Chapter 1886: Brother Bao Lie

BOOOMMM!!!

The power erupting from the leopard’s claws was like a meteorite falling from the sky. It crashed against Zhang Ruochen, and shook him so much that he fell back uncontrollably.

After pulling back to more than six hundred feet away, Zhang Ruochen maanged to stablize himself.

The hundreds-meter-long leopard claw gradually dissipated, as it transformed into an air current and rushed into the ground, blending into a burly form.

The burly figure stood in the center of the flaming lake was in human form, yet he was about 2.5 meters all. Because of the flames around him, his figure appeared looming, distorted and unclear.

By the edge of the lake, Bao Xinghun saw Zhang Ruochen was being pushed back, and said with a joyful look on his face. “Father, kill him.”

The burly figure walked out of the lake of flames, revealing his true face.

But, he did not continue the attack, but instead, he was a little agitated as he stared at Zhang Ruochen. “How long have you been imprisoned in the Nether Dungeon? Where did you learn the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike?”

Upon hearing his father asking such an inexplicable question, Bao Xinghun was a little stunned.

Zhang Ruochen saw the face of the burly figure, and there was an unspeakable excitement in his heart, as if it was a raging tsunami. This person… this person was really Brother Bao Lie.

“Bro…”

Just as Zhang Ruochen opened his mouth, a crimson storm rushed out from behind the flaming lake. In an instant, the entire area became extremely dim as everything was blood-red.

A strange power affected Zhang Ruochen’s mood.

His usually calm heart became slightly unsettled.

One need to know, Zhang Ruochen’s state of mind, beneath a Supreme Saint, could be said to be outstanding, and yet he was still affected. A Five-step Saint King was naturally even more vulnerable.

As soon as he was swept by the blood-red storm, Bao Xinghun’s eyes turned blood red, as he looked confused, and let out a painful roar from his mouth.

“RAAAAAWWWRRR!!”

In the next moment, he transformed into his original form, a Nebula Leopard that was a hundred feet tall, and exuding a violent aura.

“What happened?”

The scarlet storm came too suddenly and too bizarrely, causing Zhang Ruochen to feel a strong sense of danger.

“Damn it, it’s here again!”

A surge of anger appeared in Bao Lie’s eyes. With a flicker, he reappeared beside Bao Xinghun, and summoned a dragon-tail hook spear, and looked at the raging blood-red storm with caution.

Seeing the cautious look of Brother Bao Lie, Zhang Ruochen was even more sure that there must be a huge danger in the crimson storm.

“WHOOSH!!”

Zhang Ruochen immediately deployed the Domain of Space.

The Domain of Space had just expanded beyond four feet before a spirit tempest rushed out from the crimson storm. The spirit tempest was a giant wave formed out of sharp blades of spiritual power.

An unknown creature was launching a spiritual attack on him.

Fortunately, he had deployed the Domain of Space, or else the spirit tempest would have instantly fell upon Zhang Ruochen.

Now, at least there was some buffer time.

Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual powers now was not weak, so he was not afraid. He pulled out six Pearls of Vanity, and arranged them into the circle, forming a bulwark seal, and clashed against the spirit tempest.

On the other side, Bao Lie too was attacked by the spirit tempest.

He was unfazed, and planted his spear into the ground, as he raised his Precept Domain, and confronted the spirit temest.

He did not know if it was because Zhang Ruochen was proficient in the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm, but although this was the first time Bao Lie saw the person, he was not very hostile to him as he shouted a reminder. “Be careful, that monster is not just proficient in spiritual attacks.”

“What monster?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

“Whooosh~”

A strange sound rang out from the blood-red storm.

A number of white silk threads shot out, and each thread was thousands of feet long, and one of them grazed through Zhang Ruochen’s right arm, and collided with the Fire God’s Armguard, kicking up sparks in its wake.

It was extremely sharp!

If it had struck his skin, even if Zhang Ruochen’s physical defense was strong, he would still be wounded.

Not daring to come into contact with the white silk threads, Zhang Ruochen used the power of space to constantly dodge and avoided the opponent’s attack. There were too many white silk threads, and even with the aid of the power of space, Zhang Ruochen was tethering on the edge of danger, and was almost hit more than once.

“What sort of monster is that?”

Zhang Ruochen blasted out the Divine Purification Flames, and transformed it into a Divine Fire Qilin as it rushed to the source of the white silk threads.

The Chenyan-level Divine Purification Flame could not even burn the white silk threads. Instead, an arcane red pattern flew out from the heart of the white silk threads, and struck the Flame Qilin, shattering it into pieces.

“That’s…. a talismanic rune. That monster can actually carve out such a powerful rune.” Zhang Ruochen was incredulous.

The red runes that had flew out earlier, each of them had the power to kill a Nine-step Saint King, and was definitely not to be underestimated.

Zhang Ruochen was about to summon the Evil Spirit to fight the monster.

On the other hand, a long howl rang out, and he saw Bao Lie, who was standing next to Bao Xinghun, swept his war spear in an arc.

An ancient yet sacred power inside the spear rushed out in golden brilliance, and scattered the blood-red storm.

Red runes flew out again from the center of the white silk threads.

