True Martial World - Chapter 979: Shi Changsheng

Everyone in the Oracle Fey Kingdom was looking forward to the assessment that would happen in three days time.

A Divine Lord would be personally present. It was a grand event that had never happened in the past ten million years in the Oracle Fey Kingdom! Of course, other than the Divine Lord, the young warriors were focusing on another person, Yi Yun.

Yi Yun's stories and feats filled every restaurant in the Oracle Fey Kingdom, such as how he guided the Door of Misty Rain's array formation to defeat the Immortal Rain Sect disciples. Now, he would be personally assessed by Felicitous Rain Lord!

The three days passed in a blink of an eye!

The streets that led to Brocade Spring Court were longed packed to the brim.

However, when the excited warriors reached the entrance to Brocade Spring Court, they were informed that Brocade Spring Court was not to be open to the public.

Felicitous Rain Lord preferred quietness and there were just too many spectating warriors.

Upon hearing the news, the crowd were stupefied. They could not even get pass the door?

Those who came with great anticipation were left extremely disappointed.

Quite a number of them had rushed here from the factions of the alliance, but Brocade Spring Court was not going to be opened to the public.

And at that moment, a Oracle Fey Kingdom Elder stood up and said, "Everyone, the Oracle Fey Kingdom’s king, and Imperial Patriarch have gained special permission from the Divine Lord to set up a projection array for everyone. When the time comes, the scenes of the assessment will be displayed through the projection array. There is no need to turn anxious."

As the host, the Oracle Fey Kingdom definitely would not offend the people of so many other factions, so it naturally had its arrangements.

Projection array?

Many people were reluctant when they heard this. How could watching a projection array be better than watching in person?

However, on further thought, they knew that the ones who could enter Brocade Spring Court were famous figures in the alliance. If anyone could enter, Brocade Spring Court would probably be overfilled and exceed its capacity.

...

At that moment, it was strangely quiet in Brocade Spring Court.

An array had been set up in Brocade Spring Court to isolate all external sounds.

In the towering tree's hall, in the highest Star Picking Court in Brocade Spring Court, there were musicians playing music and dancers dancing. The dancers were from either the succubus or water snake race.

Fey race women were proficient at dancing. Some races even seemed to be born to dance. These races were not good at martial arts, but the women from these races were taken in by major large factions. When they danced, their sleeves seemed to fill the sky in a beautiful display of aesthetics.

At that moment, in Star Picking Court, there were people seated who were the most prominent figures in the Oracle Fey Kingdom.

The Oracle Fey Kingdom king was only sitting on the third level on the right side. To his left sat an elder in loose yellow robes. He looked somewhat old and his eyes looked torpid. The person was the Oracle Fey Kingdom's Imperial Patriarch, the true supreme person that wielded power in the Oracle Fey Kingdom!

And sitting in a position that corresponded to the Oracle Fey Kingdom king was a beautiful white-dressed woman. She was like an autumn rain, cool and refreshing, but she exuded a coldness that prevented people from approaching her. She was Shui Ningshuang.

And in the middle of Shui Ningshuang and the Oracle Fey Kingdom king sat a middle-aged man. He was dressed in ordinary azure-colored clothes. His aura was converged and he appeared to be simple. His looks were nothing special, but on a careful look, his aura seemed to blend perfectly into the environment. He exuded a sense of returning to one's original roots of simplicity.

Without a doubt, this person was a person whose name had spread throughout the alliance. With a single title, he was able to make the Fey Phantasm Sect fear him — Felicitous Rain Lord!

Felicitous Rain Lord was sitting in his seat of honor while there was dancing going on below him. The dancers and musicians were carefully selected by the Oracle Fey Kingdom, but Felicitous Rain Lord did not even take a look at them, like he was waiting for something.

"Divine Lord, perhaps we can now begin?" Beside Felicitous Rain Lord, the Oracle Imperial Patriarch asked.

"No hurry." Felicitous Rain Lord answered lightly as his gaze fell into the distance.

"Oh? Someone else is coming?"

The Oracle Imperial Patriarch thought of something. At that moment, violent spatial fluctuations appeared in the void just inches away from him. Immediately following that, the void was torn apart by a person. The person was a white-haired and browed elder who walked out of the void.

The elder had a stout figure and he was dressed in white robes. On the white robe, there were inked drawings of misty rain that shrouded immortal mountains. In the middle of his eyebrows, there was a faint runic imprint that looked like a raindrop.

"Felicitous Rain, long time no see." The white-haired elder said.

At the moment he spoke and addressed Felicitous Rain Lord without his title, the Oracle Imperial Patriarch was alarmed. Immediately, he figured out the elder's identity. He must be someone from the Immortal Rain Sect.

Only the people from the Immortal Rain Sect could directly address Felicitous Rain Lord without his title. As someone from the place of Felicitous Rain Lord's birth, the elder could very possibly be Felicitous Rain Lord's senior.

Before the elder appeared, the Oracle Imperial Patriarch did not sense anything. The elder's strength was similarly unfathomable.

As for the others, such as Elder Duanmu and company, they too had guessed the elder's identity.

"Old Man Changsheng, how have you been?" Felicitous Rain Lord's expression was deadpan like he was greeting an acquaintance.

Old Man Changsheng... Was he Shi Changsheng?

The people present had never heard of Old Man Changsheng's name, but the Oracle Imperial Patriarch had traveled around the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven in his youth and he learned a lot about the secrets of the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven's reclusive sects.

He had heard about Old Man Changsheng, who was an Elder of the Immortal Rain Sect.

He had made a name for himself a long time ago. The Oracle Imperial Patriarch wasn't young either, and he was many years older than Felicitous Rain Lord. However, Shi Changsheng had already become a Supremacy when the Oracle Imperial Patriarch was still a member of the younger generation!

So much time had passed, but the old man was still alive?

The Oracle Imperial Patriarch was astonished. In the warrior's world, one's long lifespan was a proof of one's strength.

Felicitous Rain Lord's attitude did not seem to anger Old Man Changsheng.

He took a step forward and with a flash in front of everyone, he sat down beside Felicitous Rain Lord.

"Today is the day for you to recruit a disciple. It's such a big deal that your father is very concerned about it as well." Old Man Changsheng said.

Felicitous Rain Lord did not react towards the word 'father'. He remained looking indifferent as he said, "Those who should and shouldn't have come have come. Let's begin."

"Who is Yi Yun?" Old Man Changsheng looked at the square in front of Star Picking Court.

The warriors that were participating in the assessment were all standing there.

Old Man Changsheng scanned the square before he locked onto a youth.

"Is it him?"

Old Man Changsheng grunted lightly. He could sense that Felicitous Rain Lord thought highly of Yi Yun.

