Chapter 212: Am I Escaping? (Part One)

“I advise you to listen to me. As a child, one should understand that not being obedient means getting a beating,” said Lu Ye calmly.

“Don’t you agree, Wang Daoist?” Lu Ye stared at a cultivator shrouded in black mist.

Wang Shuihan’s expression changed.

How did he recognize his identity?

Damn!

“I’m attacking!”

Without wasting words, Wang Shuihan unleashed his full power in the Return to One Realm, smashing violently against the barrier.

Other Return to One Realm cultivators, hearing “Wang Daoist,” immediately wondered about his identity.

Though they didn’t know who Wang Daoist was, it was likely he had some connection to the Wang Family.

If the Wang Family had compromised, what chance did they have?

So, attack!

There were already twelve Return to One Realm experts present, with the Jiang Family completely wiped out. One could imagine just how desperately this group craved the Jiang Family’s resources.

But there was a big pit here.

A Destined Realm cultivator!

Forcing a group of Return to One Realm cultivators to fight against a legacy artifact’s defense.

If this were to spread, no one would believe it, yet it was happening right before their eyes.

“Such audacity! Such audacity!”

“My Jiang Family shall endure forever, with a reputation that shakes both ancient and modern times. Never have we faced such humiliation!”

“In the Third Heaven, these people—every single one of them, my Jiang Family will not let go!”

The Spirit Girl’s eyes burned with fury.

This was no place to linger, even if it had once been a Primordial Treasure; it had been heavily damaged.

Spirit Treasures, Supreme Treasures, Dao Treasures, Great Dao Treasures, Primordial Treasures, Chaos Treasures…

These represented almost a shared rank among various artifacts.

The first three were distinguished as innate or acquired, while the latter were no longer clearly divided, as the Great Dao was imprinted on them, self-generating from the Great Dao itself; the gap between the self-generated and granted Great Dao was negligible.

Of course, there was still some difference.

But that difference was insufficient to split them into two tiers.

The Void Pendant.

It certainly had more than just defensive capabilities.

In truth, its greatest ability was to slip into the void, but if it took so many people along, it would cause a significant drain on the precious source it had painstakingly recovered.

It was reluctant to use it unless absolutely necessary.

Using the means of escaping into the void was incredibly comfortable.

Now that things were at such a desperate juncture, it had to escape with the last bloodline of the Jiang Family in the Third Heaven.

This grudge, the Jiang Family would definitely seek vengeance!

They would definitely seek vengeance!

“Into the void, escape!”

The Spirit Girl shouted angrily.

The Void Pendant immediately radiated a brilliant light as the void began to ripple slightly.

Huh?

The Spirit’s expression shifted slightly.

Why weren’t they slipping into the void?

“Escape!”

The light from the Void Pendant grew even stronger.

Finally, the void changed, intricate patterns appearing in space like chains, completely sealing the void.

The moment Lu Ye saw that the legacy artifact was the Void Pendant, he had already thought of its potential to vanish into the void, so he had specially set up a great formation around it.

Lock the space, lock it tight!

Thankfully, this was the Jiang Family; they had numerous treasures associated with the void; otherwise, it would have been uncertain if this great formation could truly seal the space so thoroughly.

Lu Ye had truly done all he could to try and unite the Jiang Family.

Because Lu Ye’s figure had begun to fade.

With every booming sound, Jiang Die regained consciousness the fastest.

First, she was bewildered.

Then, her expression changed dramatically.

Upon realizing they were protected by the legacy artifact, Jiang Die couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

“Senior, can we leave?” Jiang Die hurriedly asked.

With the legacy artifact present, there shouldn’t be much of a problem leaving, right?

The Spirit Girl began to curse vehemently.

“Leave my ass! The space has already been sealed by the great formation. This Thousand Chains Locking Void Formation—how can there be someone in the Third Heaven who sets this up? Not even many in the Fifth Heaven can do this!”

Jiang Die’s face went pale.

Who set it up?

Clearly, it must have been Lu Ye.

Let alone the Thousand Chains Locking Void Formation, he could even set up the Ten Thousand Stars Suppressing Heaven Formation!

Damn!

Was this the pressure from being an enemy of Lu Ye?

Jiang Die felt her scalp tingle.

Although she had experienced this once in the Second Heaven, at that time, she had felt strong and confident.

Now she had weakened and was no longer so sure. Faced with Lu Ye, the terror of Lu Ye was fully manifested; a Destined Realm cultivator was suffocating the whole Third Heaven.

She had to understand, above the Destined Realm, there were the Cause Realm, Three-Life Realm, and Return to One Realm!

How was he able to do this?

She finally understood why, in the last life, any alien or Demonic Cultivator felt fear upon hearing Lu Ye’s name or even the word ‘destiny.’

This sense of oppression.

This terrifying vibe that showed no mercy.

This feeling of being trapped with no way out, sentenced to death.

Nine Lives Celestial Lord, could there be another meaning?

Even if you have nine lives, provoking the Nine Lives Celestial Lord might still get you killed without a trace?

Can’t deny, it’s a possibility!

“Forget about them. Just take me with you; that way, I can exert maximum power to maybe break through the great formation’s shackles,” Jiang Die said.

The Spirit Girl glanced at her.

“If I leave on my own, would the chances of success be higher?”

“I’ll tell you the truth. In my last life, I was a Great Emperor, with the memories of a Great Emperor. If I survive this time, I can help you become an Emperor-level artifact!” Jiang Die hastily expressed.

The Void Pendant???

“You?”

“Great Emperor?”

“A reborn Great Emperor would be chased to such an extent?”

The Void Pendant felt this woman had gone mad. At this moment, it was not about taking one or a group but was a matter of whether it could escape even with all its might.

The Void Pendant kept trying!

Trying, trying, and trying again!

The golden barrier grew thinner and weaker.

The other young members of the Jiang Family also regained consciousness at this moment, filled with despair.

Some, under the pressure of death, cried out in agony.

“What’s happening? How could a mighty Jiang Family, a strong Jiang Family, just fall apart like that?”

This single sentence elicited a wave of thoughts among everyone.

Why did the Jiang Family perish?

Clearly, it was because of Lu Ye.

Why did the Jiang Family become enemies with Lu Ye?

Because of Jiang Die!

Moreover, they’d heard that back when Lu Ye was in the First Heaven, Jiang Die had forced the Eternal Order Sect to kill Lu Ye.

Even though Lu Ye didn’t even know her!

“It’s all your fault! It’s all your fault!”

“If it weren’t for you provoking Lu Ye, how could the Jiang Family have fallen to such a state?”

“You are the sinner of the Jiang Family! The sinner of the Jiang Family! Before the Jiang Family perishes, you must die first!”

“Kill her! Even if I die, I must personally kill her!”

In that moment, an overwhelming rage poured down on Jiang Die.
