y still resentful of Jiang Yun's sword strike from just moments ago.For him, the moment the tip of the sword pierced his brow was also the closest he had ever been to death in his life.But Gu Yan Luo...As soon as the Heavenly Emperor spoke, Jiang Yun and the thirteen others immediately felt that the oppressive force that had enveloped them like a barrier suddenly shattered. Beneath their feet, a radiant path appeared, extending towards the palace ahead.

This beam of light is incredibly dazzling, to the point where in the eyes of outsiders, it truly appears as if it reaches to heaven.

Set foot on the right path, and you can reach the heavens in one step!

After thirteen people looked at each other, eleven figures instantly swayed and rushed towards the palace along this avenue without hesitation.

And the two people who remained motionless were Lü Zisu and Jiang Yun.

Lü Zisu glanced at the palace, then at Jiang Yun, hesitated for a moment, and turned to walk towards Jiang Yun.

However, just at this moment, the voice of the Heavenly Emperor sounded once more: "You thirteen individuals, must not communicate with each other, nor attack one another. Enter the palaces individually and seek my inheritance!"

Lü Zisu's expression changed slightly, she could only offer a apologetic smile to Jiang Yun, and turned around, heading towards the palace.

Ginger Cloud, however, remained standing in place. He wasn't very interested in the Emperor's inheritance to begin with, so he didn't rush into the palace.

He turned and released his divine consciousness, spreading it in all directions, wanting to understand the situation here.

And as the divine consciousness was just released, Jiang Yun immediately understood

Although it may seem that the barriers around us have disappeared, they actually still exist. Only on the path of the Great Dao are there no barriers.

This also means that, besides entering the palace along the Grand Avenue, there is no other way to get there.

Ginger Cloud thought to herself: "It seems that, this Emperor's inheritance, I want it or not, I have to take it!"

Since there was no other way, Jiang Yun didn't hesitate any longer. With a final step, he walked towards the palace.

After thirteen people had entered the palace one after another, within the chaotic realm, the four figures of the Emperor Hao inside each other's paintings also changed accordingly.

At this moment, what is presented before everyone's eyes is a grand hall, towering and seemingly endless.

A floor of countless smooth crystals, gleaming like a mirror, upon which stood hundreds of thick pillars shaped like coiled dragons, glittering with gold.

Of course, this is the inside of the palace.

However, no one cared about the state of the great hall now. Everyone was looking at the swirling vortexes of mist suspended within it.

Ginger Cloud and thirteen others, each person was in a vortex, enveloped by it.

To outsiders, they could only see the whirlpool and not know what kind of mist was within it. However, the expressions of Ginger Cloud and the thirteen others had all changed.

Especially Jiang Yun, he turned his head abruptly, looking around, wanting to see if the Emperor Hao was here.

It's a pity that this vortex of mist also has a concealing effect.

Jiang Yun's divine sense and gaze couldn't penetrate the mist at all, unable to see what was happening to the others.

Jiang Yun did not continue to try, retracted his divine consciousness, and refocused his gaze on the mist before him.

Although his face had returned to calm, there was still a huge shock in his heart!

He didn't know what the others were caught in, but he could clearly feel the mist around him. It was... spiritual energy!

Immeasurably pure spiritual energy!

Qi, just like the power of heaven gathered from all realms, is a source of energy.

Although spiritual energy exists in both the Desolate Domain and the Multiverse, its concentration is extremely thin. No cultivators would bother absorbing it.

Qi, is the source of power that only Taoist cultivators must absorb.

Absorbing spiritual energy, clearing the meridians, condensing the blessed land of enlightenment, step by step towards the peak of cultivation...

If she had experienced this spiritual energy elsewhere, Jiang Yun might not have been too shocked. But here, in the Emperor's Cave, within the palace of an emperor who transcended the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, a ruler of the chaotic realm known as Si Luan Jie, it was truly unsettling.

Here, there is such pure spiritual energy!

