Then, Ye Luo took out a large bottle and gulped down some Essence of the Spirit Pond!

This thing works extremely fast for restoring physical and spiritual power!

"Take this and distribute it to them!" Ye Luo said, tossing the bottle to Nuonuo.

Nuonuo’s eyes lit up with delight. With this essence, recovery would become remarkably easy!

After a brief period of refining, Ye Luo’s physical strength had nearly recovered. After all, his way of consuming the essence was rather wasteful, but the effects were significantly apparent.

Otherwise, if Ye Luo was using other herbs, it would take at least half a day to recover to his current state.

However, even if it meant wasting some, Ye Luo needed to restore his realm promptly. After all, the South Territory was currently unstable, and he had too many enemies. No one knew when he might be ambushed.

Suddenly, his gaze sharpened, a flash of the Clairvoyant Eye!

Immediately, he discovered a Hunter hidden beneath the ground not far away!

This Hunter was clearly not planning to attack them but was monitoring them!

It was evident that a significant number of Hunters were approaching.

"Master, what’s wrong?" Nuonuo asked, perplexed by Ye Luo’s expression.

"There’s a Hunter ahead; do you want to battle him?" Ye Luo chuckled lightly.

Nuonuo immediately got ready, and then she leapt to the top of the Hunter, suddenly activating her battle armor and deploying her Divine Skill!

Boom!

With a loud noise, she punched into the ground.

The other disciples were puzzled, watching Nuonuo attack the ground for no apparent reason!

Then, with a piercing scream, a Hunter emerged, though his body was bloodied and his aura weakened—clearly severely injured—because Nuonuo’s punch had been quite powerful.

Nuonuo obviously didn’t plan to spare him; this Hunter was clearly a Scout—quick in speed and reaction but lacking in strength.

He was much weaker than the Hunter Ye Luo had encountered before.

As the Hunter flew up, Nuonuo struck out again.

With a bang, her punch caused the Hunter’s body to explode.

After all, a Hunter’s body isn’t particularly resilient.

At this point, the Hunter was already dead.

This is when the other disciples understood that a Hunter had been targeting them.

Even though this Hunter was taken down by Nuonuo, no one dared to guarantee whether he had transmitted any information.

"Move, head back to Zi Wei Sect at full speed!" Ye Luo shouted, then they sped along the road.

Given that these people were Body Cultivators and had the advantages of battle armor, they traveled quite swiftly.

When they arrived at Sumeru City, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the city’s residents regarded them with surprise.

After all, usually, spotting a disciple from Zi Wei Sect was rare, yet now over a hundred appeared, indicating something had surely occurred at Zi Wei Sect.

Of course, Ye Luo and his company ignored the curious gazes, heading straight for Mt. Sumeru, where they could see Zi Wei waiting with several Elders at the sect entrance.

"Ye Luo, are you alright?"

Zi Wei surrounded him; given the current relationship between them, the entire sect knew there was no need to hide anymore.

"I’m fine. I think you’ll be receiving news shortly." Ye Luo smiled.

As he finished speaking, a Scout from the sect delivered some information.

Zi Wei checked it and was visibly astonished.

"Ye Luo, did you really do this?" she murmured.

Ye Luo immediately laughed, "Since you received word, it must be true!"

Soon afterward, the other Elders obtained the same information. Immediately, their expressions toward Ye Luo slightly changed to ones of fear.

Single-handedly destroying the entire Pure Land, slaying a Dragon King, along with numerous talented disciples!

This feat would typically require the alliance of many forces to accomplish!

Indeed, Ye Luo had created a miracle!

Of course, this success was credited to the battle armor and the Mech Warriors!

Currently, apart from Zi Wei, others were unaware of the battle armor, as wearing it didn’t alter their appearance much, except adding some shine.

Ye Luo didn’t elaborate to them but hurried back to the Cave Mansion to discuss battle armor repairs with Zi Wei.

"Ye Luo, this isn’t a problem; you can freely utilize sect resources!" Zi Wei said immediately.

But Ye Luo knew that although Zi Wei was the Sect Master, she couldn’t decide on all the sect resources. If resources were depleted, Elders and disciples would desert.

Without enough for basic cultivation and living, why would they stay?

Not all disciples and Elders were that loyal.

Ye Luo owned plenty of resources, enough to repair over twenty sets of battle armor, but it wasn’t a sustainable plan!

War demands consumption, and where would these consumed resources come from?

Suddenly, Ye Luo thought of the term ’fighting to support fighting’! 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

In fact, he’d often used such strategies, so in a resource shortage, this was the first tactic—or solution—he thought of!

So, whom should Ye Luo target? That was indeed a question.

Still, he wasn’t in a hurry; despite needing battle armor, the new Mech Warriors also needed time to integrate.

So deciding whom to target depends on who’s foolish enough to provoke them!

Moreover, Ye Luo felt it was necessary to deploy the remaining hundred and fifty sets of battle armor.

Three hundred Mech Warriors—just the thought is exciting.

The crucial point is that even if a Mech Warrior falls, the mecha returns to Ye Luo, only requiring repairs based on damage extent.

Only extremely skilled opponents could completely destroy the mecha.

This matter of choosing disciples naturally went to Zi Wei, leaving residual tasks to Nuonuo while Ye Luo became a carefree Shopkeeper.
