The Nine-step Saint King Is Picking a Fight

The saintly might of a Nine-Step Saint King was stirring up a storm as far as hundreds of miles away.

Dark clouds had swollen in the sky, blocking out the sun.

On Earth, the wind was howling like a horror beast, Saint Qi of Heaven and Earth seemingly boiling.

"Hand of Brilliance!"

Venerable Hiddenheart's sole arm was a riot of color. As he struck out with his hand, shock waves formed in front of his palm and moved down toward Zhang Ruochen below.

Hand of Brilliance was Jingmiao-class, intermediate Saint technique. When used together with Precepts of the Palm, it was incredibly powerful.

Facing the powerful move, Zhang Ruochen could have used a Dimensional Shift to escape back to the Royal Mountain. Even the cultivators from the Fane of Youshen were expecting him to do so.

Nevertheless, he stood unmoved on the spot with the Saint Qi forcefully revolving in his body.
