Chapter 1170 - 1270: Action and Thunder Eye

After Wall Guardian Elder saw the Sect Leader nodding toward her.

Wall Guardian Elder immediately began, forming a Spell with his hands.

The reason Wall Guardian Elder formed a Spell with his hands was that he understood the Sect Leader's intention.

The Sect Leader's intention was to let him open the gate leading outside the walls, where they would reclaim the resources they gained before.

Reclaiming, in essence, meant that they would transport those resources back slowly while Thunder Eye wasn't paying attention, since they were obtained through great sacrifice and loss.

If solely relying on Wall Guardian Elder to slowly move the walls, it would take hundreds of years to reclaim the resources they obtained before. Moreover, during this time, no one could guarantee that Thunder Eye would not attack the Array.

After all, the Power of Heaven and Earth outside the walls left everyone bewildered, as no one had any experience dealing with it because opposing the Power of Heaven and Earth nearly always led to doom.

Furthermore, within the walls, everyone complies with the Power of Heaven and Earth, even those from the demonic path respect it.

Few would battle against the Power of Heaven and Earth, given that whether they win or lose, it would only be detrimental, offering no advantage.

It is often said that going against heaven is essentially following it in disguise, since truly opposing heaven would result in the Power of Heaven and Earth appearing at the moment of defiance.

Then, the Power of Heaven and Earth would eliminate you because defying heaven is defying it, and to deal with such rebellion, it would appear forcefully and finish you off.

The Power of Heaven and Earth lacks any consciousness; it does not know mercy nor hesitates before exhibiting its might; once it appears, it's divine retribution, indiscriminately severe, without any plea for leniency.

Once Wall Guardian Elder completed the Spell, the gate leading outside the walls began to open slowly, just like the last time they opened it.

Everyone saw the gate opening, feeling very complex emotions—not as ecstatic as last time, but rather, some even felt a faint rejection. This was unavoidable since they had suffered heavy losses of people and comrades when the gate opened last time.

Although there's a subtle sense of rejection in their hearts, they must still venture outside the walls, as there are resources they obtained at the cost of blood and tears they need to retrieve. Otherwise, everyone would harbor deep-seated discontent, though none openly claim dissatisfaction, it's very prevalent internally.

They sacrificed too much, and no one can easily let go under such circumstances. Even if some claim they've moved on, it's nonsense said just to cease ruminating over the matter, for although not everyone's shame, it's pretty close, truly distressing everyone involved.

The inside wall's Power of Heaven and Earth's inaction made the outside wall's Power of Heaven and Earth more reckless, truly like the elders of those outside wall creatures, since attacking the younger brings forth the elder, an accurate portrayal of the outside wall's Power of Heaven and Earth.

Despite being heavily oppressed, nearly facing extinction, the inside wall's Power of Heaven and Earth did not emerge to help, not even during the last major monster crisis.

Moreover, the monster crisis was caused by external reasons, yet the inside wall's Power of Heaven and Earth did not appear, illustrating its profound inaction.

Many are questioning what the inside wall's Power of Heaven and Earth is doing or what its purpose is?

Historically, no one has mentioned harnessing the Power of Heaven and Earth nor seen it, only experiencing divine retribution.

People cannot perceive any relationship between divine retribution and the Power of Heaven and Earth, considering the task of sensing it is too early for them.

Looking at the already opened gate leading outside the walls, they all sighed deeply, seemingly facing another encounter, and this time they need to be very swift.

Fortuitously, they won't face those outside wall creatures or the Power of Heaven and Earth outside, otherwise, none would be willing to venture outside.

However, whether they really won't face the Power of Heaven and Earth outside remains undecided, as Thunder Eye hasn't revealed itself. When Thunder Eye emerges, they'll surely retreat inside the walls, then wait for Thunder Eye to dissipate before heading outside again. Provided Thunder Eye doesn't shatter their Big Ben, otherwise, regardless of their quick actions, if Big Ben is destroyed, nothing would work, can they be faster than time? Can they revert back in time to transport everything inside Big Ben back?

Moreover, if someone possesses the Power of Time, they would be stronger than any resource gained outside the walls, as the Power of Time allows one to swim freely in the River of Destiny, unrestrained by anyone.

The gate leading outside the walls has already been opened; the first to step out was not the Sect Leader, because the Sect Leader felt that Thunder Eye was somewhat connected to him, especially since Thunder Eye seemed aimed at people like Sect Leader who caused significant killings outside the walls and settled notable outside creatures.

Otherwise, why would the Power of Heaven and Earth outside target him? Moreover, it doesn't solely target Sect Leader—the Sect Leader also found it targeting each strong individual in the teams.

Previously, Sect Leader was targeted because he defeated a particularly strong outside wall creature, and this feeling arose because during the initial lightning strikes, Sect Leader didn't feel it was striking anyone else; it was solely focused on him.

Later, while Sect Leader was covering the retreat of others, urging them to leave the outside walls quickly, he sensed that the Sect Leaders accompanying him had also been targeted by the lightning overhead.

So the Sect Leader believes that these lightning strikes target those who caused killings outside the walls, although Sect Leader also didn't know how many outside creatures the accompanying Sect Leaders had killed?

But Sect Leader thinks it should not be a small number.
