December arrives, and everyone is still cultivating in the Mysterious Realm, but the long-term absence of top combat power has started showing its impacts in the outside world.
The criminal cases caused by cultivators among the populace have increased by nearly 30% compared to November. In the vast rural areas, there have been successive reports of monster sightings, and on social media, there's an increasingly uncontrollable trend.
The "border violation incidents" in the Northern Border and Southern Border have sharply increased. Investigations indicate that they are not directed by the Witch King or the Amur Witch's Group, but rather spontaneous acts by unaffiliated Transcendents.
With the rise of non-human demons, these Transcendents were forced to flee their original places of cultivation and began to migrate aimlessly.
