King of Creation Chapter 1638: 1623: Nine Realms Divine Eyes Spirit Formation

“The old servant greets Third Master!” Yuann Hongying stayed cross-legged on Heavenly Snake Reef without budging, yet Eunuch Fuq and Grandma Mao, stationed on either side to protect him, advanced together to offer formal salutations.

Yet the contrast in their movements made it obvious that Eunuch Fuq and Grandma Mao possessed unequal ranks.

Though both labeled themselves old servants before the silver-robed youth, Eunuch Fuq simply gave a clasped-hand bow, whereas Grandma Mao dropped to her knees in full ceremony.

The youth in silver ignored Eunuch Fuq and Grandma Mao completely, letting them remain bowed and kneeling, as he cocked his head with a teasing stare fixed on the seated Yuann Hongying.

“I say, Old Fifth, as your elder brother, I came personally to support you. Are you not even going to acknowledge me or stand up to welcome me?” said Yuann Yinying.

Yuann Hongying, eyes shut tight until now, snapped them open with a chilly snort, “Third Brother, are you joking? Would you really come here to support me? Unless the sun rises from the west!”

“Old Fifth, look at what you said. I, your brother, traversed across multiple realms, spending several days just to get here.

I came all this way to support you, what else could I be doing?”

Ding!

With a sharp ring, a storage ring shot from Yinying’s fingers, “Is there anyone willing to take bets? I wager on my fifth brother Yuann Hongying to win. Is anyone brave enough to take the bet?”

Right then, spectators from every direction, particularly the bet hosts, exploded into frenzy. Countless gazes locked onto the storage ring launched from Yinying’s hand, pondering the fortune it held.

“Old Fifth, see how righteous I am? I came to you not asking about victory, odds, or the strength of your opponent, I placed heavy bets on you, yet you say I don’t support you?” Yuann Yinying laughed.

Still, no matter the angle, Yinying’s grin dripped with chill and derision.

These words made Hongying’s lips twitch, his face twisting in utter incredulity.

His third brother supporting him?

Impossible!

It’d be fortunate if he didn’t sabotage him instead.

In that strange instant, the storage ring flung by Yinying floated suspended in the air, gripped by some invisible force, creating a haunting sight next to the hunched Eunuch Fuq and prostrated Grandma Mao.

At that point, a middle-aged shopkeeper-clad man drifted casually into the sky, grinning at Yinying, “Third Master Yuann, this humble one, though lacking, is willing to accept your wager.

Currently, the odds for Third Master Yuann are one to three. If your wager is quite large, the odds might be slightly lowered.”

“You want to accept it?”

Yinying kept his head down, “But if my third brother wins, can you afford to pay?”

“Definitely, this humble one has deposited a million High Grade Spirit Stones as a guarantee at the Five Immortals Hall,” the shopkeeper replied.

“A million High Grade Spirit Stones as a guarantee? That’s quite substantial.” Yinying abruptly lifted his gaze, jabbing at his storage ring, “But do you know how much wealth my storage ring holds, Third Master?”

“This…” The shopkeeper looked hesitant, clueless on the amount. Fearing to offend by lowballing, he aimed high in his guess.

“Well, Third Master Yuann, I assure you that if the wager is within ten million High Grade Spirit Stones, we can afford to pay.”

“Ten million? The storage ring of mine contains ten million Mid-grade Attribute Spirit Stones alone, not to mention what’s inside: High Grade Attribute Spirit Stones, Mid-grade Spirit Stones, High Grade Spirit Stones, Supreme Spirit Stones.”

“Get lost!”

Yinying bellowed like thunder, startling the shopkeeper into plummeting from the sky, though he splashed safely into the waters below.

“Fifty million! The storage ring of Third Master contains wealth valued at fifty million High Grade Spirit Stones. Feel free if you have the ability to eat that, if you can afford to pay.”

Hearing this, the ambitious traders backed off at once.

A fifty-million bet wasn’t something to trifle with.

Besides, from these siblings’ actions, did it seem Yuann Hongying was guaranteed victory?

Why else risk such massive stakes?

With that said, Yinying chuckled once more, “Now, Old Fifth, am I righteous enough? I’ve placed the next ten years’ profits of my land entirely on you. Is this not supportive enough?”

Yuann Hongying rolled his eyes once again, “You think this battle is a sure win, and you’re here to scoop up silver to spend?”

“Wrong!”

Yinying snapped his fingers, “Mainly concerned that your clansmen and friends want to witness your extraordinarily spectacular battle but have no time to come over.

So, incidentally, I took time to help them see your splendor!”

“Making some pocket money along the way is secondary!”

Onlookers drew sharp breaths—fifty million High Grade Spirit Stones just for pocket change.

Comparing to such folk is just…

“Then watch closely! Eunuch Fuq, Grandma Mao, return.” It was only at Yuann Hongying’s order that the stooped Eunuch Fuq and kneeling Grandma Mao withdrew.

