“I understand now. It turns out that they planned to send the person with twin pupils into the space-travel distortion from the start, instead of using the environment of the jade lake to delay the pursuit,” someone exclaimed.

“The person with twin pupils is in trouble. The intense battle just now has already caused the coordinates of the jade lake to fluctuate. If they fall into it at this time, even the person with twin pupils will probably have to take a huge risk.”

“Although we can’t deny how powerful the person with twin pupils is, he might have been too careless. If this incident damages his foundation, his path to invincibility will be broken.”

Some people desperately hoped that the path to invincibility for the dual-pupils would be broken.

The battle between the two strong fighters had almost destroyed the dangerous jade lake. Their talent was envied by countless people.

One side could make use of a power that could usually be used only by those who were two levels higher than him. The other side had a body that was extremely strong and had the ability to move around freely in space.

Unexpectedly, the person with twin pupils, who everyone originally thought highly of, suddenly switched from offense to defense.

The person with twin pupils only had three choices. He could either forcefully break through the other party’s blockade to leave the space-travel distortion, or find a suitable coordinate to leave through the space-travel distortion, or as his last option, he could wait for the city ruler to rush over and save him in time.

For the first choice, the result was obvious from the moment the two sides started fighting. The person with twin pupils did not have the strength to suppress his opponent, unless he used the jade chains.

From this, it could be seen that it would not be easy for the person with twin pupils to rush out of the space-travel distortion. The other party would also risk his life to stop him from the outside world.

For the second and third choices, the risk in the space-travel distortion was unknown. They had already caused such a huge commotion earlier, causing him to take the risk of being targeted every second he stayed at a fixed location within it.

Although Li Tengfei’s talent was unprecedented, there were many terrifying existences in the space-travel distortion that could kill him. It was a place that was more dangerous than any restricted area or dangerous place in the abandoned world.

…

At the same time, in the city ruler’s residence in Heaven Suppressing City, the strange man and Li Zhentian were focused on the chess game.

The person with twin pupils had been sent into the space-travel distortion. Because the dangerous jade lake was originally filled with the aura of the space-travel distortion, it did not alert anyone.

The news was brought back by a general of the Heaven Suppressing Army, and it would take a while for it to arrive. It was not like the person with twin pupils revealing the natural law chains, and their unique aura would be sensed immediately.

“City Ruler Li, it seems that the twin pupils’ path to invincibility is not going as smoothly as expected.”

The strange man placed a white piece down. In the second round, the black and white pieces had changed sides. The ruler of the Heaven Suppressing City was the one using the black pieces. The two of them made a few moves, but the battle in the distance had not been resolved.

“It’s just a futile struggle. Don’t tell me you think that there’s really someone in the star condensation realm who can fight against the natural law chains? Even the strongest prodigy is far from being able to do so,” Li Zhentian said casually, then focused his attention on the chessboard.

“There’s still a tall and handsome man who hasn’t appeared yet. I think it’s still too early. Perhaps the person with twin pupils will suffer a loss this time,”

the strange man retorted, hoping to interfere with Li Zhentian’s strategy and win another round. He wanted Li Zhentian to lose twice in a row and completely suppress his momentum.

“Hehe! I think the so-called powerful helper is just an abandoned pawn. This Gao Shuai hasn’t appeared for a long time, so he’s probably long gone.”

Li Zhentian did not say explicitly that Gao Shuai had been defeated in the battle with Li Tengfei, but this was what he meant.

“Then we’ll have to wait and see.”

The topic changed, and the strange man continued, “By the way, City Ruler Li, the whereabouts of the Infinite Island Group is unclear. In the future, they won’t stay in south mountain range for a long time. Is it worth it to sacrifice so much to work with them?”

Now that he asked this, he was naturally trying to trick Li Zhentian into revealing something from his expression.

However, Li Zhentian only smiled and placed another piece.

“The factions behind the source ore shops have been monopolizing the trading of source ores over the years. They are no longer popular. It’s not that the Infinite Island Group has given us any huge benefits, but that I was forced to do so.”

“For example, if the Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop committed such a huge scam, if we don’t punish them and resolve the situation, will the Heaven Suppressing City be under the control of the source ore shops or the Li clan?”

The city ruler cleverly avoided a direct answer and pushed the blame to the destroyed Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop.

The strange man was not surprised by this answer. He made a move and continued, “It seems that City Ruler Li has a big plan. I wonder what will happen to the south mountain range after this.”

