In the mountain range, the vast tide of Marrow Beasts was still in a standoff with the disciples of the various factions.

Due to the existence of the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation, the two sides were at an indescribable equilibrium.

However, everyone knew that this was only a temporary stalemate.

As time continued to pass, the balance would eventually be broken.

Before the equilibrium was broken, it would depend on whether the geniuses of the various factions who had entered the depths of the mountain range could kill the Marrow Beast King and return safely.

In this stalemate, time always passed extremely slowly.

Moreover, the longer the stalemate, the more pressure the disciples of the various factions felt, even though there were many of them.

At this time, loud rumbling noises continued to resound from the depths of the mountain range.

Although they were here, they could only sense the aftermath of the commotion in the depths of the mountain range.

However, this did not stop the crowd from becoming increasingly tense as the aftershocks of the commotion spread.

This was because the result of the commotion in the depths of the mountain range also meant the result of everyone here.

Although there were two battlefields, the result was already tied to a line.

As the aftershocks of the huge commotion continued to spread, the tense crowd did not even notice how much time had passed.

They only knew that after what seemed like a century, the faint commotion from the depths of the mountain range finally subsided.

However, just like before, the calming of the commotion did not calm the crowd. Instead, it became even more solemn.

Everyone had a premonition that the results would be revealed in the next few days.

However, this did not surprise the disciples of the various factions. After a few breaths, quite a large commotion came from the depths of the mountain range.

However, what made them heave a sigh of relief was that what appeared from the depths of the mountain range was not an unpredictable Marrow Beast King, but the geniuses of the various factions who had entered the mountain range!

Seeing that, the crowd heaved a sigh of relief. Then, they revealed expressions of joy on their faces.

This scene meant that the combined forces of the various factions had finally succeeded in conquering the Crystal Essence Mountain Range.

The ones who appeared from the depths of the mountain range were naturally Yan Chutian and the others.

As soon as they appeared, they did not hesitate to kill the Marrow Beasts that had been sealed by the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation until they could not move.

As the marrow beasts continued to die, the disciples maintaining the array formation naturally felt much more relaxed.

There were even some disciples who didn't need to use their spirit energy anymore. Instead, they were able to free up their hands and follow the disciples in their respective seats to kill the large group of marrow beasts sealed by the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the Marrow Beasts that were originally everywhere in the mountains were all gone.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the last marrow beast completely disappeared from the world.

"Hu …"

When the last Marrow Beast died, the disciples of the various factions couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. Undisguised joy appeared on each of their faces.

Not long ago, the mountains were filled with marrow beasts. It was as if they were in a hopeless situation.

Hence, they had never expected that they would be able to kill all the marrow beasts that filled the mountains.

Naturally, they would not forget that it was the Sky Array Faction who had proposed the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation.

At the same time, they would not forget that although it was the Tianyang Faction who had proposed the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation, who had turned the tide and made up for the flaws in the array formation, allowing the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation to truly take shape?

For a time, countless gazes filled with reverence looked towards Yan Chutian from all over the world.

In fact, other than the ordinary disciples, the disciples with seats gradually looked towards the former's figure with astonishment.

These disciples with seats were the prides of the various factions who had entered the depths of the mountain range with Yan Chutian to kill the Marrow Beast King.

This was because they knew that the other party had not only turned the tide outside and ensured the formation of the Chaos Origin Heaven Lock Formation.

In the depths of the mountain range, he had also used his own strength to injure the Marrow Beast King and prevent it from absorbing the power of the Crystal Essence from the depths of the earth.

This had allowed them to break through the Marrow Beast King's defenses and truly kill it.

If it had been one of the top prides of the various factions, perhaps they would have been able to accept it easily.

However, when the other party was Yan Chutian, a disciple of the Cloud Sky Faction who had just entered the third layer of the Heaven Palace stage, they naturally found it somewhat hard to believe.

However, no matter how hard it was to believe, they knew that this was the truth.

The truth was the truth, and there was no room for refutation.

… …

Now that the Crystal Essence Mountains had been conquered, the temporary cooperation between the eight factions had also come to an end.

After the various factions had quickly reorganized themselves, the upper echelons of each faction gathered together and began to compete for their own benefits.

As for the benefits of this competition, it was naturally the territories that each faction could occupy in the Crystal Essence Mountains.

Yan Chutian was not very interested in such a competition of benefits. Moreover, he knew that Mu Yi was better at such things.

Therefore, during the competition, he quietly sat cross-legged to the side and closed his eyes to rest, paying attention to the movements around him.

In fact, apart from being uninterested in the competition of benefits, Yan Chutian also knew that because of his performance, even the Tianyang faction would not be able to find an excuse to exploit the Cloud Sky Faction.

After listening, the results were indeed as he had expected.

As a result, under such a competition of interests, their Cloud Sky lineage had vaguely occupied an extremely large amount of land.

Yan Chutian was well aware that if he had not turned the tide twice, the Tianyang faction would not have watched as the Cloud Sky Faction occupied such a large and juicy piece of meat.

Because of him, even if they were unwilling, they could only do so in secret.

After all, he had turned the tide twice, making it impossible for them to voice any objections.

However, Yan Chutian was also well aware that the Tianyang faction and the Cloud Sky Faction would never truly reconcile.

In other words, the situation today would only make them hate the Cloud Sky Faction even more.

Next time, if he was able to grasp the opportunity, he would definitely launch a barrage of attacks at him.

But even so, he, Yan Chutian, would not be afraid.

Moreover, as his cultivation continued to recover, the chances of the Tianyang faction would only become smaller and smaller.

Once he completely recovered, even the Tianyang faction would not dare to casually oppress the Cloud Sky Faction like before!

After a while, the competition of benefits between the eight factions came to an end.

After it ended, the disciples of the various factions, under the leadership of the disciples in the seats, occupied mountain after mountain and began to search for the crystal essence hidden in the depths of the earth.

At such a time, Yan Chutian would not be polite. He immediately led his disciples to occupy the mountains with the densest crystal essence auras and began to search quickly.

At this moment, the dozens of bronze plate disciples following Yan Chutian could not help but feel that they were extremely lucky.

Even Lu Xiong no longer looked at Yan Chutian with an enigmatic gaze from before. Instead, it was filled with reverence.

To put it simply, this world worshipped the strong after all.

And Yan Chutian had completely subdued Lu Xiong with his astonishing performance time and time again.

However, Yan Chutian did not care about this. The current him no longer cared about people like Lu Xiong.

Moreover, at this moment, he did not have the time to care.

Since he had helped his disciples occupy so many treasured lands, he had to fight for his own benefits.

After working so hard for so long, it was naturally time to reap the rewards.

Without waiting for an explanation, Yan Chutian had already opened his Spirit Eye slightly. His perception swept out quickly, including the mountains under his feet.

Even without using his Spirit Eye, he could sense the extremely dense crystal essence auras on these mountains.

However, he could not occupy all of them. At most, he could occupy one or two places with the densest crystal essence auras.

With the power of his Spirit Eye, Yan Chutian naturally locked onto them in a few breaths of time.

After locking onto his target, he immediately descended. After descending to the top of one of the mountains, he directly transformed his spiritual energy into a sharp blade and abruptly slashed at the mountain top.

With a seemingly light touch, the mountain top was cut open by Yan Chutian's spiritual energy blade.

After the mountain top was cut open, an incomparably dense crystal essence aura suddenly soared into the sky.

Such a commotion immediately attracted the attention of the disciples of the various factions in other directions.
