Though the cultivators Ling Tian and the others had recruited during this time were all at the peak of the Near-Saint Eighteenth Heaven, no one could guarantee that cultivators would not emerge who had broken through to the Near-Saint Nineteenth Heaven or even higher. It would be a pity to stop recruiting once they had enough cultivators. After all, the stronger the cultivators who crossed tribulations alongside Ling Tian and the others, the better for Ling Tian. Powerful cultivators could shoulder more of the pressure for him, making it more likely that he could protect Hua Min'er and the others and bring them all out of the universe.
"It's no great loss.

Some of the super experts in the other groups will also divert more of the Lord of the Universe's attention. That will actually make things easier for Ling Tian, so there's nothing wrong with stopping recruitment," Po Tian said indifferently.
"Even so, the cultivators we don't recruit certainly won't survive for long. They can't hide in the Outer Realm Stone to buy time, so they won't be able to trigger their final tribulations alongside Ling Tian and the others," Chang Xiangsi said gravely. "How do we solve this problem?"
She had a point. To trigger their final tribulations at the same time as Ling Tian and the others, the cultivators had to survive until then. If Ling Tian didn't recruit them, they wouldn't be able to use the Outer Realm Stone to prolong their lives as much as possible. It was nearly impossible for them to survive until Ling Tian and the others crossed
