Steady Cultivation: Starting With the Perk “Work Hard, Rest Hard” Chapter 745: Su Yuan’s Scheme

"Oh, not planning to confess?"

Su Yuan chuckled inwardly.

The drop in realm was no small matter—Zang Tianguan's strength had regressed back to square one, even worse than before!

The disappearance of the trillion corpse puppets had also weakened Zang Tianguan's power to some extent. His strength now might even be inferior to Wu Tianxiang and Qixin, shifting from a slight advantage to a disadvantage.

Su Yuan wasn't in a rush to expose this.

He was calculating the odds of taking on all three at once.

His Fame Great Dao had already allowed him to fight above his rank before. Now that he had reached the hundredth rank, his combat power was overwhelming among his peers. Dealing with the three was no problem, but leaving all three dead in their tracks? That was a bit less certain.

As he pondered, a thought flashed through his mind.

He currently possessed three hundred-rank insights: the True Name Great Dao, the False Name Great Dao, and the Fame Great Dao. The three could be used separately or combined.

So, Su Yuan split off a Fame Great Dao avatar, used the Borrowing Dominator trait to disguise itself, and instantly transformed into Bai Dicang's aura.

At a certain moment.

Wu Tianxiang, who was mid-attack, suddenly sensed a hint of danger.

But it was too late. A figure materialized out of nowhere and struck at Wu Tianxiang with an overwhelmingly powerful assault.

Wu Tianxiang had been on guard against those around him, but the attack came too suddenly. The layer of Prison-Heaven Barrier defense covering his body shattered in an instant under the newcomer's blow!

Wu Tianxiang got a clear look at his attacker, his face twisting with disbelief: "Bai Dicang!"

At that moment, everyone noticed the scene, their expressions also filled with incredulity.

The most shocked of all was Zang Tianguan himself!

He could clearly sense that Bai Dicang's corpse was still perfectly placed inside the coffin, yet the Bai Dicang standing before him was undeniably real! That hundred-rank pressure was no fake either!

What the hell was going on?

Just then, Su Yuan's expression shifted. His two avatars stopped attacking and also lunged at Wu Tianxiang!

Then, Su Yuan sent a voice transmission to Zang Tianguan: "You wanted to kill off the weaklings and split the fortune with me, right? I agree! I'm going to take down Wu Tianxiang too. You can have your main body hold off Qixin!"

Zang Tianguan was instantly vexed. At this moment, he hesitated. Should he reveal the truth? The outcome was predictable—Wu Tianxiang definitely wouldn't believe him, and their relationship could never return to what it was.

Even if Wu Tianxiang did believe him, the result would just be the two of them joining forces to deal with Su Yuan's two avatars, the inexplicable Bai Dicang, and possibly Qixin.

Unless he could convince Qixin and Wu Tianxiang to form a three-on-three stalemate to stabilize the situation.

But how could he negotiate that in such a short time?

Countless thoughts raced through Zang Tianguan's mind. He decided to go along with Su Yuan's plan. If he could eliminate Wu Tianxiang and Qixin, then two hundred-rank combat forces would be missing!

The golden Dao mark required at least three hundred-rank combatants to wear it down. At that point, Seven Stars would have no choice but to cooperate with him to excavate the fortune. Even if Seven Stars took the larger share, he would still get a piece of the benefits!

With his mind made up, Zang Tianguan struck without hesitation, launching an attack at Qixin.

Qixin had already started retreating the moment Wu Tianxiang was attacked. He sensed something was wrong.

Then, just as he feared, things went south. Seven Stars and Zang Tianguan had joined forces!

"Damn it! I knew it!" Qixin cursed inwardly.

When Zang Tianguan lunged at him, he had no choice but to counter. The two immediately plunged into an intense battle.

And deliberately, Zang Tianguan moved the fighting zone away from Su Yuan and Wu Tianxiang's side.

Wu Tianxiang's face twisted with frustration. Being surrounded by three hundred-rank powerhouses and attacked from all sides—this was a treatment he never expected.

Boom! Boom!

"Bai Dicang" suddenly erupted with divine might. A massive palm infused with Life Deprivation slammed down at Wu Tianxiang!

Wu Tianxiang raised his defenses to block.

The moment contact was made, an incredibly terrifying physical impact came first, smashing his defenses apart. Then, a dreadful beam of Life Deprivation struck Wu Tianxiang's arm, instantly siphoning away one percent of his Primal Source Power!

Although Wu Tianxiang recovered rapidly, he had clearly fallen into a complete disadvantage.

If it were just Bai Dicang, it might have been manageable, but two other fighters of the same rank had already joined the assault!

The True Name Great Dao and the False Name Great Dao struck simultaneously.

The True Name River and the False Name River transformed into two interlocking "scissors," pinning Wu Tianxiang in the center.

At that moment, Wu Tianxiang felt his core Primal Source Power being continuously whittled away. This attack was even more bizarre.

"Zang Tianguan, you'll die a miserable death! You betray me like this—one day, you'll be betrayed too!"

Knowing he was in danger, Wu Tianxiang howled at Zang Tianguan like a mad dog!

Zang Tianguan pretended not to hear. Let your friends die, not this humble Daoist.

The ruins were like a dueling cage, making it nearly impossible for Wu Tianxiang to escape.

Wu Tianxiang searched desperately for a way out.

Dao marks were scattered everywhere—he couldn't pass through those areas. The few already-opened palaces were also dead ends with no escape route.

And at the entrance, Zang Tianguan and Qixin were locked in battle. If he charged over there, Zang Tianguan would probably abandon Qixin and team up against him instead. Then it would be four against one, and he'd be as good as dead!

Wu Tianxiang didn't give up. He sent a voice transmission to Qixin: "Qixin, join me! Help me break free! This is your only choice! If you abandon me, once they kill me, they'll have their hands free, and you won't escape either! Only if the two of us survive together can we have any hope of dealing with them! They're not a solid alliance either—once we side with Seven Stars, Zang Tianguan will face his doom!"

Qixin's heart jolted at the words.

Wu Tianxiang was right. If he ran away now, there would be no chance to turn things around. Forget obtaining the fortune—he might not even keep his life!

Only by banding together with Wu Tianxiang could they save their skins, and even gain leverage to secure some fortune!

Without further hesitation, he moved toward Wu Tianxiang.

"I agree. We'll join forces and go all out against Zang Tianguan! As long as Seven Stars isn't stupid, he'll definitely slack off!" Qixin immediately sent a voice transmission.

Wu Tianxiang was overjoyed. This plan was excellent!

He immediately headed toward Qixin to regroup!

Hearing their thoughts, Su Yuan's mind stirred. He loosened some restrictions, allowing Wu Tianxiang to get closer to Qixin's side.

As for Zang Tianguan, he tried to stop Qixin from leaving, but since their strength was nearly equal and one side was trying to escape, he could only chase and fight at the same time.

Finally, Qixin and Wu Tianxiang reunited.

Then, without hesitation, the two struck simultaneously, attacking Zang Tianguan!

Zang Tianguan's face darkened.

At this moment, "Bai Dicang" and Su Yuan's two avatars were still attacking Wu Tianxiang as well.
