“You don’t dare to kill me.”
Zhang Ruochen’s voice reverberated with a smile and confidence.
“Is that so?”!!
Dense Precepts gushed out from Bai Qing’er’s fingertips and twisted into a thin, long thread.
This thread was a sharp weapon that could kill all spirits.
ROAR!
A dazzling golden light emerged behind Zhang Ruochen’s back and turned into a cloud of light like silk.
The true form of Intergold Tiger appeared. Standing in the golden cloud, the word “Inter” between its eyebrows released a mighty divine power. Even with Bai Qing’er’s cultivation, she was shocked and stopped immediately.
Her eyes were full of solemnity.
The cultivation gap between Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er was huge.
However, the cultivation gap between Bai Qing’er and Intergold Tiger was even more significant.
If not for fear of Heaven’s punishment, one breath of Intergold Tiger would have blown Bai Qing’er into a pile of bones. Even her bones might not be left behind.
Bai Qing’er put away her thread and said, “The legendary Intergold Tiger has finally revealed its true form.”
Intergold Tiger walked to Zhang Ruochen’s left and raised its huge head. It said, “If you kill him, I will kill you at all costs.”
“Aren’t you afraid of Heavenly Punishment?” Bai Qing’er asked.
Intergold Tiger said, “Heavenly Punishment may not be able to kill me, but you will definitely die if I attacked.”
Zhang Ruochen admired the beautiful woman opposite him. She could withstand the powerful divine aura of Intergold Tiger and still able to remain calm. She was indeed an Archsaint Array Master and the best cultivator under divinity.
Bai Qing’er thought for a moment and said, “What do you think of me?”
“Your talent is unparalleled in the world,” said Intergold Tiger.
Bai Qing’er said, “Then, how about I be your guide? Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation and ranking in Tome of the Divines are low. He’s not your best candidate when there’s a disaster in the future”
“No,” said Intergold Tiger.
Bai Qing’er said, “Why? Do you think Zhang Ruochen has more potential in the future?”
“No, it’s just because you offended me and I’m furious.” Intergold Tiger’s eyes stared straight at Bai Qing’er. It looked like it was holding a grudge.
Bai Qing’er had once called it a “sick cat” and spoke exceptionally arrogantly.
Intergold Tiger was very narrow-minded and always held a grudge towards her.
For this reason, Intergold Tiger promised Zhang Ruochen that as long as he fought with Bai Qing’er, he could borrow its power without limit.
There’s no tiger who doesn’t take revenge.
Zhang Ruochen suddenly realized that the tiger was still very temperamental. He could not help but want to stroke its back. However, he stopped just as his hand was about to fall. He realized the other party was not Blackie but a powerful god, so he quickly withdrew his hand.
Zhang Ruochen’s face was ashen because of his injury. He said, “Even if Intergold Tiger doesn’t interfere, you won’t be able to keep me if I wanted to leave with our current distance in strength. Let alone kill me.”
“So confident?” Bai Qing’er said.
Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er were 30 miles apart.
For a top-tier Supreme Saint, this distance was almost negligible.
They could cross it in a blink of an eye.
Zhang Ruochen calmly extended a hand and made a gesture of invitation. “You could try if you don’t believe me.”
Bai Qing’er stared at Intergold Tiger and said, “He’s the one who wants to try. You won’t have any objections if I kill him, right?”
“If you can kill him, he could only blame himself for seeking death.” Intergold Tiger seemed to be very confident in Zhang Ruochen.
They were 30 miles away. Not to mention Zhang Ruochen, even a superior like Lord Wu Yue would not be able to escape within this range.
Bai Qing’er really did not believe that Zhang Ruochen could escape from her with only the cultivation of Hundred-Shackle Realm and without the power of Intergold Tiger.
Swoosh!
A spirit rushed out of Bai Qing’er’s body, turned into a white shadow, and flew out quickly.
With her status and cultivation, she didn’t need to use her true form to kill a Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saint.
One spirit was enough.
Just like how Zhang Ruochen killed a Saint King, if he used his true form, he would overestimate the Saint King.
Whoosh
Although it was a spirit, its speed was faster than 10,000 times the speed of sound. It crossed 30 miles at lightning speed and clawed at Zhang Ruochen’s neck.
Zhang Ruochen’s neck was crushed.
But it was only an afterimage of Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen’s real body had already crossed dimensions and moved out. He appeared 800 miles away and said, “You underestimate the Scion of Time and Space by attacking with just one spirit!”
“If one isn’t enough, just a few more will do.”
Bai Qing’er thought. 800 miles away, a spirit of Bai Qing’er automatically appeared behind Zhang Ruochen and hit his back.
