Chapter 2300: The Inescapable Snare

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lord Xia Yu, who had carved the formation patterns in the outer area of their home planet, followed the trajectory of the meteorite and landed on the island behind Zhang Ruochen. Her clothes fluttered.

Seeing the inscriptions on the meteorite, her eyes darkened. “It’s a trap. You can’t go.”

Zhang Ruochen sat on the reef calmly. “Whether it’s a trap or not, I have to go.”

“Are you crazy?”? At the festival, Xu had suffered so much at your hands. He must be holding a grudge. “After that, you stole his Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pill. If I were him, I wouldn’t endure it. I would try every means to kill you.”

Then Lord Xia Yu said, “If you go to the home planet of the Ghost Clan, you’ll be walking into a trap. Whether you can defeat Xu or not, you won’t be able to leave that planet alive in the end.”

Zhang Ruochen stood up and said, “You should have confidence in me.”

Lord Xia Yu’s beautiful and cold face showed a hint of regret. She said, “Zhang Ruochen, you have to understand that this is not only a battle between victory and defeat, but also a test for you by the gods.

“After all, you used to belong to Celestial Court. You have countless connections with Celestial Court. If you can’t sever these connections, how can the Infernal Court deities let you continue to grow? The stronger you are, the more reason they will oppress you.

“For the sake of a Celestial Court Supreme Saint, you fought against the Infernal Court cultivators. So what if you win? What will the deities think of you?

“As long as you go, you will lose.

“If Supreme Saint Manjian really sees you as a good friend, he will understand your difficulty.

“Besides, since he had become a Celestial Captive on the Celestial-Hunting battlefield, Supreme Saint Manjian’s fate has already been decided. You can’t change it. Why do you need to give away your future for a result that has already been decided?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “Must he die just because he became a Celestial Captive?”

“If I’m captured by Celestial Court and become their prey, do you think the Celestial Court deities will let me survive? Saving me means challenging the deities,” Lord Xia Yu said.

Zhang Ruochen remained silent and avoided the topic. He said, “In this Celestial-Hunting battle, what place you think the Immortal Vampires will get?”

Lord Xia Yu didn’t know why Zhang Ruochen suddenly asked this question. She thought about it carefully and said seriously, “There are seven Great Perfection elites of Hundred-Shackle Realm among the Immortal Vampires now. The total is eight, including you. It shouldn’t be difficult for us to get sixth place. I can even try to secure the fifth.”

“My goal is to be first,” Zhang Ruochen said.

Lord Xia Yu was stunned.

“Isn’t Zhang Ruochen overambitious?

“First place?!

“He is probably the only one in the entire Immortal Vampires who dares to think about it.”

Zhang Ruochen said again, “Accepting Xu’s invitation to the Ghost Clan’s home planet was indeed very dangerous. I’m likely to face not only the Ghost elites, but also the top Supreme Saints of the Bone clan and Corpusians.

“But, isn’t this also an opportunity?”

Lord Xia Yu figured out Zhang Ruochen’s intention. She was moved. “You want to take this opportunity to destroy the Ghost Clan’s home planet?”

“If the Immortal Vampires want to take first place, the only way is to destroy the home planets of the other nine clans. At the same time, we have to protect our own home planet. Since Xu has sent me an invitation, I’ll go along with his plan.”

Zhang Ruochen’s expression was cold. He spoke of destroying the home planet of the nine clans and killing billions of living beings and dead souls as calmly as water, without a trace of mercy.

The defensive array of the Immortal Vampires’ home planet had been set up. Now, they would go to exterminate the Ghost Clan’s home planet. They didn’t have to worry about retaliation from the Ghost Clan cultivators.

They had to seize the right time to exterminate the other nine clans’ home planets.

Lord Xia Yu sensed Zhang Ruochen’s determination. She knew that he wasn’t reckless and ignorant, so she didn’t try to dissuade him. “I’ll go with you.”

“You stay at our home planet and continue to set up the array. The stronger the array the better. In the future, we might have to stay here and resist the attacks of the nine clans,” said Zhang Ruochen.

“The first defense array has been set up. Even if ten Hundred-Shackle Realm Supreme Saints, who have achieved the Great Perfection, attack, the home planet can still resist it. It should be enough for now.”

Lord Xia Yu continued, “Since Xu dares to invite you to his clan’s home planet, it means that the defense array of the Ghost Clan’s home planet has been set up. If you can’t break the array, how are you going to destroy that planet?”

Zhang Ruochen finally agreed to take her with him.

Lord Xia Yu also proposed to let Gu Chenzi go with them, but Zhang Ruochen turned down her proposal.

The Bloodysky Continent was the foundation of Bloodysky Clan. They needed a top elite to guard it at all times. If they were attacked by the enemy, they would lose.

The Celestial-Hunting battle was too important to be careless.

…

The Ghost Clan’s home planet was located northwest of the Celestial-Hunting battlefield. Thick dark fog covered the planet, which was floating in the starry sky. It looked almost invisible.

It was like a dark fog in the universe.

