My Master Knows It All

In the distance, Immortal Lord Shuang Ji was momentarily stunned. What was going on with that human cultivator? Despite being warned, why did he still jump down?

As Xiang Ziyu plunged into the water, he immediately felt as though an enormous yin-yang vortex was swirling beneath his feet, attempting to suck him into its depths.

Almost instinctively, he gathered his Yin Yang Qi at once, sensing the direction of the vortex’s spin and manipulating his own qi to rotate in the opposite direction.

However, despite his efforts, the strength of the yin-yang vortex below did not diminish; it even began to grow stronger.

Soon, he felt his body being uncontrollably drawn downwards.

From afar, seeing the situation, Immortal Lord Shuang Ji shouted in a loud voice, ”Do not release any immortal qi, especially Yin Yang Qi! The more Yin Yang Qi you release, the faster you’ll sink! Stop releasing it, and you’ll slowly float back up.

Do not venture below the water surface; you’ll die if you do!”

It seemed like Xiang Ziyu hadn’t heard the warning and continued to emit Yin Yang Qi.

In the next instant, his entire body sank into the river.

On the shore, Vast Universe Immortal Monarch turned his head, looking at Immortal Lord Chi Yan with a peculiar expression, as if asking with his eyes, ”Are you sure this is truly Xiang Ziyu, the disciple of the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader?”

Is this what you call extreme confidence, not arrogance?

Seeing him sinking into the Yin Yang River, they were naturally worried, yet they were utterly helpless.

Were they to enter the Yin Yang River, their fate would be the same—trapped inside.

After Xiang Ziyu fell into the water, he felt the surging Yin Yang Qi around him, his expression turning strangely peculiar. The energies intertwined, forming a pull that dragged everything in the water toward the vortex.

And the solution to unravel this Yin Yang Qi was indeed straightforward.

The method lay in their previous test, simply by emulating the last trial, separating the Yin Yang Qi to create a balance, which would naturally generate a repulsive force.

Originally, the yin and yang energies entwined, forming a suction force that made it impossible for anything in the Yin Yang River to leave, eventually being pulled into the vortex.

But by causing the Yin Yang Qi to repel each other, no attraction would be generated.

Now, he even felt that traversing this Yin Yang River was simpler than the prior challenge.

In the depths of the Yin Yang River, a beast with its body entirely submerged and only a massive, hippopotamus-like head visible, upon seeing what transpired ahead, burst into mocking laughter, ”Shuangji, I’ve met fools before, but none so foolish as this. Are all you humans this idiotic?”

As soon as he finished speaking, laughter erupted among the surrounding alien race cultivators, and a member of the Prison Clan shouted spiritedly, ”Everyone, don’t laugh at him. Maybe you don’t know, but my foot’s been itching lately, so perhaps that human cultivator is coming over to lick it and relieve the itch.”

The laughter exploded louder in response.

Rage filled Immortal Lord Shuang Ji’s eyes as he retorted coldly, ”Damn it, how dare they insult our Human Clan this way!”

Yet the Prison Clan member showed no fear and even taunted, ”I’m insulting your Human Clan, so what? If you’re so offended, why won’t you make a move?”

The expression on Immortal Lord Shuang Ji’s face grew darker. Truly, he didn’t dare act. Here in the Yin Yang River, any action would increase the vortex’s suction, pulling him beneath the water.

Moreover, any spell cast would be immediately absorbed by the river’s force.

Though Immortal Lord Shuang Ji refrained from acting, onshore, Immortal Lord Yun Huo, fuming with rage, prepared to unleash her wrath. A series of immortal palaces manifested behind her, as flames burst forth from within her body.

Suddenly, out from the river came Shuang Ji’s full of urgency voice, ”Don’t attack. Should you cause any disturbance, the river’s force will also pull you under.”

The Prison Clan responded, laughing even more arrogantly, ”Wouldn’t it be better to drag her into the water? It would relax me.”

”You vile creature!” Immortal Lord Yun Huo had never suffered such humiliation from another cultivator, prompting those around to rush forward to restrain her, fearing she’d lose control.

The Prison Clan member, witnessing this, laughed even more disparagingly.

But as he laughed, his voice suddenly halted, his laughter frozen on his face as his body began descending rapidly, as though grabbed by something, pulling him under.

Moreover, it seemed like it was a human’s hand.

”Since you love the underwater so much, why not stay there?”

Xiang Ziyu dragged the Prison Clan member underwater and then burst out from beneath the surface.

The surrounding cultivators were stunned, eyes widening in disbelief at this sudden emergence. How could this human swim up from below?

Besides, those who had ventured in earlier had seen how two peak True Immortal experts, upon reaching the riverbed, became mere floating corpses.

Going under the surface meant certain death. Yet this human cultivator, not only survived but swam such a great distance in such a short time.

In the water, even advancing one foot was a tremendous challenge due to the influence of the yin-yang energy, yet they stood a thousand feet away from where the human had entered!

Xiang Ziyu gazed around, his glance settling on Immortal Lord Shuang Ji, and inquired, ”I’m heading over, will you join us?”

”Huh?” Immortal Lord Shuang Ji, a peak True Immortal, was as if seeing an Immortal for the first time, momentarily stunned, unsure how to respond.

After all, he had spent three days within this water formed from Yin Yang Qi, progressing so little. It showed just how strenuous it was.

Yet here, this human not only intended to pass through but mentioned it so lightly, proposing to take him along.

How could they leave together?

Xiang Ziyu looked at the perplexed cultivator and said exasperatedly, ”What’s with the ’huh’? Do you plan to stay stuck in this river, relying only on yourself?”

This time, Immortal Lord Shuang Ji collected himself and responded in a low voice, ”Naturally, I wish to leave, but how...how can I?”

”Just follow me,” Xiang Ziyu gestured lightly, wafting the water in front of Immortal Lord Wu Ji. Instantly, a surge of Yin Yang Qi emerged, and abruptly, the overwhelming pull felt since he entered the Yin Yang River vanished.

He moved instinctively, and his body appeared right next to Xiang Ziyu.
