Xue Ying and the others were standing on the deck of the starfield flying ship, admiring the speckling scene ahead of them.
“The Bloodshed God Palace. This is the Bloodshed God Palace!” All of them were truly startled.
There was a piece of land floating in the starry sky that was even bigger than the Calm Sea Prefecture Capital! A continuous range of palaces spread along its surface, with a central palace marked with the characters ‘Bloodshed’ being the grandest and largest. Other than the palaces, nine different sculptures were situated throughout the four corners of the Bloodshed God Palace land. These exquisite statues depicted various mutated beasts, their bodies adorned with armor.
Each mutated beast was more than a hundred billion kilometers tall, about the same height as the main palace in the center.
“So beautiful.”
The entire Bloodshed God Palace was emitting a dream-like rainbow light. Every palace, building, street, and even the nine sculptures were surrounded by ancient arrays. These arrays unceasingly let out a worldly might accompanied by colorful lights.
This made it so that, despite the relatively meager size of the Bloodshed God Palace, its radiance reached more than billions upon billions of kilometers away…
“This place isn’t only beautiful; those arrays operating spontaneously are so powerful that it’s hard to even imagine how frightening it would be to see them unleashed.” Seventh Mei Yu was watching from afar. “It’s been said that the magnificent Bloodshed God Emperor has built this Bloodshed God Palace himself. After being continually reinforced over countless years, the slightest show of strength from those arrays might even kill powerful existences, much less to say World Deities!”
“Not even powerful existences can resist it?”
“The Bloodshed God Palace is worthy of its fame!”
Everyone listened closely, some even sighing in astonishment. This place was none other than the core essence of the Bloodshed God Palace, as well as the main residence of the strongest expert in the Deity World—His Majesty, the Bloodshed God Emperor. He was an existence for whom killing any ordinary powerful existence was child’s play. It was not hard to discern just how powerful the arrays he took the effort in setting down were.
At the helm of his large ship, the Calm Sea Prefecture Master finally arrived at the Bloodshed God Palace. There, the experts were led to their lodgings by a group of soldiers.
“Dong Bo, this is where you and your comrades will stay temporarily,” said a tall and sturdy soldier wearing black armor. “I trust you all know the rules of the Bloodshed God Palace already. Should you go against any of them, you might just lose your life before you even get the chance to regret your action.”
“We understand,” Xue Ying replied.
“Mn. You can all go into closed-door cultivation. Once it’s time for the final battle to begin, we will, of course, inform you and take you over to where it will take place.” Having explained this final bit of information, the black-armored soldier finally left.
Xue Ying sent him off with his eyes.
To the side, the Dragon Mountain Emperor let out a sigh. “This is the Bloodshed God Palace alright. Even the most ordinary of soldiers here is a World Deity! In fact, we didn’t come across a single Deity soldier on our way here.”
“Dragon Mountain,” the Purple Thunder Emperor began with a laugh, “the legions commanded by the palace are separated into three different classes. The third class legions are lowest in rank, while the prefecture capitals usually house second class legions. As for the ones located here, they are all of the highest rank—class one legions! Any such legion has World Deities as soldiers of the lowest rank, and they are usually only mobilized to deal with powerful existences.”
“Oh!” The Dragon Mountain Emperor felt enlightened. He had not lived in the Deity world for very long time, and most of the time he did live here was spent living in a small, isolated corner of the world. His knowledge wasn’t as complete as some of the others’. In fact, his trip to the prefecture capital had cost him all of the treasures he still had!
“We’ll go in first, then,” Xue Ying said. He looked around at his surroundings to see the other experts participating in the Bloodshed God Palace Battle along with their comrades.
The type of cavern dwellings they were assigned was of the smallest scale, only occupying an area of around five kilometers.

Xue Ying sat cross-legged on the grass next to one of the rivers within his cavern dwelling, holding a crystal jade in his hand. The information inside this piece of jade was rapidly entering his mind. It had been sent over by the soldier from before, and it contained the battle scenes of all nineteen hundred Deity experts who would participate in the following battle, mainly those from the arena and survival battles.
