Liang Yuan confronted Zhang Wenjing and the Dove Faction, accusing them of prioritizing their own territories over the greater good and colluding with Pei Yuanhu. He then traveled with Zhang Wenjing to the Earth Mother Sect's base on Cangfu Mountain and subsequently to their relocated headquarters, the Yellow Earth Divine Origin. Upon arrival, they discovered the underground city in chaos as residents were being looted and attacked, discovering that key factions of the Earth Mother Sect had abandoned the area, taking essential supplies with them. Liang Yuan inquired about the location of crucial artifacts, learning that the leaders of the departed factions held them.

A floating island cannot claim ownership without mastery over the refinement of the Brain Core and Heart Core. When the ice thaws next year and the floods return, those controlling the Heart Core and Brain Core will steer the floating island away. Liang Yuan, with a slight shake of his head, let out a sneer. "The high-level leaders of the Earth Mother Sect are quite decisive, abandoning their home so readily." Fortunately, the current outside world is locked in a harsh winter, with frigid temperatures freezing the floods. This Yellow Earth Divine Origin cannot be moved from Guangfu. Therefore, for the immediate future, this territory will remain under Liang Yuan's control.

Within the Earth Mother Sect's Yellow Earth Divine Origin floating island, one can expect a substantial quantity of Earth Attribute Superpower Stones and various Earth Attribute Genetic Mutation Beasts. Furthermore, deep within the Heart Core and Brain Core, a significant deposit of Blood Crystal residue is surely present. This amounts to providing a vast supply of Earth Attribute Genetic Species for Yangshan. Moreover, the population here can also be transitioned to become the populace of Yangshan. In essence, despite the escape of the Earth Mother Sect's high-level leaders and the resources they managed to take, they obviously could not abscond with everything. These population resources, in particular, will become invaluable assets for Yangshan's future. They will provide a steady stream of manpower for Yangshan's team expansion.

Liang Yuan swiftly moved to assert control over the entire underground city. Before long, he had located the mid-level leaders of the Earth Mother Sect who were stirring up trouble. One was the leader of the Earth Walkers, and the other was the leader of the Green Speakers. These two factions stood as the two most significant powers within the entire Yellow Earth Divine Origin. Now, with Shi Lianhai leading the exodus of the Earth Mother Sect's higher-ups, these two forces found themselves leaderless and immediately descended into chaos, both sides vying for dominion over the underground city. The Earth Walkers primarily consisted of Earth Attribute Superpower Users, while the Green Speakers were predominantly Wood Attribute Superpower Users. On this Yellow Earth Divine Origin floating island, Earth Attribute Superpower Users naturally held the advantage, repeatedly crushing the Wood Attribute Superpower Users. The entire Green Speaker organization was routed and in full retreat.

Liang Yuan intervened, employing his Puppet Threads to seize control of the leaders from both factions, thereby rapidly bringing the conflict to an end. He brought the two controlled leaders with him, swiftly stabilizing the situation. The entire process, which sounded complex, was remarkably simple to execute. The seemingly formidable Green Speaker and Earth Walker leaders were rendered speechless and utterly dominated by Liang Yuan. He then commanded the two to step forward and enforce order. Soon, the internecine fighting subsided.

Witnessing this display, Zhang Wenjing was inwardly astonished. "Another type of superpower!" she mused. "And it's direct control over the opponent's body; it must be a Spirit Superpower!" she thought. "Just how many abilities does this Liang Yuan actually possess?" She found it difficult to comprehend, truly amazed. While it wasn't unheard of for an individual to wield multiple superpowers, there was typically a dominant one among them. As of yet, Zhang Wenjing couldn't even ascertain what Liang Yuan's primary superpower might be!

