Status: He was called out by an expert from the Yinmo Sect to discuss the invasion of the Eastern Region when he sensed Mu Shuiyun’s death through the green silk thread around his finger. The green silk thread was the product of the Resonance Curse he had cast on her. When he arrived, he couldn’t find anything. However, when he used his energy to sweep the surroundings, he accidentally shattered the Formation.

Jiang Ming knew he was in trouble when he saw Bai Zizai’s information on the Human Paths Record. He had no trouble facing Primal Spirit cultivators, but that was not the case for Paradis experts.

Cultivators who had entered the Paradis Realm were also known as Great Monarchs. This was the case everywhere in the world.

When Jiang Ming initially sensed Bai Zizai’s presence, he had wrongly assumed he would be able to deal with Bai Zizai. Although he had come with an idea in his mind, he still could not help the fear that rose in his heart.

While Jiang Ming tried to provoke Bai Zizai with his words, he brought the Mana Sealing Chessboard again and activated it.

Buzz!

The chessboard vibrated before a powerful pulling force swept toward Bai Zizai, pulling him into the chessboard.

“What a powerful force! What kind of Dao Vessel is that?” Bai Zizai exclaimed in shock as divine light burst forth from his body. A vortex formed around him, counteracting the chessboard’s pulling force.

“He managed to resist it?!” Jiang Ming was shocked. He hastily mobilized his mana and channeled it into the Mana Sealing Chessboard.

“Who are you?” Bai Zizai asked, shocked. Despite being able to withstand it for the moment, he felt as though the force was able to devour him whole. He could clearly sense a great threat from the chessboard and was shocked by it. With his current cultivation base, barring those powerful beings living in seclusion, he could easily defeat most people in this world. He did not expect he would run into someone who made him feel so highly threatened today.

In all honesty, Bai Zizai was not really bothered about the deaths of his illegitimate son, grandsons, and even Mu Shuiyun whom he had been infatuated with for a long time. Moreover, he was not lacking women. With just a wave of his hand, countless women would flock to him. If he wanted children, he only needed to expend a little more effort.

When Bai Zizai sensed the pulling force had intensified and that he was about to be sucked in, he hurriedly summoned his battle armor on himself. The battle armor shone with a silver light and emitted a formidable aura.

The armor glowed with intensifying brightness, neutralizing some of the pulling force.

At this time, two dragon horns appeared on Bai Zizai’s head. This was a sign that he was about to revert to his dragon form. With this, his aura soared terrifyingly.

Shortly afterward, a sword that also shone with a silver light appeared in Bai Zizai’s hand. The sword looked so intimidating that Jiang Ming felt as though he had already been cleaved into two by the sword even though the sword had not even moved yet.

A strange phenomenon appeared above Bai Zizai’s head at this moment. It looked as though the ocean, which was flashing with lightning bolts, had appeared above his head. The lightning bolts looked like thunder dragons leaping out of the surface of the sea. At this moment, it looked as though the ocean had drowned the sky.

With a combination of his abilities, Bai Zizai finally managed to completely neutralize the pulling force from the Mana Sealing Chessboard.

Jiang Ming was stunned. ‘D*mn it! I thought I wouldn’t run into any problems considering my strength and a top-grade Dao Vessel. I didn’t expect to run into a monster like him!’

A hint of despair rose in Jiang Ming’s heart when he realized the precarious situation he was in. He thought that Bai Zizai must be the source of uneasiness he had felt when he had first left Jiuyang Sect.

Jiang Ming had been very cautious when he acted this time. Before trapping Mi Shuiyun and the others in the Mana Sealing Chessboard, he had even cast a Formation to isolate the area from the world. It was out of his expectation that Bai Zizai had cast the Resonance Curse on Mu Shuiyun or that Bai Zizai would rush here as soon as he sensed Mu Shuiyun’s death.

‘Today is definitely not my day!’

Countless thoughts raced through Jiang Ming’s mind as he hastily put the Mana Sealing Chessboard away and vanished into thin air.

