As soon as Yu Tong appeared, he extended his hand and grabbed, directly retrieving the azure-black Netherworld Divine Halberd from the River of Netherworld. In the air, he fiercely thrust it toward Zun.

Boom!

The high skies seemed to be pierced, breaking through space, ignoring distance, instantly arriving in front of Zun.

"Is this the best you can do?"

Zun remained unbothered. In front of him, five-color divine light suddenly illuminated, transforming into a wall of light. With a deafening rumble, it blocked Yu Tong's Netherworld Halberd.

Next, Zun made his move. True Five Elements Power surged up behind him. With a sweep of his hand, it transformed into the Five Elements Greatsword. He swung the sword directly, furiously slashing down at Yu Tong.

Bang!

Yu Tong withdrew his hand, reclaiming the Netherworld Halberd to block. As the two treasures collided, a terrifying sound erupted. The two figures simultaneously flew toward each other and clashed in a fierce battle.

"The Human world is using the Teleportation Mirror to forcefully breach the channel. Stop them immediately!"

Yu Tong, after flying away, shouted a reminder to the Mutated Beings from the Heavenly Court.

"Xiao Mu, Xiao Mu, get out here for me!"

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Court, amidst the ranks of Mutated Beings who were preparing to enter the channel, an elder stepped forth, riding a cloud of Five Elements True Gold. He hovered mid-air, challenging the Human world.

The Gold Spirit God!

Xiao Mu recognized the elder but ignored him.

The Zhou Xuanmen hadn't issued an order. How could he act impulsively and disrupt the Human world's plan?

Besides, at this critical time, the priority was entering the array. There was no need to engage in pointless conflicts with this person.

He killed the Five Elements Patriarch (using the Wild Man's hand). Why should he bother with an ordinary True God Realm member of the Five Elements Sect?

Encountering him within the array, killing him directly would suffice.

"Five Elements Authority—that's the patriarch's authority. Xiao Mu, you've taken the patriarch's authority. Do you dare to come out? Do you dare?"

The Gold Spirit God roared in anger, once again challenging the Human world.

The Five Elements Command Token had been obtained by Zun, evidently brought out by Xiao Mu. This caused the Gold Spirit God's hatred to surge upon seeing Xiao Mu, while also exposing his deep-seated fear.

The patriarch was dead; the authority had been stripped away. Wouldn't this mean the collapse of the Five Elements Sect?

This person was simultaneously enraged and heartbroken.

If it weren't for Senior Zhou forbidding it, I would immediately go out and kill you!

Xiao Mu remained indifferent to this individual.

Moreover, the Gold Spirit God was not truly challenging Xiao Mu to a duel. He was inciting Heavenly Court members to collectively hunt Xiao Mu down, cultivating animosity against him.

Clearly understanding the Gold Spirit God's intentions, Xiao Mu remained disinterested in engaging with him.

"Stand down!"

The elder overseeing the array operation in the Heavenly Court suddenly shouted angrily at the Gold Spirit God.

The Gold Spirit God's actions had caused embarrassment for the Heavenly Court.

If you want to challenge, just challenge. But what kind of nonsense are you spouting, demanding someone come out? For what purpose?

If you dared to say, "Come out and face me one-on-one," it would be tolerable. But you don't even dare to do that. What meaning does such a challenge have, other than bringing disgrace?

"Yes!"

The Gold Spirit God's aged face turned dark as he retreated sullenly into the ranks.

"Proceed with array entry!"

The gray-bearded elder managing the array operations in Heavenly Court continued to command the array entry for the Mutated Beings.

At the same time, guided by Yu Tong's warning, he became vigilant, realizing that the Human world was using the Teleportation Mirror to infiltrate the array.

Swish, swish, swish! Swish, swish, swish...

Under the direction of the gray-bearded elder, the Mutated Beings in the Heavenly Court remained composed, entering the array in an orderly manner.

"Wang Wenxian, you're an Artifact Refiner. Gather people to find a way to break the Teleportation Mirror!"

The gray-bearded elder then summoned a man from the Heavenly Court ranks.

"Yes!"

From the crowd emerged Wang Wenxian, a tall and slender man dressed in leather armor.

The leather armor was a verdant green, radiating over a foot of green brilliance on its surface—clearly a protective treasure.

