Since Jiang Ming knew he couldn’t get any information from Shan Hu, he killed him without hesitation. After Shan Hu was dead, a gush of energy rose from his body, and Jiang Ming was overjoyed. He grabbed it, and just as he expected, it was the origin essence of a non-elemental world. It was ten times stronger than the one he had gotten from Long Qian.

  “Long Qian was a Primal Spirit expert, while Shan Hu was a Paradis expert. It’s only one realm difference, and it increases by ten times and saves me ten years of work!”


  Jiang Ming was happy with the outcome.

  Now it was confirmed the beneficiaries of the Reincarnation Hall were not beasts or monsters but food for him.

  Although there was a World Heart in his inner world, it was still tough and took a long time to transform into a real world.

  Now that he had the origin essence, things would be easier.

  Jiang Ming did not absorb it into his inner world instantly. Instead, he checked through it with the Human Path Records, and he only started absorbing it after he was certain that it was fine.

  The inner world absorbed the origin essence in the blink of an eye. As the origin began to grow, more laws were formed. Some of the residual energy also merged into his body and made his physical body even stronger.

  He squinted his eyes and looked over Shan Hu’s corpse. His corpse remained on the ground lifelessly. He had quite a few items on him, but none of them were technology gadgets. “Did his soul get obliterated?” Jiang Ming thought for a while.

  He found two items on par with the supreme-grade Dao Vessel and one forbidden weapon on the same level as an Imminent Immortal Weapon. Honestly, Jiang Ming was kind of surprised. If Shan Hu was an Extreme Path expert, Jiang Ming was confident that he would be able to escape from him.

  He took all his items and clapped his hands, reducing Shan Hu’s corpse into dust and blowing it away with the wind.

  Meanwhile, Liu Yu and Ming Hai were planning their next move. Suddenly, the voice of the Reincarnation System rang out in their heads at the same time.

  (Ding! Before coming here, Beneficiary Liu Yu, Team Black Tiger activated the karma-severing feature. Now that your captain Shan Hu has been killed, team members’ condition function has been activated. All of you will be notified when one of your team members is killed.]

  The same thing was going on in “Xiao Xuan” and Ming Hai’s brains.

  “The boss has been killed? How is that possible!?” Liu Yu’s face turned pale. “We’ve activated the karma-severing feature. There’s no way other people would know where our boss is. He has never shown himself, so how did he get killed all of a sudden? This is so weird!”


  “Could it be that a powerful being killed him?” Ming Hai said, his face was as pale as Liu Yu’s.

  “That’s impossible. How many strong beings are left in Eastern Region? I’m sure the Jiuyang Sect killed our boss. Now that they’ve gotten both Long Qian and our boss, the Jiuyang Sect is terrifying. They aren’t as simple as they seem to be. If they could even kill our boss, then how about us?” Liu Yu’s expression changed, and she stopped speaking. Ming Hai froze.

  They looked at each other, and they could see the fear in each other’s eyes.

  At the same time, a figure had appeared before them.

  It was Jiang Ming. After killing Shan Hu, he pinpointed their location with the Human Path Record as he was worried that they might run away.

  As soon as he arrived here, he activated the Great Akasa Cage Technique and prevented them from running away.

  I

  U

  The Human Path Records appeared and hovered over his head.

  “Liu Yu, Ming Hai!” Jiang Ming shouted.

  “Who are you?” Liu Yu asked, her face filled with trepidation. “Are you the one who killed our boss?”


  “Are you talking about Shan Hu? Yes. I’m the one who killed him,” Jiang Ming replied. “Do you want to live or not?”


  “Of course, but how?” Liu Yu replied without any hesitation.

  Ming Hai tried to activate his special ability but to no avail. He then chose to use one of his forbidden weapons. However, the weapon was destroyed as soon as it shot out of his body. Ming Hai was taken aback, and his face turned ashen pale.

  “Tell me about the other friends,” Jiang Ming said with a grin. “If I’m happy with your answer, I’ll let you go.”


  “He’s Ming Hai, a Primal Spirit expert!” Liu Yu said without any hesitation, “Long Qian, who you killed, was a Primal Spirit expert. Our boss, Shan Hu, was a Paradis expert. We have one more member. His name is Zheng Xuan. He’s a Paradis expert too, and he’s currently inviting other experts from other provinces to Qing Province. What else do you want to know? I’ll tell you everything. All I ask for is just let me live!” Liu Yu pleaded.

  “Liu Yu, how could you!?” Ming Hai snarled, “Have you forgotten about our vow? Even if we weren’t born on the same day, we should die together on the same day. We will go through thick and thin together and keep each other’s secrets! Now that our boss is dead, I won’t blame you if you don’t want to avenge him, but how could you leak our information to our enemy? You’ll die a gruesome death, Liu Yu!”


  “This man comes from the Jiuyang Sect, and he’s far stronger than us. Since he knows that we’re plotting against the Jiuyang Sect, how is there any possibility that he would let us go? I don’t want to die. It took me long enough to come here, and there’s no way I’m giving up my life just like that!” Liu Yu said, her face contorted with rage. “Besides, we’re just hired by the experts from the Fo Sect, so what does it matter if we say it out loud? Our boss is dead, Long Qian is dead, so if both of us are dead, who is going to protect our clan?”


  “I… I…” Ming Hai’s face was filled with remorse.

  Jiang Ming lifted his eyebrows and looked at them.

  The Human Path Records was opened up.

  Name: Liu Yu.

  Status: She was caught between laughter and tears. Her boss was killed, but the reincarnation notification feature was activated at the same time. They came here just to get rid of the Jiuyang Sect. They had never made any enemies yet, so the one who killed their boss should be the expert from the Jiuyang Sect.

  She was worried about herself since even they could discover her boss and kill him. She had been ambushed when she was attacking the Jiuyang Sect, and now she finally saw the reason why the person had not killed her on the spot despite having the ability to do so.

  Now that he had found her, she noticed that she couldn’t break herself free from the constraint no matter how hard she tried. She wondered if the man before her was one of the beneficiaries of the Reincarnation Hall. After all, not only did he know their boss was Shan Hu, but he also knew their names. However, there was one thing she couldn’t understand. Since he knew who they were, why did he not kill them instantly?

  He had mentioned all of their names but Xiao Xuan’s. Did this mean that he still did not know about Xiao Xuan’s name? Since he did not kill them right away, she felt that she still had a chance to get away from here. She then formulated a plan with Ming Hai and pushed all the blame to the Fo Sect. At the same time, she swore to God that she would keep Xiao Xuan’s real name a secret with her life.

  Jiang Ming sighed inwardly. He still did not get Xiao Xuan’s real name, and it seemed to him that “Zheng Xuan” was a fake name.

  He tried his luck at Ming Hai’s Status, but it was the same.

  Smack!

  He did not want to waste his time with these two people anymore and killed them in one strike before proceeding to absorb their origin essence.

  “Xiao Xuan, huh…”


  Mumbling that name, Jiang Ming shook his head and went back to the Jiuyang Sect.
