With the fearsome amount of world origin and pure heaven and earth qi around them, Shang Pei’s breakthrough didn’t experience any obstruction at all. 

The aura around her started to rise as a deep green light started to fill the spirit cave. The milky white mist in the air was starting to be stained deep green, and Shang Xia understood that she had already crossed the most dangerous part of her breakthrough.

Of course, that didn’t mean that she had successfully broken through. A cultivator would need some time to properly breakthrough and consolidate their foundations. However, the most dangerous period was when they just ingested their advancement medicine and started to refine their extermination origin.

Their dantian would experience a fundamental transformation, and a cultivator would become the weakest at that moment. Their requirement for heaven and earth qi would be terrifying, and if they were unable to balance the amount they absorbed with what they could take in, they might experience cultivation deviation!

Luckily, Shang Pei managed to cross that stage without much difficulty. She was in the grand completion stage of the Martial Intent Realm when she broke through, and she was able to quickly consolidate her foundations!

Throughout the entire process, Shang Pei could tell that her dantian was slowly transforming. She could also tell that Shang Xia had been observing the change with his divine sense. She did nothing to hide it.

The transformation she experienced might be very different from what Shang Xia would when he entered the Martial Extermination Realm in the future, but no one could deny that he was gaining valuable experience.

As the amount of world origin rushing into the spirit cave lowered in intensity, the spirit cave was no longer bursting with energy like before. Luckily, she had already completed the most dangerous part of her breakthrough.

Since there was nothing much for him left to observe, Shang Xia turned his attention away from Shang Pei. Instead, he started to wonder how Kou Chongxue was doing. 

…

In the White Deer Paradise…

Under the suppression of both Hua Lu and Yun Lu, Kou Chongxue discovered that the situation was slowly starting to turn against him.

He was trying his best to deal with the two of them. However, they had already grasped the best way to fight with him. They were working together seamlessly to use the assistance of the White Deer Paradise to suppress Kou Chongxue’s tyrannical strength.

Under such circumstances, they could only force Kou Chongxue back bit by bit. Since Kou Chongxue wasn’t at his peak state, he couldn’t last for long under their suppression.

The battle between both sides was dragged out with Kou Chongxue defending with everything he had. Those from the White Deer Paradise could only watch as their foundations drained out of the White Deer Spring. It might be bad, but it was the best they could do for now!

Their attacks against Kou Chongxue became stronger as they wanted to drive him out as quickly as they could in order to lessen their loss.

With his many years of experience, Kou Chongxue could feel the subtle shift in the space around him and discovered that a massive calamity was about to descend. The White Deer Paradise seemed to be plotting against him as the two ancestors suppressed him!

Turning away from the White Deer Spring, Kou Chongxue decisively gave it up! He turned to flee out of the White Deer Paradise. 

His movements were too quick. None of them expected him to run without the slightest bit of warning!

According to Yun Lu and Hua Lu, Kou Chongxue would be able to hold on for a lot longer! In their eyes, he would want to take away as much world origin as he could. Who would have thought that he would turn to run when the battle was at its climax?!

“Where the hell are you going?!” Yun Lu roared as his figure appeared to block Kou Chongxue. A rod came crashing down from the void towards his head.

“Do you think our White Deer Paradise is a place you can come and go as you please?!” Hua Lu’s voice came from the skies as the jade hill that appeared earlier reappeared in the skies above Kou Chongxue.

The only difference was that she didn’t smash it at him. She tossed it towards the entrance in an attempt to seal it off!

“Haha! You guys are definitely plotting against me!” Kou Chongxue roared with laughter. “Are you planning to trap me here so you can slowly wear me down? You must be dreaming!” 

A trace of danger filled Kou Chongxue’s heart as he was talking. It seemed as though he was right! They definitely prepared some sort of devious plan to deal with him! There was no way he could remain in the White Deer Paradise.

Twisting his body around, his clone turned into a streak of light that returned to his Hidden Frost Sword. A blinding glow appeared around the blade of the sword and it turned into a streak of light that tore through space to appear in front of Yun Lu.

“Bang!” A crisp blast rang through the White Deer Paradise as Yun Lu’s staff was broken in half.

That wasn’t all. The Hidden Frost Sword made a beautiful arc through the skies and slashed at Yun Lu’s face.

Grunting in fright, Yun Lu could only raise his broken staff to protect himself. He didn’t even dream of suppressing the Hidden Frost Sword with his broken weapon.

However, it was a beautiful feint as Kou Chongxue controlled the sword to turn away at the last moment to brush past Yun Lu.

“Stop him!” Yun Lu yelled when he discovered that he had misjudged the situation. He slammed his broken staff down in an attempt to pincer Kou Chongxue with Hua Lu’s weapon at the entrance of the White Deer Paradise.

