Outside the final restricted area in the Deadly Sea of Sand, the two armies of cultivators have finally successfully joined forces. Continuing northward is the battlefield where the Fifth Rank great power and True Monarch Tian Zhu are currently engaged in a battle. Even without getting close, the entire area is enveloped by intersecting forces.

The two large armies of cultivators dare not proceed further. If they rashly involve themselves in such a level of conflict, even Gold Core Daoist Masters could be reduced to dust, let alone others.

Although it is said that they have joined forces, in reality, the two armies of cultivators are still separated by a distance, gazing at each other from afar. There is no interaction between them. Even though the Flying Swan Sect and Crane Song Sect have cooperated in the past, this is not the time for building relationships.

After years of battles and heavy losses, everyone has exhausted much of their enthusiasm. At this time, no one is interested in socializing. Especially Jin Li Daoist Master, who is unwilling to interact with the cultivators on the other side due to the unpleasantness with True Monarch Mountain Peak. True Monarch Mountain Peak is not present in the army; the one in charge is a cultivator from the Yellow Lotus Sect's East River Branch. Being proud as they possess a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, they are not willing to come over and greet Jin Li Daoist Master proactively.

The two armies of cultivators are in close proximity, yet there is no communication or interaction between them. Everyone remains silent.

The Deadly Sea of Sand has been mostly cleared, except for the area ahead that cannot be entered. Despite the setbacks and significant costs, the mission entrusted by True Monarch Tian Zhu has finally been completed.

As for the next steps, they can only wait for further instructions. Jin Li Daoist Master used a secret method to contact True Monarch Tian Zhu and seek guidance on the next course of action.

True Monarch Tian Zhu did not keep everyone waiting for long and quickly issued instructions. Following True Monarch Tian Zhu's orders, Jin Li Daoist Master led the army of cultivators on their journey back. The opposing army of cultivators most likely received instructions from True Monarch Mountain Peak as well and began to retreat.

After years of arduous battles and countless efforts, there is finally a result. Although True Monarch Tian Zhu did not offer any rewards, everyone is happy to leave the Deadly Sea of Sand and return to their homes.

The armies of cultivators from Taiyi Sect, Flying Swan Sect, and Northern Desert Qi Family boarded flying boats and flew out for less than half an hour. Jin Li Daoist Master gathered several Gold Core Daoist Masters together.

Jin Li Daoist Master announced True Monarch Tian Zhu's new command to everyone: the army of cultivators will continue to retreat, but all the Gold Core Daoist Masters in the army must accompany her into the final restricted area of the Deadly Sea of Sand to prevent any surprises from the Fifth Rank great power.

Jin Li Daoist Master's words caused a commotion among the crowd. Entering the battlefield where the Fifth Rank great power and Primordial Spirit True Monarch are fighting, facing such terrifying experts, wouldn't that put them in danger?

Jin Li Daoist Master patiently explained to everyone. True Monarch Tian Zhu has already pushed the Fifth Rank great power to a desperate situation and is on the verge of complete victory. Their Gold Core Daoist Masters are not meant to directly intervene in the battle but to observe from the sidelines, just in case.

After True Monarch Tian Zhu achieves a complete victory, he will not forget everyone's contributions and will surely show his appreciation.

Knowing that opposition is futile, everyone fell silent. Only Qi Nanfei Daoist Master from the Northern Desert Qi Family asked one more question: Do the Gold Core Daoist Masters from True Monarch Mountain Peak's team also have to enter the restricted area?

Jin Li Daoist Master patiently replied that True Monarch Tian Zhu is not familiar with the subordinates of True Monarch Mountain Peak and does not trust them. Therefore, he allowed them to leave and only called for the Gold Core Daoist Masters from the three forces to go. This shows True Monarch Tian Zhu's trust in everyone. When True Monarch Tian Zhu's grand plan succeeds, all three forces will enjoy endless benefits.

Regardless of whether Jin Li Daoist Master's words are true or false, she explained it kindly to everyone, and they should be content. If anyone is truly unreasonable, Jin Li Daoist Master can easily suppress them without True Monarch Tian Zhu needing to take action.

Before setting off with Jin Li Daoist Master, the several Gold Core Daoist Masters returned to their respective teams to give instructions.

Due to the disappearance ofthe overpowering force that shrouded the Deadly Sea of Sand, Meng Zhang can now use the Heavenly Calculation Technique more smoothly for divination. Every Diviner must exercise restraint when using the Heavenly Calculation Technique and not abuse it indiscriminately.

Meng Zhang used the Grand Evolving Fortune technique not only to pursue and eliminate Demonic Cultivation and search for sand monster nests but also to calculate the whereabouts of the Spirit Cores. The Spirit Cores within the Deadly Sea of Sand are often found near the nests of sand monsters. Once the nests absorb the Spirit Cores and fully mature, the Spirit Cores naturally disappear.

Based on Meng Zhang's calculations, the disciples of Taiyi Sect found hidden nests and successfully destroyed them, seizing a total of seven Spirit Cores of varying sizes. Five of the Spirit Cores are too small and are estimated to be insufficient for cultivators in the Foundation Building stage to break through to the Gold Core stage. They can only be used for the daily cultivation of Gold Core Daoist Masters and will be depleted after a few uses.

The two largest Spirit Cores are the most precious. Meng Zhang personally kept them. Now, as they are about to enter the dangerous battlefield, where the outcome is uncertain and life and death are unknown, no one knows what will happen despite Jin Li Daoist Master's casual remarks. If any unexpected events occur, Jin Li Daoist Master herself will be in danger, let alone taking care of others.

Meng Zhang entrusted all the Spirit Cores to the senior disciple Niu Dawei, instructing him to bring them back to Taiyi Sect at all costs. Even if something unexpected happens to Meng Zhang, with the Third Rank spirit vein of Grand Lion Ridge and these Spirit Cores, the Gold Core Daoist Masters of Taiyi Sect will not be cut off, and the momentum of the sect's rise will not be interrupted.

After finishing the instructions, Meng Zhang joined Jin Li Daoist Master and Yang Xueyi to meet up. Once the Gold Core Daoist Masters had given their instructions to their disciples, they followed Jin Li Daoist Master and embarked on an unknown path.

The armies of the three forces continued their journey, flying away from the Deadly Sea of Sand. Jin Li Daoist Master, accompanied by the five Gold Core Daoist Masters—Fei Shi Daoist Master and Wu Mingwei Daoist Master from the Flying Swan Sect, Qi Nanfei Daoist Master from the Northern Desert Qi Family, Meng Zhang Daoist Master, and Yang Xueyi Daoist Master from Taiyi Sect—flew swiftly and soon arrived outside the restricted area.

Jin Li Daoist Master solemnly instructed the others to follow closely and not to fall behind. Then she took out a talisman and threw it forward with force.

The talisman, without any wind, continuously emitted a dazzling light as it flew ahead. Jin Li Daoist Master followed the talisman, and the others did not dare to delay, following closely behind.

The trajectory of the talisman's flight happened to be the area where various forces were entangled but had the least impact on the surroundings. Moreover, wherever the talisman passed, the powerful forces that were originally entangled together weakened significantly.

The area that Gold Core Daoist Masters had feared and avoided became bearable.
