“What’s the difference?” Sixth Elder asked.

“It’s… scarier! Aren’t you scared of my Heavenly Oasis Clear Fire Pill? Hahaha…” The Heavenly Oasis Saint laughed happily.

“Heavenly Oasis old man, after so many years, you have really become more and more sly. Hmph, do you think I’ll believe you?” Sixth Elder naturally did not believe him.

The older one was, the craftier one would become. The Heavenly Oasis Saint, who stood before him, had evidently spent much time in the mortal realm and hence, was the epitome of a crafty old man.

Naturally, Sixth Elder would not fall for his trick so easily. The more the Heavenly Oasis Saint played down the ability of his pills, the more careful he would approach him.

When the Heavenly Oasis Saint saw how careful Sixth Elder was, he sighed in relief in his heart. He could not help but recall a scene one year ago.

On that day, he was trying to cultivate Clear Fire Pills. Coincidentally, as he walked into his alchemy room and was about to retrieve the pills, he saw Fang Zhengzhi pacing up and down before his crucible.

Without guessing, the Heavenly Oasis Saint knew that Fang Zhengzhi was here to steal his pills.

Like what they said, it was easy to guard against robbers but hard to protect oneself from a thief which came from within.

Fang Zhengzhi was this kind of thief. More importantly, if he caught him now, Fang Zhengzhi could just say that he had walked into the wrong door.

Hence, the Heavenly Oasis Saint naturally shot a look of anger at Fang Zhengzhi and instantly ordered him to scram.

Then, an innocent face appeared.

However, this time, Fang Zhengzhi did not use his ‘get-out-of-jail-free card’ by saying that he had walked into the wrong room. Instead, he ‘humbly’ asked him to teach him how to use this crucible.

The Heavenly Oasis Saint did not want to waste time explaining to him but Fang Zhengzhi pestered him non-stop. Furthermore, it was time to open the crucible and hence, he explained to Fang Zhengzhi as he opened the crucible.

Then, Fang Zhengzhi replied to him disrespectfully.

“Get rid of the air which you exhale? What a waste! Why not add a few more ingredients which will allow the aura around you to solidify. This will make it more terrifying. Furthermore, the pill will be bigger and hence, you can sell it for more money!”

“Scaring others? What use does that have? You rascal only know how to do all these tricks! Scram, don’t interfere with my pill retrieval!”

“I only know that? You are the one who’s ignorant… For a miser like you, the only people who can make you eat a Clear Fire Pill is someone who is a lot stronger than you. Why not scare him? Can you really live just with the effects of these Clear Fire Pills? Forget it, I’m lazy to explain this to you. Give me a piece and I’ll tinker with it and help you improve it.”

“…”

The Heavenly Oasis Saint naturally did not do as Fang Zhengzhi had asked. He stopped him from grabbing these Clear Fire Pills. However, he treated his words seriously. When he next cultivated pills, he could not help but to explore ways of making his Clear Fire Pill more terrifying.

Right now, reality proved that a casual statement made by Fang Zhengzhi allowed him to continue battling against Sixth Elder.

The Heaven Dao Pavilion, on top of the Sword Peak, in the center of the Heaven Academic Altar.

A huge green door stood in the center of the Heaven Academic Altar. On its left and right sides, there were stone carvings of beast heads. An ancient and barren aura could be felt from it.

The Heaven-Receiving Door!

One month ago, when Nangong Mu did his Blood Illustration Sacrifice, this green rock door appeared on top of the Heaven Academic Altar. However, this door was now shut and completely sealed.

Furthermore, Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples took turns to guard it.

At this moment, eight Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples in white, scholarly robes stood in eight different positions. They all wielded swords as they prevented anyone from coming close.

Of course, even though they were in the Heaven Academic Altar, they could hear the commotion coming from below as well as detect the change in the sky.

“What’s going on underneath the mountain?”

“How can chasing Fang Zhengzhi cause such a huge commotion?”

“I don’t know, I think something big is happening. However, our job is to guard the Heaven-Receiving Door. Stay perky, everyone, in case someone tries to steal it!”

“Yes!”

After a short conversation among the eight disciples, they shut their mouths. They scanned their surroundings and they behaved extremely carefully.

However, their attention was all placed on their surroundings. No one looked at the Heaven-Receiving Door. After all, the door had stood there for an entire month without anything happening.

However, at this moment…

One of the beast heads on the Heaven-Receiving Door moved slightly. It did not make any noise but instead, its mouth opened visibly.

Then, a single dot of starlight emerged from the beast’s mouth and flew into the sky.

“Hum!” The moment the starlight appeared, the seal surrounding the Heaven-Receiving Door started to tremble and started to hum.

The noise was not loud. After all, the vibration of the seal was not intense.

However, the disciples around reacted instantly. Eight swords were drawn at once.

“Clang!” Eight swords were unsheathed. All of them shone coldly.

“There’s a noise!”

“Is someone coming?”

“No, but the seal appeared to have been touched!”

The eight Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples looked at each other and their faces were all serious and severe. Eight gazes swept their surroundings and examined the seal on the door behind them.

However, the seal turned calm once more.

They felt as if nothing had happened.

“Are we hearing things?”

“Impossible. All eight of us heard it. Something is wrong. Master told us that we must report to him as soon as possible if anything happens to the Heaven-Receiving Door. Junior Wang, report to master now!”

“I think he’s doing closed-door cultivation?”

“Even so, you have to tell him immediately. This is what he had instructed us to do!”

“I understand, I’ll go now!” When one of the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples heard this, he immediately ran toward where Mu Qingfeng was.

As he ran, the starlight from the beast head on the Heaven-Receiving Door started to descend slowly from the sky. Under the shine from the sun, this tiny bit of starlight was not very eye-catching.

