…

On the Tongyou Peak in the battlefield between the two worlds…

Shang Bo stood alone above the main Tongyou Peak as he faced several enemies.

“Bang… Rattle, rattle…” The final chains that connected the bridges around the main peak and the six auxiliary peaks finally shattered as thick chain links fell to the ground below. Massive boulders that were used to hold the bridges in place tumbled down the various peaks.

“Shang Bo, the protection formation around the Tongyou Peak is broken. Are you going to remain stubborn and fight to the end?” A thick pillar of light charged into the Tongyou Peak and slammed into Shang Bo who was standing as steady as a mountain at the top of the main Tongyou Peak.

The solemn expression on Shang Bo’s face thawed and a sneer took its place. “Dumbass… You overestimated yourself!” 

His Nine Firefly Lance shot into the ground below and when it hit, a massive shockwave swept through the land. With the Tongyou Peak in the center, the shockwave spread at a visible speed and caused the surrounding space to twist.

“Crash…” The broken chains seemed to resemble a sleeping serpent that was awakened by Shang Bo’s actions. They rose into the air again to form a massive net that covered the Tongyou Peak.

Did the protection formation of the Tongyou Peak really shatter?

The protection barrier that surrounded the Tongyou Peak was no longer there, but that didn’t mean that the protection formation was destroyed. Instead, it was a trap laid down by Shang Bo. Without the protection barrier, he expected his opponent to charge into the Tongyou Peak recklessly. He was right.

“Not good!” The Martial Extermination Realm expert who rushed into the Tongyou Peak released several rays of light to surround himself as he tried to retreat.

“Since you came, there’s no need to think of leaving.” Shang Bo grunted and his steadfast figure that had remained at the top of the main Tongyou Peak soared into the skies for the first time. The first move he released possessed earth-shattering might.

“Die!” Shang Bo’s yell created a massive soundwave that tore through the air. In an instant, it echoed countless times in the space above the main Tongyou Peak.

The chains that filled the air whipped towards the Martial Extermination Realm expert of the Azure Spiritual World on his command. Even though they weren’t strong enough to injure him, they were more than enough to restrict his movements. With their interference, he was unable to avoid Shang Bo’s Nine Firefly Lance!

As the specks of light started to gather together, the Nine Firefly Lance pierced through space and appeared right in front of the cultivator’s eyes.

“Help…” Circulating all his inner qi to defend himself, he didn’t forget to call for him from his companions. Unfortunately, it was too late. He was sent flying by Shang Bo’s lance and blood flowed uncontrollably down his lips. A red crescent was drawn in the air by his blood.

At the same time, several rays of light appeared above the Tongyou Peak. One of the rays transformed into a massive palm that grabbed the cultivator who was flying away while another transformed into a giant hammer that smashed down towards the Tongyou Peak.

With a cold snort, Shang Bo seemed to ignore the hammer as he used his divine sense to control the metal chains to grab the cultivator who was flying away.

At the same time, he seemed to become one with his lance as he leaped through space to charge at his target.

Clearly, Shang Bo wanted to kill the Martial Extermination Realm expert from the Azure Spiritual World. 

“Please, save me!” The cultivator roared in fright as his movements were restricted yet again. The giant palm that was reaching towards him tore the chains out one by one and deep rumblings filled the air once again.

However, it couldn’t change a thing. Shang Bo’s Nine Firefly Lance ripped through the space and the man and weapon duo appeared right in front of the cultivator he struck. They were so close that Shang Bo could see the look of despair in his eyes.

“Ah…!” A miserable cry ran through the air and Shang Bo’s lance stabbed straight through his target’s body. A four colored light emerged from the lance and destroyed any signs of life left.

Above the Tongyou Peak, Shang Bo casually flicked his wrist as the Martial Extermination Realm expert from the Azure Spiritual World who was at the third layer fell to the ground, never to open his eyes again.

As he fell, rays of extermination origin emerged from his wound and wrapped his body into a cocoon, turning him into a multicolored comet that shot towards the foot of the mountain. Before his body could hit the ground, it exploded to send frightening amounts of heaven and earth qi rippling through the surrounding area of the Tongyou Peak. 

