“This can’t be! This isn’t possible! How are you still able to use your fate dippers?!” Feng Yezi yelled in terror as Ancestor Yun Lu’s clone shattered to bits. 

During the first ambush, those who carried out the attack basically verified that Kou Chongxue lost control over his fate dippers. All of them knew that his injuries wouldn’t be recovering at all.

Even though the second attack failed to claim Kou Chongxue’s life, they could basically confirm that he would die even without external interference. The disequilibrium between his fate dippers had become too large and he was barely holding on to his life.

What happened after Ancestor Yun Lu broke into the Tongyou Mysterious World destroyed everything they thought they knew about Kou Chongxue! 

With three moves, he destroyed Ancestor Yun Lu’s fate dipper clone! 

Only Martial Dipper Realm experts could kill other Martial Dipper Realm experts!

In other words, Kou Chongxue not only used his fate dipper to power his strikes. He might look just as haggard as he was earlier, but his condition didn’t seem to be deteriorating at all!

What could that possibly mean?! 

Did Kou Chongxue actually find a way to stabilize his fate dippers?! The repercussions if it did terrified even Feng Yezi. After all, he knew what would happen if Kou Chongxue returned to his peak.

Without bothering about his identity as a Martial Dipper Realm expert, he shook off Ji Wenlong before escaping with all his might back to the southwest.

A Martial Dipper Realm expert was running away!

He might know that even if Kou Chongxue found a way to stabilize his fate dippers, he wouldn’t be able to restore himself to his peak state in a short amount of time. He also knew that Kou Chongxue was an arrow at the end of its flight after killing Ancestor Yun Lu. As long as he continued to waste Ji Wenlong’s time, he would be able to suck away a lot of world origin from the Tongyou Mysterious World and obtain many treasures.

Even so, he chose to escape without hesitation.

With Ancestor Yun Lu’s clone shattered and Feng Yezi retreating, the signal sent couldn’t be clearer.

The Martial Extermination Realm experts who had come to attack the Tongyou Mysterious World scattered immediately. They ran in all directions, afraid that a slight delay would cost them their lives.

Even though Kou Chongxue looked to be in a bad situation, no one dared to test the only Martial Dipper Realm expert left. Even if he was at death’s door, he was still a Martial Dipper Realm expert!

“I would have to trouble a few of you to stop Wei Zhongwen and Yang Hu.” Ji Wenlong’s voice boomed through the air. He was a spent force after fighting Feng Yezi for such a long time.

If anyone had to say who felt the most anxious the moment Ancestor Yun Lu’s clone was destroyed, it would have to be Wei Zhongwen and Yang Hu.

The two of them tried to shake off Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci while making their desperate escape. They were experts in the third layer Martial Extermination Realm to begin with. Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci were far from able to stop them if they wished to escape.

However, a thin sword web filled the void right as they shook off Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci. The sword web shattered the space around it as it obstructed their escape.

“Yu Chengjin, how dare you stop me!” Wei Zhongwen roared with anger. 

The spatial cracks quickly restored themselves, but by the time they did, Yu Chengjin had appeared before the two of them. With a sword in hand and a frown on his face, Yu Chengjin growled, “Brother Wei, the actions of your White Deer Paradise are extremely despicable.” 

Out of everyone who came to assist the Tongyou Institution, Yu Chengjin and Wei Zhongwen were the two with the highest cultivation. Now that Wei Zhongwen had turned to the other side, Yu Chengjin was the strongest expert who wasn’t completely burned out on the side of the Tongyou Institution. He was the only one who had the ability to stop the two of them.

Wei Zhongwen turned around to release another attack to force Liu Qinglan away before growling, “Are you stopping me because of this shit reason? Do you know what stopping me means? Is your Jianmen Institution willing to become an enemy of my White Deer Paradise?” 

A snort left Yu Chengjin’s lips in response. “The holy lands have never bothered with any of our five continents who have dedicated ourselves to preventing the intrusion of the Azure Spiritual World. Your White Deer Paradise chose to forsake the You Continent today and you can easily do the same for the rest of us in the future.” 

“How is that the same?! The You Continent has always acted alone. They never intended to cooperate with us!” Wei Zhongwen roared.

“There’s no need to say anymore.” Yu Chengjin shut him up with a stream of thin sword qi.

Behind Wei Zhongwen, Liu Qinglan ignored the injuries she had suffered as she attacked them from the back.

Yang Hu, whose intestines were green with regret for siding with the White Deer Paradise, knew that he had to do something. Instead of attempting to escape on his own, he chose to assist Wei Zhongwen.

He knew that there was no path of retreat now. He chose to side with the White Deer Paradise and the Tongyou Institution wouldn’t let him off whether he escaped or not. Even though he was cursing Wei Zhongwen’s eighteen generations of ancestors, he still had to help the man.

The You Continent no longer had a place for him after the shit he pulled. If he wanted to safely leave the You Continent, he had to rely on the White Deer Paradise. Well, that was if they managed to live to see that day.

Before he could jump into the battle, they were surrounded by Han Chongwei, Shang Ke, Liu Zhuyuan, and Kang Ci. 

