God Emperor

Zhang Ruochen did not know how long he had been asleep. It seemed that 10,000 years had passed. He finally woke up.

He rose from the ground and sat. His mind was a jumbled mess and a blur. His body appeared to have transformed into something else. For a long time, his thoughts could not be brought together.

Zhang Ruochen wondered, 'Who... Who am I?

'Where am I?'

...

After sitting quietly for a long time, Zhang Ruochen's memories finally came together.

But his memory only stopped at the moment when he was talking to Yan Zhexian... No, it was the moment when he was talking to the Madre Bloody Shadow.

What happened after that?

He seems to recall that he and Yan Zhexian were kissing each other. They kissed each other's necks passionately.

'How was that possible?'

Zhang Ruochen frowned as he wondered. He could not calm down for a long time.

Could it be that he could no longer control his Yang Qi?

Otherwise, how could he kiss Yan Zhexian on the neck?

Zhang Ruochen could not help but touch his neck. He felt a faint pain.

However, the blood vessels bitten by Yan Zhexian had long healed. There was no scar.

Zhang Ruochen sensed something. He lowered his head and saw Yan Zhexian.

One had to know that they could only bring one weapon when they entered the Battlefield of Celestial-Hunting, so they were not wearing sacred robes or raiments. For two Supreme Saints, if something happened that was out of their control, their attires would be destroyed.

Yan Zhexian was very fair. She looked like she was made of divine jade.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at her and immediately looked away.

There was nothing much to see. Women were all the same.

However, Zhang Ruochen's gaze quickly fell on Yan Zhexian again. He couldn't look away.

Yan Zhexian's exquisite and suffocating figure curled up in his lower abdomen. She looked like she was five or six months pregnant.

Zhang Ruochen was a calm person, but at that moment, his eyes turned cold and he could not help but form a palm strike.

WHOOSH!

Divine fire scourged in his palm.

Finally, he withdrew his palm, he muttered to himself sadly, "Zhang Ruochen, you are really too weak. The so-called callousness and so-called ruthlessness are all faked. When you really need to kill decisively, you can't do it."

Zhang Ruochen knew very well that this ill-fated relationship with Yan Zhexian should not exist.

Although it was just an ill-fated relationship, he actually had a child.

If Zhang Ruochen let Yan Zhexian live and let the child be born, he would have had endless troubles in the Infernal Court. This was even more troublesome than having Chi Kunlun and Chi Kongyue.

The best way was to kill Yan Zhexian and the fetus in her belly decisively to prevent all this from happening.

Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen really could not kill his own flesh and blood.

Even if the child's mother hated him to the bone.

Even if he hated the baby's mother to the bone.

He could not do it. He just could not strike his child.

'God's will is playing tricks on me. Why would I have such a relationship with her? Could it be that the gods of Infernal Court deliberately set a trap for me?' Zhang Ruochen wondered.

Zhang Ruochen tried hard to recall, but he could not remember why he and Yan Zhexian kissed each other on the neck. He could not remember what happened after the kiss.

"Maybe this child is not mine," said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to slap himself as soon as he had this thought. A man could be promiscuous and amorous, but he couldn't avoid responsibility or refuse to accept it.

'Zhang Ruochen, your ambition is to break away from the situations of all the worlds and establish a new law and order. Now, what is in front of you is only a small problem, a very tiny problem.' Zhang Ruochen thought.

After a fierce psychological struggle, Zhang Ruochen stood up calmly, took out a robe, and put it on for Yan Zhexian.

Then, Zhang Ruochen looked around.

This was a 12-meters-high, 39-meters-long, and 18-meters-wide enclosed space.

In this space, a dense mist and colorful light were flowing around.

Zhang Ruochen and Yan Zhexian should be in the sarcophagus.

At the bottom of the sarcophagus, there were numerous hard white roots. They grew close to the sarcophagus and extended up the stone wall, passing through the sarcophagus lid.

'Are they the roots of the Madre Bloody Shadow?' Zhang Ruochen pondered.

Zhang Ruochen jumped up and hit the top of the stone lid with his palm.

BOOM!

The earth-shattering sound kept echoing in the sarcophagus.

Zhang Ruochen slumped to the ground. His arm was in a lot of pain. In disbelief, he looked up.

How could he not open a coffin covered with one palm with his current physical strength?

Fortunately, he had only used a small amount of power. If he had used all of his strength, the recoil could have hurt him. It meant he had used all of his strength and struck himself.

"This is bad," said Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen rushed to Yan Zhexian like lightning. He put his wrist on the ground and leaned his head against her belly. He listened carefully with a solemn expression.

