Chapter 757: Entrance Denied (1/2)

Jiang Feng from the Bliss Mountain Sect frowned deeply, looking confused.

Yao Zhilan, Tian Ziping, and Mu Biqiong also stood aghast, as if someone had bound their arms and legs.

Only after a few moments did Jiang Feng mutter in a low voice with a bitter look on his face, “The Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace...”

As soon as he had taken Mu Biqiong through the atmosphere of violent energies to this floating continent and seen this magnificent palace, he had warned Mu Biqiong against any rash moves.

Later, when Yao Zhilan and the others had arrived on that ancient golden starship, he had demanded that they be very careful as well.

Even he had exercised great caution every time he had attempted to examine the palace. However, his soul awareness had failed to penetrate the palace walls and learn the situation inside.

He had even issued orders that the disciples of the Bliss Mountain Sect shouldn’t touch a single flower or blade of grass on this floating continent.

The reason behind all this was fear.

He was afraid that he would offend the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace and draw ire towards the Bliss Mountain Sect.

He had only made repeated attempts to examine the palace because he had hoped to somehow establish a friendly relationship with the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace through it.

They didn’t want to or have the strength to become the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s enemy.

However, he had never expected that a member of the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace, who seemed to know Yue Yanxi from long ago, would arrive with Qiao Yunxi.

Could it be that the Divine Flame Sect had already formed some kind of connection with the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace?

A train of thoughts entered Jiang Feng’s mind, making him more and more apprehensive.

WHOOSH!

Like a bolt of lightning, Nie Tian flashed to the towering palace’s huge stone gate, which was covered in mysterious star formations.

Naturally, everyone’s gazes focused on him.

“Elder Jiang!” Tian Ziping exclaimed softly from behind him.

Without turning his head, Jiang Feng half-lifted his hand, signaling him to stop.

“Hahaha!” Yue Yanxi laughed wildly and said to Jiang Feng from afar, “Neither you nor I can get a glimpse of the inside of this palace with our soul awareness. Neither of us knows whether powerful experts from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace are practicing secluded cultivation in there.”

Jiang Feng’s expression flickered upon hearing these words.

This was exactly the reason why he hadn’t dared to make any moves and kept his people from taking any spiritual plants or materials.

As a Void domain expert himself, of course he knew that the secluded cultivation of experts of the three domain levels might very well last decades.

This floating continent that had been sealed away for who knew how many years must be someone’s work, very likely the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s.

If that was actually true, then it was possible that some powerful experts from the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace were still cultivating inside.

Then everything in this place would belong to the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace. Taking the spiritual materials and plants here without permission would definitely draw the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace’s ire.

Standing in front of the stone gate, Nie Tian gave a faint smile.

However, just as he was about to push the gate in, Yue Yanxi and Jiang Feng’s expressions flickered.

Their gazes suddenly left Nie Tian and fixed on the same place in the heavens.

“Someone is coming,” Jiang Feng exclaimed softly.

It would trigger changes in the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth once a Void domain expert penetrated the atmosphere of energies and entered this heaven and earth.

Since Nie Tian and the girls’ cultivation bases were rather insignificant, when they had entered, it was like throwing small rocks into a huge lake. The ripples they had created were almost negligible.

However, if a Void domain expert entered this heaven and earth, it would be like an enormous meteor crashing into the earth. It was only natural that Jiang Feng and Yue Yanxi sensed it the moment it happened.

After hearing that others might have come in, Nie Tian stayed his hand.

He wanted to know whether it was Xing Beichen and the foreign Qi warriors with him that had broken in.

“Grand elder, Xing Beichen from the Trisword Sect colluded with Qi warriors from another domain...” Qiao Yunxi went on and briefly explained how Xing Beichen had tried to kill them earlier with his Seven Ultimate Soul-splitting Sword Formation. “...They even attacked the Jian Clan and the Guan Clan’s reinforcement team and killed many of them.”

Yao Zhilan’s expression flickered slightly. “Xing Beichen and experts from another domain?!”

They had flown directly to this place after evacuating from the three floating meteors without pausing for a moment.

Therefore, they knew nothing about Xing Beichen and the foreign Qi warriors, and were rather shocked to hear that Xing Beichen had led a group of foreign Qi warriors to attack the Jian Clan and the Guan Clan’s reinforcement team.
