"You... You’ve already taken that Universe Ring Pill?" Yun Cangzi’s voice trembled, filled with envy, jealousy, and fear.
At their level, every tiny breakthrough is extrely difficult. Achieving such a significant breakthrough in such a short period is undeniably related to that Universe Ring Pill!
The Universe Ring Pill can help them feel the power beyond the Divine Cultivation Realm and find opportunities for a breakthrough. Clearly, this ti, Dark Hand has gained greatly.
"Indeed," Dark Hand said smugly, "I’ve already taken that Universe Ring Pill. My luck wasn’t bad, and I gained a fair amount of understanding of the power of that realm!"
"Excellent!" Yun Cangzi was also very excited. With Dark Hand’s major breakthrough, the two of them now have the absolute qualification to compete with all other factions. The interests originally split among three will now all fall into their hands!
With this fortune, even if Xichen recovers from his injuries later, it’ll be challenging to catch up to them again. It’s uncertain if Xichen can even survive until then. From now on, the whole Skyless Realm truly belongs to the two of them.
"We’ll split the shares equally between us!"
"Equally? I have no such intention! Do you think you have the qualifications to split equally with ?" Dark Hand’s voice carried a chill, "60/40 split, you 40 and I 60, that’s my biggest concession!"
"You..." Yun Cangzi was clearly dissatisfied. Previously, when dividing profits, Xichen relied on his strongest strength to demand an extra share. Now even Dark Hand is learning from him."
"You know very well that right now, you don’t have the qualification to bargain with !"
Yun Cangzi clearly felt a powerful sense of oppression.
Their three forces could coexist only because their strengths were almost equal. Any attempt to eliminate another would co with a huge cost, even if successful.
But now Dark Hand has taken a step ahead, breaking their balance. If Dark Hand wanted to kill Yun Cangzi, it wouldn’t be very difficult, unless Yun Cangzi hid in the formation like a turtle for life.
Actually, Dark Hand’s allocation was already quite fair; he even increased Yun Cangzi’s share by 10% on his original basis.
"Alright, let’s do as you said!" After so thought, Yun Cangzi could only choose to compromise.
"Good, it’s settled then. You’ll be the one to announce the news, and if anyone causes trouble, I’ll take care of it!"
After Dark Hand left, Yun Cangzi finally breathed a sigh of relief. The psychological pressure from Dark Hand had been imnse.
Right now, Dark Hand needs Yun Cangzi’s strength, which is why he shares so profit. But once Dark Hand achieves a new breakthrough, he might imdiately turn hostile. The Skyless Realm might soon change dramatically!

"Mr. Gu, here are the remaining Divine Crystals for you," at the bank, it’s still Da Yi from yesterday, handing over the Divine Crystals Zhang nglong requested.
"Hm, the quantity is correct, thank you!" Zhang nglong now holds as many as five trillion Divine Crystals, giving him ample security whether in the Skyless Realm or the Hong Yun Empire, with no further worries.
"Boss, tonight there’s a launch ceremony at the Black Rock Auction, regarding the number of slots for this auction and the basic rules. Will you be attending?" The three talked as they walked.
"Of course, I’ll attend," Zhang nglong smiled, "If nothing unexpected happens, an unexpected event will occur tonight."
"Unexpected..." Black Mist was puzzled, the statent was too convoluted.
"Simply put, tonight’s preview eting will turn into a battle for transfer slots. Such a big piece of cake, now that Xichen can no longer compete, soone will definitely want to replace him. The only question is whose hand the cake originally belonging to him will fall into."
"Didn’t he just hand the key over to you?"
"Obtaining the key is one thing, being able to keep it is another," Zhang nglong touched his Tianjiao Token, "My pretentiousness recorder should also record so events."
A day quickly passed. That night appeared calm but many things happened behind the scenes.
Xichen’s residence faced an unprecedented terrifying attack; according to witnesses, at least 10 Ninth Grade Divine Cultivators and several hundred Eighth Grade Divine Cultivators wreaked havoc at his residence.
A batch of Xichen’s people was killed, while so were scattered and joined other organizations or directly left the Skyless Realm.
As for Xichen himself, no one has seen his whereabouts. So say he died, but this possibility was directly ruled out. His two most loyal subordinates disappeared with him, along with a large portion of Xichen’s physical assets.
It’s suspected that after being injured, he anticipated this outco and sought a way to flee the Skyless Realm with his people; otherwise, he would certainly have t his end.
The shares under his na related to the No Sky Bank were transferred to another person who, after becoming the largest shareholder, directly hid all his information using his authority, leaving everyone unsure of his identity.
But at this mont, they discovered that they hadn’t found the key to the formation at Xichen’s residence, nor could they extract any information about the Formation Key from his subordinates.
Without the Formation Key, the formation couldn’t be activated. Trying to rebuild it in the remaining ti wouldn’t work, aning the path to Hong Yun Empire from the Skyless Realm would be completely blocked.
This is a very serious matter, even causing Yun Cangzi and Dark Hand headaches. Looking for Xichen is like searching for a needle in a haystack.
But just the next morning, news spread that soone had captured the bank staff and forcibly extracted related information from their brains. Xichen had indeed handed over the formation activation key!
However, in those people’s mories, only fragnts were found. About the person who injured Xichen, there were only very vague fragnts, with many critical mories missing.
Clearly, soone tampered with their mories, leaving only the information they wanted others to see!
This gave all factions a sense of relief; since the opponent left this clue intentionally, it indicates the person also wants a piece of that cake. At the auction preview scene, he will surely appear!
Then, an anonymous ssage was released, surprisingly revealing the location where the Formation Key was stored!
It’s a small storage room in the Skyless Realm, a place its owner never thought would attract a bunch of top figures from various factions.
Sure enough, the key is right here, along with a small note.
"Please keep this key for now, I’ll take it back later."
This is a blatant challenge to all factions; this person obtained the key and threw it out, clearly flaunting their capability!
"He’s provoking all of us!"
"He’s too arrogant. Does he really think he can get the key back after throwing it out?"
"Haha, perhaps he surrendered the key because he couldn’t hold onto it; the note is just to save face."_
"I’m curious to see if he dares to appear!"
Learning this news, the factions stopped wasting ti investigating this person and started preparing intently, knowing it won’t be a peaceful night.
