Just then, the horrifying event occurred again.

The finger suddenly twitched, bending as if it had been hooked.

Xiao Mu's heart jumped. He once again unhesitatingly cast a Suppressing Evil Talisman.

The Suppressing Evil Talisman transformed into a pagoda. Shielded by layers of golden light, it charged directly towards the finger, attempting to suppress it.

The pagoda sank into the finger and disappeared. The finger immediately stiffened, moving more slowly.

However, as the finger moved, a terrifying aura had already been released, filling the air with shocking energy fluctuations.

Boom!

Xiao Mu made a sudden leap. Where he had just been standing, a huge hole had suddenly appeared as if it had been hit by a powerful thermal weapon.

If he had been a tad slower in escaping, he would have already been dead.

There was no time to wipe away the beads of sweat that had sprung from his forehead due to shock.

Xiao Mu didn't hesitate to cast Suppressing Evil Talisman again, one after another, this time casting ten in a row.

Each pagoda charged towards the finger to suppress it and sank into it one after another. The finger finally lost vitality and was completely suppressed, no longer moving.

Xiao Mu sighed in relief, only to realize that his back was already soaked through in sweat.

For someone at his level, it was generally very difficult to perspire, which goes to show how tense that situation had been.

Then, Xiao Mu carefully bent down, intending to put away this finger.

However, just as he was bending down, he suddenly realized something and hurriedly pulled his hand back.

Even though this finger had been suppressed by the Suppressing Evil Talisman, it was still best not to touch it lightly because of its truly evil nature.

He took out the Dharma Bell and waved it towards the finger.

Golden threads shot out from the Dharma Bell, hitting the finger.

The golden threads quickly tightened, attempting to pull the finger into the Dharma Bell.

However, upon encountering the finger, the golden threads were quickly tainted, turning black.

The power of the Dharma Bell momentarily weakened, falling to well under half of its original power.

Xiao Mu's face changed slightly. At this rate, if he really wanted to seclude this finger, his Dharma Bell might get destroyed.

But, since things had come to this point, it was obviously unacceptable not to seal away this finger. He gritted his teeth and continued to use the Dharma Bell.

Finally, the finger was gradually pulled into the Dharma Bell.

The Dharma Bell, with its insufficient ability to seclude, could only handle a three-hundred-year mutation of an ancient relic. When Xiao Mu had previously used it against Ma Ming, he had been unable to pull Ma Ming into it.

But in comparison, this finger was rather small and theoretically could be secluded into the Dharma Bell.

Xiao Mu poured Dao Method Spiritual Energy into the bell one layer after another, trying to shrink the finger further using the bell's secluding ability.

However, no matter how much Dao Method Spiritual Energy he put in, the finger showed no indication of shrinking.

The formidable power of the Dharma Bell was of no use against this finger.

If anything, the Dharma Bell was forced to expand and enlarge significantly.

Xiao Mu's face changed again. At this rate, the Dharma Bell might indeed end up destroyed.

The finger was finally pulled into the Dharma Bell, but it was not the finger that had shrunk, but rather the Dharma Bell had been forced to expand.

Meanwhile, the moment the finger entered the Dharma Bell, the bell seemed to have been corroded, beginning to decay.

In an instant, it was as though a thousand, million years had passed, and the Dao Law power within the Dharma Bell gradually weakened.

Xiao Mu's face grew solemn. He once again cast the Suppressing Evil Talisman, sticking it to the Dharma Bell.

It was only after he stuck more than a dozen Suppressing Evil Talismans to it that the speed of corrosion of the Dharma Bell slowed down and stabilized.

I need to return to Alliance headquarters quickly, and have the Alliance ask a specialist to handle this finger issue.

Xiao Mu realized that the appearance of this finger would inevitably involve significant matters, so he decided to let the Alliance handle it.

Clearly, this finger had now exceeded his ability to handle.

"Prepare the airplane, I'm returning to the Alliance!"

Xiao Mu put away the Dharma Bell and walked towards Lei Shun.

"Mr. Xiao, are you leaving so soon, can't you rest a bit? I have prepared a grand reception and wanted to host a feast in your honor."

Upon hearing that Xiao Mu planned to leave, Lei Shun tried to convince him to stay.

"No need."