The explosion of the palm just now was so shocking. The rebounding force was so powerful. The baby was still in the early stages. How could the baby withstand such an impact?

Zhang Ruochen blamed himself. He had not been thinking properly!

Fortunately, the baby's heartbeat was still normal and its vitality was still strong.

Zhang Ruochen let out a long sigh of relief.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen sensed something. He retreated faster and stood straight in the other corner of the sarcophagus. He put his hands behind his back and exuded a cold aura.

Yan Zhexian opened her eyes and slowly sat up.

Yan Zhexian's current state was not much better than Zhang Ruochen's. She only had a vague impression of what had happened before she fainted.

A moment later, Yan Zhexian felt something in her belly. She also noticed Zhang Ruochen, who was standing in the distance. Then she woke up suddenly.

A Supreme Saint-level figure was indeed not an ordinary woman. She did not scream or cry.

Yan Zhexian was more decisive than Zhang Ruochen. She slapped her stomach.

Zhang Ruochen's mouth corners twitched. In his eyes, there was a flash of rage. He was about to launch an attack.

Something strange happened.

The baby in her belly seemed to sense danger. It released a streak of blood-red divine light and bounced Yan Zhexian's falling palm back.

Yan Zhexian's hand was bloody and mangled.

"Such vigorous divine power. This is a natural Divine Fetus," said Zhang Ruochen. He was overjoyed.

Yan Zhexian's eyes were red. She wanted to strike a second time.

Zhang Ruochen's anger grew. He couldn't believe Yan Zhexian would be so ruthless towards her own flesh and blood.

"This child has gathered all the divine power and spiritual Qi of the Madre Bloody Shadow after her death. You can't kill her. Why don't you let me try?"

Tap Tap

Zhang Ruochen walked over step by step. He pretended to take out a sword from the Violet Gourd.

Zhang Ruochen thought, 'It was too dangerous!

'I had to get close to her first and suppress her by surprise.'

Yan Zhexian did not strike the second palm because she felt the heartbeat of the baby in her belly. She was a girl and had a life. She was kicking gently and full of vitality. Moreover, she had never felt so close before.

Although this feeling of flesh and blood being connected was only for a moment, she already knew that she could not do it anymore.

There was love at first sight, but the love between a mother and her child was much deeper. Even if she only felt the baby move slightly, she couldn't bear the thought of losing it.

'Yan Zhexian, you are of the Yanluo clan. How could you become so weak? The child in your belly is Zhang Ruochen's son. Are you really going to give birth to her?' Yan Zhexian wondered.

Yan Zhexian had an answer in her heart. She took a deep breath, raised her head, and stared at Zhang Ruochen who was holding a sword. She yelled, "Don't you dare! If you dare to kill her, I will self-detonate my Sainthood Source and perish with you."

Zhang Ruochen was shocked.

Zhang Ruochen thought, 'Yan Zhexian, you have changed so fast!

'One moment, you want to kill your child, and the next moment, you want to protect your child with your life.'

Zhang Ruochen wanted to make sure that Yan Zhexian wouldn't attack the baby again, so he said coldly, "I can't leave this bastard alive. She'll become a shackle in my heart and a stumbling block on my path of cultivation. I must kill her."

Zhang Ruochen was full of killing intent. His eyes turned bloodthirsty.

Yan Zhexian said resolutely, "Zhang Ruochen, you heartless, cold-blooded monster. No wonder you could kill Supreme Saint Manjian without hesitation and slaughter the Celestial Captives. She's your child. How could you kill her?"

"A great man must be ruthless. Today, not only will I kill her, but I'll also kill you. I'm a Yuanhui-level genius. My future is limitless. I can't let you affect my cultivation," Zhang Ruochen said decisively.

The sword in his hand rang.

Yan Zhexian looked around at the enclosed space, "You're so disgusting. You don't have any sense of responsibility that a man should have. I know I'm no match for you. However, my spiritual power is higher than yours. You can't stop me from self-detonating my Sainthood Source. If you dare to take another step forward, we'll die together."

At that moment, Yan Zhexian seemed to have completely forgotten about losing her virginity. She only wanted to protect her baby.

She looked down on Zhang Ruochen even more and hated this man.

In the past, it was because Zhang Ruochen was too shameless, and his methods were too despicable.

Now, it was because Zhang Ruochen did something and didn't want to take responsibility. He even wanted to kill his own woman and child.

He's a monster.

Good for nothing.

His sins were intolerable.

