The seawater of the Blood Spring Trench was originally bright red like blood, and it only appeared pitch black because there was no light in the depths of the seabed.
“Wow!”
The golden point of light in the distance grew closer and closer, forming a silhouette.
It was a monk whose entire body radiated golden light, his figure was stout, his pace was steady, he carried a knife box on his back, and he walked slowly, like an ascetic monk who had already been walking on the seabed for thousands of years.
“It’s this monk again.”
Zhang Ruochen looked over and revealed a bitter smile.
This person was none other than the Standing Ground Monk of the Brahma Heavenly Dao.
The body of the Standing Earth Monk was as if it was forged from gold, giving off an indestructible texture. On the surface of his skin, a white Sanskrit text appeared and disappeared, constantly sinking and floating.
With every step, a ball of Buddhist Qi coalesced out from beneath his feet, transforming into a three-foot long golden lotus flower.
In total, the Standing Monk took seven steps, leaving behind seven golden lotus flowers.
From below, looking upwards, the seven golden lotus flowers, like seven bright stars, followed some kind of subtle trajectory, suspended in the black seawater, reflecting the surrounding seawater into a golden red colour.
The Standing Monk stared over towards the Wool Wreck Jiao King, folded his hands and recited a Buddha’s name, saying, “Amitabha Buddha! Woolly Wreck Jiao King, this is not the place for you to come, go back to where you came from!”
The Wool Wreck Jiao King did not expect that a monk would actually be killed halfway.
He carefully observed the past and found that there was a strange force on that one monk’s body. That force, which seemed to be very strong and very weak, gave off an erratic feeling.
It was the first time that the Wrecked Jiao King had encountered such a bizarre human.
He was wary, yet he still acted very strong, snorting coldly, “The Blood Spring Sea Trench is the territory of the Red Cloud Python Jiao Clan, this king can come and go as he wishes, who dares to tell him what to do?”
The Standing Monk shook his head and sighed, saying, “King of the Wreckless Jiao, you’ve misunderstood the Poor Monk, the Poor Monk actually did it for your own good when he asked you to leave this place. The Blood Spring Trench is an ominous place, and for you, it’s even more quite treacherous and murderous, if you don’t leave immediately, I’m afraid you’ll fall to the bottom of the trench.”
If he didn’t leave, he would fall at the Blood Spring Sea Trench?
No matter how one heard it, these words seemed very harsh.
The Wrecked Jiao King didn’t feel that there was any danger in the Blood Spring Sea Trench that he couldn’t cope with, so he naturally didn’t take the words of the Standing Earth Monk seriously.
On the contrary, the Wrecked Jiao King even felt that when the Standing Earth Monk spoke those words, he was completely threatening him, warning him.
The eyes of the Wreckage Jiao King turned cold as he said, “What an arrogant monk, with you, you also want to kill this king?”
“Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding! A poor monk never kills.”The Standing Monk tried his best to squeeze out a friendly smile and said in a very amiable manner.
Zhang Ruochen laughed, it was true that this monk never killed, however, he was a crow’s mouth who said that whoever died would die, he was simply a calamity.
It was that I wondered if this time, it would still be that accurate?
The appearance of Monk Standing Ground appeared very rigid, with a long face full of horizontal meat, like a butcher, the original friendly, amiable smile, on his face, it appeared a bit hideous.
Seeing Monk Standing Ground’s caricatured smile, the Wrecked Jiao King felt even more that the monk in front of him was rather arrogant. He was at least a Grade 6 Savage Beast level Jiao King, and a mere human actually dared to threaten him?
This breath, the Wrecked Jiao King naturally could not endure.
“Monk, this king would like to see just how strong you are?”
The Wrecked Jiao King’s legs transformed into a crimson jiao tail that was more than ten feet long. The tail swayed violently in the water, setting off a layer of swirling water waves, and the Wrecked Jiao King rushed forwards rapidly, arriving in front of the Standing Earth Monk in an instant.
His hands, simultaneously striking forward, turned into a pair of gigantic jiao claws that were more than ten metres long.
Wisps of flame, gushing out from the scales of the jiao claws, emitted a bright fiery light, and in a split second, it boiled the seawater of the surrounding hundreds of metres.
Water and fire intertwined together, covering the top of the Jiao Claw, and fiercely blasted down.
This strike struck by the Wrecked Jiao King was clearly using his true skills, and the power that erupted was another step more powerful than when he fought with Zhang Ruochen.
From this, it could be seen that in the eyes of the Wrecked Jiao King, the Standing Ground Monk was a greater threat than Zhang Ruochen, and was a truly great enemy.
The Wrecked Jiao King did not know the cultivation level of the Standing Earth Monk, but Zhang Ruochen was very clear. The cultivation level of the Standing Earth Monk had only just reached the Fish Dragon First Transformation.
Monk Standing Ground was not able to control space, so the water pressure of the sea water was also extremely oppressive to him.
In such a situation, it was simply impossible for a cultivator of the Fish Dragon First Transformation to block the attack of a Half Saint.
Even if the Standing Earth Monk had fused the golden body of the Buddha Emperor and had been transformed, with his cultivation realm, it would be impossible for him to fully explode the power of his golden body.
With such a huge difference between the two cultivations, could the Standing Ground Monk block the attack of the Wreckage Jiao King?
This monk, although his shadowy soul was still there, but, after all, he had not harmed Zhang Ruochen, so Zhang Ruochen was still worried for him when the Wreckage Jiao King attacked over.
The Standing Monk sighed, originally, he had wanted to come and dissuade the Wreckless Jiao King, but instead of quite, he had caused an even bigger misunderstanding.
