Tang Jie tidied himself up and then stood up, beginning to casually saunter downward. The fierce Astral Winds seemed more like a backdrop at this point, making Tang Jie appear all the more elegant and relaxed.

With each stride, a transparent stairstep would appear in the sky, and Tang Jie descended like he was going down a flight of stairs.

He walked very slowly, his body exuding grace and confidence.

When he had descended three thousand feet, a comet-like figure appeared in the distance. It was none other than Zheng Liang swiftly flying along.

As Zheng Liang flew closer and closer, he noticed that someone was up ahead.

Although this man had his back to Zheng Liang so that he couldn’t be identified, Zheng Liang’s instinct for danger made him slow down and prepare for battle. At the same time, he attempted to fly around this man.

But to his shock, even though this man clearly wasn’t moving, no matter what direction he went in, that man would be there.

Zheng Liang was stunned, for this meant that this man had an extremely deep comprehension of the Dao of Space.

An existence who had comprehended the Dao of Space appearing in front of him was definitely not good. Zheng Liang instinctively thrust out his palm three times, sending out three powerful attacks that had the clouds churning and the winds howling. At the same time, his body began to blaze with golden light, one of Godhead Palace’s special protective arts.

Prioritizing survival over victory had always been the fighting style of Godhead Palace.

A light shone from the center of Zheng Liang’s forehead as he readied the golden body’s Divine Will.

Finally, he prepared a fire talisman in his hand so that he could call for rescue as soon as possible.

In this string of actions, Zheng Liang showed that he was both cautious and decisive.

Alas, the other party only needed to do one thing to make everything Zheng Liang had just done futile.

Tang Jie activated the Infinite Palace.

A resplendent palace emerged from his body, but this vast complex was much larger than before, immediately blotting out the sun with its appearance.

The moment the Infinite Palace appeared, back at Godhead Mountain, Jin Wuyu and Shi Wunian shuddered. “Oh no!”

The two of them immediately flew out of the mountain.

But no matter how fast they were, there was no way they could move faster than Tang Jie.

The splendor of the Infinite Palace enveloped Zheng Liang, and in that light, Zheng Liang felt like he was in the middle of a swamp, the countless threads of light rendering him immobile and even preventing him from using spell arts.

Upon realizing what art this was, he cried, “The Infinite Palace? Tang Jie! You’re Tang Jie!”

Tang Jie turned around and casually said, “In truth, I had an even better way to deal with you, which was turning into someone close to you and then ambushing you. But I’ve been studying a lot lately, and I’ve gradually realized that the world is only as big as one’s heart, and too much scheming can make one narrow-minded, so I decided on this way. Please forgive me.”

Zheng Liang didn’t know what there was to forgive, but when he saw that it was Tang Jie, his heart dropped to rock bottom.

He understood that Tang Jie’s revenge against Godhead Palace had finally begun.

But why now? And why him?

Zheng Liang didn’t understand.

Seemingly guessing at what Zheng Liang was thinking, Tang Jie said, “I’m not after you, but there’s something on you that I need.”

He flicked a finger, sending a blast of energy at the center of Zheng Liang’s forehead.

Zheng Liang cried out in horror, “NO!”

Plush! The bolt of energy punched a hole in his forehead.

Tang Jie dragged out the golden body’s Divine Will.

It wanted to flee, but Tang Jie’s palm became like a net, holding it fast—the Peaceful Abode Classic.

This classic was intended to protect the Divine Soul from annihilation, but it could also be used to imprison it.

If this were the true will of a Godhead, Tang Jie naturally wouldn’t be able to stop it, but it was only one ten-millionth of the Godhead’s will, which was no problem at all.

Tang Jie looked at the golden body’s Divine Will and suddenly laughed.

He opened his mouth and sucked the Divine Will into his body.

The moment he did, he felt an immense power filling him up.

Unlike other kinds of power, this was a mental power. Upon entering Tang Jie’s body, it threw his Sea of Cognition into disarray. This ten-millionth of the Godhead’s Divine Will had realized what was going to happen to it, so it had gone into a frenzy in Tang Jie’s mind, stirring up waves comparable to powerful psychic attacks.

If Tang Jie had tried to devour the Divine Will while not at Violet Palace, the backlash might have killed him. But now that his Divine Soul had substantialized, it was like a mountain, unaffected by the storms. Meanwhile, that Divine Will wore away at itself with each struggle, and with no place to draw power from, it only grew weaker and weaker.

After enduring that first wave, Tang Jie simply needed to slowly digest and absorb it.

Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted in the distance.

“Brat, you dare!”

This roar clearly came from very far away, but it exploded right in Tang Jie’s ear, shaking him down to his soul and causing him to throw up blood.

A figure strode through the air, wearing a golden robe and grasping a golden spear, exuding the aura of a veteran general.

The moment he appeared, he thrust his spear at Tang Jie.

It was just a simple thrust, but Tang Jie felt like it had become the only thing in the world, that there was simply no escaping it.

