I Am Supreme
Chapter 882: Somebody Underneath

"Cough— Enough, enough, that's enough. How am I supposed to use so many of them? I don't need those two, especially at the crotch of my pants. That would be too much, a literal exploitation of deific entities…" The little fatty was mortified by the turn the conversation was taking.

"Begone!"

"Yes, sir!"

The little fatty bore no resentment at being yelled at. He was close to abasing himself on the ground to pledge his loyalty!

Yun Yang was very satisfied with this location, content enough to set up the sect here.

After shaking loose any possible form of pursuit, Yun Yang took two more days to ensure that his surroundings were safe. He had finally decided to set up the sect among these mountains!

"This shall be the place."

Yun Yang closed his eyes and lapsed into deep thought, imagining how he would want his sect to look.

A place that they could easily defend themselves, and a place enemies would find tough to attack — that would be the top priority.

Grandiosity, good taste, and all these other things… there was no need for that for now. As long as it was clean and proper, equipped with adequate spiritual Qi, that would do.

Oh yes, there had to be sufficient space to fight or practice — this was certainly a must…

After disguising himself and changing his looks, the little fatty took off in a dash. He had no business being here — money-making was his only real duty.

Yun Yang was not at all worried that the little fatty would take off on his own with the items.

It was just that little bit of treasure anyway. If that little fatty really ran away, Yun Yang would not be at a terrible loss.

It was really something too small to be concerned about.

However, if that little fatty managed to return with the finished errand… he would be a great help in the future!

The only concern on his mind now was the mountainous landscape before him, and how he should manage them.

Even as he continued to ruminate, the silhouette of a white banner was quickly summoned.

Yun Yang transformed into his cloud form and rode the winds.

With a small portion of his will, he sketched the shape of the valley he desired.

When he reached an altitude of ten thousand feet, he thrust his stroke downwards.

Boom!

Suddenly, the land below shifted and the mountains quivered, then cracked and collapsed!

Within moments, the entire scene changed completely — it had become a complete mess!

Yun Yang stood amongst the clouds, looking down at the mountains and rivers beneath his feet. Without further hesitation, he put his will into his thoughts and changed the landscape bit by bit, slowly transforming it into how he had imagined it to be. The scene manifested from mere imagination into reality, and that had filled him with an enormous surge of wonder.

The peak of a mountain protruded from the ground. On its tip, eight tiny peaks formed on its left and right, forming a vague line of defense that protected the northern-most peak.

A large and flat piece of land laid within the nine peaks. On top of those nine peaks, there were similar plateaus as well.

These grounds would be reserved as a practice arena for combat purposes.

Since it was named the Residence of Nine Supremes, naturally there should be nine peaks dedicated to the mortal world. Normally, the nine leaders would each occupy a side. They would coordinate with each other from afar, assisting one another and preventing the enemy from crossing over into their territories. Reinforcements would just be a call away if anything happened.

In addition, a battle formation was actually concealed within the formation of these nine peaks — one that could largely benefit their attacking and defensive strategies. Furthermore, with the situation before them closely resembling an all-natural environment, one could say that this was the most naturally-developed formation that ever existed.

Using this as a base, the layers of mountains originally surrounding the area were pushed outwards.

Here, the geographical landscape of the Residence of Nine Supremes was truly unique, evidently standing out from the rest.

The rest of the empty lands would be used to construct buildings. Members of the sect were the fundamentals of the sect after all, so naturally sufficient space should be reserved to build the necessary structures; as for what he wanted, or what sort of architecture should be built, Yun Yang had a vague idea in his mind that only needed to be detailed to perfection in the near future.

At this point, the basic construction for his sect was almost complete. The effects of the white banner limited, but it was enough to surprise Yun Yang. With just a wave of this white banner, the massive power unleashed could cause such a massive change in such a short time.

It was just a banner, one that was the lowest class amongst all the Celestial Luck Banners within the renowned sects — the white banner which was deemed the most useless one of all.

