Miao Shihao said, “Perhaps not an ‘enemy power’, but it is likely that you and the Celestial Sect of Wonders have been designated as ‘unstable power’.”

“After the Mount Shu Battle, you completely refined your Heaven-Destroying Sword. Before the Supreme Heavenly Mirror could make a complete recovery, there is already someone who can rival the Great Void Sect. While the Supreme Heavenly Mirror is recovering, you continue to cultivate and refine the Heaven-Destroying Sword. The future may no longer be in the Great Void Sect’s control.”

“Under these circumstances, among the four sections in the Great Void Sect, the Radical Conservatives, the Radicals, and the Centrist Conservatives would all view you as an enemy. The ultraconservatives can only stand by in silence.”

Miao Shihao shook his head and said, “After Heaven’s Gate, many weaker sects had been designated as ‘unstable powers’. This was the doing of the Ultraconservative Faction. The other factions just went along with it.”

“The reason why Heaven’s Gate and the Ancient Satanic Sect were designated as ‘unstable power’ and ‘enemy power’ respectively was because they threatened the position of the Great Void Sect, which then viewed them as enemies.”

“At the same time, they too aroused the Great Void Sect’s suspicion because of a variety of reasons.”

“The more special one amongst them was the Great Thunderclap Temple. In terms of historical development, the Great Thunderclap Temple was on a decline. However, they were a major power that could defend themselves well. The Buddha and his Ten Great Disciples provided them with more than enough resources.”

As Miao Shihao spoke, he started to knock on the tree branch of the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree as he continued, “They tried to teach the Buddhist way to the demons, angering the ultraconservatives. The Radical Faction too did not like the Great Thunderclap Temple too, because Buddhism heavily influenced the mortal world, much more than the Great Void Sect or other sects.”

“To the mortals, the Great Void Sect is too fluffy. However, Buddhist temples can be found everywhere.”

Miao Shihao then said plainly, “The incident with the Mount Shu Sword Sect many years ago was unrelated to the Great Void Sect. However, as the disciples of the Mount Shu Sword Sect were greedy, they sought to steal the Crimson Cultivation Fire Bronze Mine underneath Xiaocizhi Mountain and was later killed by the Crimson Gorillas. Ren Changmei then used his Saintly Celestial Sword to kill the then-Crimson Gorilla Grand Sage.”

“He thought that the Emperor of Extremity would focus on Mount Baiyun. In the end, the Emperor of Extremity turned his attention to Mount Shu.”

“From then on, the Mount Shu Sword Sect has been viewed as a friendly power by the Great Void Sect. It is not because the Mount Shu Sword Sect is particularly close to the Great Void Sect but instead, it is because they cannot threaten the Great Void Sect. Hence, they will not be targeted by the Radical Faction of the Great Void Sect, nor will they anger the Ultraconservative Faction of the Great Void Sect.”

Miao Shihao looked at Lin Feng before continuing, “In the Great Void Sect, I don’t know how does the Ultraconservative Faction view you and our sect. However, the Radical Conservatives, the Radicals and the Centrist Conservatives will naturally view you as an enemy.”

“4000 years ago, during that War of the Two Worlds, not only was the Tai Yi Holy Man heavily influential, the Great Void Sect was dominated by the ultraconservatives. However, after that war, the number of ultraconservative cultivators fell by a lot. Today, as long as the three other factions come to a consensus, the ultraconservatives, including the Tai Yi Holy Man, can only keep silent.”

“Under these circumstances, you and the sect have more or less been designated as an ‘unstable power’. The Great Void Sect will surely try to wear you down in the next War of the Two Worlds.”

“If you have been labeled as an ‘enemy power’, the Great Void Sect will come and finish you off if you are severely weakened in the upcoming war.”

Lin Feng nodded his head slowly as he tapped his forehead with his right index finger. “Zhu Yi, where are you now?”

It was inconvenient to communicate telepathically through the Void Battleground. It was as if it had been cut completely off from the Greater World.

However, with Zhu Yi’s Higan Golden Bridge, he was able to communicate with Lin Feng and Mount Yujing.

“Master, the target has fled to the Barren Expanses. We have left the Void Battleground and are heading towards the Void Battleground. After we leave the complex environment of the Void Battleground, we will soon catch up with the target as long as no demon tries to stop us,” Zhu Yi’s voice sounded in Lin Feng’s head.

Lin Feng’s face was expressionless as he asked, “Are the others with you?”

Zhu Yi replied, “Yes, Third Junior, Sixth Junior, Little Junior and our disciples are all with us.”

Lin Feng asked, “Are you certain that Tianhao’s parents are with the target?”

“Yes,” replied Zhu Yi confidently. He paused for a while and then asked, “Master, is there a problem?”

Lin Feng replied, “Something doesn’t seem right. Beware of ambush.”

“However, we must save Tianhao’s parents. Continue with your pursuit.”

