As the vortex of clouds continued to rotate, it seemed to form some inexplicable suction power.

All the clouds in the sky above the entire Misthaven Ocean were slowly absorbed and joined into it.

The scale grew larger and larger, occupying the entire view, and simply looking up at it brought about a sense of suffocation.

The frequency of the blue flash at the center of the vortex also accelerated.

Finally, after everything reached a critical point.

In the center of the vortex, there was a sudden burst of blue light.

It formed a blue halo, spreading out from the center of the vortex.

The speed at which the halo expanded was extremely fast.

When people first saw it, it was only inside the vortex of clouds.

But just in the blink of an eye, it swept past all the cultivators present.

Before they could express their astonishment, the cultivators swept by the blue light gradually vanished like phantoms.

The blue light continued to move outwards.

If one could look down from ten thousand meters in the sky, one could see that the blue halo spread within a very short time from the central sea area to the entire Misthaven Ocean.

It reached the end of the sea area before it finally stopped.

Then…

It suddenly retracted.

It collapsed back to its original point at a speed several times faster than its expansion.

The blue light became incredibly bright in an instant.

The thunderstorm within the vortex of clouds ceased.

Those clouds, as thick as several thousand meters and stretching for tens of thousands of miles, seemed to be squeezed and kneaded by an invisible giant hand.

At the same time, below the Misthaven Ocean.

Countless blue light dots cast off from the sea surface, floating and gathering.

They rapidly approached the cloud layer above.

Gradually, those thick clouds silently transformed into continuous architectural forms.

After that, under the attachment of the incoming blue light dots filled with moist water vapor from below.

The cloud layer gradually became blue and transparent.

The whole ordeal lasted a quarter of an hour.

In the end, a massive Heavenly Palace, formed by the convergence of clouds and water, halfway between reality and illusion, and completely blue transparent, appeared above the Misthaven Ocean.

The Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, after being sealed for thousands of years, reappeared in the world!

“The battles ahead are tough, all major sects have suffered heavy losses. My

Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters, being the leader of all the sects in the

Misthaven Ocean, is no exception.”

“I don’t know how many elder and younger brothers died on the battlefield.”

“Before the sect master left, he ordered me to go out and recruit disciples, I can’t fail him.”

“Fortunately, I’ve gained quite a lot from this trip.”

Li Fan gradually regained consciousness.

Looking around, he noticed a square with hundreds of cultivators lying in disarray.

Only, the clothing of all these cultivators had changed to blue and white, and the characters “Cloud Waters” were faintly visible on them.

In front of the crowd, a handsome man in white robes with upright stature and sharp features was mumbling to himself.

The man in white looked rather handsome, but a few traces of frivolity could be seen in his demeanor.

As Li Fan took in the scene and recalled his knowledge from his previous life, he knew that he had successfully entered the interior of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters.

At the moment, it was necessary to remain still and wait for the “plot” to unfold.

Thus, he concealed his aura and kept silent.

Gradually, the cultivators on the square started to wake up.

When they discerned their surroundings, a few of them became a little excited.

“What happened, where are we? Weren’t we by the side of that vortex of clouds?”

“And also, what’s with these clothes?”

They noticed that only the white-robed man in front did not fit in with the rest of the group.

Immediately, someone asked, “Hey! The white-robed guy, did you bring us here? Who are you? What’s your purpose?”

The white-robed man awoke from his self-murmuring.

Looking at the group of cultivators in front of him, a smile of joy appeared on his face: “Ah, you’re finally awake. Now, stay quiet. I have some things to explain to you…”

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by someone’s impatience.

“Cut the crap, tell us, where is this?”

A hint of smile appeared at the corner of the white-robed man’s mouth as he shook his head, “This time the newcomers seem all a bit unruly.”

Without any apparent action, he just glanced aside.

A streak of blue light flashed past, and the head of the man who just spoke fell off.

The previously somewhat noisy square instantly became incredibly quiet.

Some cultivators present showed expressions of horror while others seemed to have understood something.

The white-robed man looked at the now quiet crowd with satisfaction, and then leisurely said, “My name is Qin Tang, and I am the Chief of the Dharma Transmission Hall in the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters. You should call me Brother Qin.”

“All of you are outer disciples that I recruited this time. For the next few months, if you can pass my several tests, you can officially join my Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters.”

“Of course, there are a few things that you must remember.”

“The first one is to show me, Brother Qin, enough respect. What I say, you do.

The consequences of defiance, well, you’ve seen them.”

“The second one…

Qin Tang kept talking on and on.

The cultivators below appeared quiet on the surface but had already started to communicate with each other through Divine Sense.

“Does any Daoist friend know what’s happening?”

“This is strange! This Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters must be some kind of Sect Ruin shrouded in strangeness.”

“What exactly is this Qin Tang? A real person or what?”

“He’s definitely not a living person! Didn’t you notice that he doesn’t have any aura?

“Everyone, don’t panic. Every strangeness has its own rules. As long as we do what this Qin Tang says, there should be no immediate danger.”

Li Fan discreetly glanced at Sikong Yi and Baili Chen.

These two seemed completely composed, as if they had already known that they would encounter strangeness.

Or perhaps, even in the face of strangeness, these two knew exactly what to

Li Fan then looked at Qin Tang, who was clad in white.

According to the experiences of the people who had explored the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters in his previous life, this Qin Tang was the first hurdle for entering the palace.

He was not a living being, but something similar to the phenomenon of strangeness.

And what he said was the rule of the strangeness.

To survive, one must conform to it.

And only by passing his test could one qualify to explore different parts of the Celestial Palace of Clouds and Waters.

Qin Tang finally finished his speech.

He clapped his hands, “It’s already late today, I’ll take you to rest. Tomorrow morning, we’ll officially start the test.”

“Follow me.”

With that, he turned and walked towards the outside of the square.

The vast majority of the cultivators, including Sikong Yi and Baili Chen, obediently followed behind Qin Tang in white.

Li Fan quickly followed suit.

Only a very few looked at each other, not following the crowd.

Instead, they sped off in the opposite direction, trying to leave.

Qin Tang didn’t seem to notice these moves, showing no reaction.

Seeing that they were about to escape, these people accelerated their flight speed.

They didn’t notice that as they got further and further away from Qin Tang, the blue light radiating from their bodies grew stronger.

In the end, after flying a certain distance.

These people all turned into dried corpses and fell heavily to the ground..
