The opening of the Exalted Divine Palace was akin to a grand ceremony of martial dao, one that would affect all of the Daluotian people.
By the time the major sects and wandering cultivators of the four regions had all arrived, the edge of the Central Province was already in an uproar.
Although entering the Central Region meant that you would have to face endless slaughter, it was impossible for you to escape.
However, no one wanted to give up on the opportunities that lay within.
Therefore, even though they knew that participating in the Exalted Divine Palace competition would result in an extremely high death rate, many were still unwilling to give up this opportunity.
For these cultivators who had cultivated to the Truefire Spirit-Refinement realm and the Elucidation of Heaven and Earth realm, the pursuit of power was something they could never give up.
Half a day later, it was noon.
Endless Dao essence rose from the Dao Gate's side, forming countless purple clouds in the air that shrouded everyone's heads.
The Yin and Yang Qi were hovering in the air, supporting a figure wrapped in Taoist Connotation.
This was the Dao Master of the Three Pristine Temple, the foremost figure of the Daluotian Dao Sect!
"The Exalted Divine Palace opens for one month. Life and death are up to fate, and opportunities ultimately depend on oneself. Please enter, everyone. "
As the Dao Master's slightly aged voice fell, he gently waved the horsetail whisk in his hand. In an instant, the great formation covering the entire Central Province blossomed with brilliant light that shot straight into the sky.
A glowing portal opened in front of everyone's eyes, and several old Taoists from the Three Pristine Temple stood there to maintain order, handing out a token to each person who entered.
The Exalted Divine Palace was shared by all the sects, but most of the formations outside the Central Province were built by the Three Pristine Temple. Therefore, every time the Exalted Divine Palace opened, the Taoists from the Three Pristine Temple were the ones in charge.
Of course, the Three Pristine Temple's strength also played a role in keeping the experts present in check.
Otherwise, the major sects of the four regions would have endless grievances with each other, the rogue cultivators would be unruly, and the descendants of Gu Zun would be extremely arrogant. If there were no experts at the level of the Three Pristines Temple to control them, they would probably fight among themselves before they could even enter the Central Province and start fighting.
Chu Xiu sent a voice transmission to Lu Fengxian and the others in a low voice, "After entering the Middle Province, do not try to show off. There are countless Daluotian experts. There are even some who are planning to become Martial Immortals. If you cannot defeat them, just run away. There is no shame in that."
Before the others could say anything, Lu Jiang He said proudly, "Don't worry, when it comes to escaping, I have never been afraid of anyone!"
As soon as he said that, even Lu Sanjin and the people from the Emperor Sky Pavilion looked at Lu Jiang He in surprise.
Was this something to be proud of?
Mei Qinglian covered her face and stood behind Chu Xiu. She did not want to stay with this embarrassing guy.
Although Lu Jianghe's people were a bit unreliable, Chu Xiu truly believed him. With the miraculous power of the Blood Demon Divine Technique, even if an expert of the first level of Martial Immortal were to come, they would not be able to kill Lu Jianghe.
The others also had their own techniques. Although they were not the strongest, they had no problem staying alive.
Shang Tianliang and Wei Shuya were experienced and ruthless. This kind of chaotic situation was perfect for them.
Although Mei Qinglian was the weakest, her Karmic Fire of the Red Lotus could restrain the characteristics of the Demonic Ghosts to a certain extent. Just by killing the Demonic Ghosts, they could accumulate many Soul Crystals.
Lu Fengxian was the one that Chu Xiu was least worried about.
She had shocking luck. Chu Xiu even guessed that Lu Fengxian might be able to obtain some treasures after entering the Central Prefecture.
After lining up, Chu Xiu was the first to receive a badge. He gestured to the crowd and took the lead to enter the Central Prefecture.
When the white light from the Teleportation Formation dispersed, Chu Xiu's God Domain immediately spread out. A misty domain enveloped the surroundings.
This was also a small technique that Zhong Qiushui taught Chu Xiu. Or rather, it was an experience.
As the Teleportation Formation in the Central Prefecture was random, there was no way to be sure if you would be teleported to the place where the person who entered first was after you were teleported.
After entering the Central Prefecture, there would be a huge battle. There were enemies on all sides. Therefore, to prevent being ambushed as soon as you teleported, you must immediately spread out your domain to defend yourself.
However, this was only a small probability. At the very least, Chu Xiu was not so unlucky. Or rather, the others were not so unlucky.
Putting away his domain, Chu Xiu looked around. The scene in front of him was somewhat beyond Chu Xiu's expectations.
He thought that a place like the Central Prefecture, where demons and ghosts ran rampant, would be like a region. In the end, who would have thought that what appeared in front of Chu Xiu was actually a stretch of green water and green mountains. The scenery was very pleasant.
The Heaven Earth Essence Energy here was abnormally rich. Moreover, it was not ordinary Heaven Earth Essence Energy. It did not contain any different attributes. Instead, it was the purest Heaven Earth Essence Energy that was close to the Origin. Daoism, Buddhism, and Demonic Dao. Martial artists who cultivated any attribute could refine it without any worries.
No wonder there were so many martial artists who flocked to this place despite knowing that it was incomparably dangerous all these years.
