The trio suddenly arrived at the Larimar Market on Gloom Planet, where they were greeted by Nebai. Before she could say anything, the whale interrupted her; they had no time to waste and needed to return to the sect immediately.
Sensing the urgency, Nebai quickly activated the formation, and the trio was taken directly to the center of the Yinblood Sect. As soon as they arrived, the whale took out his Sect Rector’s tablet and headed straight to the newly named Earth King Haven Forest.
A few minutes later, they were in an open area in the forest. The whale made a gesture, and a rune, completely cracked and about to explode at any moment, appeared from his inventory.
Ruri activated the formation, and suddenly, all the spatial laws on Gloom Planet stirred. Every cultivator on the planet felt a sudden shift in the spatial laws. Mistie moved with the High Elders; this had to be an enemy attack. But then, she received a message from Nebai about his return.
She knew it had to do with him and ordered all the elders to stay back, immediately rushing towards the forest alone. She didn’t hesitate to push her cultivation to the maximum to reach him. In just two seconds, she stopped, shocked. Before her eyes, the spatial laws were distorted.
These laws were on an extremely high level, something she had never experienced before. It felt like an attack capable of destroying the entire planet was building up. A cold sweat ran down her spine.
"What the hell…" she murmured, shocked, and prepared to move forward.
"Ma’am, my brother asked you to wait." Quirio approached Mistie and stopped her. She paused immediately, staring at him, but seeing the seriousness in his eyes, she took a deep breath and waited.
Minutes passed, and sounds of space breaking and accumulating echoed across the planet. After six hours, the energy stabilized. Then, multicolored runes completely covered the distortion.
It took an entire day, and Mistie, standing beside Quirio, widened her eyes when suddenly all the distortion and extreme spatial laws vanished.
Two hours later, Quirio spoke softly, "We can go, he’s waiting for you."
She seized the opportunity, took his hand, and, using her cultivation, ran hundreds of meters in a second. As she got closer, her heart started pounding, a strange premonition filling her.
She stopped, seeing the whale emerge from within the distortion; he waved for her to come closer. Mistie stepped forward and saw a large entrance appear.
He led her inside without saying a word. As she crossed, her body instinctively canceled the metamorphosis, and she reverted to her smaller form. Immediately, every pore on her body opened.
She found herself in a forest, surrounded by an overwhelming sense of grandeur. The trees towered like ancient titans, their vast trunks reaching unimaginable heights. The vegetation around her was a tapestry of vibrant and deep greens, a symphony of life where every leaf, every drop of dew, pulsed with a primal, wild force.
High-level spatial laws permeated the skies in an unbelievable way, but what impressed her most was the raw power emanating from the ground. It was as if the earth was alive, radiating a bestial energy, the sensation of a beast watching her.
The air was thick with intense Yang energy, an essence that seemed to infuse life into every fiber of her being. As she took a deep breath, she felt all the natural laws flowing around her like invisible currents.
It was a place where reason got lost in the vastness of the unknown. Mistie’s mind faltered, unable to comprehend how something so pure and incredibly sacred could exist in the world. It was as if she had entered an untouched ancient world, where every inch of the place hid something unique and terrifying.
"This will be the new training ground for the Yinblood Sect. Don’t be scared yet, you’re in the red zone, which is the lowest level," the whale’s voice sounded, snapping her out of her stupor. After a second, when she processed the information, her shock grew even more.
"Don’t worry. No one will discover this place; Ruri has already sealed it from the world. It’s also impossible to invade it by force," the whale added calmly.
He explained that this was a world that preceded the sealed worlds and that there were three areas equivalent to those worlds. Ruri didn’t maintain the restrictions but created safety barriers so that the dangers of one area wouldn’t invade another. But those from the sect could venture wherever they wanted if they had the courage.
This forest will be called Twelve Peaks Forest, and from now on, the people of the sect won’t need to go to the sealed worlds anymore. Once a year, the sect will authorize entry into the three areas, and cultivators can only stay there for a month. That way, they can harvest much more than they could in a week in each of the sealed worlds they had.
"Let me warn you, the dangers in this place could be much greater than in the sealed worlds. Everyone who enters without the right mindset will die, and even the strongest, only one in three will come out alive," the whale added, and in the next second, thousands of beasts appeared in the skies.
Mistie, still in disbelief, saw those beasts and felt their cultivations in shock. There were cultivators as powerful as her.
"These are the inhabitants of this place. There are three... or almost four beast races. They’ll be part of the Yinblood Sect, and the young ones will become disciples. Their status will be the same as the Golems’."
The whale introduced those three who were once kings and now were just leaders of their races. He also introduced a young Kun Peng. Since he was the only purebred of his race, and all the hybrids accepted him as their leader, he gained the same status.
Now, the Yinblood Sect, overnight, tripled the number of cultivators at the peak of the divine realm and gained thousands of talented disciples. If it weren’t for the hidden protection on Gloom Planet, just by their numbers, it would be possible to say that the Shadow God Sect could wipe out the Yinblood Sect without mutual destruction.
"No need to worry about our loyalty. We’ll do everything to protect his home, and we’ll die for him if that’s what it takes to keep him safe," the leader of the Zaori told Mistie, and the other three agreed. The message was clear: they were loyal to the whale. As long as he was okay, everything would be okay.
Ruri appeared and handed Mistie hundreds of spatial rings, all completely filled with countless crystals infused with a bloody power, brought from the depths of the Desolate Battlefield.
