Amidst the swirling clouds and mist, within a void of nothingness, stood a grand, majestic palace building.
Divine brilliance filled the air while dao light spread like mist. Mysterious origin laws of the great dao cascaded down from the palace like a billion streams of holy radiance.
It was like a divine palace, a dwelling of celestial beings!
“That’s—?”
“Such rich great dao origin aura!”
“Why would there be a divine palace in the Nirvana of Transcendence?”
A chaotic clamor arose, and countless figures could be seen around the majestic palace, stretching endlessly as far as the eye could see.
Those were the experts who were qualified to enter Nirvana of Transcendence.
However, they all looked confused and bewildered.
As soon as they entered Nirvana of Transcendence, they were all teleported to this place.
Apart from the palace, nothing else was in sight. The thick fog shrouding the area created an unsettling atmosphere, putting everyone on edge.
“Look, those are disciples of Primordial Dao Court. They’ve gathered over there,” someone exclaimed.
All eyes turned to see men and women with extraordinary auras assembling together; they were unmistakably experts from the Primordial Dao Court.
“The disciples of Panwu, Heaven and Earth, All-Demon, Mythical Huang and other dao courts have also arrived...”
“There’s also fierce characters from the Great Ten Battle Clans and ancient imperial clans!”
Amid the clamor, the experts who had arrived at the Nirvana of Transcendence had begun to form alliances, split into factions, and gather with members of their own sects or clans.
The Nirvana of Transcendence was an unknown world that had never appeared throughout the ages. While it held unimaginable opportunities and fortunes, it was also fraught with incomparable dangers, so no one dared to let their guard down.
When the chance to form alliances arose, no one would choose to act alone.
As time went by, the atmosphere gradually grew quieter and calmer, even somewhat oppressive.
The experts scattered across this area were all from major forces within the starry sky and included cultivators of the lower five cultivation stages, Longevity Tribulation Kings, Saints, even quasi-Emperors...
A hierarchy of suppression and threat naturally existed between cultivators of different stages.
Some of those forces were even enemies, and sharing the same space felt like a face off between mortal foes.
If it weren’t for the fact that they hadn’t yet figured out the situation, they would have likely taken action already.
This place…where are we?
All gazes were fixed on the divine palace in the distance. No one could tell how tall or vast it was, only that it radiated a majestic and sacred aura.
It was enveloped in great dao law power and bathed in a cascading light, which added an air of mystery to it.
No matter how hard they tried to analyze it, they were unable to see through its mystery.
Someone whispered, “Emperors might be able to find some clues.”
“Oh, you're right, where are the Emperor-level big shots?” someone exclaimed.
Those words snapped everyone out of their astonishment, making them realize that not a single Emperor was present in this world.
The strange situation left many people feeling uneasy.
Even the disciples of the powerful forces such as the Great Six Courts and Great Ten Battle Clans turned pale.
The Emperor elders of their sects were their strongest pillars of support. They believed that, under their leadership, they would be protected in the mysterious and unknown Nirvana of Transcendence.
Who would have thought that…
None of their Emperor elders was around!
This was undoubtedly unexpected, leaving people even more perplexed.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, someone soared into the sky, turning into a streak of divine rainbow as they shot towards the distant palace.
Many experts shifted restlessly, eager to take action—or rather, they had already planned to do the same and investigate the palace.
PA!
Before the figure could get close, a divine chain formed from great dao laws lashed out, sending him flying. He was left with a bloody head and in a miserable state.
Audible gasps rang out.
Many people recognized the figure—it was a supreme quasi-Emperor from an ancient imperial clan. In this world where no Emperors existed, he was regarded as a pinnacle existence.
Despite that, he was blasted away like a fly!
All of a sudden, it fell utterly silent. The restless experts who were eager to take action immediately gave up on the idea of going forward to investigate.
“The entrance to the Nirvana of Transcendence has not yet closed, which means the palace likely is not opened yet.” From the Panwu Dao Court faction, Mi Wuya spoke calmly. His figure was slender and graceful and his eyes clear and bright.
“Leaving other things aside for now, the only thing certain for now is that Emperors have been teleported to other areas of Nirvana of Transcendence.”
Soft murmurs filled the air as everyone waited patiently.
Suddenly, someone asked, “Does anyone know if the most wanted criminal in the starry sky has come?”
Though no name was mentioned, everyone immediately guessed who it was, and their expressions changed.
Some gazes shifted to the person who had asked the question—a supreme quasi-Emperor from Primordial Dao Court named Yuwen Bin.
“If he’s here, then that question alone would have got you killed,” someone snorted coldly.
That sentence made all Primordial Dao Court experts furrow their brows, their eyes turning ice-cold. Someone actually dared to speak to them like that?
Did they not want to live?
Very quickly, they saw that the person who spoke was a carefree-looking young man.
“Xuan Jiuyin, a descendant of the master of the Xuan Clan!”
