(A four-thousand-character chapter)
"I am most pleased that you all arrived as agreed."
The Taiyi Dao Master wore a gentle expression, like a kindly elder, as his gaze swept softly over everyone below.
Notably, his gaze did not linger any longer on Ye Li.
It passed straight over him, and the Taiyi Dao Master continued with a smile:
"As you know, cosmic boundary heavens of this kind are extremely sensitive to the arrival of outsiders."
"Foreign cultivators entering one may not only have their strength suppressed by its laws to less than a tenth of its normal level, but may also be killed outright by the boundary heaven's will."
At this, the expressions of several Dao Lords from other realms turned rather ugly.
Their strength would be suppressed, and the world's will would try to kill them?
How was that any different from marching to their deaths?
Seeing their grave expressions, the Taiyi Dao Master smiled gently and reassured them:
"However, there is no need to worry excessively."
"Since I am the one sending you, I will naturally ensure your safety."
"As you cross the realm barrier, I will personally suppress that boundary heaven's awareness, temporarily blinding it so it cannot sense precisely where you arrive."
"But this is not entirely foolproof."
The Taiyi Dao Master's smile faded slightly as he said:
"Even a blind man is still alive. The first few hours after your arrival will be when the boundary heaven's awareness is most alert."
"During that time, you must not use any Divine Abilities or methods belonging to the outside world."
"Otherwise, you will be exposed immediately."
"After several hours, once the World-Heaven Will has searched without finding anything, you will have blended into that world. Then you may freely use your abilities without reservation."
His words settled.