Once Yi Yun became Felicitous Rain Lord's disciple, Yi Yun could slowly climb up while accompanying Felicitous Rain Lord. It would not be impossible for him to get a chance to gain the private teachings of Felicitous Rain Lord—the remnant page of the 'Ten Thousand Fey Divine Canon'. How could such a treasured book fall into the hands of a nameless punk who came from the backwater countryside? It naturally had to be obtained by a disciple from the Immortal Rain Sect!

Just as Yi Yun arrived in the square, he felt like he was being stabbed by needles. He looked up and traced the sensation.

The imposing aura that shrouded him was not hidden at all because Yi Yun could sense it clearly.

He looked at the long-browed elder in Star Picking Court.

"Who the hell is that old man?"

Yi Yun frowned. He did not know who the old man was at all. He felt extremely uncomfortable with the old man's aura shrouding him.

True Martial World - Chapter 978: Ward of Rain

What!?

Felicitous Rain Lord was going to personally preside over the final assessment!?

Upon hearing the news, everyone was astonished.

As a relatively young Divine Lord, it was hard to determine the limits to Felicitous Rain Lord's strength. To the people present, Felicitous Rain Lord was a mighty figure who could really influence the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven, but he was an existence that they were unworthy to look up to.

Now, they had learned that Felicitous Rain Lord was personally presiding over the final assessment, to the point of them being able to see him in person.

The entire Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven had trillions of living creatures, but a million years might not necessarily be enough to produce a Divine Lord. Everyone was excited when they heard the news!

Immediately, everyone in Brocade Spring Court engaged in a flurry of discussion and they were extremely excited.

"That will be all for today. In three days time, on the same spot, Yi Yun... I look forward to your performance."

As Shui Ningshuang spoke, she stood up and glanced at Yi Yun.

Immediately, Yi Yun was once again the focus of attention. The glory gained from being valued highly by a Divine Lord was an extremely enviable matter.

Yi Yun bowed towards Shui Ningshuang. With a flick of her sleeves, Shui Ningshuang disappeared like mist clearing itself. Vanishing along with her was the Door of Misty Rain.

...

After Shui Ningshuang left, tens of thousands of people left Brocade Spring Court. With their departure, the news of a Divine Lord personally assessing prospective disciples spread throughout the Oracle Fey Kingdom like a whirlwind. Immediately after that, the news was spread to the other six countries in the alliance through various means of communication.

Everyone guessed that the reason why Felicitous Rain Lord would personally preside over the assessment was a result of Yi Yun's extremely outstanding performance that caught his eye.

Such treatment pushed Yi Yun and the Luo clan's status to brand new heights. In a few days, there were all sorts of visitors that came to visit Elder Duanmu and Elder Shi's temporary residence.

Because of this, the Luo clan clansmen were extremely delighted.

However, there were also people who were jealous. Song Wuchen could deeply sense that his spot as the number one in-name disciple was facing an unprecedented challenge. Once Yi Yun became an in-name disciple, his good days would probably come to an end.

Other than Song Wuchen, the ones who similarly were upset was the fat and thin duo from the Immortal Rain Sect.

After the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples were heavily injured by Yi Yun, it was arranged for them to live in one of the Oracle Fey Kingdom's temporary imperial palaces. And on that day, the entire palace was covered in thick vapor, which meant that there was very low visibility.

It was a Ward of Rain!

The fat and thin Immortal Rain Sect disciples were shrouded by the Ward of Rain. Their bodies were covered in the condensation of countless water essence.

Rain could nourish the lands and resuscitate thousands of creatures. It could make the world brim with life. It possessed the power of life and it also had excellent effects when it came to healing.

Many people could see the Ward of Rain that shrouded the temporary palace from their own residences.

Song Wuchen cultivated in the laws of water, so he naturally could tell the skill involved in it. He knew that it was an extremely powerful Water Domain.

"The two Immortal Rain Sect disciples are recuperating in the Ward of Rain? However, the Ward of Rain is way too terrifying. Despite such a distance, I can sense my body's energy being influenced by the ward's suppression. This is definitely not something that someone of the younger generation can produce… "

As Song Wuchen muttered to himself, he saw that the Ward of Rain lasted for the rest of the day before it gradually weakened.

During this period, the temporary palace exuded a terrifying pressure. It was suffocating and prevented anyone from approaching it.

The mist was completely dispersed only late into the night. In the palace, there was a white-haired elder who had his back facing the fat and thin Immortal Rain Sect disciples. He was dressed in an azure-colored robe and his white eyebrows reached his shoulders, giving him a lofty and reclusive appearance.

"The two of you were sent to be under Felicitous Rain so as to play the role of being liaisons. But the both of you actually got beaten into such a pathetic state by a junior from a small faction? The both of you really can't bear any major responsibilities!" The white-haired elder said coldly.

The two Immortal Rain Sect disciples were kneeling on a futon. They were previously injured and were barely breathing, but now, they had mostly recovered from their injuries. They just looked slightly pale.

Without a doubt, the Ward of Rain was a product of the white-haired elder. He had personally treated the duo's injuries. Heavy injuries that should have taken months to treat were healed in half a day.

"Grandmaster Uncle, Junior Brother’s and my strength far exceeds that punk’s. We were only careless, causing us to fall for the punk's trickery and ended up in such a miserable state. If it's a competition of strength or Dao Domain, we would completely trash Yi Yun!"

"You still have hopes of competing in Dao Domains? Have you forgotten that when you exited the Door of Misty Rain, you came out without a single herb? According to the rules, the two of you have been eliminated during the second round."

"About that… " The duo's stared at him with widened eyes as they were unsure about an appropriate response. They had been arrogant before. When they entered the Door of Misty Rain, they did not pick a single low-grade herb. And the only six-petal Seven Heart Flower that they picked had been snatched back by Yi Yun. In the end, they left empty-handed. According to the rules, they had failed the assessment.

"Then, what are we to do… ?"

"What else can you do? When it comes to recruiting of a disciple, the final outcome still depends on Felicitous Rain. The both of you had entered the Door of Misty Rain previously, so it means you have met the mark. As for the assessment on the last day, just participate in it as per normal. I will be there as well!"

"Felicitous Rain's status is extraordinary so it's impossible for him to quibble on a trivial matter about the both of you not getting any herbs. It would sully his status." The elder said lightly. When the two of them heard that the elder would accompany them, they immediately felt relieved. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

"Grandmaster Uncle, don't worry. Yi Yun might have defeated the two of us in the Door of Misty Rain, but it was not because of his own strength. Regardless of the content of the final assessment, the both of us will definitely wipe the floor!" The two promised with great certainty.

The elder nodded and turned his head with thoughts on his mind. His old but radiant eyes looked far into the distance.

His gaze penetrated the wall and through the deep stretches of space before it landed on a pavilion in the middle of a lake on a floating island.

