Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal Chapter 1050 - 443: Divine Realm Mist! Talent Fusion!
Previously on Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal...
After comforting the little one, he made his way directly to the Cultivation Secret Chamber.
Preparations were in order to manage his personal matters.
Boom~! Rumble~! Rumble~!
At that precise moment, a surge coursed through his entire body's blood, his internal organs roared ceaselessly, and his aura skyrocketed with incredible speed.
[Your Fission Body has successfully completed the Refinement of Bingyi Divine Blood! Your Bloodline Talent has been greatly strengthened, you gain +20 million permanent Combat Power.]
The Bingyi Divine Blood had finally been refined!
His Comprehensive Combat Power ascended to 5.22 billion, inching closer to the 7 billion target.
Since this was the case, he should process the remainder of his acquisitions too!
With this thought, a multitude of white lights flickered across Wang Teng's body as over a dozen Fission Bodies detached from within him.
Subsequently, these Fission Bodies assumed a cross-legged posture, each procuring a Divine Artifact and commencing its Refinement.
These Divine Artifacts had been secured during prior confrontations, and the time was ripe for their refinement.
Among them, one Fission Body even extracted the upper, middle, and lower scrolls of the Divine Book, intending to amalgamate the Current World Divine Book.
Wang Teng, too, took out a Divine Talisman.
[Celestial Fusion Divine Talisman: Peak of Lower-Grade Divine Tier]
[Using this talisman, you can fuse two SS-level Talents into an SSS-level Talent!]
Upon observing this, Wang Teng inhaled deeply.
Next, he intended to utilize this talisman to merge his SS-level Primordial Origin and Space-Time Origin into an SSS-level Chaos Path!
This represented one of the ultimate Top-Tier Talents!
Once he successfully condensed it, his power would undoubtedly surge!
With that realization, Wang Teng's heart ignited with fervent anticipation!
In the ensuing moment, he pricked his finger, drew blood, and began the activation sequence for the Divine Talisman...
Concurrently, within the Sixth Division, above a vast expanse of jungle.
An imposing army was visible, marching with formidable momentum directly towards the Celestial Maiden Race!
Their numbers reached a staggering seven hundred thousand!
Leading the vanguard were three powerhouses of the Void God Realm – none other than Jiang Taichu, Taishi, and Ancestor Teng Man.
At this juncture, Taishi gazed intently into the distance, towards the Celestial Maiden Race. "Brother Jiang, once we subjugate the Celestial Maiden Race, how do you propose we handle Ji Ziyue?"
Jiang Taichu offered a chilling smile. "Oh? And what strategies does Brother Taishi have in mind?"
Taishi paused momentarily before responding, "I believe that woman has consistently displayed arrogance and disregard for rules. If we were to simply end her life, wouldn't that be too lenient? How about we capture her alive, and I shall take her away to slowly torment her to death!"
Jiang Taichu's brow furrowed. "Brother Taishi, surely you jest? If we are to capture her alive, I, Jiang, can also take her back and thoroughly enjoy torturing her myself!"
As these words concluded, Taishi's demeanor shifted subtly.
Jiang Taichu's own countenance grew as cold as ice.
The atmosphere between the two instantly became somewhat strained.
Both individuals harbored a covetous desire for Ji Ziyue's beauty.
The conflict had not yet commenced, yet they were already contemplating methods to claim Ji Ziyue for themselves.
Witnessing this, Ancestor Teng Man sensed an immediate discord.
He hastened to mediate the escalating tension.
"You two, this old man perceives beauty as a harbinger of disaster! That Ji Ziyue is indeed unparalleled in beauty within our Star Realm, and consequently, the premier source of calamity. For such an entity, showing mercy is unnecessary—it would be best to eliminate her outright!"
Ancestor Teng Man harbored a genuine desire for Ji Ziyue's demise.
If Ji Ziyue were to persist, how could their Teng Man Race achieve prominence as the foremost powerful race in the Sixth Division?
"Hmph~! What do you comprehend?"
Taishi retorted with evident displeasure.
He then turned his gaze back towards Jiang Taichu.
"Brother Jiang, let us speak candidly. What sum, or what condition, would persuade you to permit Ji Ziyue to be mine?"
Jiang Taichu's eyes gleamed with renewed interest!
This was precisely the proposition he had been anticipating.
Without delay, he let out a cold chuckle. "Brother Taishi, if your desire is for Ji Ziyue, I am amenable to granting her to you."
Taishi appeared taken aback!
He had not anticipated Jiang Taichu would acquiesce so readily.
"However, there is a condition. I, too, desire an individual from your side!" Jiang Taichu added.
"Whom do you wish for?"
"I desire..."
Mid-declaration, Jiang Taichu's lips moved subtly as he conveyed a voice transmission to Taishi.
Upon receiving the message, Taishi's expression shifted to one of surprise.
He then glanced, with a blend of intentionality and casualness, towards the Celestial Divine Country situated behind the main army.
