I picked up the scattered attributes

In the end, apart from occasionally being bumped into by pedestrians, they tried everything but could not interfere with the outside world!

Dead silence.

Deathly silence.

The disbelief on the faces of the group gradually turned into fear.

Long before they signed the death waiver and chose to go to the Western Regions, this group of people had already prepared for death.

However, they did not die in the place where they should have died the most.

They returned to their homeland alive.

But here they became ghosts, a group of living ghosts!

It can only watch everything around it helplessly, unable to have any impact on its surroundings. Except for the occasional bump into, it can no longer be perceived by anyone.

A group of ghosts who have returned to their homeland.

This treatment is even more cruel than death.

"It was the Imperial Preceptor Xuanwu! It must have been the Imperial Preceptor Xuanwu who did this!"

"He must have tampered with us when he sent us back to the Eastern Emperor Continent!"

Suddenly, someone jolted awake and growled in a hoarse voice, "He must have done something to us to put us in this strange state. But it's alright, we'll go to the ASEAN base; there will definitely be someone there who can help us!"

ASEAN Base!

Upon hearing these words, hope rekindled in the eyes of the group of assassins.

In their view, the fact that they had survived the siege of Xuanwu Kingdom for ten years meant that there must be a top expert in ASEAN who could break their predicament!

"That's right, the base in ASEAN!"

"We don't have much time, we need to get there now!"

They soon set off again, traversing mountains and valleys, passing through many hidden realms, and finally, after a few days, arrived at an inconspicuous little mountain village.

The small mountain village is quite remote, with only a few wisps of smoke rising from the chimneys, proving that there are still people living here.

"We've arrived! As long as we wait until midnight and enter through the back door of the sixth house in the village, we can truly enter the ASEAN base!"

For most people, that moment is fleeting.

However, given their level of cultivation, grasping this was not a difficult task.

Time passed by, one breath at a time.

A group of people patiently waited until midnight, when the last lights in the village went out and all the villagers had gone to bed. Although the entrance to the ASEAN base was here, this village was indeed just an ordinary small mountain village.

"Sooner or later, those invaders from Xuanwu Kingdom will get what they deserve!"

In the silence, someone suddenly spoke in a low voice: "Our homeland will not tolerate any invaders. Since they dare to come, they will have to pay the price in blood!"

I had heard similar words countless times before joining ASEAN.

The Holy National Preceptor of Xuanwu Kingdom did not have a very good reputation in the Eastern Emperor Continent.

Among the majority of people, he is often referred to as the great demon king from the Western Regions, and the peerless evil god of the demon land!

Xuanwu Kingdom is a barbarian kingdom located in the northwest, and Emperor Mo Lianque of Xuanwu is naturally the local emperor of a group of barbarians. The Holy National Preceptor of Xuanwu Kingdom is the demon king standing behind this group of barbarians.

"However, the people there didn't seem to say that when we were in the Western Regions."

Suddenly, one of the younger assassins hesitated for a moment before saying hesitantly, "They say that the Western Regions are the center of the world, the homeland of all races, while the various races of the Eastern Emperor Continent are actually a group of people who escaped from the Western Regions back then..."

"fart!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

The young man's words immediately drew a lot of rebukes.

The older assassins, their hair standing on end in fury, glared at the young man: "How could you believe such ridiculous and manipulative talk?"

"Do they deserve to be at the center of the world?"

"If it weren't for the compassion of the various lords of the Eastern Emperor back then, who spared the lives of the demons of the Western Regions, how could they have everything they have today?"

"It's one thing to be ungrateful, but now they're even turning around and blaming us!"

"Number 19, the situation is extremely serious right now. If you dare to spout nonsense here again, don't blame us for executing you on the spot!"

He became a martyr for ASEAN, and his name was the first thing to be discarded.

All that can represent each person is a number.

Number Nineteen was very young, but his family had died early, and his Daoist partner had died in the great war with Xuanwu Kingdom. This eventually made him want to die and choose to become a member of the Eastern Alliance's suicide squad.

