Chapter 469: Chapter 288: The Assessment of Rule Mountain Begins_1

At this moment, as the Seventh Order Strongman retreated, the armies sent out from various forbidden areas naturally began to withdraw as well.

As for the Dragon King Palace Army, it started to advance slowly.

But in front of them lay the Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area, and Ye Feng was not going to provoke intentionally, so he led the army straight through it.

No matter how one looked at it, these forbidden areas were under the watch of Eighth Order Strongmen.

If he really angered the other side, and they unleashed Eighth Order power in an attack, he had no confidence that he could withstand it.

Therefore, the current direction of the army’s advance was veering to the right, towards the forbidden area near the capital, which was temporarily named the Northern Forbidden Zone by the officials.

The Northern Forbidden Zone was also the only one of the nine major forbidden areas that had not made a move against Ye Feng and his forces.

Though it was unclear why, there was no doubt that this forbidden area’s attitude towards them was at least a bit better than the other eight major forbidden areas.

Of course, even so, Ye Feng did not dare to really approach the army close to it.

Eventually, he stopped between the Small Phoenix Mountain Restricted Area and the Northern Forbidden Zone.

Even Ye Feng did not approach Rule Mountain too closely, just entering within its enveloping range was sufficient.

As for how to determine this range, it was actually quite simple because once they got close enough, the concentration of Spiritual Energy would surge to ten times that of the outside world.

At the same time, a voice would emerge in their minds: "Congratulations on passing the basic selection."

When Chen Dalong and the others heard the voice that appeared in their minds, everyone finally breathed a long sigh of relief, and smiles involuntarily appeared on their faces.

"I never imagined this place to be so dangerous, and that I would still be alive to come here," Fang Ziyuan couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Yeah! It’s a good thing the Dragon King was strong enough to withstand the pressure of the eight great forbidden areas and brought us here," Bai Junheng also sighed with emotion.

Before, when they came here and saw Rule Mountain completely sealed off by the Nine Major Forbidden Areas, he had not held out much hope.

But no one expected the Dragon King to be so fierce, fighting beyond his level, facing eight alone, and still managing to kill one.

If it weren’t for such a fierce battle record, their entrance here wouldn’t have been so smooth, and the opposition might have continued to drag things out with them.

"But we can’t be too happy, the opportunity struggle on Rule Mountain is unclear to everyone, and if we have to separate from the Dragon Hall then, everyone must fend for themselves!" Wu Yuqin then poured cold water on everyone’s spirits.

Not only Fang Ziyuan and the others heard this, but the people around them who were cheering also heard it, and the smiles on their faces disappeared, turning solemn.

They all looked at each other, with many people’s gazes falling on the top powerhouses in the group.

And the gaze that fell on Chen Dalong was naturally the most numerous, for his strength was the strongest.

This power was not only demonstrated against those puppets, but even when facing Forbidden Area Creatures, he did not falter, managing to kill them head-on.

Increasingly observed by more people, Chen Dalong withdrew his gaze from Rule Mountain and said in a deep voice as he surveyed the crowd.

"I don’t have much to say either; my advice to you is, if you want to ascend and fight for opportunity, then be prepared to die."

"Those who aren’t prepared just need to leave the range of Rule Mountain, and after half an hour, you can leave safely."

After speaking, Chen Dalong did not say more but instead took out the little remaining rations from his combat pack, began eating, and started adjusting his condition.

Knowing such a response, everyone realized they could only count on themselves from then on.

However, no one was actually retreating.

If they hadn’t come here and seen what was happening, it would have been different.

But having seen the Forbidden Area Creatures’ indifferent slaughtering attitude toward humans, who would contentedly wait for death?

If they entered Rule Mountain, maybe they had a chance to become Seventh Order Strongmen; then, when these forbidden area powerhouses came out later, they would at least have the power to resist.

Soon, people stopped talking and began to rest like Chen Dalong, recovering their physical strength and Spiritual Energy.

If there were injured people, they immediately sought out Superhumans skilled in healing to help with their injuries. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Just when everyone thought they would wait quietly for the opening of Rule Mountain, suddenly, there was a disturbance from the back of the group.

Human powerhouses were at the very back of the group, so they were the first to react, turning around to look behind them immediately.

Then they saw a group of humans gesturing in prayer while hurrying over as quickly as they could.

The newcomers were also of Asian descent, but it was not clear yet from which country they came.

"They really know how to pick their time, showing up only after the battle ended," Fang Ziyuan muttered upon seeing this, then paid no more attention.

The rest glanced back and then resumed resting.

Since the Dragon King didn’t send any creatures to stop them, they said nothing more.

Initially everyone thought this was just a minor episode, but unexpectedly, it was just the beginning.

One after another, groups arrived, not just humans, but also various Mutated Animals and Mutated Insects.

"What the! What’s going on here? Where did all these people come from?" someone couldn’t help but mutter.

Some people even stood up and walked directly over to these newly arrived groups to inquire about the situation.
