The Grand Elder with already greying hair listened to the voices of opposition around him, his brows furrowed instantly, and a trace of anger appeared on his face as he shouted loudly: "At this time, are you still only thinking about yourselves?

If we truly allow the Sky Clan to invade our Eastern Province, everyone will be doomed, not to mention thinking about the future!"

"Grand Elder, that’s not what we meant. Naturally, we will exert ourselves, and even sacrifice for our Great Teaching and for the Human Clan, but we cannot help but consider the consequences.

If we repel the Sky Clan’s attack, what then? If we empty out all our resources, what will we do the next time our Great Teaching faces Sect Tribulation?

If we cannot withstand the Sect Tribulation then, all of us in the entire Great Teaching would perish, and our Great Teaching would cease to exist, and at that time, all of us would be the sinners of our Great Teaching."

"Yes, we cannot just consider the present."

The Grand Elder, upon hearing this, fell silent immediately.

At this time, the voice of the Sect Leader sounded: "Alright, everyone has valid points. This time we must exert ourselves, but we also need to consider the future.

So, for the resources proposed by the Grand Elder, we’ll take half of them. Alright, many other great teachings have probably arrived, and we should set off too."

Cao Zhen arrived at the border between the Eastern Province and the Central Continent, and found that many cultivators had already gathered here.

And this group, because the Extreme Formation Sect sent many personnel, was extremely conspicuous, immediately attracting the attention of the cultivators gathered here.

"These are people from the Extreme Formation Sect."

"Naturally, formations wouldn’t be without people from the Extreme Formation Sect, but why have they sent so many people?"

"This... it seems that all the experts from the Extreme Formation Sect have been sent out!"

"In fact, this is also a kind of cultivation for people from the Extreme Formation Sect."

"Over there, isn’t that Sect Leader Cao from the Hundred Peaks Sect?"

Many people, upon seeing Cao Zhen, stepped forward.

These days, although Cao Zhen mostly spent his time on the True Immortal Realm battlefield, and not always with his own face.

The Hundred Peaks Sect held grand ceremonies for several disciples, where many great teachings from Eastern Province attended to offer congratulations, and they all saw him, knowing his appearance.

For common sect leaders, people might not be so enthusiastic, but Cao Zhen is the reincarnation of a Daluo Golden Immortal, and not long ago, many people witnessed Immortal Lord Jue Zhen achieving Perfect Completion of True Immortal Realm.

Moreover, where Immortal Lord Jue Zhen and Extreme Formation’s Immortal Lord completed their breakthroughs through enlightenment was near the Hundred Peaks Sect, and now that the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader came with people from the Extreme Formation Sect, it’s evidently linked with Sect Leader Cao.

Who wouldn’t want to become familiar and build relations with someone who can enable a Peak True Immortal Realm epiphany, allow someone half-step to Golden Immortal to achieve Golden Immortal through enlightenment! Hoping that at any moment, Sect Leader Cao might provide guidance, allowing them to epiphany and advance further, directly breaking through!

Alongside Cao Zhen, many came to congratulate Immortal Lord Jue Zhen.

Nowadays, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen has achieved True Immortal Realm Great Perfection, making him the most top-tier existence below Golden Immortal Realm.

Moreover, Immortal Lord Jue Zhen is close to the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader, and it shouldn’t be a big issue for him to advance to half-step Golden Immortal in the future.

Looking at the increasing number of experts from various teachings around, Cao Zhen couldn’t help but feel a bit troubled, as there were too many people.

Thankfully, in the void, strong auras began to be felt.

The gathered were mostly True Immortal Realm experts, and few Immortality Regainment Realm experts. Yet, as these auras arrived, an inexplicable sense of oppression pervaded everyone, causing them to look back involuntarily.

"Sword Lord San Cai."

"Huan Kong Devil Lord."

Including the newly ascended Golden Immortal Realm Zong Zhen Immortal Lord, the six Golden Immortal Realm experts of Eastern Province flew in together. Even without targeting anyone with their aura, the crowd felt increasing pressure, causing them to voluntarily step aside.

Behind Cao Zhen, the people from Extreme Formation Sect instantly focused their gaze on Zong Zhen Immortal Lord, their eyes filled with hatred, yet they neither acted nor provoked Zong Zhen Immortal Lord.

Everything, for the sake of the bigger picture!

"Hundred Peaks Sect Leader." Sword Lord San Cai slightly cupped his hands towards Cao Zhen opposite, looking at this young man full of vitality, his heart was filled with emotion.

Daluo Golden Immortal reincarnated!

With higher cultivation, one increasingly senses the weight of a Daluo Golden Immortal reincarnation!

Actually, upon knowing that the Hundred Peaks Sect Leader was a reincarnated Daluo Golden Immortal, they attempted several times to find Cao Zhen.

However, due to various reasons, they eventually gave up, making this their first encounter with Cao Zhen.

Cao Zhen slightly nodded, cupped his hands toward the counterpart: "San Cai Dao Companion."

Although meeting Sword Lord San Cai for the first time, Cao Zhen had a good impression of him, knowing him as a powerful figure dedicated to running for the Human Clan and eager to assist other cultivators.

Additionally, his disciple had connections with the female cultivator of San Cai Sword Lord’s great teaching, they might become in-laws at any time, so naturally, he intended to be polite.

Upon hearing the term ’Dao Companion’, Sword Lord San Cai’s face showed a trace of peculiar expression, acknowledging him as a Dao Companion by Hundred Peaks Sect Leader.
