...

Outside the Divine Carving Ridge.

Space twisted violently, as if a blade mark appeared, slowly releasing an overwhelming surge of black Qi from the rend.

The fissure was torn open, supporting the formation of a portal.

One towering figure after another, resembling obsidian with strange patterns blooming upon their surfaces, stepped out from within.

They were none other than the Demigod Corpses of the Corpse God Cult.

Their scarlet eyes turned, gazing toward the direction of the Divine Carving Ridge, where thick, stacked layers of black clouds roiled. Within the clouds, lightning flickered and interwove.

”This anomaly... it seems the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod of the Two-Minded Great Sage is about to be unearthed.”

”The Cult Master has commanded that we must obtain this Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod. Only then can we locate that entity in Qi Tian City...”

”The Heavenly Corpse!”

Leading the group was a Demigod Corpse whose obsidian body bore two blooming, eerie patterns.

Behind it were two more Demigod Corpses, each with a single strange pattern etched upon their obsidian forms.

”Furthermore, the Underworld seems to have been tracking our whereabouts recently... However, the Underworld should have no knowledge of the Corpse God Realm of our Cult. Hidden within the Corpse God Realm, severed from the outside world, they cannot detect us.”

”The Underworld... can only stew in their frustration.”

A calm voice resonated.

”It likely stems from the day I smashed Yellow Sword Wine ten times, stirring up some suspicions.”

The dual-patterned Demigod Corpse spoke coolly.

”No matter. The Underworld doesnʼt need to concern us. Their methods are strange, indeed... even after Yellow Sword Wine died ten times, he still managed to survive...”

”This Underworld, emerging from who-knows-where, is even more sinister than our Corpse God Cult.”

The gaze of the dual-patterned Demigod Corpse grew icy and distant.

”The Qian Yuan Divine Sect cannot monopolize the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod. The Grand Prospect Dynasty will surely not allow it... The Dynasty, plagued by internal strife and external threats, desperately needs the legacy of Equal Heaven Temple as a lifeline.”

”On the other hand, Lv Taibai has recently taken Li Nuanxi as his final direct disciple and established her as the Divine Sectʼs Young Sect Master, inheriting the sectʼs fate and the Dao Yun of the Qianyuan Ancestor Master...”

”This, as of now, can be seen as a weak spot for the Divine Sect.”

”The Hunting God Pavilionʼs bounty board in the Qianyuan Dao City lists her as third. If Li Nuanxi were killed, one could claim the bounty of a Four Imperial Divine Crystal. A mere junior at the Grandmaster Divine Foundation level, and yet sheʼs worth a Four Imperial Divine Crystal.”

”Even I... canʼt help but consider donning the Star Mask of the Hunting God Pavilion.”

The Demigod Corpse licked its lips uncontrollably.

The identities of the Hunting God Pavilion assassins were myriad, and unless they perished and their mask was removed, no one could discern their true selves.

The Star Masks, crafted by the Pavilion Master of the Hunting God Pavilion—the Divine Weapon Saint Hand—were renowned.

These masks, exquisite creations among the Five Eldersʼ Divine Weapons, could even suppress and alter the Death Qi and Corpse Qi emanating from the bodies of Demigod Corpses.

Rumors held that Hunter King Masks were of even higher grade.

Unfortunately, with his status, he could not obtain a Hunter King Mask...

The Hunting Kings of the Pavilion...

The Demigod Corpseʼs eyes flickered. Even with the alteration of aura provided by the Hunter King Mask, in reality...

They were but figures standing at the pinnacle of existence.

”Forget it. Letʼs not alert anyone. With Li Nuanxi ranking third on the bounty list, the allure of profit will inevitably draw action from others...”

”Moreover, it will create some trouble for Lv Taibai, allowing us the room to make a move for the Heart-following Gold Iron Divine Rod.”

...

...

Li Che teleported himself to the Two-Minded Great Sageʼs Mysterious Temple using the Flying Thunder Chess Piece.

This unexpectedly drew the attention of many factions.

At the moment, his heart was entirely immersed in the thrill of forging the Shen Yuan Golden Elixir.
