Underground of Ghostwood Manor.

 

Zhang Ruochen sent Lian Xi into the stone door of the seven-story ancient tower.

 

The door was a dimensional teleportation array. It could reach the dimension of the universe ten billion miles away from the Royal City of Hundred Clans. The Cloaking Array set up by Mandala Goddess was still there, but the Origin Sea of Qi there had been put into Violet Gourd by Ji Fanxin.

 

This secret passage connected the inside and outside of the Royal City of Hundred Clans. Only a God at the level of Mandala Goddess could set up such a powerful dimensional teleportation array.

 

It would be pretty safe to leave from here.

 

Returning from the stone door of the ancient tower, Zhang Ruochen saw Ji Fanxin sitting under the old tree covered with crimson leaves.

 

“You’re harming her by letting her go,” Ji Fanxin said.

 

“I’m done with her. Just let her go on her way.”

 

Zhang Ruochen stood with his sword in his hand. His gaze was indifferent, and his temperament was as cold as an ice mountain that hadn’t melted for thousands of years. “We’re leaving!”

 

“Are we following your way or mine?” Ji Fanxin knew where to go.

 

Zhang Ruochen said, “Come with me.”

 

“You really do know the exact location of Fane of Origin.”

 

“I only know one possible location. The exact location depends on you.”

 

Ji Fanxin always felt that the Zhang Ruochen she saw this time was not the same person as the one she saw last time. If it were not for the fact that he and Lian Xi came together with Ancient Abyssal Blade in his hands, she would have thought that the Zhang Ruochen in front of her was an imposter transformed by another cultivator.

 

“Alright, I’ll go with you. Do I need to hide inside your macroworld?” Ji Fanxin asked.

 

Zhang Ruochen shook his head. “You must transform into someone and travel with me with her identity.”

 

“Who?”

 

“Bai Qing’er.”

 

Ji Fanxin was puzzled. “Why?”

 

“Two reasons.”

 

“First, even if you hide in my macroworld and go to Fane of Origin, you still need to show yourself. By then, you’ll need an identity that you can use in Infernal Court.

 

“Second, I won’t lie to you. My main purpose for this operation is not Fane of Origin but another important matter. If you transform into Bai Qing’er and come with me, I’ll owe you a huge favor. In the future, as long as you say a word, I, Zhang Ruochen, will definitely overcome all difficulties, whether it’s a mountain of knives, a sea of fire, or 100,000 gods and demons to help you.”

 

Ji Fanxin shook her head, and she sighed. “I didn’t realize until now that your biggest change isn’t your temperament but your ability to please girls! No wonder the princess of Devala and the eldest daughter of Yanluo Clan fell in love with you.”

 

“So you agreed?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

 

Ji Fanxin smiled and said, “You have to take responsibility for what you said today. I accept your great favor!”

 

Swoosh!

 

Zhang Ruochen pointed his finger gently in the air.

 

Wisps of air gathered and condensed into Bai Qing’er’s appearance. It was vivid and lifelike, just like a natural person. Then, the Bai Qing’er formed from the air opened her mouth and spoke with a charming voice.

 

This fake body wasn’t brilliant. It could only fool cultivators in Saint Kinghood.

 

To fool a Supreme Saint or even a god, Ji Fanxin should be the one who transforms herself. Ji Fanxin’s spiritual power was extremely high. Ordinary gods would find it hard to see if it was a real or fake body unless they looked closely.

 

Ji Fanxin’s learning ability was powerful. Soon, she transformed into Bai Qing’er, learning Bai Qing’er’s tone and habits.

 

…

 

At noon, Zhang Ruochen and the veiled Bai Qing’er appeared in the Royal City of Hundred Clans and headed towards the Yakshas.

 

The cultivators who had been watching Zhang Ruochen immediately spread the shocking news and reported it to the leaders of the major forces in the Royal City of Hundred Clans.

 

In the sacred ground of Terra Demon.

 

Xuan Qingying told the news to the clan emperor.

 

The clan emperor knew this was unusual and immediately visited Yan Yu.

 

Yan Yu was a little surprised when he heard it. He said, “When did Bai Qing’er enter the city? Why is there no news at all?”

 

“I’m not sure! After the House of Enchanteurs of Hoth was destroyed, this woman disappeared without a trace. All the major forces thought she had been killed by the Heavenly Retribution Talisman! No one thought she would suddenly appear again and be together with Zhang Ruochen. These two should be incompatible,” Terra Demon’s Emperor said.

 

Yan Yu put his hands behind his back and slowly walked forward. “At that time, when Heavenly Retribution Talisman was suppressed, Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er disappeared simultaneously. Now, they appear together. What does this mean?”

 

“Could it be that they’ve been together all this time? Or could it be that the disappearance of the five supreme-quality Divine Crystals of Origin in the House of Enchanteurs of Divine Domain of Destiny and the deaths of Xing Qian and Tan Fei were all planned by them? They’ve been blaming each other all this time. But in fact, they’re just trying to confuse us.”

 

Yan Yu smiled. “No matter what the truth is, one thing is certain. The five supreme-quality Divine Crystals of Origin must be on one of them. The two appeared together and even went to the Yakshas’ sacred ground. The answer is already undeniable.”

 

“I’ll gather the cultivators and head to the Yakshas’ sacred ground.”

 

Before Terra Demon’s emperor could finish his last word, he found that Yan Yu had already disappeared before his eyes.

