Retrieving Huang Shenyi’s body was no easy task.
Because Zhang Ruochen still stood in the Coliseum.
Was he just going to stand and watch them take away the Holy Sword and Huang Shenyi’s body?
Di Yi smiled at Zhang Ruochen and walked toward the other side of the Coliseum. In one quick move, he picked up Huang Shenyi’s sword from the ground.
This sword was also a Holy Weapon.
When Zhang Ruochen fought with Huang Shenyi earlier, the Holy Sword fell below the Heaven Realm Battle Stage, wedged into the stone planks.
All Holy Weapons were valuable, regardless of what power they possessed. Of course, Di Yi wanted to take it first.
This was only one of them. There were still six others on the Battle Stage.
Who would be brave enough to collect all six swords?
A Knight wearing a shiny bone-colored armor holding a Dragon Bone Spear charged into the Heaven Realm Battle Stage and hoarsely yelled, “By the young master’s order, I have come to collect the Yellow God Emissary’s body. I hope Prince Zhang will allow me to do so.”
Having said this, the Knight walked toward Huang Shenyi’s body.
Di Yi always did things meticulously. He was evil yet he wanted to take the moral high ground.
Di Yi already made things very clear. He was only sending someone to collect the body and remains and was not fighting for the treasure.
If Zhang Ruochen got in the way of his plan, he would be showing disrespect to the dead.
If it were up to a very pedantic person, they may have watched helplessly as Di Yi sent someone to take away the Holy Weapon and body.
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “Since the Yellow God Emissary lost to me, everything of his should now belong to me. Are you openly stealing what is mine?”
As he said this, Zhang Ruochen stomped the ground with his foot and generated a powerful amount of Genuine Qi into the ground, sending the Six-hilt Divine Sword flying.
“Swoosh”
Immediately afterward, Zhang Ruochen swung his arm, sending out a burst of Genuine Qi which formed a wave, picking up the six-hilt golden Holy Sword.
Each sword shrunk rapidly and by the time they landed on Zhang Ruochen’s palm, they were only 6 centimeters long. They looked like six sword-shaped golden leaves.
The Knight huffed coldly and no longer put up with Zhang Ruochen’s actions.
With a turn of his arm, the Dragon Bone Spear in his hand began to spin quickly.
Red flames surged out of the tip of the spear, forming a spiral of light. It flew toward Zhang Ruochen’s palm, attempting to capture the Six-hilt Divine Swords.
For the Knight to have the courage to ascent to the Battle Stage and fight Zhang Ruochen for the Yellow God Emissary’s position, it was clear that he was a very valiant person.
When he had been in the Heaven Realm, he had been a top master. In fact, he was once in the top ten thousand of the Heaven Board.
Now, he had surpassed the limit of mortals and charged into the First Change in the Fish-dragon Realm, the “Innate Embryonic Breath”. His strength was now much more powerful than ever before.
In terms of fighting strength, he was a bit more powerful than Huang Shenyi who was at the Completion of the Heaven Realm. After all, he was one large Realm ahead of Huang Shenyi.
“You dare come within 10 meters of my sword? Are you really not afraid of it?”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were cold. He charged forward. Quickly drawing his sword, he swung downward.
Within the split second he struck, Zhang Ruochen caught a Time Mark and used it in the sword technique, demonstrating the Swift and Neat technique.
“Thud!”
The Abyss Ancient Sword disappeared into a streak of light and sliced through the Knight’s neck. It pierced through his armor and chopped his head off.
Blood gushed out of his neck like a column of water, staining half of the Battle Stage blood red.
The air was saturated with the stench of blood.
Zhang Ruochen’s gaze was sharp and he was confident in his chances of success. He scanned the Evil Warriors of the Black Market standing below him and said, “I will challenge whoever ascends the Heaven Realm Battle Stage and will not show mercy.”
Killing was prohibited in the Chaotic Millionverse Mountain, but the Heaven Realm Battle Stage was the only exception.
Zhang Ruochen had to establish his dominance and had to defeat the Evil Warriors of the Black Market decisively. Otherwise, there would be an endless stream of people ascending the Battle Stage to fight for Huang Shenyi’s body and remains.
Regardless of how powerful Zhang Ruochen was, there was a limit to the amount of Genuine Qi he could use.
He had to intimidate them through killing. Only then would they be afraid and not dare to ascend the Battle Stage.
“Zhang Ruochen, don’t be so arrogant. I, Bishui Cheng, will challenge you.”
Bishui Cheng rose from the Spectator Stand, spreading his arms. Genuine Qi poured out of his palms and formed Genuine Qi wings. Like a big bird, he landed on the Heaven Realm Battle Stage.
Zhang Ruochen glanced at Bishui Cheng standing across from him and said, “Bishui Cheng? The third on the Heaven Board. Bishui Cheng?”

“Yes, that is me.”
Bishui Cheng held his hands in front his chest whilst replying in a cold and arrogant manner.
Zhang Ruochen said, “As far as I know, you are not a warrior of the Black Market.”
Bishui Cheng glanced at Di Yi who stood below the Battle Stage and said, “Di Yi said that the person who brought back Huang Shenyi’s body and remains would become the new Yellow God Emissary but did not specify that the person had to be a warrior of the Black Market. Di Yi, I want to be the new Yellow God Emissary. This is possible, right?”
