Yun You Weng’s jealousy raged like a wildfire, consuming his reason. If only he had known that this very divine power fruit held the key to cultivating the Yun Zhuan divine power, why would he have crossed the Outer Building boundary so hastily? Why would he have consumed a forbidden art, sacrificing eighty years of his lifespan?

He desired nothing more than to seize this divine power fruit at the opportune moment! It was the Yun Zhuan divine power! A renowned and formidable divine power.

He clearly did not understand that the primary prerequisite for the Yun Zhuan divine power was a pure heart, untouched by the karma of life and death, one who had never harmed another living being. Compared to Ye Ling Xiao, his understanding of all matters related to Chi Yun Mountain was vastly inferior. Yet, this did not diminish his burning jealousy.

Yun You Weng felt his heart contorted, unwilling, unsatisfied, indignant! Why did good fortune always elude him? Why did all the good things fall to others?

That Dou Mian, born into prominence, a young genius, achieved the Divine Power Inner Mansion before reaching twenty years of age, and obtained the Dou Zhan Golden Body! With a mere flick of his hand, he effortlessly seized the Ling Kong Hall, which Yun You Weng had coveted for so long.

This Ye Qing Yu, a woman of exquisite beauty and extraordinary background, was the sole princess of Yun Country, her father a True Person of renowned prestige. She possessed wealth and power in abundance. She entered Chi Yun Mountain on a whim, clearly doing nothing, understanding nothing, yet unexpectedly devoured the Yun Zhuan divine power!

Meanwhile, he had toiled tirelessly from a young age, advancing step by arduous step. He had to earn trust to become Yun You Weng. On this trip to Chi Yun Mountain, he had devised over a hundred schemes, gambled almost everything. He felt he was locked in a wager with destiny, a hero striving against the wind and waves, a fighter battling an unjust world. Yet, despite placing his heavy bet, he had obtained nothing!

He cleared away the Yun Beasts with a single move, directly lunging towards Ye Qing Yu, wishing he could cleave open her Inner Mansion and extract the Yun Zhuan divine power seed – though he knew this was impossible, for a cultivator of the Inner Mansion realm, the divine power seed would collapse upon death.

As Yun You Weng charged with hatred, Dou Mian also raised his blade and approached, his Tian Ye Knife directly challenging the seven-colored flag cloud carriage. Ye Qing Yu, having just obtained the divine power and opened her Inner Mansion, found it difficult to cope with two such powerful opponents, even with the assistance of the seven-colored flag cloud carriage.

However, at this very moment, both Dou Mian and Yun You Weng simultaneously turned their heads! A figure was falling from the sky above the peak of Chi Yun Mountain. His appearance was clear and handsome, his figure straight and tall. As he descended amidst the whistling wind, he exuded a confident and resolute freedom. He surveyed the battle unfolding on Chi Yun Mountain’s peak, his eyes calm as they swept over Ye Qing Yu, as if to say – *Fear not.*

He seemed to have leaped from another time and space, appearing without warning, his arrival already a reality. It was that Du Gu Wu Di! Yun You Weng formed hand seals, while Dou Mian turned his knife and counter-charged. Both men simultaneously altered their direction, converging on Jiang Wang.

Killing one Ye Qing Yu would achieve what? Breaking the seven-colored flag cloud carriage would yield what at most? Only by slaying this Du Gu Wu Di could they truly reap a harvest! The divine power seed would collapse, but the Yun Ding Immortal Palace would not perish with him!

As for Jiang Wang, leaping from that “empty void” and bringing the Yun Ding Immortal Palace back to Chi Yun Mountain, he finally understood what he had gained. He finally recognized that he had indeed become the master of the Yun Ding Immortal Palace. For in the Near Ancient era, Chi Yun Mountain was the mountain gate of the Yun Ding Immortal Palace! Upon descending with the Yun Ding Immortal Palace, he had already clearly perceived everything in this place, becoming the “master” of Chi Yun Mountain.

Yun You Weng and Dou Mian, one at the Outer Building Three Borders, the other a One Mansion Divine Power. If they were outside, truly confronting him at their peak, neither would be easy to handle. But at this time and place, here on Chi Yun Mountain, and with him having already become the master of Chi Yun Mountain, it was truly… within his grasp!

