Great Wasteland City.
Above the Void.
An elderly figure appeared, his robust frame and cold expression exuding an imposing aura.
“Heavenly Mechanism Tower.”
The old man was none other than Beichen Heng.
With the strength of a Saint King, he had traveled from the Tianyin Empire to Great Wasteland City in a very short amount of time, as if just lifting his foot and stepping forward had already brought him here.
“This tower... seems unusual...”
Beichen Heng furrowed his brows.
He gazed at the Heavenly Mechanism Tower below and felt an odd sense of foreboding.
With his keen eye, he found himself unable to see through this tower. Despite the Heavenly Mechanism Tower being so close, it seemed shrouded in mist, and when he used his divine sense to probe, all he encountered was emptiness.
It was as if this tower existed in a different space altogether.
Should he approach or not?
At that moment, Beichen Heng hesitated.
It seemed that Beichen Heng was not lying to him—the Heavenly Mechanism Tower's master was indeed extraordinary. At the very least, Beichen Heng couldn't fathom the depth of this individual. To be precise, he couldn't even see through a mere tower.
The master was still unseen.
“Hm?”
Just as Beichen Heng was in a state of uncertainty,
At the horizon,
An old man and a young man appeared, coming together.
The person on the left had white hair and a beard, wearing a blue robe. He had a gaunt face, but there was an undeniable pride in his demeanor. His eyes swept over the city below with clear disdain.
The person on the right appeared to be no older than twenty, holding a folding fan and exuding an elegant, refined air. However, the deep wisdom in his eyes hinted at experiences beyond his apparent youth, as if he had witnessed the rise and fall of countless eras.
“Two Saints?”
Beichen Heng's heart stirred. He looked at them closely, then sneered in disdain.
“So, it's people who forcibly boosted their cultivation with pills.”
“Judging by their destination, it seems they too are heading for the Heavenly Mechanism Tower. This might be a good opportunity for me to observe the depths of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower!”
With that thought, Beichen Heng made up his mind.
He retracted all his aura and descended into Great Wasteland City, passing through the formation without causing a stir.
At the end of the day, the Saint King-level formation was still lacking.
Even Saint-level formations wouldn't be enough to stop him.
...
In Front of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower.
The two Saints stood side by side. The younger of the two opened his folding fan with a swift motion, gently waving it as he spoke lightly:
“So, this is the Heavenly Mechanism Tower? Quite intriguing. Even with my power, I can't see through its depths. This must be some sort of formation. To be able to do this…”
“That master of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower must not only be able to divine the future, but also be a Master of Formations. If we can bring him to Yao Guang Sacred Land, perhaps Tian Gang Sect could rise to even greater heights!”
Though the young man appeared youthful, his tone was that of a long-lived being, carrying the weight of countless years.
They were the two Saints that Hong Yuanshan had brought along.
They did not hail from Yao Guang Sacred Land, but from Tian Gang Sect, a subordinate sect of Yao Guang Sacred Land.
“To discern the Yin and Yang, and sever the Five Elements,
To grasp the Sun and Moon in one's hands.
To understand the past and future, and perceive the Six Directions,
To conceal the universe in one's sleeve.
The Heavenly Mechanism can be divined!”
The old man recited a couplet, stroking his beard with a smile.
“Senior Brother is right. The Heavenly Mechanism Tower's master truly seems capable. Not only can he divine a Saint's fate, but also the whereabouts of the Divine Ascension Method. This is truly terrifying.”
“He has revealed such significant secrets of the Heavenly Mechanism, and he must now be burdened with Heavenly Punishment. Only a force like Yao Guang Sacred Land might be able to assist him now.”
“Indeed.”
The young man nodded, folding his fan and pointing at the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, saying calmly,
“Let's go. Let's meet this remarkable person.”
With that, the two walked into the Heavenly Mechanism Tower, one following the other.
...
Inside the Heavenly Mechanism Tower.
Li Yun was lying lazily in a chair, flipping through a while occasionally sipping some tea.
Upon hearing footsteps,
He turned his head to look.
As soon as he saw the two figures, two system panels automatically appeared in front of him.

“Hm???”
Li Yun immediately sat up upon reading the information.
What the hell?
What is Yao Guang Sacred Land up to?
I don't recall ever hearing about this place, yet they've already sent people to capture me?
Could it be...
Is it because my guidance of Ren Qingtu and Beichen Heng has spread?
“Damn...”
Li Yun muttered a curse under his breath.
I made a miscalculation.
Originally, I thought my reputation would draw people who would come to inquire about various matters, but I never expected to underestimate human nature.
Some people don't want to make the effort to travel across millions of miles, wasting time, money, and energy.
So now, they plan to capture me.
“I take it, this must be the master of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower,”
Cheng Wugou stepped forward elegantly, gracefully cupping his hands in greeting.
“Is there something you need?”
Li Yun's expression darkened.
Coming to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower was fine, but trying to kidnap me?
Why should I give them any courtesy?
Not killing them directly was already a gesture of respect.