Di Yi laughed loudly and said, “Of course it is. You are very welcome to join. It is wise of you to choose the Black Market, as it is very admirable. However, Zhang Ruochen is very powerful and hard to defeat. You have to be careful.”
Bishui Cheng laughed coldly and said, “I am wearing the Bishui Holy Armor. Regardless of how advanced Zhang Ruochen’s sword technique is, it will be pointless if he is unable to break my armor. When his sword technique fails, how can he fight me?”
In Bishui Cheng’s opinion, Zhang Ruochen only had powerful sword techniques.
So long as Zhang Ruochen’s sword could not pierce through his armor, it should not be difficult to defeat him.
If he defeated Zhang Ruochen, he would not only be first on the Heaven Board and receive 12,410,000 military merits, but he would also become the Black Market’s Yellow God Emissary.
How could he miss this amazing opportunity of killing three birds with one stone?
Zhang Ruochen glanced at Bishui Cheng and saw that his body was indeed covered in a green armor. It looked as if the surface of his body was coated with pieces of crystal, covering his entire body and not leaving a single gap.
The Bishui Holy Armor was a Holy Weapon level armor. It was made of 9999 thousand-year-old turtle bones adorned complicated inscriptions inside. Not only did have powerful defensive powers, it also had a certain amount of offensive power.
A Holy Weapon level armor was even more precious and rare than a Holy Weapon level sword.
When compared with a Holy Weapon of the same level, the Holy Amor was 10 times more valuable than a Holy Sword.
Since he was wearing a Holy Armor, Bishui Cheng did not think very highly of Zhang Ruochen. He thought he was already invincible.
Bishui Cheng said, “Zhang Ruochen, you should hand over the Six-hilt Divine Sword and Huang Shenyi’s body now so that I wouldn’t have to come to get it.”
Zhang Ruochen smiled, “You are overly confident! Your strength is still very low. Without the Bishui Holy Armor, you probably wouldn’t be able to rank third on the Heaven Board.”
“You dare underestimate me?”
Bishui Cheng was very angry and his clenched his hands.
Since he was young, people have always looked up to him and praised him. No one had ever underestimated him like this.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I am not underestimating you, I am only speaking the truth. In fact, I won’t even need my sword to defeat you.”
“Zhang Ruochen, since you have insulted me, I will tear you into pieces.”
Bishui Chen quickly took three steps forward and charged toward Zhang Ruochen.
The Bishui Holy Armor reflected a blinding green light. With the push of Genuine Qi, the armor on Bishui Cheng’s fingers grew and transformed into sharp claws.
In that instant, the claws reached for Zhang Ruochen’s heart. Immediately after, a burst of strength surged through his arms and he tore toward both the left and right direction.
His claws charged to no avail, only piercing through empty air.
“Behind you.”
Zhang Ruochen stood behind Bishui Cheng and used the “Nine-folds of the Elephant Power” technique, exploding out with 12 times the power. He struck Bishui Cheng’s back.
“Boom!”
Bishui Cheng flew out face first, falling off the Battle Stage.
Laughter echoed through the Coliseum in mockery.
“He does not know his limits. What kind of a person is Zhang Ruochen? Bishui Cheng thought that wearing a Holy Armor would allow him to defeat Zhang Ruochen?” Zhuang Xingtian smiled while shaking his head.
Xun Long said coldly, “I am embarrassed that my rank on the Heaven Board is below his.”
Zhuang Xingtian said, “Given Brother Xun’s power, he should be ranked in the top three of the Heaven Board.”
Xun Long arrogantly said, “Following Huang Shenyi’s death, only Brother Xun and Zhuang Ruochen are worthy of being my opponents in this world.”
Zhuang Xingtian shook his head and pointed toward Di Yi’s direction, “Do you see the man wearing the mask? His name is Di Yi and he is the young master of the Black Market Excellence Hall. He is not even 18, yet his strength is unfathomable. Though he had once lost to Zhang Ruochen by half a move, his natural talents are not below that of Zhang Ruochen’s…”
“Brother Zhuang, look quickly. Bishui Cheng has ascended the Battle Stage again. Haha! What an idiot.”
Xun Long had no interest in Di Yi. He only considered Zhang Ruochen a worthy opponent.
Xun Long smiled and said, “The Bishui family was once a dominator in the southern domain and had given birth to over 10 Saints. It is a pity that they declined over the years. I thought that the birth of a talented man such as Bishui Cheng would revitalize the family, but I was wrong.”
On the Battle Stage.
Bishui Cheng roared, “Zhang Ruochen, I was careless just now, allowing you to defeat me. This time, you won’t stand a chance. Not only does my Bishui Holy Armor have strong defensive powers, it also has strong offensive powers. Try hitting me again. The power of the Holy Armor’s counterstrike is enough to break your palm.”
Zhang Ruochen’s furrowed his brows. He did not understand how Bishui Cheng was able to survive with such low intelligence. How could he be third on the Heaven Board?
Zhang Ruochen lost interest in him and did not wish to continue fighting him. Regretfully he said, “Bishui Cheng, you are overly dependent on the Bishui Holy Armor. You have long lost your way. Martial Arts is about refining your own body. Weapons and armor are, in the end, external things. If you don’t understand this, you will never be able to become a Saint no matter how talented you are.”