“Whether it’s a large city, a sect, or a faction from another galaxy that is involved, I wonder who will benefit in the end?”

These words implied something, but Li Zhentian remained calm and collected, as if he did not understand them. He continued to play his pieces.

As the actions of the factions related to the Infinite Island Group, such as in Heaven Suppressing City, exceeded the expectations of the world, some people began to suspect that the black tide had infiltrated the factions.

However, the black tide was a taboo among taboos. The current conflict involved the fight for the true dragon’s corpse, and also the source ores and the factions that had the most source ores.

…

On the battlefield at the jade lake, as Li Tengfei fell into the space-travel distortion, the three jade chains that were chasing after Chen Yiming stopped in midair, as if there was something interfering with them.

The sky changed color again, and fist shadows filled the sky. It was as if a meteor had fallen to the planet from space, and a rumbling sound shook the ground. It was a scene from doomsday.

In the middle, Li Tengfei’s twin pupils shone with an endless divine light. Stars continuously materialized to resist the fist shadows that looked like falling stars.

At this moment, something unexpected happened in the space-travel distortion.

In the distorted space, long-haired ghosts charged out, crying and wailing, bringing with them a shocking killing intent. Their numbers increased again and again.

It could be seen that in the blink of an eye, the environment around the person with twin pupils had become like hell. He was faced with enemies from both sides, and it was difficult for him to advance or retreat.

When the people watching from afar saw this, their hearts tightened and they held their breaths. They could not help but take a few steps back in horror.

“At this time, could the jade lake be connected to a demon world through the space-travel distortion? That’s not a good thing.”

“Let’s wait and see. Perhaps it’s just some ordinary ghosts. A true demon is an existence on the same level as a god. However, this person with twin pupils is definitely unlucky.”

The scene in front of them immediately caused a commotion. Many people communicated in low voices. Seeing the ghosts continuously appearing in the distorted space, they could not help but feel their scalps tingle.

Compared to the gods of most species, the demons were naturally more adapted to the environment of the space-travel distortion. In the history of the abandoned world, there had been many demon invasions, and each time, a calamity had occurred.

“Tsk tsk tsk!”

A malicious spirit with bloodshot eyes pounced at Li Tengfei from the air. Its aura fluctuated between strong and weak, making it impossible to determine its true strength.

“Boom!”

Li Tengfei snorted coldly. The power of the twin pupils continued to fight back against Chen Yiming. He kicked horizontally at the malicious spirit’s black claws, causing a black aura to explode. The malicious spirit was killed and disappeared.

Then, more and more ghosts charged out one after another, but they were all killed by him.

“He still has some strength left.”

Many of the gods watching the battle from afar were shocked by the tenacity of the person with twin pupils.

They had thought that the person with twin pupils would retreat for the time being, and that there was no need to continue the stalemate at the entrance of the space-travel distortion in the jade lake. They did not expect that he would not take a single step back and was preparing to rush out by force.

“It should be about time.”

Chen Yiming had dragged things out to buy time for Gao Shuai to send the team from the Seven Stars Source Ore Workshop to Heaven Suppressing City to find the city ruler’s treasure vault.

Otherwise, he would have directly transformed into a giant and completely sent the person with twin pupils into the space-travel distortion. He would not have left the other party with any strength to deal with the malicious spirit.

“Giant transformation!”

Chen Yiming suddenly turned into a giant in front of everyone.

In front of the giant, the jade lake became like a small lake. It was no longer wide and boundless. The surrounding mountains, even if they were comparable to ordinary planets, were only about the same height as the giant.

This was the strongest combat strength formed by the Undying Body talent and the Giant Talent. Even Chen Yiming didn’t know how strong his body was. He only knew that it was very difficult to kill him.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

In the next moment, the battlefield at the jade lake completely exploded. The raging power completely decimated everything. The person with twin pupils did not even make a sound, and even the ghosts that kept appearing from the space-travel distortion had completely disappeared.

Then, the giant’s figure disappeared, and so did the jade lake. A huge spatial rift had appeared there.

Soon, although the battlefield had calmed down, the power of distortion that surged out of the space-travel distortion enveloped everything. Unless someone dared to go in personally, they would not be able to see through the situation inside.

A general from the Heaven Suppressing Army walked out of the crowd and risked his life to charge into the area enveloped by the power of distortion.

However, he did not return for a long time. It was unknown if he was lost in the space-travel distortion or if he was still searching for the person with twin pupils.

“Uh… How terrifying.” Everyone was shocked and could not calm down for a long time. They looked in disbelief at the spot where the jade lake had disappeared from.

