Beidu Liujin's heart was undeniably ruthless; these individuals were all members of the Northern Crossing Lineage, and yet he had sent them down a path to death.
However, despite the cries of agony echoing around them, the outcome was completely different from what they had anticipated. The few of them were so startled by the earlier scene that they failed to notice they had safely entered the Light Screen. Those outside the Light Screen stared at them with wide eyes.
What was going on?
The cultivators who had been swept down by Beidu Liujin found themselves crashing to the ground. Although a height of over a hundred feet was nothing significant for these cultivators, it still hurt!
"Damn, I'm not dead!"
"I'm fine too!"
Northern Crossing Qing looked at the fallen members of his clan and listened to their words, feeling utterly speechless. What kind of people were these?
If Beidu Liujin still didn't understand what was happening at this point, then he had truly lived in vain.
"Why are they unharmed?" He glanced at Zuo Dao, his heart tightening. It was already quite clear that this Light Screen was selective; perhaps there were certain conditions that allowed entry. However, he had no idea what those conditions were, and no one present besides Zuo Dao seemed to know either. Beidu Liujin understood what this implied very well.
"You already know, so why ask me?" Beidu Liujin's meaning was obvious; would Zuo Dao let this golden opportunity slip away?
"One person, one treasure—any medicinal herb, divine ore, or celestial material will do. A Celestial Artifact would be even better," Zuo Dao stated plainly.
This left the Five Elders of the Northern Crossing Family grinding their teeth in anger, but they were helpless against someone who held the key to entering the Light Screen.
Zuo Dao seemed oblivious to their murderous glares and added another remark.
"Besides those from the Beidu Clan, outsiders are also eligible to enter."
His voice wasn't loud, but everyone present heard him clearly, regardless of distance. The minds of Beidu Liujin and his companions exploded with shock.
This is impossible. Why can outsiders enter the tomb of my Ancient Ancestor?
Regarding the performance of the Beidu Clan, Zuo Dao really didn't want to say anything more. Perhaps when the Northern Crossing Immortal was alive, he took good care of his Bloodline. After death, wanting to maintain the family's glory is a joke in the eyes of the immortals.
Maybe the Northern Crossing Immortal saw the future of his family, which is why he left this home before he died. The most important thing for the Cultivator lineage is inheritance. If there is no hope among the younger generation, the choice of the Northern Crossing Immortal would naturally be to give up.
From the formation outside the tomb, Zuo Dao could see that the Northern Crossing Immortal was making a choice. He had to select the best candidate to inherit his teachings. Although the Northern Crossing Family was the first choice, other Cultivators also had a chance.
Beidu Liujin wanted to stop it, but if Zuo Dao went out, everyone would hear it. If he really tried to stop him, it would lead to conflict with various major forces present.
Although Northern Crossing Star belonged to them, they did not want to become public enemies worldwide because of this. Moreover, if Zuo Dao did not act from the beginning, it would cause even greater losses for the Northern Crossing Family. After all, what difference does it make if a few more people go in? They could just kill them all inside.
Cultivators from all sides surged in like a tide, quickly surrounding the pit until it was impenetrable. There were simply too many people coming, especially after Zuo Dao made that statement; cultivators of all levels rushed over.
In their words, opportunities are equal. Even if you are from the Northern Crossing Family, you still have to follow the rules.
The allure of a Xianzuka was evident from the number of people gathered. Additionally, more and more Cultivators were arriving from even farther away.
Seeing so many people made Zuo Dao feel a bit of a headache. Did these people really think that a Xianzuka was as common as cabbage? Any Cultivator could come and join in.
Clear the area.
Beidu Liujin could no longer stand by; in front of his ancestor's tomb, it was turning into a marketplace. Zuo Dao also felt an agreement with Beidu Liujin's actions.
Look at what kind of people were there; some even brought children with them. No matter how great your opportunity is, what can a child do in a tomb?
The clearing process started off very poorly, but later on, when several other Life and Death Realm Ancient Ancestor figures from Northern Crossing Star arrived, everything changed and went smoothly.
The pressure on the Beidu Clan from other forces had a huge connection with these few individuals. Otherwise, once the foundation of the Northern Crossing Family was revealed, who else on the entire Northern Crossing Star would dare to oppose them?
The five Life and Death Realm Ancestors arrived, and with a single command, all the Cultivators except for those from the Beidu Clan dispersed, leaving only those they deemed worthy of selection.
