The only worry was whether that middle-aged man would stir up trouble. However, it didn't matter. If the opponent's master insisted on being adversarial, it was a good opportunity for him to showcase his abilities and attract the attention of Zi Yun Xianzi.
The Zi Yun family, where Zi Yun Xianzi resided, was a medium power in the Martial Domain. The family typically had a mid-stage Martial God overseeing it, but it lacked any top-tier strongholds, not belonging to the highest echelons of power.
Even if the ancestors of those families appeared at the last moment, Qin Chen was confident enough to leave without fearing anyone.
Of course, this was the worst-case scenario. He didn’t come here to compete for strength; more importantly, he aimed to enter the Ji family.
As he thought about this, Qin Chen strode towards the mountain peak. This mountain wasn't tall, but it was exceptionally beautiful and filled with spiritual energy, exuding an indescribable majesty.
As Qin Chen walked, he felt an odd sensation as if a mysterious power was pressing down on him the higher he ascended, a very simplistic rule power manifesting as profound energy, suppressing the people on the mountain.
Moreover, the higher he went, the stronger the suppressive force became, almost making him want to kneel in reverence.
Qin Chen snorted coldly. Although he was not a Nineth Level Martial God, he had at least comprehended the Spatial Law. This level of profound energy naturally couldn't make him kneel.
With a gentle shake, he expelled the force outside his body, rendering it incapable of approaching him in the slightest.
However, on both sides of the mountain path, some people were kneeling, and they were mostly at the Martial King level. Many were half-step Martial Kings, and quite a few were very young, some only around sixteen or seventeen years old. They were clearly talented disciples from nearby forces, here to comprehend this profound energy and attempt to step into the realm of Martial Emperor.
This was because the power of rules here contained a significant amount of spatial profound energy, which could help individuals comprehend the Spatial Law and advance to the Martial Emperor realm.
Of course, this spatial power was inferior to the Ancient Yu Realm, but it was still quite formidable.
Qin Chen was somewhat surprised. Could it be that this mountain held some significance? Yet, when he visited Jizhou in his past life, he had never heard of a mountain like this that resembled a spatial secret realm.
Perhaps he had only visited the Ji family once or twice in his former life and hadn't taken notice?
That made sense, as the history of the Tianwu Continent was too long, and there were too many secret realms across the continent. Even the most remote areas of the Beitian Region had secret realms, let alone the Martial Domain's Three Realms.
The Three Realms were the highest places in the Tianwu Continent, where many top-tier forces had established their bases. Additionally, half of the top-tier forbidden places in the Martial Domain were located in the Three Realms. Having such a simple holy site was quite natural.
When Qin Chen visited the Ji family in his previous life, he was already a peak Martial Emperor, so he wouldn't have paid attention to such trivial places.
As Qin Chen passed through the crowd and continued upward, approximately a stick of incense later, he finally reached the mountain peak.
It was a large platform surrounded by at least a dozen circles of people. Naturally, there were the most people on the outermost circle, with more than a hundred individuals, while the innermost circle had only about ten people.
At the center of the platform was a small herbal garden where various spiritual herbs and celestial vines grew abundantly, with a rich medicinal aroma filling the air. In the middle of the herbal garden stood an altar, upon which grew a purple Imperial Herb with nine leaves.
This Imperial Herb had nine leaves, each containing the aura of a great path that captivated onlookers. Moreover, each leaf bore nine fruits formed from the rules of the great path, formless and weightless, containing great path runes and aura, which were astonishing.
