"I need to select one hundred people to follow me to the Lower Realm and accomplish something momentous!" Gu Qingcheng gathered the forces of First City and told them, "These hundred people must obey my orders absolutely. Whatever I tell you to do, you do. No questions asked.
There may be danger while carrying out this task, but as long as you survive, the benefits will be beyond measure."
The many True Immortal Realm, Tribulation Transcendence Realm, Dao Integration Realm, and Primordial Spirit Realm cultivators of First City all looked at Gu Qingcheng in confusion.
The Lower Realm?
What momentous task?
And there was danger?
The key issue was that he had not mentioned a single benefit.
Many Primordial Spirit Realm and Dao Integration Realm cultivators were eager to give it a try. They longed for an opportunity, but they had no idea how great the risks might be.
Meanwhile, the True Immortal Realm and Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivators were rather quiet.
They had already been treated preferentially in First City. Ordinary opportunities meant nothing to them.

Everyone had lost hope
