Bedevilment

Master Xi Lian's plan had indeed bought him some time. However, there were still cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Realm who had reached the Combined aperture tempering realm stage and were beginning to persuade others to join forces in eliminating Shang Wu City.

Initially, only a few responded to their call, but as time passed, they managed to assemble a team of five Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators. With this team of five, it was more than enough to deal with Master Xi Lian and his kind.

However, before the team of five Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators could take action, shocking news struck everyone like a thunderbolt.

The North Mist Sect, an influential sect that had Combined aperture tempering realm powerhouses, suddenly vanished overnight. Not only did the North Mist Sect disappear, but the entire North Mist City near the sect also turned into a deserted ghost town.