He looked on as the silhouette of the white banner slowly disintegrated, bursting into a wisp of green smoke and vanishing forever before his eyes. At this moment, Yun Yang understood that was the extent of the banner's function — the only thing it left behind was a mark on his body.

However, this was already an incredible power — a power that could shock the entire universe!

"Imagine, this little thing could really cause such a catastrophic change."

When analyzed in detail though, besides changing the appearance of the valley's landscape, there wasn't anything more to the function of this transformation. Still, that was all it took to be deemed as a great achievement — something that was hardly achievable with the abilities of a mere human!

When it came to mother nature, no matter how vast or formidable a person's cultivation levels were, the only outcome one could amount to was to destroy it. It was never like this — shifting mountains and reorganizing lands to the point where the landscape was almost unrecognizable.

"What's left now is to get the men."

"This would be something that I could do less with than to have too much of." Yun Yang muttered to himself.

The Residence of Nine Supremes had always been the driving force in Yun Yang's heart.

Whether or not he could reassemble a new ensemble of Nine Supremes, Yun Yang was not too bothered by the potential difficulties.

From his point of view, it did not truly matter if he could not assemble them all.

After all, as long as his being was here, it represented every single one of his brothers of the Nine Supremes — everybody was present!

No matter how many men were recruited, or what kind of people they were in the future, Yun Yang would never give them titles like Supreme Earth, Supreme Fire, Supreme Wind… or names remotely similar to these.

Although it was more of some casual banter when he was making fun of Qian Duoduo being Supreme Money, it was an attempt to give Qian Duoduo another choice of being one of the candidates for the new line-up of Nine Supremes. In a man's life, one may be entitled to make many choices, but luck has nothing to do with it!

"Now that the basic landscape for the sect is complete, I should further secure it with a formation and plan out our defenses."

Yun Yang gave due consideration to this next endeavor.

An idea like that made perfect sense. Completing the basic construction of the landscape was nothing more than building a castle in the desert — it might look good, but it was completely useless. If they encountered an expert and a fight ensued, it would be hard to fend off the force of the incoming attacks. Before a huge battle could even end, the entire landscape would most likely be destroyed.

Thus, casting a large defensive formation to protect the mountain was a non-negotiable step.

While Yun Yang willed his intent, he heard a resentful voice full of rage coming from below his feet.

"Who's that up there? What kind of bastard would do such a d*ckless, disrespectful, absolutely despicable and disgusting thing?"

That brash voice carried an exorbitant amount of rage.

Following the angry epithets, a head with a filthy face and frizzy hair emerged from the midst of a pile of rubble in a landscape full of smoke and dust located just beyond the nine peaks.

The original color of the robes that man was wearing was completely indiscernible. He was extremely filthy — the only thing that stood out was the spark in his eyes, looking as if they could spit fire.

…

Shi Wuchen was mad!

He was furious beyond belief!

He had been gravely injured by his nemesis. Due to their massive influence and forces, they had been in pursuit of him to just about any corner of the world, and he had been hiding and evading them with a body filled with wounds. Only when he arrived here had he successfully managed to lose his pursuers, and to his surprise, he had unexpectedly discovered a ground meridian concealed below.

Shi Wuchen was absolutely delighted at the discovery he had stumbled upon. He dived into it instantly, tending to his wounds with the spiritual Qi extracted from that ground meridian. However, due to the severity of his wounds which had been left untreated for too long, it became a grave, lingering condition; he had only managed to recover by thirty percent, even after the three years he had spent tending to it.

He was in the midst of healing himself down below when the mountains suddenly began to quiver and the grounds began to shift. The entire land seemed to have been turned inside out, and that ground meridian suddenly changed its path. Initially situated underground, he soon found himself churned above the surface gracelessly, then buried underneath the ground by countless large rocks!

First, his internal elements had run amuck, and the next thing he knew was that he had been crushed by huge rocks. If it was not for the fact that his cultivation base had been slightly restored, he might have already lost his dear life from this unexpected occurrence, dying a death filled with resentment!
