Chapter 1755: Space Exquisite Ball
The power of the Flame God Gloves was completely utilized.
The fist way rules entwined with each other like a cobweb. It looked like an ordinary fist, but it wielded flame clouds larger than palaces.
Which led to cracking sounds in the space.
Gong Ziyan was nowhere near as fast as Zhang Ruochen when it came to close-distance battles. Even though he was a seventh-step saint king, he still couldn’t dodge it.
However, the fist force became slower when it was only thirty feet away from Gong Ziyan, which gave him some time to form defense against that.
Gong Ziyan wielded a circular shield to clash with Zhang Ruochen’s fist.
Boom!
The exploding fist force shook Gong Ziyan’s body, knocking him more than ten miles away, wrecking the ground.
The shield he had in his hand was an ancient supreme saint weapon with tremendous defense power. It could deflect power and switch the power to the side.
Even so, Gong Ziyan’s palms were still in extreme pain.
And his hand was slit, bleeding saint blood.
“He’s only a fourth-step saint king. How did he get so strong?” Gong Ziyan was sure that Zhang Ruochen must’ve hidden his real cultivation.
Little did he know was that Zhang Ruochen had spent a lot of time practicing his fist way and body strength.
Gong Ziyan was only superior to Zhang Ruochen when it came to cultivation, yet Zhang Ruochen was way stronger than him in body strength and martial way.
Zhang Ruochen looked a bit upset and thought, Damn. Gong Ziyan has a Time and Space Agate which can slow down time within thirty feet away from him and form a mini chaotic space.
If it weren’t for the Time and Space Agate, Zhang Ruochen might’ve seriously injured Gong Ziyan.
Gong Ziyan took out eight Space Exquisite Balls and threw them out. They floated in eight different locations, spinning and turning the space into whirlpools, chaotic.
Any monk who stepped into the whirlpool formed by the eight Space Exquisite Balls would be suppressed by the power.
After using the trump card, Gong Ziyan yelled, “What’s your cultivation, Zhang Ruochen?”
“You don’t deserve to know.”
Zhang Ruochen performed spatial move and showed up across from Gong Ziyan. He opened his Eight-dragon Umbrella and wielded eight golden dragons, attacking him.
Howl!
The golden dragons emanated thick and overwhelming saint forces.
After entering the space whirlpool, the eight golden dragons started to spin around the whirlpool.
Gong Ziyan smiled and said, “With the power of the eight Space Exquisite Balls, none of your attacks will work here. I’d usually only use Space Exquisite Balls when I’m fighting a ninth-step saint king. You should be flattered that I’m using this to fight you!”
Suddenly, Gong Ziyan wielded the giant space whirlpool and ascended, rushing toward Zhang Ruochen.
It swept away the mud and stones on the ground, and he flew and spun quickly, making shrill noises.
The space became dark and glum.
The eight Space Exquisite Balls were a set of incredible space valuables. Zhang Ruochen felt a tremendous pressure, and he would be at a huge disadvantage if he was sucked into the space whirlpool even if he was a space manipulator.
The phantoms of a Luan and a phoenix showed up under Zhang Ruochen’s feet, retreating.
“How dare you flee?”
Gong Ziyan manipulated the power of space, and the eight golden dragons flew out of the whirlpool, attacking Zhang Ruochen.
Boom!
Boom!
…
The eight forces hit the ground, making pits that looked like an abyss, dismantling the earth.
To others, Gong Ziyan had an absolute upper hand and had given Zhang Ruochen no place to escape. It seemed he could suppress Zhang Ruochen in no time.
Which was why all the saint kings from Heaven Field were encircling the monks from Kunlun’s Field instead of helping Gong Ziyan.
Even Nine Heavenly Maiden reckoned that Zhang Ruochen was in grave danger.
After getting back her silver kitchen knife, she rushed toward the battlefield where Zhang Ruochen and Gong Ziyan were fighting, wielding a flood of Divine Fire Jingmie.
She had obtained Divine Fire Jingmie from the inheritance of the Ice and Fire Phoenix, and the fire in her body was very close to official level as she kept absorbing the inheritance power.
“You’ve overestimated yourself.”
Gong Ziyan pointed his finger forward, and a Space Exquisite Ball flew out, penetrating the fiery cloud like a piece of paper.
A space shock ripple flew out of the Space Exquisite Balls and hit Nine Heavenly Maiden.
Nine Heavenly Maiden wielded Saint Book Ruzu, and the characters flew out of the book, clashing with the space ripples.
“She warded it off!” Gong Ziyan was shocked.
Nine Heavenly Maiden drew back hundreds of feet before she could balance herself. She then dissolved that power using the power of Saint Book Ruzu.
But then, two more Space Exquisite Balls flew out.
The three Space Exquisite Balls kept spinning, clashing with Saint Book Ruzu, and the power could rival that of three stars hitting each other.
