“Shut up!” Roxy glared coldly at the woman. “I helped him before only to repay the elder Calcraft’s kindness! I’m helping him this time because I promised Senior Varhess to maintain order in Bint City,” Roxy added expressionlessly before walking away.
“You’re blushing yet you’re still denying it!” The woman laughed heartily. She glanced at Nash before flying off to chase after Roxy.
Nash sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed as he rested. After about ten minutes, three array patterns floated up in front of him, indicating that the other three arrays were complete. The eastern array was the main array, and it controlled the others.
Nash flipped his wrist and placed a spiritual stone engraved with the Pivot Pattern in the center of the main array. Then, the four arrays activated simultaneously and altered the natural forces. Winds circled Bint City, but within it, they stopped. Dust slowly settled to the ground, making the already quiet city even more silent.
After the silence came jubilation. Residents walked out of their buildings, dancing on the dust-covered ground.
After a while, Nash returned to the rooftop of the Empire Hotel. He glanced up at the stars and calculated the time. The nine-star alignment would form a perfect line at midnight tonight.
This was the time when the secret realm passage should open, but where would it appear?
Suddenly, Roxy landed next to Nash, her hair flowing behind her. "Nash, a large aurora appeared in the center of the Western desert. There's also a very strong spatial fluctuation there. I think it’s where the passage to the Immortal Falls will open!"
Nash glanced at Roxy and asked, "How far away is it?"
"Over 600 kilometers."
"How many Profound Oriental Realm experts are there in Bint City?" Nash asked again.
"Five." Roxy’s eyes flickered. "There’s one from the Sakaris Mountain Sword Sect, another from the Kindle Sect, and another from Cloud Ascendant Palace. The remaining two are me and my senior.”
"What about Bristol? Have you found his whereabouts?" Nash was staring ahead, his gaze deep. He was worried that Bristol might act recklessly in desperation and seek revenge on society.