“Kou Chongxue, there’s no escape! Leave your clone behind!” Hua Lu snorted as she directed her weapon to work together with Yun Lu to stop Kou Chongxue. The jade hill started moving again as it came crashing down on the Hidden Frost Sword.

If it truly managed to come into contact with the Hidden Frost Sword, Kou Chongxue would truly be in trouble. Hua Lu was borrowing the power of the White Deer Paradise to suppress him and even if his true body arrived, he might not be able to fight back against the pressure that came from the entire White Deer Paradise alone! 

“Kou Chongxue, give up!” Yun Lu snorted as he raised his caution level to the max. He knew that Kou Chongxue would pull some moves out of desperation and he had to stop it.

A mocking laughter tore through the White Deer Paradise at that moment and Kou Chongxue’s voice boomed in the ears of both Martial Dipper Realm ancestors. “Too naive!” 

Their hearts sank once they heard what he said.

Before they could realize what they left out earlier, Kou Chongxue roared in a sinister manner, “Explode!” 

Boom!

A massive explosion tore through the White Deer Paradise as it trembled violently.

The world origin that stopped leaking out of the White Deer Paradise due to Kou Chongxue running away from the White Deer Spring caused the explosion. The eye of the formation shattered beyond belief from the explosion.

It seemed as though Kou Chongxue’s methods were truly vicious. He directly caused serious damage to the White Deer Paradise with that explosion. A giant hole appeared in the White Deer Paradise as energy poured out of it unceasingly. Kou Chongxue seemed to have unleashed a giant waterfall of energy over the Ji Continent with whatever he just did.

“Kou Chongxue!” 

“My White Deer Paradise will not stop until we kill you, you madman!” 

Hua Lu and Yun Lu roared as curses flew out of their mouths. They had no choice but to stop whatever plan they had to force him to stay. They quickly controlled the world origin in the White Deer Paradise to patch up the hole. No matter what, they couldn’t allow the White Deer Paradise to suffer more damage.

“Hahahahahahaha, Yun Lu, Hua Lu, blame yourselves for plotting against my Tongyou Institution. You brought this upon yourself!” Kou Chongxue’s annoying laughter came from the Hidden Frost Sword as it flew out of the White Deer Paradise. Without the support of the world origin, Hua Lu’s jade hill couldn’t stop him. He flung it away before shooting through the exit.

A ray of gray light emerged from the void as it tried to strike the Hidden Frost Sword.

It was too bad Kou Chongxue already expected as much. His fate dipper clone condensed above the blade before swinging his sword at the incoming gray light.

When they came into contact with each other, a huge blast covered the skies. “Old man Xuan Lu, I knew it! Haha! Who would have thought that you wouldn’t improve even after so many years? You’re still the same as before… What a disappointment!” 

Raising his head, a trace of mockery could be seen in his eyes. Even so, his clone shifted slightly in mid air as he got ready to deal with any sudden change in the situation.

A figure clad in gray robes appeared not too far away and a strange look could be seen on his face when he looked at Kou Chongxue. “Kou Chongxue, you must be insane to come knocking in my White Deer Paradise. Did you solve the problem with your fate dippers?” 

“Xuan Lu, I knew you were part of those assholes who came to attack me!” A frosty light flashed through Kou Chongxue’s eyes and he sneered in response.

“Everyone knew what happened to you. There’s no need to go around biting everyone you see. However, if you wish to blame me for what happened to you, I won’t deny it.” Xuan Lu growled.

The sneer on Kou Chongxue’s face grew wider but he stole another glance at the gray whip that Xuan Lu was holding in his hand before a trace of hesitation appeared in his eyes. Turning around, he started to flee again.

“Do you think you can escape after coming all the way here?!” Xuan Lu snorted once before swinging his whip again. It extended towards the Hidden Frost Sword in an attempt to trap it in mid air.

Who would have thought that Kou Chongxue would transform into a stream of light that fell into the White Deer River right before Xuan Lu’s whip could wrap itself around him? 

With his eyes widening slightly, Xuan Lu’s figure flashed and he appeared above the White Deer River. “Illusory arts?!” 

Muttering softly to himself, Xuan Lu’s expression quickly sank. “No… This somewhat resembles the aura of the Water Origin Fate Dipper!” 

Two other figures tore through the skies to arrive beside Xuan Lu at that moment.

“Senior Brother Xuan Lu?” Hua Lu’s eyes lit up when she saw him. “Where’s that damn thief?” 

Xuan Lu’s face sank once again and he looked at Yun Lu who was much weaker than before. “You separated your Water Origin Fate Dipper from yourself?!”
