Chapter 688: ?
The Heaven Mystery Pavilion’s New Plan, A Dangerous Situation In the backyard, Li Nianfan was showing off his awesome bug-catching skills.
“Wow, Brother Li’s so awesome!
” “Quick, that one’s getting away!
Go, Brother Li, go!
” Nanan and Dragin’s eyes were full of excitement, and they kept cheering him on from the sidelines.
Li Nianfan was running across the vegetable patch with the bug-catching net in his hand.
He could catch at least one locust with each wave of the net.
At this time, more than thirty locusts had been captured, but a dozen were still flying around.
Dragin and Nanan’s cheers greatly satisfied Li Nianfan’s ego and because of that, he strived to work harder.
“Zero in on the bug and catch it quickly!
The locusts will have nowhere to hide as soon as the net of heaven earth is out.
There, I caught it!
” Li Nianfan laughed and with practiced movement, he caught another bug.
Nanan and Dragin looked at Li Nianfan earnestly.
In their eyes, Li Nianfan seemed to be following the will of Wisdom whenever he raised his hand.
Even time and space had to bow their heads to him.
No matter how extraordinary the locusts were, they could do nothing about the cage and could only helplessly stare out from the net.
They did not doubt that Li Nianfan was casting a kind of ultimate spell.
In a blink of an eye, four more locusts were caught.
“No, it’s not just the net.
There’s something odd about that man, too!
” “It’s terrible.
What kind of place is this?
I want to go home!
” “When did the seventh dimension become so scary?
Who exactly is this man?
I want my mummy!
Spare me—” Ye Xuan and Lei Bao were desperate and scared to death when they saw that most of their clones had been caught.
They would be dead once all their clones were caught!
“Shen Suanzi, this is all your fault!
You said that we’d be fine as long as one of our clones escaped.
The problem now is that none of them can escape!
” Li Nianfan ran toward the remaining bugs with the bug-catching net in his hand.
His momentum could even suppress the heavens.
The bugs never stood a chance.
“You’re so cool, Brother Li!
” “Catch them!
Don’t let them go!
” Nanan and Dragin continued to cheer him on.
“Hahaha, watch me closely now!
I’ll show you some cool tricks” said Li Nianfan proudly as he rushed toward the remaining locusts.
Soon, all the locusts were trapped in his net.
“That’s the last of them!
” Li Nianfan smiled and started to count the locusts in the net.
There were close to fifty of them!
Nanan and Dragin peered into the net and instantly felt disgusted at the sight of them.
Nanan frowned and said, “These pests are so ugly.
” “These pests are called locusts,” said Li Nianfan.
“Locusts?
Should we feed it to the peacock or chickens?
I bet they’ll like it,” suggested Dragin.
Having heard that, the peacock flew over and looked at them with eyes filled with anticipation.
It looked at this swarm of locusts with longing eyes in its eyes.
It could feel that this swarm of locusts contained strong power that would greatly benefit it.
Li Nianfan shook his head and said, “The peacock can have some and we can have the rest.
” “Huh?
We’re going to eat the bugs, too?
” “Is it even edible?
It looks so disgusting!
” asked the wide-eyed Nanan and Dragin with shock.
Li Nianfan laughed and said, “Did you know that locusts are a rare delicacy, especially when they’re fried?
Their taste far surpasses any ordinary delicacies.
” “Really?
” asked Nanan and Dragin doubtfully.
The two of them found it hard to accept what Li Nianfan said.
“Locusts are high in protein and low in fat.
They are not only nutritious but good for those who want to lose weight.
They’re much healthier than ordinary meat,” said Li Nianfan with the locusts in his hands.
“Let’s head back.
Little Daji and the rest of the girls should be done with their bath by now.
I’ll cook up a feast for you all!
” Fried locust was very easy to make.
Step one was to heat the oil.
Step two, one needed to remove its head, wings, and organs.
Step three was to deep fry it in the oil and step four, one could finish it off with a sprinkle of some cumin or chili powder.
The dish would then be done.
The outer texture should be crispy and the inside should be soft and fluffy.
It really was delicious and it was the perfect snack for drinking.
“Xiao Bai, go prep the locusts,” ordered Li Nianfan.
“Yes, my honorable Master,” said Xiao Bai and proceeded to carry the locusts to the chopping board.
The locusts were struggling and panicking.
“No, I’m going to die, I’m going to die, I’m going to die!
” “I saw the kitchen knife just now.
It’s over, we’re gonna be chopped into a million pieces!
” “The Origins Devouring Bug of the Heaven Mystery Sect is sh*t!
We’re nothing but food to them.
We might as well serve ourselves up on a golden platter!
” Soon, the sound of frying echoed through the yard, and at the same time, there was a fascinating smell of meat permeating the air.
