By the edge of Nine Smoke Marsh, there were multiple mini outbursts of fights among the law masters. There was no intervention by the true gods of either party because, to the two groups of top powers, such small-scale fighting among the law masters under their commands—right before the final battle—was actually a way of training these law masters.
To Nine Smoke Marsh and Xuan Yu Mountain, true gods were the true core combat power.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
A burly and imposing giant whose footsteps could cause the land to tremble charged toward the numerous beasts ahead in a frenzied manner. These giants, positioned about Universe Ocean, were the pillars of support for their races. Anyone placed within Universe Ocean was nothing less than a Beast God. Only a magical place like the World of Jin had a space stable enough to easily accommodate such crossfire. If these fights had occurred in the primal universe or in Universe Ocean, the entire space would have shattered and collapsed.
Peng!
There were beasts tumbling and rolling about with hissing sounds they bit, baring fangs that glimmered with icy-cold rays. Arms were waving as shouts were heard. Huge axes hacked unfailingly! The entire region was a crazy sight to behold as both parties fought one another.
"Retreat! Alliance Master has given orders for an immediate retreat!"
"Alliance Master has given orders for an immediate retreat!"
Three warriors led the rest of the tribe from Xuan Yu Mountain. Each carried a transmission token with them wherever they went. At that moment, the message with orders to retreat was transmitted to them. This caused the tribal warriors who were initially fighting like crazy to immediately change their course of action.
"Brothers, Alliance Master has given the orders to retreat!"
"Retreat."
"Retreat."
Following the orders, a large group of tribal warriors—half of them fighting and half retreating—speedily made their way into a battleship. Thereafter, they retreated into the distance at lightning speed. The beasts who did not make it into the ship fast enough were roaring with rage, as they had been left behind.
"Retreat!"
"Alliance Master has given orders! Retreat!"
"Retreat! Alliance Master has given orders! Retreat!

Almost at the same moment, everyone around the edge of the Nine Smoke Marsh, the great number of tribal warriors in their respective troops, were either in the midst of fighting or in the midst of hiding in ambush. They had yet to take any action but had all received the same command. These troops started to retreat discreetly and speedily. They left the area around Nine Smoke Marsh.

"How weird." Luo Feng, who had been advancing as warily as possible to stay hidden from the troops, suddenly stopped. "Why isn't there a single great being from Xuan Yu Mountain to be found?"
"Milky Way, Milky Way! How is it possible that we don't even see a single great being from the Xuan Yu Mountain tribal alliance? If that is the case, how are you going to execute your plan? How are we going to sow discord?" Wu He asked anxiously.
Luo Feng lightly shook his head. He, too, was at a loss.
Based on their speculations, for so many small-scale conflicts, Xuan Yu Mountain must have sent at least a million law masters. This way, it would be impossible to put so many law masters through such a risk. There must have been true gods protecting them in the dark, just to prevent any unique situation from happening. And that was exactly what Luo Feng was looking for: a true god from Xuan Yu Mountain!