Zhang Ruochen immediately activated Null Time realm and did a Great Dimensional Shift again.
The purpose of activating Null Time realm was not to block Bai Qing’er’s attack but to buy time for himself to perform Great Dimensional Shift. In a fight with a superior of Bai Qing’er’s level, the winner and loser could be determined instantly.
Null Time realm could help Zhang Ruochen buy that instant time.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!
More and more spirits emerged from Bai Qing’er. There were dozens of them, and each was much more powerful than Zhang Ruochen. They had the power to kill Zhang Ruochen in one strike.
The sky was filled with flying figures. It was as if thousands of fairies in white surrounded and killed Zhang Ruochen.
However, they could not hurt Zhang Ruochen at all.
Zhang Ruochen had reached the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm. The divine force in his body was powerful, and he had obtained 0.99% of Canon of Dimension. In terms of escaping ability, few cultivators below divinity could surpass him.
“Withdraw!”
All the spirits flew back and overlapped on Bai Qing’er.
Bai Qing’er said, “I really underestimated the Scion of Time and Space’s ability to escape.”
How could Zhang Ruochen not understand Bai Qing’er’s belittlement? He did not take it to heart. He smiled and said, “If you are hunted, assassinated, and besieged all year round, you can also practice this ability. All cultivators practice immortality, but only when you live to the end can you have the last laugh.”
“Then I should be more serious!”
Bai Qing’er closed her eyes.
Zhang Ruochen had a bad premonition. He knew that Bai Qing’er was going to launch a spiritual power attack. He quickly mobilized the murderous Blood Qi in his body and injected it into Wargod Belt. Suddenly, the blood light on the belt grew stronger. It released the Divine Qi and the Wargod’s will, which condensed into a pair of enormous blood wings on Zhang Ruochen’s back.
Wargod Belt could only obtain the divine force of Wargod Bloodximius when Zhang Ruochen was attacked by the gods, thus saving his life.
However, Wargod Belt itself was also a supreme treasure, which could be used to resist spiritual power attacks.
Zhang Ruochen feared Bai Qing’er launching spiritual power attacks because spiritual power could travel thousands of miles instantly. Even if he used dimensional means, it would be difficult to escape.
Zhang Ruochen activated the Armor of the Fire God to cover his entire body and secretly activated the Heart of Truth.
Sure enough, Bai Qing’er closed her eyes, and a powerful spiritual power storm came.
The spiritual power storm was silent, but when it was used by a Supreme Saint with a spiritual power of level 69 and a half, no one under divinity would dare to take it head-on. Even the gods with weaker spiritual power would be afraid of it.
Zhang Ruochen had all kinds of defensive methods but still used Great Dimensional Shift to avoid the spiritual power storm.
“The dimension has been closed by me. How can you escape?”
Bai Qing’er opened her palm, and a shadow of a palm print 90,000 miles long appeared. It floated in the universe and was extremely shocking.
Zhang Ruochen seemed to be standing in her palm. His body was as small as dust.
The dimension was indeed frozen. It was more stable than on the dark star. Even the top Dimensional cultivators below divinity couldn’t perform Great Dimensional Shift.
But Zhang Ruochen was different now.
“Oh, but you didn’t!”
Zhang Ruochen stomped down. Dense Dimensional Inscriptions rushed out from his feet and interweaved into a dimensional teleportation array.
It was not a real dimensional teleportation array but a combination of Canon and Precept of Dimension.
Swoosh!
The dimensional teleportation array spun once, and Zhang Ruochen disappeared instantly. He was teleported 300,000 miles away.
Bai Qing’er’s eyes showed a strange look. Then she thought of something. She smiled and put away the 90,000-mile-long illusory palm print.
She then looked at Zhang Ruochen, who had flown back from the sky, “How much Canon of Dimension have you mastered?”
Zhang Ruochen knew he could not hide it from her, so he asked with a smile, “How much Canon of Origin have you mastered?”
“Well, I admit it is difficult to kill you from 30 miles away. So you better don’t get too close to me. I could kill you easily in a short distance,” Bai Qing’er said.
30 miles was a safe distance between Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er.
With this distance, Zhang Ruochen had enough time to react and avoid any of Bai Qing’er’s onslaughts.
“Are you asking me to leave?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
Bai Qing’er said, “I don’t care what your purpose is for following me, but it’s time for you to leave. There’s no sense for you to continue shadowing me.”
“Are you afraid of me?”
Zhang Ruochen walked over and entered a distance of 30 miles.
Then, he entered a distance of 10 miles.
