Misty Mountains’ Knights of the Mist for instance, after experiencing the Third Spiritual Energy Tide, all six Knights had reached Tier-3. Among them, Ah Long and Liu Zi Yan, these two geniuses had stepped into the Realm of Sovereign, just one step away from becoming Emperors of the World.

As a matter of fact, Tier-3 Transcedents were still quite formidable on the continent. Even after the Third Spiritual Energy Tide, Tier-3 Transcendents were still considered powerful in their own right. Among them, those in the Realm of Sovereign or Emperor of the World had enough power to be rulers of a piece of land.

As for Tier-4 Transcendents, only a dozen individuals were known to have advanced to Tier-4. Even if there were many hidden, there would still be 30-40 Tier-4s at most. And among them, most of these were the Mutant Beasts of Misty Mountains.

Considering that only a handful had reached Tier-4 compared to hundreds of billions living on the continent, it was clear what Tier-4 Transcendents signified.

With one Tier-4 born in a billion, it was truly a pinnacle in every sense. Each one is like a Natural Disaster, capable of turning an area into their domain.

As for whether the continent had billions of living beings on it, it was quite evident. The Human Race alone numbered in hundreds of millions, and considering Ants, Rats, Pigs, and other races that excelled in numbers, billions might still be an understatement.

Anyway, it was all good. The current continent could sustain these many living beings.

…

Currently, Yu Zi Yu was not sure of the exact number of Tier-4s on the continent. Still, it would not be too many; not every Human or Mutant Beast gets to enjoy Yu Zi Yu’s Life Essence for the long-term.

Heaven and Earth Treasures like his Life Essence, though do not significantly boost the combat power of Misty Mountains’ Mutant Beasts, they were invaluable in healing their hidden injuries and for tempering their bodies. All of this was especially crucial when facing Tribulation Clouds. They often act as a huge support.

Many Transcendents fall under the Tribulation due to hidden injuries surfacing during the ordeal, leading to a decline in their condition and ultimately perishing under the Lightning Tribulation.

Misty Mountains were not aware of this. Rather, they did not experience this.

However, if one looked outside the continent, they would witness many powerful Transcendents perishing under the endless Tribulation Clouds. Even the most famous prodigy in China got reduced to ashes when breaking through to Tier-4 Transcendent.

This was the true Lightning Tribulation, with only one in ten surviving.

As for Misty Mountains’ Mutant Beast, they were the exceptions. Firstly, Yu Zi Yu had nurtured their bodies over a long period of time. While it might not show in day to day life, it played a crucial role in key moments.

His Life Essence, reaching Tier-4 and even Tier-5, was a Supreme Treasure. Yet the Mutant Beasts of Misty Mountains treated his Life Essence like water, which naturally helped them immensely.

Secondly, every single Mutant Beast of Misty Mountains that had broken through to Tier-4, were descendants of terrifying species, such as Flood Dragon, Elementals, and even Celestial Foxes, Giant Dragons, and Enlightened Divine Monkey.

If they couldn’t pass their Lightning Tribulations, there would be no justice in the world.

Powerful species were strong for a reason. Their ability to cross Tribulations gave a glimpse into their overall strength.

*Haaa…* Exhaling a long, deep breath, Yu Zi Yu glanced at the six Knights meditating under his main body and responded calmly, “On this trip, I will take the six Knights with me. Although their Talent is not the most outstanding, their willpower is exceptional and worth nurturing. Next, from the 108 Generals, I will take Dream Beast and Rainbow Deer. Among the 108 Generals, their Innate Talents are the most remarkable. They’ve managed to comprehend the Spirit Leaves I’ve bestowed upon them.”

After pondering for a moment, Yu Zi Yu glanced at the various Clan Leaders and added, “All major Clan Leaders will also be coming with me. Each of them will be allowed to choose a hundred members. Whereas the strongest three Clans can decide their numbers freely…”

Listening calmly to Yu Zi Yu’s explanation, Ling Er understood his plan.

[As expected, he’s now focusing on cultivating the true elites.] Smiling in her heart, Ling Er looked at Yu Zi Yu with a hint of admiration.

Although she could not guess what her Master was planning, she felt that his ambitions were far beyond what people imagined.

…

Time quickly passed by. It was already dusk…

Not long after, Ling Er, sitting sideways on White Elephant, which appeared as if it was carved from white jade, slowly headed out of Misty Mountains.

Having reached Tier-4, a new world had opened up for her.

The rest of the journey was hers alone. She couldn’t promise much, but she promised herself that when her Master returned to this continent, he would see everything he wanted.

*Crack…* Clenching her fist, Ling Er’s eyes flickered with an unspoken determination and coldness. [It was about time to confront the Humans.]

…

Shortly after Ling Er left, a thunderous Tiger Roar suddenly echoed in the depths of Misty Mountains.

Immediately after, the entire Misty Mountain began to operate methodically, like a machine.

*Thump, thump, thump…* One by one, Mutant Beast gathered from all directions of Misty Mountains. Their eyes were resolute and fiery, and their faces were gleaming with excitement, simply because they were the chosen ones.

*Roar, roar, roar…* Amid countless beastly roars and howls, innumerable Mutant Beast began to run, their target: the five enormous vortices swirling in the sky.

The vortices varied in color. One of them happened to be bright red and burning with flames. One could also see a red continent at the other end of the vortex.

This was Yu Zi Yu’s Pocket of Flame of the Nine Realms of Heaven.

Now, all seven Space Pockets had expanded to tens of thousands of meters.

After fully absorbing the essence of Jianmu, these spaces had grown several times larger. Additionally, these spaces had gained new abilities as they expanded.

For example, the power of each Space Pocket could now flow into another.

In the Pocket of Space, Yu Zi Yu used the power of the Pocket of Earth to create a vast continent, and the Pocket of Light’s power to create a Sthat rose and set in the sky.

Calling it a Sun might be an exaggeration, but it surpassed artificial Suns made by Humans by far.

Aside from the Pocket of Space, the next vertices lined up in order at 100 meters were the Pocket of Ice, Pocket of Earth, Pocket of Light, and Pocket of Lightning respectively.

The Pocket of Earth was the most suitable for living, with its warm winters and cool summers, it had the ideal climate. It even had fields of Spirit Herbs and Flowers growing.

Whereas other Space Pockets were somewhat affected by their overwhelming attributes.

However, for Fire-Attributed Mutant Beasts, the Pocket of Flame was undoubtedly perfect.

Currently, these five Space Pockets stood like celestial gates, silently awaiting, as if welcoming.