When Kou Chongxue appeared earlier, the Martial Extermination Realm experts who came to attack the Tongyou Mysterious World ran to the sidelines. The only exception was Wei Zhongwen and Yang Hu who were tasked to protect the bridge by Ancestor Yun Lu. 

When everyone’s attention was on Wei Zhongwen and Yang Hu, another figure was running sneakily in the southwest direction.

He only managed to travel several dozen miles before he was intercepted.

“Brother Chang, why are you in such a rush to leave? Why don’t you stay for a little while?” 

The person who stopped Chang Huaiwu might have hidden his appearance, but he took part in the battle earlier. He saved Mister Bu from Yang Hu earlier.

“Who the hell are you? Why are you getting in my way?!” Chang Huaiwu of the Yanmen Institution roared. As soon as Feng Yezi’s identity was revealed, he knew that his identity couldn’t be hidden from the others any longer. He knew he had to leave before the members of the Tongyou Institution hunted him down.

“I have something important to do right now and I have to return to my Yanmen Institution. I hope you don’t make things difficult for us?” 

The person who stood in Chang Huaiwu’s way took off his disguise and muttered, “Brother Chang, I’m afraid that you’re not planning to go back to the Yanmen Institution. You should be rushing over to the icy pool under the Linya Cliff, right?” 

“It’s you!” Chang Huaiwu gasped when he saw the masked man’s appearance. “I should have expected this. Since Kou Chongxue didn’t die, you wouldn’t have met your end either, Shang Lubing!” 

A smile appeared on Shang Lubing’s face, but he didn’t say anything in response.

As Chang Huaiwu’s expression fluctuated unsteadily, he seemed to be making some sort of decision in his mind. 

“Maybe Elder Chang can help me to understand how my martial nephew You Haibiao died. What is your relationship with the evil remnants anyway?” An elderly voice rang from behind Chang Huaiwu all of a sudden.

…

As the battle drew to a close outside the Tongyou Mysterious World, the four strongest experts who had exhausted a huge portion of their energy gathered in the nearly destroyed Mountain and Sea Fantasy Spiritual World.

Yun Jing felt a bad premonition filling her heart when she saw Kou Chongxue leaning against his sword. She quickly stepped forward to assist him. The moment she supported him, her expression changed and she yelled in fright. “Why are you utilizing your origin energy?!” 

Her yelp caused Shang Bo and Ji Wenlong to hasten their steps.

When they arrived near him, Ji Wenlong frowned while looking in the direction of the rose-colored bridge. “What’s the point of maintaining the connection with your own energy?”

“What?!” Yun Jing yelled once again as she tried to sever the connection between Kou Chongxue and the bridge.

However, he nudged her away before vomiting out a mouthful of blood. He chuckled a little hoarsely, “This is such a good opportunity. People are scheming against us all the time. It’s not our style to take a beating passively. An eye for an eye. That’s my style!”

He forced a smile before taking out the Fantasy Spiritual Pearl and addressing Yun Jing. “Relax. The extermination origin in here can sustain me for some time.” 

Coughing softly, Shang Bo asked, “Is this the idea the brat gave you? Is it really possible for you to fix the problem this way? Anyway, the extermination origin inside the pearl won’t be able to last that long. Not to mention the fact that you would have to take on the burden anyway!” 

Ji Wenlong muttered at the side, “So what is your plan exactly?” 

Kou Chongxue said weakly, “Since the White Deer Paradise is able to steal our world origin, we can make use of the connection to steal their foundations!” 

“You’re crazy!” Yun Jing yelled.

“This isn’t part of the plan! We already stopped their plot against us and you stripped Yun Lu of a fate dipper. He will be seriously injured, but he’s not the only Martial Dipper Realm expert in the White Deer Paradise!” 

Shang Bo thought about it for a second and muttered, ‘Is this why you called us over? You wish to gather all of our strength to carry out the plan?” 

“Yeah. I thought about it at the last second. However, I won’t be able to do it alone.” Kou Chongxue sighed.

Ji Wenlong was clearly against the idea as he snapped at the two of them, “No! This is too dangerous!” 

“Dangerous? How many risks have we taken in the past 20 years?” Kou Chongxue coughed twice and continued, “By the way, did you complete the deduction on my advancement formula? Are you able to use it?” 

Ji Wenlong retrieved a scroll from his sleeves that was made up of an unknown material before sighing, “Yeah. We basically completed the basic deduction for the rest of the formula. As for whether I will succeed or not… Everything has to be left up to fate!” 

Yun Jing, Shang Bo, and even Kou Chongxue turned to stare at him in shock.

However, a bitter smile soon appeared on Ji Wenlong’s face. “In order to complete this scroll, I used more than a third of the world origin we absorbed…” 

“What?! That much?” Yun Jing gasped.

Shang Bo quickly added, “Perhaps that’s the reason why only holy lands are able to support the existence of a Martial Dipper Realm expert…” 

A sinister smile soon appeared on Kou Chongxue’s face. “Since that’s the case, we’ll have to make up for it by absorbing more energy from the White Deer Paradise!”
