Zhang Ruochen was in his thought for a moment and looked at the Maiden of a Thousand Stars again. He asked, Why are you telling me this?

The key to the World Gate was of great importance. Many top cultivators had been mobilized for it. Anyone who knew the secret would have kept it to themselves and had no reason to tell others.

Consider it as returning the favor. Since you have saved my life before, wouldnt want you to annoy me with that in the future. Besides, its not an easy task to get the key to the World Gate. That old man is cunning. Well see who will get it first, the Maiden of a Thousand Stars said casually.

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen could not help but look at the Maiden of a Thousand Stars deeply. Was the reason as simple as she said? The so-called favor might not be comparable with the key of the World Gate.

Especially that the Maiden of a Thousand Stars attained the Path of Origin. She should be thirsting for the Qi of Origin from Kunlun Realm, and she shouldnt tell others about the clues of the key of the World Gate even more so.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ruochen realized that he understands the maidens motive, and his mood couldnt help but fluctuate.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Ruochen said in a low voice, Thank you.

Its rare to hear these two words from you, Zhang Ruochen. Im going to meet up with the top cultivators of the Thousand-Star Civilization first. If theres any news about the Son of Darkness, Ill let you know.

Without further delay, the Maiden of a Thousand Stars didnt stay any longer. She shifted into a phantom and disappeared into the ruins.

Zhang Ruochen stood on top of the monster kings head and watched the Maiden of a Thousand Stars left, with mixed feelings.

Zhang Ruochen and the Maiden of a Thousand Stars had been through the life and death situation together. Even if they both had the canon of truth, they are enemies no more.

Else, what should they be?

Shaking his head hard, Zhang Ruochen put aside all his distracting thoughts. He thought about how to deal with the Son of Darkness and how to find the short and skinny old man. These were the two most important things to do at the moment.

Ill settle the score with the Son of Darkness First. Maybe I can lure that old man out later. Zhang Ruochen thought.

Zhang Ruochen guessed that the short and skinny old man would like to join in the fun. The old man had been drawn out by the battle before. If he could do something drastic enough, the old man would probably be unable to resist himself and resurfaced.

No matter what, Zhang Ruochen had to seek revenge on the Son of Darkness. He just couldnt let go of his grudge.

Zhang Ruochen didnt plan to sit here and wait. He wanted to take the initiative and force the Son of Darkness to fight him.

Five thousand miles away, in a hidden cave, the Jinyang Twin Kings, who were in seclusion, opened their eyes at the same time.

Has Zhang Ruochen gone mad? He wishes to fight with the Son of Darkness. Is he tired of living? King Xiaoyang was in doubt.

In his point of view, Zhang Ruochen wasnt weak, but his capability was still far from the Son of Darkness. They werent on the same level technically speaking.

King Dayangs eyes were cold. He said in a low voice, Zhang Ruochen wishes to die, but we cant let him die at the hands of the Son of Darkness. We must be the one that ends him.

The Sunshine Civilization had suffered a great defeat at Zhang Ruochens hands. If they could not get back at him, they would always be a laughing stock. This was their only chance to redeem themselves.

But brother, itll take some time for your vitality to recover. King Xiaoyang said with a little hesitation.

King Dayang stood up. A fierce and domineering aura was emitting from his body. Looking down towards his brother, he said, It doesnt matter. You need not recover to your peak state to deal with the likes of Zhang Ruochen.

Last time, King Dayang was being too cautious. In the end, he was tricked by Zhang Ruochen. This time, he would crush Zhang Ruochen mercilessly with all his power.

King Xiaoyang stood up as well. Terrifying killing intent appeared in his eyes. The two of them had been invincible since their debut. They had made a name for themselves in both the Celestial Court and the Infernal Court. Together, they had been able to fight against a top cultivator of First-Tier below the Supreme Sainthood, but they had been defeated by Zhang Ruochen instead. It was a great humiliation.

This humiliation could only be washed away using Zhang Ruochens blood.

Without further delay, the Jinyang Twin Kings flew out of the cave where they were in seclusion and headed straight for the direction where the howl came from.

Meanwhile, all the top cultivators heard of Zhang Ruochens ruthless words. It was like a storm that quickly swept through the ruins of Dragon God Shrine and attracted the attention of all parties.

