The magnificent palace that appeared before everyone's eyes was pitch-black in color, and the walls were built with black bricks and stones, giving off a deep and eerie feeling at first glance.
"This is the Asura Ancient Palace, the holy land of our Shura County. Generations of Shura County geniuses have come here and obtained great opportunities."
The Asura Duke, who was faintly discernible in the black clouds, said lightly. With a wave of his hand, he brought everyone to the front of the Asura Ancient Palace.
He brought over a hundred people to the platform at the entrance of the ancient palace and walked toward the entrance.
Long Yu and the others also stood on the platform at the entrance. They glanced around and saw that the entire ancient hall was suspended in the air. It was even higher than the Heavenly Mandate Island and the other floating islands.
If it wasn't for the Asura Duke, it would have taken them more than half a day to get here.
"I don't know why, but this palace gives me an ominous feeling."
"This is the holy land of Shura County. There are countless opportunities and treasures here. Why do I have an ominous feeling?"
"I don't feel good either. Is it because the Divine Text I comprehended isn't of the Shadow attribute?"
"It seems like that is the reason. If you don't comprehend the Divine Text of the Shadow attribute, the Asura Ancient Palace seems to reject you."
Everyone discussed and soon discovered that the ancient palace gave everyone a different feeling.
"Princess, how do you feel?"
Jia Banxian asked with a frown.
"I feel very good. It's as if there is something important waiting for me inside … What does everyone think?"
Shu Chan said as she raised her head and looked at Long Yu first.
"I feel good too."
Long Yu nodded and said, "It's probably because I'm more compatible with the Divine Text of the Shadow attribute."
"I don't feel good."
Jia Banxian looked like he was about to cry. "I comprehended the Divine Text of Light. Will I be kicked out of the ancient palace?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Everyone who enters the Asura Ancient Palace will obtain their own opportunities. The only difference is what kind of opportunity it is."
Shu Chan comforted him, then looked at Man Xin, Chi Huo, and Liu Yuan, who were standing beside Long Yu.
If the Asura Ancient Palace gave off a feeling that it was based on the attributes of the Divine Runes comprehended by the crowd, then it was hard to say for Man Xin, Chi Huo, and Liu Yuan, because the three of them had yet to comprehend the power of the Divine Runes!
"I feel good."
Man Xin said with a hearty laugh.
"I feel like this ancient palace is rejecting me."
Chi Huo said with a frown.
"I'm fine. I don't feel anything special."
Liu Yuan continued.
"Is it based on your physique? Chi Huo has a flaming nine-tailed true spirit, so he's definitely more compatible with the power of fire attribute divine characters … If that's the case, could it be that this Asura Ancient Palace is filled with the power of shadow attribute divine characters? That's why we have such a different feeling? "
Half Immortal Jia said with certainty, "It's very possible that martial cultivators who are compatible with the Shadow Attribute Divine Runes will be able to obtain good opportunities if they enter. As for people like me, it's very likely that I'll be sent away with some random items."
"No matter what, let's go in first. I don't know what will happen after we enter, so everyone should be careful."
Long Yu said in a low voice.
In the next moment, the Asura Duke's silhouette that was hidden in the dark clouds had already arrived at the entrance of the Asura Ancient Palace. The moment he lifted his hand, a burst of Asura divine rune energy shot out and poured into one of the grooves on the Asura Ancient Palace's stone door.
There were a total of a hundred and one grooves like this on the stone door. It was as if they had been specially prepared for each of them.
"All of you, come over here. Pour the strongest energy that you have comprehended into these grooves."
The Asura Duke ordered. Then, he said, "Don't try to act smart. Don't think that our Holy Land only benefits those who are compatible with the Shadow Attribute Divine Runes … No matter what energy you pour into these grooves, you will obtain the opportunity you deserve in the end!"
Following the Asura Duke's words, many of the young geniuses who were closer to the front became restless. One by one, they sprinted towards the entrance of the stone door. They wanted to pour the power they had comprehended into the groove on the stone door as quickly as possible.
Everyone knew that this segment would most likely affect who would be able to enter the Asura Ancient Palace. Moreover, it would definitely be closely related to what kind of opportunity they would obtain after entering.
However, just as they were about to reach the stone door of the Asura Ancient Palace, a majestic ancient sword suddenly fell from the sky. With a loud bang, it landed in front of these young geniuses, knocking them back. Each of them was sent flying dozens of feet away, spitting out mouthfuls of blood!
"Who is it?"
This scene caused the Asura Duke's expression to change. Behind him, Long Yu and the others, who were about to rush forward, all stopped in their tracks and raised their heads.
With a single glance, they saw another group of people. All of them wore golden robes, and there were more than fifty of them. Their faces were filled with boundless arrogance as they landed at the entrance of the Asura Ancient Palace.
"It's the people from the Tianqin Dynasty."
Shu Chan immediately whispered, her eyes filled with vigilance.
"The people from the Tianqin Dynasty?"
