At the same time, in the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm.

Wuyin Palace, built upon the Sacred Vein of the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, with the vein like the Dragon Dome, sprawling on the earth, as the Holy Light transformed into circles of golden rings reflecting in the void above.

Outside the mountain range, millions, tens of millions of Immortal Realm Soldiers are practicing the Soldier Array, with the light of swords and sabers accompanied by the metallic clang of weapons continually echoing....

Stern expressions are etched on their faces at every moment.

On the martial training field, a stout man with a bare torso stands, arms folded across his chest, his muscles like gold-cast, emitting a faint golden light, with black hair like a waterfall, and eyes full of majesty, giving an aura of commanding presence.

"I know every one of you carries your own pride, you have overcome numerous trials to become part of the Wuyin Third Vanguard Team."

"War can break out at any moment, and each of you should unhesitatingly forge a path of iron and blood with your flesh, opening a trail of blood for the soldiers behind."

"Do you think it's hard?"

The stout man with black hair casts his gaze over the soldiers below, his voice like thunder, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

"Not hard!"

The Immortal Realm Soldiers in the martial training field replied resolutely, their voices rolling like waves stretching to the horizon.

"Are you willing to die for the Lord?"

The black-haired man asked again.

"Fearless and relentless, we are not afraid!"

The Immortal Realm Soldiers shouted in unison, without a hint of hesitation in their voices, only resolute determination.

"We, in the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, are part of the Lord's ranks, and we should always be prepared for battle, unhesitant if the front line needs us."

"So, we must never slack off at any moment!"

"I know many of you come from the Lower-Rank Immortal Realm, or even from lower worlds; without the Lord, you wouldn't have reached this step."

"And our objective is certainly not limited to the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm; it's to follow the Lord in conquest of higher and more expansive worlds."

The stout man's voice like bells and drums instantly ignited the hearts of these Immortal Realm Soldiers, their expressions excited, morale high.

The stout man's name was Zhao Kuo, a Realm Master of the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, and the right-hand man of Domain Master Xiao Sheng.

However, the "Lord" he referred to was not Xiao Sheng, nor the bosses above Xiao Sheng, but Su Mu!

As Su Mu's subordinates seized realms, cultivators, and such while fighting across the Ten Thousand Realms, they would make them follow the Master, who was the highest authority.

Although these cultivators had never seen the "Lord," their loyalty to the Lord was unwavering.

At this moment, upon receiving a transmission, Zhao Kuo's expression changed drastically.

He said to a general at the front of the soldiers in the martial field: "Fu Yu, come up here."

The next second, after the general stepped up, Zhao Kuo instructed: "I have some urgent matters to attend to, you lead everyone to continue the training."

"Yes!" Fu Yu replied.

...

Soon, Zhao Kuo vanished from the original spot.

He then appeared beneath the Dragon Dome Mountain Range, and hurried towards the Wuyin Palace situated above the mountain range.

Zhao Kuo sensed the movement of the other six Realm Masters, who were also converging towards the Wuyin Palace from different directions, seemingly indicating...the Domain Master has a significant announcement to make, otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to summon all the Realm Masters simultaneously.

An instant later, a middle-aged man in a Daoist robe, with an extraordinary aura, approached Zhao Kuo on a floating Immortal Cloud.

As he drew near, the middle-aged man clasped his fists and said to Zhao Kuo: "Realm Master, did you summon me?"

"Conceal your aura."

"Follow me."

Zhao Kuo nodded and continued towards the Wuyin Palace, the residence of the Domain Master, where no one, including the Realm Masters, could use Spiritual Power casually.

After walking a while, the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask: "Realm Master, for what important matter does the Domain Master summon us in such a hurry?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kuo first remained silent for a while, without answering, he asked instead: "Han Xiaopao, how long have you been in the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm?"

After pondering for a moment, Han Xiaopao smiled and said: "I've forgotten how long I've been here, but I remember following you, Realm Master, for forty-six thousand years."

His response was impeccable, greatly satisfying Zhao Kuo.

"Xiaopao, you've been by my side for so long, I've considered you a confidant."

"This time, the Domain Master summoned us, probably due to impending war."

"You should understand that we're all followers of the Lord, and Domain Master Xiao is just a general under the Lord, thus...you must choose wisely, stand in the correct position."

At these words, Han Xiaopao thought for a moment before slowly responding: "No matter what, I'm brought up by you, Realm Master, and I've always stood by your side."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kuo glared at him and said:

"Nonsense!"

"I don't want to hear such clever-sounding words again."

After saying this, Zhao Kuo paused, continuing:

"Xiaopao, you've misunderstood me."

"What I meant was, you must always have clarity, the one you pursue, the one you heed, is not me, nor is it Domain Master Xiao, but the Lord, this you must discern."

"Do not harbor other thoughts."

"You should also remember the fate of the Ancient Realm Master, right?"

Upon hearing this, Han Xiaopao hesitated for a moment before solemnly nodding.

"Ancient Realm Master became too clever for his own good, betrayed the Lord, and fled from the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, seeking independence."

"His final fate was.... to be annihilated."

"Gu Min forgot that he rose from a Little State Lord in the Lower-Rank Immortal Realm to a Realm Master, second to none in the Cyan Origin Immortal Realm, really believing it was all due to his efforts?"

"If not for the guidance and support of the Great Venerable and Three Venerables, and the Master carefully orchestrating plans behind the scenes, he would have spent his life as nothing more than a Little State Lord in the Lower-Rank Immortal Realm."

.....

Saying that Zhao Kuo stopped, looked at Han Xiaopao, and said word by word: "You are calm by nature, extraordinarily gifted, and have great potential for further advancement."

"You will undoubtedly go farther than me in the future."

"I already sense that responding to the Lord and waging war against higher Immortal Realms is imminent."

"Before that, let me remind you, unwaveringly following the Lord will be a tremendous blessing for you."

After hearing this, Han Xiaopao was stunned, his gaze becoming firm, and he clasped his fists, saying: "Thank you, Realm Master, for your guidance, I will not go astray."

Hearing this, Zhao Kuo heavily patted his shoulder and said: "Let's go, today is also the first time I'm taking you to a Realm Master meeting, speak less and listen more."

Han Xiaopao followed Zhao Kuo towards the Wuyin Palace.