In the pavilion, Felicitous Rain Lord was dressed in a white robe as he was pondering over a game of Go.

He was holding a black-and-white piece but he did not respond to the gaze that came from afar, despite detecting it. He only continued with his act of placing a piece.

"Felicitous Rain oh Felicitous Rain, you are still the same… " The white-haired elder said. It was like he was speaking to Felicitous Rain Lord, but it also seemed like he was muttering to himself. "That trivial matter that happened three hundred thousand years ago has let you bear a grudge to this day. You never understood that compared to a sect or the path to the martial peak, that matter is nothing!"

"You have your pride, but this time, the thing that I brought is something that you can't refuse. You will never be able to escape the massive ship that is the Immortal Rain Sect on your ride to the peak. If you want to pursue the supreme peak of martial arts, how far can you go if you do not cooperate with anyone… ?"

True Martial World - Chapter 977: Returning With Herbs

The two Immortal Rain Sect disciples were carried to the towering tree's hall. The Immortal Rain Sect was a lofty existence after all, so the Oracle Fey Kingdom king was not seeking reward. He only wished to act without fault. They were not stingy by using all sorts of good medicine and relics.

The person responsible for the duo's injuries was the Oracle Fey Kingdom's Imperial Perceptor. When he checked the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples' injuries, he was secretly horrified. The duo were in great physical shape and they had very powerful bloodlines. However, they were still heavily injured after being hit by the dragon's tail.

Many of their bones and meridians had been cracked. Curing them needed top healing medicines and treasured relics. The cost would make the Oracle Fey Kingdom feel the pinch.

"That Yi Yun really has endless means. I believed that Yi Yun would definitely suffer greatly when the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples joined forces, but who knew that they would be beaten up into such a state." An Elder said with a tut.

"Any one of the two aren't any weaker than Yi Yun. They were helpless when Yi Yun conjured the worldly power in the Door of Misty Rain. It caused the battle to be on a completely different level. Back then, even I was unable to expect Yi Yun to have such a countermeasure, let alone the duo. It's only normal for them to have suffered."

Typically, no matter how intricate a junior's techniques were, it would not have been able to fool the eyes of the legendary figures, since they were on a completely different level of insight.

However, about Yi Yun's strike in the Door of Misty Rain, the Elders present questioned if they could be able to withstand the attack without suffering as much if they were in the duo's shoes.

After the Oracle Fey Kingdom endured the heartache of spending all the good medicine on the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples till everything was healed, everyone realized that Yi Yun had yet to exit the Door of Misty Rain!

Yi Yun was the only person left inside the Door of Misty Rain and he was still picking herbs.

They had spent about two hours dealing with the Immortal Rain Sect disciples' injuries, but Yi Yun had remained in the Door of Misty Rain for an extended period of time.

The Yuan Qi pressure inside the Door of Misty Rain was extremely high, but Yi Yun had passed through the Seven Heart Flower plantation region, headed for another herb plantation and picked another herb before coming out.

As Yi Yun's figure was covered in the thick mist and people's perception unable to probe further, there was an hour when Yi Yun had completely disappeared before he appeared in the people's vision.

No one knew what he had picked, but they noticed that at the instant that Yi Yun walked into the mist, Shui Ningshuang's eyebrows pricked up. Her expression had changed slightly as well.

Clearly, it meant that the second herb that Yi Yun picked was not ordinary either.

He had obtained two herbs — a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower and an unknown herb.

Outside the Door of Misty Rain, many young warriors were watching in envy. To return with treasured herbs in hand and to showcase his formidable strength in front of the six-country alliance and Felicitous Rain Lord, Yi Yun was no doubt the biggest victor at the recruitment event.

After the Door of Misty Rain's test, the number of people that passed could be counted with one's fingers!

The first round's pass rate was nearly 100%, but the second round's elimination rate was nearly 100%. The stark contrast was quite unacceptable to some people.

When Yi Yun walked out of the Door of Misty Rain, the crowd had automatically separated and carved a path out for him. Even Bear Two and Black Tiger, who previously wanted to trample on Yi Yun, had long hidden in a corner and did not dare to utter a single word. The vastness of the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven as well as a true genius far exceeded their imaginations.

"Fairy Ningshuang, from this Door of Misty Rain assessment, only a few people have cleared it. About the assessments after this, do you think… "

In the towering tree's hall, Elder Duanmu spoke. In fact, his intentions were very clear. Although the second assessment had a few people clearing it, anyone who wasn't blind could tell that Yi Yun was far stronger than the rest!

Elder Duanmu believed that with Yi Yun's outstanding performance, it was already certain that Yi Yun would become the ultimate winner. It was meaningless to continue the competition. After all, could Chi Zhuiyun and Tianya Haoyue pose a threat to Yi Yun?

When Elder Duanmu said those words, even the Oracle Fey Kingdom king was left without being angry, despite feeling rather aggrieved. It was originally Felicitous Rain Lord being indebted to their Imperial Patriarch which resulted in such an event. But in the end, all the benefits were given to Yi Yun from the Luo clan.

Shui Ningshuang smiled gently. Although she knew the meaning behind Elder Duanmu's words, she did not make any comment on it.

And at that moment, Song Wuchen spoke out. He said with a livid expression, "Does the Senior think that there's no need to compete any further? The Door of Misty Rain's test is not a test of strength. Other than some strength which is needed to gain entrance at the beginning, all it tests is luck and the ability to search for herbs inside the Door of Misty Rain."

"Yi Yun being able to find two wondrous herbs must have to do with a particularly special ability of his. For example, if he has the myriad nomological eyes that is recorded in the ancient books, he will be able to see through array formations and allow him to easily do such a thing. It's the same thing with the final strike that defeated the Immortal Rain Sect disciples."

Song Wuchen turned more incensed the more he spoke. After he realized how Yi Yun had stirred the worldly power in the Door of Misty Rain and defeated the Immortal Rain Sect disciples, he was certain that the reason why the Nine Palatial Array had problems was all because of Yi Yun's tampering!

Since Yi Yun could even use a bit of the Door of Misty Rain's array formation, it was obvious that he could easily crack the array Song Wuchen had set up!

Song Wuchen originally believed that this was an opportunity for him to let Felicitous Rain Lord appreciate his performance, but it was destroyed by Yi Yun. This made Song Wuchen hate Yi Yun so much that he wanted to rip him apart.

Now, how could he feel comfortable with Yi Yun standing out heads and above the crowd?

"That's right. Yi Yun's performance in the Door of Misty Rain has nothing much to do with strength." The Oracle Fey Kingdom king, who was beside Song Wuchen, echoed. He still wanted to win a last chance for Chi Zhuiyun.

