Given Ji Ning’s personality, he generally wouldn’t lose control of himself like this. The fact that he did was a testament to how excited he was. Ninedust had beenpeting against three other supreme Daolords; there was a very high chance that he would fail. Of course Ning was excited by his sess!


    “He was actually the one to obtain it?” Daolord Tigrone was so angry he gnashed his teeth.


    “I was just about to stop him when he transformed into an endless wave.” Fiendqueen Dustrain ground her teeth angrily as well. She had arrived at the altar at just the nick of time, but she still hadn’t been able to intervene.


    Whoosh. After acquiring the talisman, the Ninedust Sectlord transformed into a vast wave that surged out and reformed into human form atop the tri-colored chain. He endured the pain as he quickly walked across the tri-colored chains to the seven-colored chains where Ning was awaiting him.


    “I didn’t let you down, Darknorth. Haha! I, Ninedust, am quite capable,” Ninedust said smugly. As he spoke, he handed the threemand talismans he had in his position over to Ning. “Here, take’m.” Ninedust was in an excellent mood right now. He had owed Ning a huge favor when thetter had let him take the Voidsea Jadeseal; given his arrogant temperament, he really felt rather ufortable owing Ning so much. Now that he was able to make some reparations, he immediately felt much better.


    “Thank you.” Ning immediately epted all three talismans without being shy. They truly were quite important to him.


    Whoosh. Rainbow light appeared in the skies above them, condensing into the towering and white-robed figure of Realmsoul Polo. The realmsoul stared down at them and boomed, “Daolords, the Voidsea Jadeseals and themand talismans needed for harvesting the fruit have all been taken. If you wish to fight each other for them, feel free. Those who wish to harvest the fruit can take themand talismans to the corresponding Grovekeepers, who have alreadye. If you wish to leave, you can do so upon exiting the Crimsonwave Temple. I’ve already set up a spatial tunnel outside Crimsonwave Temple that lets you exit from the Waveshift Realm.”


    “We have to be careful. Let’s go trade for the fruit right away,” Ning said cautiously.


    “Yes, let’s go.” Ninedust nodded.


    ......


    Ning’s worry was that everyone else would fight him over hismand talismans, as he had a total of six of them. However, his guess was wrong. Those weaker supreme Daolords were not capable of tying him down; they simply weren’t powerful enough to take things from him. As for the stronger ones, all of them went to fight over the Voidsea Jadeseals.


    “So even the finalmand talisman has been taken? I need to speed this up.” Winesage frowned. Arge number of Daolords had gathered atop the stony ind before the second abyss, including the likes of Pce Lord Dawnstar, Pce Lord Cloudwalker, Ninestone, Snowjoy, Shaka, King Paleos, Daolord Skyshatter, Daolord Owlck, Daolord Dreamlore, and even the Radiant King, who had returned to try his luck.


    In short, arge group of the most elite Daolords in the Endless Territories had arrived.


    Boom!


    Winesage had been shoved to the sidelines. He was so powerful that no one else wanted to work with him, putting him in an awkward situation.


    “This is the right moment!” Winesage suddenly produced an extremely ordinary-looking dart that was roughly half the size of his palm. The dart didn’t seem unusual in any way; in fact, none of the battling Daolords sensed anything amiss at all.


    Swish!


    The dart suddenly shot out, bringing with it a terrifying aura of power that caused all of the many battling supreme Daolords to feel their hearts tremble.


    “Not good.”


    “Careful.”


    “Dodge!” The subconscious terror they felt caused all of them to know that something bad was happening. By now, all of them saw the object which had inspired terror in them... that streak of dazzlingly fast light.


    As soon as the dart had shot out, Winesage had shot out as well behind it.


    “No!” Daolord Feich’s face turned ashen as he stared at the terrifying dart fly towards him. He almost instantly produced a round, glowing mirror in his hands. Crack! The surface of the mirror shattered, causing a muchrger mirror to appear right in front of him.


    Ever since he had acquired the Voidsea Jadeseal, he had been hunted by others. Although the Radiant King and the other Daolords in his group had all sworn lifeblood oaths to defend each other regardless of who acquired the seal, there was a limit to how hard they had to fight. As a result, Daolord Feich had encountered quite a few dangerous situations. This was his veryst life-saving treasure.


    Swish! The streak of light shot into the mirror. The mirror instantly cracked and thenpletely shattered into tiny pieces. The streak of light continued to shoot forwards, stabbing straight into Daolord Feich’s body.


    Whoosh. Daolord Feich’s immediately transformed into a mass of gray mist.


    “Ahhhhhhh! W-what the hell is this?!” An agonized scream rang out from the gray mist, followed by the mist reforming into a corpse. Daolord Feich’s corpse.


    Winesage had been flying directly behind that streak of light. As soon as Daolord Feich’s corpse appeared, Winesage waved his hand and immediately collected it.