The faces of Long Yu and the others beside Shu Chan changed. They didn't think that the people from the Tianqin Dynasty would suddenly come here, to the holy land of the Asura County!
The Asura County was part of the Tianqin Dynasty's territory. However, the people of the Tianqin Dynasty usually didn't meddle in the affairs of the various counties.
Why did they send so many people to the Asura Ancient Palace today? And from the looks of it, they were all from the younger generation?
"What business do you all have here?"
The Asura Duke, of course, was in charge of the situation at this time. He stopped opening the Asura Ancient Palace and calmly looked at the group of fifty people in the sky.
"You are the Asura Duke."
Among the group of fifty people, the leader wore a golden robe and had the most arrogant expression. He looked like a teenager, but he already had the cultivation of the Imperial Mystic Realm!
"I heard that once every twenty years, the Asura County will open the holy land of the Asura Ancient Palace, allowing the younger generation of the county to obtain many opportunities … Today, this prince has personally come to the Asura Ancient Palace to announce that the quota of one hundred people to enter the Asura Ancient Palace will be halved! This prince will take all of the fifty vacancies. "
The young man in the golden robe had an arrogant expression. Even when he looked at the Asura Duke, his eyes were filled with disdain and contempt. It was obvious that he didn't put the Asura Duke in his eyes.
Moreover, from his tone, it was clear that he wasn't negotiating with the Asura Duke, but ordering him!
The moment the young man in the golden robe said this, Long Yu and the others felt a chill in their hearts. This young man called himself 'this prince'. Just who was he? How could he be so arrogant and directly demand 50 spots to enter the Asura Ancient Palace?
The people of the Tianqin Dynasty were indeed powerful, but the person in front of them was the Asura Duke, the king of this county!
Even if he was from the Tianqin Dynasty, he couldn't completely disregard the Asura Duke, right?
"So it's Your Royal Highness, the Sixth Prince."
The Asura Duke obviously recognized the young man's identity. He smiled faintly and said, "Your Royal Highness, the Sixth Prince has such a precious body. It is my honor to have you visit my Asura County … However, the Asura Ancient Palace is the holy land of the Asura County. Isn't it a little inappropriate for Your Royal Highness to muster such a large force to fight for a spot?"
"Enough nonsense. Asura Duke, if you dare to resist, do you believe that this prince will inform my Imperial Father and have the entire Asura County seized?"
The young man in the golden robe still had a disdainful look in his eyes. He didn't take the Asura Duke's words to heart.
"It's not that I want to resist, but this Asura Ancient Palace can only accommodate people of my Asura County …"
The Asura Duke heard this and immediately chuckled, "Even though Your Royal Highness is of noble status, this Asura Ancient Palace isn't a place you should come to."
"Impudent!"
Behind the young man in the golden robe, another young lady in the golden robe immediately rebuked. She pointed at the Asura Duke and said, "A mere Duke dares to act so arrogantly in front of a prince? Where is your sense of propriety?"
"Alright, Gold Charm, this Asura Duke can't see the situation clearly. It's not his fault. However, today, I will definitely take the 50 spots in the Asura Ancient Palace."
The young man in the golden robe was the Sixth Prince of the Tianqin Dynasty. He looked at the Asura Duke with disdain and said, "Asura Duke, this prince will fight with you. If you lose, you will naturally hand over the 50 spots. How about it?"
"There's no point in fighting this battle."
The Asura Duke waved his sleeves and said, "Since Your Royal Highness Sixth Prince wishes to enter our Asura Ancient Palace so much, then enter. However, this Duke will make it clear in advance that everything that happens after entering the ancient palace has nothing to do with this Duke, and it has nothing to do with the Asura County! If anything happens to you, don't let Tianqin Emperor blame you. Do you dare? "
"Why not?"
The Sixth Prince sneered and said, "You're just a mere Asura Duke. Do you really think that this prince is relying on my dead old man? What a joke. One day, this prince will surpass my dead old man and become the true emperor of the Tianqin Dynasty! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and said to the 50 people behind him without turning his head, "Everyone, get ready. The Asura Ancient Palace is here. Whatever opportunities you find inside will depend on your own abilities!"
"Hehe, understood. Your Royal Highness, I heard that there are many good things in the Asura Ancient Palace. This time, I will definitely take everything I can, hehe!"
"What good things can there be in this remote and desolate place? I'm afraid we won't even be able to find a Great Desolate-Level Warrior. It's already good enough to earn some pocket money. "
"If we meet some beautiful girls in the Asura County, can we take them away? I heard that the Asura Duke has a pretty daughter. She should be here today, right? "
"Isn't that right? She's really pretty. Look at that little mouth, it's really seductive! "
"Who's that beside the young princess? She's quite pretty too. It's not bad to play with her once! "
The people behind the young Sixth Prince discussed animatedly and laughed loudly. They didn't seem to care that the Asura County Martial Cultivators heard them.
As for Shu Chan, Long Yu, and the others, when they heard the blatant talk of these people, they were naturally enraged. However, even the Asura Duke couldn't do anything to these people. What could Long Yu and the others do?
