The seven Immortals of the Ninth Realm froze in place, exchanging glances with a hint of struggle in their eyes.
Previously, they obeyed the Time Master because of the Time Master's overpowering strength. Even if they worked together, they were no match for the Time Master.
But if they also broke through to the Mythic Stage, seven Mythic Stage beings combined might have a chance against the Time Master, whose power ultimately has limits.
The Time Master spoke truly; they were handpicked by the Time Master from countless exotic beasts in the Southern Wild Domain, each possessing immense potential, and there was hope for them to break through to the Mythic Stage.
By then, they would no longer be under the Time Master's control.
But the Time Master's current proposition completely tied them to the Time Master indefinitely.
Forever under the Time Master's sway, even if they were to break through to the Mythic Stage, they would not attain freedom?
They didn't want this.
