Chapter 296: Extermination Mist

“All of you?” Chen Sanyang raised his eyebrow and something seemed to have caught his attention.

Lin Yi continued, “When Martial Uncle Liang detected the presence of Martial Extermination Realm experts and rushed over, I, Shan Dao, Yuan Gang, and Di Xian followed behind him. From the looks of it, those people were setting up a trap to lure Martial Uncle Liang over. Once he arrived, they surrounded him in a joint attack.”

Chen Sanyang frowned. “Slow down. Martial Uncle Liang has always been careful, how will he be tricked so easily? With his strength, unless Kou Chongxue appeared personally, wouldn’t he be able to escape?”

“I thought about it for a long time and only one possibility is left. Did you forget about the other Martial Extermination Realm cultivator who crossed the spatial barrier with us the other day?” Lin Yi sighed.

“Youshang? Are you talking about him? Do you think he was part of those who plotted against Martial Uncle Liang? Why would you say that?” Chen Sanyang became more confused. However, it seemed as though Lin Yi’s deduction made sense.

Lin Yi turned extremely solemn and he continued, “I suspect that he’s doing the same thing as Yu Cangze. Either he’s a traitor of our Azure Spiritual World, or the Azure Origin World planted him as a spy in our world.”

“Don’t you know why Martial Uncle Liang brought Youshang over? Didn’t they conduct a check on his background before?” Chen Sanyang decided to get to the bottom of the matter. After all, he crossed the barrier a long time before the others. There might be things he didn’t know about.

Lin Yi shook his head in response. “He met us along the way. Martial Uncle Liang said that Youshang was a friend he had made a long time ago and they were closer than blood brothers. When Youshang heard that Martial Uncle Liang was going to take the risk of crossing into the Azure Origin World, he chose to come along to provide assistance…”

Chen Sanyang stroked his chin and fell deep into thought. After some time, he muttered, “That’s coincidental… Did Martial Uncle Liang agree right away? No, that’s not possible. Martial Uncle Liang’s mission to enter the Azure Origin World was supposed to be one of the highest level secrets in our Changbai Holy Land. How can he mention it to Youshang so easily?”

Shrugging his shoulders, Lin Yi gestured wildly. “What’s the point of mentioning all these now? Maybe Martial Uncle Liang trusted him wholeheartedly. Who the hell cares? I suspect that Youshang sneak attacked Martial Uncle Liang from behind, causing him severe injuries. That was the reason he was unable to run away…”

Seeing the look on Chen Sanyang’s face, Lin Yi finally raged. “You fucker! Are you suspicious of me?!”

Chen Sanyang growled. “The more you act like this, the more suspicious you look.”

The two of them stared at each other in silence and tensions started to rise. Eventually, Lin Yi folded.

“Alright…” With a trace of guilt, Lin Yi spoke about everything else that happened. He talked about how they laid down the Essence Harmony Pulse Formation. However, they were interrupted by a Martial Intent Realm expert and the other three were killed.

“So… You ran away because you were scared and by pure luck, you ran in a different direction from the hideout, allowing you to avoid being killed by the next round of assault?” Chen Sanyang glared at Lin Yi when he saw the embarrassed smile on his face. His voice sank a little further. “From your description, that youngster should be Shang Xia of the Shang Clan. Oh right. Did you say that he’s capable of using Yin Lian’s bow?”

“The bow he’s using looks pretty similar to what she used. However, there were several shreds of cloth around the bow and I can’t be sure.” Lin Yi sighed.

“Hah! It has to be!” Chen Sanyang slapped his thigh in glee all of a sudden, catching Lin Yi off guard.

Raising an eyebrow, Chen Sanyang decided to let Lin Yi in on some information. “Shang Xia was the last person who met Kou Chongxue. All we need to do is to send out the message that he’s currently residing around the Changfeng City and this entire area will be thrown into chaos.”

Lin Yi couldn’t believe what he was hearing. “What has that got to do with our predicament now?”

At that moment, they were the only ones left in the Azure Origin World. Shouldn’t their priority be finding a way to return to their world? Who the hell cared about catching Martial Uncle Liang’s murderer or whatever dude called Shang Xia?

However, the two of them didn’t know that the legendary being who could throw the entire region into chaos as described by Chen Sanyang was hiding a short distance behind them. He heard their conversation loud and clear, and he was feeling extremely annoyed. He didn’t expect Chen Sanyang to guess his identity so easily!

If they were to leak his tracks, it was very likely that he would be located in Changfeng City before long. Even if he started running away that instant, Hai Min and Yuanyuan would be in for a great deal of trouble.

The two of them also had another identity that couldn’t be compromised!

It seemed as though the only way to protect himself and the two of them were to ensure that Chen Sanyang and Lin Yi would never be able to leave the area.

A ray of frosty light flashed through his eyes and killing intent rose in his heart. Before he could start circulating his inner qi, a sharp pain came from under his ribs and he had to gasp for breath. The wound that closed the day before was clearly not fully healed yet.

Shang Xia discovered that the wounds caused by his Woundless Spear could only recover with time. Medicine and treasures wouldn’t do much in helping in his healing journey. If he forcefully tried to circulate his inner qi and attack the two of them, he would only be able to use 80 percent of his strength!

With the element of surprise, it might not be a problem to take on one of them. However, two of them weren’t easy enemies to deal with!

When Shang Xia was considering his next course of action, the voices returned.

“Are you really content returning to the Azure Spiritual World with your tail tucked between your legs?” Chen Sanyang sounded extremely displeased with the situation.

