Yan Di and the black-clothed Brocade Emperor could not coexist.
His conflict with the Upper Exalt Chen Qianhua was due to personal reasons.
Moreover, they did not have any personal grudges with the Southern High Peak's Qilin Cliff.
There were two main points of conflict.
Firstly, Yan Zhaoge had obtained the Dim Radiant Wheel, becoming the successor of the Dim Radiant Emperor Yin Tianxia.
Secondly, Yan Di's wife, Yan Zhaoge's mother, Xue Chuqing, had always been pursued by Southern High Peak's Qilin Cliff.
As for other matters, like Yan Zhaoge establishing the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion to help the Sword Sovereign, they were merely follow-up issues.
Through the black-clothed Brocade Emperor's reaction and the other party's various arrangements, Yan Zhaoge was now certain that the enemy's target was not him or the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion. In that case, it could only be his mother, Xue Chuqing.
All along, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di had been conscious of this.
It was very likely that the other party was trying to find Xue Chuqing through them.
Conversely, they also had a way to secretly pay attention to the other party's reactions, hoping to find Xue Chuqing's whereabouts through this.
From the looks of it now, the other party must have an accurate clue.
It was because of this that he had contacted the black-clothed Brocade Emperor and the Heaven Emperor to split their forces to temporarily stall Yan Zhaoge and the others.
"There has been no movement from the Northern Exalt's side. He is proficient in divination and was originally neutral. Now that he has suddenly interfered, it should be Chen Qianhua who cultivates in the Origin Heavenly Scripture!"
Various thoughts rapidly flashed through Yan Zhaoge's mind, "With Chen Qianhua helping to suppress mother's half of the River Diagram, it would be much easier for the Earth Exalt and the others to act."
"It's very likely that there are others involved. Daoist Oneheaven, Lang Qing, or even Lian Zulin …"
The black-clothed Brocade Emperor vaguely sensed that Yan Zhaoge had sent a sound transmission to someone else, just that he was unsure of the contents.
However, he didn't mind. The people who needed to consider this problem were Wang Zhengcheng and the others.
For the black-clothed Brocade Emperor, as long as he attempted to obstruct Yan Zhaoge here, he would have completed his deal.
As for his personal goal, it was Yan Zhaoge's Taiyi Fist.
He did not care whether Wang Zhengcheng and the others' plan could be completed or not.
While he had already tried his best to overestimate Yan Zhaoge's strength, the result still surpassed his expectations.
However, there was a difference between an immortal and a mortal after all. He wouldn't be in any danger, but the scene might be a little ugly.
However, compared to the current situation, the Black-clothed Brocade Emperor was more concerned about how he could force Yan Zhaoge to use the Taiyi Fist.
In addition, there was one more thing that he had to pay attention to.
The black-clothed Brocade Emperor did not even have to guess to know where Wang Pu had gone and what he had gone to do.
"This Yan is untalented. My Sword Dao cannot compare to Senior Brother Nie's, but I do know some sword techniques." Yan Zhaoge now said mildly, "While I am not a disciple of Jade Capital Crag, due to the urgency of the situation, I am temporarily borrowing the Origin Opening Sword. I believe that senior apprentice-uncle Yue will not blame me too much afterwards."
"Black-clothed Brocade Emperor, do you really think that you have plenty of time?"
"At the very least, we have plenty for now," The black-clothed Brocade Emperor was unmoved.
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Anyone would be able to guess that senior apprentice-brother Wang would return to Jade Capital Crag to retrieve the sword. There would definitely be people obstructing him along the way. It is just that you don't have too many people to spare, right?"
"Let me guess." As Yan Zhaoge spoke, he did not cease in his actions as he directly sent another palm descending towards the black-clothed Brocade Emperor, "The most likely person would probably be the Earth Spirit Lord, Li Junxin?"
"It's true that Li Junxin's cultivation and strength are above Senior Brother Wang's, but his speed might not be as fast as Senior Brother Wang. With some effort, Senior Brother Wang should be able to shake him off."