As Wang Wenxian stepped forward, he turned to address the Heavenly Court crowd, summoning several individuals, "Xu Zhi, He Qun, Wang Fei... among you, whoever possesses the method to counter the Teleportation Mirror, bring it forward immediately!"

Those he named were all Artifact Refiners and owned numerous treasures.

"I do!"

Soon, a man with a broken eyebrow stepped forward. His name was Wang Fei, an Artifact Refiner renowned for his collection of treasures.

"Set it up immediately. Break the Teleportation Mirror to prevent the Human world from sending more people into the array!" Wang Wenxian ordered.

"Understood!"

Wang Fei responded and began retrieving crimson Command Tokens from his belongings. One by one, he threw them toward the vicinity of the gray-black channel.

The area around the gray-black channel grew hazy as the crimson Command Tokens were thrown.

Next, Wang Fei switched to transmitting messages to powerful True God Realm guards stationed near the array.

At the Human world's hideout, Xu Lang continued persuading rogue Mutants. "Everyone, just now, I successfully sent another ally through the channel. Though there were some challenges, it ultimately turned out fine."

"From the earlier situation, you should all have realized that when using the Teleportation Mirror to send people into the array, only True Gods can detect traces."

"And as for the Heavenly Court's True Gods, you don't need to worry because we in the Human world also have our own True Gods protecting us."

"Now, is there anyone else who wants to join? Please step forward, and I will personally send you through the channel immediately."

The rogue Mutants hesitated, glancing at each other. While some were tempted, none ultimately stepped forward.

The earlier events had shaken them. Yu Tong had made his move. Although it ended safely, with Zun stepping in to stop Yu Tong and saving the green-clad woman, who could guarantee they wouldn't face another Heavenly Court True God if they forcibly entered?

Would Zun step in timely to save them, as he had done for the green-clad woman?

Thus, most of them adopted a wait-and-see approach, deciding to let others go ahead first.

Xiao Mu, staying quietly on the sidelines, showed no inclination to intervene. Since the Zhou Xuanmen had not issued an order for him to enter, he felt it wasn't yet time for him to storm the array, so he simply stood motionless.

As for Chen Ming and Gu Mei, they looked on smugly, silently mocking Xu Lang without stepping forward themselves.

After calling out several times without any responses, Xu Lang's face clouded over. The expressions on the faces of Chen Ming and Gu Mei further stoked his simmering frustration.

"Haha, are you all scared now? Listen, there's really no need to worry. My Teleportation Mirror leaves no traces visible to anyone other than True Gods."

"Fine, I understand you're apprehensive. Let me demonstrate once more, sending someone into the array to boost your confidence. Cao Zhe, step forward."

With that, Xu Lang called upon a man. The man appeared unassuming, around thirty, and was a loyal follower of his.

"Understood!"

Cao Zhe stepped forward and approached Xu Lang.

"Everyone, watch closely. Cao Zhe, I can easily send him into the array, and those in the Heavenly Court won't be able to harm him in the slightest!"

As Xu Lang boasted, he brought out the Teleportation Mirror, aimed it at Cao Zhe, and flicked it toward him.

Wrapped in the shimmering light from the mirror, Cao Zhe began advancing toward the gray-black channel.

Xu Lang smiled confidently, full of faith in his Teleportation Mirror.

The Teleportation Mirror, a treasured artifact—while its transmissions might be detected by True Gods, ordinary Divine Spirits wouldn't stand a chance.

Engulfed in the mirror's light, Cao Zhe's figure blurred as he sped toward the vicinity of the gray-black channel.

With a soft sound, Cao Zhe collided with the hazy brilliance surrounding the gray-black channel.

Then, following the faint sound, Cao Zhe's figure abruptly became visible, exposed to the Heavenly Court guards.

"Seeking death!"

The Heavenly Court guards stationed around the gray-black channel erupted in angry shouts simultaneously.

This time, four guards attacked at once—a battle axe, a saber, a hammer, and a sword—all ascending in a thunderous roar before surging forward to strike the revealed Cao Zhe.

Slash! Crash! Blunt! Boom!

The axe, saber, hammer, and sword simultaneously struck Cao Zhe.

Blood exploded. Cao Zhe couldn't even cry out before being dismembered into pieces. His flesh splattered and was instantly vaporized, utterly vanishing from Heaven and Earth.
