  The giant headless body stood ramrod-straight in the middle of the square as if it was about to touch the sky. Huang Deheng and the others barely reached the top of his knee. The aura being emitted from the body was terrifying and oppressive.

  “Ahhh!” screamed Qin Manyun and Shi Tuqin when they saw the giant headless body. The others were shocked as well, for they never expected the cyclops to be headless.

  “He’s not only sealed in a godforsaken place but also had his head severed off. Who’d go to all this effort?”


  “How could he still be alive after so many years?”


  “He’s too terrifying. It’s hard to imagine just how powerful he was when he was at the peak of his power.”


  “He must be a Wisdom Elite!” said the group in shock. Huang Deheng and Old Ling had never felt so insignificant before. Even with their power, they would surely die after a hundred years of being sealed away. The cyclops did it without his head!

  The headless cyclops faced the crowd and a powerful pressure flowed out of it like a waterfall. “After all that, you still chose to enter?”


  Blackie walked calmly to the fruit tree and picked it up. “How can we get out of this place if we don’t come here? Besides, I need to bring this fruit tree back.”


  “Haha, stupid dog. You’re even more foolish than I thought.” The headless cyclops was full of murderous intent and without saying anything further, started to attack Blackie. His spiritual strength was not like before so no manifestations appeared when he raised his hand. Even so, he managed to kick up a storm. His physical strength alone was enough to stir up the laws of the universe and suppress the heavens.

  The giant palm was coming down on Blackie fast like a flyswatter, totally blocking out the sun. The crowd snapped back to the present and attacked the headless cyclops at the same time. Jiang Liu unsheathed his sword and swung it toward the headless cyclops’ body. At this, the headless cyclops raised his other hand to block out Jiang Liu’s sword attack which fizzled out in the middle of his palm.

  “What terrifying power. His body alone’s enough to sustain our attacks!”


  “No wonder they could only seal him away even after separating his head and body. He must be very difficult to kill.”


  “Even the passing of time couldn’t destroy his body!”


  Jiang Liu and the rest of the group were sent flying by the force of the headless cyclops’ slap.

  On the other side, Blackie was using his butt to deflect the headless cyclops’ attack but it was futile. With a big bang, he was sent crashing down to the ground, too. Fortunately, he sustained no injuries and was able to get up instantly. Seeing this, the headless cyclops was puzzled.

  “You can’t hurt me. I have the protection of the leather pants,” said Blackie proudly. Then, he lowered his eyes and his mana surrounded him, causing the leather pants to glow with a black light. “Wisdom supernatural power, Blinding Mosaic!”


  Instantly, the mosaic light enveloped the headless cyclops.

  “What kind of supernatural power is this? It’s affecting my divine consciousness,” said the headless cyclops. He realized he had lost his sense of ‘sight’ and could not ‘see’ Blackie and the others at all. No matter how strong he was, he would not be able to fight off the enemies if he could not ‘see’ them. He found it hard to believe that there was a supernatural power that could affect him. It must be a supernatural power of the Wisdom level! The leather pants must be some kind of Ultimate Treasure.

  Meanwhile, Qin Manyun was sitting mid-air in a cross-legged position with her Guqin in front of her. Her dress was flapping gently, making her look like an enchanted fairy. She was running her slender fingers over the strings and airwaves visible to the naked eye rippled through the air with the sound of the Guqin. The airwaves were none other than the laws of the universe!

  At the start, the sound of the Guqin rippled like small streams of water, flowing gently around Yanmo which annoyed him very much. Soon, the sound of the Guqin sped up like a thousand galloping armored horses, causing more and more ripples to appear. Before long, the little creek turned into a torrential river and completely engulfed Yanmo. They could see terrifying manifestations around Yanmo as if the world was coming to an end.

  The song she was playing was called Ambush. It was the first song Li Nianfang ever taught her during the times of the Prehistoric era. It was also Qin Manyun’s favorite and most skilled song! The song was filled with murderous intent and one round of this song was enough to collapse the Wisdom of a small planet.

