Seeing that the commotion wasn't caused by someone barging in, Lu Xin transformed into a gust of clear wind and appeared outside.
He quickly saw that the commotion was coming from the direction of the Blackwater Domain.
Moreover, it seemed quite close; the situation was visible to the naked eye.
It was a pillar of light like a celestial river pouring downwards, piercing through the heavens and earth, causing a tremor that affected a wide area.
"This sudden change, could it be caused by that place?"
Seeing the direction from which the pillar of light originated, Lu Xin thought of the place Chen Ruoyan had told him about.
According to her, she had overheard the Black Mountain Lord discussing something about the Blackwater Underworld Palace with someone.
It seemed to contain a precious treasure.
He had originally planned to explore it when he had time, but now it seemed to have emerged on its own.
"No, could it be that it was meant to emerge on its own?"
Lu Xin shook his head. Regardless, he intended to go and take a look.
Whether or not there was a precious treasure was irrelevant; it would be worthwhile if he could collect some immortal herbs or refining materials.
At this moment, Hua Nu also followed, "Master, what technique did you just use? How did you turn into a gust of wind and 'whoosh' disappear? You're so fast."
Seeing her expression, Lu Xin knew she had a hard time catching up. He couldn't help but smile and didn't hide anything, replying:
"'Wind Character Qimen'. Didn't I teach it to you? You can do that once you comprehend the Law of Wind."
"Ah, that will have to wait until I become a Golden Immortal."
Hua Nu immediately deflated, then looked towards the pillar of light and said, "What happened over there?"
"It's not clear yet. Let's go back and call out Zi Wan and Little Vermilion Bird. I plan to go explore."
"Okay."
… …
The great commotion naturally attracted the attention of more than just Lu Xin.
The Blackwater Domain was vast, surrounded by several mountains of the Underworld. After the commotion occurred, the experts within these mountains noticed it immediately.
In the Mountain Lord's mansion of Feng Mountain Domain, an old man soared into the sky, ascending to a high altitude in a few flashes, looking towards the direction of the pillar of light.
His eyes gleamed brightly.
"The Blackwater Underworld Palace has finally reappeared. This time, it will probably attract even more experts. I must make a move first to have a chance."
He muttered to himself, then strode towards the direction of the pillar of light.
At the same time, several rays of light rose from various parts of Feng Mountain Domain. After confirming the commotion, they took the same action as the old man.
Before long, more and more figures were heading towards the pillar of light.
Moreover, it was not limited to Feng Mountain alone.
In the blink of an eye, several days had passed. The pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and earth had now disappeared, replaced by a palace.
The palace stood in the void, its aura majestic.
At this moment, the first figure had already appeared at the foot of the palace, and it was none other than the Feng Mountain Lord.
It was unknown whether it was due to rushing too quickly or something else, but he looked somewhat disheveled.
"It seems I'm the first to arrive, but it's a bit too early."
He looked at the tightly closed palace gate, tidied up his clothes and hair, and then waited anxiously.
Before long, before the palace gate opened, another expert arrived.
"Mountain Lord Han, I didn't expect you to arrive first."
The newcomer was also an old man, but he looked older than the Feng Mountain Lord.
He came closer, glanced at the palace gate, and then cupped his hands in greeting.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Qi, you're not slow either."
Mountain Lord Han sized up the newcomer, and also cupped his hands, "I see Fellow Daoist Qi's demeanor is calm and collected, it seems you had a smooth journey."
"I had some good luck." The old man stroked his beard and smiled, "Could it be that Mountain Lord Han encountered some trouble?"
"This lord's luck was not good. I encountered a water beast without intelligence and spent a lot of effort to get rid of it."
Mountain Lord Han looked helpless, and then said:
"Let's not talk about it. This time, the Blackwater Underworld Palace has appeared. What are Fellow Daoist Qi's thoughts?"
