Supreme Warrior in the City

”I’m not very familiar with the situation in Storm Valley.” Jiang Zi’er shook her head and said, ”However, Storm Valley and the World Melting Furnace should have a significant connection.”

”Why do you say that?” Su Yang asked in surprise.

”Because the World Melting Furnace came from Storm Valley.” Jiang Zi’er paused and said, ”Or rather, it was the World Melting Furnace that created Storm Valley in the first place!”

”What?” Su Yang couldn’t help but be astonished; this news was truly shocking.

”I don’t know much about the specifics of this.” Jiang Zi’er said, ”However, it’s said that Storm Valley, Feather Spirit Palace, and Demon Abyss are the three major death zones, and they were the primary reasons for the collapse of the Nine Realms back then. Feather Spirit Palace, with its palace, is well-documented. In Storm Valley, someone once tried to investigate, and at the edge of the valley, they found a dead person who held the World Melting Furnace. The corpse of this person is still in the Heavenly Realm, suppressed by numerous powerful beings. The World Melting Furnace was stolen and later got lost during chaotic battles, eventually ending up in the Human World. Very few in the Human World know about this, and thus, no one knows the origin or purpose of the World Melting Furnace, leaving it in the hands of someone unknown. As for the Demon Abyss, no one knows what truly lies within.”

Su Yang was deeply shocked; he knew very little about the three death zones. In fact, throughout the Human World, few understood these circumstances.

Jiang Zi’er must have obtained this information from the Divine Master. Presumably, these tidbits came from the Heavenly Realm. It seemed that the Divine Master knew quite a bit about the happenings over there.

What truly surprised Su Yang was actually the array that the Divine Master knew about.

According to Jiang Zi’er’s account, the World Melting Furnace was acquired from a dead person. So, where was this array obtained from?

If the array was taken from the deceased, then why didn’t those who acquired the World Melting Furnace cultivate it or harness its power?

The power of the World Melting Furnace is so terrifying; if someone could channel its power, they would have united the Nine Realms long ago. How could the current turmoil of endless battles occur?

Furthermore, those people obtained the World Melting Furnace from that corpse. Then, how did they learn of the furnace’s secrets? Not only about the array, but also about the furnace’s capabilities—how did they come to know of these?

Moreover, why was that corpse suppressed in the Heavenly Realm by countless top fighters?

These situations are significant doubts, and the biggest one was how the Divine Master came to know about these things?

Su Yang once again began to doubt the Divine Master’s identity. If this person came from the Human World to the Heavenly Realm and later perished in battle, there was no way they could know such top-secret information. Thus, the Divine Master’s true identity was quite a mystery indeed!

”Did the Divine Master ever mention where he got these pieces of information from?” Su Yang asked, ”Like that array?”

Jiang Zi’er shook her head, ”He only briefly mentioned that he learned these things from the Heavenly Realm. But he never said how exactly he acquired such knowledge. Some have questioned him, but he simply stated it came from the Heavenly Realm.”

Su Yang furrowed his brows; the source of the information was unclear, and it was obvious the Divine Master was hiding something. It seemed his speculation was right— the Divine Master’s identity truly remained an enigma!

”Su Alliance Leader, at present, breaking this array is the most crucial matter.” Jiang Zi’er said in a low voice, ”A while back, the Divine Master came to oversee the progress of the formation. According to him, the formation is already effective, and it won’t be long before it forms completely. Once it fully forms, and the World Melting Furnace’s power comes under the Divine Master’s control, no one will be able to restrain him.”

Su Yang nodded, knowing this as well. But the problem was, how to break the array?

”By the way, have you seen the fat man here?” Su Yang suddenly asked; the fat man hadn’t emerged from the World Melting Furnace, and Su Yang was worried about him.

”I haven’t seen him.” Jiang Zi’er shook her head.

”Have the Divine Master and his people not captured the fat man?” Su Yang asked in curiosity.

”I don’t think so.” Jiang Zi’er replied, ”The Divine Master and his followers have been in the World Melting Furnace for quite some time, exploring many places. But no one has seen the fat man. I guess he might be aware of the situation and hid somewhere.”

Su Yang felt slightly relieved, still concerned that the Divine Master and his followers might have found the fat man or even killed him. Since they hadn’t discovered him yet, it was a good sign. As long as the fat man was alive, everything would be easier to handle.

”To break the array, we must either kill the Divine Master or kill these possessors!” Su Yang mused, ”Killing the Divine Master is not easy right now as he has many experts by his side. Also, time is of the essence. Once the array is completed, the Divine Master will become unbeatable. Therefore, the urgent task is to disrupt the formation temporarily by eliminating a few possessors, preventing the array from forming, and addressing the immediate crisis.”

Jiang Zi’er nodded, ”I think so too. Currently, it’s the only viable option. However, this approach is also very dangerous. These possessors, though not all together, are quite powerful individually. Moreover, they are not far apart from each other. If we cannot deliver a fatal blow and they send signals, the others will be alerted immediately, leading to trouble.”

Su Yang nodded; he was aware of this. If they knew he was there, hundreds of possessors, along with the guards the Divine Master left, would constitute such a formidable force that Su Yang would likely have no chance of escape.

”Do you know the locations of these possessors?” Su Yang asked.

”Yes,” Jiang Zi’er nodded, ”The map I drew earlier shows the positions of those possessors.”

”Then we have a plan.” Su Yang nodded, knowing the locations would greatly facilitate his actions.

”Give me the positions first, and I’ll scout them out tonight,” Su Yang said. ”You should hide for now, don’t show yourself; let me handle these affairs.”

”That’s not feasible!” Jiang Zi’er quickly shook her head, ”The Alchemy Palace opens its doors tomorrow. If I don’t show up, my alchemy room will be unoccupied. If they investigate, it will expose everything. So I must return first, ensuring they notice nothing amiss, preventing any suspicion.”
