In every instance when the need for slaves arises, the organization known as Perfect World, which carries the totem of the character "Shu," has been able to recruit people from Earth. Throughout history, Earth has faced countless fates of being summoned by Shu, with groups of individuals taking up the Shu totem to serve its cause.
These organizations have had many names; during the Dinosaur Era, they were called the Wilderness, while in the Elemental Era, they were known as Fate. Today, it is Perfect World that bears the banner of Shu. The existence of this organization is to unlock the Prehistoric Ruins and facilitate communication between the Low-Level Plane and the Low-Level Dimension, thereby taking away all those on Earth who can assist them, serving as cannon fodder.
This is the ultimate mission of the organization that upholds the Shu banner. The long-standing war between the realms of immortals and demons has never ceased. Perhaps this is how the powerful Low-Level Plane consumes an ever-increasing population. Regardless, whether it is good or bad, the emergence of Perfect World signifies that war between the two realms is about to begin again. At this moment, Xiao Yefeng connects all the dots; he understands why his father was killed and why Perfect World appears intermittently, especially now with their high-profile reemergence. Clearly, there is a renewed demand for Earthlings.
The fate of Earth lies entirely in Brother Bai's hands. Since Earth is a gathering place for slaves of Shu, what role does Brother Bai play? Qing's sharp intellect leads her to ask this crucial question just as Xiao Yefeng begins to recount everything.
Not only is Qing curious, but so is Xiao Yefeng. Fortunately, Brother Bai shares everything with Xiao Yefeng. Soon enough, memories resurface regarding all information about the Guardians. It turns out that Shu does not stand alone; wherever there are people, there will be war. The immortal realm has always suppressed the demon realm, so it cannot be solely reliant on Shu's power. Other factions within the immortal realm possess strength comparable to that of Shu.
However, Brother Bai, as an Inspector, is not a member of any particular faction but rather part of an enforcement agency under the immortal realm. The immortal realm is a Low-Level Plane that commands numerous Low-Level Dimensions; however, adhering to the principle of survival of the fittest necessitates allowing Low-Level Dimensions their own space for development. If they are continually suppressed by the Low-Level Plane, they will ultimately lose their capacity for life and reproduction, becoming a dead Dimension.
Thus, an enforcement agency was established by the immortal realm to oversee the growth of Low-Level Dimensions while permitting recruitment from these dimensions to combat against the demon realm since it remains their greatest enemy.
Brother Bai represents this agency and has been responsible for overseeing Earth since the Elemental Era. The principle of Dao states that while there must be a balance left for Low-Level Dimensions to thrive, each generation produces a Guardian. The emergence of Guardians coincides with times leading up to major conflicts between immortals and demons. If a Low-Level Dimension wishes to break free from recruitment by the immortal realm, it must rely on its Guardians to resist Shu's influence on Earth.
If Guardians succeed in their mission, then congratulations are in order for this era; they will no longer have to sacrifice their lives as stepping stones in the battle between immortals and demons. Since Brother Bai began his oversight of Earth, there has only been one successful avoidance of a conflict between immortals and demons—though that conflict was merely a minor skirmish and did not warrant much attention regarding recruitment from Earth. Nevertheless, what cannot be erased is that it was indeed a victory for the Guardians!
Now comes another battle led by the previous generation's Guardian against Perfect World—a battle spearheaded by Qing's father, known as Eastern Sovereign Yu in Master’s words—the only one who ever defeated Master himself. It was due to his victory that Perfect World vanished for several decades.
However, this time around, sparks have ignited from previous skirmishes between immortals and demons. Shu has issued orders to Perfect World's Master to convert as many inhabitants of Earth into warriors as possible and activate communication altars in preparation for recruitment from the immortal realm. Undoubtedly, everyone present now fully comprehends Perfect World's recent anomalies. At this moment, holding onto Yan Zi's map and gripping Spirit Binding Silver Nail tightly, Qing cannot help but feel a surge of anxiety.
To unlock the Ancient Ruins, the map in hand and the Spirit Binding Silver Nail are the keys. At this moment, Qing looked at Xiao Yefeng, who held the last piece of the map. Aside from the yet-to-be-identified thief of the Heart of Civilization, all seven items had already appeared. The strength of the Master from Perfect World was unmatched. Qing, the daughter of the previous Guardian, felt a sense of helplessness due to her brother's abduction.
Her gaze towards Xiao Yefeng was filled with longing, for his identity was now well-known. This generation's Guardian was destined to be the leader at this critical juncture; the fate of Earth rested solely on Xiao Yefeng's shoulders.
