The Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord naturally knew why the crowd had come. He told them very calmly that this place was the previous cultivation training ground of the Great Emperor. The Great Emperor’s relic was located here.

“If that is so, can Palace Lord allow us from the outside world to also pay tribute to the splendor of the Great Emperor? May we also see the relic left behind by Ziwei the Great?” asked someone straight away. They were already here, so there was no need to beat around the bush. It was best to speak directly about their goal for coming here.

The crowd nodded in agreement as they looked at the Palace Lord. From the look in their eyes, it was understood that they also had similar thoughts.

“You may do so,” said Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord. He still agreed to their request very readily. This caused the various cultivators to feel somewhat strange.

Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord was too easygoing; it was as though he would agree to anything they said.

Aside from eliminating a top figure who came into conflict with them, Ziwei Imperial Palace had been very welcoming and did not turn them away.

“However, the place where the relic of Ziwei the Great resides has been passed down for generations. It is the holy land of our Ziwei Segmentum. Even here, it is not a place that just anyone may enter. It will only open once after many years to allow the most outstanding figures in the segment to enter.”

The Palace Lord slowly continued, “Also, because the place where Ziwei the Great’s relic resides is ancient, it is somewhat unstable. Hence, in the Ziwei Segmentum, top figures don’t enter into that place. Now that the seal to the Ziwei Segmentum has been opened and we are connected to the outside world, I rule over the segment and uphold the will of Ziwei the Great. I will allow the divine light of Ziwei the Great to shine on even more cultivators than before. Hence, even though all of you are not members of the Ziwei Segmentum, I can allow all of you to receive the same treatment as the cultivators here.”

When the crowd heard his words, they vaguely understood his meaning. It seemed that this Palace Lord was also calculative. He gave some leeway, but he similarly set down restrictions. He set it so that only their most prominent figures could enter, using the laws of the Ziwei Segmentum to bind them.

Whether or not any rules he mentioned were true was not important. The Ziwei Segmentum was under his jurisdiction. He himself was the rule maker. Were rules themselves important?

“Palace Lord, overall, what do you mean to say?” someone asked.

Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord looked around at the crowd and said, “Since all of you have come, I will allow all the cultivators from the top forces to choose their finest Renhuangs to enter the divine temple where Ziwei the Great previously cultivated. However, they must be cultivators with flawless Great Paths, and they cannot be peak Renhuangs with ninth-tier cultivation.”

“How about it?” the Palace Lord asked as he looked at the crowd.

He stood at the top of a flight of stairs. Divine light shone from his body. His star-like eyes still bore an indifferent look. His words had already prevented most of the cultivators here from venturing in, including the giant level figures.

They had been held at bay by the words of the Palace Lord. The other party had no intention of letting them inside.

The other party also said that Ziwei the Great had previously cultivated in this divine temple.

They had come from the shattered Ziwei Realm. All of them wanted to seek out the secrets of Ziwei the Great. The giant level figures similarly had such an intense desire to unravel this mystery. For them, such an opportunity was even more precious.

However, Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord was wary of them and did not allow them to enter.

In such a way, it was their turn to consider whether they wanted to accept his terms.

Since the other party had given them leeway and allowed the top monstrous figures of the various forces to enter the Great Emperor’s relic, would they concede to his restrictions?

For a moment, the crowd seemed very quiet. None of them responded. They were also originally from various forces. They were not just a small group of people, so their opinions would differ.

“Huh?” Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord saw that the crowd did not respond, so he asked, “Do you all have any opinions about this?”

“We are all from the outside world. We also wish to pay tribute to the splendor of the Great Emperor recorded in the history books. Why must Palace Lord deny us such an opportunity and set restrictions on us?” someone asked. Clearly, they did not want to agree to the conditions set by the Palace Lord.

Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord glanced at the person who had spoken. He then said, “Very well. Since you disagree with my suggestion, then what I mentioned before no longer concerns you. Sir, please leave.”

When the person heard the words of the Palace Lord, he narrowed his eyes. He was the first to object. There should be many people of the same opinion as him. However, before the others could agree with him, the Palace Lord immediately spoke and banished him!

It was deterrence again!

He knew that he had become an example for the others.

The cultivators from the other forces revealed strange looks. Initially, some wished to speak. Yet, when they saw the dominant nature of Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord, they kept their mouths shut for now and instead looked at the person who had spoken.

The person who had spoken did not move. From behind Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord, a few figures rose into the sky and stood in the air above the crowd. Their gazes landed on the person who had spoken. One of them said, “Palace Lord has decreed. Sir, please bring along your members and leave the Imperial Palace.”

They emanated faint pressure from their bodies. When the cultivator from the top force saw this scene, his expression was ashen. He was the first to be banished.

He clearly knew that the other party might not hold back in dealing with him if he resisted. After all, he was to be an example for the others.

Before this, a top cultivator had perished in the Imperial Palace as a deterrent for the other cultivators.

“Let’s go,” the person said in an ice-cold tone. He led a group of people and rose into the sky. He then turned and left the place without causing any trouble.

With just his own power, he could not cause much of a pushback. If he forcefully resisted, he would end up dead the moment he got careless.

He did not wish to take that risk; hence, he immediately left.

The crowd glanced at the leaving silhouettes. Was this considered being aware of current affairs or lacking boldness?

However, the might of Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord made them feel threatened.

“If anyone else has any differing opinions, you can also choose to leave like him. The Imperial Palace definitely will not stop you,” declared the Palace Lord loudly as he stood at the top of the stairs. He seemed to be asking for their opinions, but he would not listen to them at all. Those who opposed him would be banished.

Clearly, the other party would allow them to send their members into the relic. However, they needed to follow his rules.

Most crucially was that the ability of Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord himself could already overwhelm everyone present here. No one could stand against him directly.

“Alright, I agree to Palace Lord’s suggestion,” a calm and indifferent voice cried out. Some people began to concede. Or rather, it should be said that they wanted to take a step back first. They would let their juniors enter the relic of Ziwei the Great and take a look around first before making any decision for the future.

“I also have no objections,” people declared one by one. Very soon, more than half of the forces had agreed, declaring to have no objections and agreeing to the rules set by the Palace Lord.

After a short while, the various cultivators fell silent. Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord glanced at the crowd and said, “The divine temple behind me is where Ziwei the Great cultivated back then. Inside here, there is a relic left behind by the Great Emperor. Now, select your candidates and let them follow me into the divine temple.”

Actually, there was no need for a selection.

The other party had already laid down the conditions and restrictions. Those who fulfilled the conditions would naturally not hesitate to step forward. Hence, cultivators with flawless Great Paths stepped forward one by one. There were no peak figures with ninth-tier cultivation.

“Go on,” Emperor Nan said to Ye Futian and the rest.

“Be careful,” Xiao Dingtian cautioned Xiao Muyu. Immediately, Ye Futian’s group stepped forward. Among their group, most of the cultivators were of the allowed level. There were many from Four Corner Village. Hence, this rule gave them a huge advantage.

Of course, they still did not know what the situation in the relic was like.

However, they did not need to worry about any schemes. After all, even the ruler of the Ziwei Segmentum would not dare to offend all the forces from the outside world in one go. If he did so, he would probably bring about the destruction of the entire Ziwei Segmentum.

Since that was the case, the people who stepped forward were the finest Renhuangs of the various forces. These Renhuangs all stepping out at the same time was a majestic sight to behold.

Ziwei Imperial Palace Palace Lord glanced over the crowd of cultivators who had stepped forward. He then turned and said, “Follow me then!”
