âBut in order to find me, you sure have gone to quite the lengths, you old bastard. Youâve actually brought all the sovereigns from the Immortalsâ World and the Demonsâ World to keep the sovereigns of the Saintsâ World busy for you.â
âBut so what? With the Saintsâ Worldâs current strength, even the two worlds combined still donât stand a chance. Iâd like to see just how long you can run around in the Saintsâ World for.â Fang Jing ground her teeth. Afterwards, she swung the Dominionâs Brush in her hand and severed all the karmic ties and heavenly secrets present. She gradually vanished as well.
She had already appeared deep underground beneath the Pingtian Empire silently, sitting in an underground cavern that formed naturally. She said nothing. Her face was uneasy, constantly fluctuating between emotions. Who knew what she was thinking.
Suddenly, she stood up and paced around in the cavern that was not particularly large. She gradually became unsettled. âThe old bastard acts like a man of high morals on the surface, but heâs actually vicious and sinister inside. For the sake of the Book of the Populace, heâs even willing to harm clansmen that are his direct descendants, let alone an outsider like me.â
âItâs just laughable that I actually believed his lies back then and had been kept in the dark by him for all these years. Probably even until now, the entire Waymight clan, or even the entire Immortalsâ World, doesnât know the old bastardâs true colours.â
âWith how vicious the old bastard is, he might even lay his hands on the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance to find the Dominionâs Brush. Now that Iâm not around, how can the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance fend off the Waymight clan with their feeble strength?â
âThereâs even no need for the Waymight clan to do anything personally. Just the subsidiary organisations of the Waymight clan are beyond what the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance can deal with.â
As soon as she thought of that, Fang Jing became even more uneasy. She even became slightly anxious inside.
What she feared the most was the old bastard using the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance to threaten her.
The Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance was her home!
âLooks like I need to return to the Immortalsâ World as quickly as possible. If Iâm not around, the Heavenly Palace of Great Radiance might be in danger at any moment.â
In the past, she never even considered something like this, nor did she have such a worry, as that person had always been the senior she respected the most, filled with righteousness.
But now, after witnessing that personâs true colours, she finally understood that the senior she had always respected was actually someone who could do anything to achieve his goals, regardless of the cost.
Daowei Fatian still refused to give up in the outer space of the Saintsâ World. He began to carry out a second search of the entire Saintsâ World. His search this time was clearly even more careful than the first time.
He would pause at every moment he searched before using the Book of the Populace to sense around, hoping to find something.
In the blink of an eye, twenty hours had already passed since Daowei Fatian infiltrated the Saintsâ World. Four final hours remained until his replicated clone dissipated.
He did not spend a single minute of those twenty hours on disrupting the Grand Exalt of Ancient Pathsâ artifact forging process. As a matter of fact, he passed by the place where the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths resided multiple times, but he did not pay any attention to him.
He only focused on finding the Dominionâs Brush.
âItâs not here. There are still no traces. Jingâer, you possess the Dominionâs Brush. Youâve truly put me in a tough spot. With the Dominionâs Brush, I really canât find you unless you proactively show yourself.â Daowei Fatian hovered in outer space. He held the Book of the Populace in his hands with a deep sense of helplessness.
âNow I can only hope that she still doesnât know about these things.â
Shortly afterwards, he pressed down on the Book of the Populace with one hand. The colossal energy in his body flowed into the Book of the Populace like a flood that had breached a dam. After absorbing Daowei Fatianâs energy, the Book of the Populace immediately shone brightly.The light then turned into an invisible wave that expanded out in all directions, covering every inch of the entire Saintsâ World instantly.
âJingâer, are you in the Saintsâ World? Iâve come to take you back. Show yourself immediately and go back with meâŠâ
Daowei Fatianâs voice merged with the Book of the Populaceâs strange ripple, such that his voice rang through the Saintsâ World, all while being inaudible to everyone.
Only Fang Jing could hear his voice through the Dominionâs Brush.
As for the sovereigns of the world, they would only sense the strange energy ripple from the Book of the Populace. They also could not detect the voice.
âThis is⊠that bookâs power?â The expression of the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths who focused on forging the artifact on one of the seven sacred planes changed slightly. The sudden appearance of the Book of the Populaceâs power in the Saintsâ World made him feel slightly uneasy.
