History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

  Having suffered a huge blow to its vitality, the Dim Darkness Sect too could only retreat and stay on the defensive. Thus, the Phoenix Bearing Region had really been pretty much ungoverned recently.

  The small and medium scale powers who were based here could only temporarily observe things.

  After having arrived, Yan Zhaoge met with no one as he simply hurried to that wound of the sky through which he had come to the World beyond Worlds at his greatest possible speed.

  The wound of the sky did not exist all the time. After confirming its approximate position, Yan Zhaoge controlled the Northern Ocean Clone in sweeping through space.

  As the Northern Ocean Clone who had already refined his acupoints to see Divinity shook the already unstable space, a crevice was soon gradually in the midst of being ripped open there.

  It was not ordinary darkness that existed within the crevice. Instead, it was completely bright within as the sonorous voice of the grand dao too seemed to be resounding.

  Yan Zhaoge observed that wound of the sky for a long time before throwing the jade pendant in his hand and the paper fan of sturdy divine wood over to the Northern Ocean Clone.

  Receiving the jade pendant, the Northern Ocean Clone immediately strode towards the wound of the sky.

  The Northern Ocean Clone who had already attained the Seeing Divinity stage had the ability to traverse the wound of the sky normally without having to rely on any external objects.

  Thus, he would be able to descend and search for the Floating Gate World without depleting the power of the fan at all.

  If he managed to find his Grand Master when the time came, he would let Yuan Zhengfeng make a decision on his own on whether to borrow the power of the paper fan to first come directly to the World beyond Worlds or to rely on Yan Zhaoge’s marker to return to the Eight Extremities World.

  With the preparations sufficient, all that mattered was simply what Yuan Zhengfeng’s decision was.

  In the vicinity of the wound of the sky, the Northern Ocean Clone’s heart suddenly jolted slightly as he felt like he was being probed by someone.

  Yet, focusing and carefully sensing his surroundings, everything seemed perfectly normal.

  Yan Zhaoge’s gaze scanned the surroundings. Still, he could see nothing that was abnormal.

  “Was I being too sensitive?” Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes, releasing his spiritual senses as he carefully felt the world all around him.

  After hesitating slightly for a moment, the Northern Ocean Clone still strode towards the wound of the sky in the end

  ……

  A distance away, distorted light concealed the image of a few figures beneath a fabricated illusion.

  One of them was frowning, “Even with mother personally making a move, he nearly discovered it?”

  The person who had spoken was precisely the son of Kang Ping and Madame Kang, Kang Jinyuan.

  Beside him stood a graceful, refined middle-aged woman, this naturally being Madame Kang. Kang Maosheng was there as well.

  Madame Kang said in a heavy tone, “We have long known that this person is extraordinary. It is not all that surprising a thing.”

  Kang Maosheng said slowly, “The rumours are true that he indeed comes from the lower worlds. Yet, we still cannot know-how exactly is he related to the Exalted Solar Luminary?”

  The Grand Xuan Dynasty was currently keeping a low profile, not daring to be too ostentatious lest they anger the Southeastern Exalt further.

  Still, facing Yan Zhaoge who had caused their predicament, those of the Grand Xuan Dynasty would naturally all hate him to the core.

  At the same time that they hated Yan Zhaoge, they also felt curious about the background of this young man who had suddenly sprung out of nowhere, why he was able to possess such methods that completely surpassed their expectations.

  Due to the news spread by the Radiant Light Sect initially, some things about Yan Zhaoge were now widely known.

  Bearing a disbelieving attitude, everyone had begun verifying it.

  Madame Kang and her sons had covertly come to the Phoenix Bearing Region with none the wiser. Working through various rumours, they had gradually found where Yan Zhaoge had first appeared.

  It was just that unexpectedly, Yan Zhaoge himself too had actually returned to the Phoenix Bearing Region now.

  Madame Kang pondered even as she said, “There is a wound of the sky here. From the looks of it, he intends to leave the World beyond Worlds? I wonder where it is that he wants to go. Is he returning to his original world, or is he planning to go elsewhere?”