Yan Zhaoge struck out with a Heavenly Flipping Seal which the black-clothed Brocade Emperor parried with the Taiji Yin Yang Palm.
However, Yan Zhaoge's Great Shattering Brightness Fist immediately followed up, shattering that yin yang Taiji!
"So, Your Majesty, do you really have that much time?"
The black-clothed Brocade Emperor's figure spun as he appeared near and distant at times, "Since Little Friend Yan can guess so many things, you must be even more anxious than I am."
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge laughed, "That might not be the case."
It wasn't that the Yan Family didn't have any clues to search for Xue Chuqing. It was just that for the sake of Xue Chuqing's safety, they didn't want to do so.
Now that it had come to the point of life and death, Yan Zhaoge believed that as long as his father received the news, he would definitely not hold anything back.
By dispelling the power of the River Diagram, Chen Qianhua had made things easier for Wang Zhengcheng and the others as well as for Yan Di.
From a certain perspective, Yan Zhaoge, Yan Di and the others had also been waiting for this day!
Now, it all depended on who was faster and who could find Xue Chuqing first.
The black-clothed Brocade Emperor said no more as he executed the Grand Beginning Bright Emptiness Form, his figure turning as he evaded Yan Zhaoge's attack.
A lofty True Immortal was actually engaged in a battle of attrition with Yan Zhaoge now.
While he would leave after just a touch, if Yan Zhaoge wanted to ignore him and leave, his attacks would immediately become fierce and vicious.
The black-clothed Brocade Emperor refused to retreat in defeat as both sides fell into a stalemate.
Yan Zhaoge's expression was calm, his gaze dim and cold.
… …
At the same time, on the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory's Royal Reed Sea, the scenes from a few years ago replayed today.
The radiance of the originally bright and beautiful sky suddenly dimmed.
The sun, moon and stars lost their radiance simultaneously. It was not that night had devoured day. Instead, it was that the sky up above had shockingly turned into the great earth at this moment!
Below them was still the sea and beneath the seawater was the land. Now, however, the original sky had turned into the land as well.
At this moment, it was like there was no more sky as only the earth remained.
Below was the great earth, above was still the great earth.
The vast Royal Reed Sea that surged for tens of thousands of kilometres now seemed to be situated in an underground world as it was surrounded by mud.
As this familiar scene reappeared, everyone in the Royal Reed Sea unconsciously looked upwards.
There, an upside-down tree was rooted in the great earth up above.
It was verdant and lush, its branches and leaves flickering with green light as they enveloped the great earth above and below.
A formless pressure caused the world to fall silent as time and space seemed to freeze at this moment.
It was none other than the Heaven Emperor who had descended.
He was naturally paying attention to Broad Creed Mountain in the Spirit Inheritance Region of the Royal Reed Sea.
"Oh? Not only is Yan Zhaoge not here, that Yan Di is not here too? "The Heaven Emperor was rather taken aback.
Still, he was naturally happy to see this.
While he was only worried about Yan Zhaoge unleashing the Earth Mother Dao Ritual, if both Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di were not here, it would definitely be the most convenient way for him to obtain the Later Earth Text without any obstruction at all.
Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone would be unable to replace him in unleashing the Earth Mother Dao Ritual.
For the Heaven Emperor, the Later Earth Text was naturally the most important.
The upside-down tree that towered to the heavens vanished as a Daoist appeared in mid-air.
He wore an apricot yellow Daoist robe with a golden crown on his head and a crane cloak on his body. His face was like jade as he had three long strands of beard.
This was none other than the Lord of Kunlun Mountain's Illusory Coming Peak, the Heaven Emperor.
Thinking that his long-cherished wish could finally be fulfilled, even someone of the Heaven Emperor's mental state felt rather emotional.
Still, he suddenly halted just as he was about to stride forward.
Gazing back, the Heaven Emperor saw a crevice shockingly splitting open on the great earth up above that was formed of thick earth.
A sword-light surged from within the crevice, cleaving apart the great earth with the momentum of opening the heavens and splitting the earth!