âDonât tell me that Daowei Fatian has already snuck around their line of defence and infiltrated the Saintsâ World?â If that really is the case, I can only hope that the formation Iâve cast can hold him off for a while.â The Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths sighed inside. Despite already casting down a Grand Exaltâs formation in the surroundings, he was also familiar with the Book of the Populaceâs power. He knew his formation could not stop it.
âJingâer, in order to infiltrate the Saintsâ World, Iâve used up a lot of strength and taken on a lot of risk. The Grand Exalts of the Saintsâ World are about to return now. We donât have much time. If youâre still here, please show yourself immediatelyâŠâ
Daowei Fatianâs voice rang out again. This time, there was clearly a sense of anxiety and urgency in his voice.
As he said that, he had already crossed through outer space and arrived outside the Profound Heaven Plane of the forty-nine great planes of the Saintsâ World.
The Profound Heaven Plane was one of the seven sacred planes, as well as the place where the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths broke through countless years ago.
At this moment, the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths forged the artifact on a sacred mountain in the centre of the Profound Heaven Plane. The entire Profound Heaven Plane was already enveloped by a powerful Grand Exaltâs formation, protecting the entire place.
All of the teleportation formations on the Profound Heaven Plane had already been forcefully sealed when the experts of the Immortalsâ World attacked, halting their usage.
There were twelve crucial points to the Grand Exaltâs formation that protected the Profound Heaven Plane. Twelve figures sat there, radiating with tremendous, terrifying presences.
The twelve figures were all Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes.
Among them included the first majesty of the Heavenly Palace of Bisheng, the Nine Brilliance Star Lord from the Star Brilliance Plane, as well as the seven Saint Monarchs from the seven archaean clans of the Saintsâ World.
As for the three other Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes, they were relatively unknown and rarely ever made an appearance, but since they could appear here, it meant that even if they were not as powerful as Yi Xin and the seven Saint Monarchs, the difference in strength was still limited. None of them could be particularly weak.
In order to unleash the limits of this Grand Exaltâs formationâs power, the twelve strongest Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes in the Saintsâ World had already gathered on the Profound Heaven Plane.
In order to ensure that the Grand Exalt of Ancient Paths forged the artifact successfully, the entire Saintsâ World had basically mobilised all of its forces.
âOh no, theyâre here. On guard!â called out Yi Xin, who was sitting on one of the crucial points of the formation.
Immediately, the twelve large figures that resembled gods got to work. Surging energy swept out from their bodies, pouring into the crucial points of the formation without holding anything back.
The twelve crucial points merged together, pushing the defensive strength of the Grand Exaltâs formation to the limit.
As soon as they did that, they saw a colossal book suddenly appear in the space beyond the Profound Heaven Plane, radiating with divine might. Afterwards, it crushed down towards the Profound Heaven Plane with devastating power.
When the Book of the Populace made contact with the protective formation around the Profound Heaven Plane, the defensive formation immediately erupted with blinding light. With a tremendous rumble, the defensive formation actually slowly sank in under the Book of the Populaceâs power. The barrier of light created by the formation caved in bit by bit.
The faces of the twelve Ninth Heavenly Layer Grand Primes that sat on the crucial points paled, but in the next moment, they all stood up at the same time. With a bellow, their energy immediately began to rumble. An even more terrifying force was poured into the formation.
Under their full efforts at maintenance, the Grand Exaltâs formation that protected the Profound Heaven Plane finally began to sink in at a slower rate, temporarily blocking the Book of the Populace.
At this moment, outside the Profound Heaven Plane, Daowei Fatian stood with his arms behind his back on the Book of the Populace that had become a million metres across. Powerful energy was channelled into the Book of the Populace through his feet. At the same time, he said with an urgent voice that completely conflicted with his current, composed posture, âJingâer, Iâve already been detected. Their sovereigns will be returning very soon. Quick, come to my side.â
Deep below the Pingtian Empire in the southern region of the Cloud Plane, Fang Jingâs face was icy-cold. She sneered. âHmph, you old bastard, keep on acting. Iâd like to see how long you can keep this act up for.â