    “Hmph. You should feel proud to have died to my ‘cycleseed dart’.” Winesage hadn’t really been willing to use this treasure, as it was the most powerful killer weapon he had at his disposal. Even people as powerful as the eight lords of the Sacred Cities would probably be heavily wounded if struck! After he acquired the Universe treasure in the Terror Starsea, the Universe treasure had guided him to another ancient battle-site of the Dawn War, where he had acquired two mighty relics. The ‘cycleseed dart’ was one of the two, and it was an extremely venomous and insidious treasure.


    Daolord Feich hadn’t been strong enough, and so he had almost instantly died once hit.


    “For the sake of the Voidsea Jadeseal, everything is worth it.” Winesage only felt a sense of jubtion. He had been alive for far too long, over a hundred thousand chaos cycles. He had braved many dangers over these years for the sake of his Daomerge! Now that the Voidsea Jadeseals had appeared, he would be willing to pay any price to acquire them.


    “With the help of two Voidsea Jadeseals, my chances at seeding with the Daomerge shall be greatly improved.” Winesage turned to sweep his gaze across the many Daolords. All of them, including Dawnstar, the Radiant King, Dreamlore, and Paleos were all staring at him nervously.


    That treasure he had disyed was far too terrifying! Although Daolord Feich only had an imperfect ‘invulnerable form’ which had merely been on par with that of Timedream, one must remember that Ning had spent an inordinate amount of time before he had killed Timedream! Just now, however, Daolord Feich had been in in an instant. How could everyone not feel stunned?


    “It’s impressive that he had even a single treasure like that. I refuse to believe Winesage has another one,” the Radiant King sent mentally.


    “Right.”


    “And we’re much stronger than Feich.” Daolord Owlck’s eyes glowed with savage light.


    “I would’ve knocked that streak of light aside with just a single strike.” Daolord Dreamlore’s eyes gleamed with madness as well. “Winesage has TWO of the Voidsea Jadeseals, and he hasn’t had the chance to use any of them. Both of them are still on him. Attack!”


    “Attack!”


    “Kill him.”


    All the Daolords moved at the same time. They didn’t care about Ji Ning at all right now. Sixmand talismans? Even if Ning had all nine, they would still view a single Voidsea Jadeseal as being far more valuable... and Winesage had two of them!


    “They actually are attacking?” As soon as the Daolords began to attack, Winesage gritted his teeth and began to flee.


    ......


    A ck earth golem was chatting with Ning and Ninedust.


    “Senior, here is the ninthmand talisman.” Ning produced the relevant talisman.


    “Yes.” The Grovekeeper lowered his head to look at it, then reached out to ept it. Instantly, one arm after another began to emerge from the vast ck earth back in the first world and started to harvest the fruits from the manyrge, semi-translucent trees nearby. The ck arms pulled the fruit into the earth, then caused them to reappear next to the Grovekeeper. Every single tree only had a single fruit. The fruit was semi-translucent as well, with a faint reddish tinge to them. When Ning and Ninedust looked at the red glow, they felt their hearts grow peaceful.


    “A total of three hundred fruits.” The Grovekeeper looked at Ning. “These are known as the coldme cauldron fruits, and they are priceless beyondpare. Even in unique ces like Crimsonwave Pce, they take 100,000 chaos cycles to ripen.”


    “Understood.” Ning stared at the three hundred fruits flying towards him, then waved his hand and collected all of them.


    “Come, let’s go over there.” Ning led Ninedust towards yet another one of the Grovekeepers who had appeared in the third world.


    ‘Darknorth, look over there!” Ninedust hurriedly pointed off into the distance.


    “Wow.” Ning was surprised. “What’s going on with Winesage? How’d he piss off all the Daolords and get them to attack him?”


    Every single Daolord was pursuing and attacking Winesage! This was primarily because Winesage had never chosen to ally with any of the other Daolords. Ning had once invited Winesage to join forces with him, but Winesage had been too proud to do so.


    Poor Winesage.


    “Forget him. Let’s go harvest that fruit,” Ning said. As he spoke, he and Ninedust flew towards the seventh Grovekeeper and asked him to harvest the fruit from the seventhmand talisman.


    Boom! Winesage was incredibly strong, and his Universe treasure gave him the strength he needed to endure. With each sh, four or five supreme Daolords were sent flying. However, the other supreme Daolords continued their pursuit, even tossing out Dao-seals and other treasures.


    “I have to stand within this diagram for ten seconds before I’ll be sent back to the second world?” Winesage ground his teeth. “Why do I have to wait this long?”


    “Winesage, there’s no chance you’ll be able to stand there for ten seconds.”


    “You won’t be able to escape.”


    The many supreme Daolords were all working together to assault Winesage, giving him no chance to defeat them individually at all. Given how many people were assaulting him, it was simply impossible for Winesage to stand there without moving for ten seconds. How was he supposed to escape? If this continued, he’d eventually be defeated. But was he supposed to actually hand over the Voidsea Jadeseal? He wasn’t willing to!


    Winesage suddenly saw two figures off in the distance who were chatting with the Grovekeeper in a leisurely fashion. It was Ning and Ninedust.


    “Darknorth, give me a hand!” Winesage sent frantically.
