"Let's go, I'm going to take you to meet Leader Lei first."

Holding the magic treasure, Lan Cai eagerly took Xiao Mu to the office of Lei. She was impatient to return to comprehend the Destruction Spear, unwilling to waste any more time.

Cultivating the magic treasure would make it easier for her to enter the True Realm.

For Lan Cai, who is already at the Peak Perfected Fifth Realm, she might step into the True Realm quickly after cultivating the magic treasure.

Soon, the two arrived outside Lei's office.

After knocking on the door, Lei invited them in.

"Leader Lei, Xiao Mu is here. You can speak to him about anything. I have other matters to attend to, so I won't stay with you," Lan Cai eagerly said before bidding Lei farewell and leaving.

As Lan Cai left, Lei beckoned Xiao Mu to sit down and warmly said, "Xiao Mu, the main reason I invited you here is to inform you about the matters that need attention when executing specific tasks."

Xiao Mu listened intently.

Lei began, "Our Song Ruins were established on the ancient capital of the Song Dynasty. After the World Mutation, significant changes happened here."

"The mutation of the ancient tombs and the falling of divine traces occurred."

"Today, I am going to tell you about these falling divine traces."

"You have carried out the mission of the Immeasurable Cave, so you should have some understanding about divine traces."

Xiao Mu nodded, but there were still things he didn't understand.

Lei continued, "The Immeasurable Cave is one of the falling divine traces. According to the data compiled by the Alliance, it is the mansion of a certain City God named Xu."

"The mansion of City God Xu is regarded as the strongest among the divine spirit mansions we know in our Song Ruins."

"Of course, in addition to the mansion of City God Xu, our Song Ruins also have the Judge Mansion, Land God Mansion, Mountain God Mansion, etc."

"Our duty is to guard these divine spirit mansions, excavate the treasures inside the mansions, and resist the evil absurdities to prevent them from taking away the treasures in these mansions."

Xiao Mu nodded again. The content Lei told him was similar to what he had recently learned.

Lei added, "As for our enemies, in addition to zombies, evil ghosts, the Greenfin Clan, and extraterrestrial demons, the most terrible ones are the extraterrestrial evil beings."

"The so-called extraterrestrial evil beings are the creatures outside our world. They rule the outside from beyond the heavens, and zombies, evil ghosts, the Greenfin Clan, including demons are all manufactured by them."

Zombies, evil ghosts, the Greenfin Clan, and demons, are all created by extraterrestrial evil beings?

This news startled Xiao Mu.

The revelation was well beyond his expectations, which left him struggling to accept it temporarily.

How formidable are these extraterrestrial evil beings to be able to create such formidable entities like zombies, evil ghosts, the Greenfin Clan, and demons?

Lei supplemented, "Extraterrestrial evil beings, which are referred to as evil, are only so in our perspective. Beyond our world, they are divine beings, ruling over outer world creatures."

The words of Lei left Xiao Mu filled with astonishment, his heart filled with extreme shock.

If not for being transferred from fixed tasks to execute specific tasks, he would not have been exposed to these secrets.

Lei went on, "Extraterrestrial evil beings include all kinds of organizations, such as Life and Death Sect, Curse Gate, Parasitic Door, Five Elements Sect, Yin-Yang Sect ..."

"At present, the organization we have the most contact with in the Song Ruins is the Life and Death Sect."

"You have also encountered the evil beings of the Life and Death Sect."

Lei said, looking at Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu nodded; he had encountered the evil beings of the Life and Death Sect more than once, and the Alliance had recorded two instances which was impossible to deny.

Lei continued, "The ultimate goal of the Life and Death Sect's evil beings entering the Song Ruins is not very clear yet, which involves various divine spirit ruins of the Song Ruins, such as the Land God Temple, Mountain God Temple, Judge Mansion, and even the City God Mansion."

"Currently, we speculate that the purpose of the Life and Death Sect's evil beings entering the Song Ruins is to seize divine relics."

"More importantly, the rectangular jade tablet I inquired you about before is one of the divine relics that the evil beings of Life and Death Sect want to seize."

After finishing speaking, Lei gazed deeply at Xiao Mu once again.

The elongated jade tablet once belonged to City God Xu, and is of enormous significance, impacting whether Thunder can further advance to the realm of the City God and Netherlord.

Xiao Mu hurriedly interjected, "Leader Lei, I indeed have not seen any elongated jade tablet. There is no such item within the Immeasurable Cave."

"Don't be nervous."

