Chapter 2423

With the opening of the Lightning Divine Palace, the million foreign races lost control and took the lead to charge into the Lightning Divine Palace.

The instant they entered the Lightning Divine Palace, it was as though they had entered a majestic city, with buildings appearing all around them.

These buildings flickered with lightning, emitting an intense pressure.

This was a group of buildings, and there were a lot of them. Looking at them, there were no less than ten thousand buildings. Rays of light flickered, and foreign race cultivators appeared in various places.

Just as they stabilized their bodies, before they could check their surroundings to see if there were any abnormalities, cries of surprise rang out one after another.

On their bodies, a ray of energy was forcefully sucked away, flying towards the sky.

Above the sky, there was a whirlpool of lightning revolving around it. The whirlpool of lightning was extremely large, completely enveloping this huge city.

"What's going on? My energy is decreasing!"

"Mine too!"

"Mine has decreased by a full ten percent!"

"Damn it, my energy is continuously decreasing!"

Similar cries of surprise rang out unceasingly. All of the foreign races that entered this place had their energy reduced by ten percent.

Not only did they lose ten percent of their energy, they also gave people a feeling of weakness.

Just as they arrived, a similar situation occurred. This caused many of the foreign races to feel hesitant and uneasy in their hearts.

"Whatever, the opportunity is right in front of us. Let's go!"

Among them, there were also some who did not care about anything else, wholeheartedly aiming for the opportunity. They flew forward, with the opportunity as their goal.

Among them, there were also some who had their eyes on the nearby buildings. To the mysterious Lightning Divine Palace, there might be some unexpected surprises here.

Thus, they turned around and rushed towards those buildings, vigorously attacking the doors of those buildings.

"Boom!"

Following the violent surge of energy, the doors of those buildings were forcefully destroyed. Lightning flickered within, as though lightning snakes were surging.

The lightning was exceptionally glaring, and everyone could only quietly wait for it to disperse.

As the lightning dispersed, the insides of the buildings were completely revealed. Some were empty, while some were soldiers wearing battle armor.

These soldiers were all powerful and had extraordinary battle prowess. They held onto their weapons and charged out.

After an intense battle, the figures of these soldiers would disappear into thin air, leaving behind a ground full of corpses.

Other than the soldiers, they did not find anything valuable in these buildings.

After paying a huge price, they began to advance towards the depths, no longer caring about these buildings.

Along the way, because too many soldiers had charged out, they were still suffering losses.

…

…

Those non-humankind beings who had an agreement with Zi Chen walked in. After arriving, they didn't sense anything unusual, nor did they know what was going on.

The pressure of this place made them fearful, and the huge vortex above their heads made their hearts palpitate.

As they were a little later than the others, they advanced at full speed for fear of missing out on the opportunity. Later on, when they heard the exclamations about the loss of energy, they understood everything. Immediately, their faces were filled with surprise and gratitude.

Clearly, they were unharmed because of Zi Chen, because of Zi Chen's words, and also because of the ball of lightning that fell from above their heads.

…

…

By the time Doff Hill entered, the place was already filled with battle cries. His face was filled with a smug sneer. "You want to stop me? Hmph …"

His proud laughter had yet to completely fade when his expression underwent a drastic change. The energy within his body was rapidly flowing away.

"What's going on?"

He looked around and didn't find anything unusual, but the energy in his body was still flowing away. In addition, the vitality in his body was also flowing away.

He looked around in panic, then saw the huge lightning vortex above his head. He could feel that the energy and vitality that had disappeared was being absorbed by this vortex.

"Damn it, what's going on?!"

His expression was extremely ugly. The energy in his body was crazily surging, and he didn't hesitate to use the Heavenly God's bone. During this time, he tried many methods, but still couldn't stop the loss of energy and vitality.

This situation continued until 75% of the energy and vitality in his body was gone.

This was a permanent loss, not a temporary loss.

"What's going on?" Doff Hill was very depressed that he had suffered losses just after arriving here.

At this time, the other members of the Doff Family appeared. Their situation was exactly the same as Doff Hill's. 75% of the energy and vitality in their body was gone.

They were at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

"Damn it, if I didn't lose 65% of my energy, how could I lose to you?!"

At this time, a shrill scream came from afar. It was a Heaven Realm expert who was pierced through by a soldier.

The cultivators from the Doff Family heard this and their expressions immediately turned ugly.

Their opponent had only lost 65% of his energy, but they had lost 75%.

"Zi Chen, it must be Zi Chen!"

In an instant, they thought of Zi Chen's words and guessed the reason for this abnormality.

Then, they released their spiritual thoughts and spread it around. Then, the cultivators of the Huo Te Family who appeared here also experienced the same thing. Everyone's energy in their body had been reduced by 75%.

For a moment, they hated Zi Chen very much.

75% of their energy and vitality was too great a loss.