Who does Zhang Ruochen think he is? He dares to challenge the Son of Darkness. He must be overestimating himself. If the Son of Darkness attacks, he can easily suppress him with a single hand.

No one dares to threaten the Infernal Court. Zhang Ruochen, youre courting death.

Hes just an immature Scion of Time and Space. Does he think hes become a figure? Does he think hes the second Saint Monk Xumi? Anyone who makes an enemy of the Infernal Court must die.

The whole Infernal Court was furious and agitated. They felt very disdain for Zhang Ruochen.

In the Sword Vault Palace battle and Xianji Mountain battle, a large number of powerful cultivators of the Infernal Court had died at the hands of Zhang Ruochen. He had long angered the Infernal Court. Countless top cultivators of the Infernal Court wished they could grind his bones into dust.

The Son of Darkness, who was the main character of the Infernal Court, appeared to be calm. He had yet to respond. It was as if he had already left the True Dragon Island.

After all, the Son of Darkness had obtained hundreds of millions of years worth of treasures in the monsters body. It can be said that he gained the treasures beyond imagination, overloaded his capacity.

But in truth, the Son of Darkness was still in the ruins. He hadnt returned to the Infernal Court with the treasures.

First of all, with his caliber, he had no fear of anyone. He still wished to obtain more treasures.

Second, the Son of Darkness was the leader of the Fane of Darkness. He was in charge of leading the Infernal Courts army into the True Dragon Island and seize the key to the World Gate. His mission had yet to complete, so how could he leave?

Pfft

Zhang Ruochen swung his sword and chopped off the head of a powerhouse from the Nether Clan. With the terrifying sword form, he killed the Saint Soul of the powerhouse.

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen felt like he was in an Infernal Ashuran. The corpses were piled up as high as a mountain, the blood of the fallen flows like a river, even the heaven and earth were painted crimson red.

Not long ago, Zhang Ruochen had found an army of one hundred Netherkin warriors here. They were the flag guards of the Nether Clan Army and were responsible for guarding the Nether Clans war flag.

The Nether Clan Army advanced towards the direction of the war flag. All the powerhouses of the Nether Clan were scattered around the territories of the war flag.

If anything happened, the Nether Clan Army could gather around swiftly.

The flag guards were slain by Zhang Ruochen with ease. At the same time, he cut off the Nether Clans war flag and stuck it aside.

Many of the Nether Clan powerhouses wanted to take back the war flag. They came from all directions. In the end, they were all vanquished by Zhang Ruochens sword.

The mountain of corpses in front of Zhang Ruochen was formed by thousands of fallen powerhouses of the Nether Clan. Their resentment was overwhelming.

Zhang Ruochen moved and appeared on top of the mountain of corpses. He looked down at the lake of blood filled by the blood from the powerhouses of the Nether Clan.

They were all top cultivators of the Saint King Realm after all. Their blood was exuberant. The blood flowing out was comparable to that of millions of ordinary creatures.

After a moment of silence, Zhang Ruochen reached out his hands and suddenly raised them. The blood rose high as if they were boiling and filled the entire sky. A terrifying phenomenon appeared as if the end of the world has arrived.

Then, Zhang Ruochen pointed to the sky with his finger, used the sky as a book, and the blood as ink to began writing.

Son of Darkness, Im at the top of the mountain of corpses of the Netherkins. Im waiting for you to fight to the death Zhang Ruochen.

Three lines of words filled with killing intent appeared in the sky. They could be seen even from tens of thousands of miles away.

Compared to the words he had said through the air, these three lines of words were no doubt the true letter of challenge.

Only Zhang Ruochen was daring enough to write a letter of challenge, using the blood of more than 1,000 powerhouses of the Nether Clan.

All the cultivators in the ruins looked up to the sky and they all fixed their sight at the three lines of blood.

Zhang Ruochen has done the unexpected. Just how many powerhouses of the Nether clan did he kill to achieve such enormous Blood Qi?

Many of the cultivators were shocked.

Everyone could sense that a storm is coming. The Infernal Court would never let this getaway. Even if the Son of Darkness didnt attack, the other top cultivators would come and for Zhang Ruochens head.

