Xing Tong explains the history and rules of the Forbidden Spirit Dao Palace to Yang Chen, revealing its chaotic past openings and the restriction to Heavenly Fate Realm Early Stage and below to prevent overwhelming conflicts. She proposes he help her enter to achieve breakthrough to the Heavenly Fate Realm and secure a piece of the rare Origin Essence, which surpasses Jiyu Essence in value. Yang Chen agrees conditionally and plans to disguise as an Insect Race member for secrecy. Returning to the group, Yue Xing True Person outlines a bold strategy: Xing Tong distracts one Ghost King, allowing Yang Chen to launch an unexpected assault on the other.

"Half an hour?"

As soon as these words reached their ears, Yue Xingzhenren and Yang Chen both began contemplating right away.

Yue Xingzhenren felt a touch of hesitation, yet he voiced his thoughts nonetheless, "In half an hour, I’ll draw out the other Ghost King, Brother Yang Chen. Once we unite our efforts then, we can’t let them have any opening and should exhaust all methods to slay them. Once they’re eliminated, we’ll hold the upper hand in future clashes."

Yang Chen responded too, "No problem!"

Yue Xingzhenren let out a booming laugh, "Yang Chen, you’ve not only rescued me on this occasion, but I must ask for your aid once more. I’ve made up my mind—no share of this Jiyu Essence for me; it’s yours entirely!"

"How could I possibly accept that?" Yang Chen exclaimed in surprise, "Even if you’re fine with it, how would I justify the rewards to your subordinates?"

"Hahaha, I’ve got loads of Jiyu Essence with me still. Won’t that suffice for handing out to my subordinates?" Yue Xingzhenren chuckled loudly.

Yang Chen couldn’t restrain his own laughter, "That still doesn’t sit right!"

"Ah? Yang Chen, are you aiming to create some separation between us? If you persist in declining, I’ll start believing you view me as no friend." Yue Xingzhenren stated gravely.

At these words, Yang Chen had no choice but to yield helplessly and reply, "Very well, since Senior Yue Xing holds this junior in such esteem, I’ll accept with gratitude."

"Now that’s the spirit." Yue Xingzhenren roared with laughter.

To him, withholding all the merit from Yang Chen would leave him burdened with heavy remorse.

In the end, without Yang Chen’s rescue, he’d never have gotten another shot at combat!

At present, for him, throwing himself into a thrilling fight and unleashing his pent-up grudge was already a precious opportunity!

"Everyone, prepare yourselves. A major clash awaits us soon. Once your wounds are mended, we depart in two months for a final showdown against the Netherworld Ghosts here on Ice and Fire Star." Yue Xingzhenren declared, his voice thick with killing intent.

The assembled powerhouses, upon hearing him, surged with warlike zeal and set about treating their injuries while readying for the epic fight.

...

Just like that, the mighty figures regained their vigor, and moments slipped by in a flash. Suddenly, a handful of months had elapsed.

Such a span of months meant nothing more than an instant for those who practiced cultivation.

Then, after those months, every powerhouse from the Ice and Fire Sky Phoenix stronghold mobilized, aiming directly at the haunts of Zhen Gong Ghost King and Wind and Thunder Ghost King.

Zhen Gong Ghost King and Wind and Thunder Ghost King proved shrewd, picking up on the odd vibes, so they pulled back all the Ghost Kings stationed beyond, retaining merely a sparse few Ghost King Experts on watch.

Yet, the very next day, those on patrol among the Ghost King Experts disappeared in a baffling manner, utterly gone without a trace.

Zhen Gong Ghost King and Wind and Thunder Ghost King witnessed every bit of it plainly.

It took viewing this for Zhen Gong Ghost King and Wind and Thunder Ghost King to grow truly vigilant.

That said, the human powerhouses planned no covert strikes. Days after, their contingent showed up boldly overhead of the stronghold,

Spearheading the group were Yue Xingzhenren and Star Red Worm Mother.

"Hahaha, Zhen Gong Ghost King, Wind and Thunder Ghost King, quit skulking and come face me." Yue Xingzhenren bellowed.

