Returning Xuan Mo's salutation, Thunder turned to address everyone in the conference hall, "Since Leader Xuan acknowledges my proposal of luring out the Undying Evil Ancestor, I won't stand on ceremony."

"Among you, I plan to select a few to journey with me."

"After all, if the Undying Evil Ancestor truly appears, it is impossible to face him alone. He will most certainly have accomplices."

"I can handle the Undying Evil Ancestor. As for his accomplices, I'll need assistance."

The plump man immediately responded, "Chief, choose freely. Whoever you select will go."

There were also those who volunteered:

"Leader Lei, pick me, I'm willing to go with you on this journey."

"Leader Lei, choose me, choose me, I want to accompany you."

...

Many people eagerly volunteered, looking to accompany Thunder, whereas others kept their silence, awaiting Thunder's selection.

For most people, their hopes were set on participating in this mission.

This mission not only involves the emergence of City God Xu's hidden mansion, but also focuses on capturing the Undying Evil Ancestor.

Whichever part they partake in, it would be a significant achievement.

No one wanted to miss such an opportunity to make merit.

Xiao Mu sat quietly at the back, speculating Xuan Mo's intentions in his mind.

He did not look at Xuan Mo.

Once mutated beings step into the Yin God Realm, they develop a peculiar intuition that might sense even the slightest thought. Direct capitalisation would be even worse.

Xuan Mo was too cunning and short-tempered, possibly harboring deceit. This forced Xiao Mu to tread carefully.

"Quiet, quiet, let Leader Lei make his selection." Xuan Mo suddenly spoke, commanding everyone to cease their chatter.

The conference hall quieted down once more. Xuan Mo addressed Thunder, "Leader Lei, please make your selection."

"If that's the case, I will select my team."

Thunder smiled, his gaze sweeping over the crowd in the hall, "The companions joining me on this journey must hold significant strength. Anyone below Peak Fifth Realm need not participate."

Upon hearing this, many faces displayed disappointment.

Only those at the Peak Fifth Realm could participate, disqualifying the majority of the attendees in the hall.

Thunder's gaze settled on the middle-aged man, Jin Fang, "Jin Fang, you've been at the Peak Fifth Realm for years, even reaching the peak of Perfection. You're just one step away from the True Realm. Moreover, you cultivate the Yin Yang Dual Power,...

"Thank you, Leader Lei."

Jin Fang was overjoyed and rose to pay his respects to Thunder.

"Jiang Mu."

Thunder then looked at Jiang Mu, "As the leader of the Fixed Task Group, your strength surpasses the average man, yet you seldom undertake tasks. You should accompany me this time."

"This..."

Jiang Mu's complexion slightly changed, seemingly unwilling, but ultimately he obeyed, "I will follow your command, Leader Lei."

"Xiao Mu."

Last, Thunder's gaze fell on Xiao Mu.

"Awaiting your command, Chief."

Xiao Mu stood.

Thunder broke into a smile, "Have you broken through to the Peak Fifth Realm?"

Xiao Mu smiled faintly, "Chief, your perception is sharp. Indeed, I have ascended to Peak Stage."

Jiang Mu shuddered, his face paled, he turned to face Xiao Mu in disbelief.

He found it hard to believe that Xiao Mu had so quickly broken through to the Peak Fifth Realm, steadily progressing to catch up to him.

The remaining mutated beings were also stunned, turning their gaze towards Xiao Mu.

"He broke through to the Peak so quickly? Hasn't it been just a short while since he progressed to the latter stage?"

"How did he do it so quickly?"

"That's fast!"

...

Xiao Mu remained composed, clearly unaffected by the discussions around him.

Thunder noted, "You cultivate the Two Forces of Life and Death, which give you an unparalleled advantage when fighting the creatures of the Life and Death Sect. Even if you hadn't reached the Peak, I'd still have wanted you to accompany me. Since you'r...