As he said that, Lin Feng’s Avatar of Ares stood up from the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree. At the same time, the doors to the Tripitaka Block opened. Lin Feng himself and his Thunder Dragon Avatar stepped out. “Continue with your pursuit, I will meet with you.”

Zhu Yi replied, “Yes, master.”

On Mount Yujing, Lin Feng looked at Miao Shihao and said, “Shihao, thank you. You completed your closed-door training at a really opportune time.”

Miao Shihao smiled slightly and immediately, his cool and aloof demeanor changed back to his usual, coy self as he said, “My lord, how can you say that? What am I to you?”

However, unlike previous times, his coyness disappeared as his smile faded. Soon, he reverted back to his elegant, haughty and cold demeanor.

Lin Feng’s expression did not change as he said plainly, “What is true may be false and what is false may be true. Many things cannot be understood unless you have personally done it.”

Zhu Yi’s Great Sun Avatar, Wang Lin’s Great Satanic Avatar, Yue Hongyan, Yang Qing and Luo Qingwu all appeared before him. “Master.”

Lin Feng’s Avatar of Ares said, “Descend the mountain and together with the Virtuous Zen Master, the Scorching Sun Holy Man and the Flowing Waves Holy Man, organize the Celestial Wonders World and the Yun Peak. Take care of the families of the disciples in the Cloud Mirror City and Shazhou City. Do it according to protocols.”

Fear crossed the hearts of Zhu Yi and the rest. Lin Feng’s orders sounded like preparations for war. While it may not break out, it was best to be prepared.

Wang Lin looked at Lin Feng and asked, “Master? Could it be... another War of the Two Worlds? However, there seems to be no omen now.”

Lin Feng looked at Miao Shihao and said, “Let Shihao explain everything to you.”

With that, Lin Feng used his powers to send his Avatar of Ares, Zhu Yi, Miao Shihao and the rest down.

The Thunder Dragon Avatar turned into a silver radiance of light. It entered Lin Feng’s head and then disappeared.

Lin Feng’s expression was calm. However, Mount Yujing started to tremble violently, along with the leaves of the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree. The leaves and branches extended into the infinite void space.

“I hope that it’s not what I predicted.” Lin Feng himself left Mount Yujing but he did not break through the void space to return to the Greater World. Instead, his form expanded rapidly. In the infinite void space, it appeared as if he had turned into a giant whose height could not be ascertained.

Above the enormous Mount Yujing, mystic and weird light began to flash above Lin Feng’s head. Purple clouds began to spread and soon, they enveloped the Black Heavenly Treasure Tree and the mountain’s peak. Floating above Lin Feng’s head, it resembled a purple, auspicious cloud.

As Lin Feng stepped forward in void space, it was as if he stepped through countless miles.

At the same time, Zhu Yi, Shi Tianhao, Wang Lin, Li Yuanfang and the rest made haste too. All of them had dark expressions.

“Could it be this incident?” Shi Tianhao asked slowly. His face was devoid of all emotions. However, he was like a volcano that was about to erupt.

Wang Lin said coldly, “Very likely. Thinking about it now, it does seem rather coincidental.”

Shi Tianhao’s voice became even colder than Wang Lin’s as he said, “I want to know now where have my parents been all these years? Are they in the hands of the Great Void Sect? Or does the Great Void Sect already know where they are and then, conveyed this information to the Hall of the Dead?”

Zhu Yi looked into the distance as he said, “The Supreme Heavenly Mirror may be able to seek out people hiding in the Void Battleground. However, the price is huge. If they cannot be sure that your parents remain in one particular spot, searching for your parents randomly is not likely to yield any result.”

Zhu Yi’s expression did not change as he said slowly, “Just now, as I was not paying close attention, I can barely feel it. Now, with master’s reminder, I can faintly feel that someone is affecting our way forward. While they do not want us to lose our target, they also do not want us to catch up with him.”

“It’s as if someone is deliberately controlling the distance between the target and us, or perhaps...” Zhu Yi frowned and continued, “He is trying to ensure that the target can flee to a particular spot.”

On his forehead, the light shadow of a giant turtle appeared. On the turtle’s shell, one could see many mystic runes, appearing and disappearing. Continually, they grouped together and then came apart.

The turtle’s two eyes were calm and vast like the sea. It looked forward and then, two intense blue rays of light shot toward the horizon up in front.

Everyone followed the rays of light. Suddenly, Zhu Yi and the rest felt a tug in their hearts. Looking carefully, they saw a shadow through the void space.

It was a middle-aged man clad in green robes. He was in the Immortal Soul Second Level and a rare look of desperation and panic appeared on his normally-calm face.

This was a Hallmaster of the Hall of the Dead whom Wang Lin had seen many years ago, King Chujiang.

King Chujiang was performing numerous spell gestures with his hand as he sent waves after waves of mana out and into the ground underneath him.

Then, a giant spell formation slowly took shape. This spell formation was extremely odd. Unlike modern, swirling spell formations, this was an ancient formation as old as the heaven and earth.
