The Jade Wall Palace was the unfinished Life Palace.
To complete it, they needed someone at the ninth level—and not just anyone. It had to be Huang Ji.
For now, it was only an immense eighth-level treasure. But it combined warfare, transport, production, and many other functions, making it extraordinary even so.
Its combat power grew with the number of people operating it. It could coordinate and combine the strength of thousands almost perfectly.
Not one of the eighth-level Voids they had encountered along the way had been a match for the Jade Wall Palace. All had been subdued and captured alive.
Only the Triangular Entity had proved troublesome enough for Huang Ji to step in personally.
"They wouldn't descend to a lower dimension even at the point of death..."
"And they'd already thought of that way out."
The many transdimensional beings inside the Jade Wall Palace had each taken up a post. Having witnessed the lives and deaths of those outside, they had plenty to reflect on.
Back when those people had followed Ivory Heaven away, Huang Ji had told them that if they ran out of options, they could return to three dimensions and survive.
Quite a few had since been saved that way.
At the time, they had not known Huang Ji was inside the Jade Wall Palace, and some had seen the situation clearly. At worst, they would start over. Even if the Void sealed them off, they had the courage to break through the barrier. It beat dying on the spot.
Yet this last group had missed countless chances. Even with Huang Ji there, they had died with a way out right before their eyes.
The reason none of them thought to descend at the end was simple: they believed Huang Ji would save them.