"Each crystal is something unique in the universe. Selling them should be enough for the sect to have resources for more than an entire generation. Completely cut off all contact with external cultivators on the planet and shut down the sect. No one can leave; everyone must focus on cultivation. Now we have resources and this forest to train in and get even more."
The whale spoke calmly, while Mistie seemed petrified, unable to respond. "I’m going to become a gray disciple of the sect now. I’ll be adding more things there too. I’ve got a lot of work to do, goodbye."
He turned and left, having already explained everything to the four race leaders. They would now handle the rest with Mistie.
As soon as they arrived, Ruri removed the old Void Forest and, with the help of the spatial laws of the races, perfectly connected it to the planet. Then, she constructed a formation, sealing it from the world with all the runes of the Formation God.

It was impossible for anyone outside to know it existed on the planet, and if they tried to force their way in, the multicolored runes would detonate, bringing everything down. The power of the Formation God gave Alm and Bruno the ability to keep these things hidden from the world, and if anything went wrong, they could destroy all evidence.
After the formation was completed, Alm and Bruno accepted the rewards for the optional mission. They earned 20 upgrade points and 10 celestial points.
They already had 20 celestial points saved up, and now, with 30, they could use the Miracle of Natural Life for the second time.
They hadn’t planned this, but millions of cultivators were turned into blood paste in the explosion, and the souls kept killing more and more. The soil of the entire forest was bathed in the blood of the universe’s greatest races. All were pure, and they were also cultivators at the peak of the divine realm, so their blood was a kind of sacred treasure. In other words, it was the best fertilizer possible.
With the Miracle of Natural Life... the results were terrifying, even for Alm and Bruno. The forest became something unbelievable. Before, all the dangers were plants, and they absorbed the power, multiplying everything in them more than a thousandfold. Every inch of the forest turned into something terrifying and supreme. There had been many treasures before, but now the things were incalculable.
On the twelve divine mountains, due to the immortal cultivators who had died there, a horrifying mutation occurred. Terrifying crystals started appearing in the soil near the mountains, turning into veins that would generate more and more.
Before calling Mistie, the whale met with the leaders of the four races and explained what was happening and where they were. The orders were simple: the priority for the young ones was to cultivate with the sect; the older ones should focus on another task—multiplying as much as possible.
There were three million powerful souls to reincarnate, and they were about a million older individuals; they needed to make the miracle of life happen. It didn’t matter if they were hybrids; they just needed to multiply. As for those souls, none of them wanted to be taken by the laws and be reborn naturally.
Beasts didn’t have as many constraints as humanoids. If the environment was safe and favorable for reproduction, the females would become pregnant quickly. In a few years, an incredible new generation would be born on planet Gloom. Nothing could stop the meteoric rise of this sect.
The draconic beasts were also left in the Twelve Peaks Forest, where they would live. They were encouraged to reproduce, but the goal was to increase Ruri’s private army.
After the whale left, he found his group and went to another formation, the Golem Fortress. He arrived at the rune with the Dao of the Golem God and, around it, saw thousands of golems already preparing, forming bodies to leave the place.
The situation changed, and the priority now was to create an infinite number of powerful cultivators as quickly as possible. They had gained a colossal amount of Elunium from the wasps in the Desolate Battlefield. This metal could be forged, but there was a limit to how much it could enhance the cultivators with its weapons.
They could maximize the gains of this material by giving it to the golems, who would form their bodies using Elunium as a base. This way, they would become more powerful quickly and could keep up with the entire sect.
Beasts, the sect, and the golems were ready; now, it was just a matter of waiting. After everything was completed, the whale felt eyes on him. He saw the frustrated looks from the three young Feys.
He was slightly confused at first. But as he looked at the two girls, he realized his mistake. He had helped other races, so he needed to do something for the Feys as well, even though the Yinblood sect was dominated by them.

"Kisala and Ambry, go to where your clans used to be, gather everyone, and use my name to rebuild them; become their leaders," the whale ordered, giving Ambry the first level of physical cultivation, and buying the first level of the Vital Poison Technique for Kisala.
"This will be the new foundational technique for your clans. I will ask Mistie to order all the other clans on the planet as well: completely eliminate that technique that made children grow up quickly. Tell them that if I find anyone not of the appropriate age cultivating, I will severely punish their clan. No Fey child should ever be used for that again; a child should live like one."
The whale ordered, and the two smiled eagerly. Mentally, they exchanged messages; Corin was right; the whale softens easily if they act more childishly.
Unaware of his mistake, the whale turned to Idris. "We’ll become gray disciples. You’ll find your mother, and then we’ll merge her clan with your father’s. If she’s competent, things will change."
He nodded, clenching his fists. Alm and Bruno really wanted to put an end to that nefarious technique created by the Feys, but they also needed to visit the clans to find the scales for Ruri. Soon, they would have three Fey clans under their control.
Before the two left with their orders, Mistie sent an elder with gray disciple emblems to everyone in the group. With that, they wouldn’t have to stay in the forest, although the whale no longer needed to follow any rules.
Everyone went to the central area of the sect. The whale released everyone to explore what the sect had to offer, but Ruri stayed by his side and didn’t want to leave. The whale saw her look and felt his body warm, understanding. He turned towards a building, but she interrupted him.
"Let’s go back to the forest, master... being together in the dark, damp underground makes everything more wild and exciting. It also fits you; we’ve spent so much time in places like this that I feel at home."
Alm and Bruno snorted while she affectionately hugged his arm. What kind of woman preferred such a place? Well, she had indeed lived alongside them like this for a long time. So, they returned to the forest; the rules were only for true disciples. Now they would have to work hard to restore their souls, which were currently in a pitiful fragment.
