was pondering these questions, somewhere in this world, there stood a stone tablet that soared a thousand zhang high.A middle-aged man stood on the stone tablet, muttering to himself: "I didn't expec...Ginger Cloud suddenly turned her head, looking in the direction from which the voice came, but there was nothing there.

Ginger Cloud naturally knew that Xuwu Dao had been following him in the shadows for seven years.

Besides the time when he mysteriously gave himself a piece of advice during the double heavenly gate, this is now the second time he has spoken to him.

Strictly speaking, this time, it can also be seen as a piece of advice he gave himself.

However, this advice is even stranger than the last.

At least once, Jiang Yun knew the reason why he had advised himself.

But this time, I was completely baffled. Even the other party's words were not addressed to "you", but to "you all," naturally referring to all the cultivators from the lower realms on the ancient path of Contending Heaven!

Jiang Yun retracted his gaze from behind him and once again raised his head to look at the towering Sanchong Tianque before him. His eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "Why is this Sanchong Tianque so crucial to us"

Unable to figure it out, Jiang Yun simply stopped thinking about it and followed the others into the inner sanctum of the Threefold Heaven Pass.

Still, there was no obstruction. Upon entering, all the cultivators from the lower realms were directly sent into the city, just as in the previous two instances.

Naturally, everyone has come to accept this.

Inside the city walls, some people walked directly toward the central square. Others rushed into shops to buy necessities, while others greedily watched the bustling crowd.

For a decade, the ancient path has been fraught with challenges, loneliness remaining an inescapable trial for all cultivators of the lower realms.

Gingercloud then chose a secluded spot, sat cross-legged, and closed her eyes.

He was waiting, wondering if the Oracle would contact him again and explain the meaning of its recent warning.

However, the sound of Hu You Dao did not rise, but Shi Zuo's voice rose and said: "The people sent by the Void Celestial Venerable have already left!"

This sentence caused Ginger Cloud's eyes, which had just closed, to snap open. "Left" she asked.

Ishinomaki confirmed, "Well, that's strange. I followed him for seven years, and I thought he would always follow you to the end of the Zhentian Ancient Road!"

"Unexpectedly, in this third Heavenly Palatial Gate, he just mysteriously left!"

As for the reason behind Shizuru's sudden departure, Ishida was clueless, but Kouun knew it must be related to the advice he had just given.

"The Triple Heaven's Gate is of paramount importance to us. What does this phrase really mean"

"Why did Xuyoudou choose to leave after transmitting the message to me and stop following me"

With these doubts, Jiang Yun didn't close his eyes, but widened them instead, releasing his divine sense and carefully looking at the city, hoping to find a clue.

It's a pity he can't see anything.

However, Gingercloud did notice something strange.

When the Heavenly Gate opens, all cultivators from the lower realms enter. Then, powerful celestial beings responsible for hosting the Heavenly Gate, accompanied by the Heavenly Gate Master and others, appear to introduce themselves.

Then notify everyone when the final exam will begin.

But this time, even though he had been waiting here for a long time for all the cultivators from the lower realms to enter, he still hadn't seen the one who presided over the Three Heavenly Palaces appear.

Even the cultivators guarding the Heavenly Gate were nowhere to be seen.

It feels as though the palace city is completely undefended, with its gates wide open, allowing cultivators from the lower realms to enter freely.

In this situation, it's not really out of the ordinary.

Generally speaking, the final test begins on the third day of entering this palace city.

By then, the one presiding over the Heavenly Palace and the cultivators guarding it would certainly appear.

Therefore, Gingercloud looked around but found nothing unusual. After that, she closed her eyes again and patiently waited for the third day to come.

Meanwhile, Ginger Cloud was unaware that at this moment, in a certain hall within the Threefold Heavenly Palaces, over thirty people were gazing intently at him.

Among these people, there were cultivators like Zino from small forces in the Heavenly Domain Gathering Region, as well as the Lord of the Que and all the cultivators guarding the Tianque. Each person's face bore a complex expression.

At the very front of the crowd, sat an elder with hair as white as crane feathers and a youthful face. Seven markings like colorful water droplets adorned his brow.

And the old man's face was grim, gazing into Jiang Yun's eyes, a faint murderous intent flickering within them.

And even Gingeryun wouldn't know that, within the entirety of the Celestial Gathering Domain, at least over half of all cultivators were watching the Spirit Ancient Domain, watching the city within the Threefold Heavenly Gate, watching Gingeryun and all the remaining Lower Realm cultivators!

Each person's facial expression is different. Some are full of expectation, while others are full of fear. Some even gnash their teeth.

And outside the Linggu domain, the three artifacts that originally surrounded it, standing in a tripod formation, have now become four.

The extra item was a seal, measuring one hundred zhang in size!

If Ginger Cloud could see this seal, she would undoubtedly recognize that it was very similar to the Void Seal.

Above the seal, stood a young man, it was Xu Youdao!

Xu Youdao no longer followed Jiang Yun. Instead, he stood on this seal, standing outside the Linggu domain.

Because of his appearance, the three other artifacts that were originally in a state of tripartite supremacy, had to slightly adjust their positions, transforming into a situation where they surrounded him from all four sides.

The four treasures are located in the southeast, southwest, and northwest, respectively, encircling the entire Linggu domain.

Although those standing above the four sacred treasures were not members of the Four Celestial Sovereigns, nor even close to them, they nonetheless represented the Four Celestial Sovereigns!

Within the Void Heaven, before the Void Heavenly Venerable, there were no more delicacies and fine wines. There were only four mirrors on all sides, and beside each mirror stood one of the Four Domain Kings, such as Xūběi.

Inside the Heaven's Decree, besides the transparently-shaped Heaven's Decree Sovereign, there was also a handsome middle-aged man.

Before the two of them lay only a mirror. Within the mirror, Gingercloud could be seen sitting cross-legged on the ground within the Sanzhongtian Citadel!

Although both of their faces were expressionless, it was not difficult to see that a faint chill lurked within the cloudy eyes of the Seal-Life Heavenly Venerable!

Inside a pavilion, Gu Bulao, still in the form of a child, no longer wore his usual smile. Instead, his face was shrouded in gloom.

His youthful body exuded a terrifying aura, so much so that all the seats within ten paces of him were empty. No one dared to sit beside him.

Ancient Not Old Nature had already known the reason why numerous cultivators left in droves four years ago when the Double Heaven Gate closed, and this enraged him greatly!

Although this reason shocked him, even infuriating him to the point where he almost left several times to find the Celestial Guardian or the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables.

However, in the end, he did not leave. Instead, he remained seated right there, for a full four years, waiting for the opening of the Three Heavens Gate.

On an exceptionally wide bed, the portly man had also uncharacteristically straightened his body, his gaze darting back and forth between the four mirrors before him and Tian Yu.

Tian Yu's face was surprisingly calm, but the slight furrow in his brow betrayed a hint of hidden worry!

Outside the palace of the Angel Exemplar, stood twelve sky-horses with dual wings, each bearing a knight in a masked helm. They sat motionless, as if statues.

Twelve sky horses, twelve knights, of varying heights, were completely identical.

It's like standing there with only one person and one horse, but eleven mirrors are placed, reflecting twelve people and twelve horses!

And these twelve knights, whether it was the masks on their faces, the clothes they wore, or even the pegasi they rode, were all were attacking him simultaneously.In a moment of desperation, he took hurried steps, rapidly retreating from his original position. The figure appeared in an instant, threw open their arms, and with...
