After spending three days in a row, Zhang Ruochen completely refined the Third Grade Divine Origin Pill. He didn’t run into any bottlenecks and successfully entered the third level of the Half-Saint Realm.

Actually, his success had everything to do with the fact that he had the Five-Elements Chaotic Body and had refined a great amount of divine blood before.

Other Half-Saints would have had much more trouble entering a new level, even if they had the Divine Origin Pill’s help.

After entering the new level, Zhang Ruochen’s saint soul grew stronger. He could utilize Spiritual Qi within thousands of miles in radius.

With my current cultivation, I can have an exhilarating fight even with a higher Half-Saint.

Zhang Ruochen raised his left hand. Activating the Holy Qi in his Sea of Qi, he sent it through his Saint Meridians and into his palm.

The five major apertures on his palm opened one after another. They began to absorb Spiritual Qi crazily, making Zhang Ruochen’s hand grow heavier. His fingers were practically like five mountains.

A low dragon roar rumbled in his arm. A golden dragon image even appeared, wrapping around his arm. One could imagine that if he punched forward, even a seventh level Half-Saint might be unable to block it.

In the end, Zhang Ruochen didn’t strike. Instead, he closed his five apertures and retracted his power. “Discipline King Haiming is right,” he muttered to himself. “Cultivating the Seven-Apertures Blood Palm is indeed beneficial to me. The power absorbed by the five apertures is enough to strengthen the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm by 20 percent. If I can open up the sixth aperture, it might even be 30 percent.”

After opening up the fifth aperture, just the Seven-Apertures Blood Palm’s basic power was strong enough to compare with a quasi-saint spell. If he could open up his sixth aperture, the technique’s power would be comparable to a true saint spell.

If a Half-Saint could cultivate a saint spell, it would definitely be a great accomplishment. It could be a hidden killer trick. After all, very few higher level Half-Saints could cultivate a type of saint spell completely.

Discipline King Haiming said that the Vampires have powerful Blood Qi inside them, so they can open their sixth and even seventh aperture. A human’s limit is the fifth aperture.

However, I’ve cultivated the Five Elements Chaotic Body. My physical body can withstand more than others. If I have the divine blood’s help, I might be able to break through a human’s limit.

Without hesitating further, Zhang Ruochen decided to try again. Thus, he took out ten drops of divine blood at once. He placed them before himself for when necessary.

First, he lifted one drop of divine blood and wrapped it with Holy Qi. Then he used the Holy Qi to suck the power into his palms. In the past, Zhang Ruochen would inject the divine blood’s power into the meridians of his arms and absorb it completely through circulation.

This time was different. He absorbed the divine blood into his hands and sealed the meridians of his arms. He doubled the Blood Qi inside his arms.

Not enough.

Zhang Ruochen continued absorbing the second drop, once again sealing the Blood Qi in his arms. Now, his arms contained three times more Blood Qi than normally.

Here, Zhang Ruochen’s arms were swollen. Various blood-red veins bulged. Thankfully, his physical body was strong. His skin, meridians, and muscles had all been tempered and could withstand this power.

Continue.

Immediately afterward, Zhang Ruochen refined a third drop. The Blood Qi in his arms was now six times stronger. Finally, his arms reached their limits.

The Seven-Apertures Blood Palm’s chant appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s mind. Pushing the Blood Qi in his arms, he formed a track according to the chant and struck his hands.

Kaboom!

Powerful Blood Qi surged out of his palms. Hundreds of feet away, a large mass of mountain trees cracked. Splinters and fallen leaves danced in the air.

Zhang Ruochen raised his arms. Looking at his palms, he laughed loudly. “Haha! Success! I’ve opened the sixth aperture!”

He’d refined a saint dragon soul in his left hand, so it was stronger. It wasn’t too damaged from opening the sixth aperture.

It was different for his right hand. It had become bloody pulp. If the Blood Qi had been stronger, it probably would’ve exploded into a cloud of blood.

It was evident how difficult it was to open up the sixth aperture. Even the Five-Elements Chaotic Body couldn’t really take it.

Of course, the little injuries were nothing. Opening the sixth aperture was great news.

I wonder if the power from my Seven-Apertures Blood Palm can go against an eighth level Half-Saint now, Zhang Ruochen thought. With the sixth aperture’s help, my Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm has probably surpassed a saint spell.

The sixth aperture couldn’t be the limit.

Zhang Ruochen felt that if he tried, he might even be able to open the seventh aperture. The prerequisite was that he had to find a saint elephant soul and refine it into his right arm. Otherwise, with his right arm’s current strength, it definitely wouldn’t be able to take the seventh aperture’s hit.

