Other Factions Arrive at the Fifth Level

Not long after Jiang Yi and his group stepped into the Forest of Steles.

This palace complex--

Suddenly, it became incredibly lively and bustling!

People began to appear one after another, row after row.

Yes, some looked quite disheveled!

Yes, they were dressed in tattered clothes!

Some were covered in wounds, or their robes were soaked in blood, looking like they were seriously injured!

Others looked terrified, occasionally turning their heads to look behind them!

However, the auras of their leaders were all extremely powerful!

They have all reached the realm of the Creation True Monarch.

One of them held up a large banner with a light blue pattern and the word "Zheng" written on it.

That's the power of the Holy Path, the Zheng Clan!

Leading the way were the direct descendants of the Zheng Clan, along with their protectors.

An old servant with dragon horns on his head!

One side consisted of people dressed in white robes embroidered with cloud patterns and carved with treasure maps, or with swords hanging at their waists...

They came from the Three Great Blessed Lands, and were the largest in number, making them the Dao Master!

On the other side, a blue robe was embroidered with stars.

It comes from the Meteorite Pavilion!

It's obvious that those who can come here are all powerful forces.

Just then--

"Roar!"

"Clang!!!"

"Squeak!!!"

Three deafening roars echoed from outside the palace complex.

It carries the ferocious power of Primordial Remnant!

Spreading in all directions!

This reminded most of the people present of unpleasant memories.

Their expressions changed involuntarily.

Some were trembling all over, their faces showing terror!

"Damn it, how did they catch up with us?"

"Those are the three overlords of the secret realm; even the Zheng Clan has some trouble dealing with them..."

"No, that's not right!"

"They didn't come in; this palace complex is taboo to them!"

"Haha, they can't get in!"

"Don't be afraid, it's stable, it's completely stable!"

We're safe!

"It's only temporary. I estimate those Primordial Variant Species will stay there."

"They're waiting for us to leave, only to walk right into their trap!"

"This..."

"What should we do then? What if we get this opportunity but don't live to enjoy it...?"

"Hmm, look, there are other cultivators too. Their robes are quite intact!"

"They seem completely unharmed! And they seem to be even faster than us!"

"What happened?"

"It feels like something's missing?"

"Hmm? That's a bit strange. Aren't there also the Immovable Bright Emperor Clan and that Primordial Alien Race?"

Where did they go?

"No way, they wouldn't be heading to the center... would they...?"

"These forces came from two different directions!"

"Didn't these people encounter any overlords of the secret realm?"

"Did I just get lucky?"

"It shouldn't be that. I think they probably took care of that overlord..."

"What's the point of guessing? Just grab someone and ask them!"

One of the cultivators looked furious and extremely dissatisfied!

Some are quite strong!

I couldn't resist reaching out to grab those coming from other directions!

After some questioning, they were shaken once again!

"What?"

"A giant black python overlord is dead! It was slain by the Ming Emperor Clan using Forbidden Artifact!"

"That group of people!"

"We have now reached the deepest part of that palace..."

"The Mighty Bull Demon and the Golden Sheep Clan, those alien prodigies, have also gone in!"

"And leading them was..."

"Jiang Yi? The Emperor Son Jiang?"

"That one, who claims to have the Emperor's Bearing, comes from the Phoenix Heaven Ancient Sect?"

He's here too?!

"They encountered a black bear, and it was Emperor Son Jiang who killed it!"

"How is that possible?!"

Someone exclaimed in surprise, their voice filled with disbelief.

Before long, the leaders of those major forces arrived!

I heard that too!

"Let's go, let's go deeper into the palace complex!"

The young master of the Zheng Clan was very decisive. After making his decision, he immediately spotted his target and rushed there.

Fellow travelers!

It was that old servant with dragon horns; he was actually a Primordial Variant Species.

Black dragon.

Within its body lies the bloodline of Ancient True Dragon!

"Let's go too!"

Seeing this, the leaders of the Meteorite Pavilion were naturally unwilling to fall behind.

Get up and leave immediately!

The same applies to the Three Great Blessed Lands...

These various forces seem to be maintaining a tacit understanding.

That means only the leader should go!

They are powerful and have a better chance of seizing the opportunity!

Moreover, only they are capable of obtaining that inheritance opportunity!

It could only be them!

As for the others--

Unworthy!!!

The others, as a second choice, scattered in all directions.

Begin exploring those palaces that appear dilapidated, some even on the verge of collapse.

The leaders of the three forces are all moving very quickly!

In less than fifteen minutes, they had already approached the depths of the palace complex.

Just by looking up, you can see a vast forest of steles, eight stories high.

Something's not right!

Some people's eyes narrowed slightly!

From this place, one could sense the lingering chaotic energy in the air.

A variety of meanings intertwined, as if a fierce collision had occurred!

"A major battle has broken out here!"

Some people looked down at the ground, where there were potholes and cracks in some places.

There were even some ashes from the fire!

It's hard not to notice!

Someone is dead!

"It must be those alien races who clashed with the Immovable Bright Emperor Clan!"

"They even had a major battle!"

"They're incredibly fast!"

"I wonder which side lost?"

"Look! That seems to be a follower of the Immovable Bright Emperor Clan, and he's dead!"

"It looked like his head had been sliced off with a single stroke!"

"On the mangled body, there were two large, bloody holes."

"It looks like it was pushed out by the corner and pierced right through!"

"It should be the Demon Ox Clan and the Golden Sheep Clan!"

"Could it be that they, the outcasts, won?"

Some people felt a slight chill run down their spines, and a sense of vigilance rose within them.

"We didn't find any corpses of the Ming Emperor Clan, but there were some ashes on the ground."

"This shouldn't be the work of the Ming Emperor Clan!"

"Walk!!!"

"Let's get into the Stele Forest first!"

"Judging from the scenery here and the ancient inscriptions on that stone tablet, this must be the sacred site of our human race's sages!"

"They, being of a different race, may not be able to obtain it!"

"Wasn't there supposed to be another one, the Jiang Emperor's Emperor Son Jiang from the Phoenix Heaven Ancient Sect?"

"So what? He might not even get it!"

"However, we still need to be careful and not be careless..."

"The opportunities here depend on your own abilities!"

Someone's eyes were gleaming!

One of the prodigies revealed an eager look and quickly led his men into the Stele Forest.

Exactly the same, after entering!

An immense, unseen force descended, causing their bodies to stiffen instantly.

Similarly, it was also suppressed!

On the other side!

Jiang Yi and his two companions had already climbed up the ranks, but unfortunately—

I still haven't seen any passing down of tradition!

Up to the fifth floor!
