Chapter 1861: Contest of Saint Aspects

“What wager?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Xian Gongming said, “The Blood Wasp Ashuran King must have already entered Luoshui. If he comes to the Nine Carols Star, the loser of this battle must take the vanguard.”

Everyone knew how powerful the Blood Wasp Ashuran King’s cultivation was, and his danger rating was level seven. Whoever took the vanguard was in danger of dying.

What sort of wager was this?

They clearly wanted Zhang Ruochen dead.

Zhang Ruochen pondered for a bit and nodded. “This is a good idea, there must be someone to take the vanguard.”

Xian Gongming glanced at the Dizu Crown Prince, as the glint of glee that his ploy was successful flashed in his eyes.

Li Miaohan saw that both Xian Gongming and the Dizu Crown Prince harbored ill intentions, and she spoke out. “Brother, don’t you know that senior Xian Gongming cultivates the ‘Fortune of Heaven and Earth’ technique, and have cultivated two great Saint Aspects?”

Xian Gongming seized the advantage and smiled. “A gentleman shouldn’t go back on his word. For a master like brother Ruohan, you aren’t going back against yours, right?”

“Twin Saint Aspects.”

Zhang Ruochen said gently as he then smiled. “Of course not.”

“Brother,” Li Miaohan said.

Zhang Ruochen said calmly. “Don’t worry, it’s just a friendly duel, and even if I lose to senior Xian Gongming, it’s nothing shameful.”

“This guy, can’t he see that this is a trap?”

Li Miaohan felt that she could not see through Zhang Ruochen. It stands to reason that he was not an irrational person, but dueling Saint Aspects against Xian Gongming meant certain defeat.

Zhang Ruochen, Xian Gongming, and the rest flew away from the third divine river and came to a vast wilderness on the Nine Carols Star.

The ground was made out of sturdy jade. It was barren and spanned hundreds of miles, making it a good place for a duel.

Li Miaohan had already sent a message to Fairy Tianchu and stood worriedly on the outskirts of the wilderness. While she and Zhang Ruochen had only known each other for less than a day, yet she was so concerned about his safety, and even Li Miaohan found that a little baffling.

“Have I really taken him as an older brother?” she said to herself.

The Dizu Crown Prince walked to Li Miaohan’s side and smiled. “Miss Miaohan, you don’t need to worry about your brother too much. Xian Gongming knows his limits, and will not go any further.”

At the center of the wilderness, Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged as he closed his eyes.

Whoosh!!

From his back, a dense stream of sword path precepts flew out of his body and turned into a Saint Sword measuring tens of feet long.

The Saint sword floated above his head and radiated Saint Light.

A large amount of Sword Qi was formed and flew around Zhang Ruochen and the Saint Sword.

“He’s actually a sword cultivator, and have cultivated a sword aspect” Xian Gongming put way his contempt.

A sword cultivator had the strongest offensive power against someone of the same realm.

The attack himself of a sword aspect was naturally quite terrifying and was by no means comparable to any ordinary Saint visages.

Of course, Xian Gongming was not afraid at all, as he stood at the top of a rocky hill, with his arms above his head, shouting, “Heavenly Aspect!”

Saint Path Precepts gushed out from the top of Xian Gongming’s head like rain, and rushed into the air, transforming into a dragon horse. The Saint Path fluctuations emitted by the dragon horse caused the atmosphere of the Nine Carols Star to gently shudder.

“Earthly Aspect.”

At Xian Gongming’s feet, a giant green tortoise the size of a hill formed, with a large number of mysterious leylines flowing on its back.

Zhang Ruochen and Xian Gongming were both first-class elites, and after the two released their Saint visages, almost all of the cultivators on the Nine Carols Star sensed it.

Some of the cultivators, due to not finding any opportunities, rushed over to the place where the two were facing off.

The Dizu Crown Prince was worried that Zhang Ruochen would not honor his word after defeat, and he said to the cultivators who came, “The duel between Li Ruohan and Xian Gongming is not just a simple duel. Whoever loses will be the first to face the Blood Wasp Ashuran King. In any case, both are men of courage, and is admirable.”

“For someone to duel Xian Gongming with Saint Aspects, isn’t this asking for trouble?”

“Don’t say that, didn’t you notice that person as a sword-shaped aspect.”

“So what if he has the sword aspect? Can he beat Xian Gongming’s Aspects of Heaven and Earth?”

“Who cares who wins, when the Blood Wasp Ashuran King comes, it is a good thing to have someone to lead the vanguard.

Just as everyone was discussing, Zhang Ruochen controlled the sword aspect, and transformed it into a meteor-like path, as it flew and slash at the dragon horse in the sky.

“You think you can gain the advantage by striking first?” Xian Gongming sneered.

Booom!

The dragon horse flying in the air spat out a beam of light and clashed against the sword-shaped Saint Aspect.

As expected of one of the twelve Gongmings of the Shentian Sect, he only needed a single heaven aspect to resist the attack of the sword aspect.

On the ground, the giant green tortoise crawled toward Zhang Ruochen. Although it was very slow, it was able to cross the distance of hundreds of meters with every step.

Li Miaohan said, “Isn’t this a duel of aspects? Why is he attacking the real body?”

The Dizu Crown Prince smiled. “It is indeed a duel of Saint Aspects, but if your brother’s Saint Aspect cannot block Xian Gongming’s aspects and his life is threatened by the aspect, he will lose!”