  Kang Jinyuan lowered his head, not daring to look in Yan Zhaoge’s direction.

  While he had long since known how remarkable Yan Zhaoge was, he had not thought that even with his mother having personally concealed their whereabouts, he still needed to be cautious and wary.

  Just now, it was his gaze that Yan Zhaoge seemed to have detected, this thus having led to a telling off from his mother.

  This caused Kang Jinyuan to feel stifled, “Mother, while that clone of his has unexpectedly reached the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm, the early Seeing Divinity stage, it is impossible for him to be your opponent. Can’t you just directly act and capture him?”

  Madame Kang glanced dissatisfiedly at him, “When will you stop being so rash? First not speaking of being cautious regarding the Southeastern Exalt’s thoughts, this Yan Zhaoge has a high-grade Sacred Artifact, the Extreme Yang Seal. How would he be so easy to capture?”

  Kang Jinyuan hatefully lowered his head. Seeing this, Madame Kang sighed inwardly as she turned over to look at the wound of the sky. She saw that the Northern Ocean Clone had already entered it.

  Yan Zhaoge himself remained by the wound of the sky, quietly watching it.

  Now, the wound of the sky suddenly trembled intensely with light even overflowing greatly from it.

  Seeing this, Yan Zhaoge raised his brows, seemingly taken aback.

  This sudden change in the situation was out of Madame Kang’s predictions as well. Her expression changed as she stared unblinkingly at the wound of the sky.

  Standing outside of the wound of the sky, Yan Zhaoge quietly looked at the light being emitted from the spatial crevice before him.

  While his gaze appeared focused, his attention was actually on the surroundings as he carefully observed every single, slight motion occurring in his surroundings.

  Whether it was Yan Zhaoge who had Transcended Mortality and entered Sainthood or the Northern Ocean Clone who had stepped into the Seeing Divinity stage, both their spiritual senses were not to be underestimated.

  This was especially so with Yan Zhaoge cultivating in the Peerless Heavenly Scripture which boosted his sensory abilities yet further.

  He had sensed something a while ago which had then disappeared in a flash.

  Yan Zhaoge did not believe that it could have been a hallucination on his part.

  This being so, only one possibility remained. There was someone who was attempting to interfere with his sensing of the world around him.

  The better the other side’s concealment, the more dangerous the situation should be, as this entailed that the other party possessed a higher cultivation base with greater strength. It was because of this that even his sensory abilities had correspondingly been affected.

  “The person I observed at the start seemed to hate me, think of me as an enemy and want to kill me extremely greatly. It was because of that that I detected him so easily.”

  While Yan Zhaoge’s expression did not change, thoughts rapidly flashed through his mind, “It must be someone who has interacted with me and has clear enmity with me. Therefore, it cannot be those of the Southeastern Exalt’s lineage, the North Sea Sword Pavilion, Copper Men Island or the Dim Darkness Sect.”


  “They should be of the Southern Exalt’s lineage, from the Radiant Sect or the Grand Xuan Dynasty.”

  “Being able to obscure my senses, it proves that their strength is not weak. Yet, they did not attack immediately. Either they are not fully confident of taking me down or they are scheming something, wanting to observe my actions.”

  Yan Zhaoge liked taking the initiative. Therefore, he did not leave just like this, instead still getting the Northern Ocean Clone to enter the wound of the sky.

  It was just that after entering that spatial crevice, the Northern Ocean Clone forcibly resisted the pressure of the power of dimensions, not venturing deeper within.

  Instead, remaining close to the wound of the sky, the Northern Ocean Clone suddenly punched.

  Beneath his great might, the wound of the sky instantly shook.

  The abnormality with the wound of the sky as seen by Madame Kang’s group was actually an illusion created by Yan Zhaoge.

  Looking at the wound of the sky where radiance was overflowing, Yan Zhaoge appeared taken aback on the outside, yet was secretly scrutinising his surroundings even more thoroughly in secret.