However, if one looked at it carefully, the starlight looked as if it had been hurt by the seal. It lost its momentum and was slowly drifting over to the cliff of the Sword Peak…

The forest in the cliff of the Sword Peak.

Fang Zhengzhi continued fighting with Second Elder and the rest. However, compared to the previous battle, Fang Zhengzhi’s side now possessed a clear advantage.

Finally, the eight formations of the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples started to slacken. This caused more and more Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples to become injured.

As for the fight between the Heavenly Oasis Saint and Sixth Elder…

Compared to the fight between the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples and the Shadow Sect disciples, this was much more intense. However, while it was more intense, it was still a stalemate.

Sixth Elder could not beat the Heavenly Oasis Saint and the Heavenly Oasis Saint could not beat Sixth Elder. The two of them exchanged blows non-stop.

As for Second Elder, he was really in a pickle.

Yan Qing’s battling style completely messed up Second Elder’s rhythm. Yan Qing seized the initiative and was completely thrashing him.

Yan Xiu fought differently from Yan Qing.

Right now, Yan Xiu fought based on his instincts alone. In other words, Yan Xiu could no longer differentiate between friend and foe right now.

All he wanted to do was to kill.

However, Yan Xiu’s killing intent always avoided Fang Zhengzhi. It would only target Second Elder and Yan Qing.

Second Elder did not know if this was a coincidence, but he could not do anything about it. Every single one of Yan Xiu’s moves passed by Fang Zhengzhi, completely sparing him.

This allowed Fang Zhengzhi to possess an absolute advantage in this chaotic fight.

If Yan Qing and Yan Xiu were two extremely unstable elements in this fight, Fang Zhengzhi could be said to be the shameless person who threw arrows from afar.

Furthermore, each of his slashes was horrifying.

Coupled with the powerful attractive force of the Hell Dao, as well as the Hell Near-Life Chains which would appear randomly, Second Elder spent most of his time on the defensive.

After he watched Fang Zhengzhi and Yuan Rong fought, Second Elder naturally did not dare to underestimate Fang Zhengzhi, especially his Hell Near-Life Chains.

After all, if they pierced him…

It was tantamount to death.

“Am I going to lose?” Second Elder was unwilling to accept this fact because he did not know what would happen to him if he really lost.

However, no matter how unwilling he was, he could not sustain this fight for long, especially the fight between the Shadow Sect disciples and the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples.

If this continued…

He could imagine the casualty figures afterward.

What could he do?

This moment of carelessness by Second Elder caused him to suffer a wound on his arm. He was evidently scratched. The only one who could attack him like this was Yan Qing.

Naturally, the moment Yan Qing scratched him, a sword wound appeared on his arm too. He was cut by the nine flying swords.

The wound was so deep until his bones could be seen.

However, Yan Qing did not seem to care.

Yan Qing’s sleeves were blood-red. However, his flesh recovered so quickly that even the naked eye could see the process.

Second Elder naturally knew that Yan Qing descended from the Indestructible Gifted Bloodline. However, this knowledge was useless if he could not find a way to deal him a mortal blow.

Fang Zhengzhi did not allow him to do so.

“Am I really going to lose?” Second Elder did not know how many times had he asked himself that. If not for the importance of this battle, he would have ordered a retreat a long time ago.

However, he could not do that! No way!

“Even if I die, I must preserve the glory of the Heaven Dao Pavilion. I can’t lose. Fang Zhengzhi must die!” Second Elder’s body was soaked with blood. However, he forced himself to inhale and a golden light which was about 25 centimeters long shot out from the golden sword in his hand.

Then, Second Elder leaped into the air and bypassed Yan Qing. He slashed down at Fang Zhengzhi, who stood behind Yan Qing.

“I’m here!” When Yan Qing saw Second Elder leap, he squatted down and then, he leaped toward Second Elder like a frog.

The moment his legs left the ground, a few more cracks could be seen.

Evidently, Yan Qing’s mastery of his strength was still inadequate. However, this did not affect his speed.

The moment Second Elder slashed with his sword, Yan Qing grabbed Second Elder’s right leg with his two arms. Then, he tugged down intensely.

This action…

For a truly powerful cultivator, it was almost impossible. However, Yan Qing did it without any problem.

By doing this, Second Elder’s body tilted to one side and his golden sword light went off its mark by one centimeter.

“Good chance!” Fang Zhengzhi’s mouth twitched. He had been waiting for this moment. In a battle between powerful cultivators, the one who was more anxious would reveal his weakness earlier.

Evidently, Second Elder was panicking.

He gripped his Traceless Sword tightly and a purple light, which shot into the sky, started to shine. As Second Elder was in mid-air, he was confident that if he slashed right now, Second Elder would at least become severely injured.

He did not hesitate anymore.

What concerns could he have?

Absolutely none. Now that situation was as such, even if he spared Second Elder, the next time they met he was sure that Second Elder would not spare him.

This was how vendettas formed…

He did not mind making one more enemy.

He raised his sword!

A dragon roar could be heard!

Fang Zhengzhi’s figure disappeared. In the next instant, eight shadows appeared around Second Elder. Each of them wielded a long sword which glowed purple.

“Dragon Dances Eight Realms!” This was Fang Zhengzhi’s most offensive attack. Hence, how could he be stingy when such an opportunity presented itself?

Eight shadows cornered Second Elder.

At the same time, eight swords were raised into the air. Purple light illuminated the sky and then, eight dragon roars could be heard. Eight twisted sword radiances slashed Second Elder.

“Boom!” A huge explosion.

Purple light shone in the sky like a purple lotus. Then, blood spurted into the air and floated in the sky.

This scene was shocking. At the same time, this made the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples stiffen.
