Elder Ma nodded and said, "Indeed, each world's situation differs and cannot be generalized. As for our Xuantian, the Heavenly Court is the supreme existence, ruling over numerous Immortal Domains, omnipresent."

Fang Zhixing squinted and said, "The master of the Heavenly Court is Emperor Xuantian, isn't that right?"

Elder Ma quickly replied, "Of course, what's there to hesitate about?"

Fang Zhixing pressed further, "Have you ever met Emperor Xuantian?"

Elder Ma shook his head and said, "I don't have the qualifications to meet Emperor Xuantian. To be honest, in the entire Mu Chen Immortal Sect, not to mention meeting Emperor Xuantian, there are very few who have even been to the Heavenly Court."

At this point, he waved his hand and said, "That's enough about that, let's return to the main topic."

Fang Zhixing immediately smiled obsequiously and said, "Right, right, you wanted to tell me why Xia Guanxing rebelled?"

Elder Ma mumbled an agreement and explained carefully, "This matter actually involves a struggle for Qi fortune."

Fang Zhixing became alert and responded, "I've heard people say that Qi fortune is related to population, the more people, the stronger the Qi fortune."

Elder Ma laughed and said, "That's not entirely incorrect, but it doesn't hit the mark.

Qi fortune is something elusive and intangible, yet it truly exists and can affect every person and even every creature.

The most important thing is that the total amount of Qi fortune within a world is constant, more here means less there."

Fang Zhixing's expression changed, frowning, as he said, "So, the struggle for Qi fortune is essentially each Immortal Domain vying for the Qi fortune within Xuantian?"

Elder Ma nodded and sighed, "The struggle for Qi fortune has a long history. Whoever has strong Qi fortune need not fear heavenly tribulations.

Similarly, if the amount of Qi fortune within an Immortal Domain is particularly large, the frequency of heavenly tribulations will greatly decrease, making it naturally easier for everyone to advance in cultivation."

Fang Zhixing quickly understood, clicking his tongue in amazement, "When Xia Guanxing leaves the Mu Chen Immortal Domain, he'll take some Qi fortune with him, right?"

Elder Ma laughed and said, "Xia Guanxing is a person with extraordinary talent and deep fortune; from the time he was born until now, without going through a single reincarnation, he has cultivated to the Fourth Grade Realm, founding the Stargazing Sword Sect.

Hmph, it's obvious that Xia Guanxing has an exceptionally strong Qi fortune, qualifying him to be called the Child of Destiny! Such a person absolutely cannot be allowed to leave."

Before his words finished, a sudden flash of light appeared on the opposite side of Heavenly Fall, like a cold arrow speeding towards them.

Elder Ma's eyes widened, and a sinister smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

Before long, the light flew beneath the Phantom Spirit Fortress and halted, revealing a figure in white.

Fang Zhixing focused his gaze and discovered the white-clad figure was a middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, possessing a magnificent bearing, with a sharp aura hidden beneath his cold demeanor.

"Xia Guanxing, long time no see." Elder Ma shouted loudly.

Xia Guanxing raised his head, his eyes staring directly at Elder Ma, and said coldly, "Your Mu Chen Immortal Sect really is like lingering spirits."

Elder Ma said with cold sarcasm, "Mu Chen Immortal Sect has not been unkind to you, giving you Luck Talismans, immortal treasures, aiding your cultivation, even inviting you numerous times to join the Heavenly Court, yet it turns out you're an ingrate."

Xia Guanxing scoffed and said in a frosty voice, "I have always respected Mu Chen Immortal Sect, grateful beyond words. If it weren't for discovering that secret, I would never have..."

"Silence!"

Elder Ma erupted in anger, his face turning as gloomy as a ghost, roaring, "Ingrate, I'm giving you one last chance, return to your Stargazing Sword Sect immediately, or don't blame me for being ruthless."

Xia Guanxing took a deep breath and said, "Do you think you can keep me here all by yourself?"

Elder Ma chuckled coldly, "You are a Fourth Grade Mid Stage, I am a Fourth Grade Late Stage, who is stronger? Besides, before you arrived here, you went through several fierce battles, already at the end of your strength."

Upon hearing this, Xia Guanxing scoffed disdainfully and said coldly, "Have you forgotten that I am a Sword Immortal, invincible at the same level? Even a Fourth Grade Perfection Golden Immortal wouldn't dare say they are sure to win against me, let alone you!"

Elder Ma instantly flew into a rage, stepping out swiftly, rushing towards Xia Guanxing, and crushing a Luck Talisman in his hand.

Xia Guanxing also immediately crushed a Luck Talisman.