The existence of the Central Prefecture broke the rules of this world. Cultivating here was equivalent to cheating. One could ignore the restrictions of the rules of heaven and earth. At the same time, it also meant that there were no bottlenecks!
Chu Xiu tried to step into the air and stand at the highest point to see the situation in this region. However, even if he raised his strength to the limit, he could only hover a few dozen feet in the air. He could not take another step.
Chu Xiu frowned. This should be because of the Spirit Array in the Central Prefecture.
In order to prevent the Demon Ghosts from escaping, the entire Central Prefecture's Spirit Array was like a huge cover that covered the entire Central Prefecture. But now, it seemed that this cover was a bit too low.
Unable to step into the air, Chu Xiu randomly chose a direction to walk in.
The entire Central Prefecture was as big as two counties. Thousands of people were thrown into it. It could be said that the land was vast but the population was sparse. Chu Xiu walked for half an hour and did not see anyone else. However, the scene that appeared in front of him was incomparably strange.
In front of Chu Xiu was a small village. It was crisscrossed by paths and smoke curled up from chimneys. It was like a paradise.
In front of the small village, there was an old farmer who was hoeing the fields. When he saw Chu Xiu, the old farmer showed a kind smile to Chu Xiu. "Guest, you came here in a hurry. Why don't you rest in the village? The sky is getting dark. It's not safe to travel at night. "
Chu Xiu looked at the old farmer coldly. This thing was a Demon Ghost?
There was not a single living person in the Central Prefecture. Now that this village had appeared in front of Chu Xiu, even an idiot would know what it was.
However, in his perception, there was nothing wrong with this village. There was nothing wrong with the old farmer in front of him. They were just ordinary people. There was nothing strange about them.
It was no wonder that Zhong Qiushui had told him not to trust his eyes or his senses in the Central Plains. Everything could be fake.
Chu Xiu did not choose to attack immediately. Instead, he revealed a smile and said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, old sir."
For those cultivators at the True Fire Spirit Refinement Realm, every step they took in the Central Province was filled with danger and danger, but for Chu Xiu, his greatest opponents here were always humans, not these Demonic Ghosts.
However, he wanted to understand the depths of these Demon Ghosts. After all, he had only heard Zhong Qiushui's vague description. He still had a vague impression of these Demon Ghosts.
The old farmer brought Chu Xiu into the village. The entire village was abnormally peaceful. The women and children, and the men who were busy farming, all had warm smiles on their faces when they saw Chu Xiu. The warmth was simply … strange!
The old farmer brought Chu Xiu into a thatched hut and shouted, "Old woman, there's a guest. Quickly pour a bowl of water."
An old woman came over with a bowl of water. She smiled and came in front of Chu Xiu. She handed it to him and said, "Guest, this is the well water that our village dug. It's very sweet. Please try it."
Chu Xiu looked into the bowl. It was not water, but a bowl of yellow and turbid liquid. It emitted the stench of corpses. There was even a blackened broken finger with a ring on it. There were two Sanskrit words written on it. Coincidentally, Chu Xiu recognized them — Shiva!
Chu Xiu frowned. What did this mean? Who knew how many years ago, someone from the Sanskrit Shiva Temple died here?
Of course, Chu Xiu would not drink this kind of thing. He just looked at the old woman coldly.
Seeing that Chu Xiu did not drink it, the old woman still smiled and said, "Guest, why don't you drink it? Then I'll feed you myself."
As she spoke, the old woman actually brought the bowl of corpse water to Chu Xiu's mouth.
"You're courting death!"
A cold glint flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes. With a flash of Earth Energy, the old woman's head was directly chopped off.
But the strange thing was that not a single drop of blood flowed out of the corpse. The head that fell to the ground still had a smile on it. It said, "Guest, what's the meaning of this? Do you think we're dirty? "
The smile was still the same, but at this moment, the scene was chilling.
The old farmer looked at Chu Xiu from the corner of his eyes. "We entertained you well, but you killed us. This is your fault, Guest."
"You're playing tricks!"
The Earth Energy around Chu Xiu suddenly erupted, directly crushing the old woman, the old farmer, and the entire thatched cottage into pieces.
But in the next moment, all the villagers surrounded Chu Xiu. With strange smiles on their faces, they held bowls of corpse water in their hands and walked toward Chu Xiu.
"Guest, have a bowl of water."
"Have a bowl of water."
"Have a bowl of water."
The demonic voice rang in Chu Xiu's ears and directly seeped into the bottom of his heart, making Chu Xiu's state of mind unknowingly feel extremely irritated.
"Go to hell!"
The fluctuations of the God Realm instantly erupted to the maximum, crushing everyone into pieces.
That feeling was extremely real. Flesh and blood splattered and evaporated, and vitality dissipated. It was as if Chu Xiu had really killed hundreds of innocent and weak villagers in an instant.
Everyone, along with the entire village, was completely killed by Chu Xiu. But in the next moment, before Chu Xiu could even react, he was standing in front of the village again. The old farmer smiled kindly at Chu Xiu. "Guest, you've come here in a hurry. Why don't you enter the village to rest? It's getting dark, and it's not safe to travel at night. "
