They're truly too strong. From what he felt at that moment, it was as if the heavens and earth were shattering, as if the world was ending. He felt like he was in hell itself, where any random wisp of aura seemed like a soul-snatching Grim Reaper.

The women in the Cultivation World really are terrifying when they fight, Wang Mu thought, mixed feelings welling up inside him.

He was somewhat unsettled by the words he had just heard from Mu Lanxue; he couldn't tell if they were true or false.

An unknown amount of time passed. Above, the sky suddenly changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light. Fortunately, the Linglong Love Abyss offered a certain degree of isolation…

Eh... For a moment, Wang Mu felt very melancholic. Forget it, I'll just fish, he resolved.

With that, he drew up his fishing rod and cast the line into the Abyss. He couldn't calm down otherwise; only fishing could settle his mind.

The line had just entered the Abyss when a teasing, clear voice rang out.

"Oh my, someone sure is carefree, aren't they? With two peerless experts fighting furiously above, shaking almost the entire Cultivation World of Huang Province, you still have the mood for fishing here?"

"Who?"

Wang Mu turned around and saw a figure in the distance, entirely pixelated. Within that blurred face, he could vaguely make out a smile that wasn't quite a smile.

"It's you again!" Wang Mu exclaimed.

"Correct, it's me again!" The figure approached. "Last time, I was interrupted. This time, well, those two are *really* fighting now… so they won't be able to disturb me."

? Wang Mu thought.

Last time... He remembered Nanrong Biyou had wanted to use the Divine Fish on herself, but Yan Qingwu had arrived in time to stop her. In retrospect, Nanrong Biyou must have been trying to deceive me, because the Divine Fish couldn't possibly be used twice. How could such a Supreme Treasure, possessing the power of cause and effect, be used a second time?

This time... Wang Mu glanced at the freshly caught Bimodal Exquisite Fish beside him, his pupils shrinking. Damn! It's real this time! And...

"What do you want to do?"

Wang Mu's heart sank. He picked up the Bimodal Exquisite Fish. Should I just kill it immediately? he wondered.

"Of course, I am here to finish what we didn't get to do last time," the figure said with a light chuckle. "You want to resist? That would be pointless, you know…"

"Freeze!"

The moment the word fell, Wang Mu's entire body froze, unable to move; only his eyes could roll. He could only watch helplessly as the figure lightly waved her hand. The Divine Fish was controlled in midair, spinning rapidly in her palm.

Wang Mu steeled his heart. It's over! Last time, even if Yan Qingwu hadn't come, Nanrong Biyou would have been helpless because that Divine Fish was surely useless. But this time, it's a brand new Divine Fish, just caught. Even if it might be the last one in the Linglong Love Abyss, it's still enough to end my life! This Bi You is too cunning!

Last time, she deliberately said those words to Yan Qingwu and Mu Lanxue. It was very likely her intention for Yan Qingwu to bring me to the Linglong Love Abyss to fish for another Divine Fish. Simultaneously, this would also attract Mu Lanxue, ensuring both of them would come to the Linglong Love Abyss and wait! Once they arrived, they were bound to fight! Because, after all, that place was the Sword Sect Holy Land, and Yan Qingwu was present. Bi You couldn't have taken me from the Sword Sect entirely on her own, so she had to devise this strategy. Realizing this, Wang Mu understood everything in an instant.

"Hmph, let's see who you really are!" the figure said, a hint of excitement in her voice, like a mischievous child about to solve a puzzle.

The next moment, the Divine Fish circled Wang Mu. Its two fish heads merged into one, its body transformed into a millstone, and its eyes turned into game pieces, achieving Yin Yang Union as it spun with the mysteries of Zhou Tian.

In an instant, a beam of light burst forth from the Divine Fish's eyes, shining upon Wang Mu and forming a rippling mirror of light.

A figure began to appear in the light mirror.

Wang Mu trembled all over, his scalp tingling. At this moment, he felt as if the secret links treasured on his phone and the 'study materials' on his D drive were about to be discovered—an imminent social death by exposure!

He watched…

The figure watched too…

The light mirror trembled slightly and began to reveal the image…

However, at the very moment of revelation, an extreme blur occurred. It was like a video feed disrupted by interference, showing only black and white particles and a highly obscured silhouette…

"Hm?" The figure was extremely astonished. "Karmic concealment? Who? Who concealed your karmic destiny? Even the Divine Fish cannot fully reveal it?"

Immediately afterward, one shadow after another began to slowly appear.

But they were only shadows, their outlines extremely vague, impossible to see clearly.

Wang Mu stared blankly, somewhat bewildered.

The figure was also staring blankly because the sheer number of emerging shadows was overwhelming.

One after another…

"One, two, three… five, six… seven…" The figure counted silently, her confusion growing. "Kid, you seem to have quite a lot of future partners, huh?"

Wang Mu was speechless. ...

Even after seven, more shadows continued to appear. He stared in disbelief. What? This Divine Fish has to be broken! It's absolutely slandering me!

Finally, the Divine Fish trembled abruptly, as if it couldn't bear the burden any longer.

BOOM!

All the revealed shadows dissolved into a mass of chaos, as if they had never existed.

Everything returned to calm.

The Divine Fish swayed its body, seeming to have lost its luster, yet also as if it had completed its mission, shimmering with an inexplicable radiance.

Silence. A long silence.

Wang Mu wasn't sure what was going on. Had the Divine Fish's effect on him not worked? Or had it somehow?

"In this world, those who possess such means to conceal karmic destiny…" The figure chuckled lightly. "Only people from the Creation Gate have this ability. You're quite something, kid. You actually have connections with the Creation Gate?"
