Who Am I

In the Central Region, Green Flame Valley.

It took Lin Tian half a month to finally reach Green Flame Valley from that forest. To his surprise, Zhou Qiongtian hadn't pursued him.

However, what he didn't know was that Zhou Qiongtian had already been waiting in Green Flame Valley for a long time.

After exchanging for the Heaven's Inquiry Talisman, Zhou Qiongtian wanted to know Lin Tian's location, but Lin Tian's position was constantly changing.

Therefore, Zhou Qiongtian directly asked Lin Tian's destination, planning to lie in wait.

"Great Nirvana Finger!"

Zhou Qiongtian cut to the chase, knowing that villains die from talking too much. As soon as he saw Lin Tian, he immediately unleashed his technique.

A giant, pitch-black finger descended from the sky. Compared to this colossal finger, Lin Tian was like an ant.

Seeing this, Lin Tian's eyes widened in shock. How did Zhou Qiongtian know he was heading to Green Flame Valley? Even a strong practitioner of the Wisdom Path shouldn't be able to deduce that!

Could Zhou Qiongtian have the ability to see the future?

The Great Nirvana Finger was rapidly approaching, and Lin Tian dared not get distracted by other thoughts. He immediately activated the second form of the Demon God Core, his entire body turning crimson, with heat constantly rising from him.

Lin Tian didn't choose to confront it head-on but instead entered Green Flame Valley at the fastest possible speed.

However, Zhou Qiongtian wouldn't let Lin Tian have his way. He unleashed Lightning Step, catching up to Lin Tian. Zhou Qiongtian's speed was even a notch higher than Lin Tian's.

Lin Tian gritted his teeth and threw something from his storage ring. It was a dark, shadowy creature, its features indistinguishable. However, it stood on four legs, appearing to be a demonic beast.

This was a demonic beast in the early Feather Ascension stage, powerful in strength, but now it could only serve as cannon fodder.

This was the power of the Life Creation Art, which could use creation black threads to control corpses, though such corpses were not as strong as when they were alive.

Zhou Qiongtian sneered and, without any hesitation, charged towards the demonic beast's corpse. With a single punch, the demonic beast's body exploded.

Witnessing this scene, Lin Tian was utterly terrified. Although this demonic beast was already dead, its physical body was still incredibly strong.

Yet, Zhou Qiongtian had obliterated it with a single punch. His physical strength was too terrifying; he was practically a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex!

If that punch had landed on him, Zhou Qiongtian was certain he would have met the same fate as the demonic beast's corpse.

Zhou Qiongtian's feet struck like thunder, sparks flying and lightning flashing. He quickly closed the distance to within five meters of Lin Tian. However, Lin Tian was far too familiar with the terrain of Green Flame Valley, escaping Zhou Qiongtian's grasp several times like a slippery loach.

Despite this, relying on the terrain, Lin Tian still sustained many injuries. Blood continuously flowed from his wounds, gradually turning Lin Tian into a bloody mess.

Not only that, but Lin Tian's physical body was on the verge of collapse. The power of the Demon God Core was too immense, and with Lin Tian's current cultivation, he couldn't withstand the second form for an extended period.

Crisis!

Lin Tian felt a bitter ache in his heart. From beginning to end, he couldn't understand what he had done to provoke Zhou Qiongtian. In this life, he shouldn't have had any connection with him!

"Almost there, almost there. Once I reach that place, I'll be safe!" Lin Tian gritted his teeth, ignoring his injuries. He unleashed some secret technique, and his speed increased again, widening the gap between him and Zhou Qiongtian.

Zhou Qiongtian's eyes showed surprise. This brat still had some fight left in him?

"Faster, faster!" Lin Tian's eyes turned blood red, a ferocious expression on his face.

However, even with Lin Tian's increased speed, he still couldn't match Zhou Qiongtian.

