Chapter 1784: Chapter 1781: A Life for a Life

"What’s going on?"

Shi Yuan stared in shock at the Teleportation Channel Entrance, crying out.

Everyone’s faces were full of astonishment; no one knew what was happening.

They saw a vast pressure surging out from that Teleportation Channel Entrance, powerful energy constantly roiling within. The Laws inside the entire channel seemed to be facing some enormous provocation, as if they were about to collapse.

It was just that the Core Formation Cultivators of Lingxiao Sect, Flame Moon Sect, and Great Dao Sect who had originally been stationed here were no longer present; otherwise, they would definitely have remembered that scene from a few years ago.

This situation was exactly the same as when the Realm Barrier Laws had risen back then. ℯ

Only now it looked even more intense.

Back then, after this phenomenon occurred, the Realm Barrier inside the Transmission Channel had risen from Foundation Establishment Stage to Core Formation Stage, and from then on, Core Formation Stage Cultivators were also able to pass through.

Although Dong Huang Jing and Lü Qiu Zhong didn’t understand this situation, when they saw the violent energy fluctuations within the Transmission Channel, a vague sense of foreboding arose in their hearts.

Could that guy have chased after them?

How could he be so fast?

The two of them had used a Thousand-mile Divine Travel Talisman to precisely lock onto the Teleportation Channel Entrance on Earth’s side, then immediately fled back to the Southern Domain, hence their speed.

Only a short moment had passed, and that Nascent Soul cultivator from Earth had already chased over?

No, that’s wrong!

This Transmission Channel had a powerful Realm Barrier that even Divinity Transformation Realm and Unity Realm Stage Masters couldn’t solve, allowing only Core Formation Stage Cultivators to pass through. Even if that Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator from Earth could timely catch up to the channel entrance on the other side, it should be impossible for him to transmit across.

Buzz!

Buzz, buzz... ℓ.

The energy fluctuations inside that Transmission Channel grew increasingly violent. Though the four Divinity Transformation Realm Masters were cowed by that vast pressure and dared not approach too closely, their powerful senses could still vaguely perceive some of the situation.

"It seems like the Laws inside are changing..." Shen Canglan exclaimed.

Xiao Shuhui, Shi Yuan, and that Ji Changyuan from the Yan Family also revealed expressions of tension.

They had only been cooperating with Earth for a few years; the benefits they were receiving were quietly changing the forces behind each of them. As long as they could stabilize this situation and secretly develop for a few hundred years, their factions would definitely rise to another level among the future Five Immortal Domains.

If this Transmission Channel in front of them underwent some accident and cut off exchanges between the two sides, the loss would be too great.

But very quickly, their worries in their hearts dissipated.

The Realm Laws inside this Transmission Channel were indeed undergoing some sort of change, yet there was no real possibility of collapsing; the spatial structure of the channel remained stable.

Boom!

No one knew how long had passed when a muffled thunder-like sound rang out from the depths of the Transmission Channel, and everything returned to calm.

Just as everyone let out a sigh of relief, their vision blurred.

A figure flashed out.

The four Divinity Transformation Realm Masters immediately locked onto the newcomer and were instantly taken aback.

"Yang Fei?"

Xiao Shuhui was the first to cry out in delighted surprise.

Shen Canglan also looked at Yang Fei in astonishment, then laughed and said, "So it’s you, brat."

Shi Yuan and Ji Changyuan had also seen Yang Fei before and recognized him at a glance.

Ji Changyuan’s face showed a look of shocked suspicion, as though he hadn’t expected Yang Fei to have truly returned to Earth, and furthermore to appear here again via this Transmission Channel.

In the midst of Shi Yuan’s astonishment, his pupils suddenly contracted fiercely, his gaze falling on the figure Yang Fei was carrying beside him.

"Wait, aren’t you already at Nascent Soul Formation? How... how can you come through as well?" Xiao Shuhui suddenly thought of something and stared at Yang Fei in shocked confusion.

The others, reminded by him, also snapped out of their daze.

Right.

This kid’s current Realm was clearly Nascent Soul Formation; how did he get here?

Also, a few days ago the Southern Domain Cultivators had sent back news that Yang Fei had formed his Nascent Soul and appeared in Earth’s White Jade City.

Regarding this point, the few of them had been doubtful.

