Chapter 302: Chapter 291: Turning the Tables on the Enemy

"Sect Master!" An Mujing’s body, shrouded in starlight, came to a sudden halt at the illuminated peak of Ziwei Peak.

"Hmm? Sister An?"

At this moment, coming out from the Sect Master’s hall, He Zhiqing and Yu Gejing happened to run into An Mujing.

"Chief He, Sister Yu!" An Mujing really didn’t have much time now, so she only hurriedly greeted them and then rushed to the Sect Master’s hall.

"What happened to Sister An? Didn’t she go down the mountain?" Yu Gejing turned to look at An Mujing hurrying away with a puzzled look, but then saw Chief He’s expression turning very serious, with a purple light flickering in his eyes.

"What’s the matter?"

"My Eye of Wonders, after being sealed twice by Senior Su and Master, can now be used briefly without any side effects. Just as Sister An passed by a moment ago, I seemed to see a scene where Master was seriously injured!"

"What!" Yu Gejing exclaimed in shock, her mind shaking, and she subconsciously grasped Chief He’s wrist, her eyes somewhat panicked.

"Let’s not rush to worry! As you know, the future my eyes see is just a possibility, and that future began to change the moment Sister An entered the hall," He Zhiqing patted Sister Yu’s hand and said reassuringly with a smile.

The calm and gentle tone from her junior brother made Yu Gejing’s clutching heart gradually relax, and she finally exhaled a sigh of relief.

"Let’s go back and see why Sister An is in such a hurry, it must be related to the future you just saw." Yu Gejing turned around and walked back towards the Sect Master’s hall,

"Hey, wait for me." He Zhiqing held the place Sister Yu had just grasped, watching her sister hurry away, he sighed softly with a smile and followed.

Inside the Sect Master’s hall is not a usual architectural layout; stepping inside is like entering the Milky Way.

The ceiling and floor of the hall were not visible, replaced instead by the vast starry sky, which makes one feel a soul-stirring awe at first glance.

Fang Zhi was standing among the stars at this moment, moving the stars around with a wave of his hand, making An Mujing think of the title that the Cultivation World gave the Sect Master—

The Master of Stars!

"Oh, it’s Mujing, why are you here?" Fang Zhi was fully focused on divining the reversal of his daughter’s destiny, without the spare energy to divine anything else.

"Sect Master, along with Taoist Sect’s Chief Liang Yi, Sister Su Youyi, and the Young Master of the Demon Clan, we discovered traces of the Devouring Spirit Sect in Taibai City. The Acquisition Elder of Taibai City, Elder Fu, is also with the Devouring Spirit Sect and is currently rushing towards our sect!"

An Mujing quickly sorted out the significance of events and briefly summarized her and Liang Yi’s findings in just a few words.

"Devouring Spirit Sect?" Fang Zhi frowned, realizing that the matter was not simple. As his hands stopped moving, the stars also paused.

The starry sky within this hall is not merely for aesthetics, but it encompasses the original Star Map, one of Complete Heaven Sect’s sect-defending Immortal Treasures, the Grand Map of All Wonders.

The marvels of divination, stars, and the Complete Heaven are all encapsulated in this map, the marvel of marvels.

However, Fang Zhi or other Complete Heaven Sect’s divination adept great beings seldom use this Immortal Treasure to foretell.

The future consists of countless possibilities; those with insufficient realm would be overwhelmed by the vast information upon seeing a great deal of the future at once—lighter cases would be with a damaged Divine Soul, while more severe cases could be eroded by the force of Time River, leaving not even remnants.

But, the power of the Grand Map of All Wonders is too strong. Normally, divination utilizes the power of the Time River to glimpse into a vague future. Yet, the Grand Map of All Wonders can greatly reduce Time River’s backlash on the diviner.

It allows the Divination Teller to see much farther and clearer.

This nearly side-effect-free predictive ability can easily become addictive, with the Divination Teller increasingly immersing themselves in futures rather than returning to the present, leading to death from consumed lifespan. Therefore, except in dire circumstances, successive Sect Masters of Complete Heaven Sect hardly ever use this Immortal Treasure.

But Fang Zhi could not care about these at the moment.

To prevent himself from being immersed in the future, he performed only limited divination for the upcoming reversal of his daughter’s fate, faintly sensing the likelihood of success, but he refrained from looking into the aftermath.

Upon hearing the news brought by An Mujing, Fang Zhi instantly felt a surge of dangerous intuition. This intuition warned him that if the Devouring Spirit Sect were left unchecked, it would cause a significant change to the future.

"Is it vague?" Fang Zhi’s brow raised, realizing something was amiss.

This was his divination aided by the Grand Map of All Wonders; without it, wouldn’t he be unable to divine anything?

Whenever he tried to get closer to the Time River, to see the future more clearly, a mysterious force would always appear, veiling his eyes and blurring his vision.

If it were before, he would only feel that it was the power of the Time River hindering him, while also protecting him from erosion. But now, after An Mujing’s reminder, when he observed this power again, Jiang Ran found that there was a familiar force within it.

"Is this Abyss Power?" Fang Zhi suddenly clenched his fists tightly.

