Chapter 323: Here’s Johnny Actually

After a cultivator entered the Martial Extermination Realm, their cultivation would experience a fundamental transformation.

The reason behind the transformation was due to the fusion between the cultivator’s extermination origin and the world itself.

An obvious effect of the metamorphosis was that Martial Extermination Realm experts could fly through the air. They could also interact with the heaven and earth origin of the world.

Of course, they could also receive inheritances. Especially for those in holy lands. They had Martial Dipper Realm ancestors standing over their heads and they didn’t lack Martial Dipper Realm inheritances…

Other than those inheritances, the Martial Extermination Realm experts of those holy lands could also receive special secret arts that were custom-made for them according to the special properties of their extermination origins.

As an elder of the White Deer Paradise, Wei Zhongwen managed to receive the teachings of a Martial Dipper Realm ancestor. That was how he comprehended the secret art he used on the Tongyou Mysterious World.

When ordinary Martial Extermination Realm experts struck the protection barrier around the Tongyou Mysterious World, the gap would close up quickly due to the interference of the formation masters within. Heaven and earth qi and world origin might escape, but compared to the amount the Tongyou Mysterious World took in earlier, it was barely considered anything.

However, things were different when Wei Zhongwen used his secret art. It corroded the protection barrier, making it extremely difficult to close up again.

The world origin that the Tongyou Mysterious World absorbed earlier gushed out violently.

With a burst of maniacal laughter, Wei Zhongwen opened his arms to bathe in the torrent of world origin.

When Yang Hu wanted to do the same, he discovered something wrong. Opening his mouth, he released an enraged roar in a certain direction. As the sound wave rocked through the air, a masked figure who was several dozen feet away was forced out of the space he was hiding in.

“Who goes there?!” Yang Hu felt that anyone who could be hiding around him had to be an enemy. Without hesitation, he revealed his extermination origins. Three strands of extermination origin pulsed around him and quickly formed a giant tiger. Surprisingly, the tiger only had one eye. It released a soundless roar before pouncing at the masked figure who appeared.

The masked figure was charging at Yang Hu when he was revealed, but he decided to turn to run once the tiger had formed in the air.

Yang Hu’s roar attracted a lot of attention. Who would have thought that the masked figure would leave without fighting?

Yang Hu was unable to guess the other person’s intentions, but when he finally snapped back to reality, he discovered that Mister Bu had already disappeared.

.

Just a second ago, Mister Bu was on his last breath. Who would have thought that the heavily injured Mister Bu would disappear all of a sudden?

Is he dead?

Yang Hu thought to himself and a frown appeared on his face. Thinking deeper into the matter, he realized that the masked cultivator had appeared to save Mister Bu!

Who could it be?!

For someone to hoodwink Yang Hu and save someone under his nose, he had to be a Martial Extermination Realm cultivator!

When Mister Bu attacked Wei Zhongwen earlier, he already revealed his identity as an ally of the Tongyou Institution. There was only one other explanation. The masked cultivator was a Martial Extermination Realm cultivator from the Tongyou Institution!

However, that brought another question. Why would the masked cultivator save Mister Bu at the last second? He didn’t make his move earlier to interfere with the battle but appeared at the last second to save a dying man.

Even though there were many suspicions in his mind, Yang Hu wasn’t able to act on them. Mister Bu was gone, but he had too many things to do.

The Tongyou Institution wouldn’t sit by idly and watch as the world origin poured out of the Tongyou Mysterious World to be absorbed by Wei Zhongwen. They would definitely try to launch an attack to affect Wei Zhongwen in any way they could.

Many of the Martial Extermination Realm experts who came to attack the Tongyou Mysterious World flocked towards Wei Zhongwen when they saw the huge amount of world origin around him.

Yang Hu received instructions from Wei Zhongwen earlier to protect him during the time he was absorbing the world origin and to stop those who would try to interfere with his business. As such, he quickly leaped into action to fight those who were approaching.

