You Xi Wang started to interact with the spirits inside the weapons as the people formed two teams and started to search for the Demon Summoning Boxes. The boy was alone in the cave, Maya guarded him.

The other eight people first headed to the center of the forest. They decided to help the five boys get their weapons. Then they split up into four teams with two members each. They could have covered more area if they all went alone, but they choose safety over speed. Two can support each other in case they et some difficulties.

The sun rose from the east lighting up the sky. You Xi Wang sat inside the cave meditating. Hearing some rustling sounds he opened his eyes. Soon the four teams emerged from the woods. They all had tired expressions. They walked in and sat down on the ground with a huff.

After they caught their breath, You Xi Wang asked, "How was it?"

Klaus spoke, "I went to the western side. Take a wild guess, how many of these boxes did we find?"

You Xi Wang replied nonchalantly, "50 plus."

Klaus shook his head, "You are not even close. 199. Almost two hundred. If triggered it will be chaos."

Zen shoot spoke, "True, adding the one we had triggered early on, this will be 200. I went to the east, I found 150. It could be because that area is less vegetated and there are fewer spots to hide these things."

The others also reported the number of boxes they found. You Xi Wang calculated and he said, "It is certainly the number of the demons. Inverted 999. What do you people say? If I give you a chance to grow stronger?"

Everyone's ears perked up. Zen Shoto asked, "What do you mean? Why would you help us?"

You Xi Wang spoke, "After this tournament is over, I will join the defense forces and enter the Lost Sector." his words made everyone suck in a cold breath. Klaus spoke, "With all due respect man. You are a maniac."

You Xi Wang chuckled, "I will be needing a squad. I have my original team training as we speak. Their realm of cultivation may be lower than some of you but their efficiency. You don't want to face off against them. If you people are up to it then I will leave a slot for you in my squad. We all know the number of chances one can acquire in the lost sector ruins."

Mace spoke energetically, "I fight with you. You are strong. I will join your squad."

Isaac spoke up, "Hey, hey there. Hold your horses, Mace. Do you think that there are only rewards lying there in the lost sector? There is death as well. The mortality rate is 97%." with that he turned his gaze to You Xi Wang. He wanted to see how this guy will counter him.

You Xi Wang spoke, "True, there is a high mortality rate. But treasures always come with trouble. Even if you cultivate naturally you will have to face the heavenly tribulations. Compared to that this is nothing. You can tell me how many people have succeeded in crossing a tribulation." he took a pause. Then with a silent agreement with the other, he continued, "If anyone got some sort of opportunity, Do you think we will be able at least prepare for the tribulation crossing?"

The people fell in thought and they nodded to themselves. Gena Langford at this moment spoke the first words in her life, "Xi Wang, I agree."

Her words shocked everyone to the core. They all researched each other. They all knew that Gena Langford was unable to speak from ever since she was a few days ago. But her melodic voice shocked them. They glanced at her with fiery eyes.

The girl was shy and she hurriedly evaded their gazes and spoke in a mosquito-like buzz, "Xi Wang helped me." her simple sentence shifted the gazes back to You Xi Wang. The boy sighed and with a shrug, he said, "Come on she was not congenitally ill. Her vocal cords were covered with the spiritual anomaly. I just told her how to clear that." he shook his head.

Jack who was silent from the start asked, "How do you plan to deal with these demon boxes? How will we become stronger from this."

You Xi Wang smiled, "We trigger one of the boxes daily. Form a team and deal with the demon. We all are strong enough to fight with all our strength for two days. You tell me if we co-operated together. This survival round will become our training session. After two days. We all take a rest, Comprehend what we have learned from fighting with the demons. Then after a day, I set up a grade 6 Virtual Dimension array. We enter that array and try to solo as many demons as we can. I will give you all a timer and a jade seal. After that timer is done, you all will be outside the array and the array will collapse with all the remaining demons inside. How about it, sounds plausible?"

The group was surprised by this plan of You Xi Wang. The virtual Dimension array he spoke of just now was a type of spatial array. Capable of producing a virtual dimension for a limited time. This array was often used in the defense forces training programs. The array will collapse after a limited time. That was around a week.

This plan was nice but what they lacked were resources such as food and water. Issac thought about this and raised the question, "Well if we are inside the array. How do we sustain ourselves without food and water? You do know that one needs food before they step into the Nirvana Rebirth Realm?"

You Xi Wang smiled, "Did none of you noticed that the safety bead given to us was weird?"

The people looked at him with confusion. Gena Langford spoke, "Umm, that bead has three arrays, one is a teleportation array. The other two are a spatial storage array and a communication talisman array."

Her words shocked the 7 people. They glanced at You Xi Wang and Gena as if the two people are monsters. Gena was never used to such gazes, subconsciously she shifted closer to You Xi Wang, who shook his head helplessly.

The system thought to himself, 'Dog master, I got you a beauty. You better be grateful to me later.'

You Xi Wang took the bead out from his space ring. It was as big as a peach seed. The boy circulated his spiritual energy inside the communication talisman array rune. Soon the rune lit up. A voice erupted from the other side.

"Huh, you discovered it so early?" who else it could be but hippie elder?

You Xi Wang spoke, "Elder Hippie, I discovered it the moment you gave it to me on the airship. Okay, this rune is not meant for a long duration. So here's the report. We found a demon summoning box, it was accidentally triggered. We killed the demon. Now we have found out the rest of the 665 demon summoning boxes. We are going to grind them for our growth. Okay, don't worry about the rest. Just tell my master to get the bastard behind this."

The elder replied, "Very well, also, HOW DARE YOU CALL ME HI...." before he could finish YOu Xi Wang cut off the communication. He then turned his spiritual energy to the spatial array and he found 30 food pills, 100 healing pills, 2 teleportation rune talismans. Pouring out the stuff he showed it to the others who were now flabbergasted by the resources they just discovered.

You Xi Wang spoke, "Lesson One, always inspect everything using your spirit sense and not eyes. Because what eyes can not detect spirit sense can." he sounded like a teacher at this moment but the others did not complain. They have accepted silently that You Xi Wang was indeed better than them. If they were to find that it was not You Xi Wang but his secondary consciousness will they slam their heads on tofu and commit suicide.

...

Council headquarters, Imperial Sector. The nine elders sat around a Big lustrous round table. Among them was an old hippie, who was breathing exaggeratedly. While the others were slightly shivering. They were trying not to laugh at his misery. Imagine a dignified elder of the council was called 'Elder Hippie' by a greenhorn kid.

The hippie glanced at Alester Book and roared, "Old bookworm, what a good disciple you have taught. Humph let him come back I will break his teeth."

Anyone finally could not hold on and they all started laughing hard. The hippie gritted his teeth but then he sighed helplessly. Achilles spoke between his laughter, "Shall we nab the traitor yet, elder hippie."

HAHAHAHAHAHA...

The whole hall erupted with a burst of laughter. Thankfully, the hall was soundproof and covered by the would barriers they deployed after entering.
