Yet another Human Exalt had been killed by Yan Di, following the footsteps of the former Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen.
Next, Jade Capital Crag’s Origin Opening Sword had been taken out and delivered to Fallen Deity Yan Zhaoge, with the black-clothed Brocade Emperor having then been soundly sent packing.
And finally, most shocking of all was that the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng had been rampantly slain by Yan Zhaoge!
As soon as the news spread, the entire World beyond Worlds was rendered speechless.
It was not shock that everyone first felt as they instead felt somewhat lost.
Even if the Upper Exalt Chen Qianhua had died, it would not have affected the World beyond Worlds as immensely as this.
On one hand, Chen Qianhua was a solitary person who seldom interacted with others.
On the other, he had only accomplished his fame over a century ago at the end of the day.
In contrast, the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng was virtually from the founding era of the World beyond Worlds, having weathered many storms with the World beyond Worlds over the years.
With the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors reigning high above, it was Wang Zhengcheng who interacted with the various powers of the World beyond Worlds most of the time.
His authority did not just originate from the Earthly Sovereign alone.
Wang Zhengcheng had played a significant role throughout the entire history of the World beyond Worlds as his influence was something that could not be understated.
While he was a Martial Saint, the effects of his death were comparable to if it was an Emperor who had died.
Such an existence had actually been slain in battle today?
Countless people of the World beyond Worlds were rendered dazed on the spot, finding it hard to come to terms with it.
In the southwestern Vermillion Heaven Territory, close to where the central Jun Heaven Territory and the western Turtle Heaven Territory met, a white-clothed man stood amidst space as he was silent for a long time.
The disciples beside him were also all gaping and speechless at this moment.
A long while passed before they finally snapped out of it and turned to look at that white-clothed man, “Master…sen…senior apprentice-uncle Yan killed the Earth Exalt. This…this is really…”
The white-clothed man was the Southwestern Exalt Bai Tao.
He had left after receiving Wang Pu’s message to reinforce the central Jun Heaven Territory while keeping an eye on the Western Exalt Lang Qing from the western Turtle Heaven Territory’s Nongli Mountain as well.
It was just that the sudden news still left him at a loss.
“The Earth Exalt is a descendant of the Earthly Sovereign at the end of the day,” Bai Tao resumed his footsteps in striding towards the central Jun Heaven Territory, “Things will not end easy here…”
As the martial practitioners who were congregated in the vicinity of Yuanzhou City in having originally come to attend the auction heard about this, a deathly silence descended at once.
When everyone had finally finished digesting the news, they all felt it to be inexplicable as they were shocked.
Those who had the qualifications to attend the auction were all not simple as they were heroes of a region themselves.
They all acutely realised that today’s matter was probably merely the beginning!
This battle was very likely to have far-reaching effects, even completely shaking the global situation of the World beyond Worlds that had been stable for so long.
Everyone’s gazes that were on the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion turned complex as well.
The Earthly Sovereign’s might had been accumulated for many years as he was likely supported by the Concealed Sovereign too.
Behind Broad Creed Mountain and the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion stood the Sword Sovereign.
With a standoff between the two sides centred about the southern and northern peaks of Kunlun Mountain, the martial practitioners of the World beyond Worlds had vaguely been divided in two.
As Northern High Peak’s Jade Capital Crag had arisen relatively later on, it was inferior to Southern High Peak’s Qilin Cliff in terms of accumulation as well as reputation.
Still, aside from the ever-elusive Chen Qianhua, the most outstanding newly arisen geniuses of the World beyond Worlds’ recent generations virtually all shared a close relationship with Jade Capital Crag.
In contrast, while Qilin Cliff’s lineage was not low in quantity, they lacked a famed leading figure of the younger generation who was comparable to Yan Zhaoge and the others.
At the same time, many great powers of the World beyond Worlds had deep ties with the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion as decisively terminating their relationship was not something that could be done so easily.
Even if they were determined to do so, Qilin Cliff had to believe them and time would be needed to verify this too.
A greater cause for concern was how no one really seemed able to keep Broad Creed Mountain in check at all with the Earthly Sovereign away and the Concealed Sovereign in secluded cultivation.
The only way this might be possible was if the Emperors of the World beyond Worlds all joined forces in suppressing them.
Still, things were such that they should already count their blessings if the Female Emperor did not help Broad Creed Mountain, the Brocade Emperor was in a spot of trouble himself and the Encompassing Emperor was strictly neutral. The Heaven Emperor alone was helpless.
How things would change when the Earthly Sovereign returned and the Concealed Sovereign emerged from seclusion was something for the future.
Before that, Broad Creed Mountain and Jade Capital Crag held a clear, absolute advantage. The current World beyond Worlds was effectively their playground.
If they offended Yan Zhaoge and co now in wishing to stand on the side of Qilin Cliff, they would probably be tragically doomed, only being able to wait for someone to avenge them in the future.
Such a predicament left everyone rather conflicted.
With that, when Yan Zhaoge returned to the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion, no one knew what to say as they saw him.
