Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The moon illuminated the sky, vaguely revealing a valley that was surrounded by mountains. A stream that sparkled with a silvery-white light from the moonlight snaked through the valley. A cool breeze blew in the air, bringing the smell of the ocean with it. The sound of waves hitting the shore rang softly in the air as well.

Sea creatures such as mussel women were seen carrying plates of food while the mermaids sang in their melodious voices and danced with charming movements.

Jiang Ming hid in the void about 100 miles away as he observed the manor in the distance. He speculated inwardly, ‘Mu Shuiyun and Bai Lang are both in the Primal Spirit Realm, I think the Chief Overseer of Bishui Sect is in the same realm as well. However, the Clan Leader of the Jiang clan should be a realm lower in the Nascent Soul Realm.’

He lamented that he did not know their names. Otherwise, he would have their information as soon as he wrote their names in the Human Path Records.

He knew he could not kill these people rashly. He had to think of a foolproof way to kill them. While he was lost in his thoughts, he used the Human Path Records to conjure up clones of himself. Since they were formed from vitality energy, they would not last long. Nevertheless, they were good enough to be used as tools.

Jiang Ming equipped all the clones with a top-grade spirit crystal, which he had obtained from killing Bai Yu and the others. Then, with Mu Shuiyun in the center, he sent his clones to the four cardinal directions and eight secondary intercardinal directions around her. Not only that, but he also sent his clones to the 72 star positions and the points of the 36 ley lines around her. The clones were all within 100 miles of Mu Shuiyun. After the clones arrived at their respective positions, they tossed their respective top-grade spirit crystals out in a specific direction.

With this, Jiang Ming completed the Ten Directions Heavenly Transformation Formation. The formation’s range covered the manor and the area within a radius of 100 miles. Then, he activated the Formation with his mana, turning the area in the Formation into a forbidden area and isolating it from the world.

This Formation was not very powerful, and it was mainly used to isolate and imprison. It suited Jiang Ming’s purpose very well at this moment.

As soon as the Formation was activated, the people in the manor became aware of it immediately.

Bai Lang roared, “Who is it? How dare you make a move against me?”

Bai Lang rushed into the sky as huge waves surged above him. The waves looked terrifying and endless.

At the same time, Mu Shuiyun, the Chief Overseer of the Bishui Sect, and the Clan Leader of the Jiang clan rose into the air as well. They brought out their Artifacts and activated their defensive special abilities to ensure their safety.

When they rose in the air, they saw a huge chessboard hovering in the sky. Lines crisscrossed above it, looking like connected stars. In the next moment, a huge pulling force surged out from the chessboard.

Bai Lang was shocked and frightened by the abrupt appearance of the pulling force. He unleashed his power, trying to resist, but it was futile. In just a short moment, he was pulled into the chessboard.

Following that, the other old men were pulled into the chessboard as well.

Mu Shuiyun, who was watching this, was terrified. She did not know what kind of Dao Vessel the chessboard was. The energy she used to resist the pulling force only managed to help for a few moments before she was pulled into the chessboard like the others.

Following that, all living things in the manor were pulled into the chessboard as well.

At this moment, Jiang Ming appeared in midair. His hand held the Golden Obsidian, which was suitable for a fight using only physical strength. Then, he allowed himself to be pulled into the chessboard as well.

…

Inside the chessboard.

The area was divided into a black region and white region. One represented the game master, and the other represented the opponents.

Mu Shuiyun and the other three men’s expressions were grim. They stood in front of the slaves and servants of the manor who were mostly from the sea clans.

Upon seeing Jiang Ming, Mu Shuiyun asked in confusion, “Who are you? Where are we?”

She had been shocked to discover she could not mobilize her mana and her Primal Spirit energy in this place. Moreover, her cultivation base had also been suppressed.

Bai Lang said, “This must be a Dao Vessel with an independent realm.”

As Bai Lang spoke, his head transformed into that of a white-scaled dragon’s head. It somewhat resembled a turtle. At the same time, claws grew from his fingers as a long tail grew out of his back. This form was the battle form of a white-scaled dragon.

When the transformation was complete, Bai Lang asked, “Who are you? Why are you targeting us?”

Jiang Ming replied, “I’m from the Qingyun Sect. No one knows about me since I’ve been cultivating in seclusion in the sect’s forbidden area. Mu Shuiyun, I can be considered your junior granduncle.”

Being a cautious person, Jiang Ming naturally did not reveal his true identity.

Jiang Ming smiled and continued to say, “I know you’re colluding with one of the sea clans. Your son has the blood of a scaled dragon so you must be partial toward the sea clans. The sea clans are restless and have been coming to the shores of the Eastern Region. They must be up to no good. I thought that by killing Mu Lei, you’d be able to sever your ties with the sea clans and come to your senses. However, it seems like I was wrong. You actually came to meet Bai Lang. It’s just as well. I’ll kill all of you tonight!”

