Both Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu were rooted to the spot as they saw the Penglai Celestial Mountain and a chill slowly crept up their spines.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders actually possessed two Celestial Mountains at the same time before this. Besides Yingzhou, the Penglai Celestial Mountain ended up in their hands too.

Penglai had collided with Fangzhang all those years ago and incurred the raging tides of the Ying Sea to swallow them both. This scene surfaced in Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu?s minds, as that day and that clash made them lose the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain. They had only just gotten it back, but it seemed like Lin Feng didn?t lose control of the Penglai Celestial Mountain after all.

The Celestial Sect of Wonders actually controlled two out of the tree mystical mountains and they even kept it quiet this whole time. This made Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu to feel their breathing stop and a stifling feeling in their chests.

If they knew Lin Feng had both Yingzhou and Penglai from the start, they wouldn?t have entered Ying Sea in the first place. Hiding inside the Void Battleground would have been a better choice than risking entry into the Ying Sea to take back the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain by force.

Liang Pan had his own secrets this whole time. Before today, neither the Celestial Sect of Wonders or the Great Void Sect or anybody else in the world knew that he possessed a Holy Light of Creation. However, he felt his heart begin to freeze the moment the saw the Penglai Celestial Mountain.

?Your majesty, Fangzhang cannot fall into their hands!? Zhu Hongwu exclaimed hastily, and the disorientation was obvious in his voice. He seemed unsettled and exasperated, and the color on his face changed as well.

If the Celestial Sect of Wonders ended today with the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain in their hands, then they would have the power to control the entire Ying Sea.

The power they would have would be similar to the dragons inside the Black Sea. If they hid inside the Black Sea and didn?t come out, there were hardly any forces in the whole wide world that could threaten them and even if they made a move they wouldn?t have absolute confidence.

This was something that could create an empire. Unless there was a drastic change in circumstance, the Celestial Sect of Wonders and their lineage could be said to be completely consolidated, and they would endure through the long passage of time and they would watch and laugh as the world unfurled around them.

Controlling the Ying Sea was one of the Great Zhou Empire?s main targets in their national strategy when their empire was still alive. They would use the Ying Sea as their foundation and conquer the entire world, they would continue to develop, and they would rise higher and higher while they devised and planned for other targets.

However, the Ying Sea that they had so coveted was about to end up in the hands of the Celestial Sect of Wonders and this made Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu as sullen and despondent as ever.

From a certain perspective, they were the ones who helped the Celestial Sect of Wonders find the hidden Fangzhang Celestial Mountain before the next reappearance of the three mountains. They delivered the mountain directly before the Celestial Sect of Wonders, and Lin Feng would obviously accept this gracious gift that was sent right before his very eyes.

Whether they entered the Ying Sea and used the same clues to find the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain, which had been stirred up by the Heaven-Destroying Sword, or they had sent Shao Qingcheng and the others to kidnap the younger disciples from the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the result would have been the same.

Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu?s emotions plummeted even further as they continued to think.

One step led to even more mistakes and they went down a slippery slope. In comparison to the various hidden powers of the Great Zhou Empire, the Celestial Sect of Wonders also had their reservations and they only revealed them at the very last moment. This made Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu feel as if their various efforts were all just a joke.

Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu?s state of minds were typically stable and determined, yet this sudden change in situation instantly made them see stars.

Their failure would mean that the Ying Sea would end up in the Celestial Sect of Wonders? hands. The Celestial Sect of Wonders was already dominating the entire Divine Lands, and this further increase in their power was unimaginable.

Their current situation was hopeless. Even thinking about escaping this place and contemplating the future appeared equally hopeless for them.

Zhu Hongwu took a deep breath and punched out once more against the Yingzhou Celestial Mountain.

Zhu Yi channeled the Higan Golden Bridge and stretched across the void as he blocked Zhu Hongwu?s attack once again.

On top of the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain, the eyes on Liang Pan?s avatar flashed with complicated emotions and they ended up as one of resolute determination.

He placed his palms together, and the dark golden chains extending from the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain intertwined between heaven and earth and shook together. The powerful Heart of the Sky Fangzhang Celestial Light aggregated and condensed and enveloped the entire mountain.

Afterwards, Liang Pan directed the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain and took the initiate to collide with Lin Feng?s Penglai Celestial Mountain.

His original body was still channeling the Supreme Reign Divine Light but he was already using up the last of his power. Even though Zhu Hongwu returned in force, there were many hidden problems within his new body and he couldn?t battle for long.

There was also nothing much they could do about the pincer-like assault from Penglai and Yingzhou onto the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain.

They would have lost without question if they remained stuck here.

Their only chance was to trigger another giant tide inside the Ying Sea that would break everyone apart, and only then would they have an opportunity to escape with their lives.

Liang Pan learned his lesson when Lin Feng used the Penglai Celestial Mountain to slam against the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain during the Scramble For the Ying Sea all those years ago. He knew that a clash between two mountains would directly incur a great wave that would swallow all the celestial mountains once again.

They were destined to lose the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain yet again in light of their current situation. If they dragged it any longer, they would just be helping out the Celestial Sect of Wonders and they would still have no chance of escaping at all.

He may as well give him a taste of his own medicine ? to use the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain against Lin Feng?s Penglai Celestial Mountain!

Lin Feng?s removal of the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain was one of the things that both Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu found unbearable to remember.

They didn?t gain anything from the last Scramble for the Ying Sea. Instead, they gave away something that belonged to them and this was recognized in the Divine Lands as the Great Zhou Empire?s turning point in their years of flourishing, into a path of decline.

They had just regained the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain through intense effort and it hadn?t even been in their possession for long before they were forced to throw it away once more. This made Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu feel even more useless, as if they were good-for-nothing.

