Although Chen Yi's substitute main-body divine sense wasn't particularly robust—containing only twenty percent of his primordial spirit power—Ling Xiao was currently too preoccupied with Wuji's surveillance to reinforce his severely eroded will imprint. As a result, his attacks lacked force and truly couldn't suppress Chen Yi's divine sense's brute-force charge!
In a careless moment, Ling Xiao lost 1% of his share in the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk.
At present, apart from the 30% of the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk sealed by the Heaven-Earth Wuji Qiankun Seal (which remained immovable), Ling Xiao only retained 34%. Meanwhile, that damned freak had seized 21%, and with the 30% immovable share also under his influence, the moment the Heaven-Earth Wuji Qiankun Token collapsed, he would gain absolute control over the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk!
How could this be allowed?!
"Wretched fiend! You merely escaped a strand of divine sense from beneath the Heaven-Earth Wuji Qiankun Seal by luck. Do you truly believe this Emperor can do nothing to you?!"
As he spoke, he turned to the Little Golden Dragon: "Creation, watch closely. After I expel this vile creature attempting to seize your body, I will compensate you properly!"
The moment his words fell—
He moved!
A translucent dharma avatar erupted with surging flames of primordial will, each flicker of flame seemingly carrying ancient scriptures!
Ling Xiao formed hand seals, and in an instant, the phantom of a golden ancient bell materialized, emitting a crisp hum as soundwaves solidified and surged toward Chen Yi's divine sense!
"Halberd, come!"
Chen Yi's divine sense let out a clear cry, and the phantom of the Calamity-Reigning Halberd instantly coalesced in his grip. With a sweeping motion, he unleashed a crescent slash!
Hum!
The halberd's shadow split the rolling soundwaves cleanly down the middle!
Yet Ling Xiao's dharma avatar remained sharp-eyed. With a wave of his hand, the vast soundwaves instantly disintegrated into countless particles, bypassing the halberd and pelting Chen Yi's divine sense like rain!
Hum! Hum! Hum!
Chen Yi's divine sense trembled violently under the assault, forced to retreat step by step until he plunged the halberd into the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk, anchoring himself firmly to barely stabilize his stance.
"Heh, you’ve got some skill, I’ll give you that. But trying to drive me out? Can you? You couldn’t back then either!"
Ling Xiao: ?
Why did that sound so familiar?
"I only kept you around because you were useful. Now you’re nothing but a strand of divine sense—get out of here!"
Ling Xiao’s dharma avatar narrowed his eyes, and the golden bell phantom behind him abruptly transformed into a massive rotating disk. In an instant, it radiated starlight brilliance, surging like an inverted celestial river with crushing momentum, bearing down on Chen Yi’s divine sense!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The roaring brilliance forced Chen Yi’s divine sense into continuous retreat, his controlled regions of the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk being stripped away relentlessly!
"Enough!"
At that moment, the Little Golden Dragon, who had been standing by idly, suddenly shouted. With a wave of its hand, the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk flared, dissolving Ling Xiao’s offensive completely!
"You... you’re helping him?!" Ling Xiao stared at the Little Golden Dragon in disbelief. "Why? I’ve been sincere in aiding you—why side with another?!"
The Little Golden Dragon fell silent for a moment before enunciating each word: "I don’t trust you."
Ling Xiao’s face twisted in sorrow. "If not for this fiend’s interference, I would have already returned your body to you. Isn’t that proof enough of my sincerity? What more do you want from me? What else must I do?!"
"Take this halberd strike!"
Having steadied himself, Chen Yi’s divine sense charged back into the fray.
But this time, Ling Xiao’s dharma avatar didn’t resist, allowing his opponent to plunder his territory while continuing to gaze mournfully at the Little Golden Dragon.
"See how ruthless this fiend is? If I’m gone, do you think you can handle him alone?"
Hearing this, the Little Golden Dragon’s eyes lit up.
Finally!
