Elder Zun continued, "By taking the incense burner, you are essentially cutting off the True God of the Five Elements' opportunity to receive incense fire from the human world. Tell me, wouldn't he hate you for that? Wouldn't he want to kill you?"

Xiao Mu fell silent. If that was indeed the case, the rest of his journey would undoubtedly become very dangerous. He could be targeted at any moment and even face the possibility of death at any time.

Elder Zun added, "Now, even the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings might know about you. No matter where you go, you are likely to be targeted."

"That's why I advise you not to participate in this team mission, and to just stay at the Great Tang Ruins. After all, no one blames you. Both Wu Jie and Wu Yan have also advised you not to go."

Xiao Mu began to think.

According to Elder Zun's analysis, the situation did indeed look grim; it would be best not to leave the Great Tang Ruins.

But thinking of the Energy Points, and the Energy Fruit, and the upcoming journey to the 'Netherworld,' Xiao Mu hesitated again.

After a moment, he steadied his heart and made his decision once more, "Thank you for telling me all this, Elder Zun. From today on, I will be extra careful. However, I'm afraid I must go on this team mission."

"Ah!"

Elder Zun looked at Xiao Mu with a sense of pity, "I don't understand why you insist on taking part in this mission, but since you are determined to go, I won't advise you further."

"However, Xiao Mu, I must warn you in advance that even if the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings don't target you, the danger level of this team mission alone will exceed your imagination."

Xiao Mu was puzzled and asked, "Elder Zun, is this team mission really that dangerous? Why do you say that?"

Elder Zun's expression was extremely grave, "You are unaware that recently, the Boundary Wall of the Kunlun Mountain Domain and the East Sea Domain has suddenly loosened, and some major beings are trying to enter from the outside world."

Xiao Mu was taken aback, "The Boundary Wall of the Kunlun Mountain Domain and East Sea Domain has loosened? Major beings are trying to enter? What kind of major beings?"

Elder Zun spoke solemnly, "The identity of the major beings is currently unknown, but they're definitely True God Realm powerhouses, and there may also be Divine Spirits from beyond."

"True God Realm powerhouses? Divine Spirits from beyond?"

Xiao Mu froze, feeling a sudden heaviness in his heart, and even a sense of oppression.

True God Realm powerhouses and Divine Spirits from beyond are all terrifyingly powerful beings.

Xiao Mu even doubted whether there were any Mutated Beings on Earth powerful enough to resist a True God Realm powerhouse.

If there weren't, once a True God Realm powerhouse entered Earth, a horrific calamity would inevitably be unleashed upon the planet.

Elder Zun spoke gravely, "Do you think the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings are stirring up trouble for no good reason? Just because they're full and bored?"

"The sudden movements of the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings and the loosening of the Boundary Wall are no coincidence; they are likely coordinated to facilitate the infiltration of the True God Realm powerhouses and the Divine Spirits from beyond."

Xiao Mu's expression tensed, "Elder Zun, are you saying that the reason for the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings' movements is simply to create an opportunity for the True God Realm powerhouses and the Divine Spirits from beyond to infiltrate?"

Elder Zun nodded seriously, "It's highly possible, though at the moment, it's just speculation. The actual situation still needs to be verified."

"However, Xiao Mu, aside from what I've mentioned, I have to tell you that this team operation might have to rely solely on yourselves."

"You won't have any support, and even if the entire team is wiped out, outside support would be hard to come by."

Xiao Mu's complexion changed. What Elder Zun was saying was terrifying, and he asked urgently, "What about the Alliance? The Headquarters? Can they not provide support?"

Elder Zun shook his head, "They cannot. Including myself, I have to rush to the East Sea to guard the Boundary Wall due to its loosening."

"You're going to the East Sea Boundary Wall?" Xiao Mu was startled, suddenly feeling anxious and his mood becoming oppressive and heavy.

Elder Zun nodded, his tone resolute, "I am a Divine Realm Mutated Being, holding the office of a City God, with strength that ranks in the forefront of the entire Alliance. Now that the Boundary Wall has loosened, if not me, then who?"

"If you are willing to participate in this team mission, then go ahead. But before you do, you need to be mentally prepared. For this mission, no one can provide you support, and you all at the Great Tang Ruins must rely solely on yourselves."

Xiao Mu frowned deeply, feeling the heaviness of his mood, and pressed further, "What about the Ruins of Shang Dynasty? The Qin and Han Ruins? The Alliance Headquarters? Can none of the other Ruins provide us with support?"

Elder Zun's tone was heavy, "All the Ruins face the threat of the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings, and in fact, there are movements of Extraterrestrial Evil Beings at all of the Ruins, not just the Great Tang Ruins."

Xiao Mu was shocked again, "Movements of Extraterrestrial Evil Beings at all the Ruins?"

This was terrifying, no wonder Elder Zun said that no one could provide support to the Great Tang Ruins.

Elder Zun spoke gravely, "Do you understand now why I say the movements of the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings are to facilitate the infiltration of the True God Realm powerhouses?"

"I understand now!"

Xiao Mu nodded solemnly.

He finally understood why Elder Zun had said that the abnormal actions of the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings were to facilitate the infiltration of the True God Realm powerhouses.

If it were not to facilitate the infiltration of True God Realm powerhouses, why else would the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings on Earth choose this moment to suddenly engage in abnormal activities?

Elder Zun said, "Have you thought it through? Do you still want to participate in the mission?"

After a brief contemplation, Xiao Mu replied with determination, "Elder Zun, I have thought it through. The more it is so, the more I should participate in this mission."

Elder Zun was surprised by the response, asking, "Why?"

Xiao Mu rarely showed a bitter smile, "According to you, Elder Zun, it seems that the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings have now staked both their fate and that of the Great Tang Ruins on this conflict. The loser will die."