This made their escape into the Ying Sea after relinquishing Tianjing City a fruitless endeavor and everything just became like a joke.

Still, Liang Pan didn?t lack decisiveness, and this helped him to survive and even flourish through the years. Even though he had taken a huge beating and he was mired in a perilous situation, he still tried his best to find a chance to turn the situation around.

Even though they would lose their own mystical mountain in the end, the Celestial Sect of Wonders would lose one of theirs as well. This meant that their newfound power and influence within the Ying Sea would plummet and they would lose their chance to completely control the Ying Sea. Liang Pan and company could even use the great waves of the Ying Sea to find a way out.

Zhu Hongwu seemed to share Liang Pan?s thoughts and he channeled his strength to the highest possible level once again as he battled Zhu Yi valiantly in an attempt to create an opportunity for Liaing Pan. At the same time, he prepared himself for the impending great waves so that he could tear himself away as soon as he was able to.

When Liang Pan directed the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain to crash against the Penglai Celestial Mountain, Lin Feng?s Nine Qi Avatar grinned atop Penglai and his left hand made a gesture as he placed it before his chest. He made a spell imprint with his right hand as he pointed lightly into the sky.

Nine streams of energy shot up into the sky around the Penglai Celestial Mountain. They shimmered with bright colors in the sky as if they were nine sprawling rainbows that connected the stretched across the Ying Sea as streaks of flowing light rippled between heaven and earth.

The nine types of divine energies on top of the mountain spiraled around each other and eventually merged as one, into a nine-colored beam of divine light ? the Nine Energies True Sky Divine Light.

This magnificent radiance instantly severed all the dark golden chains that extended out from the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain into void space.

However, Liang Pan was all-in and the Heart of the Sky Fangzhang Celestial Light condensed and materialized continuously as it protected the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain and the area around it. It blocked off the Nine Energies True Sky Divine Light as it proceeded on its trajectory towards the Penglai Celestial Mountain.

The Dark Sea around the Penglai Celestial Mountain suddenly burst out and surrounded the Penglai Celestial Mountain. A divine light with nine different hues flickered within as it merged with the Dark Sea and caused this unique sea to flicker with strange brilliance before everything became an enormous whirlpool.

The Penglai Celestial Mountain vanished on the spot. All that could be seen was the giant whirlpool that spun around as it flashed with lustrous colors ? and it sucked onto the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain that was crashing towards it.

The Fangzhang Celestial Mountain pressed forward forcefully and intended to crush the whirlpool completely. However, Liang Pan?s avatar on top of the mountain suddenly felt the lights above him dim and the Yingzhou Celestial Mountain appeared above the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain.

Lin Feng?s Avatar of Ares sat on top of the Yingzhou Celestial Mountain in the sky. At this point, he stood up with a faint smile on his face.

When he first showed the Penglai Celestial Mountain at this moment, he had already predicted that Liang Pan would make this risky decision to hurt them both. If he could use the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain to break one of his own, he would lose a Celestial Mountain for nothing even though Liang Pan?s efforts previously would have been for naught. There was no doubt that his loss would be comparatively greater, and this would even give Laing Pan and Zhu Hongwu a chance to escape.

He had already prepared for this eventuality.

?I think you guys know too little. It?s not simply just controlling two Celestial Mountains at the same time,? Lin Feng chuckled and said, ?You have no idea what controlling two Celestial Mountains at the same time can do.?

In the end, there had never been someone who managed to control two Celestial Mountains at the same time before Lin Feng.

The Penglai Celestial Mountain and the Yingzhou Celestial Mountain retaliated with one at the top and one at the bottom and locked the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain securely in the middle. Rays of flowing light surged around in the skies and the entire Ying Sea trembled along.

The white clouds in the heavens grew denser and the ocean surface that had been riled up this whole time, and along with the tidal waves, suddenly calmed down and the entire Ying Sea returned to tranquility.

The dark golden chains that connected the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain to the Ying Sea suddenly started breaking apart.

The Heart of the Sky Fangzhang Celestial Light that surrounded the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain grew dull unwittingly and seemed to enter a dormant state of silence. There was no response no matter what Liang Pan did to activate it.

Liang Pan could feel that his connection with the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain was still there, but the entire mountain itself seemed to freeze ? both space and time appeared to have stopped.

?Lin, Feng!? Liang Pan and Zhu Hongwu roared in unison and they could already feel the blood dripping in their hearts.

They resolved to risk their own lives and to do their utmost, but they weren?t even able to do that in the end. Their determination and their resolve appeared nothing more than jokes to their opponents, and this was undoubtedly extremely humiliating for them.

However, they didn?t dare to pause for too long and forced their negative emotions back down. They made a decision on the fly and attempted to use this opportunity when both the Yingzhou Celestial Mountain and the Penglai Celestial Mountain were holding down the Fangzhang Celestial Mountain to break through the seals upon the space around them and escape right away.

They could count themselves incredibly fortunate if they were able to escape with just their lives at this point.

Alas, Lin Feng was prepared for this as well. The Nine Qi Avatar on top of the Penglai Celestial mountain said slowly, ?Destiny.?

A little kid suddenly appeared beside him. He had bright eyes and white teeth and was decently good-looking. The little kid giggled and said, ?Don?t worry sir, they can?t escape.?

With that, the little kid vanished, and an elongated river of time appeared in the sky. It stretched across the heavens and fused with the Nameless Ancient Formation that sealed off the space around them. The Nameless Ancient Formation gave off a concept of power that felt as if it could dictate the passage of time between heaven and earth.

The seal placed on the space around them became stronger. Zhu Yi was close in pursuit of Zhu Hongwu and Liang Pan, and they trapped their opponents in this patch of void space.
