After bidding farewell to the Wise Sage, you all arrived at Starfish Island.
After some probing, the Qiankun Mirror spoke with absolute certainty.
"This is it, this spot is where the Three-Headed Realm's world barrier is at its weakest!"
The mirror surface of the Qiankun Mirror glittered with divine light, half of the bronze ancient mirror slowly lifting into the air, as if it were about to ascend to immortality.
"Everyone fall back! I'm about to show off! Hahaha! Watch how I take you all home!!"
Boom!
A thunderclap like a bolt from the blue made everyone jolt.
The sky seemed to split open, exposing a massive crack.
"Amazing! No wonder it's a Great Dao Immortal Artifact that governs spatial power!"
Someone flattered.
The Qiankun Mirror, however, said in puzzlement,
"I haven't even released my power yet?"
Everyone was confused.
"Then what is that in the sky?"
Your surrounding vision instantly turned blood-red.
A surging Dragon-Man aura poured out from the spatial rift.
A razor-like blade of light slashed in an instant, ripping open space and cutting the sky as if it were a sheet of paper!
A Dragon-Man some ten-plus meters tall, massive in build with an astonishing wingspan and skin flowing with golden-black light streams, holding two golden blades, flew out.
"Jin Fei Jin reporting! Ordered to hunt down and execute the alien enemies who destroyed my realm and conquered the Reserved Zones!!"
Jin Fei Jin?
That name made you think of Huo Feihuo from the Demon World.
Ka One and Ka Two cried out.
"Lord, be careful! He's a Dragon Saint!!"
He truly was of the same series as Huo Feihuo!
Jin Fei Jin gave you no time to react. He opened with blade qi sweeping across the void, cleaving Ka One and Ka Two into eight pieces through the air.
"Traitor! You dared to call the alien 'lord'! Executed on the spot!!"
Jin Fei Jin's two golden blades resembled the death scythes of reapers, and with each step he struck the ground as if teleporting out at lightning speed.
Those who had not even seen him yet first felt his blade at their faces.
He became a being of golden light, charging left and right over Starfish Island, reaping lives.
Within a few breaths, several Saint and Saintess candidates were gruesomely slain by his blades.
"Bastard!"
Rage rose to your head. Your body rapidly enlarged, and before you lost too much reason you told the Qiankun Mirror,
"Qiankun Mirror! Open a passage!"
Old Kun glanced at the murderous Jin Fei Jin and trembled a little.
"But this guy is a bit ferocious..."
"I'll hold him off! Don't worry about that, just open it!!"
The Ten Thousand Souls Golden Banner released tens of thousands of reformed Dragon-Man slave-management soldiers.
"Children! Kill your former commanders!"
The Ten Thousand Souls Golden Banner had already strengthened each of these Dragon-Men by one realm—unable to raise them from early to mid tier, but capable of boosting them within a major stage.
Although they attacked in soul-state, which was inconvenient, the banner caused them to self-detonate. The energy from their soul explosions could at least interfere with Jin Fei Jin.
Jin Fei Jin's great blades hacked wildly, and a single strike could obliterate a cluster of Dragon-Man souls.
"Traitor! Traitor! All traitors! Kill, kill, kill!!"
A massive hand burst out from the swarm of Dragon-Man souls and slapped Jin Fei Jin hard across the face.
You let out a furious roar: "Get lost!!!"
Jin Fei Jin was knocked flying.
That was Heartsteel's normal attack, with peerless power.
But to a Dragon Saint, it was nothing.
Seeing you grow larger, Jin Fei Jin sneered.
"An ant, no matter how large it grows, is still an ant!"
Jin Fei Jin slashed space, wrapping shards of ruptured space with his blade and rushed at you, unstoppable momentum like ten thousand horses galloping.
"Stellar River Divine Art!"
You manipulated gravity, raising him while lowering yourself to dodge his attack, then lowering him while raising yourself, then stomped hard on the crown of his head.
"Damn! You can control Earth Force! Then I'll enter the void!"
Jin Fei Jin's combat pattern was unfathomably mysterious.
He kept cutting and opening brief pockets of spatial turbulence with his blade, rushing in and then rushing out, repeating the cycle.
No matter how you controlled gravity, you couldn't affect other pockets of space.
Using that method, Jin Fei Jin appeared and vanished around you, launching fierce assaults.
You were drenched in blood, unleashing every martial art you had.
The Nine Provinces Cauldron blocked several lethal strikes for you, showing faint hairline cracks across its surface.
The Nine Crows Divine Bow fired a few times, but Jin Fei Jin dodged each shot through void maneuvers.
The life-saving items your masters had given you shattered one by one during the battle.
The more Jin Fei Jin fought, the more frenzied he became, both golden blades beginning to tremble as his combat power continued to rise.
He was exhilarated.
"No wonder their slave-management army was killed off almost entirely, yet they said the leader among the enemies was only at Spirit Condensation!
I thought they were talking nonsense, but it really is such a Spirit Condensation!
Fine, fine! Then let's fight until it hurts!!"
To avoid collateral damage to others and the Qiankun Mirror, you rode a flying sword and used Sword Flight Art to keep the fight mainly in the air.
However, Sword Flight Art still couldn't equal direct levitation, which somewhat limited your performance.
Wu Yue, Wang Mingbai, Long Yang, Baili Su and the others watched you spar with a Dragon Saint-level enemy, hearts twisted with anxiety.
"I'll go help him!"
Wu Yue, holding the Immortal Sword Phoenix Cry, prepared to leap up and lend a hand.
But Wang Mingbai grabbed her wrist.
"Miss Wu! No! The enemy is at Martial Saint realm—we can't stop a single strike of his! Several people have already died!"
Wu Yue shouted out in panic.
"Are you going to let Chen Yi fight alone?!"
After years together, everyone already knew your real name was Chen Yi, not Chen Dong.
They didn't think it strange; travelers often used assumed names.
Perhaps this Chen Yi was also a pseudonym.
The survivors actually understood that although your cultivation seemed close to theirs, you were not on the same level.
Wang Mingbai glanced at the Qiankun Mirror which was working with all its might to open the passage and smiled slightly.
"I have a plan to buy a little time. If Qiankun Mirror succeeds, you all leave immediately."
"What are you going to do?"
"Watch and trust me."
Beside him, Long Yang saw Wang Mingbai's determination, but watching you—powerful though you were—already staining the sky with blood, he could only hesitate.
Wang Mingbai produced an Immortal Artifact called the Lightning-Chasing, Thunder-Racing Boots.
They were the same boots belonging to the Minister of Rites of the Spirit Artifact Nation in the last simulation; their origin was the Wang Clan of the Chaotic Crystal Sea.
Wang Mingbai stepped on lightning and directly ascended without touching the ground.
At the same time, the Qiankun Mirror screamed in pain,
"Brother, half my body can't stand! Someone help steady me!!"
Hearing this, Wu Yue, Long Yang and the others hurried to assist.
In midair, Wang Mingbai turned and looked down at Wu Yue, who was running toward the Qiankun Mirror.
Tears brimmed in his eyes, his expression complicated.
Then he suddenly turned his head, eyes fixed on Jin Fei Jin fighting you high above, without a hint of fear—only a trace of amusement and mockery.
"Jin Fei Jin! Today I will show you the power of my people!"
