Chapter 1327: The Crumbling of the Saint's Abode

“Hey…why in the world did you choose that look?”

Bai Yunfei asked, he was feeling a little speechless at how Xiao Qi’s appearance looked sixty to seventy percent just like him…

It almost felt like he was looking at a seventeen or eighteen-year-old version of himself. If they didn’t know better, then anyone would’ve assumed the two were brothers.

“Hehe, I’m finally human!” Xiao Qi hopped around excitedly, “Haha!! I’ll be just like you! And why I’m like this? Because I think you’re super handsome, Yunfei! So I took a leaf out of your book, how’s it look? Handsome right?”

“……”

His lip twitched, “Yeah, amazing.”

Would he be insulting himself if he said no?

Xiao Qi was a Saint now but his personality and appearance was still that of a child. Of course, Bai Yunfei couldn’t fault Xiao Qi for such a reasoning like that then. In reality, Bai Yunfei already considered him something like a precious younger brother anyways, his new appearance was simply just adding onto that bond.

It was still a little awkward, but time should help with that feeling more or less.

Another two seconds went by before Bai Yunfei was finally able to get over the awkwardness of looking at a similar face to his own before he brought out a space ring containing some clothes. “I don’t care if you look like me, Xiao Qi, but I don’t like seeing myself naked…hurry up and put on some clothes.”

Xiao Qi’s humanization was great and all, but the fact that he was completely without any clothes made the sight very awkward…

The clothes Xiao Qi wore were a little big on him, but he didn’t pay it too much mind. And now that the two were clothed and standing next to each other, the similarities were looking more and more noticeable…

……

By now, the white light that used to super prominent in the area was now almost gone. Curious, Bai Yunfei turned an eye to his right.

Two auras, both of them Mid-stage Soul Emperors, came to a stop right beside him. It was Li Chengfeng and Jing Mingfeng. The two were done with their meditation and successfully went from being Early-stage Soul Emperors to Mid-stage Soul Emperors.

A smile appeared on Bai Yunfei’s lips. He was truly happy to see his friends become stronger.

“Thank you, Yunfei!!” Li Chengfeng smiled gratefully.

Not even Jing Mingfeng was able to prevent a smile to play out on his lips. “I’ll spare you my gratitude, Ol’Bai, but thank you!” He roared with laughter before slapping him on the shoulder.

“No need for any of that, we’re brothers after all!”

“Bzzz…”

A loud rumbling sound detonated somewhere in the dimension, causing everyone to snap their heads upward.

Now that there wasn’t any white light to obscure the dimension, Bai Yunfei could finally see that the murky environment of the dimension was beginning to look unstable.

“It’s not calming down?” Jing Mingfeng muttered, “I thought it was because Ol’Bai was becoming a Saint that it was like this…what’s the cause then? Do you know, Ol’Bai?”

But Bai Yunfei shook his head. “I’m not sure. It looks like the dimension is starting to break down, maybe it’s because the Supreme Saint’s Inheritance is no longer here? I don’t think it should be that dangerous, we won’t have to worry about how to get out of here in any case if it breaks down.”

“Bzzz…”

Another rumble went through the dimension while Bai Yunfei was speaking. Narrowing his eyes, he took out the Cataclysmic Seal and had it erect a barrier big enough to protect everyone in it.

The Cataclysmic Seal, was of course much stronger now that Bai Yunfei was a Saint. The barrier it could provide was now a lot bigger and stronger.

“Be careful.”

Bai Yunfei warned the others as cracks began to appear all over the place.

“Boom…rumble…”

The next tremor that ran through the dimension was strong enough to distort everyone’s vision for just a moment. Multiple parts of the dimension were now sporting huge cracks that continued to expand everywhere. The group was still safe due to the barrier even as large explosions slammed into it.

For seconds, the barrage of explosions continued and made it near impossible for everyone to see what was going on on the outside. And by the time it cleared…

Bai Yunfei thought that they would’ve been transported back to the Saint’s abode. Instead of that environment, Bai Yunfei could see the vast sky above him and the mountainous terrain below him. There was even a valley that was shaped just like a giant dragon…

Not only did that dimension break, but the outer dimension with the Saint’s abode collapsed as well! They were back in the real world!

Perhaps it was one of the settings that the previous Supreme Saint implemented. Once the Supreme Saint’s Inheritance was gained, the entire dimension would break. Or perhaps the Supreme Saint’s Inheritance was what powered the entire dimension. Once that was gone, the dimension would no longer be able to support itself.

“Boom!!!”

A loud explosion suddenly detonated somewhere in the world before Bai Yunfei and the others could adjust to their new situation.

“Ancestor Shen!!”

Bai Yunfei’s eyes widened at once. That flare-up of energy definitely belonged to Shen Pojun! Whirling to his left, Bai Yunfei managed to see a giant ocean of fire suddenly explode into view.

The distance was a little far, but Bai Yunfei could sense four distinctive auras in close proximity to one another—four Saints!

“No wonder they never met up with us, they came across some enemies before!”

“Yunfei…” Li Chengfeng muttered, concerned.

“Yes, that’s ancestor Shen and Frostfeather fighting! They’re fighting Shangguan Xiongyan and a class nine soulbeast! Let’s go help them!!”

……

On the other side. Four Saints were currently making battle.

Shen Pojun, the Frostfeather Saint, Shangguan Xiongyan, and the Abyssal Snake Saint had been fighting for several hours by now. Both sides were equally strong and so a victory had yet to be determined.

It would take another three days and nights before a conclusion could be met. Without interference, that is. But an interference was already on the way.

The crumbling of the Saint’s abode came as a surprise to all four of the Saints. They had been in the middle of fighting when it came down, leaving them shocked to suddenly be dumped back in the real world.

All four of them retreated to safety when it happened. A shock at this time could prove fatal so a reprieve was necessary.

“What’s going on? Why has the Saint’s abode crumbled?! Could it be…”

All four Saints’ mind began to race with the possible reasons for a bit before their attention was focused onto the eastern skies.

A powerful aura was rapidly approaching them! The aura of a Saint!!

The reactions were mixed. Shen Pojun and the Frostfeather Saint looked grim while Shangguan Xiongyan and the Abyssal Snake Saint both sneered. The only other Saint that could possibly be here would be Gu Jimie.

Then Shen Pojun’s eyes widened as his soulsense began to pick up on the aura signature. “Hm!? This aura belongs to…Yunfei!!”

“It’s not Gu Jimie!!” Simultaneously, Shangguan Xiongyan and the Abyssal Snake Saint both blanched.

“That’s Yunfei! He’s become a Saint!! The Supreme Saint’s Inheritance…he’s done it! Haha!! Well done!!” Shen Pojun began to laugh in relief.

“Bai Yunfei…It’s Bai Yunfei…?! He’s become a Saint! But…how could that be!? Where has Gu Jimie gone?!” Shangguan Xiongyan’s face had gone stark white. Every part of his face looked ready to scream out his frustration at this turn of events.

“Damn!! We have to leave!!”

Shangguan Xiongyan roared before moving at full speed away from the battlefield!!

The Abyssal Snake Saint didn’t even need to be warned. At almost the same time, the soulbeast disengaged from the field and disappeared into a black beam of light…
