Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

As the unlucky one, Liu Zongyuan was dragged into the vortex by a puppet, and then pulled deep into the sea.

Dizzied and disoriented, he barely managed to escape in a bedraggled state, only to surface and find that the battle above had just concluded.

Gu Feng and the doctor had ultimately lost half their power, and their speed was greatly diminished. With eighteen Cyan Dragons attacking from all sides, there was no way to avoid it.

The two tried to resist, but the Cyan Dragons instantly transformed into flames, scorching half the sky red, and in no time had roasted the pair until they looked like charred black coals.

On that very deserted island, Han Yu stood over two half-dead guys, along with a soaking wet Liu Zongyuan.

Is that all?

Even now, Liu Zongyuan was somewhat dumbfounded. No wonder he was surprised. Counting these two, the ten from Yama Hall had all been defeated by him.

Just over a month ago, this guy needed his rescue, and now he’s this formidable?

”I feel like my centuries of life have gone to the dogs.”

Even if it were a dog, it should have become a spirit after so many years, or else he’s lived less than a dog.

Liu Zongyuan mourned in silence, truly dispirited by the blow.

Perhaps only those genius cultivators of the Central Continent could understand and empathize with this feeling.

After all, this guy in front couldn’t even make it onto the so-called Celestial Pride List. If he did, everyone on it might die of shame.

”Why not kill them?”

Liu Zongyuan looked at the half-dead Gu Feng and the doctor, unable to comprehend his actions.

”Waiting to exchange for rewards!”

One guy from Yama Hall could exchange for thirty years of Qi Fortune, so two were equivalent to sixty years of Qi Fortune.

Quan Xiaotong probably regretted setting the price so high; otherwise, he wouldn’t be in debt now.

After all, he couldn’t have imagined Han Yu being so formidable.

The Artifact Spirit, however, saw through it, ”I suspect sending them over will only add more debt to the Quan family’s tab, and you’ll get nothing.”

”No problem, once there are too many debts, it’s not a worry.”

Han Yu was indifferent. After all, the family’s reputation wasn’t bad, and having an IOU was better than nothing.

Gu Feng, still in a daze, suddenly felt a chill in his heart, and the next moment, as his vision blurred, a sense of dread welled up. All his powers seemed to be leaving him...

...

Xin Zui and the two others were inexplicably angry enough to curse, damn it.

The ones they were cursing, of course, were Gu Feng and the doctor—those shameless guys went chasing after a nobody.

Especially that doctor bastard; leaving was one thing, but he even took the puppet with him.

Normally, Xin Zui and the rest wouldn’t need the two’s support, but this time, they’d had half their power forcibly taken.

Even though they were cultivators who had Entered the Dao, having their power pulled below that level and losing their extraordinary abilities could really have them fall to the eleven-man siege.

But, things were still far from looking good.

Xin Zui’s Light Fixing Skill, though it evolved into the Profound Light Spell, had its power reduced to less than that of the Light Fixing Skill due to the efficiency limits. Whenever they restrained one person, the Celestial Dao Sect cultivators would unite to break free.

Xinyin’s Star-Extracting Hand evolved to the Heaven-Flipping Palm, yet the lack of sufficient power caused it to fail to bring expected results, especially with the Celestial Dao Sect’s eleven-man teamwork; it could not budge the opponent.

Wuyin cursed because his Sound Domain evolved into an Illusory Domain that barely held up to the prior effect, constrained by inadequate power, as all his setups for killer moves were neutralized.

Needless to say, the trio was fuming, feeling more humiliated by these ants confronting them than by being killed outright.

Unanimously, the trio simultaneously conjured up a hateful face in their minds—damn it.

If it weren’t for Han Yu, how could they have ended up like this?

Bastard!

”Bastard!”

Similarly, on the other battlefield, someone else was cursing, except the tables had turned, and the ones cursing were from the Celestial Dao Sect’s strong side.

Su Xiaoxiao was quite frustrated because he was having a tough time.

