The spell warriors wore large black and red robes and wore masks, revealing only their eyes. No one knew their true appearances.
The spell warrior at the front took out a white command medallion and said, "This white command medallion is used to inspect the list of cultivators entering Bright Moon Phoenix City."
The white command medallion was only used for inspection, while the black command medallion represented that the spell warriors could act first and report later.
There was also a red command medallion. Once it was displayed, it would seal off an area of several hundred kilometers.
The Legalists had always been impartial and followed the laws of primal chaos. If a spell warrior were to violate these laws, it would be an additional crime.
Not long after, the captain returned with a jade slip. One of the spell warriors received it, but he didn't immediately examine it. Instead, he took out a magic mirror and shined it on the jade slip. Soon, the formation patterns on the mirror began to move and a dense array of names appeared on its surface, but it only flashed for a moment before disappearing.
During the inspection, a mid-grade spell warrior beside the spell warrior asked, "Are there any remaining stowaways on the ship?"
"Reporting to my lord, all of the cultivators in the cabin have identity medallions. Everything is recorded in the list."
The captain submissively said, "As for the stowaways, I am not sure."
Just as he finished speaking, the spell warrior in charge of inspecting the list returned the Jade Slips to him and said, "Reporting to my lord, there are no abnormalities in the list of names on the Jade Slips."
The high-grade spell warrior at the front swept his gaze over everyone and said, "As usual, those who enter Bright Moon Phoenix City must have clean backgrounds. Stowaways must die. If you come out now, you will only be locked up for a few years. If you enter the city with an identity medallion that doesn't match your identity, you will be imprisoned by the formation. Not only will your cultivation be damaged, but in serious cases, you will even be killed. It would be bad to lose your life."
All of the cultivators present began to tremble. When he saw that no cultivators had come forward, the spell warrior put away the jade slip and returned to the flying boat. He continued to search for the other boat. At that moment, the cultivators on the flying boat finally let out a sigh of relief.
Ye Tianze's heart was beating like a drum. He asked a nearby cultivator, "That high grade spell warrior, what did he mean by 'die'?"
This was a bull demon cultivator. Hearing Ye Tianze's words, he was a little curious and asked, "Is this your first time in Phoenix Bright Moon City?"
Seeing Ye Tianze nod, the ox demon cultivator continued, "Phoenix Bright Moon City is different from other places. The so-called clean background means that you have not violated the Law of Primal Chaos. As for Brightmoon Phoenix City's spell formation, it is directly linked to the Laws of Primal Chaos. The spell warriors will not be lenient towards stowaways who have changed their identity medallions. If they don't come out of their own accord, the flying boat will pass through the spell formation and the cultivator will be identified based on the number of people who have been inspected. If their identities don't match or they aren't on the list, then they will be miserable …. "
Seeing Ye Tianze's unsightly expression, this Ox Demon cultivator asked, "What's wrong? Don't tell me you really want to sneak in?"
Ye Tianze replied, "That's not it. It's just strange."
"That's good. Phoenix Bright Moon City has a Heavenly Stairway that leads to the heavens. Cultivators who have violated the Laws of Primal Chaos have no right to climb the Heavenly Stairway. Although, there aren't many people who can rely on the Heavenly Stairway to reach the heavens."
The Ox Demon cultivator continued, "However, the benefits of climbing the Heavenly Stairway are enormous. It is also a path left behind by the first generation Lord of the Opposite Shore."
"What benefits?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Aside from the Azure Cloud Market, the Heavenly Stairway can temper one's body. The Azure Cloud Market is located in the middle section of the Heavenly Stairway." The Ox Demon cultivator continued, "Most importantly, the higher you climb, the more you will be able to obtain boundless Origin Qi in addition to tempering your body. That is the Origin Qi of the heavens."
Ye Tianze understood.
It was also at this moment that the flying boat set sail again. Ye Tianze began to feel nervous. He did not know if the nameplate that Tie Daniu had reconstructed for him could avoid detection from the formation.
