Chapter 2004 - Breaking Through To The Precept Dominion Realm

Name:God Emperor Author:飞天鱼
“Boundless merits, suppress the universe!”

Both of Shang Ziyan’s hands quickly formed a series of mudras as he unleashed the secret technique of the Fane of Merits.

Suddenly the Five-colored Merit Stele flew out and became extremely huge as it hung above the sky.

A massive torrent of Merit Qi was released, permeating across the sky and locking down a space thousands of miles wide.

It was mainly because Shang Ziyan felt that Zhang Ruochen spatial techniques were very troublesome and could affect him from time to time.

Now with the Five-colored Merit Stele locking down the space within several thousand miles radius, he wanted to see how could Zhang Ruochen use any spatial techniques.

Shang Ziyan’s Cardinal Corpse stood on the top of the Five-colored Merit Stele as he looked down condescendingly at Zhang Ruochen.

Sensing the space around him becoming extremely stable, Zhang Ruochen could not help but to frown slightly. For him, this merit treasure Shang Ziyan had was a real big trouble.

Even if his was very accomplished in the Path of Space, it had become very difficult for him to rip the space apart.

Not only that, with the suppression of the Five-colored Merit Stele, even his temporal techniques were restricted, and were difficult to use.

It could only be said that the power of merits was just too arcane, as if it existed exclusively to restrain the Nine Great Eternal Paths.

“Zhang Ruochen, with you unable to use the power of space and time, I want to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve.” Shang Ziyan said lightly.

A sharp light appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes as he snorted coldly. “Shang Ziyan, you think by restraining my powers of time and space you’ll have me down for the count? You underestimate me too much then!”

As he spoke, an extremely domineering radiant aura radiated out of Zhang Ruochen’s body as both his arms shook, as a dragon and an elephant took form.

“A High-level Saint Art? I know that too.”

A smile appeared in SHang Ziyan’s eyes.

The Shang Ziyan wielding the Tower of a Thousand Temperings struck, unleashing a dark chilly aura that was completely different from Zhang Ruochen, as if he wanted to freeze the entire world in place.

With a palm strike, an endless cold Qi surged out, transforming into a ferocious beast that looked like a jackal, but it had three heads and was covered in powerful ice armor. It radiated a powerful evil Qi that was even more terrifying than Gu Tianyin’s.

For a moment, all of the precepts and power of heaven and eight within several thousand miles all violently surged into the body of the beast.

“RAAWRRRR.”

The ferocious beast let out an earth-shaking roar as a menacing glint appeared in its eyes as it rushed towards Zhang Ruochen.

“Hmmm? It’s actually a High-level Saint Art.”

Zhang Ruochen’s expression changed slightly, and could not help but to feel extremely shocked.

In his surprise, Zhang Ruochen immediately retaliated, unleashing the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike.

A dragon and an elephant flew out, each extremely massive as they unleashed a terrifying supreme Saint aura as they met the charge of the ferocious jackal.

BOOM!!

The jackal was so ferocious that even two against one, it was not at a disadvantage.

The three struggled for a while before all of them exploded, yet no one was able to gain any advantage.

“That’s… that’s the Light of the Dark Nether! Shang Ziyan had actually cultivated this High-level Saint Art to full completion!”

In an instant, a cultivator recognized the saint art that Shang Ziyan had used, and could not help but to be extremely shocked.

“The Light of the Dark Nether is extremely difficult to cultivate, and would require one to endure unimaginable pain, especially the need to refine the soul of a supreme Saint-level Netherbeast into one’s body, and that is something many Neverwither Supreme Saints cannot accomplish.”

“For the both of them to have cultivated High-level Saint Arts, since when High-level Saint Arts became that easy to cultivate?”

“It seems like Zhang Ruochen has no chance to turn things around now. With his spatial and temporal techniques being restricted, and his advantage in High-level Saint Arts also gone, how is he supposed to fight with Shang Ziyan with his Path of the Three Corpses?”



