With his hands behind his back and an angry expression on his face, Clyde muttered to himself, "Do they think we can''t survive without the four major sects?"


    Annoyed by the noise, Abner frowned and shouted, "Everyone, be quiet!"


    Clyde and Roscoe exchanged a cold nce but obediently shut their mouths.


    The Sky de Sect had six Profound Oriental Realm cultivators and was quite a formidable presence even among top-tier sects. However, due to their fewer members andck of a peak stage Profound Oriental Realm powerhouse, they could not rank among the top-tier sects. Nevertheless, the Sky de Sect stood at the pinnacle of second-tier sects. Among the Six Great Sects, the Sky de Sect was the lead, and Abner''s words still held considerable sway.


    "What do we do now?" Citrine asked solemnly.


    After a moment of silence, Roscoe said lightly, "Let''s follow him and see."


    Dawn came, and Nash finally found the Divine Strategy Squadron members. This area was lush with mountains and abundant in spiritual energy. The air was also exceptionally fresh. Das and his group were sitting around a fire, drying their clothes.


    The Chaos Towernded on the mountain peak, and everyone immediately stood up and looked. Several streaks of light shot out from the windows of the Chaos Tower andnded in front of them.


    Das sped his hands and asked, "Is everyone alright?"


    Dante shook his head with a bitter smile. "If Commander Calcraft hadn''t arrived in time, we might not have made it back!"


    Das immediately realized that he had underestimated the strength of the Western cultivators. He sighed heavily and admitted, "It''s my fault. I shouldn''t have let you go in the first ce."


    As the vicemander of the Divine Strategy Strategy, Das felt responsible. While the reclusive sects had little experience in battle, he often assigned members of the Divine Strategy Strategy to carry out missions.


    He understood better than anyone else the importance of gathering urate intelligence before engaging inbat.


    "Are any of you injured?" Nash did not dwell on assigning the me for what happened to anyone but instead expressed concern for those with weaker cultivation.


    "A small number of us suffered multiple fractures due to the swift currents, but with rest, they should recover in a few days," Das replied.


    Nash nced at the nearby mountains and smiled faintly. "This area is rich in cultivation resources. You can recuperate here. I''ll go into seclusion for a month. During this time, the Chaos Tower will remain open. "If any Western cultivators attack, you can seek refuge in the tower."


    Having gotten the Nirvana Fire and


    the Chaos Tower, Nash had lost interest in other treasures. Moreover, Ditto mentioned before that there was a treasure trove on the ninth floor of the Chaos Tower containing the wealth Ditto''s former master had umted over thousands of years.


    Suddenly, Dante asked, "Commander Calcraft, did you notice if someone was following us earlier?"


    While in the Chaos Tower, Dante sensed several powerful auras following them from a distance. He was worried they might be Western cultivators.


    Nash chuckled and replied, "They''re from the Six Great Sects." He then looked at the unfamiliar figures of Merrick and the two experts from the Unfettered Sect.


    Merrick cleared his throat awkwardly and lowered his head. "I''m Merrick Tanzia, the Great Elder of the Fiery me Sect. It''s a pleasure meeting you, Commander Calcraft." "I''m the second elder of the Fiery me Sect, Earl Cabot."


    "I''m the Great Elder of the Unfettered Sect, Bluster Sce."


    "And I''m the second elder, nka Sce."


    The two elders from the Unfettered Sect also sped their hands in salute. Strength established dignity Although they were many times older than Nash, thebat power Nash disyed made him even more powerful than their sect leaders, which automatically earned their respect.


    Nash returned the salute and replied, "Elders, there''s no need for such formality!"


    Hearing Nash call them ''elders'', they felt a burning sensation on their faces and lightness in their chest.All text ? N?velD(r)a''ma.Org.


    "Now that we''re numerous and powerful, there''s nothing to be afraid of should the four sectse to us for trouble," Bluster replied in a deep voice.


    Nash thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I don''t rmend internal conflict. Our enemies are the Western cultivators!"


    He had already dealt with the people from the Zen Heart Sect and the Misty Temr Court. He had been quite severe. If they came looking for revenge, he would handle it. However, Nash still hoped to reconcile with them.


    After all, should they go to war with the Western Cultivation world in the future, the four major sects would also be a formidable force. It was important to note that one Profound Oriental Realm cultivator alone could contend with more than 30 Mystique Loyalty Realm experts.
