“Hand over the Path to Immortality!”
“Only if I die!”
Chen Yi and the Wild Soldier giant face clashed within the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm.
The former stacked various trait tag effects, growing larger and more powerful with each passing moment.
All of the latter's attacks were immune, enraging him to the point of fury. Yet, helpless against Chen Yi, he could only keep dodging.
Chen Yi unleashed all his tricks, fighting freely and without restraint.
What was there to fear?
This was the Blood Moon's home base—no matter how much destruction he caused, there was no burden.
The Wild Soldier had already merged with the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm, allowing him to teleport anywhere within this small world at will.
Seeing that chasing him endlessly wasn't working, Chen Yi snorted coldly and punched the empty air.
“Crack!!”
With his stats boosted, Chen Yi could now shatter the space of a small world with a single punch, just like the Great Demon had.
“Wild Soldier! I know you've been surviving all these years by relying on this small world. I'll tear it apart right now and see how you live then!”
Chen Yi rampaged across the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm. He turned his hands into claws, gathering True Qi. Wherever he passed, he tore through space, leaving behind two expanding spatial fissures that grew wider.
What frustrated Chen Yi was that the Wild Soldier also knew divine marks.
As Chen Yi destroyed things, the Wild Soldier followed right behind, using divine marks to repair them.
Inside the Cauldron Realm, the five City Lords, including Yi Chengsheng, watched the showdown between Chen Yi and the Wild Soldier Founding Ancestor through the cauldron's external view.
Seeing the battle reach a stalemate, with neither able to overpower the other, Yi Chengsheng spoke smugly.
“Shen Yang! I urge you to stop immediately, leave our Ancient Wasteland Upper Realm, and abandon your quest for the Path to Immortality!”
Shen Yang sensed something ominous.
“What are you trying to say?”
“When our Wild Soldier Founding Ancestor awakens, the Blood Moon organization's final revenge plan begins!”
“What are you planning?”
“On the mainland, overseas, in the Starry Domains—our people are lurking everywhere!
Ordinarily, they never contact the Blood Moon, living like ordinary martial artists. But every single one of them bears a divine mark imprint that senses the Founding Ancestor's state.
If the Founding Ancestor sleeps, it means the Ancient Wasteland Upper Realm is safe.
If the Founding Ancestor awakens, it means the Ancient Wasteland Upper Realm is at its final moment!
They will carry out their final mission!”
Even without Yi Chengsheng saying it, Shen Yang could guess this final mission.
The Blood Moon was about to unleash its last burst of madness!
They might be disciples of some sect, elders of some clan, or even high-ranking officials in the government.
At this moment, they would cast off their masks and use the bloodiest means to create chaos in the human world!
Creating chaos wasn't the goal—using it as leverage was.
Shen Yang immediately relayed the information to Hua Wuyan and Chen Yi using the Free and Unfettered Token.
Chen Yi stopped moving.
The Wild Soldier appeared not far from Chen Yi.
“Why don't you continue? Oh, you've learned about the Blood Moon's final move, haven't you?”
The Wild Soldier mocked Chen Yi.
Chen Yi's brows gradually furrowed. Arc flashes began to appear on his body, then vanished again—this was a sign that he was about to enter Super Two.
“You people really are a bunch of lunatics…”
“Everything is for the Path to Immortality!”
“The Path to Immortality has twisted you lot into evil demons!”
“Say what you will. Now that you know our methods, you should know what to do. Accept reality!”
“If I make you fall asleep again, those spies out there should think everything's fine, right?”
“Unfortunately, you don't have that ability.”
At that moment, Chen Yi's golden hair suddenly lengthened. Lightning and thunder wreathed his entire body—he had transformed into his Super Two state!
The Wild Soldier's expression visibly panicked.
He could sense that Chen Yi now possessed power surpassing the Martial God realm!
“Do you really not care about the people outside?!”
“Great Demon!!”
Chen Yi let out a loud roar.
A mass of black demonic energy shot up into the sky, transforming into the scholar-like form of the Great Demon, who charged toward the Wild Soldier's giant face.
“Demon Dragon Nine Transformations!!”
The Great Demon unleashed his ultimate killing move with all his strength.
The Wild Soldier scoffed at it.
“A loser beneath me, coming to die again!”
The Wild Soldier's eyes widened, shooting out two dark golden beams that shattered the Great Demon's ultimate move head-on!
Just then, he sensed Chen Yi closing in and unhesitatingly used his spatial displacement ability again.
“It's useless! No matter how strong you are, you can't catch me!”
The Wild Soldier had just materialized elsewhere when a coquettish voice sounded.
“Don't be afraid~ Feeling dizzy is totally normal~”
The Sun Moon Tower!
“What?!”
A massive crash!
The Sun Moon Tower, which had appeared from who knows where, precisely slammed down onto the Wild Soldier's head, trapping him firmly and temporarily preventing him from using his spatial displacement ability.
During his fight with the Wild Soldier earlier, Chen Yi had noticed some small details.
For instance, the Wild Soldier's habits when teleporting—which direction and how far.
And also, that after each teleport, he couldn't immediately teleport again—there was a recovery period.
Chen Yi worked with the Great Demon: one drew attention while the other stealthily took the Sun Moon Tower and threw it with perfect accuracy.
Chen Yi admitted he was taking a gamble.
But he had gambled correctly.
This was the weight of 100 Luck!
“Senior Hua, take our people out of the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm!”
Chen Yi had already activated the Trait Slingshot. The golden slingshot was in his hands, and a trait tag named “Vehicle Killer” was nocked and ready.
Beside him, the Great Demon punched open a passage leading outside and flew out.
Hua Wuyan and Shen Yang worked together to open a spatial passage, escorting the surviving martial artists, including the Sword Lord, out of the Ancient Wasteland Secret Realm.
The Ancient Wasteland Survivors, meanwhile, were cheering jubilantly.
They thought the outsiders had chickened out and voluntarily retreated.
Little did they know, today would be their doom.
The Wild Soldier was trapped inside the Sun Moon Tower, desperately struggling to break out.
Seeing Chen Yi aiming the slingshot at him, the Wild Soldier could sense that this thing seemed to pose a threat to him.
“What are you doing?! If you kill me, you'll never get the Path to Immortality!”
“I don't believe that something left by the Human Ancestor can be held hostage by scum like you!”
“You dare gamble on that?!”
“A single Path to Immortality spawned you devils. Even if it gets destroyed, that might not be a bad thing!”
“Lunatic! Lunatic! You're crazier than us!!”
The Wild Soldier was truly panicked now.
He could see the deep, murderous intent in Chen Yi's eyes.
Suddenly, he thought of something.
“I am one with the Ancient Wasteland Realm! If you kill me, this world will collapse! Everyone inside will die!”
“Figured as much.”
That was why Chen Yi had told Hua Wuyan to take the people out.
“Even if we Wild Soldiers were wrong, our descendants are innocent! Many of them don't even know what the Blood Moon is, and they're not martial artists either! If you slaughter the innocent, what difference is there between you and the Blood Moon you hate so much?!”
“Every single person here was born enjoying the benefits brought by the Path to Immortality, living an idyllic, carefree life here!
Where are they innocent?!
When there's profit, they sit high and mighty. When death comes, they cry innocence?!
There's no such logic in this world!!!”
Chen Yi let go. The “Vehicle Killer” shot out, striking the immobile Wild Soldier dead on!