Several snaps followed his demise as the massive palm in the air tore several more chains out from the Tongyou Peak. Two of the six auxiliary peaks were also riddled with holes and they were on the verge of collapse.

On the other side, the giant hammer that was created with a three colored extermination origin slammed heavily into the main peak. As the mountain trembled violently, a massive chunk flew off subsequently.

Even under their combined attempt to save him, Shang Bo managed to kill a Martial Extermination Realm expert at the third layer. His act was a stinging slap to those from the Azure Spiritual World.

“Extermination Origins returning to one, large completion stage of the Martial Extermination Realm! Shang Bo, you need to die!” 

…

In the depths of the Thousand Leaf Mountain Range, at the source of a mountain river…

Li Tianshou shattered the White Deer Carving he was carrying and a spiritual deer entered the thick mist Shang Xia was hiding in.

The little carving was extremely precious. Li Tianshou’s heart was aching when he destroyed it. However, he was also confident that the spiritual deer could get rid of all his troubles.

“Senior Brother Li, that spiritual deer…” Junior Brother Lu managed to escape death earlier and barely managed to stabilize his emotions when he saw what Li Tianshou did. A look of envy could be seen in his eyes.

Glancing at Junior Brother Lu from the corner of his eye, Li Tianshou growled, “Yeah. Master gave it to me. I was supposed to use it when breaking through to the Martial Extermination Realm.”

“That’s such a waste!” Junior Brother Lu couldn’t help but sigh.

However, Li Tianshou explained solemnly, “The spiritual deer can be considered to be an existence invincible under the Martial Extermination Realm. Moreover, it should be able to collect the extermination mist in the surroundings to reform itself when it’s done…” Pausing for a second, he continued reluctantly, “It’s a pity the Spirit Extermination Gourd isn’t here. Otherwise, I’ll be able to obtain a second treasure that can collect extermination qi! Fuck! Shang Xia is really a piece of work alright… Who would have thought that he could come up with a plan to escape at the last second?” 

Junior Brother Lu balked in his heart after hearing what Li Tianshou said. 

Pity my ass! We’re going to die if you don’t release the spiritual deer. What’s the point of saving the treasures if we’re all dead?

Naturally, he couldn’t reveal his thoughts to Li Tianshou. Instead, he maintained his pitiful expression and he muttered, “Senior Brother, are we going to not do anything?” 

“Why don’t you try going in there?” Li Tianshou raised an eyebrow and looked at Junior Brother Lu like he was looking at a clown who was tired of living.

Chuckling once, Junior Brother Lu added, “Why don’t we get the spiritual deer to lure him out before joining hands to…” 

“Relax. The spiritual deer will be able to absorb the extermination mist soon. When it’s done, he won’t have a place to hide anymore!” Li Tianshou muttered.

Junior Brother Lu’s eyes lit up instantly. “I was too rash. I didn’t expect Senior Brother Li to already have a plan!” 

Waving his hand, Li Tianshou sighed, “It’s alright…” 

Junior Brother Lu interrupted Li Tianshou before he could finish his sentence. “But… Why isn’t anything happening? It seems a little too quiet…” 

Li Tianshou’s expression sank after hearing what he said. Staring at the thick layer of mist in front of him, he tried to remain calm as he gave Junior Brother Lu an explanation. “The mist might be too thick, suppressing the fluctuation of heaven and earth qi. It’s also possible that the spiritual deer decided to absorb the extermination qi in the mist before doing anything…” 

With a look of confusion on his face, Junior Brother Lu asked, “That’s weird. If the spiritual deer is absorbing the extermination qi in the mist, the mist should be getting thinner, isn’t that so?” 

Li Tianshou forced himself to remain calm as he thought of another explanation. “Maybe… Maybe it hasn’t found Shang Xia? I don't know?!”

A weird energy fluctuation tore through the mist all of a sudden and their smoky surroundings started to boil. 

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

Jumping back in fright, Li Tianshou and Junior Brother Lu gasped in fright. At the same time, a look of confusion appeared on their faces.

“Wait, the spiritual deer couldn’t find him?” 

“No! That’s the sign of divine sense transformation! What the hell! He only completed his second round of divine sense transformation when he fought us earlier!”