Yan Zhaoge was wholly unconcerned with this as he simply smiled and nodded to those acquainted ones before walking towards Xiao Ai and the others.
“Xiao Ai, my mother’s fine. Do you want to go see her?”
On hearing his words, Xiao Ai’s eyes instantly widened as she nodded enthusiastically like a chicken pecking feed, “Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!”
“Right. Just go to the eastern Vast Heaven Territory’s Remote Cloud Mountain. Both my father and mother have headed there,” Yan Zhaoge smiled.
The hearts of those in the vicinity all jolted as they heard this.
While they had had a vague feeling that this would be the case after hearing that the Eastern Exalt, Daoist Oneheaven, had been slain by Yan Di, it was still different hearing it from the horse’s mouth as they all felt somewhat emotional at this.
Broad Creed Mountain would thereon truly be the East Peak of Daoism.
Also, it was different from Nongli Mountain that occupied the western Turtle Heaven Territory.
Broad Creed Mountain that was soon to become the overlord of the eastern Vast Heaven Territory clearly did not have its influence limited merely to the east.
Rather than that, it was a massive entity which held the entire World beyond Worlds in its sway.
The endless potential of Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di who were Martial Saints but could match True Immortals had only just begun to manifest for real.
Their future accomplishments would only be even more terrifying.
With that, East Broad Creed was vaguely forming in opposition to Central Kunlun.
To everyone, it already seemed almost apparent that Kunlun Mountain was no longer the sole centre of the World beyond Worlds.

Although everyone in the vicinity tried to keep their gaze as concealed as possible, how could Yan Zhaoge not be aware of it?
However, he did not say much about that, and after watching Xiao Ai heading east with joy, he turned to look at Qiu Jiahai and Wang Pu who also just returned to Yuanzhou City.
"Thanks for lending me the sword, senior apprentice-brother," said Yan Zhaoge as he spread his palm, on which appeared an ancient sword glimmering with golden radiance.
Immortal Artifacts, Origin Opening Sword!
Now in its dormancy, the sword looked quite ordinary.
However, if someone concentrated his mind to see how the ancient sword looked like, he would unwittingly immerse himself in it, with his mind enchanted and his soul hurt by the sword intent.
Though its sword intent was not ferocious, swords like this were still weapons that could kill and slaughter, the fierceness and sharpness of which were naturally far greater than that of other treasures.
Wang Pu took the sword with a forced smile, "Zhaoge, I didn't expect you to kill…"
"Though we're enemies, I have to admit that Earthly Exalt was an opponent of indomitable will." Yan Zhaoge continued, "If I didn't finish him this time, he would never stop making troubles until he got what he wanted. This time, what he did endangered my mother, which left me no choice."
With that, he cupped his hand and apologized, "I'm deeply sorry what I did may bring trouble to senior apprentice-uncle Yue and senior apprentice-brothers of Jade Capital Crag."
Both Wang Pu and Qiu Jiahai shook their heads repeatedly with wry smiles.
"What's done is done. The top priority is to figure out a way to deal with the follow-up problems," said Qiu Jiahai with a long sigh. "I'm wondering when Concealed Sovereign will end his secluded cultivation, when Earthly Sovereign and Master will get back to Worlds beyond Worlds. It really matters which comes first."
"I'm planning on it." Yan Zhaoge then continued after briefly mentioning that Astro Sovereign might be in the northern Profound Heaven Territory, "Perhaps I may leave Worlds beyond Worlds, by then you can get in touch with my father should anything happen."
"I'd like to thank you in advance as we may have a lot favors to ask from you in the near future," said Yan Zhaoge in an earnest tone.
Qiu Jaihai turned to Wang Pu, who remained silent. As a man of prudence, he was somewhat conservative in the way he dealt with matters. He only lent Origin Opening Sword to stop the enemy from getting more powerful and to protect Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di's safety.
Never did Wang Pu expect that Yan family would gain such a complete victory and even slay the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng, which was absolutely not what he wanted. He was very much glad to help Yan Zhaoge and his father resist the pressure from Qilin Cliff, but declaring war with Qilin Cliff was never what he wanted for Jade Capital Crag.
However, he just heaved a long sigh after imagining how his Master Yue Zhenbei would react about this, "Rest assured. I'll assist senior apprentice-uncle Yan in stabilizing the situation. And it would be great if Astro Sovereign can help to mediate."
"Many thanks, senior apprentice-brother Wang and Yue," said Yan Zhaoge apologetically.
To some extent, Jade Capital Crag was dragged into this. Though he never hesitated to entrap others, he did feel sorry for the trouble he had made. Yet explaining excessively afterwards would be useless and hypocritical, what he could do now was to bear all this in mind and find some other way to compensate when there was a chance.
Besides, it had always been his code of conduct to redress after stirring up trouble.
"I have one more favor to ask. Please help to mediate the enmity between my mother and the northwestern Red Sea," Yan Zhaoge continued. "My father would persuade mother to return the treasures she got from northwestern Red Sea, if they are still in her hands."