When that was happening, another terrifying change happened in the direction of the Changfeng City. The skies that had lost its color earlier from the destructive battle experienced another change. It was as though a massive sun had descended upon the lands.

A streak of light appeared above the Changfeng City and stretched towards the Tongyou City, forming a heavenly bridge.

Seeing as the bridge was about to land on the Tongyou Mysterious World, Ji Wenlong, who was fighting the spirit projection of the other Martial Dipper Realm expert from the southwestern direction created a huge blade of heaven and earth qi before slamming it down onto the bridge.

“Does the White Deer Paradise wish to interfere with the matters of our You Continent?” Ji Wenlong roared.

Before the blade could crash into the bridge, a figure could be seen strolling casually towards the Tongyou City.

“You Continent? Hmph, the You Continent should have been destroyed twenty years ago.” A smile appeared on the newcomer’s face and he casually raised his fingers to meet Ji Wenlong’s blade. The powerful blade that contained endless might was stopped dead in its tracks.

Ji Wenlong wasn’t a Martial Dipper Realm expert to begin with. He was using the power contained in the Tongyou Mysterious World to resist the spirit projection from the Martial Dipper Realm expert from the Bing Continent.

Now that he was distracted, a jade green light flashed across his body, tearing a swathe of energy from the Mysterious Tongyou World.

Ji Wenlong regained his focus as he shattered the ray of jade green light before regaining a part of the energy it was attempting to take away.

Only then, the Martial Dipper Realm ancestor of the White Deer Paradise spoke. “Hehe, looks like I’m not the only one here.”

“Hmph, likewise…” A deep voice rang through the skies, and even though no one could tell the direction it came from, they knew that the person who replied to the ancestor of the White Deer Paradise was the Martial Dipper Realm expert from the Bing Continent.

In the time it took for them to exchange pleasantries, the Martial Dipper Realm ancestor from the White Deer Paradise had already appeared beside Wei Zhongwen. He also managed to control the rose-colored bridge that he summoned to land beside the region where Wei Zhongwen was absorbing the world origin that was leaking out of the Tongyou Mysterious World.

As soon as the end of the rose-colored bridge was formed, Wei Zhongwen leaped out from the huge tide of world origin. “Disciple greets Ancestor Yun Lu!”

Ancestor Yun Lu nodded slightly. “You did well this time! I appreciate what you have done. In the future, you’ll definitely enter the large completion stage of the Martial Extermination Realm!”

A look of excitement appeared on Wei Zhongwen’s face as he replied, “Ancestor, this disciple only carried out your plan. I only managed to accomplish this with your guidance.”

Ancestor Yun Lu nodded yet again, and his gaze landed on Yang Hu who was right beside them. “You must be Yang Hu from the Changfeng City.”

Bowing immediately, Yang Hu didn’t dare to show the slightest disrespect. Wei Zhongwen’s voice rang through the air before he could say anything. “Replying to Ancestor Yun Lu, this is indeed City Lord Yang Hu. He was a crucial part of our success this time!”

Even though he was an expert at the third layer Martial Extermination Realm, Yang Hu felt his mind going blank. He didn’t know what to say to Ancestor Yun Lu.

“That’s good.” Ancestor Yun Lu muttered before turning to ignore Yang Hu completely.

Even though he heaved a sigh of relief, Yang Hu felt a sense of dissatisfaction rising in his heart after noting Ancestor Yun Lu’s nonchalance.

When he was still stuck in a state of confusion over his feelings, Wei Zhongwen arrived beside him. “Brother Yang, I need you to protect the bridge with me.”

Even though Yang Hu didn’t know why he needed to do so with Ancestor Yun Lu present, he knew better than to question Wei Zhongwen’s command at that point. A smile returned to his face and he replied, “Naturally. I’ll do as you say.”

The conversation between the two barely ended when Yang Hu discovered that the world origin around them had been sucked completely dry. In fact, the bridge was extending into the gap to forcefully absorb the world origin and heaven and earth qi contained in the Tongyou Mysterious World.