 

…

 

The Yakshas’ sacred ground.

 

After hearing the news, the originally silent man let out a long laugh and said, “It turns out that this pair of adulters have already gotten together. Good, very good. They finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. Let’s go to the Yakshas’ sacred ground.”

 

“They want to take Fane of Origin for themselves. Let’s see if they can do it,” Nan Sheng said.

 

He had agreed to come to the Royal City of Hundred Clans with Yuan Qianmo because of Fane of Origin.

 

…

 

In the sacred ground of a small clan in the Royal City of Hundred Clans, Luo Shengtian said in surprise, “Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er showed up at the same time and went to the Yakshas’ sacred ground? When did this happen?”

 

“It just happened.”

 

Feng Qingli said coldly, “Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er really played us all. I don’t know when they got together. I really feel bad for my junior sister. Zhang Ruochen has been flirting with women everywhere. He has never thought about junior sister’s feelings.”

 

Shang Xia’s figure appeared in Luo Shengtian’s mind. He felt a little guilty and didn’t dare to answer. He said quickly, “Let’s go. We should go to the Yakshas’ sacred ground first.”

 

…

 

Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er deliberately hid their tracks so fewer cultivators could stalk them. However, the news was still quickly spread.

 

More than a dozen forces that knew about the birth of the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin received the news and rushed to the Yakshas’ sacred ground.

 

The forces who were only attracted by the Light of Origin but that didn’t know about the birth of the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin sensed the unusual atmosphere and rushed to the vicinity of the Yakshas’ sacred ground.

 

The news was immediately spread through the wormhole to the Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt, alerting the Paramount Realm Supreme Saints of the various major powers stationed there.

 

The major forces elites such as Xing Luo, Yuan Qianmo, Madam Nixuan, Guye Jing, Dishastan, Roopkund Sea, Hollow Chasm, Fane of Barasingha, and other major powers gathered together.

 

Yuan Qianmo, who had always been calm, was the first to speak. He said aggressively, “I want to go to the Royal City of Hundreds Clan immediately, but Fane of Death will leave ten Paramount Realm Supreme Saints to help Fane of Destiny to deal with Ji Fanxin.”

 

“You are the main force to deal with Ji Fanxin. If you leave, we will fall from grace!” Madam Nixuan clan said.

 

A superior of Paramount Realm from Fane of Barasingha sneered. “Of course, Madam Nixuan is not in a hurry. I’m afraid you already know that the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin is with Zhang Ruochen, right? Does your Xue Jue Family want to unite with the Enchanteur Chamber and take over Fane of Origin ?”

 

Madam Nixuan said coldly, “Even if the supreme-grade Divine Crystal of Origin is in Zhang Ruochen’s hands, it is still his skill to obtain it. If Wargod knows, I’m afraid he’ll praise him.

 

“Actually, I don’t think you need to be so impatient. We don’t know what happened. If the superior-grade Divine Crystal of Origin was in Zhang Ruochen’s hands, he would have gone to Fane of Origin long ago. Why did he went to Hoth?

 

“I think Bai Qing’er must have kidnapped Zhang Ruochen. It’s also possible that the Celestial Court’s cultivators transformed into Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er to create a diversion and save Ji Fanxin, who is trapped here. There are many possibilities. Everyone, please stay calm.”

 

Madam Nixuan was unable to convince everyone. Cultivators from all the major forces had left, and Fane of Destiny was no exception.

 

After all, Fane of Origin was too important!

 

It was even more critical than Tensho Compass and the Yuanhui-level genius Ji Fanxin.

 

…

 

Bai Qing’er stood in the empty, dark, and cold universe in Ji Fanxin’s appearance. She used her Divine Eye of Origin to look in the direction of the Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt.

 

Beside her stood Lord Turtle, General Pillar, Wuma Jiuxing, and Hand of the World, Duan Lingfeng. All of them were full of energy, their auras were powerful, and their energy waves were like rivers and seas.

 

She said, “Half of the elites have suddenly left. It seems like something big has happened.”

 

“What could be more important than killing a Yuanhui-level genius from the Celestial Court?” Duan Lingfeng said.

 

Bai Qing’er said, “Fane of Origin is coming into being.”

 

Wuma Jiuxing’s eyes lit up. It was evident that he had great expectations for Fane of Origin.

 

“If I’m not wrong, Zhang Ruochen must have met the real Ji Fanxin! Based on Ji Fanxin’s perception of the supreme-quality Divine Crystal of Origin, they must have been on their way to find Fane of Origin. That’s why we have to make a move,” Bai Qing’er said.

 

Duan Lingfeng asked, “Junior Sister, why are you so sure that the real Ji Fanxin has come to Infernal Court?”

 

“There aren’t many Masters of Origin in the world. Who else can Zhang Ruochen find if not Ji Fanxin? Besides, Zhang Ruochen is in Hundred-Shackle Realm now. He needs to practice Saintwill diligently. Ji Fanxin can help him.”

 

Bai Qing’er continued, “Now is the time I’ve been telling you. When Zhang Ruochen goes to Fane of Origin, it’s time I break through the inescapable trap of Fane of Destiny in Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt.”

 

Lord Turtle, General Pillar, Wuma Jiuxing, and Duan Lingfeng’s bodies quickly faded and disappeared.

 

Only Bai Qing’er was left. She turned into a shooting star and flew toward Oort Cloud Asteroid Belt.
