lake....whether underground, in trees, or underwater, there were circles of yellow light, some large and some small, encircling various areas. Within these circles lurked all kinds of ferocious beasts...The atmosphere in this region of the Linggu Domain was already heavy due to the large number of cultivators gathered there. With the arrival of six purple-robed celestial patrol officers, it almost solidified completely.
Looking at the six Purple-Clad Heavenly Patrol Officers, who were riding celestial steeds and looked exactly alike, everyone could feel a tremendous pressure descending from the heavens, enveloping them and making it impossible to move or even breathe.
The Celestial Inspector represents the Celestial Being, who acts on behalf of Heaven to patrol and guard. It is an existence that is beyond compare.
For cultivators of the Celestial Gathering Realm, the Heavenly Patrol's reputation is formidable, an existence they cannot hope to contend with.
As for most cultivators from the lower realms, although they were seeing an Astral Surveyor for the first time, it wasn't difficult to guess their identity; they must be of extremely noble status.
Therefore, even the most unruly cultivators in the high-level battlefields were subdued at this moment, and they didn't even dare to look at it.
Although Gingercloud appeared calm, a flicker of surprise also crossed his eyes.
Because, these six purple-clad celestial patrol officers gave him the feeling that their strength should be above Shizumu's.
But that's normal!
The Xuntian lineage,
being able to roam freely throughout the entire celestial domain, can be said to be invincible. Even the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables have to give them face. If there was no considerable strength as a foundation, it would be impossible to achieve this.
Even Gingercloud had once speculated that the might of the Celestial Guardians likely surpassed that of the Nine Great Heavenly Sovereigns!
Otherwise, how could the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables tolerate the existence of the Xuan Tian lineage
Of course, Jiang Yun was also curious about the origins of the Xuntian lineage.
Where did that mysterious celestial guardian come from, and how did it become the one who watches over heaven and earth
What kind of existence is his "heaven"
As for the Celestial Patrol lineage, Jiang Yun currently doesn't feel particularly friendly or hostile towards them.
After all, until now, Ginger Cloud still doesn't know how his father, the Ginger Clan, and the Xuntian Clan were related!
Could it be that among one's own enemies, there are also those from the Heavenly Patrol lineage
Now that everyone is here...
At that moment, a deep voice suddenly rang out, startling everyone awake and causing them to look up at the six purple-robed Heavenly Patrol Officers who had always been above them.
At first glance, everyone's eyes flickered slightly.
Because all six celestial officers in purple robes wore masks, no one could tell who had spoken. It gave the impression that all six were speaking at once.
That deep voice continued, "Open the Spirit Ancient Domain!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was slightly taken aback. They had already been within the Linggu Domain for some time, so why was this Celestial Inspector now talking about opening it
As the voice fell, six patrol officers simultaneously raised their hands, twelve palms falling slowly from top to bottom.
"Boom!"
Then, a sound like thunder roared suddenly.
All of a sudden, the space before them seemed to warp and twist as the twelve hands descended.
This feeling was like an invisible wall, under the pressure of twelve palms, gradually crumbling until a huge black hole appeared in everyone's eyes, spanning a thousand zhang in radius.
And through the black hole, we can clearly see that although its interior is also a dark rift, there are countless worlds scattered within the rift.
This scene left everyone astonished. They never expected this Linggu domain to also be a world of its own.
Those who reacted quickly, like Jiang Yun, instinctively turned their heads back after seeing the situation inside the black hole.
At first glance, everyone was once again deeply shocked.
Ginger Cloud clearly remembered that although the Sky-Defying Ancient Path concealed countless worlds, the direction she and all the cultivators from the Lower Realms walked was always forward.
Now that they stood in the palace city of the Three Heavenly Palaces, it should have been the Heaven-Conquering Ancient Path they had already traversed behind them.
But at this moment, looking back, there was nothing behind me.
Even the crimson-colored Ancient Road to Heaven had vanished, leaving only an endless expanse of darkness.
It's as if we all just materialized here, rather than having walked the ancient path to reach this point.
Jiang Yun's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he was a little surprised by this situation, he knew that it should be an illusion, and it had something to do with space.
After all, when Jiang Yun first stepped onto the Ancient Path of Contending Heavens, he used his divine sense to scan the entire path. He saw three worlds connected together.
But later, in the course of his journey, he didn't go through those three worlds at all. Instead, he kept falling into worlds formed by boundary stones along the ancient path.
Moreover, although the Linggu Realm is a single realm, it contains four distinct battlefields that stand side by side. Each battlefield does not overlap with the others.
All of this is enough to prove that everything was done by those top powerhouses in the Heavenly Domains, who used spatial power to deliberately alter the ancient Spirit Realm.
And now, the world displayed within that black hole should be the true realm of primordial antiquity.
Jiang Yun slowly retracted his gaze from behind him, refocusing on the black hole in front of him. He said in a voice only he could hear, "In that case, the two Heavenly Palaces I had taken before were completely useless."
"The actions of the celestial official are equivalent to completely severing our path back!"
Originally, Ginger Cloud was still thinking that the two layers of Heavenly Palaces she had snatched couldn't truly be used for anything.
If all else fails, you can always walk back and return to the first or second Heavenly Gate. Relying on your mastery over it, you can completely treat the Heavenly Gate as a base of operations.
The defenses of the Heavenly Citadel were so strong that even the Spirit Race couldn't break through, let alone a group of cultivators at the Transcending Heaven realm.
As long as one stays within the Heavenly Citadel and waits for others to decimate each other, at least a significant portion of one's strength can be preserved when they make their move.
But now, this idea is clearly impossible to realize.
"Could it be that the Celestial Domains have already sensed my control over Tianque, so they deliberately cut off my retreat"
This question, Ginger Cloud naturally wouldn't have an answer to, and he was too lazy to think about it.
Since there is no Heavenly Pavilion to rely on, it's better to compete for those hundred spots with one's own strength.
At this time, the celestial official's voice rang out once more: "Among you, many are unfamiliar with the rules after the change. I shall explain them in detail here."
As you all know, whether it's the Celestial Realm or the Lower Realm, only one hundred people can ultimately survive and enter the Celestial Realm.
And these hundred people do not refer only to those here, but also include the merged Unranked and Lower Ranks battlefields that are currently the same.
At hearing this, everyone's faces changed again, even Ginger Cloud was no exception.
Originally, he still thought that after the four war zones merged in pairs, each war zone could use a hundred qualifications.
But unexpectedly, it was two battlefields combined that yielded a hundred qualifications.
This also means that each battlefield only has fifty slots, making the chance of survival even lower!
Jiang Yun muttered to himself, "In that case, I'm afraid that all the cultivators sent by the sects and clans from every celestial domain are split in two. One part entered here, and the other part entered another battlefield."
The celestial official's voice continued, "Furthermore, these hundred quotas are not given based on who reaches the Celestial Gathering Domain first. There are standards for judgment!"
Everyone was taken aback, not understanding what the criteria for judgment were or what it meant.
Six celestial guards suddenly raised their hands, and countless white jade tablets rained down upon everyone like drops of water. Each person held one in their hand.
"Standards, that's life!"
Once you enter the Linggu Domain, every person you kill will be automatically recorded in the jade slips in your hands!
Finally, only those who have killed 100 enemies are eligible to enter the Zhutian Collection Realm!. Although fewer people are bidding, at least three forces are still unwilling to give up.Just then, a woman's voice suddenly rang out from one of the rooms above the platform: "All of you stop arguin...