Finally, things were back on script! Otherwise, it wouldn’t have known how to keep up the act!
"Fiend, stand down!" the Little Golden Dragon feigned intervention.
"You lecturing me? Who do you think you are?!" Chen Yi, as the mastermind, played his part perfectly, pressing the assault.
"You dare disrespect it? Arrogant!" Ling Xiao seized the chance to posture, suppressing Chen Yi in an attempt to win back the Little Golden Dragon’s favor.
"Enough with the fake concern. You disgust me!"
"I know it’s my fault. You don’t have to forgive me, but this is between us—we can’t let this freak interfere!"
"Blah blah blah, what nonsense are you spouting? Take this halberd!"
"You’re courting death!"
"Stop it, both of you! Stop fighting!"
"......"
Chen Yi and Ling Xiao battled fiercely over the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk’s territories, while the Little Golden Dragon played referee with blatant bias, creating utter chaos.
Then—
A notification from the chat group below suddenly popped up.
[Ding! It’s time for the daily distribution of the Chat Group Power Rankings rewards. This round totals 1.5 million Immortal Yuan Stones. The records have been archived and verified with no irregularities. Proceed with distribution now?]
Ling Xiao: "......"
Chen Yi: "......"
Little Golden Dragon: "......"
The three of them had been locked in a life-and-death struggle for control of the Primordial Chaos Creation Disk, yet the chat group below continued operating as usual.
Under normal circumstances, the default would be automatic distribution.
But was this situation normal?
Second shareholder Chen Yi didn’t hesitate. "Denied! No, no, no! Those Immortal Yuan Stones are mine—no one’s taking them!"
Majority shareholder Ling Xiao’s expression darkened. "You don’t get to decide. What does any of this have to do with you? A mere first-rate bandit dares overreach? Distribute them now!"
[Command conflict detected. Command conflict......]
Since neither shareholder held over 51%, simultaneous orders only triggered a system error.
The next moment, both turned to the Little Golden Dragon.
"You there! Support me as the decision-maker, and I won’t attack you. Otherwise... I’ll beat you to death!" Chen Yi’s divine sense threatened.
Ling Xiao adopted a kindly tone. "Creation, don’t be afraid. He’s no real threat. I respect your choice—approve or deny, it’s up to you. If you speak, I’ll return all my shares to you. I’ll even help expel this fiend so you’ll never have to worry again. I truly regret my actions... Give me a chance to make amends—"
"Ling Xiao, shut up!" The Little Golden Dragon regarded him coldly. "I approve the distribution—not for you, but for the group members. Your behavior sickens me."
[Command validated. Retrieving Immortal Yuan Stones for distribution.]
"Fine, fine! So you two are in cahoots? Just wait—you’ll pay for this!" Chen Yi’s divine sense trembled with rage before retreating to his secured zone, warily observing them as if fearing a joint attack.
Bro, you’re overdoing it—this doesn’t look like acting anymore. Trust me, I don’t believe him, I only trust you... The Little Golden Dragon grew flustered and mimicked Chen Yi’s divine sense, hunkering down defensively.
As long as it didn’t misspeak, it wouldn’t slip up!
With both sides now turtled up, Ling Xiao lacked the strength to turn the tide. He dispersed his dharma avatar, reverting to a will imprint to conserve energy, guarding his last foothold fiercely—this monstrous freak would advance no further!
"Fine, just wait. Once my true form breaks free from Wuji's encirclement and I have a free hand, you two are in for a world of pain!"
And so, the three-way standoff settled into an eerie equilibrium.
Ling Xiao couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off, but with his true self severed by Wuji deep within the River of Time, he couldn’t investigate further. For now, he had no choice but to play along.
Little did he know, his instincts were right!
Because at that very moment, the deactivated "Multiverse Travelers’ Mutual Aid Group No. 98" had been quietly reinstated—and behind his back, "Pickled Fish" and "Damn Tribulation Still Chasing Me" were already chatting up a storm!
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too.
