No one responded.

Everyone looked serious, including Xiao Mu and Cen Yan.

Utilizing their Fourth Realm Mutated Beings to immediately conduct the Blood Sacrifice of Xuan Yin Banner, King Xuan and his party are sure to empower the Xuan Yin Banner.

Even though this empowerment is not enough to break open the True Realm Gate to allow Ancestor Xuan Yin to infiltrate, it poses a lethal threat to Xiao Mu and the others.

All looked troubled, their faces filled with worry as they hastened their return to the Camp.

As expected, when they returned to the Camp...

The ambush by Wu Ling and the others was discovered and they encountered the Five Elements God King. The Xuan Yin Banner appeared, killing Ge Xuan Shi and the Fire Scale King.

Wu Ling, Feng Zhu, and Yu Ting narrowly escaped but were all injured.

The Four-Eyed Ghost King convened an emergent council meeting. He spoke soberly, "The ambush was discovered, the Plan failed. We have lost the chance to destroy King Xuan's reserve Blood Sacrifice of Xuan Yin Banner. However, Xiao Mu and the others performed well. Their ambush was successful, killing the Divine Wing King, Sky Hammer King, Blood King, Treasure Fan King, and Cen Wu, dealing a considerable blow to King Xuan's side."

"What should we do next? Everyone, please share your thoughts. Xiao Mu, do you have any suggestions?"

The Four-Eyed Ghost King intentionally looked at Xiao Mu, wanting to hear his opinion.

The failure of Wu Ling and the others' ambush had nothing to do with Xiao Mu.

The ambush Plan Xiao Mu originally proposed was good in itself; it was simply bad luck for Wu Ling and their team.

The Four-Eyed Ghost King still valued Xiao Mu's opinion.

Everyone else couldn't help but look at Xiao Mu.

Only Cen Yan, unconvinced and gripping his bloody head, grumbled, "Why ask him? Why not me? Can't I come up with a better solution?"

The people present all knew he was just being stubborn and paid him no attention.

"There's no need. In this remaining time, I suggest we each retreat to enhance our own strength and wait for the Realm of True Nothingness door to reopen, without making any other moves."

Xiao Mu's suggestion took everyone by surprise.

"Xiao Mu, don't tell me you're scared?"

Chen E instinctively provoked.

Xiao Mu did not respond, quietly deciding to deal with this person sooner or later.

Feng Zhu was still full of flattery towards Xiao Mu, and retorted, "Ridiculous. Would Mr. Xiao be scared? Proposing that we retreat, there must be a reason."

"Ass kisser! Unfortunately, no matter how much you flatter him, he will not save you when you die!"

Chen E sneered.

The Four-Eyed Ghost King ignored the two and looked at Xiao Mu, "Xiao Mu, state your reason, why should we each retreat without making any other moves?"

Xiao Mu said, "It's just a casual suggestion. If I were King Xuan, after the blood sacrifice, the power of the Xuan Yin Banner would greatly increase. Along with the loss of five powerful warriors on our side, he would not be able to spare enough manpower to track us down."

"Under such circumstances, I would definitely block the Realm of True Nothingness gate with the Xuan Yin Banner and wait silently for the Realm of True Nothingness gate to reopen."

"After all, once the Realm of True Nothingness gate reopens, we will definitely go to the gate in an attempt to escape. Otherwise, once we miss the opportunity and the gate closes, we will all die in the Realm of True Nothingness."

"If you don't want to be trapped to death, then you have to forcibly break through the Xuan Yin Banner in King Xuan's hand. King Xuan can then just wait for us to come to him."

"So, I suggest everyone, during this last period, improve your strength by yourself. As for whether you can escape from King Xuan or not, besides relying on individual abilities, we can only let fate decide."

The outcome is set—if they want to break through the Realm of True Nothingness gate, they have to try to increase their strength.

The Xuan Yin Banner, after the blood sacrifice, can already partially break open the True Realm Gate. Even if it can't completely let Ancestor Xuan Yin infiltrate it, a hand or a foot should not be a problem.

Presently, enhancing strength is the only option.
