The Seventh Base

Chapter 75: Taking Action



The attitude of the Mystic God Temple headquarters towards the conflict between Willton's Divine Temple and Chloe's Temple is quite subtle, essentially an implicit acceptance.

Moreover, the elders of the two major temples have also not intervened, clearly adopting a laissez-faire attitude.

This kind of conflict is essentially a form of competition, unlikely to escalate much. Although those involved are fighting, no one dares to actually cause harm. They strike with restraint, and given the recovery abilities here, injuries usually heal quickly.

Xu Mo received news from Augustus that Willton's Divine Temple does not plan to actively resolve this matter, adopting a nonchalant attitude.

It's as if they're saying, do as you wish.

Additionally, the Transcendents of Willton's Divine Temple remain active, even those who previously participated in the conflict are still active in the Trial Ground.

Furthermore, the 'senior brothers' at Chloe Star's Temple also don't seem inclined to participate, leaving Augustus somewhat displeased, as this issue isn't personal but involves the two major temples.

However, the 'senior brothers' believe that Willton's Divine Temple is actually targeting Xu Mo, wanting to force him to act, thus avoiding involvement in this pointless fight.

Aside from this, whether their reluctance to participate is due to Xu Mo's influence remains unknown. Since their arrival, when talking about Chloe Star's Temple, all the focus has been on Xu Mo and Zero, leaving these 'elders' with little presence.

It's as if Xu Mo represents Chloe Star's Temple.

If Xu Mo represents Chloe Star's Temple, should he resolve this conflict on his own?

After speaking with Augustus, Xu Mo vaguely guessed some of the possible thoughts of those 'senior brothers'. If so, it does seem a bit petty.

Regardless of the reason, he now faces the reality that this issue is a fait accompli. Without help, how are they going to turn the situation around?

The 'senior brothers' here do not plan to help, but on the other hand, people at Willton's Divine Temple are very united. Previously, many 'elders' participated, including the foremost figure at Willton's Divine Temple, whose combat power is exceptionally formidable.

Some have even approached the Skywalker Realm.

In such circumstances, what can they do?

Xu Mo dialed Lowell's communicator number.

"Senior Brother Xu Mo." Lowell answered, his voice slightly somber, different from usual.

"Junior Brother, how come you're planning to handle it on your own?" Xu Mo asked.

Lowell entered after Charles; Charles's actions were somewhat intimidating, coupled with the targeting from Willton's Divine Temple, it's impossible for Chloe Star's Temple to have any advantage.

"Senior Brother, you found out?" Lowell asked, "Unable to match the others, I can only cultivate harder to improve myself."

"It's not about being unable to match. Charles started cultivating a year before you, but the gap isn't very large. If he waited a year, he wouldn't be your opponent." Xu Mo said, "Consider my case with Charles. How do we compare?"

"He certainly doesn't measure up to you, Senior Brother." Lowell said. Despite losing to Charles, Charles's victory wasn't easy.

Against Xu Mo, he stood no chance, usually getting defeated instantly. The gap was too pronounced.

"Knowing this, why didn't you call me?" Xu Mo asked, noting Lowell's somewhat stubborn character.

Being bullied and not knowing to seek help.

Lowell didn't respond; seeking Xu Mo's help when unable to match the skill felt somewhat disgraceful to him.

"This matter isn't only yours anymore. It's primarily to target me, resulting in our entire Chloe Star Temple losing face." Xu Mo said, "Thus, we have to regain it."

"Senior Brother, how do you plan to proceed? I'll follow your arrangements." Lowell considered before speaking. He knew that Chloe Star's Temple was being bullied now.

Previously, Xu Mo didn't want to act; it was his personal choice, indifferent to external chatter.

But now, the situation has changed.

"Come over, I've called Zero and Augustus." Xu Mo said.

"Okay," Lowell nodded.

After hanging up the communicator, Xu Mo left the room.

...

The Mystic God Temple headquarters has an outdoor battlefield covering a vast area, attracting many people daily for practical combat practice. Virtual World battles are ultimately unreal; sparring against opponents of the same level provides intense and thrilling battle experience.

At this moment, many people are present, with numerous battlefields erupting with fights simultaneously.