  While Kang Jinyuan was rather temperamental, Madame Kang could still keep him patient as they did not make any rash moves.

  Still, Yan Zhaoge abruptly felt something now.

  He involuntarily looked into the distance where immeasurable radiance suddenly flickered, enveloping much of the space in the vicinity as it rapidly approached the wound of the sky.

  “This concept? Someone of the Radiant Light Sect?” Yan Zhaoge could not help but frown, “It shouldn’t be them that I sensed earlier. This being so, there must be two groups of enemies here.”

  Madame Kang and her sons similarly noticed the approaching radiance in the distance.

  Without the slightest hesitation, Madame Kang retracted her aura, concealing herself more deeply alongside Kang Maosheng and Kang Jinyuan.

  From this distance, she was already able to feel that the incoming group was hostile, possessing an expert who was no inferior to her.

  Madame Kang did not fear them. Still, choosing to conceal their traces and being a waiting oriole who watched the mantis chasing the cicada was evidently more beneficial to her now.

  Infinite radiance quickly enveloped the heavens and the earth, enveloping the entire Phoenix Bearing Region. A few people shot through the horizon, speedily nearing the wound of the sky.

  The person at their head was a white-haired old woman who wore white robes, a stern expression on her face.

  She carried a round mirror on which scenes of radiance were constantly flickering and changing.

  This woman who seemed old was actually one of the Radiant Light Sect’s bigwigs, the Head of the Illusory Light Hall Tan Jin. She was a fifth level Martial Saint of the mid Seeing Divinity stage.

  Beside her were several other Radiant Light Sect experts.

  They had hurried here in order to assist their Chief Luo Zhiyuan and the others as they returned to the World beyond Worlds.

  Following the collapse of the Dim Radiant Mausoleum, Luo Zhiyuan’s group had been trapped by a great tide of the chaotic flows of space.

  Without the help of the Dim Radiant Wheels, even Luo Zhiyuan who was at the peak of the Seeing Divinity stage would find escaping within a short period of time as hard as ascending the heavens.

  Still, the Radiant Light Sect had not departed on their quest wholly without preparations.

  Recently, while Luo Zhiyuan’s group still remained trapped by the chaotic flows of space, they had successfully established contact with the Radiant Light Sect’s martial practitioners who remained in the World beyond Worlds. They wanted to work together in concert with them, directly returning to the World beyond Worlds.

  Yet, they would have to use the wound of the sky here in the Phoenix Bearing Region.

  While there was still the wound of the sky that led to the Eight Extremities World within the territory of the Radiant Light Sect, with space and time being chaotic within, that place was unusable. Tan Jin, Luo Zhiyuan and the others could only feel helpless regarding this.

  Tan Jin could only lead some people in rushing over to the Phoenix Bearing Region. Fortunately, both the Grand Xuan Dynasty and the Dim Darkness Sect were currently in no state to watch over it as the place was left completely unguarded.

  The Radiant Light Sect martial practitioners should not be interrupted as they rushed over to set up a ritual there.

  Yet, just having arrived at the Phoenix Bearing Region, however, they discovered that Yan Zhaoge was actually right there.

  Now, it was like one’s eyes being exceptionally bloodshot at the unexpected sight of their enemy.

  Whether it was due to their past enmity or because Yan Zhaoge just happened to be blocking their way to the wound of the sky, Tan Jin and the others were momentarily taken aback before they all rushed towards Yan Zhaoge in unison!

  “There is still another group of enemies that is concealed someplace unknown, observing this in secret as they wait for a chance…Yan Zhaoge rolled his eyes, “I came here to look for my kin this time, also not having come to deal with you. Must you really get enough people to fill up a few mahjong tables to surround me like this?”

  After pondering for a moment, Yan Zhaoge suddenly turned, rushing into the wound of the sky!