With the two echoing each other in great harmony, Elder Shi sneered and quipped sarcastically, "I remembered that before the beginning of the assessment, Young Master Wuchen previously said something about the assessment would not be a test of strength? But why has it come to the point where strength is the most important?"

Song Wuchen's expression stiffened when Elder Shi figuratively smacked him in the face right on the spot. He previously knew that Yi Yun's actual combat strength was strong, so he had deliberately not tested actual combat strength, but now he had overturned his own words.

He could only say, "Strength also includes the potential for future development, such as Dao Domains. It is directly correlated to the number and quality of Dao fruits condensed during the Dao Manifestation realm. It is also a measure for a warrior's future development. What Master places the greatest emphasis on is a Dao Domain! If Yi Yun's Dao Domain is mediocre, so what if he is good at herb-picking?"

When Song Wuchen said this, the Oracle Fey Kingdom king turned delighted. Yi Yun had yet to grasp a Dao Domain during his battle with Chi Zhuiyun! And in contrast, Chi Zhuiyun's Dao Domain was his forte!

He stroked his beard and said complacently, "Speaking about Dao Domains, Zhuiyun has made another breakthrough during the past year. He can showcase it to everyone."

Both sides began to engage in a war of words, but Elder Duanmu and Elder Shi naturally did not have much say when it came to Song Wuchen, who was an examiner. They could only look at Shui Ningshuang.

Shui Ningshuang smiled slightly and said, "There's no need for you to argue any further. Master just sent a voice transmission to me. The assessment will be temporarily halted. In three days time, he will personally come to Brocade Spring Court to preside over the final assessment. The outcome will obviously be decided by Master."

True Martial World - Chapter 976: Take mine, snatching it back again

Outside the Door of Misty Rain, there was silence despite there being tens of thousands of people gathered near it. One could even hear a pin drop.

That attack was way too terrifying. Even many of the alliance's Elders in the towering tree's hall were startled. They didn't even have the confidence to withstand the strike head on.

"That is definitely not an attack that a junior at the Heaven Ascension realm can produce. If I'm not wrong, the nine divine dragons is a worldly power that resides in the Door of Misty Rain itself. It's not Yi Yun's attack!" An Elder in the towering tree's hall said.

The others immediately understood what had happened when he said that.

If Yi Yun had used the Door of Misty Rain's worldly power, it was understandable why it was so terrifying.

However, how did Yi Yun manage to accomplish that?

The Door of Misty Rain was a Divine Lord's enchanted artifact!

Just to see through the hidden worldly power in the Door of Misty Rain was already a herculean task, let alone triggering it!

How could Yi Yun have such abilities at the Heaven Ascension realm?

Many people looked at Shui Ningshuang. They could tell that the cold and aloof woman was looking at Yi Yun with uncalm eyes.

No one understood what Yi Yun had done better than her. He had borrowed the momentum of the attack to strike at the Immortal Rain Sect disciples. It was apparent that Yi Yun had discovered the nine dragon spirit roots array hidden deep underground, but it was a miracle for a junior like him to be able to accomplish what he had done.

She felt that she could no longer understand Yi Yun. This was the first time in her long life that a junior had left such an impression on her!

"If it's the energy contained in the Door of Misty Rain, the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples are considered to be lucky to have survived." A sect Elder said as he looked at the ill-lucked fat and thin duo.

"The reason that they survived it is because they were not facing the main attack. They were only struck by the sweep of one of the dragons’ tail." Sitting in a particular corner, Elder Shi explained.

Although Yi Yun had triggered the explosion from the Door of Misty Rain's worldly power, he was unable to guide the direction of its attack. Therefore, the nine divine dragons charged straight for the firmaments, and a large portion of the energy was wasted. Only a dragon's tail had struck the duo, but they were already inflicted with serious injuries from such a simple strike.

"It's good that no one died. If someone had died… the Immortal Rain Sect might not be willing to take things lying down… "

Elder Duanmu heaved a sigh of relief. He was still worried about the Immortal Rain Sect. The Luo clan did not have the courage to face up to a large reclusive sect.

Just as Elder Shi was about to echo him, his eyelids jumped when he saw Yi Yun taking large strides towards Fatty. With a foot, Yi Yun stamped on Fatty's chest.

"Bam!"

Yi Yun's foot was augmented with strength, so it was a heavy stamp!

Fatty was already seriously injured, so even if he could withstand the heavy impact, his ribs were still fractured. His organs were stabbed by the bones fragment, causing blood bubbles to spew out of Fatty's mouth.

"Where's the flower the both of you picked?" Yi Yun asked while his foot rested on Fatty.

Fatty's rotund face twitched. Having come from the Immortal Rain Sect, the figures of the alliance's six factions were only countryside geniuses to him. How could he have ever expected that he would suffer from the ruthless beatings of a countryside genius?

"Do… do you know who I am? I come from the Immortal Rain Sect. The faction backing me is one beyond your imagination. It still won't be too late if you immediately beg for mercy. If you attack me again, you will die a miserable death!" Fatty gnashed his teeth as he threatened Yi Yun. He felt like he was a lofty prince that was being beaten by a villager in the countryside. So how could he not be furious?

"Get me to beg for mercy?" Yi Yun laughed. "It's funny how you are threatening me in your present circumstances. You really do know how to spell the word death!"

All of Yi Yun's energy was infused in his foot as he stamped down again!

"Ka-cha!"

The crisp sound of bones fracturing could be heard. The ground beneath Fatty's body collapsed as his entire body sank into the ground. His sternum was fractured as he was covered in blood.

Upon seeing this scene, the eyelids of the upper echelons in the towering tree's hall twitched.

Fatty's declaration of the Immortal Rain Sect was unable to threaten Yi Yun at all. Yi Yun was truly a ruthless and decisive person.

In fact, Yi Yun had already guessed that Fatty had an impressive background.

He had never heard of the Immortal Rain Sect, but he had a vague guess that it was a faction that surpassed the Luo clan.

It was not the first time that Yi Yun had offended a faction that far exceeded the scope of his strength. Back when he was in the Fire Cloud State, he had similarly beaten Ran Yu from the Ran family clan as well.

Without any mercy, he took off Fatty's interspatial ring, followed by Scrawny's.

"Cha!"

A Sword of the Will appeared in between Yi Yun's eyebrows, afterwhich it shattered the mental imprints that the duo had placed on their respective interspatial rings!

Following that, Yi Yun used his perception to probe the interspatial rings without any obstruction.

To warriors, items in their interspatial ring were considered to be private. For example, there were cultivation techniques, mystic manuals, charms, etc. There were many things that were used as trump cards to protect their lives. There were some opportunities that they had discovered themselves but were not made public. Some of them were not meant for the eyes of others.

Having an interspatial ring ransacked was an absolute humiliation to warriors.

