"Heavenly Court has dispatched a total of four True God level experts into the Creation Space to partake in the Life and Death Seal struggle, their strength far surpassing our side in the human world."

"I no longer hold any hope for victory in this battle."

Zhou Xuanmen addressed Zun and Divine Monarch Wu De, his tone tinged with desolation, "At this moment, my only concern is the safety of Xiao Mu."

"Xiao Mu is the seed of our human world. If he can grow, he might break through to the True God level and step into the Heavenly God level, joining the Human Emperor in guarding the human realm."

"Unfortunately, under the assault of four True God level experts from the Heavenly Court, it's uncertain whether he can preserve his life."

As Zhou Xuanmen spoke, his mood became increasingly grave.

Even though he knew early on that Xiao Mu's participation in the Life and Death Seal struggle would be dangerous, he did not stop Xiao Mu from entering.

After all, flowers in a greenhouse will never grow big.

Divine Monarch Wu De couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Didn't your headquarters in the human world also send people? That Xu Lang, Chen Ming, Gu Mei, didn't they bring quite a few experts, aren't they of any help?"

"Them?"

Zun sneered disdainfully, "Rather than relying on them, it might be better to hope for foolish mistakes from the Heavenly Court people. Fellow Daoist, you might not know, these people didn't come for the Life and Death Seal struggle but for earning merits."

"By earning merits, they obtain rewards from headquarters. Therefore, their primary task upon entering the Creation Space is bound to be hunting down Heavenly Court Variants to earn merit."

"Once they have merit, they return and receive rewards."

"As for the Life and Death Seal, not to mention their lack of ability to contend for it, even if they could, what direct benefit does it bring them? A bit of reward for vying for the Life and Death Seal perhaps? Fellow Daoist, since you are not part of the Alliance, you might not know the situation; some people are selfish and willing to kill!"

"Heh heh!"

Upon hearing this, Divine Monarch Wu De sneered inwardly disdainfully, is this what your human world is like?

Seeing this, Zun realized his misspeak and promptly remedied, "Do not misunderstand, fellow Daoist, people like that in the human world are a minority, most people still consider the big picture first."

"Ha ha!"

Divine Monarch Wu De chuckled once more, this time with less contempt and more respect, "The Eastern Region is under Bai Jing's rule. Bai Jing, this individual, is deeply entangled with the Heavenly Emperor. The Heavenly Court, with the Heavenly Emperor fallen and Emperor Taija in charge, is sure to worry about the Heavenly Emperor's rebirth."

"And to prevent the Heavenly Emperor's rebirth, first is to utterly eliminate Bai Jing. To completely kill Bai Jing requires the slaughter of all living beings in the Eastern Region."

"With my knowledge of the Heavenly Court and Emperor Taija, nowadays, the Heavenly Court might be plotting how to thoroughly massacre human beings."

"The struggle for the Life and Death Seal is just a pretext, what the Heavenly Court likely seeks is twofold, firstly, the authority of life and death that the Life and Death Seal wields. Controlling the authority of life and death equals controlling all rebirth opportunities."

"To sever the opportunity for the Heavenly Emperor and Bai Jing's rebirth, Taija unquestionably needs to grasp the power of life and death."

"Secondly, the authority of life and death is immensely powerful; back then, the Undying relied on it and even matched Bai Jing in battle. Bai Jing, as the foremost True God."

"Meng Xuantong and others vying for the Life and Death Seal likely also hope that after attaining it, they can cultivate another powerful True God to assist in annihilating the human realm."

"Fellow Daoists Zhou and Mei, I am not alarming you needlessly, your human world faces grave danger now. The battle for the Life and Death Seal may concern the life and death of every one of you. It is best to grasp the Life and Death Seal from the Heavenly Court and hold it within your own control."

Zhou Xuanmen and Zun, hearing these words, involuntarily became grave-faced.

What Divine Monarch Wu De said was clearly not mere intimidation but a real possibility.

A cloud of dual colors black and white suddenly swept across the sky above Xiao Mu's head, and the person on the cloud turned out to be Li Jiesheng.

Li Jiesheng looked down at Xiao Mu, who was running below, and suddenly flashed black and white lights from himself.

These black and white lights emerged and immediately folded back, enveloping Li Jiesheng within them. Then, the black and white lights gradually faded away, vanishing from sight in mid-air.

Meanwhile, Xiao Mu running on the ground, remained unaware that Li Jiesheng had arrived in the Creation Space too, and had even cultivated the art of Riding Clouds and Mist, spotting him from high above, as he continued fleeing below.

He must quickly find a secluded area to repair the flagpole of the Blood Cloud Flag.

"Old Giant, is that you! Looks like you're not in good shape, are you injured?"

"Same to you, Old Feng, is your condition any better? Aren't you injured just like me?"

Near the Sea of Blood, the gigantic figure of Huge Mountain had confronted Feng Jia's ancient coffin.

Huge Mountain, his enormous body, at this moment, had no less than hundreds of bloodstains on it, and his face carried fatigue.

Among them, dozens of wounds were contaminated with evil aura, continuously oozing black blood, unable to heal for the time being.

Similarly, Feng Jia's situation wasn't much better.

The ancient coffin he was in was constantly seeping black blood, slowly yet seemingly unstoppable.

Earlier, both had entered the Sea of Blood and faced attacks from evil spirits, though they survived, they were both heavily injured.

"Evil spirits are indeed troublesome."

Feng Jia, a cold, hard voice echoed from within the ancient coffin, "Old Giant, let's stop mocking each other and cooperate, or entering the Sea of Blood alone, neither you nor I will have peace while absorbing blood ability."