Feeling the weight of everyone's eyes upon him, Xiao Yefeng sensed immense pressure. While others were unaware, he knew that Earth had no second chance. If this forced recruitment succeeded, the last source of life on Earth would completely vanish, leading to a world where life could no longer be born. This was Earth's final struggle; success would usher it into a new developmental cycle, while failure would plunge it into ultimate darkness.
The path and choices lay in Xiao Yefeng's hands. The Master's overwhelming power filled him with despair; even his strongest Qian Kun Jue combined with the Yin-Yang Sword could not harm the Master. If it couldn't work this time, would a miracle occur next time? Xiao Yefeng had never considered that Earth's fate rested in his hands and what he should do about it. However, a glimmer of reassurance came from the internal map held by both him and Qing. This map was the core layout of the Prehistoric Ruins, and Xiao Yefeng believed that even the Master would meet his end if he recklessly ventured inside without this map. Without it, he was confident that the Master could not activate the altar.
Yet at this moment, a twinge of worry arose within Xiao Yefeng. If he pushed the Master too hard, manipulating lives to fill these traps, then everything would be in vain. Everything depended on the four sacred artifacts; without them, activating the altar would be impossible. Without the Dragon Pearl in his hand as an energy source, he could not summon Low-Level Dimension to Low-Level Plane. For now, control still lay with Xiao Yefeng.
However, despite this control, Xiao Yefeng could not guarantee safety. This time everyone had joined forces, and with Brother Bai's presence as an Inspector intimidating enough to deter the Master, what would happen next time without such support? Would he still be able to protect the Dragon Pearl?
The Dragon Pearl could not remain with him; it seemed that Pangu's task of worshipping needed to be completed quickly. If he delivered the Dragon Pearl somewhere safe, perhaps he could avoid being tracked by the Master!
As Xiao Yefeng pondered these matters, unbeknownst to him deep in the ocean, Jack's body was connected to numerous instruments. A helmet filled with wires was placed on Jack's head while he convulsed continuously; computers were rapidly printing out stacks of data.
"These are trivial matters; turn up the instruments to maximum!" said a man in a white coat wearing a metal headband embedded with sapphires.
"My lord, that will damage his nerves; once we get the data back, he'll likely be left brain-dead!" replied a young man.
"Slap!" A loud slap struck the young man's face, causing his head to spin around completely on his neck with a cracking sound echoing through the air—clearly indicating that he was dead beyond recovery!
With the young man's corpse hitting the ground, no one dared voice any further doubts. The man with the metal headband declared coldly, "This is what happens when you don't follow my orders! Turn it up to maximum!"
As soon as the words fell, trembling hands adjusted the instruments to their maximum settings. In an instant, Jie stumbled, foam spilling from his mouth as he collapsed to the side. The computer printed out two memory patterns that were vastly different in their dimensions.
"Great! Send the map to Master!" The man turned and left, leaving behind a group of people who were all trembling with fear. One man, drenched in sweat, shook his damp pants before grabbing the map and rushing toward Master's room. The terrified crowd paid no attention to the young man who had already died; such occurrences were all too common here. Before long, a team of Gene Warriors arrived to drag the body away.
In a corner, unnoticed, a short-haired girl was desperately covering her mouth and nose. Her Apricot Eyes were filled with tears. She wanted to cry out loud but dared not do so; if anyone discovered her connection to him, she might be the next inexplicably missing person.
Suppressing her grief, she bit her lip and swallowed her tears. After tidying up the materials in front of her, she steeled herself and turned back to work. Before her lay hundreds of vials containing potions of various colors. Her responsibility was to record the effects of these potions and submit them to her superiors. However, no one knew that every drop of potion she tested was carefully collected and meticulously documented in her personal notebook.
Meanwhile, in Huaxia, Xiao Yefeng had gathered his emotions and returned to the Liu Family, where his loved ones awaited him. He hurried home but was shocked to find that he had been delayed for an entire week.
The Liu Family remained warm and welcoming, yet Xiao Yefeng noticed a hint of sadness in both Liu Yiyi and Liu Qing, as well as in Mu Ding. During dinner, Xiao Yefeng asked, "Yiyi, what's wrong? Is there something troubling you at work?"
"Brother Feng! There's a big problem! The Liu Family, no! Not just the Liu Family, but the entire pharmaceutical industry in Huaxia has come to a standstill. Countless banned drugs have surfaced. Our collaboration with the Mei Family has been completely shut down, and Mei Mo'er has already been taken away by military personnel. It seems that the Mei Family developed the Gene Serum without authorization and included banned substances. The military has issued a top-level investigation order, and various pharmaceutical companies are also under scrutiny. Since yesterday, Huaxia has arrested over a dozen heads of leading pharmaceutical companies," Liu Yiyi said anxiously.