“Wow, I didn’t expect this ugly thing to be so delicious.
” “Well, it’s hard on the outside and soft on the inside.
The Master said it has a lot of protein in it.
” “It’s so delicious.
More, please!
” “Hey, save some for the chickens and peacock.
Feeding them this will make their eggs healthier.
” Meanwhile, at the Heaven Mystery Pavilion in the fourth dimension, the vitality of Lei Bao, Ye Xuan, and Shen Suanzi were rapidly diminishing.
Even their Primordial Spirits were diminishing.
This was because they would lose a part of themselves whenever a single Origins Devouring Bug was dead.
At a certain moment, Ye Xuan began to tremble violently, as if all the energy in his body had been sucked dry.
He collapsed to the ground and with a soft poof, he turned into a mound of yellow dust.
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Immediately afterward, the same thing happened to Lei Bao, and another Wisdom Elite was wiped out just like that.
“It’s a good thing I sent them to do some reconnaissance first.
Things are really strange over in the seventh dimension,” said the old pavilion master.
In the depths of the Heaven Mystery Pavilion, a whirlpool appeared in the old pavilion master’s eyes like a black hole.
He raised his hand and slashed at the void.
This slash seemed to have broken some kind of cause and effect.
Shen Suanzi’s body jerked and blood sprayed out of his mouth.
All the colors had been drained out of his face and he was trembling as if he had lost all strength.
“Thank you for saving me, master,” he panted fearfully.
If the old pavilion master had not cut off his connection with the last Origins Devouring Bug, he would have ended up with the same fate as Ye Xuan and Lei Bao.
It had never crossed his mind that one day, as a Wisdom Elite, he would ever feel this vulnerable.
Death had never been so close to him.
The seventh dimension was truly terrifying.
The old pavilion master’s voice echoed in the air, “What happened?
What did you see?
Tell me everything.
” “Master, there’s a big secret hidden in the seventh dimension.
There’s an extraordinary four-part architecture there…” Shen Suanzi told the old pavilion master everything he saw and heard.
His voice became shaky whenever he mentioned Li Nianfan.
“There really isn’t any Spiritual Qi fluctuation in that man but there’s no doubt he’s really powerful.
He’s probably a level higher than a Wisdom Elite!
” The old pavilion master had a gleeful glint in his eyes and in an amused tone, he said “Hahaha, I’ve got to hand it to the seventh dimension!
A four-part architecture with infinite possibilities and the will of Wisdom?
Only the Origins of Dimension could do that!
“You’re right.
That man’s definitely above a Wisdom Elite and is probably in the state of the ultimate existence in all of the seven dimensions.
“Looks like there isn’t a lack of talented fighters in the seventh dimension.
He must’ve entered the state of the ultimate existence after sensing the impending catastrophe that’s going befall the seventh dimension soon.
” Shen Suanzi was slightly surprised.
“The seventh dimension’s Wisdom?
No wonder the four-part architecture’s so powerful.
” “There are a lot of restrictions after a person enters the state of ultimate existence.
There’s only one ending if a person who’s brought to that state is disturbed, and that ending’s death.
It’s a very risky move,” said the old pavilion master with a cold smile on his face.
He paused before continuing, “This is akin to exposing the location of the seventh dimension’s Origins to me!
How can I ever forgive myself if I don’t devour it now?
Hahaha!
His tone was full of joy.
He did not expect to catch such a big fish with the stamp as bait.
Yes, there was no denying one would be very powerful once entered the state of ultimate existence but correspondingly, it would be extremely dangerous if one was exposed.
The old pavilion master need not fear the Eldtrichs anymore once he had devoured the seventh dimension’s Origins.
‘By then, the other dimensions’ Origins will be as good as mine!
I’ll be the ultimate winner!
’ “The intel gained during this reconnaissance proved to be very useful.
Ye Xuan and Lei Bao should rest easy knowing their deaths had been worthwhile,” said the old pavilion master.
Then, he ordered, “Shen Suanzi, go to the Ye Clan and Lightning Sect and come up with a new plan with them.
” After a while, Shen Suanzi left the Heaven Mystery Pavilion.
At this time, the Ye Clan and Lightning Sect were thrown into chaos, for they could not sense Ye Xuan’s and Lei Bao’s aura anymore.
All Wisdom Elites possessed the amazing ability to enshroud their homes or sects with the aura of Wisdom.
There were only two possibilities to explain the disappearance of the aura—one, the Wisdom Elite removed the aura themselves, and two, the Wisdom Elite was dead.
“How could this be?
Go to the temple of the ancestor.
” The members of the Ye Clan were panicking and they quickly went to the temple where their ancestor had isolated himself, with Master Ye leading the way.