'No... why do I think that if I'm pregnant with his child or became his woman? We're just two strangers. It's all the Madre Bloody Shadow's fault. If it wasn't for her, we wouldn't have this ill-fated relationship.' Yan Zhexian thought.

Zhang Ruochen seemed to be intimidated by her, but he also seemed to be woken up by Yan Zhexian's scolding. His face revealed a look of repentance and said, "You're right. The child is innocent. How about this? After the Battle of Celestial-Hunting ends, you and I will return to the Bloodysky Clan. After the child is born, you can return to the Yanluo clan."

Yan Zhexian understood what Zhang Ruochen meant. After the child was born, it would belong to him. She could do whatever she wanted. From then on, they would forget about one another and pretend that nothing had happened.

The child had nothing to do with her.

Yan Zhexian was naturally furious. She thought, 'Who does Zhang Ruochen think he was? Did he think that I couldn't even raise a child? The Yanluo clan was the supreme clan. My grandfather was a god, my great-grandfather was an ancient god, and my great-grandfather was a Grand Supreme Master.

How could the Xue Jue Family dare to take my child away?

The child was mine. Don't even think about it.'

However, Yan Zhexian was worried that she would anger that monster, Zhang Ruochen. She was worried that he would kill her child with his sword again. So, she said perfunctorily, "Fine! As long as you don't kill her, I will do as you said."

Swoosh

In an instant, Zhang Ruochen appeared in front of her. He stabbed Yan Zhexian 144 times with his sword.

Yan Zhexian's eyes were filled with sword light. She didn't have time to defend herself.

"Zhang Ruochen, you can't be so cruel. Please, let her live... She's innocent... how can you be so cruel..."

Yan Zhexian cried and pleaded.

She cried until she lost her voice.

A moment later, Yan Zhexian found that Zhang Ruochen didn't kill the baby in her belly. He only used the sword hilt to seal her cultivation. Even her Spirits were locked in the saint heart by the sword hilt.

Only now did she realize that she had no chance to self-destruct in front of Zhang Ruochen.

It happened in a flash!

It was even faster than the speed at which she released her spiritual power.

However, it was good that he did not kill the baby in her belly. At least Zhang Ruochen still had some humanity.

Yan Zhexian was actually very bright. It was just that she was too young and lacked experience. Her cultivation seemed to have reached the Supreme Saint Realm. In fact, she spent most of her time in seclusion and studied Talismans on the clan's sacred ground.

Even when she fought in duels, her opponents were her own clansmen.

Among the Yanluo clan, who would dare to hurt her? Who would dare to trick her?

In the real secular world, she might not even be able to compete with a teenage girl. Compared to Yan Wushen and Yan Huangtu, her gap was many miles apart.

Otherwise, Zhang Ruochen wouldn't have been able to fool her so easily.

Her attack just now had surprised Zhang Ruochen, and her speed seemed to have become faster. He immediately mobilized his spiritual power to analyze. He wanted to know if he had made any progress during this short period of sleep?

After analyzing, Zhang Ruochen was shocked beyond words.

'What was going on?' Zhang Ruochen wondered.

"The Madre Bloody Shadow said that the opportunities on this planet don't belong to me, but... But why has my cultivation improved so much?"

The number of precepts had increased by more than one billion.

The total number of precepts had reached five billion.

Despite the fact that there was still a significant gap between Zhang Ruochen and the likes of Yan Huangtu and Wujiang, it had already saved him several decades of hard cultivation time. Naturally, his combat prowess had improved significantly.

Among them, the five elemental precepts of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth had increased the most dramatically, by several orders of magnitude.

There was also an even bigger surprise.

The Five-element Chaotic Neverwither Physique became stronger, and the power of the five elements in him became purer. Every drop of blood, every inch of skin, and every bone seemed to be condensed from the purest power of five elements; it didn't contain any impurities.

Even the power of the Demigod-level physique, the divine blood of the Phoenix, had become one with the chaotic five elements.

His body was like chaos, and the five elements were like clouds and smoke.

In the past, Zhang Ruochen's physique wasn't actually the Inborn Five-Element Chaotic Body. It had been cultivated and had many impurities. But now, his physique was even purer than the Inborn Five-Element Chaotic Body.

Zhang Ruochen was so excited that he almost trembled.

This was because this physical body could perfectly match the Yin Yang Five-Element Saintwill and create a possibility for him to cultivate the Grade One Saintwill. He finally had hope.

At that moment, Zhang Ruochen was eager to fuse with the Earth Saintwill and take himself to the next level.

He thought of the Pale Blood Soil again.

The Madre Bloody Shadow had said that the Pale Blood Soil was right in front of him.

Where was it?
