The enemy's formidable lineup had fled in disarray, which finally allowed them to breathe a sigh of relief. It was a close call. If they had committed all their forces, they truly would have been unable to withstand that assault.
After watching the enemy retreat, they chose not to give chase. It wasn't just because of the principle of not pursuing a cornered foe; the key reason was that their opponents were also at the Core Formation Stage. Without an overwhelming advantage in cultivation, forcing the enemy into a desperate situation could cause problems for their side as well. This was especially true if their foes decided to fight to the death by burning their Essence Blood. Even if they were doomed, they would try to drag someone down with them.