…
He came to the opposite side of Bai Qing’er and looked at the magnificent woman up close. He said, “I said I wanted to marry you. How could I leave just like that?”
Intergold Tiger came to Zhang Ruochen’s side.
Bai Qing’er said, “You want to take back the supreme grade Divine Crystal of Origin and Tensho Compass.”
Zhang Ruochen shook his head. He said, “Why do I need Tensho Compass? What if the god of Fane of Destiny discovers it in the future? Wouldn’t that be digging my own grave? Having a divine weapon is good, but with my current cultivation, I won’t be able to use it at all. Instead, it would be a disaster.
“Fane of Destiny’s Overseer is still here. If he reports that I’m eying the divine weapon for myself, I won’t have a place in Infernal Court anymore.
“It’s useless even if I have the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin. I’m not a Master of Origin, so I can’t find Fane of Origin. Why don’t I follow you? It’ll save time and effort. Moreover, you want Canon of Origin when you go to Fane of Origin. Canon of Origin doesn’t mean much to me. I just want to find the chance to cultivate Grade one Saintwill.
“Other than that, the other treasures in Fane of Origin are not attractive to you and me.
“So our interests don’t conflict. I’m sincere about wanting to marry you. Why don’t you believe me?”
Bai Qing’er knew very well that Zhang Ruochen’s words were trying to numb her, but she couldn’t find any flaws in his words.
Zhang Ruochen was speaking facts.
Zhang Ruochen continued, “It’s a good thing if you don’t believe me and think I have bad intentions.”
“How is this good?” Bai Qing’er asked.
“Of course.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “You went to Fane of Origin in a high-profile way, not to kill, but to train yourself. Isn’t this also a kind of training if a treacherous person who would attack you at any time followed you?”
“What you said does make sense,” Bai Qing’er said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “So do you want to believe the former or the latter?”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Bai Qing’er turned into a white light and flew away.
Intergold Tiger snorted and spat out two tubes of golden mist from its nostrils. “Why did you ask her that last question? You might as well ask her where Shangguan Que is.”
Zhang Ruochen said, “You don’t understand.”
“I understand! The question you asked was a test of your weight in her heart. Whether she answered the former or the latter, at least it proved that she valued you. Whether you became lovers or sworn enemies in the future, at least Zhang Ruochen was now her number one. However, a casual response meant she did not care about your thoughts. You were still insignificant. Your self-esteem must have suffered a blow, right?” said Intergold Tiger.
Zhang Ruochen coughed twice and coughed up blood. He said, “Your thoughts are too petty!”
“Men always want to conquer excellent women to prove their excellence and strength, especially those women who have defeated them,” said Intergold Tiger.
“This idea is even more narrow-minded.”
Zhang Ruochen flew in the direction of Sevenstar Imperial Palace. His eyes became more and more serious.
Bai Qing’er was indeed a complex woman to see through. She seemed to have endless secrets. No one knew how many trump cards she had yet to use.
More importantly, no matter how Zhang Ruochen tried, it was difficult to find her weakness.
In fact, Zhang Ruochen had never planned to attack the battle between the Supreme Saints of Fane of Destiny and Bai Qing’er.
The reason why he attacked last minute was that there were only a few powerful figures below divinity who could restrain Bai Qing’er. If Xing Luo died, then one less would be left.
Besides that, there were two more essential purposes.
First, Zhang Ruochen wanted to test whether Bai Qing’er was injured by the self-detonation of Lord Wu Yue.
The facts proved that Bai Qing’er was indeed injured!
Otherwise, she would not have been repelled by Intergold Tiger and Zhang Ruochen’s attack. Moreover, she did not go after Xing Luo and the others and could not hurt Zhang Ruochen from 30 miles away.
The second purpose was to hide the fact that his injury had healed.
His injury could not be healed forever.
How could he hide it?
He could only be more seriously injured.
Zhang Ruochen’s Sea of Qi had already healed. When Bai Qing’er was fighting with the elites of Fane of Destiny, he entered Sevenstar Imperial Palace. With his control of Qiankun Realm and the help of Divine Sky-connecting Tree, he forced Seven-Armed Elder to submit temporarily, and they fought together against Bai Qing’er.
It seemed that he was more seriously injured, but it was only a physical injury. With the recovery ability of Pale Blood Soil, this injury was nothing.
Bai Qing’er was too bright. She could only be sure that Zhang Ruochen was still injured if she injured him with her own hands. Even with the help of Intergold Tiger, he would not be able to display much combat power.
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen was happy to fool Bai Qing’er. It was even better if she thought he would only run for his life.
Before the time came, he had to show his weakness to the enemy.
It was a very helpless thing!