Could it be that the other twelve people are also surrounded by spiritual energy

Just as Jiang Yun was feeling puzzled, his expression changed again.

Because there was yet another force, extremely abrupt, that descended from the sky and surged into his body.

"Ah!"

Power surged into his body, and a gut-wrenching scream tore from Jiang Yun's throat. An immense, unimaginable pain flooded his being in an instant.

Because of this power, it directly destroyed his Wheel of Destiny, his lifeline, and his Dantian...

Even, even he had long since opened up the twelve meridians, under this power, they became blocked once again.

Just in the blink of an eye, Jiang Yun had transformed from a powerful cultivator at the First Level of the Fa Breaking Realm to an ordinary person with no cultivation!

This sudden change made Jiang Yun's entire being as still as a statue, frozen in place, his mind a blank slate.

...And it wasn't just him. At this moment, within the chaotic realm and for the cultivators of the four clans outside the palace, they could all clearly see that the thirteen people inside the main hall had all become like statues, standing motionless in place.

Every person's face was ashen white, and some people's bodies were trembling uncontrollably.

This naturally made onlookers feel incredibly curious, wondering what had happened to these thirteen people.

Ginger Cloud was the first of the thirteen to regain his composure. He didn't bother looking at the others. Instead, he suddenly crossed his legs and began to do everything in his power to mobilize the energy within him.

He couldn't believe it, nor could he accept it. His cultivation had truly vanished completely.

Jiang Yun muttered in his mouth, "It must be fake. My cultivation base couldn't have vanished this quickly. This is an illusion, or a dream. It must be the doing of that Emperor Hao!"

In short, my cultivation level is definitely still there!

Without his cultivation, he couldn't use divine sense, nor could he see within his body. He could only rely on his own senses to try and feel the presence of his vanished cultivation.

Just then, the spiritual vortex swirling around him, as if suddenly imbued with life, surged towards his body.

Qi flowed into her body, a faint tremor passing through Ginger Cloud's heart. Almost instinctively, it guided the Qi towards her twelve blocked meridians.

"Bang bang bang!"

In less than a breath's time, the twelve meridians were reopened. Jiang Yun went directly from an ordinary person to the ninth level of Tongmai realm.

And then, the qi continued to surge within him, gathering in his dantian and forming more and more blessed realms.

Once all nine blessed lands appear, the nine celestial caverns will also appear in succession.

The whole process took only a few breaths.

And such a change made Jiang Yun's eyes narrow slightly, muttering to himself: "My cultivation should not have disappeared, but rather hidden by that Emperor Hao in some unknown way."

"Now, as this spiritual energy enters my body, it seems to be helping me restore my cultivation. But in reality, it should only be making me walk the path of cultivation again."

Otherwise, even if I had experience in cultivation, it would be impossible to recover my cultivation level so quickly in such a short time.

I suppose others are in the same boat.

Could it be that the Emperor Hao wishes to observe our entire cultivation process, using it as a basis for deciding whether we are worthy of his inheritance

"Forget about it for now, I must hurry and restore all my cultivation."

For cultivators, the absence of cultivation is akin to having no security whatsoever; it's even more unbearable than death!

After finishing, Jiang Yun closed his eyes, stopped overthinking, and began to guide these spiritual qi within his body, continuing to restore his cultivation.

Ginger Cloud's guess was right, not only him, but at this moment all thirteen people, the cultivators within their bodies were all lost.

Now, almost everyone has realized that the vortexes around them can provide a large source of power, allowing them to quickly recover their cultivation.

Just like that, thirteen people were back to the very beginning of their journey of cultivation, walking the path once more!

Meanwhile, at the center of this grand hall, the figure of the Heavenly Emperor gradually materialized. His gaze swept over the thirteen individuals one by one, finally settling on Jiang Yun!t, and it was almost impossible to hide one's identity.Needless to say, with the Righteous Path Thunder Sea about to open, defensive measures are now several times stricter than before.Even Jiang Yun...