Upon seeing Shang Ziyan using the Dark Nether Palm, many cultivators were even more convinced that Shang Ziyan would win this fight. No matter how they looked at it, all of the advantages laid with Shang Ziyan.

Shang Ziyan chuckled and said. “Zhang Ruochen, what do you think of my Light of the Dark Nether? Is it weaker than your Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike?”

“Shang Ziyan, I did not expect you to have your cards hidden so deeply. You had never used the Light of the Dark Nether before.” Zhang Ruochen said solemnly.

Since he had regarded Shang Ziyan as his nemesis, Zhang Ruochen had naturally went to investigate the information about Shang Ziyan, yet he had no idea that Shang Ziyan had cultivated the Dark Nether Palm.

Shang Ziyan said. “The Dark Nether Palm was prepared specially for you. So I of course won’t use it on someone else. Plus, no one else is qualified enough to make me use the Dark Nether Palm.

In fact, Shang Ziyan had only just cultivated the Dark Nether Palm not too long ago. The reason why he went to the Underworld in the Eastern Region was to actually cultivate this High-level Saint Art palm technique.

As he said that, Shang Ziyan struck again, using all of his might and unleashed the Light of the Dark Nether once again.

Suddenly the ferocious beast formed by the frigid evil Qi appeared once again as it leapt up into the air and a large number of ice crystals appeared within a radius of thousands of miles, causing the temperature to sharply drop.

Anyone within this area could not help but to feel like they have fallen straight into an ice cave.

The frigid evil Qi was just too terrifying that Zhang Ruochen had some frost forming over his body.

Zhang Ruochen’s gaze sharpened as he quickly mobilized the radiant Yang Qi inside him that was hundreds of thousand times stronger than that of ordinary people. His entire person was now like a blazing sun, melting everything away.

A massive azure dragon flew out of Zhang Ruochen’s palm and was extremely corporeal as it was covered in a layer of crimson flames, unleashed by the Gauntlet and the Armguards of the Fire and.

The Azure Dragon also did its best to draw upon the precepts and power of heaven and earth within a radius of thousands of miles as its aura continued to grow as it fought against the ferocious beast.

BAAMM!!

After a fierce battle, the ferocious beast was actually torn apart by the azure dragon, being reduced into ice crystals as it rained down below.

While the azure dragon was also damaged, it still retained most of its devastating power and instantly struck Shang Ziyan.

Shang Ziyan was originally gleeful, thinking that he could use the Light of the Dark Nether to gain the upper hand, but who knew that this situation happened instead.

BAAAMMM!!!

Shang Ziyan, who had used the Light of the Dark Nether, was sent flying by the azure dragon.

The power carried by the azure dragon was extremely powerful, and blasted Shang Ziyan several hundred feet away.

And that layer of crimson flame stuck itself onto Shang Ziyan.

Even when Shang Ziyan released a frigid Qi with all his might, he could not extinguish the flame in an instant.

By the time the flames went out, Shang Ziyan was already soot-ridden, and the robe he was wearing were quite badly burnt.

“How could this be?”

Shang Ziyan was furious, unable to accept this outcome.

“They were both High-level Saint Art, how was Shang Ziyan’s Light of the Dark Nether weaker than Zhang Ruochen’s Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike?”

“It should be that Shang Ziyan had not cultivated the Light of the Dark Nether to full completion. After all it is a high-level saint art, and its cultivation is extremely difficult.”

“That is to say, even after having his spatial and temporal techniques restricted, Zhang Ruochen could still turn the tide?”



Seeing Shang Ziyan taking damage, all of the spectators were surprised.

The battle between Zhang Ruochen and Shang Ziyan so far had made it impossible for anyone to have a proper grasp of the situation, and made it difficult for them to predict the outcome.

“How could I lose to Zhang Ruochen?”

Shang Zixuan clenched his fists, his eyes burning with anger.

Immediately, Shang Ziyan activated his technique as the fire-element saint Qi in his body surged out, and released hundreds of thousands of precepts of flames he had cultivated out, and infused all of them into the Bloodbairn.