At this time, there was no room for him to continue explaining, he could only meet the battle.
The Standing Monk’s hands formed a seal, and the seven golden lotuses under his feet immediately connected into a pattern. Each lotus flower, which was a knot on the pattern, transformed into a golden Buddha shadow.
“Eight Section Voodoo Formation.”
The seven Buddhist shadows plus the Standing Monk, a total of eight silhouettes, were as if they were connected as one, forming a formation.
The Eight-Part Voodoo Formation was a combined attack formation that required eight Buddhist cultivation experts to perform at the same time in order to bring out the power of the formation.
However, the Standing Monk used his Buddhist Qi to condense seven golden lotus flowers in place of the other seven.
Using only one person’s strength, he had performed the Eight Section Vermin Formation.
The Standing Earth Monk struck a palm forward, and at the same time, the other seven Buddhist shadows, also struck out with a palm at the same time.
The two forces collided together, immediately forming a storm of true qi that sent the Standing Earth Monk and the seven Buddhist shadows flying backwards, landing a hundred feet away before coming to a stop.
Although the Standing Earth Monk was knocked back by the Wool Wreck Jiao King, however, he was not injured. The claws of the Wreckage Jiao King, which struck his body, did not even break his skin.
“So powerful.”Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised.
The Standing Monk was only at the cultivation level of Fish Dragon First Transformation, and to be able to block the strike of the King of the Ursus Jiao without being injured, just based on the battle record of that duel just now, it would surely shake the world once it was spread to the Kunlun Realm.
The Wool Wreck Jiao King was also a little surprised, withdrawing his pair of Jiao claws, turning back into human palms, only to feel, a vague pain coming from his ten fingers.
Just now, his claws had clearly struck the body of the Standing Earth Monk, but it was as if it had struck a piece of metal, unable to injure the other party at all.
It was too unbelievable.
The Wrecked Jiao King looked at the Standing Earth Monk, his eyes narrowed, and he said, “I see! The strength of your fleshly body far exceeds your cultivation realm, it can be called fleshly body becoming a saint. It’s just that you don’t know how to use that force of flesh body yet, otherwise, you would have been able to slap me to death with just one palm.”
Worthy of being a king of savage beasts that had lived for thousands of years, the Wreckage Jiao King was well-informed, and with just a glance, he saw through the secrets on the Standing Earth Monk.
Only, he didn’t realise that what the Standing Earth Monk had fused was the golden body of the Buddha Emperor.
Monk Lidi gave a modest smile, “The time of cultivation of the poor monk is still short, his cultivation is shallow, and his control of power is still at a very basic stage, so naturally, he cannot be compared to the King of Jiao.”
Seeing the monk’s smirk, the Wreckage Jiao King’s heart became very irritated, and once again began to gather his power.
Since this monk had already become a saint in the flesh, he would have to take over this flesh body no matter what.
If he was able to eat and refine this fleshly body, he might be able to further his strength to the level of a Sixth Order Medium Savage Beast, or even a Sixth Order Upper Savage Beast.
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that with the strength of the Standing Monk alone, it was impossible for him to be a match for the Ursus Skeleton Jiao King. Therefore, he decisively swam over and stood at the position behind the Wrecked Jiao King, crossed his sword and said, “Wrecked Jiao King, don’t forget, there’s still me.”
Xiao Hei, who was originally hiding in the distance, suddenly, exclaimed, saying, “Zhang Ruochen, I feel a huge aura, coming from above, approaching us rapidly.”
Zhang Ruochen, the Standing Monk, and the Crow Wrecked Jiao King, had also noticed that aura.
The Wreckless Jiao King looked up and saw a crimson fire light that completely covered the sea above his head, and the entire Blood Spring Trench seemed to be on fire.
The temperature of the seawater, climbed rapidly, as hot as magma, even the Red Cloud Python Jiao of the Fish Dragon’s Third Transformation could hardly withstand that high temperature, letting out miserable cries, as if it was going to be cooked by the seawater.
“Not good, that’s the Earth Fire Qilin.”
The Wreckage Jiao King’s face changed drastically, no longer paying attention to Zhang Ruochen and the Standing Ground Monk, he let out a long roar and immediately transformed into his original body, turning into a hundred-foot-long giant jiao, rushing towards the bottom of the trench.
The Earth Fire Kirin, which evolved from the Red Bird Beast, was a Sixth Order Medium Savage Beast.
The Wrecked Jiao King was only a sixth-order lower level savage beast, and when he saw the Earth Fire Qilin, he naturally had no choice but to run for his life, pinning his hopes on escaping to the bottom of the trench and being able to dodge a bullet.
“Hurry up.”
Zhang Ruochen grabbed Little Black and immediately performed Spatial Shift, rushing towards the bottom of the trench.
The Standing Monk, who had already become a saint in flesh, erupted with a speed that was actually a few points faster than Zhang Ruochen, who had performed Spatial Shift, and rushed in front of Zhang Ruochen.
Spatial Shift did not need to consume time, however, Zhang Ruochen could only move a maximum distance of fifty feet per Spatial Shift, after which he would have to pause for a short period of time to regather his spatial power before he could continue to perform the next Spatial Shift.
It was because of this reason that for a long distance rush, Zhang Ruochen’s speed, on the contrary, did not have an advantage.
“Ow!”
A deafening Qilin cry rang out.
Above, thick seawater, pushed away by a rolling fire cloud, rushed downwards in a hurry.
If one were to look closely, they would find that at the centre of that fire cloud, a two-winged Qilin was chasing after Zhang Ruochen, getting closer and closer to him.
