"Since this person chose to breakthrough near the Tower of Space, either they want to make friends, or they're deliberately provoking us. Either way, we should go check it out," the old woman said calmly, her gaze falling on her proudest disciple. "Kofi, you mark the spot."
"Yes!" A woman in a white robe replied with a serious expression. Then she closed her eyes, as if sensing something.
Suddenly, Kofi opened her eyes, her hands weaving intricate seals. A formation slowly emerged.
"Good, good, good. Your recording of space formations is getting more refined. This time, the spot you picked is off by no more than a hundred meters," the old woman said with a smile.
"All thanks to your guidance, teacher," the woman said, returning the smile.
"Let's go. The five of us will see what's going on," the old woman said, glancing at the rest of the disciples. "You all stay behind in the tower. No need to follow."
The disciples all nodded in agreement.
The Great Elder stepped into the formation, followed by the other four elders.
At the top of the little mountain, Yun Jin was breaking through her realm completely unrestrained.
Her cultivation was too deep. After entering a second-tier small world, she almost instantly surged to the Tianxian stage. Now, she didn't just stop at the early stage, she jumped straight to mid-Tianxian—and her growth hadn't slowed.
When the Space Society members arrived, Yun Jin offered them a slight smile. "Just a moment, let me consolidate my realm first."
She was overly polite.
The five elders of the Space Society instinctively nodded.
Then Yun Jin casually closed her eyes and continued pushing toward higher cultivation.
A flicker of surprise crossed the elders' faces.
"Great Elder, we don't even know her identity, yet she meets us with such composure. She keeps cultivating right in front of us?" the Second Elder said in disbelief.
The five elders of the Space Society represented, essentially, the top combat power of this Void Mirage World.
Not to mention, behind them stood a massive organization: the Space Society itself.
In this world, space equals truth, the Space Society equals truth, and the five elders equal truth. No matter who this woman was or what her goal might be, she shouldn't be this calm.
A flicker of something unusual appeared in the Great Elder's eyes. She said softly, "Then we'll wait for her to finish. We have time."
True to her word, the five elders seated themselves, patiently waiting.
All five were Tianxian stage experts. Even against a newly broken-through cultivator, they didn't feel threatened.
Yun Jin continued pushing her small realm, the energy surging around her causing the elders' expressions to keep shifting.
Something wasn't right.
The energy they sensed before—wasn't this mysterious woman just breaking into the Tianxian stage?
Then how is she mid-Tianxian now?
And her spiritual power is still increasing?!
What's going on?
A first breakthrough straight into late Tianxian?
Does this even follow the truth?
The elders couldn't help but glance at the Great Elder. They didn't even know if this person was friend or foe. If she's an enemy, letting her keep breaking through could be a huge missed opportunity.
The Great Elder's expression turned serious. She sent a voice transmission: "Don't act recklessly. This woman is dangerous."
She could guarantee it. If they just waited safely, it was fine, but if they made a move recklessly, all five might be dead or severely injured.
The elders' hearts skipped a beat.
The Great Elder was skilled in energy sensing. Since breaking into late Tianxian, few could ever make her this cautious.
Yet this woman did.
When had such a terrifying power ever appeared in the Void Mirage World?
Yun Jin's aura kept skyrocketing.
The five watched nervously, uneasy like sitting on needles. They still didn't understand why this mysterious powerhouse wanted to summon them here.
What exactly was her goal?
While the five elders remained on edge, Yun Jin slowly opened her eyes. She reined in her aura and smiled gently at them. "Sorry to keep you waiting."
The elders forced smiles back.
Just moments ago, they personally sensed Yun Jin's breakthrough to late Tianxian. They had reached Tianxian thousands of years ago, and even now, they were only late stage.
And this woman? She broke through and was already late Tianxian.
Such accumulation! Such talent! It was almost shocking.
"No problem. We've just arrived ourselves," the Great Elder said, forcing a smile.
Given her status, it had been a long time since she'd had to exercise this level of caution. The smile looked unnatural.
Yun Jin chuckled lightly. "Greetings, seniors. I'm Yun Jin from the Vast Azure World. I humbly summoned you to discuss a business matter."
The five elders' pupils constricted sharply.
The Vast Azure World! She came from the Vast Azure World.
The Great Elder squinted, suddenly recalling a very old memory.
"Wan Dao… what's your relation to her?" the Great Elder asked suddenly.
Yun Jin said calmly, "Wan Dao Saint is my senior."
What? This woman is Wan Dao's disciple?
The five elders' expressions shifted instantly.
Especially the Great Elder in the center, whose teeth began grinding.
Yun Jin looked confused. What's going on?
Her master is universally praised as a gentleman and saint. He isn't the type to cause trouble everywhere.
Far away, in another space, Wan Dao Saint sneezed heavily twice.
The two others hurriedly asked, "Big brother, what's wrong? You haven't sneezed in ages."
Wan Dao Saint rubbed his nose, confused, yet smiling gently. "Never mind the small things. Let's go. Through the last passage lies the Polar Night Demon World."
A cold glint flickered in his eyes.
Over the years, the Polar Night Demon's forces came to this outer-realm, hunting them down. They had to constantly hide.
In this outer-realm, only the three of them survived. Besides him, there was the master of concealment, the Third, and the youngest, the Eighth Sister.
Everyone else had died in repeated battles.
Even in the face of such losses, the survivors never thought of giving up. These debts of blood, someone had to reclaim them!
Through countless battles, Wan Dao Saint gradually discovered that the passage had been found by a high-ranking species under the Abyss Demon God: the Hei Xi Demon Clan.
This clan found the passage but didn't report it immediately. They wanted to claim the whole world for themselves. That gave the survivors the breathing room they needed.
Other demons of the Polar Night Demon World had no idea they existed. Otherwise, even a minor envoy from the Demon God would have wiped them out.
Thanks to Hei Xi Demon Clan's little ambition, they had a chance to recover. Over the years, Wan Dao Saint studied the Hei Xi Demon Clan's techniques, and a few months ago, he fully mastered their powers.
He adapted the techniques for humans, allowing them to display Hei Xi Demon Clan traits convincingly.
Then, they secretly hunted three Hei Xi demons and assumed their forms. Now, they were ready to cross the spatial passage and enter the Polar Night Demon World.
They weren't going to just be passive victims anymore. It was time to make the Polar Night demons feel some pressure.