However, the duo was heavily injured, so they were powerless to stop him. They could only watch helplessly as Yi Yun freely searched their interspatial rings. Their eyes, that looked like cracking glass, indicated how much they wanted to rip Yi Yun into pieces.

In such a manner, Yi Yun found the six-petal Seven Heart Flower that Scrawny had previously picked. After that, he nonchalantly found a spot that had rather rich Yuan Qi before planting the flower in it.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone outside the Door of Misty Rain was rendered speechless. Yi Yun did not need the six-petal Seven Heart Flower at all. He had taken the six-petal Seven Heart Flower back only to replant it. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

"Yi Yun! I'll remember you!" Fatty said through clenched teeth. His eyes seemed like they were penetrating Yi Yun.

Yi Yun frowned as killing intent flashed in his heart. He nearly attacked Fatty to finish him, but if he killed Fatty, the Immortal Rain Sect would naturally find fault with him. But if he did not kill Fatty, Fatty would return to Immortal Rain Sect and mobilize his powers to destroy him.

The two outcomes were not too different.

As Yi Yun was pondering about it, a divine beam of light shot into the Door of Misty Rain. It wrapped itself around the fat and thin youths and it dragged them out.

The person responsible for the act was Shui Ningshuang.

After being severely injured by Yi Yun, the duo naturally could not leave the Door of Misty Rain using their own strength.

"Pa! Pa!"

The two Immortal Rain Sect disciples fell heavily in Brocade Spring Court and were looked at by tens of thousands of people.

At that moment, the duo even had thoughts of committing suicide.

Revenge!

He definitely wanted revenge!

Fatty roared in his heart. He had never suffered such an outrage his entire life!

Seeing how the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples were on their last breaths, the Oracle Fey Kingdom king was somewhat troubled. After all, this event that was being held in his territory, the Oracle Fey Kingdom. He could not leave the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples in the lurch.

Besides, it was the Immortal Rain Sect, so he knew that it was wise not to offend it. He had thoughts of establishing good relations with them, so he hurriedly ordered a courtier to treat the duo's wounds.

While doing all of this, the Oracle Fey Kingdom king looked carefully at Shui Ningshuang's expression. He could not grasp the relationship between Felicitous Rain Lord and the Immortal Rain Sect. He guessed that with the Immortal Rain Sect being Felicitous Rain Lord's birthplace, even if their relationship was estranged, it would not be as incompatible as fire and water…

True Martial World - Chapter 975: As Powerful as Lightning

In Yi Yun's eyes, the black rock beneath his feet and the area that he was standing on were extraordinary.

He had previously detected that the small world inside the Door of Misty Rain was divided into several regions. Every region had a large array underpinning it. And the Seven Heart Flowers were growing in one of those regions.

As for the tiny plot of land beneath his feet, it was where the core of the Seven Heart Flower's array was! And deep underground, there was a terrifying source of energy.

Yi Yun had confirmed that the reason why this area appeared remote and had thin Heaven Earth Yuan Qi was due to the massive energy source that was hidden deep underground.

The Heaven Earth Yuan Qi had been condensed into a spirit root, and the nine underground spirit roots were gathered at that point!

Felicitous Rain Lord had used an array to seal the spirit roots and the seal was very robust naturally. But in fact, there was always a tiny bit of energy that would escape. As there were massive amounts of energy in the Door of Misty Rain, even a tiny leak was no trifling matter. Under such circumstances, an enchanted artifact had been specially placed at the gathering point of the spirit roots, so it could seal the diffusing underground energy.

The enchanted artifact was the large, black rock. In fact, it was not a black rock... it was a huge seal.

And beneath the large seal was a herb!

The herb was extraordinary. It had vast amounts of energy that caused the surrounding space to distort. It created a small, independent isolated space.

Yi Yun's stop here lasted for nearly an hour, but he did not seem to have any intentions of leaving.

"What's the punk trying to do? Is he deliberately trying to act mysterious?"

Another fifteen minutes passed, but Yi Yun remained at the same spot. The fat and thin Immortal Rain Sect disciples were already running out of patience.

"Senior Brother, is it possible that the punk has run out of luck? Was the six-petal Seven Heart Flower that he found before just a result of good luck?" Scrawny transmitted his voice to Fatty.

Fatty was still grinning, giving him a kind and amiable look. He shook his head and said, "It can't be a coincidence that the first thing that he found in such a remote area was a six-petal Seven Heart Flower. He must have some unique method. As for now… "

A brilliant flash glimmered in Fatty's eyes as he looked at Yi Yun and said, "I know you are waiting for an opportunity to attack the both of us. However, I advise you to hold that thought. If not, your outcome can only be described as tragic."

"In addition, I'm advising you to withdraw from Felicitous Rain Lord's disciple recruitment. This is not something that you can encroach on. Be careful about losing your life after being embroiled in it."

Fatty's second sentence was said with a Yuan Qi voice transmission and it was filled with subtext.

Yi Yun's eyebrows pricked up. The fatty sounded like he had quite a backing.

However, Yi Yun ignored the fatty's background. He couldn't even be bothered because he did things as he pleased. He was not one to abide by the wishes of others.

"Are you saying that I'm waiting for an opportunity to attack the both of you? It seems like you think too highly of yourself. Don't you want to try digging for herbs? Then keep waiting."

Yi Yun's voice sounded indolent. But just as he finished his sentence, the Yuan Qi in his body suddenly surged. It was like a lazy lion that had suddenly stirred!

Oh?

The two Immortal Rain Sect disciples immediately turned vigilant. They nearly attacked Yi Yun.

But at that moment, all of Yi Yun's energy sank. Open!

Boom!

The black rock beneath Yi Yun's feet was forcefully moved away by him!

With the black seal being released, energy surged out. The tiny sealed space beneath the black seal had also been cracked open by Yi Yun!

A resplendent light that resembled a divine rainbow shone out, dazzling everyone's eyes.

Amid the divine light, a flower about half the height of a human bloomed. It had a large, beaming corolla with seven petals surrounding it. It looked gorgeous.

A ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower!

Everyone was astounded. It was truly a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower!

Yi Yun had nonchalantly found a six-petal Seven Heart Flower previously, and now, he had managed to find a perfect seven-petal ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower!

It was likely that this was the only ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower that resided in the Door of Misty Rain. Yet, it had been found by Yi Yun. How did he do it?

The bold declaration that Yi Yun made about picking a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower had been seen as an overestimation of himself, but he had really accomplished what he had set out to do!

A divine flower brought with it an irrepressible allure as it attracted the eyes of everyone.

It included the two disciples of the Immortal Rain Sect.

Their eyes lit up and in them, there was only greed.

"Great! Great! It's really a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower. Haha, you did well!" Fatty said to Yi Yun.