Xu stood at the peak of the highest mountain on the planet. With one hand behind his back, he looked at the sky.

Beneath his feet was white snow.

A cold wind blew in the air.

Supreme Saint Manjian was nailed to the northern cliff of the mountain by five ice pillars. His long hair was disheveled, and his saint blood was flowing. The aura of his cultivation Path became weaker and weaker.

“It’s useless. I… am just a cripple who has lost Saint Source. Using me to threaten Zhang Ruochen is meaningless. He won’t come,” Supreme Saint Manjian said weakly.

Xu smirked, “Whether he comes or not, he will lose. However, if he comes, he will suffer a greater loss. His journey will end here.”

Ming, Ghost Master’s eighth son, stood at the foot of the mountain. He smiled and said, “If he doesn’t come, he, a so-called genius of current Yuanhui, will be known as a coward and will be laughed at.”

He said, “If Zhang Ruochen doesn’t come in three days when your blood runs out, I will extract your Saint Soul and refine you into a ghost slave.”. “This way, my cultivation can be improved.”. When Zhang Ruochen fights with me, his state of mind will also be fatally affected.

“No matter what, I won’t lose.”

Supreme Saint Yanhong and Mad Whitejade Lion stood in a concealing array not far from the mountain peak.

In addition, there were three Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm.

Ye Changzai of Impermanenton1.

Four-eyed Ghost Emperor of Umbramont1.

Popobawa Ghost Emperor of Bluewindon1.

Half of the most powerful saints of the nine Ghost Cities were here.

Killing Zhang Ruochen was a unanimous decision of the Ghost Clan.

The other Ghost Clan Supreme Saints in the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm didn’t join because they were hunting Celestial Captives in the starry sky and couldn’t come back for the time being.

With such a lineup, it could be seen how much they valued Zhang Ruochen.

Mad Whitejade Lion asked, “Your Highness, have the Bone clan Supreme Saint of the Great Perfection of Hundred-Shackle Realm really arrived? Why can’t I sense their aura at all?”

Supreme Saint Yanhong smiled, “If you can sense it, won’t Zhang Ruochen also be able to sense it? Don’t worry. The Bone Clan’s Moon-Bull Emperor and Lord Sparrow Bone came with me. At the critical moment, they’ll definitely give Zhang Ruochen a fatal blow.

“Apart from that, I’ve also invited Corpusians’ top elite, Mauve Pupa, to hide in a secret place outside the Ghost Clan’s home planet and cut off Zhang Ruochen’s path of retreat.”

Four-eyed Ghost Emperor’s body was 760 feet tall. His four eyes were like four magic lamps illuminating the world. He laughed. “With such a lineup, even if Lan Ying and Yan Huangtu come, they’ll definitely die, let alone Zhang Ruochen.”

“If we don’t attack, then so be it. Once we do, we must make him die a horrible death.” A shadow emerged on the ground. His voice was hoarse.

It was Ye Changzai.

He was always around but rarely appeared in plain sight.

He was the most mysterious elite of the Ghost Clan. Even with Xu’s strength, Xu didn’t dare to provoke him.

Popobawa Ghost Emperor was like a bat hanging upside down on a mulberry tree. His voice merged with the wind, “The Supreme Artifact of the Bone clan have been brought here, right? Together with the Supreme Artifact of our Ghost Clan, our side has a total of two Supreme Artifacts. If Zhang Ruochen dares to come, he will be turned into ashes.”

Mad Whitejade Lion was both excited and worried. “This is clearly a killing scheme. Anyone who comes will die. What if Zhang Ruochen doesn’t come?”

Supreme Saint Yanhong said, “It’ll only take three days. If he doesn’t come in three days, we’ll go to the Immortal Vampires’ home planet. With our strength, we can exterminate the Immortal Vampires first.”

Mad Whitejade Lion was secretly happy. If that was the case, it would be even better.

Supreme Saint Yanhong glanced at Mad Whitejade Lion without leaving a trace. Seeing through his thoughts, she sneered in her heart. ‘You want to use me as a knife, but you have no idea I want to take this chance to get rid of Lady Wind. Before I get rid of Lady Wind, I’ll definitely get rid of you first. But now, you still have some value.’

The reason why so many powerful figures responded to Supreme Saint Yanhong’s attack on Zhang Ruochen was not only because Zhang Ruochen had many enemies, but also his many treasures.

Eight Ampliofruits, three Quasi-Emperor Grade Saintwill Pills, a large number of King Grade Saintwill Pills, and top Heaven Grade Saintwill Pills.

These powerful cultivators were all here for benefit.

Supreme Saint Yanhong could use this to complete her plan to counter Lady Wind.

If it were any other time, it would not be easy to assemble the top masters of the three middle clans. After all, the three middle clans were also in competition with each other.

Mad Whitejade Lion added, “We’d better be careful. Zhang Ruochen is proficient in the Path of Time and Space. If he sneaks in quietly, we will be caught unprepared.”