Subsequently, Liang Yuan ceased having Zhang Wenjing accompany him. He entered the depths of the underground city alone, diligently searching for any remaining resources. The food supplies had been entirely removed. The army had not been relocated, but the food had been. Shi Lianhai and Guan Maocai clearly understood this strategy, taking all the food from the island and leaving Liang Yuan with a substantial population. Consequently, the inhabitants of the island would inevitably face starvation, putting Liang Yuan in a precarious situation. Unfortunately for them, they failed to realize that material resources are precisely what Liang Yuan lacks the least! Upon reaching the underground treasury, Liang Yuan was elated to discover a considerable wealth of Superpower Stones, Superpower Weapons, and research equipment still present. Clearly, in their haste to transport all the food, the denizens of the Earth Mother Sect had been unable to move all of these Superpower Stones and weapons. Their spatial equipment was insufficient to contain everything. Without a second thought, Liang Yuan gestured, causing everything within the treasury before him to be instantly collected. He then utilized his Earth Escape technique, swiftly penetrating the underground of the Yellow Earth Divine Origin to survey the island's interior. Before long, he had pinpointed the location of the heart chamber.Inside the heart chamber, a substantial quantity of Earth Attribute Blood Crystals were indeed present. It was presumed that the Earth Mother Sect's members hadn't had the chance to extract them all. Liang Yuan grinned; these Blood Crystals were more than sufficient for him to nurture a significant number of Earth Attribute Genetic Species experts. Old Ma, Zhong Mountain, Xue Guohua, and Zhai Guofeng—these Earth Attribute Superpower Users were now beneficiaries of his decision. "Your task is to remain here and safeguard the Yellow Earth Divine Origin for me," he commanded. "The situation outside Cangfu Mountain is currently stable, so there's no need to relay any changes concerning the Yellow Earth Divine Origin to them." "However, effective immediately, cease all worship of the so-called Earth Mother and refrain from conducting any further brainwashing ceremonies." Liang Yuan issued these directives to Huang Tianxing, the leader of the Earth Walkers, and Hua Lingfeng, the Green Speaker, who stood before him. The two did not dare to defy him and readily assented. Subsequently, Liang Yuan implanted a Parasite Species within their Sea of Consciousness, stating, "A failsafe has been established within your persons." "Should either of you attempt to abscond or cause any other disturbances, do not expect any leniency from me." Cold sweat beaded on Huang Tianxing's forehead as he hastily responded, "We would never dare, sir. We would never dare." Hua Lingfeng also quickly affirmed, "Please rest assured, we will strictly adhere to your instructions." "Haha, it would be wise not to disappoint me. I am now proceeding to address the Spiritual Ability Sect. Upon my return, I will personally oversee the organization of the Yellow Earth Divine Origin and Cangfu Mountain." With his pronouncement, his figure vanished with great speed. Zhang Wenjing chose not to accompany him this time, instead letting out a sigh. "Mr. Liang, you have now single-handedly dismantled the Three Great Sects." "Are your next targets within the military?" she inquired. Liang Yuan regarded Zhang Wenjing with a scrutinizing gaze. "I do not initiate conflict, but I will retaliate if provoked. While I was content residing in Yangshan, the Three Great Sects and the Hawk Faction Military persistently harassed me. What course of action do you believe I should take?" "With Yuan Shijie now deceased, you have brought the Water God Sect and the Earth Mother Sect under your control, leaving only the Spiritual Ability Sect, which will inevitably fall to you sooner or later." "Might we propose a pact to ensure the Dove Faction Military's survival?" Liang Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Zhang Wenjing. "Spare them? And how would that be achieved?" Zhang Wenjing reasoned, "The soldiers at the lower ranks are merely following orders, unaware of the larger picture." "The primary instigator was Yuan Shijie. Since you have already executed him, could this not be considered the end of the matter?" Liang Yuan shook his head. "Certainly not. The military's technological advancements, their resources, and the Yangshan technology they pilfered from me—all of it must be reclaimed." "Miss Zhang, my hope is that the Dove Faction Military will abstain from interfering in this endeavor. Otherwise..." He left the sentence unfinished, but the implicit threat was undeniable. Zhang Wenjing's expression hardened, and she retorted sharply, "Mr. Liang, are you not perhaps overestimating yourself?" "Our Dove Faction Military is distinct from the Hawk Faction Military, and my father is certainly not the simpleton Yuan Shijie was!" Liang Yuan responded dismissively, "I hold no concern for your father's character, nor whether you possess intelligence." "My sole focus is on reclaiming that which rightfully belongs to me." "Even if the Celestial King himself were to appear today, I would still retrieve the resources from the Hawk Faction Military!" "It is rightfully mine." Having declared this, Liang Yuan ceased paying attention to Zhang Wenjing and swiftly departed from the Yellow Earth Divine Origin. Observing his departure, Zhang Wenjing's brow furrowed deeply, her countenance darkening. Suddenly recalling something crucial, she quickly retrieved a communication device. This was no ordinary radio or satellite phone; it was a device designed for superpower transmission. It facilitated the relay of information through superpower magnetic fields, albeit at a significant energy cost. This particular equipment was designated for the high command of the Dove Faction Military, reserved for critical communications. Its maximum operational range extended up to 100 kilometers! Given that the Earth Mother Sect's Yellow Earth Divine Origin was merely tens of kilometers from Cangqiong Mountain, this range was sufficient for transmitting messages. Naturally, the farther the transmission distance, the more degraded the signal quality, leading to potential message distortion. However, over a year had passed since the great flood, and superpower energy now permeated the world. Humanity's comprehension of superpowers remained rudimentary. Consequently, the communication devices developed thus far were not widely deployable; achieving transmission distances even within 100 kilometers was considered a remarkable feat.

