Yuan Zi obstructed all the powerhouses, which infuriated all of them greatly. However, Yuan Zi wasn’t their target, even though he frustrated them a lot.

They would not be able to obtain the Sky Wielding Crystal even if they killed Yuan Zi!

The Sky Wielding Crystal was in the hands of Luo Yunyang and would very likely be refined by Luo Yunyang if they continued to get tangled up with Yuan Zi.

They all wanted to catch up to Luo Yunyang and snatch the Sky Wielding Crystal back from him. However, none of them were willing to encounter Luo Yunyang, who had successfully refined the Sky Wielding Crystal.

After all, Luo Yunyang would become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate once he refined the Sky Wielding Crystal.

Thus, after hearing the roar, the Three-Headed Monkey turned into a streak of golden light and headed in the direction that Luo Yunyang was headed to chase him.

Other powerhouses also executed their techniques and followed suit to chase Luo Yunyang.

Some transformed into a glimmer, while others tore through the void to intercept Luo Yunyang. Some of them, such as the Nine-Headed Snake, executed a secret technique and disappeared into the void.

Although no one knew what technique the Nine-Headed Snake had executed, many of them felt that it would not be far away from Luo Yunyang after it disappeared in the void.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky glared at Yuan Zi sternly but did not say anything. Instead, he left eventually.

The other Heavenly Rulers also followed Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky.

As disciples of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor, they were extremely proud of their cultivation, but the skills and strength displayed by Luo Yunyang and the cultivation level of the other powerhouses made them realize that the possibility of them obtaining the supreme treasure would be slim if they acted alone.

Yuan Zi no longer held off these powerhouses. He just watched them leave.

“Yuan Zi, what shall we do next?” said the man with the golden metallic body, who had executed the Thousand Era Imperial Purposes.

Although it seemed like this man was on equal footing with Yuan Zi based on the way he addressed him, his tone was still respectful.

“Find a place and wait.” Yuan Zi mulled it over for a second before he replied with a smile.

“Wait? Aren’t we going to help Luo Yunyang? It will all be a wasted effort if the Sky Wielding Crystal is taken away by someone else!”

Yuan Zi shook his head and said, “We have already bought Luo Yunyang enough time. It would be useless to head over if he still has not secured the Sky Wielding Crystal by now.”

The man shook his head and said, “Alright, if you say so.”

“But is Luo Yunyang really worthy of our trust?”

The powerhouses standing beside Yuan Zi suddenly went quiet. Although all of them were supreme geniuses of their respective Great Eras, they were extremely proud.

Nevertheless, when it came to the Sky Wielding Crystal, they all found it extremely difficult to keep calm.

After all, this was the Sky Wielding Crystal.

Even they couldn’t guarantee that they wouldn’t be tempted if the Sky Wielding Crystal was in their hands.

There weren’t a lot of Sky Wielding Crystals, so obtaining one that would allow one’s cultivation to reach the Taiyi Yuan Venerate was a very attractive temptation.

Yuan Zi clapped his hands and said, “Although I would like to say that I trust Luo Yunyang, I know that you would all still be skeptical.”

Zong Shan did not speak but nodded his head.

Yuan Zi added, “You guys have to admit that this was the best option for us at the time.”

“Rather than allowing the foreign races to obtain the Sky Wielding Crystal, it was better for the Sky Wielding Crystal to be captured by the Human Race.”

Zong Shan nodded in agreement. “Therefore, we can’t blame you for this, regardless of whether Luo Yunyang keeps his word or not.”

After he said that, Zong Shan looked at Yuan Zi with a hint of doubt and asked, “Is what you said a while ago true? You would not have used the Sky Wielding Crystal even if you had obtained it?”

“It’s true!” Yuan Zi responded firmly as curious eyes began to look at him.

Although it was not the first time that Zong Shan and the rest had heard this from Yuan Zi’s lips, many people still doubted what he said.

After all, this was the Sky Wielding Crystal!

Luo Yunyang was like a bolt of lightning piercing the void. He had now transferred most of his attributes to his Power and Mind.

Naturally, all the attributes of the Chaotic Four-Origin Beast were also added to the remaining attributes of his body.

The additional Speed Attributes of the Chaotic Four-Origin Beast, on top of his own half-step Yuan Venerate Speed, meant that Luo Yunyang was not worried about others catching up to him.

Although he wanted to keep the Sky Wielding Crystal within his internal chaos universe, he realized that he had no way of doing it now after attempting it.

Not unless he refined the Sky Wielding Crystal.

Luo Yunyang could sense the thing within the Sky Wielding Crystal as he held it in his hand. It had turned out to be a Heavenly Great Path nomological law. A perfect Heavenly Great Path nomological law.

