"How did they discover me?"

Xiao Mu was surprised at how the outer beings had discovered him; he had already been quite cautious, and with his powerful strength and exceptional ability to hide his tracks, he should not have been found in theory.

Woosh woosh woosh!

Five outer Mutated Beings set down the mummy and suddenly used their Escape Art to move towards where Xiao Mu was hidden.

"I can't let them see me, change!"

Xiao Mu activated the Hidden Life Technique and turned into dust, then the Great Decree blew him over, sweeping past the feet of the five outer Mutated Beings.

The one who had been intent on investigating the movements from beyond the sky had no wish to engage with these five outer Mutated Beings for the time being.

The five outer Mutated Beings halted their Escape Light at Xiao Mu's hiding spot, yet they did not discover his whereabouts.

"Gui Lian, didn't you say you found someone? Where are they?"

A middle-aged Mutated Being with a large beard and a robust build turned to ask the leading man from the Life and Death Sect, skepticism clear on his face.

The man from the Life and Death Sect, Gui Lian, defended himself: "Just now, my Divine Detection Talisman suddenly alerted me, clearly indicating that there was a human world Mutated Being hiding here."

"Heh heh!"

The robust and tall-bearded Mutated Being from the Five Elements Sect laughed contemptuously, "The indication from the Divine Detection Talisman isn't necessarily accurate. Now that the Canglin Region is sealed off on all sides and Azure Sky City is surrounded, no outsiders can come in, and insiders can't leave. How could someone from the eastern territories appear in the Canglin Region? I think you're just being paranoid!"

"Perhaps I was being paranoid!"

Gui Lian from the Life and Death Sect replied without much conviction but still uneasily scanned the surroundings. Finding no trace of the human world Mutated Being, he had no choice but to say, "The main task is critical, let's hurry and carry the Ancient Corpse to the Ten Thousand Tribulations Array!"

"You're the one who's making a big deal out of nothing!"

The robust, bearded Mutated Being from the Five Elements Sect muttered discontentedly, and the five people turned back to carry the Ancient Corpse and continue forward.

Xiao Mu reappeared and followed, this time with even more caution.

A day later, these five Yin God Realm corpse carriers finally arrived at a peculiar valley.

Crack! Boom! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

A thunderbolt suddenly descended from the sky, lightning split the firmament, and the rolling sound of thunder approached from afar as a torrential downpour fell from the skies.

The weather inside the valley was completely different from the world outside. Outside the valley was a perfectly clear day, but inside the valley it poured heavily.

Continuous flashes of lightning and thunder appeared in the sky above the valley, densely packed, weaving into a net-like pattern, as if a massive trap had been laid in the sky above the valley, causing Xiao Mu, who was passing beneath, to involuntarily feel a tingling in his scalp.

The weather in the valley was so intense that it was mixed with terrifying Divine Power, oppressive to the point of making one breathless.

It seemed that within the bizarre valley, a fearsome being was hidden.

Xiao Mu's heart was filled with doubt, yet he mustered his courage to follow the five Yin God Realm corpse carriers further ahead.

Crack! Hiss hiss hiss!

A thunderbolt struck the ground, causing black smoke to rise from the soil.

"Such powerful Tribulation Force, Xiao kid, there might be a True God from the Retribution System ahead, you must be careful!"

Wu De, the Divine Monarch, suddenly communicated with Divine Sense, his tone becoming solemn when mentioning a True God from the Retribution System.

"A True God from the Retribution System, what kind of identity is that?" Xiao Mu was shocked.

True Gods, no matter which system they belonged to, were far beyond his current ability to contend with.

Wu De's reply was filled with uncertainty, "Unclear, it's most likely the Guobao Divine Monarch."

"This being seems not to have truly descended yet, otherwise, the phenomena wouldn't be like this. You can follow to have a look, but you must be extremely cautious. Of course, the safest choice would be to retreat immediately and stay away from this valley."

"The strength of the Guobao Divine Monarch is not something you can contend with. If I were in my prime, I could perhaps have a battle with this being!"

Xiao Mu followed for a while longer, and then the five corpse carriers entered a Light Circle that was like a Great Array.

Outside the Great Array, at least seven or eight Yin God Realm Mutated Beings and two Divine Spirits of the Divine Spirit Realm were standing guard.

The Light Circle exuded a terrifying aura, suggesting the presence of even stronger beings inside.

Xiao Mu stopped to watch for a moment and ultimately found no opportunity to sneak in. Moreover, even if he could, it was too dangerous. He therefore silently retreated and began walking back towards the outside of the Valley.

"People from the Heavenly Court might be preparing for the arrival of the Guobao Divine Monarch. Although I don't know why they are doing this, Xiao kid, your human world is in danger. Once Guobao Divine Monarch descends, there will be no one who can resist."

Wu De, the Divine Monarch, transmitted his voice again, his words deepening Xiao Mu's sense of seriousness.

After leaving the valley, Xiao Mu thought for a while and ultimately headed toward Azure Sky City.

Regarding how to deal with the impending arrival of the Guobao Divine Monarch, he decided to figure it out with the elders of Azure Sky City.

Meanwhile, Xiao Mu was somewhat puzzled. With the outer beings having sealed off the Canglin Region and surrounded Azure Sky City, as well as the presence of powerhouses, why didn't they attack Azure Sky City with all their might?

With the strength of those from beyond, if they went all out against Azure Sky City, perhaps it would have fallen by now, right?

Why wait for the arrival of the Guobao Divine Monarch? Isn't such an approach superfluous?

He voiced his thoughts as a question, and after pondering, Wu De, the Divine Monarch, responded: "The key lies with the Human Emperor. He is very strange. Although he is in slumber, I always feel that he has some aces up his sleeve, ready to erupt at any moment. Perhaps the outsiders are wary of him!"

"Is it because of the Human Emperor predecessor?" Once again, Xiao Mu fell into thought. But after a long time, he couldn't figure out what kind of trump cards the Human Emperor could possess that would make the outsiders so wary they did not dare to attack Azure Sky City with all their strength. Eventually, he stopped pondering it.