Announcements blared, "Liang Yuan from Yangshan is proceeding towards Eagle Base. Alert, alert, Liang Yuan from Yangshan is en route to Eagle Base. Notify personnel at Eagle Base to commence immediate evacuation. Notify personnel at Eagle Base to commence immediate evacuation!"

After securing the communication device, Zhang Wenjing ascended into the sky, commencing a rapid pursuit of Liang Yuan.

However, this time, Liang Yuan harbored no intention of bringing her along.

Consequently, he initiated travel at maximum velocity, vanishing into the heavens above the Yellow Earth Divine Origin with almost instantaneous speed.

Upon ascending, Zhang Wenjing found herself unable to perceive his figure any longer.

"His destination is Eagle Base, which implies Cangqiong Mountain."

With this realization, Zhang Wenjing offered no hesitation and swiftly propelled herself towards Cangqiong Mountain's direction.

Liang Yuan, meanwhile, traversed the air at breakneck speed, the sheer velocity generating intense friction against the defensive shield enveloping him, causing it to ignite in fiery trails.

From a distance, he appeared as a blazing fireball, streaking across the snow-laden sky.

A stark white vapor trail sliced through the heavens.

In under ten minutes, Liang Yuan materialized above Cangqiong Mountain.

The instant he appeared, a colossal beam of light suddenly erupted from Cangqiong Mountain.

Buzz!

The illumination shot forth, resembling a high-powered laser cannon.

Witnessing this, Liang Yuan's form contorted and vanished instantaneously.

Whoosh!

The light beam carved through the void, agitating the very fabric of the sky with powerful air currents.

Superheated particles scraped against the atmosphere, generating terrifying levels of thermal energy.

Liang Yuan's presence reappeared, having successfully evaded the destructive blast.

He cast his gaze down towards Cangqiong Mountain, a flicker of surprise crossing his features.

"The Hawk Faction Military still possesses such an energy cannon?"

Just then, a contingent of individuals emerged from the treeline below.

Leading this group was none other than Aftershock.

Accompanying him were several military operatives, equipped with advanced superpower weaponry and artillery.

"Mr. Liang, it has been some time."

Liang Yuan regarded Aftershock, his expression unyielding, "Did you fire that cannon?"

Aftershock gave a nod, stating, "My apologies, this was the only way I could intercept you."

"Mr. Liang, I am aware of your intention to take action against the Hawk Faction Military Base, but I am compelled to prevent it."

"Numerous soldiers stationed there are blameless, having been merely misled by Yuan Shijie."

"You understand that our soldiers lack independent thought; they merely follow directives."

"A soldier's duty is to adhere to orders."

"Therefore, I implore you to exercise leniency and refrain from harming them."

Aftershock's words, delivered with palpable sincerity, carried an exceptionally earnest tone.

Liang Yuan responded with chilling indifference, "Is that so? Are you suggesting that with Yuan Shijie's demise, all grievances should be set aside? That I should cease pursuing this matter further?"

Aftershock exhaled a sigh, "We are prepared to offer you suitable compensation."

Liang Yuan immediately let out a laugh, "Easy words, but is that compensation not something rightfully mine?"

Aftershock shook his head, pleading, "Mr. Liang, please do not make this difficult for me."

Liang Yuan chuckled, his gaze sweeping over the assembled group, "Very well, let us see if you possess the capability to halt my advance."

Swish!

Liang Yuan's form vanished without a trace.
