Southern Zhan State, within the Divine Gold Mine’s Enemy-breaking Camp, in a large courtyard.
Wearing a pair of large shorts, with a lazy deanor, Wu ng lay on a deck chair in the courtyard. Suddenly, with a swish, he bounced up.
"After so many years without any news, has that bastard Chen Hai finally decided to show himself?"
Back then, using a Substitute Puppet, Wu ng narrowly escaped with his life and has been hiding in the mine all these years.
Feeling that the wilderness outside was too dangerous, he found the mine to be comparatively safer and spent most of his ti holed up in the courtyard, rarely venturing out.
Even though he still held the position of a squad leader within the Enemy-breaking Camp, he was a very incompetent one, having been completely sidelined by his subordinates. He was regarded as a significant embarrassnt by the other squad leaders in the camp.
Every ti he faced mockery and ridicule from his peers, he wore a simple smile and laughed it off.
After hiding for so many years, the severely depleted powers he once had have finally recovered completely, returning him to his peak.
Certain things he could endure, but so hatred he kept etched in his heart and would never forget.
The humiliation that Chen Hai inflicted upon him had long beco a heart demon within him.
Unless this person was dealt with, he could find no peace; even when he tried to enter seclusion for peaceful cultivation, Chen Hai’s grim face would occasionally surface in his mind.
In these past decades, although he had always been hiding in the mine, he had done quite a few things to wash away the sha he bore.
For example, he split off several avatars to lurk in areas where Chen Hai might appear.
Wu Dang, in Lishan City, was one of those avatars Wu ng had split off.
In terms of power, this avatar was only at the early Earth Immortal stage, far from being able to compare with his original form.
However, when just gathering information within the West Barbarian Mountain territory, Wu Dang’s strength was more than sufficient.
Upon hearing the rumor of Chen Hai’s return, to verify the news, Wu Dang even risked exposure by going near the Black Water Immortal City on the Immortal Mountain.
In this Immortal City, disciples of the Black Water Lineage often appeared.
It took only a few days for Wu Dang to confirm the truth of Chen Hai’s return.
Unfortunately, his ways of doing things were too sloppy. Given the Black Water Lineage’s absolute control over Black Water Immortal City, while accurately obtaining the news of Chen Hai’s return, he also aroused suspicion among so in the city.
Having just experienced the attack on their mountain gate by the Overseas Sect Alliance, the Black Water Lineage took espionage very seriously, handling it in a manner where they’d rather mistakenly kill than let anyone off.
Being rely an Earth Immortal at the early stage without Domain powers, Wu Dang hardly stirred any trouble within Black Water Immortal City.
Luckily, before this avatar of Wu Dang perished, through the connection with his original form, he successfully transmitted the news regarding Chen Hai to Wu ng.
For soone who had hidden inconspicuously for so many years, after receiving this information, Wu ng’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam. He could no longer remain calm and appeared visibly agitated.
"Should I just go directly to the Western Barbarian Mountain’s Golden Dawn Island territory? That definitely won’t work."
"Although that Chen Hai is at a lower level than , he possesses Supre Treasures like the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower and the Golden Jiao Scissors."
"If I were to truly clash with him, I definitely wouldn’t be a match. Going there would be like throwing at onto the chopping board."
Frowning deeply, Wu ng paced back and forth in the courtyard.
Several years before, his severely compromised strength had only just returned to form. While his powers have now recovered to his forr peak, compared to back then, there hasn’t been much improvent.
With his ager strength, even facing the Chen Hai from decades ago, he would probably have to avoid him from afar.
Thinking of going to the Western Barbarian Mountain territory to deal with the current Chen Hai? Wu ng knew without a doubt that it was unrealistic.
"My powers are insufficient, so I’ll have to use others to do the deed for ."
"The Golden Jiao Scissors! The Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower! Such treasures in his possession are a path to destruction."
"Don’t even ntion Daluo Golden Immortals, even Quasi-Saints could not resist the lure of such treasures."
"As long as this news spreads, plenty will make a move against that Chen!"
...
With a ruthless expression, Wu ng talked to himself.
He knew very well that once the news of Chen Hai possessing great treasures spread and reached the ears of Quasi-Saints and Daluos, there would be no chance for the Golden Jiao Scissors and the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower to fall into his hands.
Yet without doing so, he couldn’t find any ans to deal with Chen Hai.
"Or, perhaps I shouldn’t rush to widely spread this news yet."
"Given my current status, I barely qualify to approach a few Commanders in the camp."
"Even if Chen Hai has Supre Treasures, having a Daluo Golden Immortal step in to deal with him should be more than enough!"
"If by any chance, I’m lucky enough, and that Chen Hai and the Daluo Golden Immortal sent against him end up defeating each other, who knows, I might benefit and have those treasures once again return to my hands!"
"Yes, that’s the plan!"
After pondering left and right, thoughts swirling in his mind for quite a while, Wu ng suddenly had a eureka mont.
With a decision in his heart, he thought for a mont and then, with head held high, he stepped out of the courtyard and walked towards the large hall where Wan Zhongshan, the Commander of the Enemy-breaking Camp, resided.
...
Within the Western Barbarian Mountain territory, in a cultivation room atop the Black Water Immortal Mountain’s peak.
"Within the Immortal City, when Qingmu’s Avatar, in the guise of a beggar, sought alms, so took pity on him, while others hurled insults. This is karma."
"Afterwards, so of these people received rewards, while others were punished, and this is the consequence."
"The only question is, whether Qingmu’s actions were ant to sever karma or if it was a dium to understand the power of karma."
"For matters of karma, I know absolutely nothing. The path Qingmu chooses to walk only suits him and not necessarily !"
"If he simply wants to sever karma, and as a Quasi-Saint, he pays such close attention to these entanglents, what about ?"
...
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, countless thoughts flashed through Chen Hai’s mind.
During the Blue Star era, his forr family and friends, as the years went by after rging into the Primordial World, were probably no longer in existence.
His wife, Ye Qingqing, had always been by his side. Though he had already helped her successfully embark on the Path to Immortality, she desired a child to accompany her, and he had already fulfilled that wish.
Severing karma doesn’t necessarily an killing one’s wife to prove the Tao. As for his wife, Ye Qingqing, Chen Hai felt he had nothing to be ashad of!
Besides this, is there any karma he cannot sever?
Imdiately, Chen Hai thought of the Black Water Leech Emperor.
As soon as he rembered that all he had now seed to have been brought about by the Leech Emperor, an imnse karmic debt that seed impossible to completely sever, Chen Hai couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
