Zhao Zishuang escaped a yeti ambush using precious life-saving artifacts, fleeing thousands of miles to a cave despite severe injuries and dwindling resources. Moments later, a black-armored genius from the Cangxu Civilization and his dozen powerhouses sealed the airspace, surrounding her in a desperate fight for survival. Meanwhile, Jiang Ye's team celebrated sweeping five treasure sites for substantial Huanglong Merits before detecting the battle fluctuations and racing toward Zhao Zishuang's clash with the Cangxu foes.

"Brother Wang, stay cautious." Zi Yaozhi’s voice echoed within their minds: "The horned man on his head likely originates from the Cangxu Main Star. He’ll prove difficult to handle."

"Got it."

Boom! Jiang Ye morphed into a radiant spear beam, ripping across the void straight toward the battlefield.

...Meanwhile.

"Clang!" "Clang!"

"Clang!" A fierce clash raged across the battlefield.

Zhao Zishuang gripped her long sword tightly, barely holding back the onslaught from hordes of foes.

Her garments were now soaked in blood, torn and shredded, exposing vast expanses of her pale, voluptuous, delicate skin.

Yet Zhao Zishuang paid it no mind, trapped in a hopeless snare of death.

"I’m destined to perish right here."

"I’ll battle until my last breath." Despair filled Zhao Zishuang’s gaze, swiftly turning into fierce determination as she readied her final desperate strike.

Right then.

"Fall back." A voice she knew well suddenly resounded in her mind.

"Eh?"

"What’s happening?" Zhao Zishuang halted abruptly, then obeyed the command without delay.

She flashed away, pulling back dozens of miles in a blink.

Simultaneously, a brilliant spear radiance sliced through the domain, shattering spatial barriers and slamming into the cluster of Cangxu Civilization experts.

"Boom!"

The spear beam blazed with glory, infused with overwhelming heavenly power, striking instantly.

"What’s that?"

"Danger—block it now!" The Cangxu Civilization experts weren’t idiots; they felt the lethal threat right away and scrambled to defend.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh... Shields of energy flared up, striving to resist the fearsome spear assault.

Yet the instant after.

"Crack! Crack!" The spear radiance plunged down, shattering those barriers effortlessly.

Then, with relentless force, it barreled toward them.

"Splat~"

"Splat!" In a flash, three Cangxu experts got skewered by the spear light, bursting into bloody vapors and dying on the spot.

One thrust, three slain!

This sight stunned the surviving Cangxu Civilization powerhouses in place.

The double-horned youth in black armor up front narrowed his eyes, gazing ahead.

Seven streaks of light descended, solidifying into seven forms, their mighty presences dominating the entire area.

These were precisely the seven-person team commanded by Jiang Ye.

"Powerhouses of the Huanglong Civilization."

"That spear strike was horrifying."

"Hongfang, what’s our move?" All the Cangxu Civilization powerhouses turned to the black-armored youth, obviously deferring to him.

The black-armored youth went by the name Hongfang.

Exactly as Zi Yaozhi guessed, he hailed from Cangxu Main Star—not core bloodline, but a devoted attendant to a Talented One.

Within the Cangxu Civilization, attendants chosen by Talented Ones face grueling tests and savage ordeals.

Thanks to that,

Hongfang’s prowess and resolve were extraordinarily potent, surpassing others his age by leaps.

"A pack of worthless trash."

"Only their leader merits attention." Hongfang scoffed and commanded, "Handle the rest yourselves. I’ll take down that captain."

"One more thing."

"Capture that woman alive—don’t let her escape." A twisted lust gleamed in Hongfang’s gaze.

To earn his place as a Talented One’s follower, he’d suffered endless savage and depraved agonies.

Thus, Hongfang’s nature had warped profoundly.

Spotting such a stunning foreign beauty, he refused to let her go swiftly. True to old patterns, he’d subject her to twisted torments before her agonizing end.

Boom!

Hongfang shot forward like thunder, lunging straight at Jiang Ye.

His velocity was petrifying, closing the gap in mere moments.

"Boom!" Hongfang unleashed his full aura.

Mid-stage Seventh Break!

"Perish." Chill and malice filled Hongfang’s eyes. A saber glow flashed, its saber will surging like an endless sea.

Embedded in this sea-like saber will lay countless Mysteries of Heaven and Earth.

Gold, wood, water, fire.

Four Mysteries!

The saber glow’s path fractured the void, spawning hundreds to thousands of irregular rifts, its saber traces brutal and alarming.

"Mere parlor trick." Jiang Ye’s spear whipped out.

Spear radiance struck like thunderbolts, brimming with staggering power; five Mysteries exploded forth in this attack.

"Boom!"

Saber radiance collided with spear radiance.

Saber will warred against spear will!

Cataclysmic energy detonated, shredding the void instantly, the devastating shockwave hurling both Jiang Ye and Hongfang back.

"Five Basic Mysteries?"

"Clearly a prime prodigy from Huanglong Civilization." Hongfang licked his lips, crimson tinting his eyes.

Though outmatched in Mysteries by Jiang Ye, his cultivation stage held a clear edge.

"Prodigies from secondary civilizations are sturdier than those savage locals." Jiang Ye’s brow furrowed faintly.

Before, he’d effortlessly cut down even mid-stage Eight Breaks among the savage locals.

After all, those locals typically grasped just one Mystery, rarely more than two.

But this time?

Hongfang wielded four Mysteries, each at Eight Breaks caliber.

Though only mid-stage Seventh Break, he dwarfed those mid-stage Eight Breaks savages in threat.

"Each extra Mystery boosts power by magnitudes." Jiang Ye knew this well.

Were he at Seventh Break, this foe would fall in one blow.

Yet currently, Jiang Ye lingered at Sixth Break’s pinnacle.

"Slaying you—what insights might I harvest?" Jiang Ye’s eyes sharpened subtly.