“Miss Miaohan, don’t worry, it’s only a duel. Xian Gongming only wants to win. He will not really kill your brother.”

Zhang Ruochen looked at the dust clouds before him. In the clouds of dust, the silhouette of the giant green tortoise appeared, and it was closing in on him.

“Return.”

Zhang Ruochen held a sword finger and wanted to recall the sword aspect.

However, the dragon horse in the air suddenly transformed into a giant dragon that was dozens of miles long, and it actually entangled the sword aspect.

The scales of the giant dragon were like they were made of Saint Iron, and no matter how the sword aspect tried to escape, it could not break free.

Xian Gongming laughed out loud. “Young Master Ruohan, your cultivation does not seem to be very high, and even your sword aspect did not unleash much power. It seems like even Crone Qushan would have moments of error in judgment.”

Zhang Ruochen was an Eight-step Saint King, while Xian Gongming had reached the realm of Greater Precept-World.

The Saint Path Precepts that Xian Gongming had cultivated were many times more than Zhang Ruochen. The more precepts integrated into the Saint Aspect, the power that the aspect could unleash would naturally be stronger.

What’s more, Xian Gongming was no ordinary cultivator of the Greater Percept-World, and his strength was not beneath Tian Chen. A powerhouse of the Precept Domain may not necessarily be his match.

Seeing that the giant green tortoise was about to reach Zhang Ruochen, a satisfied smile appeared on the Dizu Crown Prince’s face, and he said, “It looks like your brother should be surrendering soon!”

Voosh!

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light burst out of Zhang Ruochen’s body.

The eyes of the Dizu Crown Prince was so dazzled by the light and only heard the deafening roar of a dragon and the wail of the elephant from the direction where Zhang Ruochen was.

By the time he opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find that a dragon and an elephant had appeared before Zhang Ruochen.

The golden dragon wrapped around the giant elephant and collided with the giant green tortoise.

A vast clamor rang out, and clearly, no one had expected Zhang Ruochen to actually have a second Saint Aspect.

Li Miaohan’s eyes lit up as her lips curled. “No wonder he dared to offer Xian Gongming a duel. It turns out that he actually has this hidden hand. This way, it won’t be easy for Xian Gongming to win.”

Xian Gongming’s gaze became a few degrees colder, saying, “So, it turned out that you have two Saint Aspects. Unexpected, but if you only have these many abilities, defeat still awaits you.”

“Of course not.”

Zhang Ruochen smiled, as a third Saint Aspect rushed out of his body.

The third aspect was the aspect of the fist, and it transformed into a divine river tens of miles long as it flew in the air, and let out the sound of flowing water, which was no different from a real river.

What surprised Zhang Ruochen was with the emergence of the divine river, the water vapors on the Nine Carols Star were converging madly, and making it even stronger.

Booom!

The divine river transformed into an overwhelming torrent, and crashed against the body of the giant green tortoise, pushing it back with the force.

The force of the torrent was not diminished as it gushed toward Xian Gongming’s real body.

“Three Saint Aspects. He sure is a deep schemer and has been plotting against me since the beginning.”

The fortunes of battle suddenly changed.

Now it was the Dizu Crown Prince’s turn to get worried as he squeezed his hands tightly. If Xian Gongming was defeated, not only would Xian Gongming’s reputation be in tatters, it was also a severe slap to him.

Li Miaohan felt an unverbalized joy in her heart as she said, “Your Royal Highness, this is not right, no? Even if he was plotting, you lot were also plotting against my brother. However, he is much smarter than you, and you might have your scheme backfire against you.”

“Miss Miaohan, your words should be kept for later. The outcome is still difficult to tell,” the Dizu Crown Prince said.

Sure enough, the battle in the wilderness changed again.

The dragon flying in the air dragged the sword aspect and turned into a beam of light as it rushed towards Zhang Ruochen’s real body.

For Zhang Ruochen and Xian Gongming at this moment, whoever defeats the opponent’s true body first wins.

Due to the green tortoise blocking it, the rush of the divine river was not fast, but the beam of light formed by the dragon and the sword aspect was about to strike Zhang Ruochen’s true body.

“Amazing, amazing. As expected of Xian Gongming, for you to force me to use my trump card,” Zhang Ruochen said in awe.

“What? He still has cards to play?!”

“No… could it be, a fourth Saint Aspect?”

“Impossible, that would be too abnormal.”

As if to confirm their guess, a thousand-foot-tall golden body rushed out from Zhang Ruochen’s body, like a giant god-king looking at the ground beneath his feet.

It was the Saint Aspect of the Immovable Wisdom King.

The Immovable Wisdom King’s aspect could also be called Zhang Ruochen’s true aspect. It looked the same as his real body, and the aura it exuded was much, much stronger than the sword-shaped sword aspect, dragon-elephant-shaped palm aspect, and the divine river-shaped fist aspect.

The Immovable Wisdom King’s aspect stretched out a big golden hand, and like the palm of a Buddha, directly grabbed the flying dragon.

Boooom!

The Immovable Wisdom King’s aspect stepped forward before the giant green tortoise, and with a fist, it easily crushed the tortoise into the ground.

Xian Gongming was so shocked that he had to means to respond, as he looked up, only to see that the aspect of the Immovable Wisdom King was standing before him, staring at him as if he was an ant.

This was a duel of Saint Aspects and not a real confrontation.

At this point, Xian Gongming was naturally completely defeated by Zhang Ruochen.
