Before stepping into this passage, Star Tail had explained some crucial information. "In theory, Dao Children are allowed to enter the divine realm. However, if they sneak in, they'll be punished by the divine realm. That's why, throughout the ages, very few Subordinate Creatures have chosen to sneak in."
"They'll be punished for sneaking in?" Luo Zheng froze. "But I was in the Immortal Abode..."
"That's because you never left Taki Whirlpool Forest. If you entered the divine realm through North Saint's Immortal Abode, you would still be punished even if you managed to leave Taki Whirlpool Forest safely," Star Tail said. "This is a rule the Jiang Family modified."
After taking charge of ascension, the Jiang Family began helping the Saints of the Hall of Saints guide ascenders from among the Subordinate Creatures. Every person who ascended to the divine realm was recorded.
However, ascenders from the universe were precious resources to the various Saints. After all, the martial artists who ascended from their own universes were True Gods who had condensed divine entities through their own efforts. Such True Gods were highly coveted geniuses even in the divine realm.
Yet after the Hall of Saints had developed for countless years, it established a detailed set of rules to balance the interests of the various lineages and Saints. These ascenders were allocated according to the rankings of the floating islands. Some of the experts that Saints had nurtured in their Worlds Within were fought over by others, so naturally, they were displeased.
Thus, for a period of time, a large number of people began sneaking into the divine realm!
Some Saints even directly brought the Dao Children from their Worlds Within into the divine realm to cultivate.
Enraged, the Jiang Family directly modified the rules on the stone tablet