"Abyss?" He Zhiqing and Yu Gejing, who had been standing by quietly listening to An Mujing’s recount of events, also expressed their astonishment at this moment.

"This power is correct, it is indeed Abyss Power, and only the Abyss has the ability to intercept my glimpse into the Time River." Fang Zhi, who failed in his divination of the Time River, was not particularly panicked; divination was only to further exaggerate their advantage.

But now, even without successful divination, they still firmly held the advantage in intelligence.

"Apart from Fu Changxing, that child Liang Yi’s side, there are other members of the Devouring Spirit Sect in the sect."

The next words spoken by Fang Zhi did not surprise He Zhiqing and Yu Gejing, as they did not believe that the Complete Heaven Sect would be without internal traitors if the Devouring Spirit Sect could carry out this plan.

"Since Brother Liang has just come to us as a guest and brought us such a big surprise, then we must not fail him." He Zhiqing clenched his fists, feeling some emotional turbulence.

"Of course, since the Devouring Spirit Sect plans to visit our Complete Heaven Sect, we, as the hosts, naturally cannot neglect them." Fang Zhi chuckled lightly and turned his gaze towards the Complete Heaven Sect below the mountain. "Since Liang Yi mentioned a way to determine the internal traitors, let’s not worry about that fellow for now and take care of these two guests first."

With a wave of his hand, Fang Zhi sent out three streaks of starlight towards the Star Palace in the sky within the sect and then summoned An Mujing and the others to start instructing them on what to do.

The entire Complete Heaven Sect was in a half-secret realm, with only one Star Gate serving as the entrance and exit connecting the two realms.

The grand and majestic Star Gate stood towering at the entrance of the Complete Heaven Sect, with countless sect disciples moving in and out as streaks of starlight. Coupled with the eternal night sky enveloping the sect, it looked like an endless meteor shower.

This was also considered one of the Complete Heaven Sect’s greatest spectacles and was loved by players.

A starlight, obviously much thicker than usual, descended from the sky and landed directly at the entrance of the grand Star Gate, attracting the attention of many.

The dark and mysterious light shattered, revealing the figures of Fu Changxing and Liang Yi’s group.

"It’s Elder Fu from Taibai City!"

Whether they were passing by or stationed at the Star Gate, the disciples of the Complete Heaven Sect were familiar with this Acquisition Elder from Taibai City. Sometimes, they would go down the mountain to ask this elder for help with acquiring materials needed for sect missions.

"Elder Fu, why are you the one delivering the spirit wood?" A young disciple stationed at the Star Gate curiously looked at the massive spirit wood placed on the beast cart behind Fu Changxing while verifying his identity.

"Zhao Xi, I didn’t expect it to be your turn to guard the Star Gate today." Fu Changxing kindly patted Zhao Xi’s shoulder.

"These are the Baiqing Sky Song Wood that the Sect Master requested. They couldn’t be stored in magical treasures, and ordinary cultivators couldn’t move them, so this old man took the trouble to help deliver them directly." Although Fu Changxing’s eyes weren’t visible, everyone could tell that Elder Fu was smiling in a very amiable manner.

"So this is Baiqing Sky Song Wood." Zhao Xi and the other Complete Heaven Sect disciples behind him looked at the colossal wood next to Liang Yi with inquisitive and curious eyes. Although they had heard of this kind of spirit wood before, today was their first time seeing it.

"Haha, Elder Fu, it must have been tough for you. By the way, who are these two?" Although Zhao Xi was surprised, he did not forget his duty and pointed at Liang Yi and Su Youyi in the distance.

"Wait, these two people... look a bit familiar." Zhao Xi squinted his eyes; even in the dark, the recognizability of their striking features made it hard for him to look away.

"Taoist Sect’s Liang Yi and Su Youyi!?" Zhao Xi suddenly widened his eyes, exclaiming incredulously.

"And you, the Young Master of the Demon Clan, Lord Tangerine!" Lord Tangerine indignantly stood on top of Liang Yi’s head, waving his paws in protest.

"Young Master of the Demon Clan?" Even Fu Changxing turned his head in surprise to look at the imposing orange-colored exotic beast atop Liang Yi’s head.

Their Devouring Spirit Sect had no influence in the Zen Sect of Desert North, and the only one left with minimal influence was the Ten Thousand Miles Mountain. Although the Demon Clan was simple-minded, they were exceptionally united internally and hardly communicated with the outside world, which is why the sect’s intelligence on Ten Thousand Miles Mountain had always been limited.

Lord Tangerine originally didn’t want to stand out, but Liang Yi had asked of him; he had no choice but to let these mortals admire his visage.

Su Youyi found Lord Tangerine’s proud demeanor quite amusing. Her senior brother was merely asking him to stall for time.

Now, since Sister An had not yet informed them, it meant that the trap wasn’t ready, so they could only rely on themselves to delay for a bit. However, she and her senior brother didn’t have a suitable excuse, so they could only rely on Lord Tangerine, the little clever spirit, to try.

Zhao Xi blinked and exchanged glances with other Complete Heaven Sect disciples behind him. Could this be real? They hadn’t heard that the Grand Saint of Nine Spirits had sired offspring.

And could the child of the renowned Grand Saint of Nine Spirits be so adorable?