Jiang Wang merely raised a palm, and all the Yun Beasts across the mountain howled, their sounds shaking the heavens. The ferocious Yun Beasts on Chi Yun Mountain had been largely avoided earlier by Yun You Weng and Dou Mian, and Ye Qing Yu, driving the seven-colored flag cloud carriage, had charged straight through, never truly experiencing their ferocity. They were not true life forms, for living beings struggled to endure the prolonged conditions of Chi Yun Mountain. They were the mountain itself, a manifestation of its power. They merely guarded their fixed positions, never venturing outside their range, nor did they relentlessly pursue and attack. This had provided sufficient opportunity for those who entered Chi Yun Mountain to pass through with ease. But once the mountain master issued a command, they would immediately bare their fangs, revealing their most ferocious, most powerful side.

Yun You Weng and Dou Mian were both seasoned veterans of countless battles. Feeling the response of the Yun Beasts across the mountain, their first thought was not fear, but killing intent. They desired a swift resolution, to strike down Du Gu Wu Di before the ferocious Yun Beasts arrived!

Yun You Weng’s left hand formed the mountain character seal, his right hand the wind character seal, remotely resonating with the Three Holy Buildings. Starlight flashed across his body as he instantly erupted with his full power. Meanwhile, Dou Mian horizontally turned his knife, his gaze becoming indifferent. His Tian Ye Knife chopped out an extraordinarily exaggerated arc, the knife momentum suddenly soaring… Dou Zhan’s Six Styles of Divine Nature Extinction!

Jiang Wang calmly watched them, flipping his palm and lightly pressing down. Both Yun You Weng and Dou Mian were pressed to the ground! Their limbs were splayed, held down by an invisible force, pressed dead against the mountaintop, unable to move. What starlight Holy Buildings, what mountain character seals, what wind character seals, all instantly crumbled. What Dou Zhan’s Six Styles, they didn’t even have the opportunity to fully manifest. Jiang Wang was directly mobilizing the power of the entire Chi Yun Mountain, conducting a naked suppression.

“Indeed, one step late, every step is late.” Dou Mian let out a bitter laugh. He was laughing at himself, at his own arrogance, yet repeatedly failing within Chi Yun Mountain. After an accidental discovery of the Yun Ding Immortal Palace’s secret, utilizing the Dou family’s power, and enduring several twists and turns, he had identified the forces related to Chi Yun Mountain on all sides. Finally, he chose Ling Kong Hall, making a large investment and taking it over. All for this trip to Chi Yun Mountain, for the precious inheritance of the Near Ancient era, the result was utter chaos.

Only, he did not understand. According to the intelligence he had gathered, to enter the Yun Ding Immortal Palace, one must first find the key entry points. For example, the welcome guest pavilion on the south side of the mountain, the Yun Wen command token in the hand of the white-clothed Taoist boy, or the water pool on the north side of the mountain, which was said to hide a jade plaque left behind by some direct disciple of the ancient Yun Ding Immortal Palace. These clues had cost him a great deal of effort to obtain and should not be wrong.

That was why he had fought to the death with Yun You Weng in the welcome guest pavilion. That was why he did not feel that opportunity was within reach, that the two people from Ling Xiao Cabinet would still choose the divine power fruit. If they had simply taken the divine power fruit, that would have been all. The biggest problem was… clearly the “key” had not been taken, so how did the Yun Ding Immortal Palace appear? And how did this Du Gu Wu Di enter the Yun Ding Immortal Palace?

Unlike Dou Mian, who was still pondering the problem and seeking opportunity, Yun You Weng, also pressed to the ground by the power of Chi Yun Mountain, was already overwhelmed by immense failure and jealousy. He struggled, almost twisting his neck with all his might, letting everyone hear the sound of his neck twisting. Enduring such immense pressure, almost breaking his own neck, just to… stare at Jiang Wang. So fixated.

His eyes were red, fixed on Jiang Wang: “Why! Why can you obtain the Yun Ding Immortal Palace? What did you do! What did you pay!”