After all, the only path connecting the two realms was the one before their eyes, and Yang Fei had originally followed Guanglingzi to Shang Qing Sect. All these years, the four Divinity Transformation Realm Masters had been sitting here in oversight; they could confirm that Yang Fei had never returned to Earth via this place.

So through what route had he gone back to Earth?

The few of them, eyes flickering with great doubt, swept their gazes over Yang Fei.

Could there be another hidden channel?

Or rather, did this kid have some enormous secret on him?

While these questions were swirling through everyone’s minds, Yang Fei flung Sang Qiu’s corpse onto the ground.

A Peak of Late Stage Core Formation expert had been captured by Yang Fei with no chance to fight back. After Yang Fei had chased down the other two killers, he had crushed Sang Qiu’s throat with his own hands right before the four Divinity Transformation Realm Masters, ending his life.

A wisp of Divine Soul immediately fled from Sang Qiu’s body.

Snap!

A silver light flashed as the Soul Binding Rope whipped through the void, suppressing this wisp of Divine Soul on the spot.

A sharp aura suddenly burst out from Shi Yuan’s body, locking onto Yang Fei.

Yet almost at the same instant, Xiao Shuhui’s figure flickered and he stepped in between the two.

Shen Canglan and Ji Changyuan likewise flashed over, standing opposite Shi Yuan.

Behind Shi Yuan, Dong Huang Jing and Lü Qiu Zhong looked at Sang Qiu’s corpse lying on the ground and trembled uncontrollably.

Senior Brother Sang Qiu just... died like that?

This was a Peak of Late Stage Core Formation expert. Even if the two of them were Second Generation Immortals, with more life-saving means than Sang Qiu, if they truly faced Sang Qiu head-on, they might be able to survive, but it would be extremely difficult to kill him.

Yet now, their senior brother had died right before their eyes.

The two abruptly lifted their heads to stare at Yang Fei. Lü Qiu Zhong’s eyes reddened as he roared, "Bastard, Senior Brother Sang Qiu is an Inner Sect Disciple of my Wangxian Sect and the chief disciple my father personally took under his tutelage. You... you dare kill him?"

Though Shi Yuan was blocked by the three powerhouses, he still couldn’t suppress the anger in his heart and barked, "Yang Fei, why did you kill my Wangxian Sect disciple for no reason? Do you truly think that with Shang Qing Sect backing you, you can do whatever you want?"

"The ones doing whatever they want are you lot!"

Yang Fei retorted immediately.

When he had personally watched Ge Zhe and the other four being slaughtered by three Southern Domain Cultivators, his anger had completely erupted.

At that time, he had decisively struck, directly seizing Sang Qiu. Unfortunately, the other two reacted too quickly and used a Divine Talisman to Tunneling-escape; even though his Realm was higher than theirs and he had the advantage of Earth’s Laws, he still hadn’t been able to keep those two right away.

Carrying Sang Qiu with him as he pursued all the way here, Yang Fei had learned from the Earth Cultivators guarding the Teleportation Channel Entrance that the two had already fled back to the Southern Domain. Yang Fei had only pondered for a brief moment before immediately chasing after them.

The Realm Barrier of this Transmission Channel would change according to his Realm; once his Realm increased, every time he traversed this channel, the Realm Barrier would expand.

He had originally not wanted to change this state of affairs, yet at this moment, in the blaze of his fury, he no longer cared.

Compared to the enormous threat and pressure that allowing Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators to go to Earth would bring, this matter before him had to be dealt with properly. If this precedent was set, then even if Nascent Soul Cultivators could not go to Earth, simply by virtue of the sheer number of Southern Domain Core Formation Cultivators, once those Core Formation Cultivators were able to slaughter freely on Earth, it would be an apocalyptic disaster for the Earth Cultivators.

So rather than worrying that even stronger Southern Domain Cultivators might go over and face threats later, it was better to make the Southern Domain understand right now: break the rules, and no matter who you are, you will pay a price you cannot bear.

Only in this way could they truly instill scruples in the Southern Domain Cultivators heading for Earth.

"These two killed five Earth Cultivators to seize Earth’s resources. For murder they must pay with their lives. They must die!" Yang Fei gripped the Soul Binding Rope and pointed at Dong Huang Jing and Lü Qiu Zhong behind Shi Yuan as he spoke.