The number of runes was as many as hundreds as all of them intertwined, and forming an arcane seal as it clashed with the war spear.

BOOM!!

The two forces clashed into a deadlock, and for a while, none was able to gain any advantage.

However, the white silk threads in the air swept around Bao Lie, and instead slashed at Bao Xinghun behind him.

“Shit!”

Bao Lie’s expression changed, and was about to pull back his spear, and used a defensive measure.

However, with that, he will definitely be pushed on the back foot, but he had to do it. He could not just look on as his son got killed by the monster.

“HMM?!”

Bao Lie turned his head around, only to find that Bao Xinghun had already retreated hundreds of miles away.

A figure stood beside Bao Xinghun, it was that young human man who had used the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Palm Strike earlier.

“He’s actually a cultivator of space.”

Bao Lie sensed the fluctuations in space, and obviously, that man had used the power of space to save Bao Xinghun.

In any case, now that he had no other worries, Bao Lie no longer gave it much thought, and went all out to attack the monster.

After coming to the Dismemberment Prison Realm, Bao Lie had already fought the monster several times, and knew its weakness. So, he picked up his spear, and transformed into a light beam as he rushed inside the dense white silk threads.

The monster, was most afraid of close quarter combat.

“BOOOMM.”

After a series of explosions, the monster let out a scream, as it fled into the distance.

It lost!

“Where do you think you are going?”

Bao Lie lifted his left hand, his palm transformed into sharp claws, and grabbed at the monster in the air, trying to capture it.

The monster was completely wrapped in white silk, and a sharp sound wave radiated from inside the silk threads.

Even when Zhang Ruochen was hundred miles away, his eardrums instantly burst as blood flowed out of his ears, his whole body slid backwards, and everything turned dark, as his body felt weak and disorientated.

Zhang Ruochen immediately activated his inner techniques to protect himself.

After who knows how long had passed, Zhang Ruochen had recovered, and opened his eyes once again.

That monster had long fled.

Bao Lie’s burly figure appeared opposite of Zhang Ruochen and looked at him with a suspicious look. Not too far away, Bao Xinghun, who had returned to his original form, fell onto the ground, and was covered in blood, clearly badly wounded.

Bao Lie did not went to treat his son, but instead pointed his spear at Zhang Ruochen’s forehead as he gritted his teeth, and said coldly. “The technique you cultivated is The Scripture of Emperor Ming’s Empyrean, where did you steal it from?”

Zhang Ruochen stared at the copper bell-like eyes of Bao Lie, and his eyes was a little wet, but he still forced out a smile. “Third brother, I’m Ruochen… long time no see.”

“Ruochen?”

The spear in Bao Lie’s hand trembled slightly.

Zhang Ruochen knew that it was not easy for Brother Bao Lie to believe him.

So, he took out the Ancient Abyssal Blade and handed it over.

Bao Lie knew the sword that was made out of iron of creation, and said. “Abyss! Why would Abyss be in your hands? it is little junior brother’s sword! No, no, little junior brother had been killed by Princess Chi Yao, you are not him. You must be someone sent by Emperor Qing and Princess Chi Yao. What is your goal?”

Originally, Bao Lie did not have much hostility towards Zhang Ruochen, but now that this bastard was pretending to be his late little junior brother, how can he not be angry?

Zhang Ruochen saw Bao Lie showing strong emotions, and so he carefully recalled and wanted to talk about some stories eight hundred years ago.

At this moment, Shi Ren and Shi Qiankun had came to the Dismemberment Prison Realm, and descended not too far away from Zhang Ruochen and Bao Lie.

Bao Lie’s fierce gaze glanced over, and said waryly. “Who are you people?”

Shi Ren saw that Bao Lie’s spear was pointed at Zhang Ruochen, and revealed a nervous look. He immediately took out three talismans and blasted it over.

“Stop!” Zhang Ruochen exclaimed.

But it was too late!

Two beams of light shot out from Bao Lie’s eyes, and blasted through the three talismans.

The power of the red beams was not diminished, as they roared towards Shi Ren at the rear.

With Shi Ren’s cultivation now, how could he stop Bao Lie’s attack?

What Bao Lie had used, was not a simple glance, it was a saint art that Zhang Ruochen dared not take head on even with his current cultivation.

But now, Zhang Ruochen had no time to explain, so he activated the Dimensional Shift to appear before Shi Ren, and evoked the Azuresky Pagoda, activating the supreme power within it to block the two red beams from Bao Lie’s eyes.

Seeing the Azuresky Pagoda, it was as if it had confirmed the suspicion he had, and Bao Lie burst into fury and roared. “You really are sent by Emperor Qing and Princess Chi Yao, die!”

“Third brother, can you listen to me?” Zhang Ruochen said while he blocked the attack.

Bao Lie’s subconsciousness actually was willing to believe him, and that the person before him was his little junior brother. After a moment of hesitation, he said. “Alright, I’ll give you a chance to speak, if you dare to lie to me, I will break you.”

A strange light flashed in the eyes of Shi Ren who was standing behind Zhang Ruochen, as if he did not want to give Zhang Ruochen and Bao Lie the chance to speak. He took out over a dozen talismans, and blasted it towards Bao Lie.

“Die, beast!” Shi Ren yelled.