In one area, a large crowd has gathered, witnessing the most intense battles, where everyone is striking fiercely.

"Bang."

A loud noise echoed, and a cultivator's skeleton seemed to shatter, their arm in severe pain, unmistakably a member of Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple.

Ever since the collective conflict erupted, clashes between the two Mystic God Temples have been frequent. This isn't the first time, but Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple has consistently suffered losses due to a lack of unity compared to Willton's Divine Temple.

"I heard the people from Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple have no plans to interfere with this matter?" Many people around were discussing, with someone well-informed asking.

"It seems so. Look, there are people from Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple over there, and they don't intend to get involved," someone said, glancing at a position and laughing.

"It appears they're planning to let Xu Mo handle it himself."

Xu Mo, afraid he can't avoid it, if he continues to hide and not step forward, it would be somewhat unacceptable.

"It's just that, without the help of the previous generations, relying on Xu Mo and a few others alone, it might be a case of having the will but lacking the strength," someone said softly. Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple isn't united, but Willton's Divine Temple is huddling together for warmth.

In this situation, Xu Mo and the others have to face more than just their own cohort, but also many top-tier Transcendents from above. Even with the addition of Zero, it might still not be enough.

Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple has a few extremely powerful figures, even close to the Great Practitioner level of the Skywalker Realm. After all, this time, the critical figures from the major Mystic God Temples have all come.

At this moment, the gazes of these people were directed towards a spot where a group was standing, watching the battlefield from afar.

This group was none other than the cultivators from Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple.

"Are we being too narrow-minded doing this?" someone said, looking towards the battlefield.

There might be competitive relationships in the Mystic God Temple, but here, folks from Chloe Star should be banding together, as they're practically family.

But now, they're isolating Xu Mo and his group, and some feel it's inappropriate.

"Xu Mo and his group overturned the history of the Ten Temple Alliance. Everyone's eyes are on them, whether it's Willton's Divine Temple or other Mystic God Temples, waiting for Xu Mo and his group to act. Maybe even the elders of the Mystic God Temple are watching, so why should we bother joining the fun," someone calmly said, looking ahead, "Some people are born as protagonists, and since we're not in that position right now, let's just watch."

No one around said much as the person continued, "Of course, if Xu Mo ultimately avoids coming out, then he wouldn't deserve to stand in that position."

The person who spoke earlier revealed a hint of an unusual expression, so is this a test for Xu Mo?

Indeed, tremendous pressure is on Xu Mo and his group, and they're facing the entire Willton's Divine Temple.

At this moment, a commotion arose in the distance, and many people voiced, even actively making way, as several people approached in that direction, led by none other than Xu Mo.

Xu Mo, Zero, Augustus, Lowell, Hudson.

This group had good relations and formed a small alliance.

Xu Mo and his group headed straight towards a battlefield, the very location where the Mystic God Temple's member was injured.

As Xu Mo and his group approached, several other cultivators from Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple began to gather towards their direction, forming an unconscious momentum behind them.

"Are you okay?" Xu Mo asked, standing before the injured Transcendent.

"It's nothing, I'll be fine soon," the person replied.

Xu Mo nodded, looked up at the figure on the battlefield ahead, and said, "Hudson, are you going?"

"No problem," Hudson nodded, stepping forward.

"Don't hold back," Xu Mo added.

"Rest assured," Hudson replied, his back to Xu Mo. His strides were steady and quickening; in a flash, his body transformed into a dazzling Energy Light, charging forward. Energy Aura swirled around him, arriving before the opponent in an instant.

"Boom..."

A domineering sound echoed as Hudson, with terrifying speed, directly collided with the opponent. The tremendous power seemed to penetrate the opponent's body, causing their bones to shatter and their body to be knocked far away, then smashed to the ground.

This scene drew people towards the battlefield, their eyes showing a hint of interest.

Xu Mo, finally stepped forward.

It seems a battle is inevitable.

However, with many from Chloe Star's Mystic God Temple not intending to intervene, relying solely on Xu Mo and his group to deal with Willton's Divine Temple, there might be a backlash.

Indeed, as soon as that person was injured, people from Willton's Divine Temple began to gather from different directions, moving towards that spot, forming a momentum as well.

Is another group battle about to erupt today?