Following this, the Great Saints of the Other Tribes and the other tribes entered this place.

After these Great Sages entered, twenty percent of the energy in their bodies disappeared.

This was an unimaginable blow to them.

"What's going on? 65% of my energy is gone!"

"What's sucking my energy away?!"

"Damn it, my energy is disappearing!"

After the Great Saints of the Other Tribes, such exclamations came from the surroundings. It was the ordinary Other Tribes who lost 65% of their energy. The disappearing energy turned into balls of light and entered the vortex above their heads.

These Great Sages naturally heard the exclamations around them, which made their faces turn very ugly.

It was obvious that the disappearance of 75% of the energy was due to what Zi Chen had said back then.

"Damn it, to think that such a thing would happen. Pass down the order, don't let everyone get separated." Great Saint Foundation said coldly.

Losing 75% of their energy for no reason was equivalent to losing 75% of their combat strength. This was undoubtedly a huge loss for these Great Saints who were evenly matched.

Moreover, this was the Lightning Divine Palace, which was full of danger. Naturally, they couldn't be careless.

…

…

The next to appear was the Jiatu Family. After they appeared, they didn't lose anything because of their agreement with Zi Chen.

Regarding this, Jiatu Qisheng exclaimed that he had profited greatly from the deal with Zi Chen.

As for the other people from the Jiatu Family, they nodded one after another, especially the elders who had opposed this deal. At this moment, they were incomparably ashamed.

The only thing that made them a little uncomfortable was that their Great Saints had lost 65% of their combat strength.

This was because the Jiatu Family had chosen not to enter, and then Zi Chen had informed all the Other Tribe Great Saints that they were forbidden from entering the Lightning Divine Palace. This naturally included the Great Saints of the Jiatu Family.

After that, Zi Chen had acknowledged them again, but they still lost 65% of their combat strength.

However, compared to the other Great Saints, the Great Saints of the Jiatu Family were undoubtedly lucky. If Jiatu Qisheng hadn't delayed for a while, they would be even luckier.

This could only be said to be a pity.

…

…

As the cultivators on the life star, they were the last to appear.

After they appeared, rays of light fell from the vortex above their heads.

These rays of light targeted everyone, and a ray of light fell on each of them.

As these rays of light fell, their combat strength and vitality directly increased by 65%.

Among them, the more than 755 existences that Zi Chen had specifically named, as well as the Great Saints, had their energy and vitality increased by 75%.

After feeling his own strength, the Black Tortoise Great Sage couldn't help but exclaim, "Unbelievable, truly unbelievable!"

The other Great Saints nodded one after another, their faces full of surprise.

"Back then, that Heaven-Defying Great Saint didn't do such a thing. Zi Chen, you are indeed not an ordinary Heaven-Defying Great Saint!" The Green Dragon Great Sage exclaimed.

They all had such obvious changes, so what would Zi Chen, the Heaven-Defying Great Saint who was favored by the Heavens, do?

Everyone looked at Zi Chen, their faces full of anticipation.

"My strength has increased by 85%!"

Zi Chen felt his body and said, "This way, if other Other Tribe Outsiders enter this place, my strength will increase greatly."

If Zi Chen didn't use those rays of light, his strength might increase by two times.

However, Zi Chen chose to share the energy instead of monopolizing the increase in strength.

Looking around, Zi Chen sized up the Lightning Divine Palace.

Previously, he had come to the Lightning Divine Palace. However, at that time, the Lightning Divine Palace was just a large hall. When he entered, he suffered a great loss.

Of course, the loss back then was just a joke in today's eyes.

Compared to the Lightning Divine Palace in front of him, the Lightning Divine Palace back then was more like a game played by the Lightning Divine Palace and the cultivators on the life star.

Back then, there was an expert who predicted that the time wasn't right, and that the next time would be the beginning of the Heaven-Defying Battle.

Was it this time?

As far as the eye could see, there were many buildings here. Soldiers wearing battle armor could be seen emerging from these buildings, fighting against the foreign races.

These soldiers were very strong. After killing some of the Other Tribe Outsiders, their figures disappeared into thin air.

Under the perception of Zi Chen's powerful spiritual sense, he found that the number of Other Tribe Outsiders killed by these soldiers was the same. It was as if there was some kind of target, and after killing a certain number, they would disappear.

At the same time, the corpses of the Other Tribe Outsiders that died would quickly decompose, turning into energy and dissipating. Even the Saint Cores in their bodies were decomposed.

His spiritual sense continued to extend, and he found that this place was a huge city, and not just a simple Lightning Divine Palace.

Just like the Lightning Divine Palace back then, which had been magnified countless times out of thin air, this was merely the beginning. They had yet to reach the direction of the first level of the palace, and they had yet to meet that guardian expert who was wearing battle armor and holding a heaven-defying artifact.