Zhou Qiongtian's eyes transformed into Twin Pupils, and the next moment, a beam of light carrying the aura of annihilation shot out from his eyes.

"Annihilation Light!"

Instantly, the Annihilation Light pierced through Lin Tian. Lin Tian, who was flying through the air, stiffened. A look of disbelief flashed in his eyes. His body, carried by inertia, tumbled forward and slammed heavily onto the ground.

"He's dead?" Zhou Qiongtian frowned, not believing Lin Tian was dead just like that. He hadn't heard the system's mission completion prompt either.

If an ordinary peak Grand Perfection expert were hit by the Annihilation Light, they would truly die. But Lin Tian was a Child of Destiny, favored by the Heavenly Dao. How could he die so easily?

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for pushing the Child of Destiny, Lin Tian, into a desperate situation. Destiny Points +!]

The next moment, an anomaly occurred. The entire Green Flame Valley began to shake violently, as if an 18-magnitude earthquake had struck. Zhou Qiongtian flew into the air, and from his aerial vantage point, he saw that the terrain of Green Flame Valley seemed to have formed a colossal formation!

Zhou Qiongtian exclaimed in awe. What kind of person would use such a valley as a formation?

No! This Green Flame Valley was merely an eye of this grand formation. This heaven-shattering formation was composed of countless arrays, with Green Flame Valley as their core!

Suddenly, the entire formation lit up, and a surge of Law Power emanated from it!

Zhou Qiongtian's heart leaped in alarm. This was the work of a Supreme Being!

Zhou Qiongtian became vigilant. He used his Twin Pupils to carefully examine the grand formation. The Twin Pupils possessed the power to see through illusion and reveal true essence, but this time, Zhou Qiongtian felt an intense pain in his eyes, and two streams of blood flowed down.

Zhou Qiongtian immediately stopped activating his Twin Pupils and used the Fortune Sensing Divine Ability on Lin Tian's "corpse."

In Zhou Qiongtian's eyes, Lin Tian's Destiny had fallen to less than one-fifth of its peak. However, this remaining Destiny was incredibly tenacious, like an inextinguishable flame that would reignite even after being extinguished.

However, Zhou Qiongtian noticed a trace of black within Lin Tian's Destiny – a mark of misfortune!

It seemed like a good opportunity!

Zhou Qiongtian's heart settled. Regardless of how powerful this formation was, he had the protection left by his father. Even if this formation was set up by a Supreme Being, he was confident he could escape.

Zhou Qiongtian immediately unleashed Lightning Step and charged towards Lin Tian. No matter what, he had to destroy Lin Tian's physical body and soul first!

Suddenly, the scene before Zhou Qiongtian's eyes changed drastically. There was no sign of Lin Tian anywhere. Zhou Qiongtian frowned and looked around, finding himself lying under a large tree. A gentle breeze blew across his face, feeling very comfortable.

"Junior Brother Chu, you've come here again. You always come here when you have something on your mind. Is it because the Sect Master made you study the Formation Dao and give up the Sword Dao?"

"Alas! Junior Brother, you are a once-in-a-millennium genius in the Formation Dao. The Sect Master did this for your own good. I know you like the Sword Dao, but the sect's Formation Dao needs someone to inherit it!"

Zhou Qiongtian turned his head and saw a pair of fair, straight, and slender legs: "So white."

"Junior Brother Chu, what did you say?"

Zhou Qiongtian looked up. Approaching him was a woman with hair like a waterfall, eyes as gentle as the sea, curved willow eyebrows, and a smile on her lips.

This woman was named Ye Xueqi. She was his childhood sweetheart and had entered the Divine Path Sect at the same time as him. However, her cultivation talent and level were higher than his, so he had to call Ye Xueqi "Senior Sister."

A flood of memories surged forth, engulfing Zhou Qiongtian. He felt disoriented. Was he Zhou Qiongtian of the Zhou Family, or Chu Tiange of the Divine Path Sect?