The two were then able to launch full attacks.

Elder Ma clapped his storage bag, and out of thin air appeared a mark in his hand, which he immediately offered up!

Fourth Grade Merit Immortal Treasure: Vassal King's Seal!

On the mark, countless mountains and rivers, billions of people, and a vast army were carved.

The Vassal King's Seal gleamed brightly, manifesting a vast panorama of mountains and rivers, suddenly transforming into a meteor that shot out.

Soon after, the Vassal King's Seal grew bigger against the wind, becoming as large as a mountain, crashing down.

Xia Guanxing remained unfazed, with a wave of his hand, an Immortal Sword flew into the air, wrapped in brilliant sword aura, with an incredibly grand momentum.

Boom!

The Immortal Sword struck against the Vassal King's Seal; their sizes were disproportionate, like a needle stabbing into Mount Tai.

But!

A loud boom!

The Immortal Sword deeply thrust into the Vassal King's Seal, drilling a large hole, with fragments flying off.

The Vassal King's Seal shook violently, with cracks appearing on the surface, and its forward momentum came to a halt.

Elder Ma's breath stagnated, revealing a pained expression, then he flipped his hand, took out a small black flag, and threw it skyward.

The small black flag spun rapidly, quickly enlarging, covering the sky, everything beneath it turned black.

Xia Guanxing frowned, the surrounding suddenly became pitch-black, obscuring his vision, and his Divine Soul Perception blurred.

But he merely sneered, and in an instant, three Immortal Swords flew out, circling around him like three suns.

The sword light flashed brightly, dispelling the darkness.

The black flag trembled unceasingly, seemingly unable to suppress those three Immortal Swords.

Elder Ma's expression was ferocious, biting his tongue, he spat a mouthful of Essence Blood onto the black flag.

Instantly, the black flag stabilized, standing firm.

Under the black flag, the darkness grew even denser.

The brilliance of the three Immortal Swords was compressed and no longer as defiant as before.

Xia Guanxing witnessed this, a hint of seriousness flashed between his brows.

At this moment, he couldn't see Elder Ma, but Elder Ma could clearly see him.

Elder Ma smiled triumphantly, spreading his arms, and two hefty broad knives appeared in his hands, resembling pig-slaughtering knives.

"Xia Guanxing, given the chance you are useless, it seems you are destined to die by my hands."

Elder Ma's face twisted with grimness, he shot out like a bolt, swinging the two pig-slaughtering knives in a cross pattern, aiming a waist-level chop.

Xia Guanxing carefully observed the surroundings, suddenly noticing the sword light of the left Immortal Sword trembling.

In that instant, a large sword appeared between Xia Guanxing's hands, he gripped it tightly, and without hesitation, chopped to the left.

Bang!

The sound of metal clashing resounded, shaking the heavens and earth, accompanied by dazzling sparks flying!

The large sword struck between the crossed two knives!

Elder Ma's vague silhouette was immediately exposed, a look of astonishment filled his face.

Xia Guanxing regained his breath, immediately raised the large sword, and began madly chopping and cutting.

Clang, clang, clang~

In a moment, the large sword and double knives fiercely clashed thousands upon thousands of times, each fragmenting, showing gaps.

As they fought, they constantly descended, entering beneath the Heavenly Fall, as if sinking into the depths of the sea.

Witnessing this scene!

Fang Zhixing opened his Admirable Golden Eyes, surveyed the surroundings, and confirmed no one was watching, then suddenly unfurled the Free Blood Wings, swooped down, and merged into the endless darkness.

Xia Guanxing and Elder Ma frantically clashed with swords, stalemating, for a moment neither could outdo the other.

However, Xia Guanxing was indeed exhausted, quickly showing fatigue, losing momentum, and gradually falling behind.

Elder Ma had anticipated this result for a long time, assured of victory, his killing intent surged.

"Xia Guanxing, stop struggling, you will surely die today!" Elder Ma sneered coldly, a cluster of chilling light condensed at his brow, suddenly shooting out.

The chilling light transformed into an invisible shockwave, solidly striking Xia Guanxing.

"Ugh~"

Xia Guanxing's defenses were instantly broken, he spat a mouthful of blood, his body flew backward, and even the large sword flew out of his hand.

Elder Ma was overjoyed, chasing victory, immediately rushing up to deliver the finishing blow.

But Xia Guanxing suddenly lifted his head, unexpectedly spitting out a mouthful of blood, the blood coalesced into a small sword, and shot out explosively.

Pffft~

Elder Ma looked down at his left shoulder, now with a Blood Hole, blood gushing out...
