Chapter 968 - 904: The Battle for Vindication

To be honest, up to this day, facing such a situation.

Wujiu feels that if even their second and third halls must be reduced to pawns, then Yama Hall is basically wasted.

If even they must become pawns, then those below must become pawns among pawns.

Moreover, Wujiu is not willing to be a pawn, having endured for thousands of years in the third hall, should he just die?

Don’t even think about it!

He’s in this state, let alone Jiu You.

Plus, he was the first to identify something strange about the First Hall, his suspicion must have already rooted deep within him.

"First have those below test the waters, if all goes well, gather as many rules as possible. Regardless of how situations shift, it will secure our survival."

When Yin Wo returns to his Western Territory Dao Palace, a gigantic screen appears before him, reflecting a barren world devoid of former vitality.

"Master, everything has been arranged."

No sound emits from within, yet Yin Wo humbly reports by the side.

"I’ve exposed the matter of 3,000 rules at Celestial Dao Sect. Thanks to Uncle Master’s young disciple precedent, those four guys probably have other thoughts now."

"I’ve also brought up Han Yu and the Heavenly Dao puppet matter, there should be countermeasures on that end."

"As for our side, I’ve already had the Second and Third Halls send people across Central Continent to gather those 3,000 Dao rules."

Finally, a soft voice conveys, "Good!"

With just one word, Yin Wo bows with joy.

This demonstrates Master’s approval of his arrangements, bringing him delight.

Though there’s an uncertainty, like revealing the rule he possesses, this could be a significant move.

"Will Uncle Master just take action upon realizing you lack a rule?"

After a moment’s silence, the voice within the screen continues nonchalantly.

"No, having suffered before millennia ago, Heaven wouldn’t foolishly act to let Dao gain advantage again."

Silently nodding, Yin Wo poses another question, "When will your plan begin?"

"Wait!"

Once the single word echoes, the screen vanishes, prompting Yin Wo to bow once more before withdrawing silently.

...

Simultaneously across regions of Central Continent, turmoil like never before transpires, with cultivators traversing back and forth across the Eastern, Western, Southern, and Northern Territories.

Clashes frequently ensue, morphing landscapes into a shadow of their former selves.

Although viewed as mere pawns by strong figures like Han Yu, these cultivators are of the Walking Realm, once deemed unattainable.

Such cultivators can effortlessly obliterate regions, their every move can ravage mountains and rivers.

The presence of these cultivators across Central Continent foreshadows immense destruction.

The increasing scale of battles draws in more combatants, amplifying the size relentlessly.

When Ye Hei and his group arrive, they witness a large-scale skirmish among hundreds, prompting them to halt and land swiftly.

After observing the battle, Ou Mingdong moves slightly forward, "Senior Brother, it seems they are contesting for something?"

Ye Hei ponders and promptly glances back at Chasing Soul pursuing them.

Oh... It ought not to be Chasing Soul, rather a clone of it.

It naturally integrates, having mingled well with Central Continent people.

Oddly, Heaven and Earth Four Division Skill seems off in Chasing Soul’s possession.

For example, he feels helpless as it’s always him; dying this time only to emerge next time again.

Thus he lacks fear of death but simultaneously dreads that his stupid self may acquire this unhealthy habit, making his demise disastrous.

Assigned to notify these people due to the rule issue, Central Continent is compelled to alter plans.

Besides seeking traces of Heavenly Dao, rule matters also require attention.

"Let it be, I’ll handle it! You guard here for now."

Unable to refrain, Chasing Soul sits cross-legged, immediately entering the former Inquisition Heart, a profound sensation whisking him to another realm.

Yet the Inquisition Heart Illusion Realm appears void already.

The traces of his dispersed soul’s image have vanished upon its erasure.

This location isn’t his target, so he traverses within this world, suddenly a peculiar power faintly emerges in one spot.

Attempting to investigate, he abruptly gets drawn out by that power.

"Damn! It even punches."

Unaware of specifics regarding rules, since his original self mingles with Mo Family boy, knowing only to evade workshops.

The original self knows nothing, making his knowledge even less probable.

If not short of hands, he wouldn’t need to visit that workshop seeking the original self.

Naturally grumbling, Quan Xiaotong likely admires him for reviving easily, assigning him for protection.

After all, Central Continent’s mechanisms and Dharma Aspects are thoroughly mastered by this outsider, astonishingly.

Getting knocked out of Inquisition Heart state by rules, Chasing Soul immediately rises, eyes darting around wildly before pointing to the void.

"Right at that position, there’s a rule."

Ye Hei immediately prepared to take action, signalling a hundred-member team to quietly get ready and move forward.

At the same time, Chasing Soul also pulled out the token given to him by Mo Xiuwen and pressed it furiously, shouting into it.

"Anyone near the Eastern Territory and Southern Border, get over here quickly. There are hundreds of Walking Realm cultivators fighting for the rules, come and pick up the scraps."

After doing all this, he looked up and was startled.

The reason was that he thought this group of youngsters might launch a sneak attack, but unexpectedly, they were so aggressive, directly charging in after bursting out.