Once he had the ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower in his possession, the Dao fruit that he condensed would be enhanced. He would be able to gain more resources from the Immortal Rain Sect!

Yi Yun looked at Fatty as he revealed a cold smile.

Fatty walked towards Yi Yun as his body began to rumble. "I previously told you that certain things are not meant for you to encroach on. It seems that it didn't get into your mind. Do you think that becoming Felicitous Rain Lord's in-name disciple will allow you to skyrocket? How naive!"

"Didn't you realize? There is only one rule for the herb-picking in the Door of Misty Rain. It is only about taking the herb out of the Door of Misty Rain, but there is no restriction on the methods."

"Then, using force to snatch is also permissible!"

Even after Fatty said this, the smile on his face remained. But now, his smile gave people chills.

As Fatty walked towards Yi Yun, Scrawny pulled out a sword from his interspatial ring.

The sword was soft like a poisonous snake's tongue. It was completely blue in color, like it was immersed in poison. And Scrawny seemed to give people a sickly feeling, like he was a poisonous snake himself.

Fatty with his tremendous Yuan Qi was accompanied by Scrawny, who had a strange aura and vicious techniques!

The two of them came from a seclusive sect and their cultivation levels were higher than Yi Yun's. Their offensive power was obvious!

"Yi Yun, be careful!"

Elder Duanmu and Elder Shi turned anxious. Even though they knew that Yi Yun's strength was extraordinary, it was impossible for him to withstand the combined attacks of the duo!

Any one of the two could be even stronger than Chi Zhuiyun. And back when Yi Yun defeated Chi Zhuiyun, he had only barely won!

At that moment, Fatty moved!

Although he was fat, his attack was like a tribulation coming down from the heavens. The momentum that he had was boundless!

Rain of Annihilation!

At the instant Fatty attacked, dark clouds rolled and shrouded the heaven and earth with endless pouring rain. It was like a lake had burst in the nine heavens, sending endless water to rain down in torrents!

In the rain water, every drop of rain was imprinted with nomological runes and each drop was tremendously powerful!

Elder Shi's expression changed. This was a supreme technique of the Immortal Rain Sect and its power was not something that any Luo clan cultivation technique could compare with! Fatty's strength was extremely formidable. It was not apparent from before, but the moment he made his move, it caused the world to take on another color!

"A seclusive clan's mystic technique is indeed powerful." Unlike Elder Shi, Song Wuchen's eyes were filled with excitement. The strike would leave Yi Yun severely injured even if he did not die!

And when Fatty used the Rain of Annihilation, Scrawny attacked as well. He slashed out with his sword, causing a blue sword beam to tear through the void. Like a wyrm that rolled in the rain, it charged at Yi Yun!

The combined strength of the duo had a massive stance that seemed indomitable!

Yi Yun's heart tightened when he saw such a terrifying attack. It was not to be underestimated. The fat and thin duo had extraordinary strength. The combined power of their strikes was probably enough to kill any Dao Manifestation realm genius.

Even Yi Yun found it extremely taxing to withstand the combined forces of the duo.

As Yi Yun saw how the blue sword beams and the endless Rain of Annihilation were enveloping him, all of his Yuan Qi surged out. However, the Yuan Qi was not directed at the two Immortal Rain Sect disciples, it was directed at the ground beneath him!

Yi Yun's Yuan Qi released a rumbling roar deep underground. That strike of his had stirred the spirit roots in the ground!

Previously, Yi Yun had moved the black seal which loosened the array formation that was suppressing the spirit roots. Now, with a concentrated strike from Yi Yun, together with the Purple Crystal being a conduit, it finally stirred the sleeping nine spirit roots underground!

Buzz!

The ground shook violently as the land and mountains shook. At the instant that the Rain of Annihilation was about to land, the nine spirit root energy underground blasted out like a volcano's eruption!

Although the energy was only a tiny percentage of the overall energy that the spirit roots possessed, it was as terrifying as a judgment from heaven!

Such an oppression burst through the Door of Misty Rain and into Brocade Spring Court. The legendary figures from various factions in the towering tree's hall had drastic changes in expression. It was impossible for a junior to have such domineering power!

"Back! Get back!"

All the assessees that were gathered in front of the Door of Misty Rain exclaimed as they retreated. Ignoring the attack itself, just the terrifying pressure was something that prevented them from standing in front of the Door of Misty Rain!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Nine twirling dragons ascended into the heavens as they met the Rain of Annihilation and the blue sword beams!

On one side, it was the combined attack of two junior disciples, while on the other side, it was a worldly power that had gathered in the Door of Misty Rain for thousands, if not tens of thousands of years. How could the two sides be compared?

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed like multiple thunderclaps roared in the sky. The blue sword beam was shattered immediately, while the Rain of Annihilation was swept clean. The gloomy clouds in the sky were blown away, leaving nothing behind!

What!?

The two Immortal Rain Sect disciples stared with widened eyes as they found it unbelievable!

What was Yi Yun's attack? How could it be so powerful!? Ignoring the fact that he was only a Heaven Ascension realm junior, even sect Elders would not be able to produce an attack that possessed that much power!

Their assured combined attack was like withered leaves and dead twigs in front of the nine dragons. They were obliterated!

The explosion from the impact happened too quickly. The two were unable to react in time as their bodies were swept away by the tail of one of the dragons!

'"Puah!"

Fatty's body was like a blood bag that had just burst. A large mouthful of blood spewed out of his mouth like a fountain. As for Scrawny, his body was sent flying like a tiny chick. Numerous bones in his body fractured and his body was covered in injuries. His body was mangled and it could not be any worse!

"Peng!"

"Peng!"

With two loud thuds, the two crashed onto the ground heavily. Blood splattered on the ground, dyeing the scattered rocks red.

Scrawny heaved in pain while Fatty endured the pain of his bones stabbing into his flesh. He could no longer maintain the smile on his face and instead, he looked dazedly at the aftershocks of the energy explosion in the sky. His face was filled with an incredulous look.

No, it's impossible. It was impossible for Yi Yun to produce such an attack. What the hell just happened!?

True Martial World - Chapter 974: Origins of the Duo

The fat and thin duo, who had unknown origin, were like wolves as they followed Yi Yun, like they had caught the scent of fresh meat.

People began to realize that although their actions were despicable and shameless, their strength was in no way inferior. Inside the Door of Misty Rain, there was resistance everywhere, but their limbs were nimble and they moved like flowing water. It was like they were accustomed to the environment in the Door of Misty Rain, which gave them plenty of energy to spare.

Just this point alone made them stronger than Tianya Haoyue!

"Where did those two people sprout out from?"