  As those of the Radiant Light Sect neared, before they could make their next move, the wound of the sky which had already been showing abnormal signs initially now shook even more intensely.

  Entering the wound of the sky, Yan Zhaoge instantly experienced the powerful distortive force that seemed almost able to tear him to shreds.

  Within the Myriad Dragon Palace that was miniaturised and swept along by his true essence, Feng Yunsheng, Ah Hu and Xiao Ai could feel it the most distinctly.

  Yan Zhaoge shook his head, retrieving the paper fan of sturdy divine wood from the Northern Ocean Clone and protecting them all with it.

  He and the Northern Ocean Clone stayed near the entrance of the wound of the sky. He also controlled the Northern Ocean Clone who remained within the wound of the sky to cause the surrounding area to quake even further.

  The Northern Ocean Clone punched out with his left fist, seemingly drawing something in mid-air with his right.

  Numerous complex, profound runes appeared simultaneously, countless spirit patterns all stacking up upon one another to form an incomparably profound formation.

  Affected by the formation, the spatial crevice which flickered with radiance actually began expanding further.

  It was as though a wound was being ripped larger and larger.

  The area near it still shone brightly with radiance. Yet, within the crevice existed an entity like a black hole which emitted immense suction force.

  Taken completely unawares, even Tan Jin who was a longtime expert of the fifth level of the Martial Saint realm was instantly sucked in place by the black hole.

  The wound of the sky resembled the maws of a fierce, savage beast at this moment which opened wide, frenziedly devouring all the Radiant Light Sect martial practitioners who were in the vicinity.

  Tan Jin and the others unceasingly worked hard to stabilise themselves, yet discovered that their group had already missed Yan Zhaoge.

  They of the Radiant Light Sect were left enraged to the point of smoke rising from their orifices.

  Yan Zhaoge and the Northern Ocean Clone were clearly still close to the spatial crevice where radiance currently enveloped the surrounding area.

  HSSB734: On the same boat

  A change now occurred with the original wound of the sky.

  Radiance still shone brightly near it, the overlapping power of dimensions distorting and intersecting as it exerted immense pressure even as it created a relatively stable zone.

  The stability and equilibrium here was extremely fragile, having been temporarily created by the non
-stop quaking of the area.

  In the central zone of the spatial crevice, an existence that resembled a black hole existed that directly led to the chaotic flows of space.

  Yan Zhaoge and the Northern Ocean Clone could remain somewhat safe within the folded region of space they were currently in. Yet, Tan Jin and the others were swept towards the turbulent currents.

  The Radiant Light Sect martial practitioners who noticed this were all feeling greatly panicked as they hurriedly tried to stabilise themselves.

  “We already knew that this fella has strange methods that are out of the ordinary. Despite all our cautiousness, we still fell to his tricks in the end!” Even as Tan Jin and the others felt despondent, they also felt their hairs rise on end, “How could this person from the lower worlds possess such shocking methods that seem to have no end to them?”

  While they were trapped within the chaotic flows of space due to a moment’s inattention, Tan Jin’s group still swiftly reacted as they worked hard to stabilise themselves.

  The Radiant Light Sect martial practitioners who had come here all had rather high cultivation bases. With their preparedness, these turbulent currents of spacetime swept along by the Northern Ocean Clone would not be able to restrict them so easily.

  Even as Yan Zhaoge calmly observed this scene, more than half his attention remained outside of the wound of the sky.

  Indeed, radiance flickered in the distance as three streaks of sword-light that resembled the flowing of time flew over in this direction.

  The first was a refined, graceful woman. It was precisely Madame Kang.

  Behind her were two young-looking men, one with a heavy, majestic aura and the other an arrogant, unbridled look. Yan Zhaoge recognised them to be Kang Maosheng and Kang Jinyuan.

  Yan Zhaoge was rather taken aback, “It really is the Grand Xuan Dynasty! They actually bore the risk of further angering the Southeastern Exalt and came over here?”

  He instantly realised, “They should be here to check up on me after hearing about the rumours?”