“Where did he go?” Bai Zizai muttered to himself, “Although he’s strong, I can sense he’s still in one of the lower realms. He definitely didn’t tear the void open. This means… he has comprehended the technique to control space! I have to kill him today! Otherwise, he’ll become a threat to us in the future!”

Bai Zizai knew how formidable spatial control ability was. He closed his eyes and extended his consciousness. In just a blink of an eye, he saw Jiang Ming who had appeared 3,000 miles away.

“He didn’t leave any fluctuations when he moved. Did he teleport?” Bai Zizai inhaled deeply before he shot toward Jiang Ming like a streak of light.

As soon as Jiang Ming reappeared 3,000 miles away, he felt Bai Zizai charging toward him at top speed.

“Seriously?!” Jiang Ming exclaimed. When he looked up, he saw an energy sword tearing through the sky. The silver light it emitted was so bright that it illuminated the entire night sky.

“D*mn it!” Jiang Ming cursed. He knew he would die if he was unable to dodge the attack.

“I need to run!” Jiang Ming hurriedly teleported away again.

As soon as stepped on the spatial node, he saw a ripple in the void before he was expelled from the void by a powerful force. In the end, he only managed to teleport 300 miles away.

“The power to distort space!” Jiang Ming cried out.

At the same time, the energy sword landed on a mountain behind him, splitting the peak into two and reducing the rubble into dust.

In just a moment, Jiang Ming felt Bai Zizai coming at him again.

“D*mn it! Why can’t I shake him off?” Jiang Ming cursed in an anxiety-laden voice. He had assumed that even if he were no match for Bai Zizai, he would have no problem fleeing from Bai Zizai. After all, he had once blocked an attack from a Paradis expert. At this moment, he finally realized how naive he was.

Swoosh!

The Human Paths Record appeared in his mind. Then, just as Bai Zizai was about to attack again, he cried out, “Akasa projection!”

Jiang Ming used one-tenth of his power to form a powerful decoy. With the help of the Human Paths Record, he sent the clone near Bai Zizai.

The clone used the Heaven Suppression Divine Seal and Wood Dragon to attack Bai Zizai.

Bai Zizai froze for a moment but swiftly regained his senses. He brandished his sword, destroying both the divine seal and the clone. At this time, the forest that had shot out from the ground launched their attacks against him. He summoned a lightning bolt, destroying the forest that spanned several dozen miles in just a blink of an eye. Then, when he tried to track Jiang Ming again, he discovered he had lost Jiang Ming.

“You think you can run?” Bai Zizai scoffed. Then, he closed his eyes and extended a stand of his consciousness into the void before he began to search for Jiang Ming.

“Although you did a good job concealing your presence and didn’t leave any traces behind, I’m sure you’re still around…” Bai Zizai murmured to himself. After a moment, his eyes snapped open as he said, “Found you!”

With that, Bai Zizai shot toward the northwestern direction at top speed.

At the same time, Jiang Ming was teleporting away with all his might after sending his clone out as a decoy. After teleporting about 6,000 miles away, his face turned pale when he sensed that Bai Zizai had destroyed his clone. Since the clone was formed from his power, its destruction would naturally affect him as well.

“He shouldn’t be able to find me now, right?” Jiang Ming had concealed himself with the system’s help. He was just about to sigh in relief when he felt Bai Zizai’s consciousness locking onto him again.

“So fast?!” Jiang Ming’s expression changed drastically. He hurriedly flicked his fingers before nine top-grade spirit crystals appeared, forming a simple Formation around him. His body began to increase in size until he was 3.33 meters in height.

This was the first stage of the Three-fold Astral Transformation that could boost his physical strength. Then, he teleported again. When he reappeared, he had already teleported 10,000 miles away. He did not stop and kept teleporting again and again.. He only stopped when he arrived at a place that once belonged to the Feiyun Sect but had been seized by the Bishui Sect.