Hearing this, the old man's smile disappeared, and he said solemnly:
"If I remember correctly, this is the third time the Underworld Palace has appeared. Compared to the previous two times, the number of experts who know the news this time is definitely even greater than before."
"Last time, several Peak Golden Immortals came. I wonder if any Grand Unity Immortals will come this time."
Mountain Lord Han's expression also became solemn upon hearing this, and he continued to analyze:
"The Blackwater is surrounded by middle-level mountain domains like ours. With the commotion caused by the pillar of light, it can't reach those middle-upper level mountain domains at all."
"So, it will definitely take some time for them to receive the news and rush over."
"And during this period, is the opportunity for us to act."
"I think so too." The old man agreed very much and suggested, "Since there are strong competitors, how about we two join forces?"
"That's exactly what I was thinking."
Mountain Lord Han nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then said:
"Those who arrive first are all nearby fellow Daoists. Their circumstances are similar to ours. I think they should be able to think of this point as well."
"Perhaps we can discuss it and reduce the fighting."
The more he spoke, the more feasible he felt it was, so he continued, "That way, before those whose cultivation is much higher than ours arrive, we can also reap the greatest rewards."
"Mountain Lord Han's analysis is reasonable."
Then the two discussed the details.
"That's quite wise." In one space, Lu Xin was hidden within it.
In fact, he was the first to arrive. Firstly, he was the closest, and secondly, he had the Law of Wind.
Transforming into a gust of wind was not only extremely fast, but also able to directly bypass some obstacles.
Between the Blackwaters, for some reason, there were many beasts with high cultivation levels but no intelligence.
This was one of the dangers of this place.
But for Lu Xin, it was nothing. They truly couldn't even touch the wind.
So he was the first to arrive here.
At that time, the palace had not yet appeared. After it appeared, he found that he couldn't get in no matter what he tried.
Helplessly, he had to choose a good location, use 'Mustard Seed Concealment', and hide aside.
Both to wait for the palace to open, and to gather some information.
And now, useful information had come.
"Listening to their words, there might even be Grand Unity Golden Immortals coming. I wonder what kind of strength such experts truly possess."
Lu Xin was eager to see the strength of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, mainly to find a powerful one to test his own Laws.
Although these two in front of him were both mid-stage Golden Immortals, he felt that he could kill them with one move.
He didn't think much about it, because several more people had arrived, all with cultivation levels ranging from early to mid-stage Golden Immortal.
Seeing them talking together in the blink of an eye, it was clear that they were all acquaintances from nearby.
They also quickly reached an agreement with that Mountain Lord Han.
After entering, reduce the fighting.
Then more people came one after another. Before long, the first peak late-stage Golden Immortal expert arrived.
It was a middle-aged man wearing blood-red clothes with a face of majesty. As soon as he appeared, all the Golden Immortals hurriedly greeted him.
"Fellow Daoist Wu Li, you've come too."
The speaker was the Mountain Lord of a nearby mountain, one of whom was also a late-stage Golden Immortal, but he was also quite polite to the man.
Lu Xin felt that the reason why it was so was definitely not just because of the highest cultivation level.
There should be other commendable qualities.
Sure enough, after listening to their conversation, he learned that it turned out that he had comprehended a Law.
And it was a relatively rare Law of Blood.
"No wonder his aura is so unique."
Lu Xin looked at the man surrounded by people like stars surrounding the moon, and thought to himself.
"But there are already more than a dozen Golden Immortals here, and I didn't expect that only one has comprehended a Law."
"It seems that those who can comprehend a Law are indeed rare species."
He then sighed. He originally planned to gather more information, but at this moment, a loud laugh came from the sky.
"Haha, the Underworld Palace has appeared, this seat has come at the right time!"
Along with the loud laughter, a burly figure emerged.
"Grand Unity Golden Immortal!"
Upon seeing him, the expressions of the crowd changed, and even that Wu Li, who was originally smiling happily, couldn't help but have his smile freeze.