He had heard someone calling out to the Clan Leader of the Jiang clan and the Chief Overseer of the Bishui Sect earlier. Hence, he called up the Human Path Records inwardly and mentally wrote their names on it.

Name: Jiang Feng

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Cultivation base: Nascent Soul Realm

Background: Clan Leader of the Jiang clan.

Relationship: -99

Innate talent: Eight stars

Status: The clan was on the wane so he was struggling to revive it. Alas, the members were not powerful enough so the clan was suppressed by the Feiyun Sect and Tianshui Sect. The clan’s chances of survival grew slimmer and slimmer with time. However, a few years ago, the elders of Bishui Sect persuaded him to ally himself with them. The Bishui Sect promised him cultivation resources and half of the Hai Province as long as he promised to assist them in annihilating the Feiyun Sect and Tianshui Sect. Despite learning of the sea clans and Bishui Sect’s intention to invade and conquer the Eastern Region, due to the promised rewards, he agreed to the Bishui Sect’s request. He was asked by the Chief Overseer of Bishui Sect to meet the Cave Master of the White Scaled Dragon Cave to discuss ways to annihilate the Tianshui Sect without provoking the Qingyun Sect. During the meeting, Bai Lang had requested them to look for his son’s murderer. Halfway through the meeting, Mu Shuiyun suddenly showed up. He was overjoyed when he discovered the relationship between Bai Lang and the former Holy Daughter of the Qingyun Sect.

After reading Jiang Fei’s information, Jiang Ming thought to himself, ‘As expected. Bishui Sect is colluding with the sea clans to invade and conquer the Eastern Region. With the resurgence of the devil sects, the conflicts with the Zhong Province’s Infinite Alchemy Pavilion, and the sea clans and Bishui Sect’s plot, the Eastern Region is in a mess…’

Jiang Ming shuddered when he thought about what the future held for the Eastern Region. He did not care about the relationship value at -99. After all, he was planning to kill Jiang Fei after this.

Swoosh!

He flipped to the next page of the Human Path Records.

Name: Hai Yan

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Cultivation base: Primal Spirit Realm

Background: Grand Elder of Bishui Sect

Relationship: -86

Innate talent: Nine Stars

Status: The Bishui Sect was located in the outer regions of the Submerged Dragon Continent. The sect was crowded out and struggled to survive. Through a series of coincidences, the sect secretly joined the Red Mountain Palace. Under the order of the Red Mountain Palace, the sect sent disciples to the Eastern Region to lay down their foundation and to investigate the situation of the forces in the Eastern Region. After leading his team here, he reached out to the Jiang clan, which had submitted to him years ago, and ordered them to annihilate the Feiyun Sect and bribed the Qingyun Sect. He plans to annihilate the Tianshui Sect next on his quest to conquer the Eastern Region. He had been delighted when he heard about the resurgence of the devil sects, and the attack the Infinite Alchemy Pavilion launched on the Qingyun Sect. During his meeting with Bai Lang today, they discussed reaching out to the experts from the devil sects. They plan to work together with the devil sects and divide the Eastern Region. With that, Bishui Sect will be able to expand and conquer Qing Province. When he first saw Mu Shuiyun from the Qingyun Sect earlier, he panicked and was about to strike. However, when he learned about her relationship with Bai Lang, he was delighted. With the former Holy Daughter of the Qingyun Sect on their side, it would be easier to carry out their plan.

Jiang Ming’s heart skipped a beat when he saw the information of the Chief Overseer, no, the Grand Elder of Bishui Sect. As it turned out, the main culprit, the one pulling the strings, was the Red Mountain Palace.

The Bishui Sect was unaware that Bai Lang had long sent his son to secretly investigate and contact the Yinmo Sect. It was likely that the devil sects and the Red Mountain Palace were already working together.

When Jiang Ming thought about the Yinmo Sect, Red Mountain Palace ,and the Submerged Dragon Continent’s plot, he gritted his teeth as killing intent surged from his body.

It took only a few seconds for Jiang Ming to read through the information. Outwardly, he had just finished speaking.

Upon hearing Jiang Ming’s words, Mu Shuiyun asked with bloodshot eyes, “You’re the one who killed my son?”

She disregarded the matter of Jiang Ming coming from the Qingyun Sect. She looked at him with eyes filled with rage as the desire to avenge her son rose in her heart. In the next moment, she lunged toward him as she cried out, “Go to hell, you bast*rd!”

Although she could not mobilize her mana, her physique was strong. When she punched out, the wind whistled in the wake of her fist.

Although Mu Shuiyun was fast and strong, Jiang Ming was faster and stronger.. He brought down the Golden Obsidian, cleaving her into two.
