You Found It, So You Learned It?

At that thought.

The corner of his mouth lifted slightly, and he was about to close his eyes again.

Suddenly.

A faint sense that something was wrong pricked at him like a needle.

The Golden Thread Patriarch frowned.

He slowly raised his hand and sent his divine sense outward.

Beyond the Cave Abode, the white mist lingered, the water lay still, and everything seemed as it should.

"Was it my imagination...?"

The Golden Thread Patriarch murmured to himself, then shook his head.

Perhaps he was being too cautious.

With his reputation and strength, who in the Eight Hundred Miles of Linked Clouds would dare cause trouble at Blackwater Pool?

Besides, Chu Duanliu was outside. If anything happened, he would report it at once.

Even someone else at the Roaming Void Sea Perfection Realm could never launch a silent ambush on him.

At that thought, he shook his head with a wry smile.

He really was being too cautious...

But in that very instant.

Boom—

The stone door of the Cave Abode exploded!

Shattered rock flew, and the white mist scattered.

The Golden Thread Patriarch's eyes snapped open, his expression changing sharply.

"You..."

Before he could finish.

A vicious whipping kick, carrying a boundless surge of black-and-white yin-yang energy, was already slashing down at his head!

Faced with such a blow, the Golden Thread Patriarch did not panic.

His Myriad Phenomena Heaven Realm might not yet be stable, but he had reached that level all the same.

How could a cultivator from a lower realm hurt him with a sneak attack?

In the next instant.

The white mist inside the Cave Abode froze.

The bluestone walls and luminous pearls lost their color in a heartbeat.

Heaven and earth transformed.

Amid a desolate expanse of heaven and earth.
