“Despicable man, stop!” The Heavenly Palace’s men were shocked as they shouted.

They did not have the time to investigate who Zhou Yuanhai was. The only thing on their mind was to stop him!

Boom boom boom!

Nanan burned her powers.

Dragin burned her powers.

Qin Manyun burned her powers.

Blackie burned his powers!

…

Everyone abandoned everything else at the moment, ignoring their injuries. They did not even care if they dealt with permanent damage to their bodies. The only thing on their mind was to get back to Fallen Immortal Mountain immediately.

Their eyes were reddened as they clenched their teeth. They let out a roar as they burst into the air!

Looking at how crazily they acted, the traitors did not even dare to try and stop them. However, they did not want to stop them either. They locked into Zhou Yuanhai as well, rushing over.

“He used us as bait to take advantage of the situation. We can’t let this guy get what he wants!”

“What a jerk! We’re the only ones allowed to take advantage of situations. We’ve been tricked this time. He’s unforgivable!”

“Wisdom is ours!”

…

That moment, the skies thundered as they shook.

Nanan and the others’ anger and panic resonated in the skies, affecting all life in the world, and causing them to get anxious as well.

The surrounding cultivators looked at their retreating figures and were too scared to even move. They had a feeling that anyone who stood in the way would immediately be sent to an early grave!

“What is it? What exactly happened to have them so frantic?”

“Those are all the supreme beings in the Origins Realm. Why did they all suddenly head in the same direction?”

“It’s a huge matter. Something incredibly important must have happened. It’s even more important than Madman Chu!”

“They’re heading toward the Ancient Forbidden Area. What exactly happened in that mysterious place?”

“I vaguely feel like the whole world is about to change!”

…

Everyone was stunned. Even Wisdom Dictators felt like they were incredibly insignificant at that moment. They felt like they were about to face the unknown, and their lives were no longer in their hands.

Daji and Fire Phoenix naturally felt what happened as well. The phoenix and white fox both started to unleash incredible powers. Around their Wisdom Dharmas, radiant flames started to show!

What followed what a frantic surge in power. Even the demon figure started to retreat!

Looking at those radiant flames, the cultivators around them widened their eyes as their shock increased.

“T-they’re burning their life force! They’re burning their life force?!”

“What happened to make them so frantic?”

“Could it be related to the Ancient Forbidden Area as well? They’re beings standing on top of the world, but they started to burn their life force”!

…

Boom boom boom.

The demon constantly retreated. In the end, it fell to the ground with a boom.

Daji and Fire Phoenix burned their life forces, causing their powers to surge to their peak. They put their lives on the line and left permanent marks on their lives. The moment they finished burning their life forces, they would turn to ash.

To any strong cultivators, burning their life force was something most could not accept, but they did not hesitate to do it at all.

They only had one thought in mind at that moment, which was to suppress Madman Chu before hurrying back to Li Nianfan’s side. If something happened there, then there would be no point staying alive anyway.

“Wisdom has deteriorated this lifetime. It’s no longer worthy of being my opponent. Is it about to be swallowed by some insignificant pawn?” Madman Chu’s cold laugh could be heard from within the Wisdom Dharma. He mocked them emotionlessly and sounded incredibly arrogant.

He did not care about what happened to Wisdom at all, nor did he care if that person swallowed Wisdom up. That was because he believed that he was absolutely the strongest!

“Endless Ice Seal!”

“Undying Divine Flame!”

The white fox and the phoenix both roared as they continued to use their life force to dish out the strongest powers.

Between them, fire and ice mixed, forming into a picture of yin and yang and exploding forth with the power they never showed before.

That power finally caused cracks in the demon.

The cracks got before and before, enveloping the whole body, seemingly about to shatter it!

Yet, the massive power swallowed up Daji and Fire Phoenix’s life force. Their faces were pale, and their life force was already incredibly dim.

“Yin and yang encompass everything. It’s the very foundation of Wisdom. You were just a hair away from becoming complete Wisdom. I’m willing to call you the strongest under Wisdom!”

Madman Chu let out a burst of maniacal laughter as the pain in his body made him ecstatic. His body turned to nothing as he condensed the Wisdom Dharma with his divine powers. He had long since transcended physical form. On top of that, he died for countless days. He forgot about physical pain, so feeling it again gave him a strange sense of happiness.

“Roar!”

The demon let out a vicious roar as it slowly stood up, using both its hands to block the fire and ice, standing against the white fox and phoenix.

“Li Nianfan…” Daji and Fire Phoenix muttered. Their eyes were teary as they put everything they had into their attacks.

…

“Quick, we have to hurry up!” Cultivator Junjun and the others already had their eyes reddened as they burned up their life force as well, using that to speed themselves up.

Yet, they still needed time.

Under their very gazes, Zhou Yuanhai sighed before he slowly knocked on the door to the residence.

He said, “I’m Zhou Yuanhai, seeking an audience with Lord Saint. I came to make a report on the situation in the outside world.”

Li Nianfan held his chess piece, not putting it down. He looked at the chess board with a distracted expression.

Looking at the board, he only made a single move.

The whole residence was as quiet as it was in the beginning. Only Xiao Bai and himself were there. The others already went. Even the things within were moved out.

He was constantly worried about everyone’s safety and decided to have a game of chess to calm himself down. Yet, he could not do it at all. All that was on his mind was whether the calamity was suppressed and whether they were safe.

Suddenly, the voice from outside the door caused him to recollect his thoughts. He was slightly shaken.

A report?

“Oh!” Xiao Bai opened the door and stared right at Zhou Yuanhai. Its eyes let out a red glow.

Zhou Yuanhai’s eyebrows were raised when he saw Xiao Bai opening the door.

What was that?

A machine?

Wisdom still had another protector?

He started to feel somewhat uneasy, especially from the pressure Xiao Bai exuded. Its skills should not be below him.

At that moment, Li Nianfan’s anxious voice was heard, “Xiao Bai, what are you standing at the door for? Let him in.”