  “What a powerful song! The Guqin’s enough to turn the world upside down,” said Old Ling with shock. Although the song was not targeted at him, he still felt his blood boiling as a chilling murderous intent surged up his body.

  Yanmo’s movement became suppressed as if he was slogging his way through the mud. Shi Tuqin took this opportunity to write the words, ‘Three thousand visitors are full of flowers, fourteen states froze over, with one strike of the sword.’ As soon as the last word was written, endless Sword Qi raised, creating an endless tempest storm. The wind whipped through the air like sharpened blades.

  At the same time, a white light flowed around Jiang Liu’s body as its sword light shot through the sky. Combined with the poem Shi Tuqin wrote, an explosive Sword Intent erupted in the air. He swung his sword and an earth-shattering bladed energy with enough power to destroy a world rushed and collided against Yanmo. This sword attack had already surpassed the laws of the universe and was imbued with a shred of Wisdom power.

  Huang Deheng swallowed and in a shocked voice, he said, “Terrifying… Very terrifying!” Death would be his only path should he come face-to-face with such a sword attack.

  “They’re too powerful to only be of the Heavenly Realm level!” cried Old Ling with shock. “That leather pants, that Guqin, and that calligraphy brush… All of them must be Ultimate Chaos Treasures!” His voice had a touch of mania in it as his eyes swept over Blackie and the rest of the group. He felt like his heart was about to explode. “They must be the expert’s elite force and the reason for his power! They’re truly unbelievable!”


  Huang Deheng coughed gently and said, “You must be sorely mistaken.”


  “What do you mean?” asked Old Ling quizzically.

  “Lord Dog’s simply a pet kept by the expert, that young man with the sword is his woodcutter, and the other two girls are his music apprentice and calligraphy apprentice. As for the Ultimate Chaos Treasures, they were freely given to them by the expert for he had no use for them.”


  “What…?” Old Ling’s mind began to buzz as he felt his Dao Heart nearly collapse. He chastised himself for having such a narrow worldview. “Do you think there’s a need for more people to serve the expert? I’m willing to do anything—even sweeping the floor—if I can stay by his side!”


  “Hmph! Sweeping the floor? Even I have to line up to have a chance to be the trash collector!” said Huang Deheng angrily.

  Under everyone’s joint attacks, Yanmo’s screams echoed through the air as his murderous aura shot through the sky. He was on the verge of having a manic breakdown. There were cuts all over his body and his blood sprayed out like a fine mist. There was even a three-foot-wide gash with black-red blood flowing out of it. The weird thing was, his blood did not drip down to the ground. Instead, it was momentarily suspended in the air before it flowed back into the wound.

  Jiang Liu took a deep breath and said in disbelief, “How is it possible for him to sustain such little injuries when we’re using all of our most powerful attacks?”


  “The Wisdom Elite’s already known to be powerful but he might be even more powerful than the average Wisdom Elite,” said Qin Manyun gravely.

  “Die! Every one of you, die!” shouted Yanmo furiously. Dark lights started to appear around his body as he prepared to use his supernatural power, too. His body suddenly expanded to 10 meters, and then again to 15 meters tall! His body alone took up half of the space around them. He lifted his right foot, which was as big as a mountain, and stomped in the direction of the group.

  Qin Manyun increased the speed of her playing and the sound of her Guqin transformed into a rainbow light. The manifestations swirled around it with enough power to hold up the sky. Shi Tuqin wrote down some words with her calligraphy brush again which created more attacks against Yanmo. Jiang Liu raised his sword which transformed into a giant sword and pierced it through Yanmo’s giant foot. Blackie raised his dog paw and a giant paw print collided against Yanmo. Huang Deheng and Old Ling gave their strongest attacks as their mana surged madly around.

