Chapter 6243: Break This World

“This was changed after.” Black Witch Monarch assessed the area.

“It’s so vast, how will you be able to find the source?” Orchidcore activated his heavenly gaze to no avail.

Everything looked similar enough that they couldn’t distinguish a particular area with a denser concentration of worldly energy.

“Just watch me.” The monarch took out a round plate from his pouch.

It looked complex due to ancient runes and symbols carved on the surface. The juniors had never seen anything like them before.

In the middle was a floating needle rotating with the plate. Tiny pieces with unique symbols scattered about as well.

As the monarch moved the pieces, metallic clanking could be heard as the plate rearranged itself.

“What is this thing?” Princess Chen took her time but couldn’t understand it.

“Child, it’s a compass I invented, finding the earth vein will be effortless. No world source of grand veins can elude me while I have it.” The monarch spoke confidently.

“I can’t tell when you’re serious or just joking anymore.” She responded.

“I don’t need to brag when it comes to something so simple.” He said, prompting her to snort.

He finished arranging the pieces on the compass, forming a straight line with the needle in the center.

“Over there.” He said confidently regarding the compass’ chosen direction: “The dragon vein and the source are right there.”

The group followed his lead and activated their heavenly gaze. Unfortunately, they still only saw mountain ranges and nothing special.

“Can anyone spot a difference?” Monk Zhu asked after a while.

“Fellow Daoist, your art is wonderful.” Bronze-blade also took his time before speaking with admiration: “I meditated for some time and didn’t notice it. Now, I can see that the worldly energy there is more concentrated and looks like a dragon returning.”

“Hahaha, it’s me we’re talking about.” The monarch arched his chest and said: “I am one and only in history, this trick is not worth mentioning. Am I right, Young Noble?”

“It is there indeed, but it’s not easy getting to the source.” Li Qiye said with a smile.

“What must we do?” Bronze-blade asked.

“Destroy this world.” Li Qiye casually answered.

“!” This startled the youths.

“This world had just reformed, it would be unreasonable and wrong to break it.” Princess Chen said.

“What you see is only an illusion, not its true form.” Li Qiye said.

“What do you think it is, Young Noble?” Bronze-blade asked.

“Haha, I see a tomb.” The monarch answered first.

“A tomb? Are you talking about Bodhi Ancestor?” Princess Chen asked.

“That can't be, Bodhi Ancestor didn’t try to ascend or die in Old World, he can’t be buried here.” Bronze-blade said.

“Believe whatever you want.” The monarch said.

Bronze-blade looked up and didn’t see how Bodhi Ancestor could be buried there.

“Let’s go take a look.” He became curious.

“You need to focus on cultivation, go now.” Li Qiye said with a smile.

He understood Li Qiye didn’t want him to tag along. He bowed at Li Qiye and then the monarch: “Thank you, Young Noble. Thank you, Fellow Daoist, I’ll be going ahead.”

With that, he left without any grievance.

“Young Noble, why didn’t we let him come with us?” Li Xian asked.

“My naive child, if Bodhi Ancestor is buried there, we will have to split the treasury with another person.” The monarch glared at him.

“Really?” The princess’ belief wavered.

“Stop messing with them. Let’s go, I see someone.” Li Qiye shook his head at the monarch before moving onward.

The group exchanged glances.

“Do you see anyone?” The princess whispered to her peers.

“There are plenty of people arriving, why is this strange?” Orchidcore whispered back.

“No, it must be someone special.” Monk Zhu said.

“Definitely a big shot.” Mu Hu said while scratching his head.

“Drop the act, what did you see?” The princess said.

“Nothing, I see the same thing as you do.” Mu Hu acted innocently.

“Lies after lies, not telling us about your affiliation with Desolate Frontier.” She continued.

“Well, you didn’t tell us about you being a descendant of Visceraless Young Noble.” He said sharply despite having a silly expression.

“Sigh, I was the biggest idiot and thought I had the strongest background, that’s why I was chosen as the leader. Now, it turned out that I was only a clown, one of you should have been the leader.” Orchidcore complained.

Although they were close, they never tried to pry each other’s history.

“Amitabha, you are our leader since you know the ways of the world, and have a benevolent and flexible personality. This is something we lack and require your guidance.” Monk Zhu said.

“That’s right, stop acting pitiful, you are the right one to lead.” Princess Chen nodded.

“Yep, you’re the boss of the Four Young Saints of Orchid Academy.” Mu Hu nodded.

Among the four, Mu Hu was the oldest and seemed to be the most innocent. However, it turned out that he was only putting up an act, hiding his intelligence and strength.
