Usually, it wouldn't take long to arrive with the Divine Demon Beasts. However, the rest of the Freedom Sect and their airship were there as well. It wasn't as if Rean and Roan could simply teleport the entire airship right in front of everyone. The Freedom Sect members also knew that they shouldn't talk about the twins' abilities.

With that, they simply used the twins' airship to head back to the Freedom Sect. As Rean mentioned, when he told the sect members about Fizer, everyone bombarded him with questions nonstop. Roan might have everything worked out for their training. Nevertheless, it was a fact that Fizer was much stronger than the twins or Kentucky.

Eventually, they arrived at the Freedom Sect, and only then did the others see how many members it had. In the end, the biggest majority didn't want to participate in the war or didn't meet the minimum age requirement. "So many young humans. I've never seen so many of them together before," Fizer said with a happy expression. It wasn't every day one could see such a scene on a planet like this.

Rean then noticed something different "Hey, that's a surprise."

"What is it?" The rest asked back.

Rean pointed down from the airship as Malo and Poliana approached it. However, they immediately understood why Rean was surprised. If Malo and Poliana were approaching the ship, that meant that at least one of them had entered the Core and Soul Fusion Realm. Malo was only at the Peak Stage of the Core Formation Realm before. Obviously, their Spiritual Senses told them that Malo was the one who reached that level.

"Oh! So that's the guy you talked about, huh?" Fizer looked at Malo, incredibly satisfied with what he saw. With his Spiritual Sense, he could totally tell that male was indeed as young as the twins mentioned.

Malo was bringing Poliana up with his Spiritual Energy. As soon as they landed on the airship's deck, they immediately greeted Rean and Roan. "Welcome back, Senior Rean, Senior Roan."

Phex and the Divine Demon Beasts weren't that much interested in the sect members, though. "So, where's Celis?"

Rean quickly pointed down to the Demon Tree in the distance. "There he is. He's just assuming a different form to prevent being discovered." Rean then looked at Malo and Poliana before saying, "Help land the airship with Rafin's group. Everyone's tired, and some are a little emotional due to the loss of some friends."

Roan also looked at Fizer, telling him, "You can simply go and talk with them. Malo will explain everything you need to know. As you can see, we have some things to discuss with the World Swallowing Cedar and the Divine Demon Beasts, so we're going ahead."

Fizer nodded, not daring to delay the Stage Nine Divine Demon Beasts. Not to mention that he was more interested in Malo himself. "Alright, see you boys later."

Phex and the twins' groups immediately left the airship, flying in Celis's direction.

Of course, Celis had noticed their arrival as soon as they passed through Rean's sensorial formation. When Phex's group appeared in front of him, he didn't look the least bit surprised either. "Hmph! So you finally decided to show your faces."

Phex scratched the back of his head while in human form, saying, "Sorry, Senior Celis. However, it wasn't our fault that you got captured back then. Expect for Darian, the rest of us were pretty young during that time, with just a few hundred years difference between each of us."

Celis didn't seem to care, though. "So what? The kids carry the parents' sins. I went incognito after escaping since I had no intention of looking at your faces. If you don't have anything to say, just get out already. You're ruining my mood."

Rea, Roan, and Kentucky were quite surprised. They thought they had been hiding Celis because they were afraid of someone taking him away. However, it turned out that Celis had never been afraid of being taken by the demon beasts. If anything, the Divine Demon Beasts seem to be quite submissive to him. 'Why did we put so much effort into hiding you in the Demon Beast Continent then?'

Darian, the oldest of the Divine Demon Beasts, quickly stepped forward, saying, "Senior Celis, back then, I was still a Stage Eight Demon Beast. Phex, Frin, and Xaon were even worse, being at Stage Five and Six at most. However, we can tell you that our predecessors were really aggrieved at what happened. They even tried to invade the Soul Rulers' headquarters many times. Unfortunately, the Soul Rulers had formed a perfect defense. Some of the Stage Nine Demon beasts of that time even died during the process before we finally gave up."

Rean didn't know much about what happened, but he decided to give the Divine Demon Beasts a hand. "Ahem... Senior Celis, even you, with your Stage Nine cultivation, couldn't do anything against the imprisonment. You shouldn't blame them too much. In the end, we still helped you escape, and you have a chance to cultivate again. Not only that, your regression in cultivation wasn't just in strength, but in age as well. You have the chance to correct any flaws while reaching a whole new level."

Phex's group was shocked to hear that. They thought that Celis lost his cultivation due to some accident. However, from what Rean said, it seemed like that really wasn't the case. Of course, one special point caught all their attention. "Ahem...what do you mean by going back in age? Do you mean he's younger again?"

Celis snorted, already understanding what they wanted. "Hmph! Stop dreaming. The reason I got younger again wasn't my choice. It was just an opportune event. Also, it can only work on Demon Plants due to their internal structure."

Celis then looked at Rean and Roan and asked, "So? For you to bring them here means that you need something, right?"

Frin immediately nodded, responding, "Yes. Senior Celis, we will need your help with the Bestial Sacred Ground."