After writing the letter of challenge, Zhang Ruochen did nothing but sit cross-legged on a rock mountain. Waiting for more powerhouses of the Infernal Court to come. Since he had already started the fight, he would kill to his hearts content.

Half a day later, Zhang Ruochen sensed that someone had arrived. He opened his eyes wide to see who were they.

Hundreds of miles away, a man and a woman were walking side by side.

The man was an extraordinary young man with long golden hair, golden eyes, and a pair of golden dragon horns on his forehead, which looked like they were made of divine gold. His body was surrounded by a vigorous golden blood qi, which looked like a vast divine sea.

The woman was flawless and stunningly beautiful. She was different from other women who were petite and lovely. She was tall and dressed in golden mail as if she was a goddess of war. It was an unforgettable sight.

Even though they were distanced, Zhang Ruochen could feel an extremely noble aura coming from them. They did not attain such a state, but they were born with it.

Ao Xukong, Fairy Linglong.

Zhang Ruochens eyes flashed with full spirit.

Zhang Ruochen was familiar with the man and the woman. After all, both of them are very well-known. No one had not heard of them.

Ao Xukong was the top cultivator below the Supreme Sainthood of the Celestial Dragon Realm. His physical strength and power were incredible and invincible.

Fairy Linglong was a fairy from the Portrait of the Nine Beauties. Her beauty was well-known throughout the world, countless people would be wild of her.

However, Zhang Ruochen did not have any contact with them, so he was unsure of the reason they had come.

Ao Xinyan had once said that the forbidden figure in the Ying Yang Sea seemed to have gone to the Celestial Dragon Realm and that the realm was involved in this matter. This makes Zhang Ruochen connect the dots between the incidents that happened.

The Celestial Dragon Realm was ranked second in the Southern Universe, second only to The Demon God Realm, which ruled the world in the south. It had a strong foundation. It was on par with the Kunlun Realm and the Western Buddha Realm a hundred thousand years ago. But now, it was even more unfathomable. It was now the most powerful realm amongst all.

Even if one could not get on good terms with such a powerful realm, one must not get on bad terms with it as well.

With quick thinking, Zhang Ruochen could not help but stood up and took the initiative to greet them. He cupped his hands and said, Brother Ao, Fairy Linglong, its a pleasure to meet you.

You know who I am?A look of surprise flashed in Ao Xukongs eyes.

Zhang Ruochen said, How could I not recognize you? Brother Ao, you are the infamous genius from the Celestial Dragon Realm. Your name traveled throughout the heavens.

If we are talking about fame, Im afraid there arent many people in the younger generation who can compare to you. I have longed to meet you too, The Scion of Time and Space who is highly regarded by the Yueshen, Ao Xukong said.

Hearing the name Yueshen, Zhang Ruochens heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Yueshen had something to do with the Celestial Dragon Realm?

Looking at the mountain of corpses in front of her, Fairy Linglong couldnt help but shake her head slightly with a worried look, she said, Brother Zhang, you might have been a little overdoing it. If this continues, Im afraid that the Infernal Court will seek revenge upon you. Other than the Son of Darkness, there are also The Seven Top Killers of the Nether Temple and the Three Emperors and Twelve Reverends from the Bone Clan. All of them are top cultivators and it wont be an easy task to deal with them.

I rarely admire anyone, but brother Zhang, the things you have done for the Kunlun Realm have made me admire you. The battle between the Kunlun Realm and the Infernal Court has just begun. There is no need for you to charge against the Infernal Court now.

With your potential, it wont take long for you to become the top cultivator below the Supreme Sainthood and even stand shoulder to shoulder with Yan Wushen. At that time, there wont be anyone from the Infernal Court to challenge you.

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochens eyes couldnt help but change slightly. He didnt expect that Fairy Linglong would say such a thing to him.

Ao Xukong nodded. Shes is right. Brother Zhang, you are The Scion of Time and Space and have received the inheritance of Saint Monk Xumi. In time, you might be able to reach the level that Saint Monk Xumi had attained in the past. Theres no need to fight with the Son of Darkness now.

If the Son of Darkness provoked you and forced you to fight, I can fight on your behalf and make him pay for his crime. As he spoke, Ao Xukong exuded a strong fighting spirit. It seemed that he had been looking forward to such a battle.

