Ling Tian and the others had set up temporary bases in three places around the Technology Cultivators' stronghold in Sunset Canyon. That had left Chi Xue's side deeply worried. After all, they knew that since mastering runic secret arts, Zi Yun and the others had grown even more skilled in formations and restrictions. The temporary bases they built had powerful defenses and attacks—and could keep them from contacting the Technology Cultivators.
It was the same issue as before: if they couldn't contact the Technology Cultivators, they naturally couldn't bring them into the central region of the God Realm and then settle them at the sect headquarters of the various major sects. Their alliance with the Technology Cultivators would then be nothing but an empty shell, utterly pointless.
And if Chi Xue and the others wanted to force their way through the blockade formed by those three temporary bases, they would have to send a large force. Even then, some of their people might fall to Ling Tian and the others' interception. It was no wonder Chi Xue and the others looked so grave as they considered this.
At that moment, Fei Ling thought of another possibility: Ling Tian was trying to make them lead their army toward the eastern region of the God Realm, so that Ling Tian and his people could take the opportunity to attack the sect headquarters of the various major sects.
Chi Xue, however, didn't think so. He believed Ling Tian's side had built those bases simply to kill their people and, of course, to stop them from contacting the Technology Cultivators.
"Why do you say that?" Fei Ling asked, puzzled. The others all looked at Chi Xue as well, clearly just as confused. In their view, destroying the headquarters of the various major sects mattered
