Ancient Abyssal Blade’s power was exhausted. After being hit by the golden shield print again, a tremendous amount of power surged back, forcing Zhang Ruochen to be knocked flying again.

Zhang Ruochen retreated to the bottom of a broken wall. He stopped and stared fixedly at Nan Sheng.

He had to admit that Nan Sheng was also a flawlessly superior elite. They were all at the top level, whether it was his attack, defense, or reaction speed in actual combat.

In the same realm, Zhang Ruochen could certainly crush him with power.

However, in the current situation, finding Nan Sheng’s weaknesses and a chance to win was difficult.

If the long battle went on, Zhang Ruochen would be the one to lose because Nan Sheng was also looking for his weakness.

His lower realm was Zhang Ruochen’s biggest weakness.

The huge black bell reformed again, and Nan Sheng stood inside; then, he said, “I’ve long heard that your Path of Truth is very powerful. It lives up to its reputation. However, that sword blow just now should have exhausted the Blood Qi in your body, right?”

“Do you think that I can’t break your defense?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Nan Sheng said, “I heard that you have a macroworld in your body and that you can mobilize the world’s power and make your power close to that of a Paramount Realm Supreme Saint. Aren’t you going to use that power?”

Many spectators were watching the battle between Zhang Ruochen and Yan Wushen.

It was no secret that Zhang Ruochen had a macroworld among the high-level cultivators in the Infernal Court.

However, Nan Sheng also knew that when Zhang Ruochen mobilized the power of the world close to the Paramount Realm Supreme Saint, he almost couldn’t bear the power of the world and nearly died. Therefore, he wasn’t that afraid of Zhang Ruochen’s trump card. He just wanted to know how much power Zhang Ruochen could be forced to use at his full strength.

He was always curious about those geniuses of a Yuanhui period.

Sikong the Elder and Sikong the Younger looked worried. This Nan Sheng was too powerful. Their master had already used all his trump cards but couldn’t do anything to him. Instead, he was almost in danger.

Zhang Ruochen calculated in his heart that he had to reach the peak of the Thousand-Koan Realm at least to defeat a powerful person like Nan Sheng.

After all, for Zhang Ruochen, his current cultivation of the Hundred-Shackle Realm could only account for less than 10% of his combat power. The power of the Demigod-level physique and the Canon took up the other 90%.

Even if he broke through to the Thousand-Koan Realm, the improvement in his combat power would be minimal.

As long as he reached the peak of the Thousand-Koan Realm and accumulated enough Precepts, the Saint Qi and the Blood Qi in his body would be sufficient to form his combat power.

Zhang Ruochen said, “It is indeed meaningless to fight like this. It seems that I can only defeat you with external force.”

“Try to take another sword blow from me.”

Swish Swish?

Zhang Ruochen performed seven Great Dimensional Shifts in a row to avoid the precept light sabers. In an instant, he reached the top of Nan Sheng’s head and raised his sword with both hands before hacking downwards.

The Violet Godstone on the sword shone as bright as the stars.

At the same time, the worldly power of the Qiankun Realm surged through Zhang Ruochen’s arms like a roaring river. It caused the four heavenly tribulation imprints, “Wind,” “Fire,” “Water,” and “Thunder,” to appear on the Ancient Abyssal Blade.

Nan Sheng looked up at the incoming war sword and felt an invisible pressure.

Swish

The forty light sabers dispersed and turned into four trillion Precepts. They surged toward the giant black bell, making it bigger, thicker, and more solid.

BANG

The Ancient Abyssal Blade struck the giant black bell, and an earth-shattering peal of sound spread out. It sent both Sikong the Elder and Sikong the Younger standing nearby, flying like scarecrows.

Nan Sheng’s legs trembled slightly. He gritted his teeth and supported himself with all his strength.

“This is... power close to the Paramount Realm... and it had exceeded some of the Paramount Realm Supreme Saints might...”

CRASH

The Ancient Abyssal Blade broke through the black bell and struck Nan Sheng’s right shoulder.

Half of Nan Sheng’s body was slammed into the ground. Blood poured out of his shoulder, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

However, Zhang Ruochen was slightly stunned by this.

The sword could split apart the black bell, but it couldn’t split Nan Sheng’s body.

Zhang Ruochen saw that apart from the thirty-six beast engravings, there were also blood-red inscriptions on Nan Sheng’s skin.

He carved the runes on his body.

Nan Sheng, who only had a small part of his body sticking out of the ground, slowly raised his head and revealed a sinister smile. “You actually forced me to use the Possession Blood Talisman. I’m definitely going to take the macroworld inside of you!”

Whoosh

The blood-red runes on Nan Sheng’s body shone brightly. They condensed into a bloody runic hand and slapped towards Zhang Ruochen.

The bloody runic hand was three meters long. It exploded with powerful divine force.

Zhang Ruochen quickly sheathed his sword to block. He then slapped out with his palm, shattering the bloody runic hand into strands of Blood Qi.

Taking this opportunity, Nan Sheng flew straight up from the ground and retreated far away. He opened his mouth and inhaled. He swallowed all the Blood Qi from the broken bloody runic hand into his stomach.

Nan Sheng said, “If I continue to fight with you like this, I’ll lose South Haven’s reputation.”

“It looks like you’ll have to use your true ability now!” Zhang Ruochen said lightly without a bit of fear.

Nan Sheng said, “You should know that the most powerful and mysterious method for the Deathkin is the Will of Death. South-Haven doesn’t teach the Path, but the spiritual power cultivation method and the cultivation of the Will of Death. The Path and the physical body are just supplementary ways of cultivation for me.”

“South-Haven’s power has always been rumored to be magical and bizarre. I’ve wanted to see it for a long time,” Zhang Ruochen said.

“As you wish.”

Nan Sheng’s eyes turned a dark maroon. Strange dark clouds of death gathered in the water and covered the ruins of the Fane. Then they suddenly surged crazily towards Zhang Ruochen.

These were dark clouds formed by the Will of Death!

The Supreme Saints in the distance had only just touched a wisp of the deathly dark cloud, and their bodies withered quickly, with their life force dissipating swiftly. They were all frightened by it and promptly retreated further away.

“The Will of Death is the natural power of the Deathkin. If Nan Sheng used it with the strength of his spiritual power, he could instantly wipe out all life on a planet. Fortunately, the arrays and Divine Marks in the Fane of Origin had blocked the Will of Death from overflowing to the outside.”

“I don’t know how powerful Nan Sheng’s spiritual power is. I’ve never seen the Will of Death so strong before.”

“As the disciple of the Seven Elders, Nan Sheng must have practiced an exquisite controlling method for the Will of Death in the South-Haven.”

...

Nan Sheng’s eyes were overcast as his body floated up involuntarily while he said, “Zhang Ruochen, I heard that your spiritual power is powerful. But can you block my Will of Death?”

...
