Under Yu Yongge's respectful gaze, Liang Yi took Su Youyi and Xiaobai and stealthily vanished into the distance.
Meanwhile, Purple Cloud Zi Xuan had already begun preparing to use the sect's Secret Technique to contact those Abnormal People, hoping to finish this matter soon so he could consume Elixirs and go into seclusion.
"Yongge..."
As he continuously formed hand seals, spirit lights flickered in the Void, and a disk spun out from Zi Xuan's Storage Ring.
"Disciple is here!"
Yu Yongge, who was still reminiscing about the guidance Liang Yi had given him, was suddenly jolted back to reality and hurriedly responded.
"You go and inform Jiang Fufeng for me, tell him that in the coming days I will be undergoing an important seclusion and thus will not be able to take action on the battlefield. He should consider this when making arrangements."
Zi Xuan, utilizing the mystical disk in his hand, precisely located Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei among other Abnormal People disciples. Streams of divine light surged from the disk, piercing through the Void to convey the message to them, summoning them to come.
"Yes!"
After Yu Yongge responded, he immediately turned and left, heading to the military camp outside the city.
Any cultivator above the Eighth Realm had a mark with Jiang Fufeng. When Abyss Cultivators send out cultivators of a certain Realm, all cultivators above the Eighth Realm had to follow Jiang Fufeng's arrangements. Depending on the situation, Jiang Fufeng would naturally select the most suitable cultivators to fight.
Thus, to avoid Jiang Fufeng being unable to find someone when the time came, Zi Xuan felt it was better to inform him in advance.
On the battlefield, Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei, who were bravely battling enemies, were momentarily stunned. Purple cloud swiftly enveloped them, forcibly pushing away the Abyss Cultivators they were facing. Then, they exchanged glances and quickly activated their Escape Skill to leave the battlefield, finding a secluded place to land.
However, the Abyss Cultivators who had just been fervently fighting Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei were utterly confused, their expressions filled with a touch of surprise and confusion.
This was their first time witnessing these Mystical Abnormal People cultivators actively avoiding battle; usually, they wouldn't leave without dying several times, so why back down so suddenly now?
However, the two Abyss Cultivators didn't think too much about it, considering maybe they just needed to pee?
Immediately, they turned and picked another two Mystical cultivators on the battlefield. With a long blade in hand, they charged straight forward, continuing the fierce battle.
"What's going on? Elder Zi is personally contacting us?"
Bai Xiaomo glanced warily around the desolate surroundings, making sure there were no Abyss Cultivators hidden nearby preparing for a sneak attack, before he asked Ju Xiaobei in confusion.
"How would I know? Whenever I privately messaged Elder Zi in the past trying to have a chat to increase intimacy, all he replied with was a 'hehe'."
Ju Xiaobei looked at the NPC friend panel, which was flashing with Elder Zi's portrait, also full of confusion.
Could it be that the old man was moved by his sincerity and now willing to chat online with him, a young man?
"Damn, a hidden mission delivered to our doorstep!"
Bai Xiaomo was stunned as soon as he opened the message. The silvery mission prompt indicated that they had triggered a hidden mission.
"The Sect Master collaborating with Shadow to pick the best disciples to join Shadow?"
Bai Xiaomo carefully read through the task.
"And to learn a mysterious Cultivation Technique, and... to go to the Abyss!?"
Ju Xiaobei's voice twisted as he exclaimed in shock.
"Is this... the opening of a new map?"
Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei turned to each other, both seeing the same shock in each other's eyes.
Although there had been speculations on the forum before that the other side, the Abyss, was also a world, they had not expected it to be triggered in this manner.
"Purple Cloud Sect's prestige is immense!"
Bai Xiaomo couldn't help but exclaim.
Even the Super Forces had not received any messages regarding cross-map missions; the task in their hands must be the first one.
And the reason why they, Bai Xiaomo and Ju Xiaobei, could unexpectedly trigger this hidden task, they both had a guess in their hearts.
In terms of contributions to the sect, the two of them were among the highest of all Purple Cloud Sect players and were also currently making a push towards becoming True Disciples. Given the current speed of the task, they would meet the requirements for advancing from the Inner Sect to True Disciple in less than a month.
Currently, Purple Cloud Sect had only one True Disciple, a 70-level NPC named Yu Yongge, with other positions still vacant. Hence, they didn't need to challenge any True Disciples as in other sects, which would definitely be hopeless otherwise.
Thus, if Zi Xuan was considering contributions to the sect, it was only natural that the two of them would receive the task.
"Let's go, head back and see."
Having received the task, the two wasted no time, promptly putting away their weapons and withdrawing from the battlefield, heading to the sect headquarters in Abyss Battle City.
The same scene also unfolded for several other Purple Cloud Sect players; whatever they were doing, they now all dropped and rushed to where Zi Xuan was located.
"Hmm? Has Yue Bai already ended his seclusion?"
In Abyss Battle City, just as Liang Yi stepped out of the Purple Cloud Sect's residence, he suddenly paused, receiving a message from Yue Bai.
It turned out that Yue Bai had ended his seclusion when they came out, and finding no one at home, he was somewhat puzzled.
