The cultivators of the [Strange Eye Alliance], seeing the Tentacled Vertical Eye's miserable state, thought he might have lost a tiny bit of strength; more likely, though, the Vertical Eye was putting on an act.
According to the [Strange Eye Alliance]'s records, this Vertical Eye had never suffered a permanent drop in his upper limit of strength throughout more than a hundred years of experiments.
But this time, although they had caught only a fleeting glimpse, the information they saw shocked them beyond measure.
His power had plummeted by 90%.
This left them utterly terrified and stunned.
It simply defied reason and surpassed everything they knew.
Gulp!
One cultivator swallowed hard. "Am I seeing things?"
Yet no one answered him.
They were all cultivators. How could their eyes be playing tricks on them?
Only after a full cup of tea's worth of time did they collect themselves, then set out to capture Wang Quan as headquarters had ordered.
Before leaving, they placed numerous Magic Treasure Blanks around the Vertical Eye to seal and suppress him, preventing his escape.
They also stationed many cultivators around the perimeter to stand guard.
Only once everything was ready did the cultivators take to the air and head straight for Riverside Mountain.
"Flower-Scatter Daoist Wang Quan is on Riverside Mountain!"
"With so many of us ambushing him, no matter how capable he is, he won't have time to react!"
"Once we strike, we'll have him dancing to our tune in minutes."
"Then he'll either kneel and beg for mercy, letting us trample his dignity."
"Or we'll beat him into a cripple!"
"Let's see how he acts so arrogant then!"
The cultivators nodded one after another. "Good!"
"We'll all strike together, crush him completely, and make him despair!"
"Then take him in as our dog!"