At the sound of Yue Xingzhenren’s voice, the pair of mighty Ghost Kings hastened into the air.

These pair of formidable Ghost Kings turned out to be none other than Zhen Gong Ghost King and Wind and Thunder Ghost King.

Zhen Gong Ghost King spoke in an icy tone, mocking with a laugh, "Yue Xingzhenren, I truly never anticipated you’d bounce back so fast after ages as a captive. What, having returned home for a while, do you yearn for this spot and crave another round of imprisonment under our watch?"

The barbs from Zhen Gong Ghost King stung sharply, prodding straight at Yue Xingzhenren’s raw nerve.

Still, Yue Xingzhenren harbored a deep scheming mind, so being riled up so simply by Zhen Gong Ghost King was out of the question.

He stuck to his strategy.

Yue Xingzhenren snickered, "I do long for you both, but as for whether you can cage me once more as your captive, that depends on your actual prowess."

Wind and Thunder Ghost King guffawed, "Yue Xingzhenren, I wondered who you’d called to pull you from our grasp, and it’s this Worm Mother. Hmph, looks like Four-direction Ghost King fell from sheer recklessness, but do you honestly believe this Worm Mother matches a Heaven-appointed Realm Expert in value?"

Yue Xingzhenren, arms folded behind, chuckled, "Why not test it yourselves and see?"

These words genuinely startled Zhen Gong Ghost King and Wind and Thunder Ghost King. To deny any wariness would be dishonest, especially with Four-direction Ghost King’s fresh death staring them in the face. One slip in caution, and they could be the next to perish.

Nevertheless, with adversaries knocking at their door, fleeing wasn’t an option.

Wind and Thunder Ghost King huffed, "Fine, let’s see what this Worm Mother is capable of."

Saying so, he advanced and charged right at Star Tung.

To align with their scheme, Star Tung kept a steady facade, projecting self-assurance.

She moved without delay, summoning forth the Insect Race in her command.

Even so, for all her serene show, the chasm separating her from the Heaven-appointed Realm stayed unbridgeable. Her Insect Races held the edge in numbers, yet in actual combat, the difference loomed enormous.

This realization gladdened Wind and Thunder Ghost King, convincing him that Star Tung wasn’t so formidable after all.

After all, they’d shared Ice and Fire Star with Star Tung for a good stretch, making it impossible to remain clueless about her strengths.

But shortly, Zhen Gong Ghost King warned, "Watch yourself—this Star Tung managed to slay Four-direction Ghost King, so she surely hides some aces up her sleeve. Avoid repeating Four-direction Ghost King’s mistake."

With this alert, Wind and Thunder Ghost King ceased underestimating her. Seizing Star Tung might’ve taken mere seconds before, but his wariness now rendered a swift capture unfeasible.

After advising Wind and Thunder Ghost King, Zhen Gong Ghost King dashed straight toward Yue Xingzhenren.

"Yue Xingzhenren, face my strike!" Zhen Gong Ghost King unleashed a savage assault.

In a flash, fierce fighting broke out across both factions.

Yue Xingzhenren took on Zhen Gong Ghost King, Star Tung met Wind and Thunder Ghost King, and the rest of the elites battled the Netherworld’s Heaven-separated Ghost Kings.

For the moment, the human forces suffered a heavy setback.

In terms of Heaven-separated realm specialist count or their overall might, they came up short.

Yue Xingzhenren took in the whole scene sharply, and unease seized him briefly.

After all, he understood his fighting ability intimately, realizing that even in one-on-one, as a Heaven-appointed realm expert, he fell just a bit short against either of the two Heaven-appointed Ghost Kings.

Spotting their edge, Zhen Gong Ghost King jeered, "Yue Xingzhenren, is that the extent of your power? Hahaha, seems like you’ve shown up today just to meet your end!"

Yue Xingzhenren brushed him off and wheeled suddenly to escape.

Upon seeing Yue Xingzhenren try to bolt, Zhen Gong Ghost King’s slaying urge boiled over, and he pursued without hesitation.
