"Stop!"

Versailles shouted loudly, "Protect him!"

"Boom!!!!!"

Fang Heng turned into a streak of shadow and slammed into the defensive barrier in front of Versailles.

The moment they clashed, Versailles’ expression changed drastically.

The power of the undead domain frantically devoured the defensive barrier.

Not only that, the punch was mixed with Origin Power!

"Help me!"

The surrounding elders in blue immediately gathered, their figures appearing beside Versailles as they pressed their hands onto his shoulders.

The cyan barrier shone brilliantly!

Only by combining forces with several blue-robed elders to release the barrier did Versailles manage to block the strike.

A few beads of cold sweat appeared on Versailles’ forehead, and he breathed slightly heavily.

Fang Heng!

This guy!

The last time in the Holy Realm, his strength had been nowhere near this terrifying.

Back then, he had not used his true power at all.

Versailles felt it clearly.

One-on-one, he was absolutely no match for Fang Heng.

Noticing that it was Versailles, Fang Heng stopped his attack. His body, which had been frantically consumed by the elemental vortex, rapidly recovered at a terrifying speed. The elemental power eroding his body slowly receded, and the wounds on his skin cut open by high-strength wind blades quickly healed.

Fang Heng coldly glanced at Gideon behind Versailles and said, "Versailles, are you going to help him?"

"Sorry. This person is very important to the dimensional world domain competition. Tiger Venerable has asked us to step in and mediate as much as possible. We hope that for Sir Tiger Venerable’s sake, you can spare his life for now."

"Oh? Tiger Venerable?"

A trace of mockery curled at Fang Heng’s lips. "Versailles, if I had been the one who lost this time, would you have intervened?"

Versailles replied decisively, "Yes! Both of you are outstanding talents of our dimensional world domain. You should not die here."

Fang Heng sensed that Versailles was not lying. He shrugged, and most of the killing intent in his eyes dissipated.

Fine.

He would give Tiger Venerable some face.

Previously, he had received Tiger Venerable’s help to enter the divine realm, which had allowed his strength to grow explosively.

Although he was now bound to the Holy Orb and could condense holy gemstones through it to enter the divine realm in the future, he might still need Tiger Venerable’s help later on.

Still, he felt a bit displeased.

Seeing that Fang Heng was not as impulsive as Gideon, shouting to kill upon meeting, Versailles finally breathed a slight sigh of relief and continued, "If you are willing to spare his life, as compensation, we are willing to provide one hundred thousand top-grade dimensional crystals."

One hundred thousand crystals!

The surrounding martial artists gasped upon hearing the number.

Tiger Venerable was indeed generous.

"Hahaha, Tiger Venerable is truly magnanimous. Of course I must give him face."

As soon as Fang Heng heard about the one hundred thousand crystals, the gloom in his heart instantly vanished, and a smile appeared on his face. He glanced at Gideon and asked, "But let me make this clear first. If this kid comes looking for trouble again, what then?"

Versailles nodded. "We can guarantee that if he seeks trouble with you again, it will be his own fault. We will not intervene a second time."

"Good. Then it’s settled."

"Thank you. I will report this matter to Tiger Venerable."

Versailles signaled with his peripheral vision for the blue-robed elders to drag away the unconscious Gideon. He nodded lightly to Fang Heng. "You can redeem the one hundred thousand dimensional crystals on Trial Island later. We will take this person away first. Farewell."

"Mm."

"Oh, one more thing."

As Versailles was about to leave, he thought of something and turned back. "The God Clan is inquiring about your identity. They are very hostile toward necromancy scholars. Tiger Venerable has currently sealed off our dimensional world domain, but once you enter the semifinals, you will deal with the God Clan face-to-face. It would be best to prepare early."

"Thank you for the reminder."

Fang Heng nodded lightly and watched as Versailles and the others quickly disappeared into the galaxy.

Zane immediately turned into a shadow and flew over, clicking his tongue repeatedly. "Fang Heng, you really struck it rich."

"Not bad."

A faint smile appeared on Fang Heng’s face as well.

A huge harvest!

One hundred thousand dimensional crystals!

Enough for him to max out all academic levels across every system!

There would even be some left over to continue raising his dimensional level.

If he had farmed crystals manually, he might not have been able to collect one hundred thousand even after a month.

It had turned misfortune into fortune and saved him a great deal of time.

However...

Fang Heng looked up toward the direction in the galaxy where Versailles and the others had disappeared.

Gideon’s strength was not weak.

He had originally intended to fight Gideon relying solely on necromancy.

He had not expected Gideon’s final trump card to be a move intended to kill him even at the cost of mutual destruction.

At the final moment, he had still used the power of foundational academic integration to forcibly break through the vortex, and then relied on the Ouroboros undead effect to recover rapidly.

Otherwise, he might have been seriously injured.

Fang Heng wondered what ranking Gideon had achieved in the previous Martial Apex Tournament.

There were certainly existences far stronger than Gideon.

For example, the God Clan.

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.

Versailles had also reminded him that the God Clan had already set their sights on him.

The time left for him was limited.

He needed to increase his strength as soon as possible.

Fang Heng said, "Zane."

"Huh? What?"

"The absorption of the Void Abomination’s power is almost complete, right?"

"Of course!" Zane’s eyes lit up as he immediately realized something. "Fang Heng, you’re planning to return to the Endless Domain, aren’t you?"

"Correct. Judging by the time, it’s about right. Let’s head back to the Endless Domain first."

A look of delight instantly appeared in Zane’s eyes. "Hehe, good!"

....

Dimensional world.

Realm Venerable Temple.

"Tiger Venerable."

Gideon had been severely injured. After waking up, the first thing he did was come to see Tiger Venerable. He knelt on both knees before him, fists clenched tightly, nails digging deeply into his flesh.

"I was defeated. I have no excuses. I respectfully ask Tiger Venerable to guide me on the path forward."

Tiger Venerable’s half-closed eyes opened slightly as he sized up Gideon and said leisurely, "Not that I should say this, but you’ve cultivated for so long. You already know how to break through yourself. Telling you again would only waste time."

"Tiger Venerable! I want to enter the light and dark elemental rift."

Tiger Venerable became interested and slowly opened his eyes. "Have you thought it through? With your current ability, entering the light and dark elemental rift is very dangerous. The probability of survival is less than thirty percent."

"I have the resolve to die. If I cannot master the Light and Dark elements, I would rather die."

"Die? You cannot die. I spent so many crystals to buy your life; it was not for you to die. You are more valuable alive than dead."

Tiger Venerable snapped his fingers lightly. "Go. Take him to the Elemental Rift."

"Yes."

At the side, a blue-robed elder signaled for Gideon to rise.

"Many thanks, Tiger Venerable!"

Gideon’s eyes flashed with intense killing intent.

The past hatred and humiliation made him more focused than ever before. There was only one belief in his heart.

Break through.

Beyond the five foundational elements of the elemental system, there were two special elements.

The dark element and the light element.

Since ancient times, fewer than ten people had mastered these two elemental powers, and every one of them had been an absolute powerhouse.

If he could master these two elements, his strength would undergo a qualitative transformation.

Then he would repay everything to Fang Heng a thousandfold, ten-thousandfold.