With a swing of the Bloodbairn, a red cloud of fire appeared in its wake as a powerful divine power gushed out.

Tens of thousands of infants appeared, looking extremely real as they let out piercing screams and exuding monstrous Qi of hatred.

At the same time, the Shang Ziyan had was hurt once again roused his ice-attribute precepts as he unleashed another Light of the Dark Nether with all his might.

Two Shang Ziyans, standing in two different positions, simultaneously launched terrifying attacks.

With a solemn expression, Zhang Ruochen opened all 144 acupoints in his body, unleashing a torrent of saint Qi.

Five hundred thousand precepts of the palm gathered in both of his hands as they combined with the Supreme Saint-level dragon soul and elephant soul.

“RAWWWRRRR!”

Following an earth-shaking roar of dragons and elephants, a dragon and elephant that almost filled the entire skyline appeared, unleashing a majestic aura it their wake.

Immediately afterwards, the soul of the sword will formed before zhang Ruochen, formed out of seven hundred and fifty thousand precepts of the sword as it held the Ancient Abyssal Blade, and unleashed an exquisite swordsmanship.

BOOM!!

The Light of Dark Nether was instantly torn apart by the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike as their powers were not on the same level at all.

And the sword soul wielded the Ancient Abyssal Blade and shatterd all of the infant phantoms before slashing a sword light at Shang Ziyan.

Even when Shang Ziyan used the Bloodbairn to block in time, he was still sent flying by the slash as he spat out blood, and was obviously wounded.

On the other side, after the dragon and elephant ripped the ferocious beast apart, they crashed into the other Shang Ziyan.

Shang Ziyan tried his best to rouse the Tower of a Thousand Temperings, but the result was that he and the tower were sent flying by the impact.

DUSSHH!

Shang Ziyan shuddered as he spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Even when two on one, Ziyan is no match for Zhang Ruochen.” On the warship, Si Han showed a look of absolute disbelief.

Not only him, even King Daxi who was watching the battle was also shocked. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ruochen was so strong that even Shang Ziyan was about to be defeated.

Whoosh!

The three Shang Ziyan suddenly merged into one.

After the fusion, the aura exuded by Shang Ziyan was even more powerful.

Shang Ziyan laughed in fury as he said. “Master was right, Zhang Ruochen, you are my nemesis. So, you must die!”

As he said that, Shang Ziyan took out a jade bottle, and swallowed all of the strange liquid inside it.

“Hmm?”

Zhang Ruochen gaze sharpened as he grew a little more cautious in his heart.

“By drinking the Earthen Soul Fluid, Ziyan finally intends to break through to the realm of Precept Dominion.” Si Han’s eyes could not help but lit up.

Not too long ago, he had entered the underworld with Shang Ziyan and killed a powerful Ghost King for this Earthen Soul Fluid.

The Earthen Soul Fluid possesses miraculous effects, as long as one cultivates to the peak of the Greater Precept-World-realm and drink it, one could quickly culminate their Precept Dominion.

After Shang Ziyan got his hand on the fluid, he was not in a hurry to consume it. He originally planned to accumulate more and when he really had reached his limit, to drink the Earthen Soul Liquid to culminate the strongest possible Precept Dominion.

However, Zhang Ruochen’s strength was just too powerful, and forced Shang Ziyan to change his mind. As long as he breaks through his cultivation base during battle, he could gain massive power to crush Zhang Ruochen.

The effect of the Earthen Soul Fluid could be said to be immediate.

As soon as Shang Ziyan drank it, more then ten million saint path precepts surged out of his body like a breached dam as they quickly intertwined with one another using a special precept.

In almost an instant, Shang Ziyan had managed to culminate his Precept Dominion, and stepped into the Precept Dominion-realm.

For a moment, the saint Qi in the realm all surged violently as they rushed into Shang Ziyan’s body in a frenzy, causing his aura to steadily rise.