This was terrifying. The opponent was a person with twin pupils, but what kind of terrifying power was this!

A small number of legends about the giants had also spread in the Hidden Dragon Galaxy. Some people speculated that humans were a branch of their bloodline that had degenerated for many generations. Of course, this was only speculation and there was no concrete evidence.

However, true pure-blooded giants were definitely at the level of the True Dragon and Phoenix. There were even rumors that they could tear apart the True Dragon and feast on the True Phoenix.

At the thought of this, some people suspected that Gao Shuai might know some deeper secrets.

Otherwise, his recent actions had disproved the 10% success rate of his prophecies.

…

On a stone bridge in a stream outside Heaven Suppressing City, Chen Yiming brought the silver-winged woman, Gao Shuai, his butler, and the bull-headed bodyguards over.

Of course, Chen Yiming had considered bringing the silver-winged woman along. He didn’t have any spatial items, so if there were too many things in the treasure vault, it would be best if he had another person with him to help him carry them out.

Gao Shuai had brought even more people along. It was obvious that they had similar thoughts. In reality, spatial items were not omnipotent. They could not be used on everything.

“It’s not in the Heaven Suppressing City?” Chen Yiming asked casually as he looked in the direction of the city.

“The one in Heaven Suppressing City is a fake. Although there are some real treasures there, most of them are fakes.” Gao Shuai nodded.

It did not take Gao Shuai long to determine the true location of the city ruler’s treasure vault and the appropriate place to enter without causing too much of a commotion.

In reality, the reason why the city ruler had been guarding the city was because a strange man of the same level had come to visit. It was also because after the incident at the source ore shops shops, he needed to control the situation.

The source ores from the South Palace Source Ore Workshop were now in the hands of the city ruler, which was known to all the gods.

Among the ordinary people who gambled on the source ores, some still believed the announcement from the city ruler’s residence and believed that this matter had nothing to do with them.

The silver-winged woman hugged one of Chen Yiming’s arms to her chest with a smile on her face.

Because she had been paying attention to the battle at the jade lake from afar, she naturally noticed the towering giant figure. His opponent was Li Tengfei, who had suppressed a group of geniuses. However, he had actually been suppressed just like that.

Although she did not see it clearly, it was enough to know the outcome. No matter the reason, the result was that Li Tengfei had been defeated, and his fate was unknown.

Seeing this, Gao Shuai felt terrible.

Goddesses like the silver-winged woman had never liked him. It was not that Gao Shuai was not recognized, but the 10% success rate of the prophecies had made things harder for him.

In fact, other than the core members of the Gao clan, even the women of the Gao clan kept a respectful distance from Gao Shuai.

Firstly, one had to take uncontrollable risks to get close to Gao Shuai. Secondly, Gao Shuai’s cultivation level was relatively low, and he had yet to break through to the level of a god, so he felt even more insecure.

A breeze blew past, and there was no one around.

The group waited quietly for the city ruler to receive the news that the person with twin pupils was trapped in space-travel distortion and go to the rescue.

If Li Zhentian wasn’t forced to leave, Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai wouldn’t dare to do anything under his nose. That would have been a futile effort. They would have been captured before they could even open the treasure vault.

Not long after.

In Heaven Suppressing City, a flame soared into the sky.

The netherworld ghost flames that seemed to have come from hell ignited the sky, causing the space to distort. A destructive aura surged over, and everyone’s hearts sank.

It was obvious that the city ruler of Heaven Suppressing City, an existence who could build a city outside the forbidden death zone and had established himself for a long time, was angry.

Then, the word “kill” echoed in the world appeared above Heaven Suppressing City and appeared in the air like a natural law chain.

The invisible aura was so sharp that even from a distance, they still felt that their bodies were about to be pierced through, and they did not dare to look at it directly with their naked eyes. At this moment, countless people’s eyes had been destroyed.

It had to be known that the word “kill” was not targeted to those who just looked over in curiosity. One could tell how powerful the city ruler was.

Chen Yiming frowned. He could sense that the word “kill” was looking for him. To be precise, the city ruler had used some method to find his general location.

Seeing this, Gao Shuai couldn’t help but laugh. “In terms of prophecy, this city ruler is nothing compared to me. How dare he show off in front of me?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the word “kill” gradually disappeared, and the flames in the sky gradually disappeared.

Soon, the Heaven Suppressing City calmed down again. Li Zhentian had already rushed to the jade lake.