It was usually forbidden for them to go without the ancestor’s permission but these were dire times.
Their eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when they opened the door.
The jade bed where the Ye ancestor was meditating had split in half.
The jade bed had been baptized by the Wisdom Elite and was connected to the Qi of the Ye ancestor, so how could it be split in half?
A monstrous chill ran up all of their spines, causing them to shiver uncontrollably.
“An—ancestor!
” “How could this be?
This cannot be happening!
It must all be a mistake!
” “No, the ancestor’s a Wisdom Elite.
There’s no way he could die so easily!
” “What the h*ll’s going on?
What does the annihilation of the Murong Clan have anything to do with our ancestor?
” They could not accept that all had been lost.
Master Ye immediately made a decision.
“Go, go to Murong’s house to investigate, we must figure out what happened!
” he said solemnly.
However, Shen Suanzi arrived at Ye manor just as all the members of the Ye Clan were about to leave.
“Master ye, great calamity has fallen on the fourth dimension.
I’d like to express my deepest condolences on the death of your ancestor, Ye Xuan,” said Shen Suanzi.
His words crushed the last glimmer of hope of the members of the Ye Clan.
“Is our ancestor really dead?
How could this be?
What happened?
” asked Master Ye hoarsely with red eyes.
“The seventh dimension’s to blame for his death!
Your ancestor isn’t the only one who has fallen.
Even Lei Bao from the Lightning Sect, the whole Murong Clan, and the Demon Emperor died at the hands of the people from the seventh dimension!
” said Shen Suanzi gravely.
“What?!
” “D*mn those people from the seventh dimension!
” “What’s going to happen to the Eastern Wasteland now that all the Wisdom Elites are gone?
” Everyone was feeling fearful and furious at the same time.
“Senior Suanzi, how did the people from the seventh dimension come here?
” asked Master Ye.
“There’s a portal connecting the fourth and seventh dimension located in the Eastern Wasteland.
We should be very cautious of the seventh dimension for they possess a terrible and strange secret,” replied Shen Suanzi.
The members of the Ye Clan’s hearts fell.
They knew Shen Suanzi’s words to be true for how was it possible for so many Wisdom Elites to be killed in such a short time?
Master Ye pondered for a moment and asked, “What’s the Heaven Mystery Pavilion going to do?
” “As far as I know, the people from the seventh dimension are guarding the portal’s entrance.
We need to join forces to capture them and interrogate them.
” Shen Suanzi’s eyes seemed to be staring into the distance.
“Don’t worry, that group isn’t that strong” Master Ye nodded and said, “We’ll join you!
We need to avenge our ancestor’s death!
” Subsequently, Shen Suanzi went to the Lightning Sect and in the same way, invited the members of the sect to join forces with him.
The atmosphere of the entire Eastern Wasteland suddenly became depressed and solemn.
That day, at the Tiandang Mountain, Yang Jing and the Heavenly Soldiers were guarding the portal as usual.
Everyone was well aware of making sure no one entered the portal without their permission, so they made sure to keep themselves motivated so no one dared to slack off.
The third eye on Yang Jing’s forehead blinked from time to time, sending out signals of uneasiness as a warning.
However, he did not detect anything unusual after scanning his surroundings.
Gu Yuan came over to him and in a concerned voice asked, “General Yang, what’s wrong?
” Gu Yuan was the grandfather of Gu Changqing that Li Nianfan knew in the mortal world when he was still in the Prehistoric era.
He was the first to give the expert the flock of Firefinches that were in the expert’s yard.
He kept bragging about it to anyone within earshot.
He still remembered when he told the Firefinches he would be giving them good luck.
They initially ignored him, but now they could not be more grateful to him.
It was also because of his relationship with Li Nianfan that every time the Heavenly Palace came across an opportunity, he would always receive some part of it.
Due to that, he had become a Saint as well as Yang Jing’s deputy.
Yang Jing frowned and said, “Lately, I keep having this feeling like something big’s going to happen soon.
Instruct the others to be more vigilant.
” As soon as he said that, a surge of powerful auras rushed out like tidal waves.
Then, a group of figures shot out from a distance and appeared in front of them in the blink of an eye.
Yang Jing and his men were completely surrounded.
“There’s really a portal to the seventh dimension here!
Are you all from the seventh dimension?
” asked Master Ye as he shot daggers at Yang Jing and his men with his eyes.
His voice was filled with killing intent.
Yang Jing and Gu Yuan gasped and glanced at each other.
“We’ve been discovered by the fourth dimension!
” The leader of the Lightning Sect was a blue-faced muscular man.
He waved his hand and shouted, “You’ll pay for killing my master!
I’m going to raze the seventh dimension to the ground!
Lock this place up and spare no one!
”
