The robustness of the Defensive Barrier was evident to all, and nobody believed that it could be breached in a short time, not even by a Nascent Soul Master. To break this Defensive Barrier, even they would need to make at least two or three attempts, it certainly wouldn’t be an instant success.

With this consensus, the Gold Core Realm expert who had been ordered by Commander Yang to escort Wang Dongming towards the Defensive Barrier didn’t take it too seriously. He was confident enough that, no matter what trick Wang Dongming played, he could quickly control the situation and prevent any mischief.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, and accompanied by a Gold Core Realm expert, Wang Dongming reached a point less than ten feet from the Defensive Barrier. It was then that a Gold Core Realm expert hiding within the Defensive Barrier suddenly raised a hand-held crossbow-like artifact, taking aim at the Gold Core Realm expert escorting Wang Dongming. The latter instinctively sensed the threat from the handheld crossbow, pausing subconsciously. His proximity to Wang Dongming was so close that he could reach out and touch him, but because of the pause, the distance between them suddenly increased by an arm’s length. At that moment, Wang Dongming accelerated and, like a swallow returning to its nest, recklessly crashed towards the Defensive Barrier.

The escorting Gold Core Realm expert instinctively reached out to grab Wang Dongming, but then he thought of the sturdiness of the Defensive Barrier and shouted, “Are you blind? Be careful or you might kill yourself, you wretched brat.”

Almost everyone assumed that Wang Dongming had made a foolish choice, or perhaps he felt it was a hopeless situation and chose to tragically collide with the Defensive Barrier to his death. However, at that moment, Wang Dongming crashed into the Defensive Barrier, which to the likes of Commander Yang and Wang Fengna seemed as solid as a rock, yet it was like a bubble to Wang Dongming. He pierced through it effortlessly, passing the Defensive Barrier and entering its confines.

The complexion of the escorting Gold Core Realm expert changed dramatically, and he cursed, “Damnation.” He wasted no time and accelerated to his fullest; extending his arm, he attempted to catch up with Wang Dongming and bring him back.

Immediately, everyone watched as the Gold Core Realm expert’s arm touched the Defensive Barrier. It was like a thin twig hitting an iron plate at a high velocity at a right angle, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking bone that echoed through the Great Rift Valley, followed by an agonized scream from the expert. He tried to stop, but it was too late, and his body, following his broken arm, harshly collided with the Defensive Barrier.

Blood sprayed instantly, and the Gold Core Realm expert spat out a mouthful of blood, seeming glued to the Defensive Barrier before sliding down it.

Commander Yang reacted swiftly, he and another Gold Core Realm expert hurried over and caught their severely injured companion, preventing him from sliding down the Defensive Barrier and potentially falling off the high platform, which could result in even graver consequences, including death.

After catching his comrade, Commander Yang looked through the Defensive Barrier, where he saw Wang Dongming looking back at them with disdain. He furiously shouted, “Wang Dongming, do you realize the grave consequences of your actions? I swear, once we break through the Defensive Barrier, I will pulverize you into dust.”

Wang Dongming laughed heartily, “Big talk, who can’t do that? Break through the Defensive Barrier first, then we’ll talk.”

After mocking Commander Yang, Wang Dongming also glared resentfully at Qi Tian standing atop the cliff of the Great Rift Valley, “I intended to use that damn woman to kill you, but she didn’t take the bait. Qi Tian, consider yourself lucky, but don’t get too pleased. Sooner or later, you will die by my hand.”

At that moment, the Gold Core Realm expert who had facilitated Wang Dongming’s arrival said, “Young Sect Leader, the Teleportation Gate to the Imperial Family Secret Territory is ready; you can meet with the Sect Leader at any time now.”

Wang Dongming responded, “Master Zhou, you are one of my grandfather’s most accomplished disciples. Now at the critical moment of life and death for our Refining God Sect, whether we can keep the sect’s greatest secret from being stolen by these outsiders rests on you.”

Wang Dongming’s grandfather, the Sect Leader of the Refining God Sect, had only taken three disciples in total, counting Wang Dongming’s father, that’s four disciples in a lifetime. All four were quite exceptional; apart from Wang Dongming’s father, they had all succeeded in advancing to the Gold Core Realm. His father too had great potential to ascend to the Gold Core Realm but was injured during a mission, and subsequently, when he attempted to break through to the Gold Core Realm, not only did he fail, he was also backfired upon by the Spirit Qi and perished.

This Master Zhou, the youngest disciple taken by his grandfather, was Zhou Guanyu, a man of outstanding talent. He was the last to pledge allegiance to Wang Wenshui yet advanced the quickest and earned his grandfather’s trust. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been assigned to guard the Teleportation Gate to the Imperial Family Secret Territory.

Zhou Guanyu responded, “Young Sect Leader, when you see the Sect Leader, please tell him that as long as I draw breath, the Teleportation Gate will remain impregnable.”