In the remaining time, Zhang Ruochen began fortifying his new level. At the same time, he continued cultivating palm and sword techniques to raise his abilities.

Only two days had passed in the outside world, but Zhang Ruochen’s abilities had skyrocketed to a new height.

Zhang Ruochen headed to Kongcheng Island and reported to Discipline King Haiming. Then he flew toward the Bottomless Abyss alone.

Before he left, Discipline King Haiming gave him a saint decree. He could activate this and escape if he ran into danger in the Nether Heavenly Palace.

…

The Bottomless Abyss was deep inside the Ancient Snow Mountain. It was wintry there and the geography was complicated. It was tens of thousands of miles deep. One couldn’t reach it if one wasn’t at least in the Fish-Dragon Realm.

Flying in the air, Zhang Ruochen looked down. The ground was filled with large mountains covered in ice. In the mass of white, they were like silver dragons sprawled on the ground.

Some of the mountains even surpassed the altitude that he was flying at. They radiated with an ancient and powerful aura, forcing one to revere them.

Zhang Ruochen sometimes heard deafening beastly roars throughout the mountains. They shook the snow in the air. It was evident that the Ancient Snow Mountain had many dangerous beasts. It wasn’t as calm as it seemed.

Three hundred miles away was a snowy peak more than 8,000 meters tall. Two figures stood in the cold. They were a middle-aged woman in black armor and a sixty-something-year-old elder.

The middle-aged woman was Su Bai. She was the sixth Banner Lord of the Nether Heavenly Palace’s first camp. She was a seventh level Half-Saint.

The old man was Zhao Shiqi. He was close to 200 years old and also a Banner Lord of the Nether Heavenly Palace’s first camp. He was a bit higher than Su Bai—he was fifth.

Su Bai’s expression was cold. “The Deity called us two to handle a second level Half-Saint. Isn’t he over-exaggerating the problem?”

Zhao Shiqi grasped a white leaf that looked like a fan. He smiled. “Gu Linfeng isn’t weak. I heard that he defeated Bai Yu, Ning Guihai and Yan Kongming by himself in the test two days ago. Now, he is a rising star in the sect. His talent and potential are second only to the Deity and Saintess. You shouldn’t underestimate him.

“When he uses the Blood God Venomous Worm, he can even produce a fifth level Half-Saint’s combat power. Plus, Discipline King Haiming must have given him a saint decree. If he runs into danger, he can totally use the saint decree to escape.”

“However, the Deity’s order is that we must kill him and not let him enter the Nether Heavenly Palace. This means that we can only have sure success if we work together.”

Su Bai rubbed her hands together in disdain. “If the Deity isn’t giving us three drops of divine blood as payment, I definitely won’t fight such a weakling.”

“In my opinion, you’re more interested in the Yuling Blood Broadsword that Gu Linfeng took from Yan Kongming, right?” Zhao Shiqi said, chuckling.

“And you aren’t?” Su Bai asked in return.

Zhao Shiqi smiled. Instead of continuing to talk, he started activating his Spiritual Power. A white Heavenly Eye appeared between his brows. He looked toward the horizon.

Half a beat later, Zhao Shiqi put the Heavenly Eye away. “He’s already flying over. Prepare to attack. We must do it quickly. It’ll be best if we can do a sneak attack and kill him with one strike.”

Zhao Shiqi didn’t know that Zhang Ruochen’s Spiritual Power was also very strong. When his Heavenly Eye glanced toward Zhang Ruochen, he’d immediately felt it.

What’s this? Someone’s using the Heavenly Eye to track me. Who is it? Zhang Ruochen was shocked.

The opponent’s Spiritual Power was even stronger than Zhang Ruochen. It should be at the 47th level. It must be a very powerful man.

How could such a powerful man appear in such a barren land?

Many evil monks of the Blood God Sect wanted to kill him and take the Yulin Blood Broadsword. Some also wanted to kill him to compete for the Banner Lord position again.

Since he knew his current situation, Zhang Ruochen naturally had to be more careful.

He maintained his speed of flying, but he activated his Holy Qi into his arm. He was ready to fight at any moment.

Zhang Ruochen abruptly felt a strong gust of cold air appear above him. It plunged down.

“Junior, die!”

Su Bai and thousands upon thousands of snowflakes flew out of the clouds at once. She struck with her broadsword, creating a hundred-meter-long red streak. This strike was as fast as lightning and powerful too.

Even a mountain could be split in half, let alone a man. However, Zhang Ruochen was well-prepared. Just as the broadsword Qi came down, his figure blurred. Using the Spatial Move, he disappeared from the spot.
