"Thanks to all the seniors for their help, Cloudview County is clear and bright with you folks around," Wesley said, bowing deeply with genuine eyes.


    "Now that the ckwood folks are out of sight, with the help of the seniors and fellow Daoists, I''ll mobilize the disciples of Sky Sect to scour the entire Cloudview County to find where these ckwood folks are hiding!"


    The Competent ones nodded slightly without much conversation, while other Developing Skill masters eagerly agreed to gather the forces of Cloudview County for a thorough search of the ckwood people.


    But Gary suddenly pouted, slightly confused, "Where is Daoist Warren  going? Why not summon the Competent with us, form a square formation to prevent the ckwood people from escaping?"


    Daoist  Warren , already turning away and heading back inside the sect, didn''t turn back, only leaving behind the sound of heartyughter. "Hahaha, please feel free, my fellow Daoists! I have an old feud with that old geezer from the ck Shell Sect. If I make a move today, he''ll surelye after me. At my age, I''ve be cautious, please bear with me."


    As Daoist Warren  sat back inside the grand hall like a phantom, he smiled slightly, "That turtle Daoist from ck Shell and I have been at odds for a thousand years, neither of us yielding to the other. It''s good he didn''t join this fray today. When winteres, I should bring a jug of wine and share a drink with that old thief."


    Everyone frowned as they watched Daoist  Warren''s retreating figure. But in a moment, within the grand hall of Sky Sect, Daoist  Warren''s voice echoed, and the disciples looked respectfully towards the grand hall as the long-sealed sixth-grade protective formation of Sky Sect rose, with dragons soaring in the sky.


    "Sky Sect is a ce apart from the world, my Competent spirit wanders, ck Shell Sect harbors wild ambitions. Today the sect is closed, guarding against an attack from ck Shell Sect. Disciples are not to leave, focus on protecting the sect, be vignt of external enemies. Those who disobey will be expelled from the sect!"


    The disciples of Sky Sect looked at each other, then all turned their eyes towards Daoist Wesley outside the formation.


    Seeing these unusual looks, Wesley, locked out of the formation, shed a look of confusion, "Expelled from the sect... Master, what did I do wrong? Isn''t everything I do for the sake of the sect?"


    He was outside the formation now! Ever since Daoist Warren brought him out, he had felt it—his master was going to hand him over to ckwood!


    "Om Mani Padme Hum, it seems Daoist Warren already has a n," Abbot David said, bringing his palms together, though a hint of surprise shed in his eyes.


    "Ha!" Donald scoffed, "Daoist Warren really thinks highly of himself, above the mundane world."


    As they mocked and vented their anger at being rejected by Sky Sect, a Developing Skill master''s expression suddenly changed.


    "Look, that coffin..."


    Everyone looked over. On the silver coffin, under Wesley''s name on the ckwood hit list, it seemed someone was about to add a name—


    Donald. Gary. The fake monk...


    "Om Mani Padme Hum, such trickery, the tactics of heretics," Abbot David squinted at the words ''fake monk,'' his purity disturbed.

    As each name was written on the human skin, a mist gradually formed above it. A bright silver spear appeared, its pressure dispersing the clouds, its de piercing the sky.


    A card, rising from the coffin, grew to the height of a man, its ''B'' glowing brightly. Below in the ck mist, a yin-yang symbol formed, slowly rotating, epassing a ten-mile radius, with five beams of light corresponding to the five elements forming a pentagram in the sky.


    The humanoid ck mist remained silent, the spear tip shing coldly.


    "Whoa!"


    Ethan, with his mastery of the Twin Fish Harmony Seal  and the spell "Heaven and Earth Among Us," could move effortlessly between the two sides of the diagram.


    He had been waiting in front of the screen for this moment!


    In an instant.


    It wasn''t until he took down a Developing Skill with a single shot that the pale blue screen of the game appeared before his eyes.


    [Use Skill—Fight, dear Forebearer!]


    [Detected: You currently possess mid-stage Developing Skill strength, consuming 15,000 Spiritual Tribute points per minute!]


    [Current Spiritual Tribute points—105,200!]


    He drew his Celestial Pivot Psychic Rifle, already vanished from the spot, while the mid-stage Developing Skill Psychic still looked bewildered, incredulously staring at his own abdomen, not understanding why he couldn''t even react before the mysterious figure appeared before him.


    In front of that long rifle shimmering with silver light, he had instantly released a psychic shield, yet it was as flimsy as paper?


    ...


    Instant kill!


    "Truly worthy of the Twin Fish Harmony Seal !"


    Vanishing in an instant, Ethan looked at the Celestial Pivot Psychic Rifle in his hand.


    Only he and the people of ckwood knew that they had already nned everything!


    The n''s visit to the Sky Sect was merely a bait. Ethan and Olivia both understood that ckwood, having developed over ny years to the point of acting recklessly in Cloudview County, even a Competent master wouldn''t allow ckwood to continue existing, eager to eliminate these geniuses swiftly!


    So.


    Only the death coffin came, others had already hidden, and ckwood''s real trump card was Ethan!


    "Phew!"


    In the Yin-Yang fish diagram, he could almost teleport, and in an instant, another Developing Skill master died by Ethan''s Celestial Pivot Psychic Rifle.


    Now, he was no longer the person he used to be.


    These seven years, the people of ckwood had been fugitives, and this time, the twelve massacres at ckwood were also part of the n.


    Apart from avenging the constant pursuit and killing of ckwood, another purpose was to obtain arge amount of elixirs and heavenly materials and treasures!


    So, the people of ckwood sacrificed elixirs and heavenly materials and treasures at the same time.


    It was to give Ethan even greater strength.


    And now.


    Ethan was confident, invincible within Developing Skill!


    Those who pursue the quality of third-grade Developing Skill do so because higher quality Developing Skills grant stronger psychic powers, allowing them to umte more psychic power, making it easier to advance to C-level in the future. And his Developing Skill was top-notch!