Xiao Mu promptly rejected Lei Shun's invitation, "I appreciate the intention. If I get the chance, I will come back."

"Alright, since Mr. Xiao insists on leaving, I won't detain you any further. I'll arrange for your plane right away."

Lei Shun immediately went to make the arrangements, even bidding Xiao Mu a special farewell.

Xiao Mu flew back to Luo City, and after landing, he headed for Broken Truth Mountain, Broken Truth Peak.

He returned to the Task Hall.

"I have completed my task."

Xiao Mu walked up to Zhu Zhu's desk.

"You've completed it?"

Zhu Zhu appeared surprised, as if she didn't expect Xiao Mu to have completed the task so quickly.

It's only been a few days, hadn't it?

That task had been undertaken by others before, but they all failed. Yet Xiao Mu managed to complete it in such a short time.

Was this really a rookie who had just broken through?

Could it be that humans indeed surpass all other races in potential?

Not only her, but the other Alien Species also displayed incredulous faces, gazing towards Xiao Mu.

Yang Li snorted as a sign of contempt.

Xiao Mu paid no attention to the others, directly taking out the certificate written by Lei Shun in March City and the picture of the Earth Seal he specifically took.

With this, Zhu Zhu had no more doubts.

"Alright."

After looking at Xiao Mu with surprise and uncertainty, Zhu Zhu finally cancelled the task and handed a small box to Xiao Mu.

"In this small box is a semi-finished Breaking Realm Pill. You can inspect it."

Xiao Mu carefully opened the box to check, it was but a pill the size of a cherry, and it didn't have much Spirituality.

However, Xiao Mu, who had taken a Boundary Breaking Pill before, believed this Breaking Realm Pill was correct based on his experience.

Xiao Mu casually put away the Breaking Realm Pill and exited the Hall.

Zhu Zhu couldn't help but mumble under her breath at his retreating figure, "He didn't even say thank you."

Just as these words fell, Xiao Mu suddenly turned around, startling Zhu Zhu. In the midst of her panicked retreat, she hastily asked, "What are you trying to do?"

Xiao Mu found it amusing; he had no ill intentions, "I want to know, if I have issues, who should I turn to?"

He had learned from the Sword in the Stone.

The strong practitioners of the fourth realm, are not unrestrained or scattered, but rather divided into many small groups.

Each group has a leader, who oversees their work.

If there are problems, they can report to the leader. If there are tasks from above, the leaders will also distribute the tasks to each of them.

In addition, the Alliance has regular tasks, which are carried out cooperatively as a group.

Zhu Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest, "Your leader is in Zone 3, number 19, named Perfected Howling. You can find him; your identity badge proves your identity."

Without a word, Xiao Mu turned and left.

Zhu Zhu opened her mouth intending to call Xiao Mu back, but seeing that he had no intention of turning back, she kept quiet.

She had intended to accompany Xiao Mu, but seeing that he didn't ask for help, she let go of the thought.

"Hmph! Perfected Howling has a bad temper, hopefully you'll suffer a bit under him."

Xiao Mu didn't hear Zhu Zhu's words and left the hall straight away, heading to No. 19, Zone 3 to find Perfected Howling.

Zone 3 is evidently the residence of the late-stage mutated beings of the fourth realm.

For Xiao Mu, who was in the early stage of the fourth realm, these late-stage mutated beings were truly extraordinarily powerful.

Zone 2 has a courtyard, Zone 3 has an entire area sectioned off, looking like a mini manor.

In not much time, Xiao Mu arrived in front of Manor 19.

This manor obviously had a powerful array set up. The fog was thick and prevented those outside from seeing inside clearly.

Xiao Mu did not choose to break in forcefully and instead rang the doorbell outside the manor.

Perfected Howling was a monkey who attained Dao, with an extremely fiery temper, so much so that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a blaze.

However, Perfected Howling wasn't the only one inside No. 19. There were many other mutated beings present, gathered in Perfected Howling's home, discussing the arrangements for the next Fixed Mission.

The sudden ringing of the doorbell caused them to stop their conversation, and surprise was evident on their faces.

An early-stage mutated being who had attained Dao in the form of a lion looked at Perfected Howling with an odd expression, wondering, "Brother Howling, did you invite someone else?"