Cough!
Nine Heavenly Maiden spit out blood and flew away like a kite being cut from its string, and her organs and meridians were injured.
She kneeled on the ground with one knee and kept bleeding. “He’s too powerful. Gong Ziyan using Space Exquisite Balls can rival a ninth-step saint king. Even if I team up with Zhang Ruochen, we’re still way weaker…”
Gong Ziyan’s main target was Zhang Ruochen. After getting rid of Nine Heavenly Maiden, he dashed toward Zhang Ruochen again. “Don’t you have a space true treasure, Zhang Ruochen? Or is your space true treasure still in the Godly Palace and you can’t get it out?”
Zhang Ruochen kept retreating and dodged the space attacks from Gong Ziyan.
“Aren’t you the Time and Space Descendant? Why aren’t you using the space power to fight me? What’s the point of retreating?” Gong Ziyan had suppressed Zhang Ruochen completely and kept laughing.
Zhang Ruochen stopped walking and took out a purple godly stone. “I don’t need space power to fight you.”
“What did you say?”
Gong Ziyan was dismayed.
“I said, that you’re not qualified to force me to use space power.”
Whoosh!
The purple godly stone gleamed with blazing light, turning into a towering godly mountain and looking transparent. It looked like it was made of divine crystal.
The space around the godly mountain was frozen.
Suddenly, the eight Space Exquisite Balls floating around Gong Ziyan fell to the ground.
The space whirlpool also dissipated.
“What did he…”
Gong Ziyan was dazed and stared at Zhang Ruochen.
He would’ve never thought that a space manipulator would freeze the space. It was like cutting off one of his arms.
As Gong Ziyan was about to pick up the Space Exquisite Balls, Zhang Ruochen dived, riding the Golden Dragon Carriage and striking him.
Gong Ziyan had to give up the Space Exquisite Balls, and he moved to the right and wielded his palms at the same time.
Sizzle!
The Abyss Ancient Sword with Sword Way Xuangang was invincible. It broke Gong Ziyan’s palm power and left a long scar on his chest.
Gong Ziyan was incensed seeing the saint blood gushing out of his body.
“What? Is this how weak you are as a seventh-step saint king without space power?” Zhang Ruochen rode the Golden Dragon Carriage back, holding the Abyss Ancient Sword.
“Don’t you dare be smug. I’m a seventh-step saint king after all. I can crush you with my cultivation alone.”
Gong Ziyan could tell that Zhang Ruochen was indeed a fourth-step saint king, and that he wasn’t hiding his cultivation. Otherwise, he would’ve been killed by Zhang Ruochen instead of only suffering a flesh wound.
“Ocean and Cloud Palm.”
Thick saint Qi gushed out of Zhang Ruochen’s body, and more than ten thousand palm way rules flowed out of both of his arms. The tumbling palm power shook the space around them.
Only a seventh-step saint king could mobilize more than twenty thousand palm way rules at the same time.
As for Zhang Ruochen, he hadn’t refined two thousand palm way rules yet, and he would definitely be defeated. It was the fundamental gap between their cultivations.
“Didn’t expect you to have practiced a saint-spell-level palm technique,” said Zhang Ruochen.
Gong Ziyan smiled confidently, “I don’t think it’s difficult to suppress you with this palm technique.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t answer, but he still remained calm.
Just as Gong Ziyan had mobilized his saint Qi to the limit, he suddenly felt extremely weak as if he was a rubber ball losing all its air, feeling more and more feeble.
“How did that happen?”
Gong Ziyan’s face paled. His legs shook, and he couldn’t stand up straight.
Zhang Ruochen carved a time print on the Abyss Ancient Sword. Although he also sliced Gong Ziyan slightly with his sword, that time print took away one hundred years of his life.
Poof!
Zhang Ruochen then cut off Gong Ziyan’s right hand.
Gong Ziyan yelled in agony, and his wrist bled like hell.
Poof!
He then wielded his sword again, cutting off his other hand.
Gong Ziyan tried to run away from the godly palace while yelling, “What did you do to me, Zhang Ruochen?”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t say anything. He kept chasing Gong Ziyan in the Golden Dragon Carriage with murderous Qi spreading. Gong Ziyan was terrified, struggling to survive.
The saint kings from Heaven Field were all terrified as the situation was turned upside down so quickly.
Gong Ziyan had been at an absolute advantage, but now, his hands were cut off and was being forced to run like a total loser.
However, Zhang Ruochen didn’t rush to kill him. Instead, he kept chasing him.
Gong Ziyan was in a state of desperation.
Nine Heavenly Maiden was dazed as well, as she thought she was hallucinating. “Zhang Ruochen is just a fourth-step saint king. How did he crush a space manipulator who’s a seventh-step saint king? Are all nine heavenly maidens combined still weaker than him?”