"Looks like Han Yu being so fierce isn’t an exception! Central Continent people are all quite rash."

Especially since these are the most outstanding of the younger generation from Central Continent.

Chasing Soul, after a little activity of his hands and feet, also entered his exclusive Dharma Aspect, just as he wanted to test how strong the Mo Family kid’s modified Dharma Aspect was.

Meanwhile, both sides of the cultivators, engaging in a melee, suddenly felt a turn of events, as a line of meteors shot up in an instant.

In just one encounter, a magic sword suddenly appeared and vanished like a ghost, flying out in a strange trajectory.

The next moment, an unfortunate Yama Hall cultivator stared dumbfounded at his own kidney area, bloody and mangled. Although the damage wasn’t much, the insult was intense.

Just as a nameless fury arose, suddenly a splash of water splashed towards him, initially thought to be ordinary water, it turned out to be a deadly move. In almost the blink of an eye, the water consumed him like a monster.

The next moment, after spitting the person out, the cultivator was utterly exhausted, as if drained dry, with no spiritual power left.

This group of people now clearly understood they were being targeted, and in an instant, they launched a counterattack against those manipulating bizarre mechanisms.

The three-sided melee immediately turned into a mess, with Ye Hei’s side fully taking on both sides simultaneously.

The prodigies of Central Continent have their pride, believing they aren’t weaker than others if brought to the same level.

The Yama Hall side displayed various strange and mysterious abilities, such as ice, hurricanes, frozen worlds, and even Netherworld Ghosts and Demons.

The Celestial Dao Sect side, on the other hand, continuously cast down stars.

For a moment, it was like an apocalyptic scene.

At this moment, Chasing Soul also joined in, relying on various ghost series divine techniques to shuttle back and forth among the cultivators, elusive and sinister in his attacks.

Ye Hei raised his head and roared, and the hundred-member formation instantly assembled, "Fire Divine Power!"

The wild energy sealed in the Void Spirit Jade erupted immediately, rushing towards the methods of both sides.

This battle, in truth, was the debut for the Central Continent prodigies, and a battle where they made their mark.

They had been holding back for too long and were now fighting as if their lives depended on it.

Even Bai Xiangdong was moving through the field in a White Crane Spreads Wings posture, muttering to himself, "Today I will be evenly matched with hundreds of cultivators."

To those unaware, he seemed insane.

Of course, even those familiar with him thought he was crazy.

Especially Huangfu Liang, who rolled his eyes repeatedly as he passed by, "I know you want to reverse curse, but what you are doing is obviously making a wish."

He knew that besides Bai Xiangdong’s White Crane Spreads Wings ability, he also had the ability of random daily insights, of course, with the side effect of needing to curse himself once a day.

Is this a curse? You’re really daring to think.

"Mind your own business, Quan Xiaotong said, there’s no useless ability, dare to dream!"

After saying so with irritation, Bai Xiangdong continued to fight his way inside.

Huangfu Liang followed close behind, and with their cooperation, they managed to hold off over a dozen Walking Realm cultivators.

Of course, the most spectacular was still the stream formed by a certain Divine Spring, which seemed to have come to life, hiding among the stars of the Celestial Dao Sect, occasionally jumping out to devour people.

Many Celestial Dao Sect cultivators met with misfortune, one by one, falling weak after being engulfed and then regurgitated.

The performance of the three immediately drew sidelong glances, making the prodigies from Central Continent envious.

Having taken Pills to break through to the Divine Platform Realm, these three experienced no such evident shortcomings compared to the rest, and instead, due to their special abilities, were not only minimally affected but also seemed even stronger.

Of course, amidst the brilliance, there was an odd voice.

Su Wanjun had just entered the battle array when a loud, almost comical voice filled the air.

Ou Mingdong, driving his Dharma Aspect, rushed over, his face alarmed as he shouted, "Wanjun, quickly call my Divine Spring back, this bastard’s addicted to swallowing people, but my body feels strange."

His Divine Spring was fine in every other aspect, except it wouldn’t listen to him!

The only saving grace was that the Divine Spring had the same demeanor as him and listened to Su Wanjun.

"Hold on, you’re still fine aren’t you!"

Su Wanjun, watching the Divine Spring show off, couldn’t help but smile.

"I can’t wait any longer, I feel like I’m about to explode."

Ou Mingdong felt the spiritual power from the Divine Spring feedback into his physical body, as if it was about to blow.

And explode it did!

The next instant, he could hold back no longer. His spiritual power surged, reaching heights where he no longer even needed the Void Spirit Jade, his cultivation technique pushed to the extreme, charging directly into the crowd.

Clearly just a cultivator in the Initial Realm of the Divine Platform Realm, yet his spiritual power reached the level of the Walking Realm in a short time, allowing him to fight directly with the opponent.

The Divine Spring assisted by the side, making them like a fish in water amidst the battle.

"Seems like the more opponents there are, the more effective this Divine Spring becomes."

Ye Hei marked this down, planning to throw out his junior brother under similar circumstances next time.

Meanwhile, Chasing Soul’s token in his arms received a response.
