After rushing into the golden tunnel, Zhou Xingdou felt his vision being obscured by white light. When his vision returned, he found himself surrounded by emptiness.
"This is the Heavenly Heart Domain?"
Looking at the void beside him, Zhou Xingdou tried to tear it open, but found that it was as if it were nailed down, and even with his peak Quasi-Emperor power, he could not shake it.
Even the concept of the Two Realms cannot be activated here, let alone teleportation; one can only rely on speed to move.
"It does resemble that three-day domain somewhat."
Zhou Xingdou observed this Heavenly Heart Domain, which was similar to the domain of the Great Palm Heavenly King when he was in the Four Heavens Sacred Domain. However, it was more advanced than Zhang Santian's domain, and even the Two Realms Boundless was useless against it.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Suddenly, three figures appeared in the void mist surrounding Zhou Xingdou. Just as Zhou Xingdou was about to focus his attention and prepare for battle, the three figures emerged from the void mist, revealing their faces and auras.
One person wore a gold-embroidered snow robe, another wore a black and white Taoist robe, and yet another was clad in exquisite armor.
It was Wan Tianzhou, Bai Yulong, and Zhou Xingdou's cousin, Ming Jiuyao.
The three of them showed obvious joy when they saw Zhou Xingdou and quickly gathered around him.
Wan Tianzhou said with a smile:
"Big brother, you run too fast, I almost couldn't keep up with you."
Bai Yulong, however, seemed to harbor some resentment towards Zhou Xingdou:
"He sits high on his throne, unlike us who have to fight in the enemy's ranks."
Wan Tianzhou looked at Bai Yulong with some surprise. Usually, Bai Yulong was most afraid of Zhou Xingdou, so why did he dare to complain today?
And then, everyone found out the reason.
Bai Yulong snorted coldly and glared at Zhou Xingdou:
"Last time they ran away with Du Yu, and the Hundred Flowers Sect extorted a huge sum of money from me!"
Bai Yulong's complaints actually eased Zhou Xingdou's heavy mood about arriving in this unfamiliar territory, and he laughed and scolded:
"Stop talking nonsense. Now that you've seized the Heavenly Heart, let my cousin introduce you to a Daoist partner from the Underworld Palace."
Although Ming Jiuyao wasn't familiar with Bai Yulong and Wan Tianzhou, they knew each other, and besides, he didn't refuse his cousin's offer.
"I do have a junior sister who is quite talented and beautiful, but she has hearing problems. If you're interested, I'll introduce you two later."
Upon hearing that he couldn't hear well, Wan Tianzhou gave Ming Jiuyao a thumbs-up, then said to Bai Yulong:
"That's a match made in heaven! Yulong, you must seize this opportunity; it's your only chance to find a partner!"
Bai Yulong glared at Wan Tianzhou, but was also somewhat tempted, and asked Ming Jiuyao:
"How do you look? Who's prettier, him or Tian Zhou?"
Ming Jiuyou glanced at Wan Tianzhou, thought for a moment, and then said:
"It's hard to say. My junior sister is the petite and cute type, so it's not easy to compare her to Wan Tianzhou."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yulong's eyes lit up immediately:
"A loli? Brother-in-law, you absolutely must introduce her to me!"
Seeing this, Zhou Xingdou shook his head helplessly. Bai Yulong could only rely on introductions, otherwise, acquaintances who were good enough for him basically knew his true nature.
Moreover, if it weren't for my hearing problems, I might not have been able to stand him.
Just then, figures began to appear in the void mist surrounding Zhou Xingdou and the others, numbering nearly ten at first glance.
Ming Jiuyao stopped joking and his azure armor shimmered with a powerful aura of blood and energy as he said:
"It seems that quite a few people have entered the Heavenly Heart Domain this time. There are so many people in our area alone."
"Since everyone except the four of us is an enemy, let's just attack!"
Bai Yulong said with an indifferent expression.
Excluding Zhou Xingdou, who is a huge cheat, Bai Yulong, Wan Tianzhou, and Ming Jiuyao are all among the top quasi-emperors.
Even without Zhou Xingdou, the three of them together would be enough to sweep away most of the quasi-emperors in the Heavenly Heart Domain.
Buzz!
The Yin-Yang Birth and Death Millstone was instantly unleashed by Bai Yulong, grinding towards the ten quasi-emperors in the void mist.
Screams echoed from the void and mist, and the blood mist instantly mixed with the mist, making it turn a sinister crimson.
Even Bai Yulong hadn't expected to kill ten quasi-emperors so easily, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and say:
"That's it? This isn't even as good as the most ordinary peak Quasi-Emperor. It's probably a cultivation level that was forcibly pulled out using a secret technique."
Bai Yulong was quite clear about his own combat strength. He couldn't possibly wipe out ten Quasi-Emperors at the Ninth Transformation level who had advanced normally in one strike; he would have to take them down one by one.
Wan Tianzhou also marveled and guessed:
"It's likely that some force provided assistance to itself in its bid to become the chosen one of the Heavenly Hearts, and it just so happened that it was teleported to our vicinity after entering the Heavenly Hearts Domain."
But Ming Jiuyao frowned slightly and looked around, saying:
"Something seems off about the Heavenly Heart Domain this time."
Zhou Xingdou didn't know much about the Heavenly Heart Domain, so upon hearing Ming Jiuyao's words, he asked:
Something's not right.
Wan Tianzhou and Bai Yulong were also entering the Heavenly Heart Domain for the first time, so they naturally didn't understand these things and listened attentively.
"There was once a Heavenly Heart Emperor in the Underworld Palace. I recently looked up information about that Heavenly Heart Emperor. The Heavenly Heart Domain he entered was like a chaotic battle arena. Dozens of top quasi-emperors entered and soon they were engaged in a chaotic battle. In less than a quarter of an hour, the Heavenly Heart descended."
Ming Jiuyao looked around at the misty, seemingly boundless void, and continued:
“But we’ve been here for a while now, and apart from those ten trashy Quasi-Emperors from before, no one else has appeared, not even a top-tier Quasi-Emperor. This is rather unusual.”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xingdou's expression darkened slightly. He began to observe the surrounding void and mist, only to discover that the mist seemed to isolate all means of detection. Even with the power of a single thought reaching the heavens, it was impossible to detect anything outside the mist.
Just then, Bai Yulong exclaimed in surprise:
What is that?
Zhou Xingdou's gaze instantly shifted to the direction Bai Yulong pointed, only to see a golden sculpture appear in the vast, misty void.
The sculpture was exquisite and lifelike, holding a round shield and wearing armor, half-bent over to hold the shield, but it just stood there, showing no sign of launching an attack.
Wan Tianzhou looked at the shield sculpture and asked in confusion:
"What is this thing? Is it a product of the Heavenly Heart Domain?"
Zhou Xingdou looked at the sculpture and narrowed his eyes slightly, saying:
"It's probably some kind of test."
As Zhou Xingdou expected, no sooner had he finished speaking than a melodious, ancient voice, indistinguishable between male and female, rang out:
"Break through the shield to proceed to the next level."
"It seems that this Heavenly Heart Domain is quite different from before. Could it be that because too many ordinary Quasi-Emperors have entered, barriers have been set up to prevent the weak from taking advantage of the situation?"
Ming Jiuyao's expression was not good, because the changes in the Heavenly Heart Domain had rendered all the information he had gathered in advance useless.
Bai Yulong grinned.
"It doesn't matter, are there any weaklings among us?"
"The checkpoints can't stop us, let me try this shield first!"
Wan Tianzhou agreed with Bai Yulong's words. After speaking, the golden halberd appeared in his hand and he struck out!
