Xiao Mu had a lingering question in his heart, he couldn't help but ask, "With your power level, you seem to be lacking what it takes to accept the mission of Ferocious Tomb. Can you tell me why you have to take on this task?"

While Tian Xiang's power is not insignificant, her realm has reached the late stage of the Fifth Realm, similar to Xiao Mu's. However, in Xiao Mu's eyes, such a power level isn't enough to handle the Ferocious Tomb task.

There are many powerful zombies in the Ferocious Tomb, especially King Dayang, who is a formidable character on the verge of breaking through into the True Realm from the Peak of the Fifth Realm, who is terrifyingly powerful.

The only consolation is that King Dayang is currently in a critical moment of seizing a Divine Being's corpse, and can't act personally.

This is their only opportunity for victory.

Otherwise, if King Dayang were to have a free hand or succeed in the seizure, there would be no need for him and Tian Xiang to go to the Ferocious Tomb – they would just be walking to their deaths.

Tian Xiang said helplessly, "This is a mission from the Alliance. As a Mutated Being of the Alliance, each of us has to follow the Alliance's arrangements, and I am no exception."

"By completing this task, I can obtain a lot of resources and rewards, which would be of great help in reaching the peak."

"Oh!"

Tian Xiang's words made Xiao Mu thoughtful.

He had heard about the way the Alliance arranges its tasks.

The full name of the Alliance is 'Offensive and Defensive Alliance of all Races in the Human World'.

As the name suggests, the purpose of the Alliance is to protect the Human World and resist the invasion of Evil Absurdity.

Every Mutated Being of the Alliance must contribute to the Alliance in exchange for enjoying various benefits provided by the Alliance.

On this point, even Xiao Mu isn't an exception.

Previously, because Xiao Mu was still weak, having just entered the Fifth Realm, the Alliance had him doing Fixed Missions.

The so-called Fixed Missions involve guarding places such as Ancient Palaces and tombs, protecting them from destruction and preventing Evil Absurdities from invading.

Now, Xiao Mu's power level has increased, advancing from the mid-Fifth Realm to the late Fifth Realm.

In the late stage, he was supposed to be assigned specific tasks, but since he had only just broken through and hadn't cultivated advanced techniques yet, he wasn't relocated.

Tian Xiang, being in the late stage, had evidently been carrying out specific tasks for a while.

The Ferocious Tomb is one such specific task.

"What's your task?"

Xiao Mu asked Tian Xiang.

Tian Xiang stammered in response, "To infiltrate the Ferocious Tomb, disrupt King Dayang's plan, destroy the body of the ancient divine being. In the process, to gain some benefits from the tomb, there are said to be a large amount of Energy Fruits stored in the tomb."

"A large amount of Energy Fruits?"

Upon hearing about the Energy Fruits, Xiao Mu's interest was piqued.

At the moment, what he needs most includes Energy Fruits.

"Yes, Mr. Mu, King Dayang, in order to break through, has stored a large amount of Energy Fruit resources in the tomb. As long as we can complete this task, I am willing to split the Energy Fruits we obtain from the Ferocious tomb with you."

Tian Xiang looked up at Xiao Mu, her voice showing a hint of timidity, as if she was very worried that Xiao Mu would rob her.

Xiao Mu said, "Discussing the distribution of Energy Fruits seems premature."

"Yes."

Tian Xiang carefully took up the thread of the conversation, politely asked, "Mr. Mu, do you have any insights?"

"Stop being so polite to me, just be natural."

Tian Xiang's manner of speaking made Xiao Mu feel uncomfortable, and he casually remarked on it.

"Yes, you're right."

Tian Xiang nodded repeatedly, her face sincere as she asked, "Do you have any insights?"

Xiao Mu expressed his exasperation, feeling as though his earlier encouragement to Tian Xiang was wasted. He asked: "How are you planning to thwart King Dayang's attempt to seize the Divine Being's body? King Dayang is already a Peak Fifth Realm power, approaching the True Realm, and completing the seizure will immediately allow him to step into the True Realm. How are you planning to ruin his plan?"

Tian Xiang immediately said: "The Alliance has given me something. As long as it's tossed onto the Divine Being's corpse, it can immediately destroy the corpse, thwart King Dayang's plan of seizure while significantly damaging him."

"There's such an item?"

Xiao Mu heard this with surprise and showed a pleased expression.

The task of the Ferocious Tomb, the one thing he was really worried about was King Dayang.

Fortunately King Dayang was at a crucial junction of the seizure process and couldn't spare the time to deal with them.

As for the other powerful zombies besides King Dayang, Xiao Mu wasn't particularly concerned.

With Xiao Mu's own power, in addition to the help of his Ghost Servant and Tian Xiang, he believed that dealing with other powerful zombies in the Ferocious Tomb was quite doable, apart from King Dayang.

He couldn't help but ask, "What is it? Can I have a look?"

"It's just a Fu Zhuan."

While saying this, Tian Xiang pulled it out and showed it to Xiao Mu without any guard, "It is the Four Symbols Heavenly Fire Talisman."

It was a square-shaped Fu Zhuan, divided into four parts, each one a different color, corresponding to the four colors of Qing, White, Red, and Black in the Four Symbols.

"Four Symbols Heavenly Fire Talisman!"

Both the name and the shape of the Fu Zhuan took Xiao Mu by surprise.

In an instant, he thought of the Four Symbols Heaven Splitting Talisman that Lady Hua had once used.

Both Fu Zhuan appeared remarkably similar, and it was likely that they had incorporated the Four Symbols' power.

The Four Symbols, existing between the Five Elements and Yin and Yang, represented a kind of power that existed between them.

And the Four Symbols Heavenly Fire Talisman in Tian Xiang's hand, contained a rich power of the Four Symbols, giving off a vibe that it was about to emanate out. Although it had not been used yet, the immense power it contained was nonetheless intimidating.

Without a doubt, this Fu Zhuan was made by a True Realm power and held an amazing force.

So it seemed that Lady Hua was also part of the Alliance.
