Currently, a tacit understanding had been reached among all parties around East Immortal Lake. No one would start a major battle before the opening of the Country of Mourning. When the Ancient Annihilation Domain opened, each of them would enter the domain and proceed with their abilities ā only then would the real fight for survival begin.
Stev took a breather, feeling less tense than before.
"Tonight, I will be meditating. Guard the camp well and do not disturb me unless there's something urgent."
"As you command."
Stev turned back to his tent. Just as he settled down, he suddenly noticed the entire East Immortal Lake area blazing with radiance as if it were daylight!
A voice with an authoritative tone resonated throughout the expanse, "All cultivators in East Immortal Lake are to register! From this point forward, you will serve the nation. Defy this command and face death!"
Stev was taken aback. He quickly realized: Oh no, I unknowingly entered someone's domain!