Just as the rumors said, Ao Xukong was indeed a battle-frenzied dragon. He had hoped to meet all kinds of powerful opponents to improve his strength through fighting.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Ao Xukong and Fairy Linglong deeply. He could feel that they were sincerely trying to persuade him to give up the idea of fighting with the Son of Darkness.

For them to come to persuade him in person, it must be because the Celestial Dragon Realm saw his potential, just like the taoists. Maybe it was because of Yueshen and Saint Monk Xumi.

Of course, there was a significant reason. Both Ao Xukong and Fairy Linglong felt that Zhang Ruochen was still not strong enough and had not accepted the fact that there was a large gap between him and the Son of Darkness. They thought that he was acting on impulse.

It was normal since before entering the True Dragon Island, his best battle result was the battle with the Mosheng. It had only been a short while. No one would believe that he had the top-notch strength of the First-Tier below the Supreme Sainthood.

He exhaled lightly, Zhang Ruochen said solemnly, Thank you, Brother Ao and Fairy Linglong, for your kindness. But my grudge with the Son of Darkness must be resolved by my own hands. Besides that, I have already issued a challenge to him. How can I turn my back on it now? If did that, I would be causing my own misery.

Although the Son of Darkness is very tough, he is not invincible. I will know who is stronger and who is weaker after a real battle, said Zhang Ruochen.

Hearing this, Ao Xukongs face showed a strange look. He did not expect Zhang Ruochen to be so confident. After all, even he was not fully confident of himself that he could defeat the Son of Darkness.

The battle of life and death was not a joke.

It seems that I cant persuade you. In that case, you should be more careful. Ao Xukong felt very helpless. Then he added, With your current status, your life and death do not only matter to you. You must be rational and think it over.

Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, I know what Im doing.

Ao Xukong and Fairy Linglong chatted with Zhang Ruochen for a little while more. Seeing that they couldnt change Zhang Ruochens mind, they left helplessly.

Well, they didnt exactly leave. They just stayed nearby and watched from afar.

I dont know what happened that causes Zhang Ruochen to lose his mind, Fairy Linglong sighed.

A different look flashed through Ao Xukongs eyes. I hope he didnt act on impulse.

After watching Ao Xukong and Fairy Linglong left, Zhang Ruochen returned to the mountain of corpses. He was extremely calm. Their persuasion didnt shake his resolve and confidence in fighting against the Son of Darkness.

More people came around after Ao Xukong and Fairy Linglong left. They didnt come close, just watched from afar.

Zhang Ruochen had noticed these people, but he didnt care much about them. As long as they didnt provoke him, he Wouldnt care what they want.

Swoosh

A red light flashed from the sky and Blackie appeared out of nowhere.

Ive finally found you. Didnt you go after that sly old man? Why are you fighting with the Son of Darkness Again? Blackie questioned Zhang Ruochen with all the doubts in his mind.

Zhang Ruochen didnt hide anything from Blackie. He briefly disclosed everything that had happened to Blackie.

After listening to Zhang Ruochens story, Blackie was furious. The Son of Darkness is so sinister. Youre right. We must kill him. We cant let him bring the treasures of Kunlun Realm back to the Infernal Court.

It was pretty obvious that Blackies was aiming at the hundreds of millions of treasures. The others were secondary.

By the way, that sly old man probably knows where the key to the World Gate is. If he ever shows up again, we must catch him, Zhang Ruochen said suddenly.

This was of utmost importance. He had to focus on dealing with the Son of Darkness. Even if the short and skinny old man appeared, he wouldnt have time to care. Blackie had just come at the right time.

Hearing this, Blackies eyes widened and asked Zhang Ruochen. Are you sure?

He has the Origin Aura of Kunlun Realm. So he must have come into contact with the key of the World Gate, Zhang Ruochen confirmed.

Blackies eyes flashed. Finally, a clue to the key of the World Gate. Dont worry, leave this to me. As long as that old gramps appears, he wont be able to get away.

Blackie became very serious when it is about the key to the World Gate. He was already thinking about how to deal with the short and skinny old man.

As for Zhang Ruochens challenge to the Son of Darkness, Blackie wasnt worried about it at all.

Blackie knew very well that Zhang Ruochen would never do anything that he had no confidence in.
