In the history of the insectoid race, they had made plenty of attempts to challenge the Holy Realm, so they had a fairly good grasp of it. Though this spatial plane that the Black and White Gods made would often change, the variations done were all within the acceptable range, which was a great benefit to the insectoids.
Unfortunately, Xia Fei, the interloper's appearance, had caused the situation to change greatly!
Uti washed himself clean of any traces of blood by the river, applying the white powder that he had previously prepared all over his body. The powder gave off a pungent spicy smell, which completely overpowered the scent of blood on his body; this could help him avoid being assaulted by the Evil Spirit Trees.
Uti had the five expert guardians, Tohme, Fini, Bellal, Nimuni, and Li Mo, around him. There were also two mysterious figures, hidden among the troops, a good distance away. They too were always maintaining a short distance from Uti.