Several times, perfect chances presented themselves to severely hurt the opponent, yet Lei Wang dodged narrowly each time.

Lei Wang’s ability was electrokinesis, actuating as lightning, fast like light. His attacks struck like rolls of thunder, agile and dodgy as lightning, able to fight and evade, making him Su Xiaoxiao’s nemesis.

Not giving up, Su Xiaoxiao thrust himself into astral space, conjuring hundreds of stars, each massive as a mountain, embodying Sword Intent. In an instant, as if plucking stars, he targeted one and fiercely hurled it at Lei Wang.

On Lei Wang’s side, thunder arcs amassed densely, forming a Thunder Sea in which he weaved endlessly. The stars couldn’t even graze his clothes.

”Does hiding like this not embarrass you? I miss your previous audacious attitude.”

Su Xiaoxiao attempted to provoke him, scoffing.

But Lei Wang remained unmoved; he wasn’t a fool. A head-on clash would inevitably harm him. He learned his lesson from his impulsive youth, which once cost him all limbs and nearly his life.

He certainly wouldn’t make the same mistake twice.

Realizing that verbal provocation failed, Su Xiaoxiao resumed launching wide-range assaults.

Elsewhere, other combatants on both sides reciprocated furious exchanges, with the entire sea domain literally being overturned by the ferocity of the fight!

As the situation escalated, an ominous premonition grew within Su Xiaoxiao.

He couldn’t name it, but a gut feeling told him it wasn’t good.

Simultaneously, peculiar changes were occurring in a palace somewhere at sea.

A celestial ray of light beamed down, and within mere moments, shadows continuously emerged from the palace, totaling eighteen figures.

Unhesitatingly, these figures darted off toward the Central Continent...

...

Concerning Han Yu, while Liu Zongyuan stood shocked, he dug out two new pits.

For some reason, lately, it seemed everyone enjoyed burying things.

The Celestial Dao Sect just dug two here, so Han Yu, not being left behind, dug two more.

Gu Feng and the doctor, now thoroughly awake, couldn’t hide their unspeakable terror.

Just moments ago, all their powers were mysteriously being stripped away, so now only the physical prowess of Divine Platform Realm cultivators remained, everything else having gone to waste.

More terrifyingly, it was clear that the opponent had no intention of stopping. After breaking their limbs, he intended to bury them alive!

Were Central Continent cultivators always so ruthless in their revenge?

”Burying them alive like this could kill them.”

Liu Zongyuan slightly twitched his mouth before speaking.

Even with their physical bodies intact, without their power, they’d suffocate being buried alive like this.

What?

Han Yu scratched his head, thinking keeping their bodies intact would mean they’d last a while buried alive.

After all, souls were buried this way, weren’t they?

”A soul isn’t considered a person anymore; it’s similar to a sentient Spiritual Treasure.”

Since it’s not a person, how could it suffocate?

Liu Zongyuan sighed, thinking Han Yu was sometimes a mighty strongman but other times a bumpkin unfamiliar with the world.

If Han Yu hadn’t mentioned exchanging these two for rewards, Liu Zongyuan would think he intended to cruelly kill them.

After all, these are Divine Platform Realm cultivators who probably never imagined they’d encounter such a nemesis in their lifetime...

In the end, Han Yu had no choice but to assault Gu Feng and the doctor in a frenzy, until even the little animus in their bodies were exhausted, rendered ordinary mortals.

Visibly, all light left their eyes completely...

”Is this really feasible?”

Astounded, Liu Zongyuan watched as an Earth Prison rose flatly, the initiator smilingly tossing Gu Feng and the doctor inside like throwing dead dogs.

Han Yu snapped his fingers, and instantly, the Earth Prison was densely re-covered in newly sprouted vines.

Even if their limbs were intact, trying to dig out would be impossible.

Liu Zongyuan was dumbfounded by Han Yu’s maneuver, somewhat beginning to appreciate the benefits of multiple Divine Techniques.