Everyone was astonished. Other than the six-country alliance, there were indeed uncountable large factions in the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven. However, true top geniuses were not easily obtained commodities. If Tianya Haoyue were to leave the six-country alliance and go to another faction, he would definitely be treasured as a talent by the seniors there. However, he turned out to be the worse when placed in the Door of Misty Rain. The fat and thin duo didn't look particularly impressive, but their talent was actually that high?

Those from the World Margin Sect were the ones who had suffered the greatest setback. The strongest member of their sect's younger generation was so easily surpassed by two random people?

"Fairy Ningshuang, who are those two… ?"

In the towering tree's hall, a internal Elder of the World Margin Sect could not help but ask.

From Fairy Ningshuang's previous expression, it was quite certain that she knew about their origins. The World Margin Sect did not care about it previously, but just moments ago, they had snatched the flower from Tianya Haoyue and they had completely exceeded Tianya Haoyue. He could no longer sit still.

Fairy Ningshuang frowned slightly as she seemed to recall some unpleasant memories.

People were curious about the fat and thin duo's faction that they originated from. Was it Felicitous Rain Lord's rival? How could disciples of a rival dare to participate in Felicitous Rain Lord's in-name disciple recruitment? Wouldn't it be courting death!?

After a long silence, Fairy Ningshuang said, "I previously noticed their cultivation techniques, so they most likely come from the Immortal Rain Sect. It's Master's sect."

"Immortal Rain Sect? Felicitous Rain Lord's sect?" Everyone was astonished!

Felicitous Rain Lord had never established a sect or Fey country that belonged to him. Could it be that the Immortal Rain Sect was a sect that Felicitous Rain Lord came from before he became a Divine Lord?

"Immortal Rain Sect? Pardon this old man's ignorance, but I have never heard of it." The World Margin Sect's Elder said.

"The Immortal Rain Sect is a seclusive sect, so it is normal if none of you have heard of it. The Immortal Rain Sect was the sect that Master grew up in. Master is the son of the Immortal Rain Sect's Sect Leader. But now, the Immortal Rain Sect no longer has any ties with Master."

Shui Ningshuang did not plan on speaking much about it. In fact, Felicitous Rain Lord's talent was not considered to be great in his youth. The competition in the Immortal Rain Sect was intense, so even the Immortal Rain Sect's Sect Leader's son would be ostracized if his talent was inadequate.

To be born from a seclusive sect and also be the son of the Sect Leader did not necessarily mean it was a good thing. Mighty martial figures had extremely long lifespans. They had several male offspring and many of the bastard male offspring had no status. Under such circumstances, the familial ties between father and son were extremely lukewarm. If a child did not have talent, their deaths did not mean much.

Felicitous Rain Lord never had much feelings for the Immortal Rain Sect, and due to later sequences of events, it caused Felicitous Rain Lord and the Immortal Rain Sect to increasingly become estranged with each other.

As a large sect, the Immortal Rain Sect did things in a cold and ruthless manner. Because of one final matter, it caused the relationship between Felicitous Rain Lord and the Immortal Rain Sect to completely break down. From that moment on, Felicitous Rain Lord had nothing to do with the Immortal Rain Sect.

"Oh, so there was such deep origins!" Although Shui Ningshuang did not say much, most of the important figures in the hall had various guesses in their minds.

Felicitous Rain Lord had begun traveling around the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven very early on. It was likely for him to have left the Immortal Rain Sect by then. However, the Immortal Rain Sect probably never expected for Felicitous Rain Lord to slowly mature into a Divine Lord after he severed connections with it!

No matter how powerful the Immortal Rain Sect was, a Divine Lord was definitely an absolute mainstay that they needed. So how could they not regret? Furthermore, Felicitous Rain Lord also had the remnant page of the 'Ten Thousand Fey Divine Canon' in his possession!

Unfortunately, it was already extremely difficult for the Immortal Rain Sect to mend their relations with Felicitous Rain Lord after he became a Divine Lord.

Without needing Shui Ningshuang to elaborate further, people had guesses of what happened later.

The Immortal Rain Sect probably always had the intentions of getting Felicitous Rain Lord back into the Immortal Rain Sect. Unfortunately, how could a proud maverick like Felicitous Rain Lord agree to it?

"No wonder. The news of Felicitous Rain Lord's recruitment of in-name disciples was only proliferated in the alliance. It was unexpected that there would be outsiders coming here. But if it's the Immortal Rain Sect that constantly pays attention to Felicitous Rain Lord, it would not be strange." The Oracle Fey Kingdom king muttered to himself.

He naturally did not like the fat and thin Immortal Rain Sect disciples. However, the Immortal Rain Sect was the birthplace of Felicitous Rain Lord after all. On account of them raising him in his youth, Felicitous Rain Lord would not negatively deal with the two juniors. However, it was unlikely he would take them in as in-name disciples.

"The Immortal Rain Sect must have cultivated some rain laws. It's no wonder that I find that the two of them can move so freely in the Door of Misty Rain. The environment of the Door of Misty Rain probably suits their cultivation the best." Another Elder of a large faction said.

"Not only that. They are about to condense their Dao fruits. Their cultivation levels are higher than Yi Yun's!"

They were disciples of a seclusive sect and they specialized in rain laws. Inside the Door of Misty Rain, they were like fish meeting water. Under such circumstances, they had a lot more advantages than Yi Yun!

And now, Yi Yun was searching for the herbs, but they were following him leisurely. They conserved their energy and waited for Yi Yun to turn weary!

They would stroll over briskly and search only when Yi Yun began searching certain spots.

Such actions were really annoying.

Yi Yun obviously could not hear the discussion in the towering tree's hall. Yi Yun did not know about the duo's strength and origins. Without the proper information, Yi Yun was facing quite an adverse situation.

Elder Duanmu and Elder Shi, who were from the Luo clan, felt a little anxious.

"A six-petal Seven Heart Flower is already not bad. Back when he saw it, he should have picked it. Could it be that up to now, Yi Yun still plans to pick a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower?" Elder Shi muttered to himself anxiously.

But as the person involved, Yi Yun remained completely unaware as he continued to search for herbs.

The corners of Song Wuchen's mouth gradually curled up. Although he did not like the fat and thin duo that suddenly appeared, he would be delighted if they were able to cause Yi Yun to suffer a setback. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

And at that moment, Yi Yun came to a stop. He stood on the spot for a long period of time.

The region that Yi Yun was standing in did not look special. Beside him, there was a ring of fragmented rock. But beneath Yi Yun's feet, there was a black rock about one meter in diameter. The black rock looked heavy and unremarkable.

Song Wuchen's brows pricked up slightly. He was not too concerned because he believed that Yi Yun would leave after a while. However, he never expected Yi Yun to constantly circle the black rock, like he was probing something. Yi Yun had done that for thirty minutes.

True Martial World - Chapter 973: Reaping the spoils without lifting a finger

What… just happened?