Lin Yi rolled his eyes before complaining, “What else can we do? The true battle between our two worlds will involve Martial Extermination Realm experts. The reason I came looking for you is because of your Multi World Anchoring Flag. As long as we join forces, we should be able to cross the dense fog and spatial barrier leading back to our world.”

Chen Sanyang sneered in response, “Stop dreaming. Even with the Multi World Anchoring Flag, we need a Martial Extermination Realm to use it. The two of us are basically stranded in the Azure Origin World. Unless you’re willing to run all the way to the Linya Peak to beg them to help us, there’s nothing we can do about it. Moreover, the Linya Peak belongs to the Mulan Holy Land. It’s one thing for us to embarrass ourselves, but it’s another to embarrass our Changbai Holy Land. We might even die without a proper burial ground if we head over there…”

After Chen Sanyang spoke about the various implications, he saw a strange smile appearing on Lin Yi’s face. He slapped a boulder beside him and he chuckled, “do you know why I chose to bring you to this place?”

“Why?” Chen Sanyang frowned.

“Did you not realize that the mist in this place is able to restrict your divine sense?” Lin Yi said in excitement.

Spreading out his divine sense, Chen Sanyang discovered that it was true! The look in his eyes changed. “Extermination Mist? Is this a place used to nurture extermination origins? Damn! Your luck is really…”

Lin Yi gloated. “That’s right. The mist is indeed extermination mist. However, there’s no extermination origin at the source of this lake. I suspect that this lake starts to split underwater. The location where the extermination origin is located should be somewhere underground. The water that flows down the mountain is merely stained by the extermination qi produced by the extermination origin…”

Chen Sanyang continued, “Do you think we can locate the spiritual vein that produces the extermination origin?!”

“Hehe, I knew you would ask that question. Are you thinking of locating it so you can prepare to break through to the Martial Extermination Realm? Do you think that’s my real intention here?” Lin Yi snorted.

An awkward expression appeared on Chen Sanyang’s face. He wasn’t truly greedy. However, no cultivator would refuse an extermination origin! After all, an extermination origin was truly precious and it was the key to entering the Martial Extermination Realm! It wasn’t something easily obtainable in the Azure Origin World or the Azure Spiritual World! It was no wonder Chen Sanyang would get so worked up.

Many cultivators at the Martial Intent Realm had reached the peak of their cultivation level but were stuck there due to the inability to obtain a suitable extermination origin.

Both Lin Yi and Chen Sanyang had completed their third divine sense transformation. The two of them were also highly regarded disciples of the Changbai Holy Land. Both of them were cultivators who were expected to enter the Martial Extermination Realm in the future. However, that also meant that they were rivals who would be competing with each other for resources.

The more Chen Sanyang thought about it, the more he realized that there was no reason for Lin Yi to tell him about the extermination origin.

After exerting a little more brain power, Chen Sanyang discovered Lin Yi’s true intentions. “Are you planning to make use of the extermination qi here to tear open the spatial barrier to enter the battlefield between the two worlds?”

Lin Yi pressed his lips together and sighed, “What else? Do you think I was giving you an opportunity to enter the Martial Extermination Realm?”

Only Martial Extermination Realm experts who had refined their extermination origin would be able to tear open the spatial barrier with their own abilities.

However, with Chen Sanyang’s Multi World Anchoring Flag, they could gather the extermination qi in the air before unleashing an attack on the spatial barrier to split it open.

The Multi World Anchoring Flag had another use. The Changbai Holy Land managed to set up many leading formations in the battlefield between the two worlds, allowing the user of the Multi World Anchoring Flag to find their way around. Martial Extermination Realm experts might be able to travel through the spatial barrier, but they wouldn’t be able to find their way around without the use of the treasure!

Chen Sanyang understood that Lin Yi’s revelation of the extermination origin was his way of issuing an ultimatum. If Chen Sanyang rejected his proposal, Lin Yi would have to turn against him in order to protect his secret.

Chen Sanyang fell deep into contemplation. He was truly unwilling to give up everything he had arranged in the Changfeng City to return to the Azure Spiritual World with Lin Yi. He turned to look at his fellow comrade and sighed, “Junior Brother Lin, is it possible for you to give me a few days to think about it?”

Before Lin Yi could react, Chen Sanyang continued, “I won’t hide anything from you. I’ve been making some arrangements in the Changfeng City for the past half a year. I achieved some results, and I am truly unwilling to let everything go to waste. The moment I disappear, the plans I made in the Changfeng City won’t be the only thing to go wrong. The members of the Ji Continent might also come up with other plans. If that affects our cooperation with the White Deer Paradise, I would have let our Changbai Holy Land down! I won’t be able to atone for my sins even if I died a hundred times over!”

Lin Yi’s expression sank and he growled, “How long do you need?”

Gritting his teeth, Chen Sanyang eventually replied, “Three days. Give me three more days! Moreover, the extermination qi in the air right now is pretty scattered. Even if you use my Multi World Anchoring Flag, you will need some time to gather enough extermination qi to open the spatial barrier.”

“Alright.” Lin Yi agreed, and an excited expression appeared on Chen Sanyang’s face. He wasn’t the only one. Shang Xia was equally as excited.

His chance was finally here! They were going to split up!

As Chen Sanyang was about to leave, Lin Yi’s voice rang through the air, causing Chen Sanyang and Shang Xia’s expression to freeze.

“I’ll wait for three days, but you have to leave the Multi World Anchoring Flag with me.”
