In a desolate wasteland, where piles of bones could be seen, withered trees turning gray and frail, the void suddenly trembled violently. This was a no-man place, even ferocious beasts would not dare to linger here. Why would the surroundings shake all of a sudden?

In the middle of this hopeless wasteland, a crack in the void appeared. This crack had intense lightning fluctuations that would make anyone shiver.

Soon, two figures appeared from the void. They were wearing shining black robes that would stand out wherever they went.

A middle-aged man and a youth duo had appeared. The middle-aged man had long red single-ponytailed hair, which gave off an eerie feeling. He possessed a well-built body that could be seen even he was wearing a long robe. The other one was a youth, probably in his twenties, standing side by side with the middle-aged man. He also had long red hair, however, not ponytailed. He was so handsome that even the withered trees around blushed.

These two had a countenance of a true expert, with an immortal essence qi lingering around them.

"What the hell... this kind of trash world?!" The youth contemptuously said, "The essence qi is so scarce that you could not feel it at all!"

"Youngmaster Jyu, that's, of course, to be expected." Lai Ming, the middle-aged man, smiled faintly, "This is still a mortal world. It would be strange if this place has a dense essence qi."

"Hmph. So this was the world that damn traitor created in exchange for her cultivation? What a waste. Truly, a stupid member of our clan." Jyu Ming said in disdain, "If not for this is a very important mission given by our clan, I would not step in this trash world at all."

"Haha, Youngmaster Jyu, you don't need to be so upset." Lai Ming laughed, "After all if we succeed, your place in the clan will rise by leaps and bounds. Perhaps, you can be the next successor of the Ancient Ming Clan."

"That's too good to be true." Obviously, Jyu Ming knew his place in the clan and shook his head, "The talent of the son of the clan master is frightening, you know that. He is yet to be 30-years-old, yet he already reached the Immortal Realm. The disparity between us is unimaginable."

"Well, that may be the case." Lai Ming agreed and sighed, "But you are also not bad, Youngmaster Jyu. You already reached the Overlord Realm, fourth stage, at such a very young age. That's something you also need to be proud of."

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's just focus on the mission given to us." Jyu Ming said and asked, "That Farna, do you think that item is still in her possession? What's more, is she still alive after all these years? It's already a long time."

"The Third Ming Ancestor would not dare to burn his vitality to open the dimensional gate connecting to this world if there is no certainty and I believe you are aware of that. So of course, the thing is precisely still in Farna's possession. That thing, we need it, to for prolong the life of the First Ming Ancestor." Lai Ming explained seriously.

Jyu Ming pondered for a moment before saying, "That thing is that magical that it can extend our First Ming Ancestor's life, given the fact that it is used for creating a world... I wonder how could that old hag had it in the past."

"This... I don't know since even I was not yet born to this world, Farna is already an unrivaled expert that dared to be against our Ancient Ming Clan." Lai Ming frowned, "In fact, according to Third Ming Ancestor, Farna could rival our First Ming Ancestor."

Jyu Ming was stumped as he asked, "If that's the case, aren't we just seeking death ourselves?!"

"Haha, of course not. As you already know, the thing she used to create this world sucked most of her cultivation. You can say that she almost became crippled when she created this world. According to Third Ming Ancestor's calculations, in the past, her cultivation was reduced down to Earth Realm. Even she started to cultivate here in her mortal world, there was a slim chance that she returned to her peak cultivation." Lai Ming confidently answered, patting Jyu Ming's shoulder, "So you don't have to worry about anything else. Farna is the strongest here."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's find her as soon as possible, kill her and retrieve that thing so that we could go back to Grivexia. This world disgusts me to the bone." Jyu Ming disdainfully said.

"No rush, no rush." Lai Ming chuckled, "Farna will meet us for sure. I know she already felt our presences. All we need is to wait for her. She will come here herself, trust me. Of course, if ever she do not come here, we will personally hunt her down. "

Jyu Ming did not say anything, only nodded.

Just like Lai Ming had said, their target had felt their presence.

In an unknown place in the world, where green herbs and trees painted the whole surroundings, an otherworldly beauty, who had green flawless hair, sat in a cross-legged position. This place was excluding a peaceful vibe where anyone would feel at ease.

This time, the otherworldly beauty had opened her dazzling eyes, with a serious expression, "So the Ancient Ming Clan has finally made their move."

She paused for a moment and said, "And their target is the World-Creating Compass... huh?"

"Master!" An old man with white hair had entered the garden at a fast pace, "I'm glad you are okay..."

This old man was Farna's first and only disciple, Old Gong. This old man was startled when he felt that when his master awoke, her essence qi was turbulent which made him worried that he rushed to the garden.

"Little Gong, I'm okay... it's just that the Ancient Ming Clan has successfully entered this world." Farna said with a smile.

"What?! How is that possible..." Old Gong was shocked.

One should know that entering other worlds forcefully is not an easy job and there was a high chance of dying. Unless one had entered a fate-encountered dimensional gate. However, this type of gate was only appearing once every hundred years. In fact, sometimes, the dimensional gates did not appear even a hundred years had already passed.

And it was not yet a hundred years after the last opening of the dimensional gate, so it meant that the Ancient Ming Clan had used a forceful method of opening the gate connecting here. Of course, if they knew how to enter this world, they might also have the capability to go back.

"It looks like the Ancient Ming Clan is already certain that I have the World-Creating Compass." Farna frowned, "And it seems like they are waiting for my arrival."
