Silver City accused Yang Chen of secretly collaborating with the Insect Race and demanded he display both Primordial Treasures. When Yang Chen refused and retaliated with the Law of Life and Death, Silver City allied with He Sheng Daoist and activated an Ancestral Divine Artifact to seal spacetime, blocking Yang Chen's escape. The other Heavenly Fate Realm experts hesitated as Silver City prepared to execute him for alleged betrayal.

Yang Chen understood perfectly well that counting on those four nearby Heavenly Fate Realm powerhouses for aid was out of the question.

For them, securing the Primordial Treasure mattered far more. His survival or demise held little weight in their eyes.

After all, their connection to him was superficial at best, with no deep bonds formed. To these cultivators, a death inside the Forbidden Spirit Palace meant as little as a stray dog's passing. Claiming a Primordial Treasure outweighed any urge to assist him.

Xingtong now found herself ensnared by fellow Heavenly Fate Realm foes, rendering her unable to come to his aid. He alone had to muster his own power.

Yet right now, peril loomed greater than at any prior moment.

Overreliance on the Ten Thousand Law Dao Embryo lay at the heart of it.

Initially during the clash at the Heaven-shaking Thunder-sealing Tree, and later upon exiting Jianhen Palace, he had activated it anew. Such repeated invocations of the Ten Thousand Law Dao Embryo had drained it completely, barring further use.

Lacking access to the Ten Thousand Law Dao Embryo, fending off even a single Heavenly Fate Realm adversary proved taxing, never mind facing two.

Compounding the threat, one assailant brandished an Ancestral Divine Artifact alongside a formidable arsenal of magical powers.

Silver City clearly sought his demise, surging forward with a palm that blanketed the entire area, aiming to crush him instantly.

The second Heavenly Fate Realm cultivator appeared reluctant at first. But realizing it was do or die, he cast aside doubts and lunged straight at Yang Chen.

Witnessing this onslaught, Yang Chen wasted no time, deploying Spacetime Flash to vanish once more through the fabric of spacetime.

Yet mere moments from departure, unseen hands clamped onto his arm anew, yanking him back. This time, Yang Chen felt their grip distinctly, jolting him.

"It’s that Jade Seal..."

Gazing upon the Jade Seal, Yang Chen probed the ambient energies.

Should his suspicions hold true, this artifact commanded an imperceptible hand capable of instantly ensnaring foes and dictating their motions.

Though unable to hold captives indefinitely, it could repeatedly hinder them.

"Silver City’s merely deploying this Jade Seal to thwart my flight? Squandering an Ancestral Divine Artifact on mere containment seems wasteful. Should that unseen hand seize me and hurl me into his primed Law assault, not even heaven and earth could rescue me..." Yang Chen murmured inwardly.

Currently, Silver City refrained from syncing strikes with his comrade, employing the invisible hand solely to bar Yang Chen’s retreat.

"I need to stay ever vigilant. My soul detects no trace of this invisible hand. Still, it can’t strike without any warning whatsoever. Fail to evade it, and my life hangs by a thread."

Inhaling deeply, Yang Chen accepted that fleeing was no longer viable.

Spacetime entry demanded a brief pause, enough for Silver City to ensnare him mid-transition.

Having thwarted Yang Chen’s escape yet again, Silver City sneered, "Yang Chen, taste another of my strikes!"

Surging Law forces bore down relentlessly upon Yang Chen.

Reacting swiftly, Yang Chen called forth the Crimson Ox Soul and the Spirit of the Firefox for protection.

But even as defenses rose, Silver City’s allied Heavenly Fate Realm expert struck from the rear without mercy.

Just as Yang Chen moved to evade, a peculiar sensation alerted him.

He had vigilantly watched for that invisible hand, yet neither Laws nor soul perception revealed it. Thus, he unleashed his Sa Qi.

Remarkably, Sa Qi granted him faint awareness of the invisible hand.

The Jade Seal’s conjured hand obstructed his path directly.

One more step, and capture was certain!

Such a grasp would spell utter doom, a fact Yang Chen grasped acutely. Lightning-quick, he twisted aside, slipping free of the invisible hand.

"Sa Qi proves effective for detection." Yang Chen evaded once more, sidestepping the rear ambush as well.

"How is that possible?!" Silver City exclaimed in disbelief, "He perceives the Jade Seal’s hand after all. This Yang Chen truly defies expectations. Best to eliminate him swiftly—at least explaining to Sect Master Ling Bie becomes simpler."

With that thought, his visage twisted into deeper malice.

Should this tactic fail, alternatives remained at his disposal.

"Yang Chen, don’t fault me for my ruthlessness." Silver City’s grin darkened further as he unleashed his next assault.

Layer upon layer of Law force erupted, each surge fiercer than the previous.

Yet Silver City prioritized coverage over raw power.

Yang Chen discerned the ploy: Silver City aimed to drive him backward.

"This is..." Tension gripped Yang Chen’s face as Silver City’s barrage sealed the forward route, igniting alarm.

Silver City sought to shove him into the Spatial Divine River!

To his foes, plunging into the Spatial Divine River equaled certain death.

Gritting his teeth, Yang Chen snarled, "Silver City, your viciousness knows no bounds!"

At peak condition, dismantling Silver City’s offense would take but a single counter. Now, bereft of even half his might and hemmed by adversaries, potent techniques lay beyond reach.

Even the Spirit of the Firefox and Crimson Ox Soul, potent against Netherworld foes, faltered here.

"Yang Chen, you might evade the Jade Seal’s hand for now, but let’s see how long that lasts." Silver City bellowed.

Yang Chen darted aside promptly.

In that instant, the approaching Heavenly Fate Realm partner unleashed a treacherous blow, a vast Sky-Roaming Net that brooked no evasion.

Chills raced through Yang Chen; persisting thus invited catastrophe.

Doom beckoned in twin forms: tumbling into the Spatial Divine River,

Or seizure by the Jade Seal’s hand, followed by instant execution by the duo.

Circumstances rendered flight a fading dream.

Fury boiled as Yang Chen ground his teeth. Absent Silver City’s wielding of Ling Bie Dao Zu’s Ancestral Divine Artifact, escape paths existed aplenty. But ceaseless restraint sapped his ability to break free at full power.

Ultimately, blame circled back to Ling Bie Dao Zu.

"Silver City, I, Yang Chen, swear to etch this grudge into my soul!" Declaring thus, Yang Chen vaulted forward without pause, plunging headlong into the Spatial Divine River.

In a blink, he vanished utterly.

This bold vanishing stunned the cluster of Heavenly Fate Realm experts, who never anticipated such resolve—preferring self-destruction over capture!
