Beiming Xue's expression changed abruptly.

Ximen Wushang trembled all over, true fear appearing in his eyes for the first time.

The Void Walker! That taboo existence, spoken of only in legend, who commanded the very source of space! Even the ancient demon lord worshipped in the Western Domain had spoken of him with deep wariness, calling him "untouchable"! And Lin Hao had actually managed to enlist him to craft a Void Stabilizing Talisman?

At that moment, everyone's estimation of the power behind Lin Hao rose another notch.

Xuanyu stroked his beard, smiling as he watched everyone's shocked expressions. He gloated inwardly: That scared you, huh? My disciple's got some serious backing!

Yun Qingtian nodded slightly, feeling considerably reassured. With an existence like the Void Walker supporting them, many difficult problems would be solved with ease.

Lin Hao continued, "The five main arrays will be set up at the Domain Lord's Mansions in the five domains. Secondary teleportation nodes will also be established at strategic locations throughout each domain and linked to the main arrays. That way, should war break out, reinforcements can arrive in an instant."

He paused, his tone turning grave. "But the Teleportation Arrays are only a means to an end. The real key is the people's hearts. If everyone harbors ulterior motives and distrusts one another, then even an array that reaches the heavens will be nothing but a decoration."

His gaze suddenly sharpened, like a sword drawn from its sheath, piercing straight into their hearts. "So, the second matter—purging the traitors and rooting out the spies the Outer Realm Sky Demons have planted among the Human Race!"

The moment he said this, the atmosphere in the grand hall abruptly froze.

Purging the traitors... Those four words struck a nerve with far too many people.
