The Netherworld Ghost Kings claimed the Heaven-Splitting Tower, enraging other clans who shifted their focus to seizing the Heaven Shaking Lock. Chaos broke out as the Ruthless Beast Race, Insect Race, and Silver City attempted absorption, only for the Spirit God Race to unleash the formidable Nine-Light Heavenly Pearl Array, shielded by Soul Body Asuras. Yang Chen, receiving a light sphere from Wan Huaruo, used space-time traversal to pierce directly into the array's core amid the escalating crisis.

Yang Chen burst into action abruptly.

Through his spacetime insertion, the arrival happened in the blink of an eye, leaving even the three quick-witted Heavenly Fate Realm Spirits of the Spirit God Clan unable to foresee this turn of events.

By the time they snapped to attention, it felt far too late.

Yang Chen thrust his spear first, targeting straight at the Heavenly Fate Realm Spirit God Clan member overseeing the Nine Light Heavenly Pearl Formation. For this strike, he wielded his ultimate weapon, the God-killing gun.

This assault was no mere feint. Initially, the Heavenly Fate Realm Spirit God Clan member dismissed it, convinced a Heaven-separated Realm powerhouse posed no threat.

Yet in a flash, a dire peril surged toward him.

This peril forced an instinctive evasion.

The moment he evaded, the Nine Light Heavenly Pearl Formation faltered, failing to draw in the Heaven-shaking Lock. Instead, Yang Chen’s light sphere flared up, beaming directly into the Heaven-shaking Lock.

Witnessing this, the spectators stood stunned, as the three Great Spirit God Clans bellowed: "No good! Stop him quickly!"

Not one of the three Great Spirit Races could stay composed.

They knew full well the Nine Light Heavenly Pearl Formation had nearly claimed the Heaven-shaking Lock, now tamed and ripe for seizure. But Yang Chen’s meddling had snatched that hard-won advantage right from under them.

Now, Yang Chen’s light sphere pulled in the Heaven-shaking Lock, on the verge of fully claiming it in seconds.

How could they hold back their fury?

Powerhouses from other races reeled in shock, clueless about the chaos. They only saw a figure emerge suddenly, throwing the Three Great Spirit Races into frenzy.

Human Race’s Heavenly Fate Realm experts found it hardest to believe.

They’d figured their kind was done for, missing out on all Three Great Origin Treasures. How would they justify such a defeat back home?

Unexpectedly, though they lacked the power to claim the prizes, a surprise contender emerged to halt the Spirit God Clan.

A band of Human Race powerhouses burst into laughter.

"Is this Yang Chen?"

"Yes, it’s Yang Chen."

"Hahaha, that’s great. Although I don’t know why Yang Chen is here, it’s a good thing for us that he can obtain the Heaven-shaking Lock. Let’s quickly help him and not let other race’s experts take advantage."

Right now, other races struggled even to exploit openings, blocked by the three Great Soul Asuras.

Meanwhile, the Three Great Spirit Races fumed with urgency. They faced blocking foes ahead while watching Yang Chen at their backs.

All this unfolded in the span of an eyeblink.

Yang Chen’s light sphere bathed the Heaven-shaking Lock in dazzling radiance. Before Spirit God Race experts could react, it erupted. The Heaven-shaking Lock shot up from the ravine, drawn by the light sphere’s pull, vanishing straight into Yang Chen’s space.

At this sight, a smug grin tugged at Yang Chen’s lips.

"Let’s go!"

With the Heaven-shaking Lock secured, Yang Chen wasted no time lingering and bolted away without pause.

Side by side with Wanhua Ruoru, they vanished into the void, leaving no trail.

This spectacle nearly drove the Three Great Spirit Race experts to rage-induced madness, their eyes blazing red like savage beasts, seething at the insult.

The Heaven-shaking Lock had been theirs for the taking, stolen at the final second. How could they swallow that?

Instantly, the Three Great Spirit Races’ Heavenly Fate Realm experts roared in outrage: "Chase him, shatter this kid into pieces!"

As the three Spirit God Race Heavenly Fate Realm experts lunged after Yang Chen, the Human Race’s Heavenly Fate Realm powerhouses refused to stand by.

To them, any human claiming this Origin treasure was victory enough. Yang Chen grabbing it and fleeing was smart—no need for formalities.

Their role was to stall, granting him precious escape time. Once safe, the treasure belonged to humanity.

Yet one figure saw it differently.

That was Silver City.

Silver City stood before the Three Great Spirit Races, brimming with reluctance. He shared a deadly grudge with Yang Chen.

Now Yang Chen clutched one of the Three Great Origin Treasures...

He must wrest it back somehow. If the Spirit God Race took it, it was lost forever—but from Yang Chen, perhaps not.

...

Meanwhile, Yang Chen and Wanhua Ruoru departed, defying the Human Race Heavenly Fate Realm experts’ hopes of a full retreat.

Yang Chen’s sights were set higher: the Heavenly Thunder Tree.

Credit where due—the six human Heavenly Fate Realm experts had stalled long enough for him to reach the Heavenly Thunder Tree’s vicinity and evade soul pursuits.

They likely never imagined Yang Chen, post-Heaven-shaking Lock, charging toward the Heavenly Thunder Tree instead of fleeing.

En route, Yang Chen passed the Heaven-shaking Lock to Wanhua Ruoru.

Now near the Heavenly Thunder Tree, Yang Chen and Wanhua Ruoru first scanned the scene.

Unlike the Heaven-shaking Lock’s contest, the Heavenly Thunder Tree drew no overwhelming edge. Battle had ignited here too.

But with fewer human Heavenly Fate Realm experts—merely three—the humans lagged behind their showing elsewhere.

Evidently, humans prized the Heaven-shaking Lock over the Heavenly Thunder Tree.

In this clash, humans trailed, scraping minor gains amid rival races’ infighting.

Victory remained uncertain for the Heavenly Thunder Tree. Still, the Ruthless Beast Race dominated with ferocity and might.

Seven Ruthless Beast Race members were on site, united in strategy.

Netherworld and Spirit God Races lagged in count and power, yet held firm in earnest combat.

"Yang Chen, you helped me get the Heaven-shaking Lock, and I won’t let you down in return. If you need anything, just ask. I’ll do my best to help you get the Heavenly Thunder Tree," said Wanhua Ruoru.

Yang Chen eyed the Heavenly Thunder Tree, lost in contemplation.

Wanhua Ruoru offered scant aid here. Snatching the Heavenly Thunder Tree wouldn’t mirror the Heaven-shaking Lock’s ease.

He lacked her prior setup. A single Thunder and Lightning Law wouldn’t suffice—otherwise, countless experts would’ve claimed it ages ago.

Securing the Heavenly Thunder Tree demanded time investment.

Who’d afford him that window?

As Yang Chen mulled, his mind turned to his sole usable ace! The issue: would this ace cooperate willingly...