  All at the same time, an endless number of attacks exploded against Yanmo, causing the space to crack. The laws of the universe shot madly around and countless manifestations seemed to be hellbent on destroying this space. Suddenly, a crack appeared on the seal portal with a cracking sound. The crack became bigger and bigger with countless other tiny cracks appearing until the cracks formed the word ‘seal’.

  The seal was near the point of integration. After the passing of so many years and coupled with the group’s attacks, it found itself unable to maintain its power. At one point, they knew the seal had been completely destroyed when they heard an exploding sound. The planet they were on exploded together with the destruction of the seal and was turned into dust. The force of the explosion spread across the Chaos and created a dust storm.

  At the site of the explosion, Blackie and the rest of the group were sent flying as the color drained out of their faces. Yanmo suffered the brunt of the explosion as his headless body was drenched in blood from the infinite cuts he sustained. He had lost the power to heal himself. However, he was laughing maniacally. “Hahaha, I’m out. I’m finally out! The next era will be my era, Yanmo’s era! Now die, all of you!”


  An infinite amount of Spiritual Qi started to flow toward him as they were absorbed by his body. His aura was becoming stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye. His wounds started to heal themselves. He was already very powerful in a space without Spiritual Qi which meant he would be even more powerful now that he was out of that place. There was no stopping him from taking over the world this time.

  “Stop him. We must seal him up again,” said Blackie.

  The group sent out attacks, one after another, which created a barrier around Yanmo, cutting off his supply of Spiritual Qi from the outside world. Shi Tuqin had her eyes closed while she furiously scribbled words in thin air. She was trying to copy the word ‘seal’ from her mind. As she did so, the fragmented seal started to gather together, reforming itself into the word ‘seal’. It was emitting a weird aura.

  “Don’t even think you can seal me up again now that I’m out!” shouted Yanmo angrily. He threw out a punch which broke the barrier and left the area immediately without once looking back. His top priority was to recuperate so that he could regain his power and come back to kill this bunch of people. He was not foolish enough to think he could do it now.

  Before he could do that, Shi Tuqin had already finished writing the word. She nodded at Yanmo’s retreating figure and the word flew across the distance. It transformed into a blood-red light that went right into Yanmo’s body. Instantly, Yanmo’s aura became drastically weaker, causing him to lose the ability to absorb Spiritual Qi from the outside world. However, he did not stop and ran even faster.

  “Quickly, chase after him. The seal can only last three days!” said Shi Tuqin anxiously.

  The group quickly did as she said and shot out toward Yanmo in a trail of light. It was the chase of the century. Wherever they passed, the space around them would become distorted. They were so fast that to the normal eye, they looked like a blur. The people living on the planets they passed could only feel a sudden force cutting through the air which caused them to quake in their boots. Some even nearly wet their pants.

  “My God, what was that thing? How can it be so fast when it’s headless?”


  “Is that a bald dog behind him?”


  “One headless, one hairless. Is that what it takes to be strong nowadays?”


  “Where did they come from? They’re not your average Heavenly Realm fighters.”


  They could only look on admiringly from the sidelines for they knew they would not be able to keep up even if they wanted to join the chase.

  Just as Blackie was about to catch hold of Yanmo, he suddenly thought of something. “This can’t be right. He’s not escaping haphazardly. He must be aiming to go to a certain place. We’ve been chasing him for two days nonstop in the direction from East to West.”


  Shi Tuqin’s heart jumped as she voiced her thoughts out loud. “East to West? Could it be that the person who sealed Yanmo away kept his head in the East and his body in the West?”


  “Oh no, he’s searching for his head. We better stop him!”


  The crowd’s expression changed drastically and they quickly increased their speed. However, they heard Yanmo laughing as he rushed toward a giant black planet and slammed his raised fist against it. The black planet shook violently and fine cracks began to appear on its surface. Yanmo threw out another punch against the black planet, revealing its interior as he shouted, “Come to me, my head!”
