High-Level Martial Era

"Lost contact?"

The young man in the blue Martial Path uniform's face changed, "Little sister is the most important of their group, definitely equipped with the best communication device, how could she lose contact?"

"No, this won't do."

"I must find mother," the young man in the blue Martial Path uniform turned and was about to leave.

"Second brother, calm down," the young man in the black robe shouted angrily, "The affairs of World within Worlds contain the Blazing Flame Family's biggest secrets, can they be inquired by you and me? Even Dad shouldn't interfere, don't forget, our surname is Lin, not Flame."

"By all rights, we should know nothing about World within Worlds."

The young man in the blue Martial Path uniform fell silent.

That's right!

Although the blood of the Blazing Flame Family flowed in their veins, they were only peripheral members; they didn't even qualify to enter World within Worlds... Only their sister, who could cultivate the "Nirvana Divine Scripture," could become the core member of the Blazing Flame Family despite her foreign surname.

Lin Lanyue's journey to World within Worlds was a secret and not disclosed to them.

They had learned of it through their own secret channels... The inheritance of the Blazing Flame Family had been decaying for over a hundred years, and with generations attempting to break through to World within Worlds, that naturally led to many leaks.

"Big brother, what should we do?" the young man in the blue Martial Path uniform clenched his teeth, "Just wait around?"

"Inform Dad of the details. He is a Flying Heaven Warrior and also a Six-Star Councilor of the alliance; naturally, he will figure out a way," murmured the young man in the black robe.

"Alright, I'll send the message right away."

...

As Lin Lanyue's two older brothers were discussing, in that super-large aircraft hovering above the city,

In one of its meeting rooms, a group of powerful beings was arguing non-stop.

"World within Worlds has always been located in the Fierce Feather Star Realm, extremely hidden, with only one entrance and exit controlled by us."

"How could the Immortal Ruins Civilization's 'Gu Yue Divine Kingdom' have discovered it? And how did they open an entrance and exit that we were unaware of, without us noticing?"

"Too strange!"

"I suspect someone has leaked the true secret of World within Worlds; we must investigate, thoroughly," one existence after another spoke up.

As one of the strongest 'high-order Spiritual Nature families' within the Seven Stars human civilization, they were the highest echelon of the Blazing Flame Family.

Everyone participating in this meeting was at the Flying Heaven Level.

"Silence."

A cold voice rang out, "We naturally need to investigate the leak, but right now, the most urgent matter is rescue."

The speaker was a middle-aged man in a black robe adorned with a pattern of a flame divine bird.

"Right now, sixteen young ones have entered World within Worlds, fourteen of them are already dead, with only two still alive, but they too have lost contact," said the middle-aged man in the black robe, "Among them, Lanyue had already lost contact before the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom's attack."

"What? Lost contact before the attack?"

"Could it be?"

"Really?"

"How were we not aware?" The Flying Heaven Warriors present were shocked, setting aside their dispute.

Most of them had entered World within Worlds before and naturally understood what this implied.

"Must be rescued."

"We must rescue Lin Lanyue."

"To rescue someone, we must delve deep into World within Worlds," another old man in casual clothing spoke up gravely, "but the Fierce Feather Star Realm is a Second Level Star Realm... World within Worlds has even sturdier barriers... Leaving is no concern, but entry requires one to be a First Rank lifeform."

"And preferably, the top-tier ones who can almost reach Second Rank."

"After all, according to the messages those young ones sent before their deaths, they encountered Prime Warriors of the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom who seemed to have broken through immediately after sneaking into World within Worlds," said the old man in casual clothing.

All the Flying Heaven Warriors listened intently, their expressions changing.

Prime Warriors?

The meeting was called abruptly; most of them were still not fully briefed on the details.

"The situation is dangerous," the middle-aged man in the black robe said slowly, "Reliant on just our family, we simply cannot dispatch so many First Rank Martial Artists on the verge of breaking through... let alone truly formidable geniuses."

"I propose we report the matter to the alliance and request their assistance," the middle-aged man in the black robe offered his opinion.

"No way."

"Patriarch, absolutely not, wouldn't this publicize the secrets of World within Worlds?"

"Not acceptable." Immediately, several Flying Heaven Warriors voiced their objections, but many more remained silent, contemplating the Patriarch's suggestion.

"You several, shut up," the old man in casual clothing frowned, "If this was the past and something major happened inside World within Worlds, we would rather lose a bunch of lives than reveal the secret."

"But what about now?"

"People from the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom have already infiltrated."

"The Immortal Ruins Civilization is the most terrifying civilization we know of... The overall strengths displayed by the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom are at least on par with our entire Seven Stars human civilization, if not stronger... How can we resist with just our family?" the old man in casual clothing said coldly.

"Time is not on our side."

"Even if we reveal the secrets of World within Worlds to the alliance, as long as we can retake World within Worlds, at most other geniuses will be arranged by the alliance to enter, but we will still hold the majority," he continued.

"However, if we give the Gu Yue Divine Kingdom some time, once they ascertain the true secret of World within Worlds, they will definitely invest massive resources and fortify it beyond penetration. By then, even if the alliance contributes resources, both manpower and materials, it will be difficult to retake it, and we will get nothing.

Our family will also fall into complete decline," the old man in casual clothing shouted angrily.

The meeting room fell silent.

"Alright, let's vote," the young man in the black robe said slowly, "Whether to agree with the Great Elder's proposal."

"Agree!"

"Abstain."

"Abstain."

"Agree."

"Agree"

...

"Nineteen votes agree, six abstain, with nine elders not attending the meeting; the total number of agree votes is more than half, and the number opposing is less than one-third," the middle-aged man in the black robe declared, "The resolution passes."