Yuann Yinying snickered, and with a flicker in his palm, eighteen Jade Talismans glowing with arcane light soared skyward. After orbiting a few times, the eighteen Jade Talismans gathered abruptly, suspended like an Array Plate.

With a casual flick, eighteen hundred Supreme Spirit Stones poured from Yuann Hongying’s hand into the Jade Talisman Array Plate.

Instantly, the Jade Talisman Array Plate burst into radiant light, resembling from afar an enormous eye dangling overhead.

“What are you doing?” Yuann Hongying scowled.

“This is a new little formation toy from the family, called Nine Realms Divine Eyes Spirit Formation. Once activated, it allows nine people in different worlds to see everything within a thousand miles around the formation.

They all want to witness your glorious victory over that Fourth Stage Martial Artist today, so I was asked to bring this formation.”

Yuann Yinying delivered his words laced with sarcasm, even as he tsked in feigned praise, “This toy is useful, but it consumes too many Spirit Stones, eighteen hundred Supreme Spirit Stones for just two hours.

If I don’t make a profit today, it’s a real loss.”

These revelations made Yuann Hongying’s cheek twitch, his jaws grinding tight.

How could he fail to grasp that his family members, including Fifth Brother Yuann Yinying, all yearned for his downfall?

He had originally challenged Ten Arena Champion Di Kuohai at Five Immortals Arena. Yet word in the family twisted it into a challenge against Fourth Stage Martial Artist Di Kuohai.

Even if he triumphed today, the family would wield it for endless taunts.

Nevertheless, he trusted that victory over Ten Arena Champion Di Kuohai would catapult him to instant fame across the world.

Then, all family jeers would fall silent.

Feats on the Primordial Continent, the Main World, stood beyond anyone’s denial.

“Young Master…” Eunuch Fuq noticed Yuann Hongying’s darkened expression and tried to advise, but Yuann Hongying cut in, “I know, I know what to do. Keep watch diligently, I need to continue my meditation.”

After that, Yuann Hongying shut his eyes, prompting Yuann Yinying to erupt in fury.

“No one has accepted my bet for so long? They say the Primordial Continent is unbelievably wealthy, but after all this fuss, is there really no merchant who dares to take my bet?”

“Or is Five Immortals Island just a name?”

“This shouldn’t require me to split my bets into dozens of parts to complete the wager, should it?”

“It seems, Five Immortals Island is truly…”

While Yuann Yinying kept up his brazen taunts, Mountain God Yi Xun’s form materialized abruptly in the void.

“Young Master Yuann, I will accept your bet on behalf of Five Immortals Hall,” Mountain God Yi Xun announced.

Yuann Yinying’s lips twisted into a mocking smirk, “Oh, finally someone dared to accept it? But you wouldn’t have pushed my Fifth Brother’s odds so low to dare accept my wager, would you?

Honestly, how low did you lower my Fifth Brother’s odds? Ten percent return, or five percent return?”

“Thirty percent return!”

“No matter how much Young Master Yuann bets nor how much the other four guests wager, your brother Yuann Hongying’s odds will remain thirty percent return today!” Mountain God Yi Xun stated firmly.

The phrase ‘thirty percent return’ sparked massive uproar, stunning not just Heavenly Destiny Hall’s Deacons and Stewards, but even Ming Mountain Hall’s Grand Deacon, Cui Shi.

Every mind raced with a single notion—Yi Xun, have you lost your mind? Thirty percent return?

Official Five Immortals Hall odds always undercut other venues. Just days prior, Yuann Hongying’s odds sat at fifteen percent return.

Now Yi Xun had doubled them outright.

Moreover, Yi Xun took on at minimum fifty million High Grade Spirit Stones, and this huge stake would lure countless Martial Artists to pile on.

Over three hundred thousand Martial Artists swarmed around Five Immortals Island.

Even if a third betted, tossing in mere thousands of Spirit Stones apiece, totals would hit billions. Should Yuann Hongying fall, payouts could surpass a billion High Grade Spirit Stones.

Such a billions-scale loss would cripple even Five Immortals Hall severely.

This realization nearly drove Ming Mountain Hall’s Grand Deacon Cui Shi to halt Mountain God Yi Xun.

Yet right before speaking, a sly idea struck Cui Shi, sealing his lips.

A massive hit was fine—it wasn’t Ming Mountain Hall’s burden; Heavenly Destiny Hall bore the fault.

Come then, blame would land squarely on Heavenly Destiny Hall, leaving Ming Mountain Hall untouched.

Better yet, Ming Mountain Hall could then dominate and curb Heavenly Destiny Hall.

Snatching tight financial reins from Heavenly Destiny Hall would spell huge profit.

In that moment, Cui Shi desperately wished for Yuann Hongying’s win and Di Kuohai’s defeat!