Thunder waved his hand, "I was impetuous before. Looking back, it wouldn't be reasonable for the City God Temple to possess the elongated jade tablet. Even if they did, it would have been taken by the evil ghosts that have long inhabited the City God Mansion. There's no way it would have been left there."

Xiao Mu let out a sigh of relief.

As long as he wasn't suspected, that's enough. Otherwise, with the many secrets he held, if a Yin God level True Realm powerhouse continuously watched him, there might be an accident one day.

Thunder continued, "Our duty is to oversee extraterrestrial evil beings, preventing them from obtaining remnants of the divine spirits."

"These extraterrestrial evil beings are already overpoweringly strong. If they obtained the remnants of divine spirits, the consequences would be unimaginable. This could severely threaten the safety of the Song relics, and even the entire Earth."

Xiao Mu remained silent. Thunder wasn't exaggerating. Having encountered extraterrestrial evil beings, he was deeply aware of their strength.

Up until now, the creatures Xiao Mu had only encountered belonged to the Life and Death Sect. He hadn't made contact with the Five Elements Door, Parasitic Door, Curse Gate, or Yin-Yang Sect.

Thunder revealed, "The evil beings of the Life and Death Sect are the most troublesome. They cultivate the two forces of life and death, possessing immense vitality. Even if their heads are chopped off, their limbs severed, or even if only a piece of flesh or a drop of blood remains, they can rejuvenate."

"Our Song relics face a less than ideal situation in dealing with such formidable creatures."

Xiao Mu nodded in agreement. The creatures from the Life and Death Sect were indeed too powerful for ordinary mutated beings of the same level to handle.

Thunder suddenly showed curiosity, staring at Xiao Mu, "Xiao Mu, I am curious. You have encountered creatures from the Life and Death Sect twice, and both times you killed them. How exactly did you do that? Or rather, what aid do you possess that allowed you to kill them? Of course, if you don't want to disclose it, that's fine. I wouldn't force you. After all, everyone has their own secrets."

Thunder's tone was gentle, he was merely discussing with Xiao Mu, not insisting on a response.

Xiao Mu fell silent and pondered before making a decision.

Since he was already a part of the task group, it was inevitable that he would have to display his strength while executing tasks in the future. It was impossible for him to continue hiding it.

A Chaos True Seed Shock occurred inside him, and the two forces of life and death surged within him.

Thunder was taken aback, staring at Xiao Mu in disbelief, "Xiao Mu...you...you have cultivated the two forces of life and death?"

The two forces of life and death are difficult to cultivate, being the most potent forces beneath the pinnacle powers.

The creatures of the Life and Death Sect could cultivate them because they came from an extraterrestrial world and had the backing of a powerful sect.

However, on Earth, the difficulty of cultivating these forces was amplified a hundredfold or even thousandfold. There might not even be one successful cultivator among a hundred million people.

The primary reason is the difficulty of attaining the two forces of life and death; a typical Fourth Realm Mutated Being has a slim chance of obtaining them before breaking through to the Fifth Realm.

"It's not just that, I've also cultivated secret arts related to the two forces of life and death."

Xiao Mu responded, a figure appearing over his head—an illusion of a divine being—and the secret arts of the Life and Death Judge surged with unreleased energy.

Thunder gazed at Xiao Mu for a long moment, speechless.

After a long pause, Thunder finally sighed, "No wonder you were able to defeat the creatures of the Life and Death Sect. One must use the two forces of life and death to counteract them."

"For anyone else who encounters creatures from the Life and Death Sect, they would be utterly dominated."

Xiao Mu nodded in agreement. Thunder's words were not false.

The creatures from the Life and Death Sect were virtually indestructible, leaving typical mutated beings dumbfounded when faced with them.

There was a hint of envy in Thunder's eyes.

Although Mutated beings could cultivate various forces after entering the True Realm, including the two forces of life and death, certain conditions were required.

"You should try your best to improve your strength ASAP. The forces of life and death that you're cultivating will be of great help in our future missions."

The smile on Thunder's face softened, and he amiably patted Xiao Mu's shoulder, insinuating that he had high hopes for him. "Your realm is quite low at the moment and can't offer much help. It would be great if you could break through to the True Stage."

"Try to make that breakthrough as soon as possible. If you need any support, just let me know. I'll try my best to assist you. Of course, I won't just help you for nothing. You also have to contribute to the relics. Recently, the creatures from Life and Death Sect have been increasingly active. It seems they are planning something big, and a major battle might not be far away."

Thunder's words startled Xiao Mu, making him feel a sense of urgency.