The name on the nameplate was Ao Xin. He was now a Dragon.
After waiting for nearly five days, it was finally their turn to enter the passage that resembled a door of profound light. There were too many cultivators who wanted to enter Phoenix Bright Moon City.
"This Phoenix Bright Moon City is the only path that leads to the Skypiercing Mountain. The other areas have restrictions that can instantly kill Limitless Dao cultivators. There are two ways for stowaways to enter Phoenix Bright Moon City. One is to cross the restrictions. It's said that someone has found a shortcut inside to avoid the restrictions. The other is to forge an identity nameplate and cheat the Laws of Primal Chaos. "
When the flying boat entered the passage, the Ox Demon looked at him meaningfully, as if he was hinting at something.
However, Ye Tianze had no intention of leaving. It was too late to leave now, just like the door of profound light.
There were also lights in the passage that swept across the flying boat, but it was very slow. Ye Tianze could clearly sense that some of the cultivators' expressions were not right. Clearly, they had forged identity nameplates just like him.
"Argh …" A wretched cry rang out. Ye Tianze looked over to see a cultivator suddenly reduced to ashes.
The scream did not come from this cultivator, but from the cultivator beside him. He was clearly frightened.
Then, the entire flying boat continued to emit such screams, causing a commotion. Some cultivators simply fled, while others walked towards the stern with terrified expressions.
However, no one sympathized with them. Most of the cultivators looked like they were watching a show.
"Why? Why are we not qualified to climb the Skypiercing Stairway after violating the Laws of Primal Chaos? Why?" A voice was heard.
When Ye Tianze looked over, he saw a cultivator from the Dragon Eagle Clan holding a nameplate and roaring at the sweeping light.
Only his voice was left in the cabin, but that light mercilessly swept through his body, and then he turned into ashes.
"You've violated the Laws of Primal Chaos, yet you still want to enter the Phoenix Bright Moon City. You're really courting death. Those Iron Badger Clan are really harmful."
The Ox Demon Clan cultivator next to him said.
"What do you mean?" Ye Tianze asked curiously.
"Only the Iron Badger Clan would dare to modify an identity nameplate. However, the Iron Badger Clan does not have full confidence in deceiving the Laws of Primal Chaos. They only have a ten percent chance at most!"
The Ox Demon Clan cultivator said, "Therefore, if they want to enter the Phoenix Bright Moon City, they can only gamble on this ten percent chance. Taking the so-called shortcut will only lead to certain death."
"Can't we enter the Phoenix Bright Moon City after violating the Laws of Primal Chaos? Isn't that very unfair? "Ye Tianze asked.
The Ox Demon Clan cultivator looked at him in astonishment. From just now until now, he had already determined that Ye Tianze was still a fledgling.
"That's not the case. If you turn yourself in to the School of Legalism, you'll be punished and imprisoned. Then, you can wash away your crimes and start anew. At that time, you won't be punished when you enter the Phoenix Bright Moon City again."
The Ox Demon Clan cultivator said, "The most important thing is to have a clean background. However, not all cultivators can enter the Central Domain. Even if they enter the Central Domain, they'll still be plundered by the various great civilizations along the way. Many cultivators have hoarded purple gold coins for hundreds or thousands of years just to enter the Phoenix Bright Moon City. However, nearly ninety-nine percent of these purple gold coins are spent on the road. Even if they enter the Phoenix Bright Moon City, they'll still be poor. Inside the Phoenix Bright Moon City, they have to pay taxes. If they can't pay, they'll be expelled."
Ye Tianze immediately thought of his experiences along the way. A Kun Peng Flying Ship ticket cost ten thousand immortal purple gold coins.
It was nothing to him, but it was different for the cultivators of the other civilizations in the myriad of worlds. Moreover, they had to cultivate along the way. Everything on the flying ship cost money.