"Curious! Brother Jiang, might I inquire as to the reason for your interest in trading for that particular individual?"
Taishi did not immediately agree.
He was quite perplexed by Jiang Taichu's unusual request.
Jiang Taichu offered a faint smile. "To be entirely truthful, my sole interest in acquiring that person stems from my subordinate's behalf. They originate from the same world and share certain longstanding grievances!"
Jiang Taichu subtly signaled Ji Yi with his eyes.
Ji Yi quickly interjected, "They attacked my homeland. My family's Tomb Master is handling this for me!"
"Oh?"
Taishi appeared partially convinced, partially skeptical.
It was evident he didn't fully accept Jiang Taichu's explanation.
Nevertheless, Matthew was merely a Challenger, nothing extraordinary.
Trading an old man for Ji Ziyue was undoubtedly a favorable deal from any perspective.
At that moment, his lips moved subtly, sending a voice transmission.
"Very well! I agree! However, this arrangement must wait until after we've dealt with the Celestial Maiden Race!"
Jiang Taichu offered a smile. "It's a pact!"
Thus, the two concluded their clandestine agreement.
Jiang Taichu's sole interest in Matthew was the copy of The Bible.
This was one of the primary reasons for his presence in the Sixth Division.
Yet, the two self-important individuals never suspected that the real mastermind was concealed within Matthew himself.
Following their finalized deal, a sense of ease settled between them.
"Speaking of which, Brother Jiang, you mentioned our fathers joining forces—when do you anticipate they'll defeat Wang Teng?"
Taishi suddenly recalled Wang Teng.
Jiang Taichu chuckled, "It should be soon! That brat is certainly no match for my father and Ancestor Guang Yin! Perhaps by the time we arrive at the Celestial Maiden Race, their battle will have concluded."
But as these words were spoken, Ancestor Teng Man's alarmed cry cut through the air.
"You two, check the map! Wang Teng's red marker has suddenly appeared in the Fifth Division!"
"What?!"
Both Taishi and Jiang Taichu swiftly consulted their maps.
A single look confirmed something was amiss!
"What's happening? How did Wang Teng end up in the Fifth Division? Is my father alright?"
Taishi was the first to experience a flicker of unease.
Jiang Taichu's brow also creased deeply.
However, a moment later, a smile graced his lips. "Brother Taishi, Wang Teng must have been defeated! He's fleeing to the Fifth Division!"
Taishi blinked in surprise, then comprehension dawned. "You're right! If something had happened, there would have been a Star Realm announcement."
Jiang Taichu nodded in agreement. "Precisely! This indicates Wang Teng is gravely injured and in a panicked retreat, seeking refuge in the Fifth Division! My father and Ancestor Guang Yin will surely capture him soon!"
Upon hearing this, Taishi's eyes brightened, and he let out a silent, profound sigh of relief.
Subsequently, filled with burgeoning confidence, the two leaders expedited their advance toward the Celestial Maiden Race at the head of their combined forces.
Far at the rear of the procession...
Matthew remained composed, comfortably receiving Teresa's meticulous attention, a faint, enigmatic smile playing on his lips.
Simultaneously, high above the Celestial Maiden Race!
Ji Ziyue stood at the forefront, leading tens of thousands of her kin, their formations arrayed in the sky.
They had already observed the approaching allied forces of Taishi and Jiang Taichu from a distance.
Gazing upon the colossal army of seven hundred thousand, obscuring the heavens as it drew nearer...
An overwhelming tension gripped the entire Celestial Maiden Race!
Some of the more timid disciples trembled uncontrollably.
It was understandable, given the Celestial Maiden Race's limited numbers and Ji Ziyue as their sole top-tier powerhouse.
Facing such overwhelming odds, how could they possibly defend against the enemy coalition?
"I truly never anticipated the Green Camp and Blue Camp would forge an alliance! We're in dire straits this time!"
Beside Ji Ziyue, Granny Ji Yu's voice resonated with palpable distress.
"If it were a straightforward camp-versus-camp confrontation, we might still stand a chance. But now..."
A shadow of apprehension flickered across Ji Ziyue's exquisitely beautiful face.
Granny Ji Yu gazed into the distance. "Could it be that Lord Wang Teng hasn't dispatched a Clone to our aid?"
The mention of Wang Teng's Clone brought a complex expression to Ji Ziyue's features.
She had been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Wang Teng's Clone.
Yet, with the enemy army poised to breach their defenses, Wang Teng's Clone had yet to materialize.
Could it be...
Ji Ziyue seemed to have a dawning realization, offering a wry smile. "Perhaps Lord Wang Teng only possesses a finite number of Clones. I fear our clan must face this threat alone this time."
Granny Ji Yu felt a wave of disappointment wash over her at these words.
Just as she was about to respond, a dramatic shift occurred!
Whoosh~!
A streak of white light flashed past, and a tall, imposing figure materialized from thin air before them.
The newcomer was none other than the Wood Element Avatar!
