Before the Dragon Ascension Gate on the outskirts of the Ancient Heavenly Palace.
Countless top factions from the Heavenly Luo Continent, having rushed here upon hearing the news in hopes of claiming a share of the Ancient Heavenly Palace's treasures, had arrived after the space gradually stabilized.
Yet, faced with the Grandmaster-level palace-protecting spiritual array surrounding the Ancient Heavenly Palace, they were all dumbfounded.
"Can someone tell me why this damned Ancient Heavenly Palace is so absurdly wealthy that even its outer perimeter has a Grandmaster-level spiritual array!?"
"A Master-level spiritual array is already comparable to the full-force strike of a powerful Earth Supreme Realm expert."
"A Grandmaster-level spiritual array comparable to a Heavenly Sovereign... how did the Extraterritorial Evil Clan of ancient times enter the Ancient Heavenly Palace without destroying it?"
"Let alone fight the Ancient Heavenly Emperor to the death!"
The expressions of many people from powerful top factions turned extremely grim.
Originally, the plan of the various factions had been to send their young geniuses into the Ancient Heavenly Palace first.
Once they entered the Heavenly Emperor's Mausoleum, they would then open a spatial passage and teleport their faction leaders, who were Upper Earth Supremes, directly inside to seek an opportunity to obtain the Ancient Heavenly Emperor's inheritance.
Who could have imagined that everyone would be stopped outside the Ancient Heavenly Palace by this Grandmaster-level palace-protecting spiritual array?
Before the three Dragon Ascension Gates, even the leading young geniuses on the Heavenly Luo Continent's rankings had been barred from entry.
Zhu Yan, the Flame Spirit Clan's top-ranked young genius and a peak Ninth-Grade Supreme Realm expert; Insect Master Su Qingyin, the second-ranked direct disciple of the Old Ancestor of Myriad Insects; Garuda, the third-ranked young genius of the Saint Demon Palace; and the rest all stood before