No wonder one could become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate by fusing with the Sky Wielding Crystal. A perfect Heavenly Great Path nomological law was actually within it.

Luo Yunyang himself wasn’t an inflexible thinker. While being pursued, he kept thinking about whether he should fuse with the Sky Wielding Crystal.

Although fusing with the Sky Wielding Crystal seemed like betraying Yuan Zi, great gains shouldn’t be stopped by a small mistake. Luo Yunyang could still find a reason to cover up his deed.

However, he chose not to in the end.

The reason he didn’t was because the attribute regulator in his mind started to resist when he tried to fuse with the Sky Wielding Crystal.

This was a very strong form of resistance.

The attribute regulator had been acting like a machine all these years and had never developed any consciousness even when changes had been made to Luo Yunyang’s state of mind.

However, the attribute regulator actually resisted when Luo Yunyang chose to fuse with the Sky Wielding Crystal and produced a very strong sensation.

Although the Sky Wielding Crystal was important, Luo Yunyang valued his attribute regulator more.

This was not just because the attribute regulator had followed him ever since he’d started to rise, but also because the attribute regulator had limitless potential. Luo Yunyang felt that he still had not fully used all the attribute regulator’s abilities.

Since he was not going to fuse with it, he would decide after meeting Yuan Zi!

After shaking off the powerhouses that were chasing him, Luo Yunyang entered the 36 Great Cosmoses of the Human Race. The scheme of the First Yuan Ancient Underworld Lord had failed, and the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor could return at any time. Thus, the territories of the Human Race had become a restricted zone for the powerhouses of foreign races.

After returning to the 36 Great Cosmoses, Luo Yunyang immediately found Yuan Zi. Before they could even speak, the voice of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor echoed in his ears. “Human Ruler, head over to Tianding Realm!”

The Human Race’s Divine Ancestor was looking for him!

Luo Yunyang mulled this over and understood right away that it was definitely related to the Sky Wielding Crystal he possessed. He still decided to meet the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor in Tianding Realm while pondering it all.

Although there was still time for him to fuse with the Sky Wielding Crystal, Luo Yunyang had a strong feeling that it would be better to leave the Sky Wielding Crystal as it was. After all, he was still unsure whether it was a blessing or a curse.

“Great! You did not fuse with the Sky Wielding Crystal!” Yuan Zi saw the Sky Wielding Crystal in Luo Yunyang’s hand and lamented.

Luo Yunyang hesitated for a moment before moving the Sky Wielding Crystal a few feet closer to Yuan Zi and saying, “The Divine Ancestor is looking for me. It might be because of the Sky Wielding Crystal, as we had an agreement before. Why don’t you make me an offer I can’t refuse? I’ll give you the Sky Wielding Crystal in exchange now.”

Yuan Zi hesitated for a second but eventually chucked and said, “Although the Sky Wielding Crystal is great, it is not something I’m after.”

“It can easily make you advance but it is still something external. It is akin to shackles that will make it difficult to move again after one puts them on.”

Yuan Zi actually considered the Sky Wielding Crystal shackles. Luo Yunyang eyed the man of the most brilliant Great Era, who even had Taiyi Yuan Venerates as his master and senior brothers. He felt as though this man must have known something.

“What are you after?” Luo Yunyang asked seriously.

“I naturally want to break through with my own ability!” Yuan Zi said in all seriousness. “Provided that you did keep your promise, I’ll tell you one more thing. Only a person’s own power truly belongs to them. Borrowed external powers have to be paid back in the end.”

Luo Yunyang, who was mulling over what Yuan Zi had said, deliberately replied in a lighter tone, “Are you saying this on purpose because you can’t beat me at obtaining this? You did not look so calm and indifferent when you were fighting for the Sky Wielding Crystal!”

“Believe it if you want. If you don’t, you can consider what I said rubbish!” Yuan Zi was still calm as he said, “However, I hope you don’t regret it in the end.”

Luo Yunyang looked back at Yuan Zi and said heavily, “Can someone really become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate just by relying on themselves?”

“Yes!” Yuan Zi answered firmly without any hesitation.

The two of them did not continue their conversation, as Luo Yunyang took a final glance at Yuan Zi before taking off toward the void.

Yuan Zi watched as Luo Yunyang left and sighed gently.

While he was watching Luo Yunyang leave, he felt someone behind him. Upon turning around, he saw Feng Feifei glittering in five lights and looking at him quietly.

“I just knew you wouldn’t die!” Feng Feifei’s beautiful eyes were fixed on Yuan Zi as she said faintly, “It’s been a while. How have you been?”
