258 Zhou Yuanba’s Scheme

Every world had a place where energy gathered to support the world as a whole.

This world was suppressed by the nine prefectures’ cauldrons.

The world’s origin was the source of life energy that the nine prefectures’ cauldron provided to all the living creatures in this world.

The world’s origin could grow on its own and would not be destroyed, but it could be exhausted.

Once half of the world’s origin was consumed, it would cause the vitality of the entire world’s living beings to weaken.

This was also the reason why the heavenly Dao had decided on the lightning punishment and caused the disaster. It was to maintain the balance of the world’s origin and to prevent the production of excessive living beings from consuming the world’s origin.

Back then, the martial arts experts of the Central Plains and the people of the sacred soul Island had come to an agreement to use the nine prefectures’ cauldron to seal Xu Fengyu. This also caused the nine prefectures’ cauldron to be broken.

“I’m sure you can see that this part of the world’s origin energy won’t endanger your life, but it can make your World God race unable to cultivate. You’ll stop here and lose the ability to live forever!” Zhou Yuanba paused for a moment before continuing.

Because the nine prefectures’ cauldrons were broken, they could no longer suppress Xu Fengyu. However, at the same time, the world’s origin was scattered, and the martial arts cultivation energy would be reduced.

There were only two paths in front of Xu Fengyu. He could either take the risk of gathering all the nine prefectures’ cauldrons or make the nine prefectures’ cauldrons disappear forever.

And his martial Dao achievements were destined not to be too high.

“Speak! What do you want?” Xu Fengyu closed his eyes and calmed himself down. When he opened his eyes again, he asked in a cold voice with a frosty expression.

“Is there anything despicable in this world? Just because the heavenly Dao has pitied you, you’re wreaking havoc and harming living beings. Aren’t you despicable? Of course, what you do has nothing to do with me, but the Young Lord is someone I must protect. Let us go and I’ll return the bronze fragment to you. How about it?” Zhou Yuanba sneered.

“Hmph! You’ve a good plan. Do you think that if I let him go, the others will? Do you think there’s only one World God? He has the strength to seal a World God, and he’s destined to die!” Xu Fengyu said softly.

There is not only one World God. Back then, Gu Mingzhou’s father had already proven he had the ability to defeat the World God, so this group of people would naturally not let him off.

Similarly, they would not let anyone who posed a threat go.

“Just let us go. You don’t need to worry about anything else!” Zhou Yuanba interrupted Xu Fengyu.

If he couldn’t even pass this obstacle, what future could he have?

Right now, only Xu Fengyu has appeared. Whether the other World Gods can escape or not, it’s still unknown.

“I can let him go, but how can I believe he will give me the fragment of the nine prefectures cauldron?” Xu Fengyu had obviously chosen to compromise, but he would not easily believe the other party’s words.

Zhou Yuanba frowned. His verbal promise was not enough to convince Xu Fengyu.

Furthermore, the other party was an old man who had lived for several hundred years. He was truly more intelligent than a monkey. It would be not easy to make him feel at ease.

But now, his hope lay in the bronze fragment.

“Let the Young Lord go, and I’ll stay as a hostage!” Zhou Yuanba’s compromise.

“No! Absolutely not!” Gu Mingzhou refused directly.

Although he had many doubts, he knew Zhou Yuanba would die if he stayed.

He wasn’t xu Fengyu’s match in the first place. If he could figure out how he awakened his energy, he might still have a chance.

If Zhou Yuanba died, he didn’t know if he could survive. It was a bad choice.

“Young Lord, this is the only way. Furthermore, it is my honor to exchange my life for your safety.” Zhou Yuanba said in an unquestionable tone.

“But!” Gu Mingzhou paused and said unwillingly.

He was interrupted by Zhou Yuanba.

“Young Lord, there’s no need to say anything. This subordinate has already made up his mind!” Zhou Yuanba said.

It wouldn’t be too late to capture him after his main body dealt with this demonic emissary and took back the world’s origin power.

He can’t escape from this world anyway, and as long as he’s still in this world, he can’t escape from my palm!

Xu Fengyu pondered and calculated in his heart for a moment before he answered.

“Good! You stay with the world’s origin, and I’ll let him go!”

After saying that, Xu Fengyu’s face once again showed a standard smile, but two rays of light flashed in his eyes. He waved his right hand behind him, and the void suddenly trembled.

Buzzzzzz!

The imprisonment that had imprisoned a radius of a hundred miles instantly disappeared.

“You can leave now!” Xu Fengyu looked at Gu Mingzhou and said, ”

“I’m not leaving. If I’m leaving, we’ll leave together! Moreover, his target is me, and it has nothing to do with you.” Gu Mingzhou clenched his fists, looked up at Xu Fengyu, and said in a clear voice.

Although he had not known Zhou Yuanba for long, he was unwilling to see Zhou Yuanba sacrifice himself to save him.

From the beginning to the end, Xu Fengyu’s target had been Gu Mingzhou.

Although he didn’t know if he was the Young Lord they were talking about, Xu Fengyu’s determination to kill him was very obvious.

On the other hand, Zhou Yuanba was dragged into this because he wanted to save him.

Therefore, Gu Mingzhou naturally did not agree to let him escape alone and let Zhou Yuanba stay behind to die.

Moreover, Zhou Yuanba mentioned that the realm Lord had a special skill to find anyone in his world instantly.

This meant that even if Gu Mingzhou escaped now and temporarily escaped from his predicament, it would still be difficult for him to escape Xu Fengyu’s pursuit.

It would be a waste of Zhou Yuanba’s life.

The outcome was still the same.

“Quick go, Young Lord! Otherwise, we’ll all wait for death!” under Gu Mingzhou’s opposition, Zhou Yuanba turned around and sighed. Before he finished speaking,

Without waiting for Gu Mingzhou’s reply, he pushed Gu Mingzhou with his right hand, wanting to send him away.

Just as Gu Mingzhou was about to retort, Zhou Yuanba pushed him, and a palm-sized object entered his body.

“If you head west, there’s an ancient battlefield ten thousand miles away. You can enter it with this token and leave this world temporarily. You can avoid the pursuit of the World God.”

Zhou Yuanba’s voice suddenly sounded in Gu Mingzhou’s mind. Without waiting for Gu Mingzhou to react, his right hand that was pushing Gu Mingzhou’s body suddenly released a ball of pitch-black pure elemental energy, which immediately wrapped around Gu Mingzhou.

“No!” Gu Mingzhou finally came back to his senses and shouted, wanting to resist with all his might.

However, it was too late. Zhou Yuanba’s pitch-black attack was so powerful that Gu Mingzhou could not stop it at all. He was taken away and shot towards the West.

Buzzzzzz!

The black light wrapped around Gu Mingzhou, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared from this sea.

“As you wished, I have already let him go. Give me the fragment!” Xu Fengyu said coldly as he looked at Gu Mingzhou, who quickly disappeared from his sight.

“There’s no hurry. We’ll wait until the Young Lord is completely out of danger.” Zhou Yuanba said calmly.

He had never intended to hand the item over to the other party. This was the last hope of the godfiend race and perhaps also the hope of mankind.
