But the fact that the tower of Absolute Knowledge can continuously create black shadows makes Di Ting's special abilities less surprising.

As for the realm limit possessed by the Di Ting bloodline, Wen Ping has long dismissed it.

Because the bloodline limit of the Demon Race of Demon Emperor Lake has long been eliminated.

Di Ting's limit is now not even higher than a single blade of grass in Demon Emperor Lake.

Di Ting questioned suspiciously, "Since Sect Leader Wen has no intention of recruiting me, why spare my life?"

"When the time comes for me to use you, you will understand."

Why keep Di Ting.

Wen Ping is doing it for future preparation.

In a few days, when constructing the Demon Race, Wen Ping needs a living Di Ting as the first test subject.

But that's all for later.

After restraining Di Ting, Wen Ping left a message for Chen Xie, along with a high-level Realm-Breaking Pill, and then said: "Once Sword Demon has completely recovered, give him the Realm-Breaking Pill. If he can use it to step into Celestial Unrestricted, it shows his luck is good. If not, the energy in the Realm-Breaking Pill will be enough to stabilize his Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted realm."

Tomorrow at noon, the Curved Realm Passage will open.

Whether Sword Demon breaks through to Celestial Unrestricted depends solely on luck.

If luck is not favorable, Sword Demon can still stabilize his Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted realm, which is also a good thing for Wen Ping.

After stowing away the Realm-Breaking Pill, Chen Xie quickly asked, "Sect Leader, how should we deal with the Hundred Sects Alliance? I worry that while we're battling the tower of Heaven's Cover, they'll stab us in the back. If we face both internal and external troubles at the same time, we might find it very difficult."

Although the Hundred Sects Alliance doesn't have many strong individuals, not even a Half-Step Earth Unrestricted, their numbers are overwhelming.

Getting stabbed in the back would absolutely be a troublesome matter for the Immortal Sect.

Does it mean slaughtering all the people in Vast City?

"With external enemies looming, you've reminded me that if we don't deal with the internal threat of the Hundred Sects Alliance, they will always cause trouble for us." Though Wen Ping doesn't care much about the Hundred Sects Alliance, having mosquitoes buzzing around is indeed vexing.

Wen Ping immediately fell into contemplation.

He already has a plan for dealing with the Hundred Sects Alliance.

They can leave it to the Wanderer Post to dismantle them.

But now, with the invasion of Heaven and Earth Lake by the tower of Heaven's Cover impending, the Wanderer Post has already retreated due to its weakness.

After pondering for a moment, Wen Ping finalized the plan.

"Use the Sound Transmission Stone to contact Pei Wu, command him to stop with the high-level Wanderer Post and stay put. Transmit to Long Yue, instruct him to immediately visit Bright Mirror Lake to inform the Silver Level Chiefs of the situation. In fifteen minutes, I will use the Teleportation Array to send them to Vast City."

"Understood!"

Chen Xie swiftly retreated to the side, using the Sound Transmission Stone to contact Pei Wu.

...

At that, Pei Wu was withdrawing the army of Wanderer Post outside Bright Mirror Lake, standing at the mountain peak, looking at his severely wounded and dead people, grief rising in his heart.

He worries not only about today's decline but also about the future.

Where should Wanderer Post go from here?

With the invasion of Heaven and Earth Lake by the tower of Heaven's Cover, how should they survive?

They can't even handle an Earth Unrestricted expert easily, yet according to Chen Xie, Earth Unrestricted in the tower of Heaven's Cover is merely an ordinary character.

"When this world abandons you, it won't even say goodbye."

Pei Wu sighed.

Suddenly, the Sound Transmission Stone emitted a sound.

Pei Wu quickly drew out the Sound Transmission Stone from his bosom, the look of desolation on his face vanished.

The sound from the Sound Transmission Stone indicated that Chen Xie was contacting him.

"Elder Chen?"

"It's me."

Chen Xie's voice came through.

Pei Wu's face immediately lit up with a smile, a hint of expectation in his gaze.

He hoped Chen Xie would bring some good news.

Though it's difficult.

The only way out for Wanderer Post is through the Immortal Sect.

"Elder Chen, do you need anything?" Pei Wu asked tentatively.

Chen Xie responded, "Bring your high-level Wanderer Post, stay where you are and wait. This is the Sect Leader's order!"

"Understood!" Pei Wu asked again, "Elder Chen, we..."

Chen Xie interrupted Pei Wu's question, saying, "The Sect Leader didn't tell me more, just gather your people and wait. Without surprises, in fifteen minutes you'll face the people of the Hundred Sects Alliance in Vast City."