The Chaoswind Step was a complete joke in front of this spear. Only a spatial escape art gained through entering the Dao of Space would be able to evade this spear.

He could only take the blow directly.

Tang Jie mustered up all the power of the Infinite Palace.

One hundred and thirty years of tempering had made the Infinite Palace much stronger.

But in front of the golden-robed general’s spear, that majestic complex shattered and crumbled, the spear annihilating all in its path.

Unstoppable!

The Infinite Palace that even the Jewel Immortal Sovereign had needed eleven fingers to break was so easily torn apart that Tang Jie couldn’t help but be awed.

Was the gap between Violet Palace and Immortal Platform this big?

His old formulas were completely overturned.

Tang Jie suddenly understood that if there was a massive chasm between Deification and Infant Tending, then the gap between Soul Projection and Earth Immortal was an entire universe.

Tang Jie felt a helplessness and powerlessness, a sense that he would never be able to defeat such a foe.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew in.

It was a gentle and harmonious wind, quiet and nurturing.

But the moment this wind appeared, the spear froze, and at the same time, the wind whisked Tang Jie away.

Yes, Tang Jie was whisked off, and that spear he had thought impossible to avoid stabbed at empty space.

Even so, Tang Jie still felt like something had stabbed into his heart, planting a seed of immense trauma within him.

But then a clear stream flowed through his heart, washing away this trauma, and a voice sounded in his mind. “Guard your heart and don’t be intimidated by this aura.”

Tang Jie awoke with a start, realizing that the Cloud Ancestor had saved him.

Not only had he saved Tang Jie’s life, he had also cleaned up that mental weakness that Godhead Palace’s Earth Immortal had planted in his mind.

This was what made Earth Immortals so scary. Their physical bodies had become Immortal, and their souls had become Gods, making them God Immortals.

As God Immortals, not only could their every move overturn the seas and topple mountains, they could also seep into the soul, making their opponents think that they were no match and stripping them of any thought of resistance. This was why numbers became completely irrelevant when it came to Earth Immortals, for a single thought was enough to traumatize everyone, after which they could do as they pleased.

This was the first time Tang Jie was experiencing this terrifying aspect, and he now understood how scary it was to provoke such a being.

The only one who could save Tang Jie from an Earth Immortal was naturally another Earth Immortal.

As that gust of wind passed, the golden-robed general roared, “Yun Tianlan, you dare to break the pact!?”

The reply was an angry snort. “Ye Yun, it was clearly you who attacked first. I was just saving him, so I did nothing wrong.”

“But that brat stole the Divine Will of my Godhead Palace’s golden body! You should know of this object’s importance to Godhead Palace! That isn’t something he can touch!”

“So what?” The Cloud Ancestor’s voice drifted in from all directions. “He did not break the pact, charging into Godhead Palace and stealing the golden body. You can’t blame him if your people can’t protect their valuables. After all, wouldn’t that mean that the people of Godhead Palace could just bring the golden body’s Divine Will wherever they went to be immune to the attacks of other sects? At that point, the Divine Will Golden Body would truly be a perfect treasure.”

Ye Yun was stunned, but he quickly roared back, “Then he shouldn’t have seized the Divine Will. If he immediately hands it over, I can spare him.”

“He’s already swallowed it, so how can he give it back?” the Cloud Ancestor disdainfully said. “Ye Yun, when Tang Jie was ascending to Violet Palace, I saw that Godhead and Beast Refining were going to attack, but I did nothing. You understand that Tang Jie is the number one genius of my Basking Moon Sect, and even for such an individual, I did not break the pact. How can you go and break the pact over this meager portion of Divine Will? And it’s not like you haven’t lost the golden body’s Divine Will before. He Chong lost ten percent, and now you’ve lost another ten percent, so you still have eighty percent.”

“‘He Chong’?” Ye Yun shuddered upon hearing this name.

When He Chong went missing, Godhead Palace knew that it wouldn’t be getting back this Divine Will.

Jin Wuyu had even personally gone to apologize and seek punishment from Ye Yun and the ancestor statue, prostrating for an entire year without rest, food, or drink.

Now that Yun Tianlan had brought it up, Ye Yun knew that Tang Jie had to be involved in this matter.

Upon realizing that twenty percent of the Divine Will was gone just like that, he threw aside all apprehensions and furiously thrust his spear at Tang Jie.

He was going to kill this bastard!

But Yun Tianlan wasn’t going to let him succeed. A horsetail whisk appeared, its tens of thousands of hairs erupting forward and wrapping around the golden spear.

At the same time, a hand emerged from the clouds and slapped Tang Jie’s body, sending him far away. A voice said, “What are you looking at? Hurry up and get to work.”

Tang Jie took a reluctant look back. A battle between two Earth Immortals was not to be missed! Thus, he threw up a mouthful of blood, creating hundreds of Tang Jies who all went flying over to the battle, but to spectate rather than fight.

Meanwhile, Tang Jie himself flew in the direction of Godhead Palace.