His desire for revenge was the strongest, yet at this moment, he was the first to waver.

"I..." Faced with the crowd's rebukes, the young man opened his mouth, but after a long pause, he stammered out a few words, "I was just saying it casually, you don't need to take it so seriously..."

"It's precisely because we knew you were just saying it casually that no one took it seriously!"

"If you had taken that seriously, you would be dead by now!"

But in an instant, the atmosphere fell silent again.

Everyone waited in silence, as if what had just happened was merely a minor incident that could not ease the increasingly tense atmosphere.

Suddenly, someone perked up: "Time's up!"

They immediately took to the air and headed straight for the back door of the sixth house in the village!

shhhhh--

At other times, it was just an ordinary portal, but at the moment midnight arrived, a mysterious passage was opened, connecting to another different world!

After a dizzying spin, the group finally found their footing.

We've arrived at the ASEAN base, Dongtianjing.

"Let's go, don't waste time, go and seek an audience with the esteemed officials immediately!"

……

Chapter 0755

Eastern Heaven Realm.

According to the founders of ASEAN, the name was derived from "Eastern Emperor's Heaven and Earth, the Ultimate Pure Land," meaning that they wanted to preserve the last inch of pure land for the Eastern Wilderness Continent, which had been invaded by the Western Regions!

Every ASEAN member firmly believes in the origin of the name "Dongtianjing".

Stepping back onto the land of the Eastern Heaven Realm, the group felt as if they had been transported to another world. However, they quickly composed themselves and prepared to head to the center of the Eastern Heaven Realm.

The founders lived in the heart of Dongtianjing.

"As long as those esteemed officials intervene, they will surely find a solution!"

Before they could even get excited, alarm bells suddenly rang from all directions, and killing formations rapidly revived from their silence, unleashing terrifying power and surging spiritual light that completely enveloped their position!

"An enemy has invaded the Eastern Heavenly Realm—"

"They have unmarked identification tags. Everyone be on high alert and don't let them get away!"

The Eastern Heaven Realm may seem like a secret realm, but in reality, it is a rather miraculous treasure. It can be used to kill enemies, or to instantly transport everyone inside to another place.

For more than a decade, ASEAN has relied on this secret weapon to escape the encirclement and suppression of Xuanwu Kingdom time and time again.

Occasionally, someone manages to infiltrate the interior, but they are instantly annihilated without a trace!

The scene before them was one that all the assassins had witnessed before!

"No...something's not right! Why are our identification tags malfunctioning?"

While desperately avoiding the killing intent of the formation, Number Nineteen's young face showed intense disbelief as he exclaimed, "Didn't we agree that even if we all died, our identity markers would be preserved to commemorate all our sacrifices?"

"Is there some mistake?"

This promise is of no practical use and will not even be made public after my death.

But for these people who were going to their deaths, this was already one of the few remaining thoughts they had.

But at that very moment, their hopes were cruelly shattered.

How long have they been away from the Eastern Wilderness Continent?

The markings on the identity badge had been completely removed!

"Something's not right! There must be some mistake!"

The others also shouted, exerting all their strength to escape the formation's attack range: "Let's go see the esteemed officials!"

"These formations are just reacting instinctively; they haven't detected our presence!"

"Let's go find those officials now. They can definitely resolve our predicament and give us justice!"

After unleashing the first attack, the killing formation of the Eastern Heaven Realm froze in place.

It was clear that the initial attack was purely a response to the intrusion of outsiders, and after that attack, they could no longer pinpoint the location of Number Nineteen and his companions.

Number Nineteen and the others witnessed this scene, and while they breathed a slight sigh of relief, their hearts also grew somewhat heavy.

The array formations of the Eastern Heaven Realm are undoubtedly the most powerful weapons in the entire Eastern Heaven Realm.

But now it seems that even with these killing formations reviving, they still cannot detect their existence!