Four-eyed Ghost Emperor laughed and pointed to the top of his head. “Do you see the seven stars? They are the seven nodes of the Star-Shield Grand Formation of the Ghost Clan’s home planet. They are also Pleiades Lotus, the supreme artifact.”

“With Xu in control of the supreme weapon and the combination of the supreme weapon and the Star-Shield Grand Formation, he can sense every single movement on the planet.”

Mad Whitejade Lion looked up, and his pupils contracted, “Why are there eight stars?”

“Eight stars?”

Supreme Saint Yanhong, the four-eyed ghost emperor, and the Winged Ghost Emperor looked up and saw that the eighth star had indeed appeared in the dark ghostly fog. Furthermore, that star was getting bigger and bigger. It became the size of a pan, a dustpan, a stone mill.

In the end, it covered half of the sky. It was grand and magnificent.

A huge planet was crashing towards the Ghost Clan’s home planet. The powerful gravitational force of the planet caused the wind and clouds to surge on the Ghost Clan’s home planet. Mountains collapsed, rivers collapsed, and the sea surged.

“It’s here!”

Supreme Saint Yanhong was not alarmed. Instead, she was delighted.

Standing at the peak of the mountain, Xu narrowed his eyes and revealed a carefree smile. He raised his palm. The chilly winds of heaven and earth gathered in his palm and condensed into a bone-piercing cold air.

He thrust his palm toward the sky.

This palm contained boundless ghost Qi and hundreds of millions of laws interweaved.

After charging out of the atmosphere of the planet of the Ghost Clan, the size of the palm print was already half the size of the planet of the Ghost Clan. It was like the hand of the heavens.

Rumble

In outer space, the planet that had crashed into them was dented and shattered by the palm print.

The densely packed fragments of the planet continued to fly toward the Ghost Clan’s home planet like a meteor shower. They activated the Star-Shield Grand Formation of the home planet and formed a layer of black ghost mist.

Boom Boom

All the meteor showers were annihilated and turned into dust.

The Ghost Clan’s home planet shook nonstop. The ghosts on the planet were all scared out of their wits and let out heart-wrenching howls.

When the world calmed down, Zhang Ruochen, dressed in a blood-red robe, appeared above the Ghost Clan’s home planet. He was straight and handsome. His long hair swayed. He gave off a majestic aura.

The Mystic Eye of Myriad Realms locked onto him again. The projection of the starry sky around the Ghost Clan’s home planet spread to all parts of Infernal Court.

At this moment, countless pairs of eyes were staring at the image in the sky — Zhang Ruochen and a star.

Many cultivators didn’t know what had happened. They also didn’t know why Zhang Ruochen had gone to the Ghost Clan’s home planet alone, so they had all sorts of guesses.

No matter what, the projection in the sky had attracted all the cultivators.

They wanted to know what would happen next?

Xu used his spiritual power to explore the surrounding starry sky and said with a smile, “As expected of the Scion of Time and Space. You kept your promise and actually came alone. I wonder if you dare to enter the Ghost Clan’s home planet?”

After saying this, Xu swiped his finger toward the sky.

Whoosh

A crack dozens of miles long appeared in the star-protecting formation. The black clouds were pushed open and appeared in the sky like a Heavenly River.

“There are hundreds of millions of ghosts on the Ghost Clan’s home planet, but I’m alone. If you dare to invite me in, why wouldn’t I dare to go?”

Zhang Ruochen took a step forward. The space distorted and he instantly appeared on the planet.

Just now, Zhang Ruochen had moved a planet thousands of miles in diameter from the universe and crashed into the Ghost Clan’s home planet. He was testing the strength of the planet’s defensive formation. He was certain of it.

That was why he dared to come to the planet without any scruples.

Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power spread out and found that there was not a single ghost on the continent under his feet. It was dead silent for thousands of miles.

It seemed that Xu had cleared the battlefield long ago and left.

When Zhang Ruochen’s gaze fell on Supreme Saint Manjian who was nailed to the cliff by the five icicles, his cold and ruthless eyes became even more murderous.

“You-You shouldn’t have come.”

Supreme Saint Manjian’s turbid eyes revealed a sorrowful and bitter light. His heart was moved beyond words.

Even though Zhang Ruochen had joined Infernal Court, even though he knew there was an inescapable snare here, he still came without hesitation!

Supreme Saint Manjian felt deeply guilty. He felt that he had dragged Zhang Ruochen down.

“Hurry…”

Supreme Saint Manjian was about to speak, but the icicle nailed to his head pierced into it. The cold air numbed his will, and the pain made him scream.

Zhang Ruochen clenched his fists and controlled his emotions. He looked around and said, “Call out all the powerful figures who are lying in ambush on this continent. What’s the point of continuing to hide?”

“Zhang Ruochen, I really want to fight against you and defeat you personally… No, I want to kill you and refine your soul into my slave. So, no outsiders will interfere in this battle,” Xu said.

Of course, Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t believe him. He pointed to the mountaintop and said resolutely, “Fighting against me alone will be the stupidest decision you’ve ever made.”
