They questioned a Purple Profound warrior and learned that these passages belonged to the fourth and fifth Disasters.

Were they... retreating?

Noah was speechless.

You are Disasters that make All Heavens and Myriad Realms tremble.

Do you not care about your dignity at all?

"Those two Disasters must have sensed the punch you unleashed earlier," Sally said calmly, not appearing surprised. Small Calamities often behaved like this.

She recalled Noah’s terrifying strike. It had clearly reached the level of a Fifth Order expert, and it was far beyond an ordinary attack or skill.

"The strongest monsters within a Small Calamities are only Fourth Order. Although we cannot use their spatial passages, they are likely worried that you might use your overwhelming strength to forcibly break through the barrier between worlds and invade them instead.

Noah understood.

This was not like a Disaster within a Remnant World, where large numbers of Sixth and Seventh Order Demonized Monsters existed, along with Abyssal Demons. Those forces would not fear a Fifth Order Awakeners breaking in.

Disasters were not indestructible.

Across the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, many Medium and Large Calamities had already been destroyed by Awakened World and Extraordinary Worlds.

Compared to them, these Small Calamities were far weaker.

A Fifth Order Awakener, if capable of breaking through world barriers or equipped with the right tools, could indeed destroy a Small Calamity alone.

"It is a pity that the cross world teleportation device cannot be used," Noah said with slight regret.

The device could only be used for teleportation between Awakened Worlds.

Sally’s expression eased slightly.

With two Disasters retreating, the pressure on her was greatly reduced.

As for the remaining three Disasters, it was not that they did not want to leave. They had simply been connected to the Purple Profound Civilization for too long and could not disengage in a short time.

....

Noah was in no hurry to return.

Instead, he exchanged information with Sally.

Out of gratitude, Sally did not hold anything back and shared everything she knew.

From her, Noah learned that Dawn Civilization was currently facing a Human Level Calamity.

This Disaster had already lasted for ten years.

Even now, it remained in a stalemate, with no sign of being resolved in the near future.

And it was not just the Dawn Civilization.

Almost all First Level Civilization ranked within the top ten thousand had encountered Human Level Calamities.

The only difference was their stage.

Some had just begun.

Others were already nearing their end.

Of course, there were exceptions.

For example, the Heavenly Dragon Civilization, ranked 2024, was different.

It had only been promoted to a First Level Civilization three months ago, and its strongest members were only at the Fourth Order.

The reason it ranked so high was simple.

The Heavenly Dragon Civilization was a Divine Grade Race.

Upon hearing this, Noah was genuinely surprised.

Back in the Civilization Convergence Zone, he had not examined each civilization individually, so he had missed their existence.

He had not expected that among the First Level Civilization, there would already be a Divine Grade Race.

Noah could understand why the Heavenly Dragon Civilization was only ranked 2024.

A Divine Grade race represented potential.

It meant that the civilization possessed a large number of Awakeners with high level talents.

However, they had only recently advanced. Their overall strength had not yet fully developed, so it was natural that they did not immediately occupy the top ranks.

Aside from the First Level Civilizations within the top ten thousand, many lower ranked civilizations had also encountered Human Level Calamities.

"By the way, if you ever encounter a true Breeder Civilization, do not hesitate. Run immediately."

Sally’s tone turned serious.

The Dawn Civilization was deeply entangled in a Human Level Calamity. Very few Fifth Order Awakeners could leave their world, so Fourth Order Awakeners like her had become the main rescuers.

Through countless battles, she had gained experience and earned the title Daughter of Radiance.

"A true Breeder Civilization?"

"Yes. What you saw today was only a civilization with Breeder tendencies. The Netherbone Civilization is not a true Breeder Civilization."

"Bone Lord Karth and the others were already very strong."

"If it were a true Breeder Civilization, they would be hundreds of times stronger."

Sally’s expression remained solemn as she spoke.

Hearing this, Noah’s expression turned serious.

A true Breeder Civilization did not even need to expand outward.

Simply concentrating resources internally was enough to create terrifying Awakeners.

Take Blue Star as an example.

If most of its resources were gathered into the hands of a few individuals, the power they could reach would be unimaginable.

Of course, not every civilization had such a large population.

Even at its peak, the Purple Profound Civilization only had tens of millions.

And within any civilization, there would always be resistance.

Even so, it was enough to nurture extremely powerful Breeders.

"If a civilization is officially judged to be a Breeder Civilization, the system will issue a warning to both the requesting party and all rescuers," Sally said.

"And the name of a Breeder Civilization cannot be hidden."

"So if you ever hear that a Breeder Civilization is involved, leave immediately."

Noah nodded.

He had no intention of relying on immortality to gamble with his life.

"Of course, true Breeder Civilizations rarely respond to distress signals. They usually travel across the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, actively searching for Awakened Worlds."

Noah had gained a great deal from his exchange with Sally.

"No. I cannot be reckless."

"The current me, and the current Blue Star, are still too weak."

With that thought, Noah turned off his signal receiver.

It was time to focus on cultivation.

Breeder Civilizations, Disasters, Dragon Slayers. All of them gave him a deep sense of unease.

The only way to eliminate that feeling was to become overwhelmingly powerful.

Third Order was far from enough.

Fifth Order was the real threshold.

"Hmm. Has the team finally been assembled?"

After returning, Noah checked his messages and immediately saw good news from Rose.

A hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.

It was time to enter Instances and grow stronger.
