This led people to suddenly realize that this legendary mercenary group, which had repeatedly appeared in the public eye, was no longer a simple mercenary group.
They had become a colossal power, capable of easily killing Seventh Realm Sky-Shattering clan members. Even against peak Seventh Realm opponents, they could overwhelm and kill them through sheer numbers!
They became the nightmare of the Sky-Shattering clan in just one day.
According to internal estimates from the Sky-Shattering clan, to deal with this new Ice Sword Mercenary Group, it would likely require the deployment of three peak Seventh Realm Sky-Shattering clan members, and even then, they would need weapons of Immortal Artifact caliber.
Upon reaching this conclusion, they were all petrified. Had this mercenary group achieved such terrifying strength?
If their cultivation were any higher, for instance, if the remaining few who hadn't reached the Soul Transformation stage all advanced, could they then slay immortals?
This was bad; they could already sway the outcome of frontal battles!
The cultivators' alliance was not foolish. What the Sky-Shattering clan could deduce, they could too.
Therefore, they could no longer view this mercenary group as mere entertainment. After all, this mercenary group's power now surpassed their own.
The interim leader of the cultivators' alliance was Wuyuan, the sect master of Canghong Sect, an Immortal-level powerhouse.
He met with Luo Xiaowei and the others, along with the high-ranking officials of the cultivators' alliance. Upon seeing the potential of Luo Xiaowei and his companions, their pupils contracted.
Each of them would have been considered a Saint Child within their own sects.
Wuyuan remained silent for a moment before asking, "Luo Xiaowei, don't you have anything to explain?"
Luo Xiaowei's mind was filled with question marks: "What do I need to explain?"
"Your teammates... who are they?"
Luo Xiaowei glanced at Li Qingyun and the others. They were all casually fiddling with their Immortal Artifacts.
They seemed completely unconcerned about being robbed.
This trial was different from previous ones; they could activate their marks and return to Blue Star at any time.
However, Chu Yang had tasked them with completely defeating the Sky-Shattering clan in this world and returning only after humanity achieved complete victory.
Yet, if the humans of this world truly disappointed them, then they would regrettably have to abandon their mission.
Luo Xiaowei calmly replied, "They are like me, warriors fighting for humanity."
A Mahayana stage cultivator, displeased with Luo Xiaowei's attitude, reprimanded him, "The alliance leader is asking where you came from and if you can show more respect to your elders. We know every named genius in this world, yet you appeared without any prior notice. We've investigated your background, including yours, Luo Xiaowei; you are also of unknown origin!"
Others echoed the sentiment: "That's right, clarify your identities immediately! We don't harbor people of unknown origin!"
Luo Xiaowei was amused to the point of anger. He sneered, "How interesting. Since you've investigated my background, you should know that ever since I arrived in this world, I have never stopped fighting the Sky-Shattering clan, risking my life every time. And you? How many Sky-Shattering clan members have you killed? Mahayana stage, huh? Truly impressive! If you've killed even half as many Sky-Shattering clan members as I have, I'll call you grandpa!"
The two lackeys of Wuyuan turned ashen and trembled with rage after hearing this.
Was this blatant humiliation? Was it saying they were slacking off?
"You arrogant wretch, do you know who you are speaking to..."
However, as the Mahayana stage cultivator was saying this, he instantly felt a terrifying aura engulfing him, as if countless dragons were coldly staring at him.
Boundless killing intent washed over him.
Wang Teng's cold, vertical pupils fixed on him, "You dog, try barking at my good brother again?"
The others also unleashed their auras, focusing on the Mahayana stage cultivator who intended to confront Luo Xiaowei.
The air seemed to freeze instantly. He felt the terrifying killing intent emanating from this group, these were clearly hardened individuals who had experienced brutal slaughter on the battlefield.
Furthermore, judging by their battles from the previous two days, these individuals possessed the strength to kill Mahayana stage powerhouses.
Wuyuan observed all this, remained silent for a moment, and then waved his hand, dispelling the force that was about to freeze the air.
He smiled and said, "We are all fighting for a common enemy. Harmony brings wealth. Let's all calm down, shall we?"
Wuyuan was now at the peak of the Immortal level, his Dao Fruit was in the process of transforming into the Dao Palace.
It was precisely due to such immense strength that he could hold the position of interim leader of the cultivators' alliance.
As for Immortal King level powerhouses, due to their immense destructive capabilities, they, like the Immortal Emperors, had retreated to other spaces to fight the Sky-Shattering clan kings.
Therefore, ordinary immortals were currently the highest combat power remaining in this world, fighting the Sky-Shattering clan.
Before Li Qingyun and the others arrived, they never expected this world to be in such a state.
Meng Zibin shook his head. The world where they had previously trained, when facing a great enemy, did not exhibit such laxity as the cultivators in this world. Even cultivators who had previously held grudges had temporarily set aside their animosities to collectively resist the Sky-Shattering clan.
But in this world... Meng Zibin felt a sense of unease. The humans here lacked any sense of crisis, and were even less spirited than the cultivators from Blue Star!
Luo Xiaowei made a reassuring gesture to Wang Teng, indicating for him to let him handle it.
He then turned to Wuyuan and said, "We come from other planes. You can think of us as... an organization specifically dedicated to fighting the Sky-Shattering clan. Our elders assign us missions and send us to various worlds invaded by the Sky-Shattering clan to combat them."
"So, never assume we fear you. If we wanted to return, it would only take a thought. And don't try to test us. Our elders have told us that all humans across all planes are our kin. Therefore, our mission is to come to this world and completely repel the Sky-Shattering clan... completely!"
Completely repel.
Upon hearing these four words, everyone wore expressions of disbelief.
Luo Xiaowei continued, "However... I must regrettably inform you that our mission is not mandatory. Whether we succeed or fail has no bearing on us. Your cultivators' alliance can continue to be complacent. If you disappoint us to a certain extent, we can only bid you farewell. Fighting for people like you, who lack self-preservation and fighting spirit, is less worthwhile than dedicating that energy to fighting in other worlds."