A commotion erupted as many people recognized the hemp-clothed youth.
Yuwen Bin uttered coldly, “During that epic chess game, you colluded with the wanted criminal and now you are speaking for him. Don’t tell me your Xuan Clan intends to disobey the orders of Heavenly Emperor Shi”
This was a huge accusation!
Xuan Jiuyin rolled his eyes and pointed at Yuwen Bin. “Just for that remark, you are dead in the Nirvana of Transcendence.”
Yuwen Bin’s face turned livid. He felt utterly humiliated to be pointed at and threatened in front of everyone.
He was about to say something when his fellow disciples stopped him.

Experts from all major forces in the starry sky were gathered in this area. If a fight broke out, it was very likely to bring some unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, it was unwise to rashly start a conflict without fully understanding the current situation in this world.
“Trash.” Seeing no response from the other party, Xuan Jiuyin let out a mocking sneer, which infuriated Yuwen Bin to the point his face flushed with rage and his teeth nearly shattered from clenching.
“Just keep your mouth shut.” Ling Kezi who was beside Xuan Jiuyin couldn’t help but remind him. “Better safe than sorry. If a battle really breaks out, I...I can’t help you with much.”
Xuan Jiuyin grumbled, “Look how cowardly you are! Don’t you see that I am standing up for Lin Xun? He’s our brother!”
“Does that mean you have decided to side with that wanted criminal no matter the consequences?” Suddenly, a chilling, deep voice rang out.
Over at the Holy Illumination Ancient Sect’s side, a man in black with a frosty, stern expression and pale skin asked aloud, his eyes flickering with unsettling green flames.
Feng Luozi!
An expert at the third level of the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage!
Upon recognizing him, many people narrowed their eyes.
Although countless experts from across the starry sky had gathered here, only a small group had managed to reach the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage.
However, Feng Luozi was not your average supreme quasi-Emperor.
“What’s it to you?”
Xuan Jiuyin showed not a hint of fear and responded boldly.
“That wanted criminal is not only the enemy of our Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, but the enemy of the entire starry sky. If you side with him, you will become the enemy of us all.” Feng Luozi moved closer, his eyes cold and menacing, “What’s more, this is the Nirvana of Transcendence, do you really think that no one can do anything to you just because you are a descendant of the Xuan Clan?”
His chilling voice instantly turned the atmosphere tense.
Many experts stepped aside, not daring to obstruct Feng Luozi’s path.
At this moment, all gazes were fixed on this area.
Yuwen Bin and other Primordial Dao Court disciples could not help but gloat.
That Xuan Jiuyin is an idiot. In this world, who would dare to have any connection with Lin Xun? Everyone is avoiding him like the plague!
But he went to stand up for Lin Xun in front of everyone. That’s no different from jumping into the fire pit!
“Hey, that guy wants to use violence, why don’t we back off for now?” Ling Kezi urged.
“Back off my ass!”
Xuan Jiuyin fixed his gaze on Feng Luozi as he approached and said nonchalantly, “Just stand aside and watch how I deal with this bastard who came looking for death.”
“Bastard?” Feng Luozi’s eyes flashed with murderous intent and the next second he disappeared from the spot.
He reappeared in front of Xuan Jiuyin. His palm, enveloped in dazzling, razor-sharp qi, slashing toward Xuan Jiuyin’s neck like a blade.
So fast!
Unbelievably fast!
A third level supreme quasi-Emperor attacked with such power and speed that most people could not even register the attack.
Meanwhile those who managed to catch a glimpse of the strike felt a chill run down their spines.
Obviously, Xuan Jiuyin was not the type to just stand there and wait for death. Back in the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone, he had already reached the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage, and now he had advanced to become a third level supreme quasi-Emperor.
Therefore, when faced with Feng Luozi’s deadly strike, his reaction was undeniably swift. Black and white qi coiled around the fingertips of his right hand, which was hidden within his sleeve.
However, just as he was about to strike…
Feng Luozi suddenly stopped mid-attack. A giant hand seized him, lifting him like a powerless chick. His face turned crimson and his eyes widened in sheer terror.
He struggled frantically, but his cultivation had been completely suppressed, leaving him unable to move a muscle!
This unexpected turn of events startled Xuan Jiuyin, and also caught everyone off guard, making their hearts pound in disbelief.
Feng Luozi was at the third level Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage, but he had been subdued like a helpless chick in the blink of an eye.
It was at this moment that the spectators saw the attacker. He was dressed in a moon-white robe, his loose black hair cascading over his tall and striking figure. He exuded a calm presence like drifting clouds, and appeared transcendent and graceful.
“Lin Xun!” A scream shattered the silence like a sudden thunderclap, causing everyone’s hearts to race and expressions to change.
The guy who Heavenly Emperor Shi personally ordered to kill actually dared to show up in the Nirvana of Transcendence?
No one expected this!