"I'll go gather the people now!"

Pei Wu nodded in response.

Facing the people of the Hundred Sects Alliance, is this the final resolution?

With this expectation, Pei Wu hurriedly gathered all the high-level Wanderer Post, then disappeared from the spot in a flash of white light.

...

Bright Mirror Lake.

Hundred Sects Alliance base.

After a defeat, plus the death of strong individuals from the tower of Heaven's Cover, the Hundred Sects Alliance's morale was at rock-bottom.

Although it's stabilized under the Silver Level Chiefs, no one has the heart to continue fighting.

Continuing the fight would be a sure path to death.

This battle wasn't one they should have been part of.

This is a battle above Earth Unrestricted.

They are only at the Divine Profound Realm, at most the Mountain Suppression Realm.

"The demon horde has disappeared."

"The demon horde has withdrawn!"

"They've really withdrawn!"

When the news of the Demon Race's retreat reached the camp, the Hundred Sects Alliance members were overjoyed and relieved.

No matter the reason for the Demon Race's withdrawal, it was good news for them.

They managed to keep their lives.

Not long after they were immersed in joy, Long Yue appeared above the Hundred Sects Alliance with a Magic Broom.

"Where are your Silver Level Chiefs?"

As Long Yue's questioning voice came, everyone looked towards the sky.

They had long witnessed Long Yue riding the Magic Broom.

Earth Unrestricted Expert!

At this moment, they were all panicking.

The newly promoted Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression Silver Level Chiefs could only come out of the tent hesitantly.

Unable to resist, they had no choice but to comply obediently.

"We are here."

The seven responded, their hearts filled with apprehension.

Even if Long Yue moved a finger, they felt he was going to use Vein Technique to kill them.

"You seven? Alright, then call over your Sect Leaders of the Five-star Giant Influence. We will send you back to Vast City later. This is the Sect Leader's order, don't make him wait, or none of you will survive. I have a good temper, but our Sect Leader is ill-tempered and kills without hesitation."

After Long Yue finished speaking, the seven smiled awkwardly.

The Immortal Sect Leader's order?

Since when were they supposed to follow the Immortal Sect Leader's orders?

The seven looked at each other, but ultimately nodded in agreement.

With the Celestial Unrestricted experts here, what did they matter?

Better save their lives first!

A quarter hour later, the seven Silver Level Chiefs and dozens of Five-star Giant Influence leaders were transported away by the Teleportation Array.

...

Vast City.

White light descended one after another.

The wanderers and Hundred Sects Alliance Silver Level Chiefs appeared outside the headquarters of the Hundred Sects Alliance.

When Pei Wu and others saw those from the Hundred Sects Alliance, they immediately opened the Meridian Gate.

Dozens of people faced each other fiercely, tensions rising, ready to fight.

At this moment, Chen Xie walked out from the headquarters, scanned the crowd coldly, and then said, "Put away your Meridian Gates. Follow me inside; the Sect Leader wants to see you."

Pei Wu and the others had no choice but to close their Meridian Gates.

Then began walking inside, quickly followed by the Hundred Sects Alliance members, who soon sped up, trying to outpace Pei Wu and the others.

Even their walking became competitive!

Inside the great hall of the headquarters, Wen Ping stood on high, hands behind his back.

"Sect Leader Wen!"

"Greetings, Sect Leader Wen!"

Once inside, Pei Wu and the others immediately bowed to pay their respects.

The Hundred Sects Alliance members hesitated, looking at each other indecisively.

The seven Silver Level Chiefs, however, recognized the situation.

Given this was the headquarters of the Hundred Sects Alliance, Wen Ping's presence likely meant he had already eliminated the Celestial Unrestricted individuals.

With powerful opponents like that defeated, what could they do?

After the seven Silver Level Chiefs bowed, the remaining Five-star Influence leaders followed suit.

Once the members of the Hundred Sects Alliance lowered their heads, Wen Ping finally spoke.

"I have gathered you all with only one purpose, and that is to thoroughly understand this war at Heaven and Earth Lake."

Pei Wu rejoiced.

The wanderers were also pleased.

But the Hundred Sects Alliance members looked worried.

Pei Wu immediately responded, "Sect Leader Wen, whatever you say, that's what I'll do! I will follow your lead!"

Following closely, the group of wanderers also loudly echoed.

"We follow your lead!"

"We follow your lead!"

"We follow your lead!"

The faces of the wanderers darkened further.

It was like they'd eaten something unpleasant.

(Thanks to long-time reader Qilin for the 4000 reward... hehe... with you here, I'm very happy.)
