Shao Sidao presented a benevolent image, patiently guiding junior disciples and earning their fervent praise as the sect's model talent. In truth, he harbored ruthless hypocrisy, having lured, tormented, and stolen Junior Sister Yun Shu's talent and foundation after her rejection, fueling his monstrous cultivation rise. He had hoped her brother, Five Treasure Taoist, would perish in the Holy Alliance Heavenly Prison, but news of his rescue by a terrifying power now stirs deep unease in Shao Sidao.

Even if it was solely the Five Treasure Taoist by himself, Shao Sida held no fear; he could smash him with ease. However, supporting the Five Treasure Taoist is that horrifying figure!

If that being decided to act, it wouldn't just destroy him—the whole Myriad Phenomena Dao Sect would face total annihilation!

"Senior brother, what's the matter?" A nearby True Disciple saw Shao Sida's face grow a bit pale and immediately inquired with worry.

Shao Sida quickly regained his composure, a mild smile returning to his features as he shook his head faintly: "It's fine, I was just running my cultivation technique and sensed a minor unease, but nothing major."

"Oh, got it. Senior brother, you've probably been pushing your cultivation too hard—please look after your well-being!" the disciple responded promptly.

Shao Sida gave a small nod and said nothing further. He stored his White Jade Folding Fan, then saluted the group: "That concludes today's lesson. Practice on your own. Come to me tomorrow with any doubts."

With those words, he pivoted and made for Siyun Hall, his strides graceful as ever, though inwardly turmoil and killing intent churned wildly.

Back in Siyun Hall, the doors slammed shut with a boom, blocking out every external noise.

The soft smile fled Shao Sida's face in an instant.

In its place emerged a dark scowl, malice etched between his brows, a stark reversal from his prior affable air.

He marched to the jade throne in the hall's depths and took a seat, fingers drumming the armrest with dull thuds that hammered at the soul with each strike.

"Guards, attend me!"

Shao Sida's command rang out frigidly, his tone devoid of any trace of kindness.

Two black-armored sentinels at Golden Core Realm's peak flashed inside from beyond the hall, dropping to one knee and lowering their heads in deference: "We greet the Young Sect Leader!"

"Any updates on the Five Treasure Taoist I ordered you to track?"

Shao Sida fixed a savage glare on the pair, his voice laced with faint yet lethal menace.

The guards shuddered violently, heads bowing deeper as they answered: "To the Young Sect Leader, we've covertly trailed the Five Treasure Taoist's trail for years.

Yet after that figure freed him from the Holy Alliance Heavenly Prison long ago, the Five Treasure Taoist vanished completely from the world, without a single clue.

We've scoured every major and minor city plus all sects' hidden realms across the realm, but discovered nothing."

"Worthless! You're nothing but trash!"

Shao Sida smashed the jade throne's armrest fiercely, a surge of mighty Primordial Spirit Power erupting, sending the guards spewing blood as they hurtled back, crashing into the hall's pillars, writhing helplessly to rise.

"That insignificant Golden Core Realm fatty—you couldn't locate him after all these years, why even keep you around!"

Shao Sida rose, his form wreathed in murderous aura.

"The fatso was always digging into Yun Shu's case. No proof in hand, but he remains a lurking danger!

Rescued by that figure now, heaven knows what secrets he's unearthed over time!

Should he come back to the sect and twist the old tales, even if elders dismiss him, seeds of suspicion toward me will sprout!"

His hard-earned reputation over centuries mattered above all; its shattering would spell doom.

Once Shao Sida's false mask crumbles publicly, his bid to claim the sect would hit countless snags.

Worse, the Five Treasure Taoist has that dread power backing him; any meddling from it would unleash unthinkable havoc! "Young Sect Leader, calm yourself—we own our failure!" The guards scrambled to kneel and plead, bodies quaking. Shao Sida drew a heavy breath, quelling his rage by force, aware that outbursts solved nothing; priority lay in rooting out the Five Treasure Taoist threat for good.

He paced deeper into the hall, back to the guards, staring somberly at the cloud ocean, his mind whirling with vicious plots.

"That fatty, absent all these years, must be probing covertly and avoiding the spotlight."

Shao Sida muttered: "Lacking proof, he couldn't touch me even back at the sect.

With that figure's stature, absent ironclad evidence, striking at a junior like me would invite ridicule."

Still, no risks allowed; he had to erase the fatso utterly before exposure, averting all future peril!"

"But that entity terrifies too much; direct moves would alert it surely,

and failure means catastrophe for me...

Shao Sida's brows knit tight in contemplation.

A flawless scheme was needed—one slaying the Five Treasure Taoist undetected, without implicating himself or rousing the dread force behind.

For probing Yun Shu's secrets, the Five Treasure Taoist couldn't cling forever to that figure; departure would come. Yet, post-Holy Alliance Heavenly Prison survival, utmost wariness defined him; crude snares wouldn't deceive. "What to do... How to quietly snuff this lurking menace..." Shao Sida balled his fists hard, nails piercing flesh to draw blood, pain unfelt.

Flashes assaulted his thoughts: Yun Shu's grim demise, the Five Treasure Taoist's piercing stare during that probe.

Plus the mythic dread aura at his rescue by that figure—unease ballooned relentlessly, portending grave events.

Right as Shao Sida agonized, scheming foul ways to off the Five Treasure Taoist.

Boom!!!

A colossal blast rocked the Spiritual Charm Blessed Land!

No mere thunder, it dwarfed the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder by billions, like the world punched by a titan fist.

The Spiritual Charm Blessed Land's peaks quaked fiercely, main peak's halls, towers, Martial Arts Arena groaning deafeningly.

Earth split into vast chasms, spiritual energy rioted madly,

roaring tsunami-like in every direction!

Cultivating disciples jolted from trance by the quake, hearts gripped in panic, they staggered from quarters, gaping skyward in horror and confusion.

"What's going on?! Why the sudden quake?!"

"Such awful might! No Demon Beast raid or realm cave-in—this is... supreme power descending on our Myriad Phenomena Dao Sect?!"

"No way! We're a top cultivation sect,

who dares unleash force over our domain?!"

"Check the skies! What's that?!"

A disciple jabbed skyward, shrieking in dread.