The Northwestern Exalt Lian Zulin had been in chase of Xue Chuqing but stopped ever since she learned the connection between Yan family and Jade Jade Capital Crag on the opening ceremony of Broad Creed Mountain.
"If the treasures are lost or destroyed, we would try all we can to make up for the loss," added Yan Zhaoge with his hands folded.
Wang Pu shook his head, "Junior apprentice-brother Yan, there is really no need to stand on ceremony. Are you leaving for the northern Profound Heaven Territory now?"
"I'll first go to Kunlun Mountain with you then head north afterwards," replied Yan Zhaoge with a smile.
Upon hearing that, Wang Pu's heart jolted for a second. But he soon regained his composure as nothing would be as shocking as the fact that Wang Zhengcheng was killed by Yan Zhaoge.
"What are you planning?" asked Wang Pu after accepting Yan Zhaoge's company.
"Hey hey…" Yan Zhaoge grinned, which immediately sent shivers down the spine of Wang Pu, who nearly lost his composure again.
With an unfathomable smile, Yan Zhaoge turned to Qiu Jiahai, "Brother Qiu, please help to appease the guests attending the auction and explain to them that Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion will keep the routine of one auction a month. And please let the guests be patient as I may not be able to provide an exact deadline for customized service."
He had some matters to attend to in the following days and would not be able to refine implements in Dragon Butterfly Valley.
There were still some treasures in stock for monthly auction; however, customized service would have to wait till he got some time.
Yan Zhaoge headed straight to Kunlun Mountain after asking Qiu Jiaha et al to help deal with some matters of Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion.
Upon entering Kunlun Mountain, Wang Pu immediately pulled a long face when he saw the towering peak in the distance.
"I'll go alone. Please stay here, Brother Wang," said Yan Zhaoge smilingly. Then he walked in the air to the mountain.
A Hu asked out of curiosity, "Mr. Wang, what is that place?"
"Illusory Coming Peak…" gnashed Wang Pu with a look of toothache, "the adobe of Heaven Emperor."
Illusory Coming Peak in Kunlun Mountain was the place where Heaven Emperor's dao arena dwelled.
Wang Pu's face gradually turned grave as he watched Yan Zhaoge's back. Then with a second thought, he knew why Yan Zhaoge was here.
Yan Zhaoge was not here to simply vent his anger, he was here to send a message to the Worlds beyond Worlds, a silent message that would break the current sitemap of three sovereigns and five emperors.
All in Worlds beyond Worlds were stirred and took a wait-and-see approach for what would happen later after Yan Zhaoge killed Wang Zhengcheng.
Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain were now declaring their stand with great fanfare: They had no intention of bowing their heads to Qilin Cliffs.
Moving the whole Broad Creed Mountain to the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory and becoming the Lord of the East was only the first step.
What Yan Zhaoge was doing now was the second step.
"It was such an honor that Heaven Emperor visited Broad Creed Mountain twice, an honor that I, Yan Zhaoge, dared not forget." Yan Zhaoge walked in the air and stopped over the Illusory Coming Peak, "Now I'm repaying the visit, are you, Heaven Emperor, in the peak?"
With that, he stretched his palm and pressed down at the Illusory Coming Peak, which, originally reaching high into the clouds, now shrank into the size of a tea cup under his palm.

The Heaven Emperor traveled far to the Royal Reed Sea in Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, tending to seek the Later Earth Text hidden there.
Unexpectedly, he was blocked by Nie Jingshen.
Then came the news that Yan Zhaoge and his father had defeated consecutively the Brocade Emperor in Black, Chen Qianhua, Wang Zhengcheng, etc.
Especially when the Heaven Emperor learned that Yan Di had killed Daoist Oneheaven, the Eastern Exalt, and Yan Zhaoge killed Wang Zhengcheng, the Earthly Exalt, he knew it was impossible to get it.
He had expected that Nie Jingshen would be distracted by Wang Zhengcheng and Chen Qianhua et al.
In the end, Nie Jingshen was still there, firmly, while he was going to fall apart.
Nie Jingshen, of course, couldn’t do anything to him. Once Yan Zhaoge returned to the Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory with the Origin Opening Sword, he couldn’t be safe anymore.
So again, he came with hope, knowing that the Later Earth Text was ahead of him, but had to return disappointed with empty hands.
Where the Heaven Emperor had gone after he left the Royal Reed Sea was unknown to Yan Zhaoge.
But it didn’t stop Yan Zhaoge to pop in for fighting.
With one move of the Cyclic Heavenly Seal, he directly struck the Heaven Emperor’s dojo, the Illusory Coming Peak.
At the same time, light flashed over the Illusory Coming Peak.
The dull yellow light revealed beams of pure glow, solid but alive.
Light and shade were changing before Yan Zhaoge, as if there was a solid land, which was comparable to the scene when Wang Zhengcheng, the Earthly Exalt, opened the Yin Yang Earth Mountain River Diagram.
