Since the group had absorbed all the Qi from the crystals in 23 hours, they now had exactly 25 hours left before being forced to leave the secret world. First, the group moved towards the other sealed inner world.
Upon arrival, they contacted the wasp King and Queen, who had just eliminated all the members of the Shadow God sect in that place.
The whale would give them a final farewell treasure. Ruri would open the portal to the central sealed world and hand them the golden tablet; the demon who obtained this tablet could manipulate it and travel between worlds easily, and these wasps would be able to do the same without issues.
This took less than an hour. Then, everyone moved to the border between the worlds. Upon arrival, the whale’s group took a deep breath, preparing for a tough battle. The disciples on the other side weren’t weak opponents; they were the most outstanding disciples of the fourth largest sect in the universe, definitely not easy to crush.
Those who had been with the whale for a long time just kept cold expressions. The newcomers, despite everything, were experienced cultivators who had lived for thousands of years; they knew how to stay calm and focused. But the three young Feys clearly started to radiate a bloody aura.
Ruri looked at them and felt a pang of bitterness. That was the aura of someone who had killed a lot and let it affect their state of mind. Clearly, they were nervous but eager to fight and kill.
Alm and Bruno snorted, and the whale turned to the three. They felt the gaze and sensed a subtle disappointment coming from them.

"S-Sir... did we do something wrong?" Kisala asked a little scared.
"I think you still feel a lot of pressure in battle. Your wills are in the wrong place, and that can negatively affect you in a tough moment." Alm said with a sigh. "Maybe..."
The three’s eyes widened, already sensing his orders. Immediately Ambry spoke in clear desperation, "We’ll work hard! Please, let us accompany you in this fight. We won’t be a burden."
All three had felt enormous pressure since joining the group. They didn’t want to fall behind and disappoint him, so they gave everything they had to create the manifestation. Now, when they finally thought they were on par with the others, they realized their worst fear coming true; they would be left behind.
Bruno spoke calmly, "It’s that you still don’t understand the meaning of battle. Why do we fight? Fighting isn’t to establish fame, eliminate people; and definitely not to kill. The goal of everyone by my side is to fight to protect."
They widened their eyes and trembled. Only now did they realize what had been going through their minds just seconds ago. Bruno continued,
"You’ve been affected by the evil of the enemies and chose to kill them all without a second thought. But I’ve told you this before, that’s not the way. My Dao is the weapons in my hands and the people behind me that I must protect. You should never fight against an enemy; you should fight with the enemy; the goal is to prevent them from causing harm, without ever sowing or letting ourselves be infected by hatred. That doesn’t mean we should be kind, that kindness can only be given to good people. If given to evil, they will take advantage and destroy us."
The three young Feys, the wasp King and Queen, and even the other members of the group who were listening, took a deep breath. The whale’s words resonated in their minds; it was as if they were enlightened. These were words that only someone who had lived their whole life immersed in extreme hatred, killed, killed, and never felt satisfied could say.
The eyes of those three young Feys trembled, and the whale saw this and continued gently, "You don’t need to feel guilty. If we want to protect our family in this bloody and chaotic world, then we have to show our fangs. In the face of these evil people, we have to wield our butcher’s knife without hesitation. Our world is full of disorder, and trying to discuss things reasonably can lead to disaster. But remember: there are no real enemies, it’s just a temporary situation, and eventually, those who did wrong will wake up. The true enemy controlling everything is the one who caused this…"
The best example was themselves; unfortunately, there wasn’t anyone capable of stopping them while they did what they did. But even a villain capable of destroying an entire universe can see what they did and try to start over.
Others just need to be stopped, and karma and the laws of the world will teach them what they did. However, if those who stopped them let themselves be infected by hatred, it will distort them over time and their values will be lost.
Everyone in the group felt a certain hatred towards the disciples of the Shadow God sect, but now something changed within them. Why let these enemies affect them? They just needed to kill them, and karma itself would teach them. After a few seconds, Alm took charge and spoke loudly to his group.
"Remember, no one is innocent on a battlefield. Anyone who raises their own butcher’s knife against you is someone you have to kill. Some might claim innocence and not know the true story behind the scenes, maybe they were deceived and are being used, but those are not reasons. Everyone has their own free will, and they chose to close their eyes. As long as someone dares to raise their blade, no matter the reason, they have to be killed without mercy. A person has to pay the price for their own mistakes and foolishness, because their foolishness will only bring endless pain to the truly innocent. Once the battle begins, they only have one identity: they are all enemies. Let me repeat again: as long as they are our enemies, they must be killed. But they will die because we have to stop them; understood?"
"Understood!" Everyone responded together, even the wasps were affected and responded.
"Great, let’s go. Time is short."
The whale spoke without emotion, and saw the entire aura of the three young Feys change to something sharp, but without any hatred. They must have learned the right path now.
Ruri opened the spatial channel to the central area. Then she waved, and the golden tablet floated into the Wasp Queen’s hands. Now, the wasps could dominate all areas of the secret world; when the day passed, they would also go to the central area. But they were obviously warned not to go to the northern and southern outer worlds that belonged to the two smaller sects.
***
Inside the only central secret world, suddenly all the disciples of the Shadow God sect felt the ground start to tremble.
Powerful auras appeared in the distance in the skies, slowly approaching. At the same time, a suffocating and deadly sensation fell over their heads, leaving them stunned. They had arrived.