As the crowd watched Yi Yun walk further, with no intention to pick the six-petal Seven Heart Flower, they were left flabbergasted.

To roll a rock away in such a remote area and find a six-petal Seven Heart Flower by chance was already unbelievable, but Yi Yun kicked the rock back and walked away. It rendered the crowd speechless.

Did it mean that... Yi Yun had no interest in the six-petal Seven Heart Flower?

Although Yi Yun had previously declared his intentions of picking a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower, the facts were laid out when the assessment began. It was difficult to take even a single step in the Divine Lord herb garden. The spectators already found Yi Yun's discovery of a six-petal Seven Heart Flower amazing, but he still planned on looking for a seven-petal Seven Heart Flower.

The others spent all day searching, but the flowers that they were overjoyed to find were inferior to what Yi Yun had just discarded. The contrast was disheartening.

At that moment, Yi Yun had continued searching for the next Seven Heart Flower.

Yi Yun also found it somewhat regretful to abandon a six-petal Seven Heart Flower. Previously, he had only sensed that there was a great deal of pure Heaven Earth Yuan Qi gathered at that spot, but he was unable to tell the quality of the Seven Heart Flower. He could only disperse the mist and take a look. But unfortunately, it was not the seven-petal Seven Heart Flower that Yi Yun wanted to find.

It wasn't true that Yi Yun thought lowly of the six-petal Seven Heart Flower. A herb of that quality was one that Yi Yun would love to have more of. It was best if he could pick a basketful of it and return fully loaded.

However, Yi Yun had asked Shui Ningshuang previously and she had said that Yi Yun was only allowed to take one of each herbal strain.

Yi Yun wanted a ten-thousand-year-old Seven Heart Flower, so he could only abandon a six-petal Seven Heart Flower.

And when Yi Yun left the area, Tianya Haoyue, who was still quite a distance away from Yi Yun, suddenly turned his gaze over and tried his best to wade towards Yi Yun's area.

His motive could not be any clearer. He wanted the six-petal Seven Heart Flower that Yi Yun had just discarded.

He wanted what Yi Yun didn't!

At that moment, dignity was apparently not as pragmatic as an immediate benefit. Getting a six-petal Seven Heart Flower was most important.

Not only would obtaining a six-petal Seven Heart Flower make his results for the assessment better, it would also aid his condensation of a Dao fruit greatly.

The spectators saw how Tianya Haoyue was like a fish stranded in a mud pool and moving forward bit by bit with great effort.

"That Tianya Haoyue is so shameless!"

"What a good for nothing to pick up something that someone abandoned. Is that even considered an achievement?"

Outside the Door of Misty Rain, there were sounds of protests. The protests came from the Oracle Fey Kingdom and the Luo clan.

The Luo clan clansmen obviously did not wish for the fruit of Yi Yun's labor to be stolen by others. Even if Yi Yun doesn't want it, it's the same. Why should it be given to you?

As for the people from the Oracle Fey Kingdom, they were frustrated that the quasi six-petal Seven Heart Flower that Chi Zhuiyun found through his own efforts would be worse than the one that Tianya Haoyue picked through his shamelessness.

However, despite all the protests, Shui Ningshuang, who was standing in the towering tree's hall, did not say anything. Clearly, she was tacitly allowing the outcome to be counted as results of the assessments.

In fact, Shui Ningshuang had been watching Yi Yun with interest. She was looking forward to Yi Yun giving her even more pleasant surprises.

Others may not know, but as the supervisor of the Door of Misty Rain, Shui Ningshuang obviously knew that the area that Yi Yun was walking in had an array set up specially by Felicitous Rain Lord. In this area, the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi was directed down into the ground as nine spirit roots. They were like nine dragons surrounding a pearl, with the herbs in the middle being given the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi that they needed to grow.

And it was because of this reason that made the region appear thin in Heaven Earth Yuan Qi. It had been extracted by the spirit roots.

It was clearly not a coincidence that Yi Yun would come here. He had definitely discovered something.

It was truly interesting.

Since Shui Ningshuang did not stop Tianya Haoyue, it was pointless to grumble any further. They watched helplessly as Tianya Haoyue 'squirmed' in great difficulty towards the remote area. And just as he was about to successfully pick the six-petal Seven Heart Flower, a thin youth suddenly appeared from Tianya Haoyue's side at a much faster speed. It was one of the mysterious youths of the fat and thin duo.

The person walked straight to where the six-petal Seven Heart Flower was and flipped the rock.

What?

Everyone was incensed. The duo had been loitering in front of the Door of Misty Rain's entrance, so no one had paid any attention to them. But now, the thin youth had suddenly appeared to pick the six-petal Seven Heart Flower.

They did not spend any effort while others were searching, so they had conserved a lot of their stamina. Now, they suddenly jumped out to to get something for the cheap. Such a despicable act was more disgusting than Tianya Haoyue's actions.

"There was really no effort wasted to search for it!" The thin youth muttered to himself as he plucked the Seven Heart Flower.

"Got it. It's really a good herb!" The thin youth said as he looked at Yi Yun. The corners of his mouth curled upwards as a mocking look suffused in his eyes. Could you be any dumber to give a six-petal Seven Heart Flower that you painstakingly found away?

"Thanks!" The thin youth said, causing Yi Yun to turn back and look at the thin youth.

"So, he is taking me for a ride." Yi Yun stroked his chin. He had looked in the wrong spot and happened to find a six-petal Seven Heart Flower. Since he could not take it away, he could only helplessly leave it in its original spot. But now, not only had someone taken the fruits of his labor, he had been taken as a fool. This displeased Yi Yun.

And at that moment, the fat youth also slowly walked over.

He smiled and with his butt chins, he looked rather kind.

The fat and thin duo began to tail Yi Yun at an appropriate distance. Now, wherever Yi Yun went, they would follow.

It was apparent that after tasting certain benefits, they were clearly just waiting for Yi Yun to find herbs for them to reap the spoils without lifting a finger.

"Fuck, what shameless people!"

Outside the Door of Misty Rain, there were loud protests. It was not even limited to the Luo clan, even people from the other factions in the alliance could not stand seeing this.

"To think that such a precious flower fell into the hands of those two wretches. Feeding it to the dogs would be better!" An agitated Luo clan disciples cursed.

He wished that he could charge inside the Door of Misty Rain and beat the duo brutally.

The duo turned a deaf ear to the invectives and protests outside the Door of Misty Rain.

The fat youth looked at Yi Yun with a beaming smile. Yi Yun had stopped for quite a while.

"Why did you stop? My brother already has a six-petal Seven Heart Flower, but I don't. Why don't you give me the next one that you find?" The fat youth said with a grin.

The tone that he used only tempted others into giving him two hard slaps.

Yi Yun pinched the tip of his nose and said with a smile, "Sure."
