Previously on Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal...
The Fire Element Avatar appeared, astonishing everyone. Despite being dismissed as an Earth Tier cultivator, its defiance led the Ancestor of Hundred Miles to attack. To everyone's shock, the Avatar easily repelled the attack and revealed twenty thousand Celestial Army soldiers. Feng Xi and Little Douzi quickly defeated the leaders of the ten major forces and their armies.
The instant the two factions clashed, a five-hundred-thousand-strong army was annihilated!
Piercing screams reverberated endlessly!
A new bloodbath commenced once more...
Meanwhile, after issuing his command, the Fire Element Avatar utilized instant teleportation, swiftly pursuing the Hundred Miles Ancestor.
Upon witnessing the Fire Element Avatar’s assault, the Hundred Miles Ancestor’s countenance was etched with sheer terror.
During their prior confrontation, he had distinctly perceived the Fire Element Avatar’s combat prowess to be at the early True God Realm!
Yet, he could not comprehend!
How could an individual within the Earth Tier Realm possess the combat strength of a True God Realm expert?
He dared not even contemplate the power of the Void God Realm!
But now, the Fire Element Avatar was already upon him!
"Whoosh~!"
A flash of brilliant white light!
The Fire Element Avatar brandished a low-grade divine artifact – the God-slaying Sword!
In the subsequent moment, the divine sword arced towards the Hundred Miles Ancestor!
A blade of light, as frigid as frost!
Illuminating the entire expanse of the world!
"Boom~!"
And at this precise juncture, an unforeseen turn of events transpired!
The ground beneath them erupted violently!
Innumerable colossal rocks were flung into the air!
A gargantuan creature, stretching a thousand feet in length and exuding a monstrous corpse aura, resembling a centipede adorned with scales like a black dragon, burst forth from the earth, launching a surprise assault upon the Fire Element Avatar.
The creature’s emitted aura had ascended to the mid-stage Void God Realm!
This was the Hundred Miles Ancestor’s formidable war pet – the Corpse Armor Centipede!
At this critical moment, the Hundred Miles Ancestor unleashed it to ambush the Fire Element Avatar.
"Hmm?"
The Fire Element Avatar exhibited a flicker of surprise and retaliated with a sword strike!
"Swish~!"
The divine sword descended once more!
The boundless sword energy cleaved through the heavens and earth!
"Crack~!"
A sharp, resounding snap!
The torrent of sword qi directly bisected the Corpse Armor Centipede from its head to its tail!
Despite the Dragon Centipede’s mid-stage Void God cultivation, its lack of intelligence rendered it comparatively easier to vanquish!
In the ensuing moment, a radiant luminescence ascended from the Corpse Armor Centipede’s remains, vanishing into the void.
This was the reward light, channeling back to Wang Teng!
Simultaneously, a familiar, mechanical voice resonated within the Fire Element Avatar’s consciousness...
[You have successfully slain the Corpse Armor Centipede (mid-stage Void God Realm)! Your main body gains +75 billion Experience Points, +700 billion Guardian Value, +3,000 Reputation Value.]
[You have advanced to Level 52 Guardian Venerable (Basic)!]
[Your Physique Attribute has increased by 2,000 points!]
[Your Power Attribute has increased by 2,000 points!]
[Your Agility Attribute has increased by 2,000 points!]
[Your Spirit Attribute has increased by 2,000 points!]
[Your Comprehension Attribute has increased by 2,000 points!]
The Fire Element Avatar was filled with elation!
He had not anticipated that vanquishing the Dragon Centipede would also yield a tenfold bonus on Guardian Value.
Evidently, during this period, any spoils claimed from the enemy’s ranks would be subject to a tenfold reward amplification!
And at this very instant, the Hundred Miles Ancestor had just retrieved a long blade, itself a low-grade divine artifact.
Now, he gazed upon the Fire Element Avatar with utter consternation.
He had never imagined the Fire Element Avatar could dispatch his war pet with a single sword stroke, shattering his perceptions yet again.
"Swish~!"
Without affording him any further time for contemplation, the Fire Element Avatar launched another assault.
In a flash, the two combatants were enmeshed in another fierce engagement.
Mere moments later, the Hundred Miles Ancestor’s cries of agony echoed across the battlefield!
The Hundred Miles Ancestor was repelled by the Fire Element Avatar in a single, decisive blow!
The very next second, as he attempted to reconstitute himself from a mist of blood, he was inundated by a furious onslaught from the Fire Element Avatar!
Within the crimson vapor, the soul body of the Hundred Miles Ancestor experienced a relentless decline in its aura...
...
Meanwhile, within the territory of the Fourth Division's Fengyue Cave Heaven.
Fengyue Cave Heaven stood as the preeminent power in the Fourth Division.
At this juncture, the Top Ten Mysterious Forces of the Fourth Division had all convened within Fengyue Cave Heaven’s domain.
Cumulatively, these gathered disciples numbered over fifty thousand.
Presently, hovering above Fengyue Cave Heaven.
An elder, clad in a cyan robe, was intently observing a unique Communication Jade Talisman held within his grasp.
This elder was none other than the progenitor of Fengyue Cave Heaven, a cultivator at the mid-stage Void God realm, a Great Power.
Standing behind him were the current leader of Fengyue Cave Heaven – Feng Qingyang, alongside the leaders of the other nine prominent forces.
"Ancestor, what is the current situation?"
Feng Qingyang inquired, his voice laced with apprehension.
A deep inhale was drawn by the Wind Moon Ancestor. "It is Taishi! He has commanded me to lead the troops and blockade the Third Division, thereby preventing the Hundred Miles Ancestor from reaching the Sixth Division."
The pronouncement caused Feng Qingyang and the other leaders to knit their brows.
Immediately, Feng Qingyang voiced his concern, "Esteemed Ancestor, this order from Taishi presents a significant challenge for us!"
A sigh escaped the Wind Moon Ancestor. "The overall might of our Fourth Division is not on par with the Third Division, and I myself am no match for the Hundred Miles Ancestor. How are we expected to hold them back?!"
Upon hearing this, universal agreement resonated among the group.
"You speak the truth! We are merely a supplementary force; there is no necessity for us to hazard our lives for Taishi!"
"Indeed! The crucial issue is that this command is far too arduous, and we are simply incapable of stopping them!"
"Then, what course of action should we pursue?"
At this juncture, the leaders were deep in discussion, their minds burdened by the predicament.
The Wind Moon Ancestor also expressed his lament, "This is truly vexing, but..."
Before his statement could be completed, a spirited voice cut through the air. "What vexation? I am here to resolve it for you, once and for all!"
As the words concluded, a young man of remarkable handsomeness materialized from the void, appearing directly before them.
The newcomer was none other than the Earth Element Avatar!
"Who dares to intrude?!" The Wind Moon Ancestor demanded, his gaze fixed on the Earth Element Avatar, a chilling expression seizing his features.
An innate sense of apprehension stirred within him, directed towards the unexpected arrival of the Earth Element Avatar.
"Esteemed Ancestor! He originates from the Celestial Court!"
"Hmm? So that is the case!"
Swiftly, Feng Qingyang and the others ascertained the identity of the Earth Element Avatar, a spectrum of surprise flickering across their faces.
A wave of relief washed over the Wind Moon Ancestor, a subtle smile gracing his lips.
"Haha, so it is merely a cultivator from the Earth Tier! To venture alone into our Fourth Division, you must possess audacious grit! Have you come seeking your demise?"
The Wind Moon Ancestor's tone dripped with contempt, laced with a discernible thread of mockery.
It was evident that he held the Earth Element Avatar in utter disregard.