Although these five Life and Death Realm Cultivators attempted to curry favor with Zuo Dao upon their arrival, Zuo Dao showed no reaction. It was quite awkward for him to assist in digging up someone else's ancestral grave right in front of them.
Regardless of how many people entered, it had nothing to do with Zuo Dao. In his mind, aside from Northern Crossing Qing, he truly couldn't think of anyone more qualified than him.
However, before the matters behind the scenes were resolved, a commotion erupted within the Light Screen as several individuals began to fight—five against one.
Inside the Light Screen, Northern Crossing Qing was besieged by the five Cultivators. The exact reason was unknown to everyone, but it was easy to understand. Northern Crossing Qing posed the greatest threat among the six. Although it was uncertain if anyone else would join, it was perfectly normal to eliminate the biggest threat first.
Beidu Liujin witnessed this scene and was furious, immediately killing several members of the faction that the five belonged to. The other five Life and Death Realm Cultivators from outside the Beidu Clan did not intervene.
Perhaps overwhelmed by the immense opportunity before them, those five Cultivators acted rashly and launched an attack. However, anyone with common sense knew that one should wait until there were no witnesses before committing such acts. Even if they killed a member of Northern Crossing now, had they considered the consequences?
This was right in front of their ancestral grave! The members of the faction to which those five belonged looked pale and cursed them silently. Although they wanted to flee, they were firmly locked down by Beidu Liujin.
At the same time, they cast a pleading glance at Zuo Dao, clearly indicating that if he sent more members of Northern Crossing in, the situation inside would quickly change.
Yet Zuo Dao ignored his gaze and merely watched the battle within the Light Screen with great interest. This infuriated Beidu Liujin further, leading him to kill a few more people.
If it weren't for his previous battles with Zuo Dao and Zuo Dao's earlier guidance, Northern Crossing Qing knew very well that he would have been no match for those five with his prior strength. Now, however, he had undergone a complete transformation. Not only had he significantly improved in his family's Cultivation Method, but he had also made great strides in both mindset and Realm.
With a spear in hand, he swept through everything.
The formation of the Light Screen remained a mystery; inside it was shrouded in darkness while those outside could not hear a sound. All attacks directed at the Light Screen seemed to be absorbed without effect.
Though it appeared that the five were united in their efforts, each held back slightly. Their attacks subtly constrained one another. While Northern Crossing Qing did not fear their combined strength, he was also happy to let them go easy on him. To resolve the battle quickly, he chose one of the weaker Realm Cultivators as his target.
Most of his offensive efforts focused on this particular Cultivator.
At this moment, the Beidou Ten Thousand Beasts Spear was unleashed once more, radiating an overwhelming power.
Beidu Liujin and the others watched in awe; they were familiar with this spear technique, yet witnessing it in the hands of Northern Crossing Qing revealed an entirely different realm.
If Northern Crossing Qing's previous spear technique could be likened to a wild beast, then now he had transformed into a spiritual beast. Not only had the power changed, but even the momentum had shifted. This was a qualitative change; it wasn't just the quality that had transformed, but also the quantity.
Though it was a group assault, anyone with discerning eyes could see that one person was taking on five.
At this moment, Northern Crossing Qing moved with his spear, his heart engaged, his intent flowing. Under such overwhelming circumstances, he managed to create a situation where one pressed against five.
With each thrust of the spear, a phantom trailed behind, forming a curtain of spears.
He saw in Zuo Dao what path he needed to take; from the stone, he glimpsed his future.
Each strike shattered mountains and parted seas; each blow was executed with unrestrained freedom.
Blooms of blood flowers erupted in the air. In just a few breaths, he left countless wounds on his enemies. If not for the fact that he harbored no murderous intent at this moment, his opponents would have been completely slaughtered.
Even so, this display left the five cultivators opposite him in shock; some had already begun to plead for mercy.
"Young Master Qing, please show mercy."
"Northern Crossing Daoist, it is our fault; we hope you will spare our lives."
"Ah, Northern Crossing Qing, I will haunt you even as a ghost."
Cries and screams echoed around him, yet Northern Crossing Qing seemed deaf to their pleas, his assault relentless.
Blood flowers burst forth again, splattering onto the stone door. Each drop was absorbed by the door itself. No one noticed this phenomenon except for Zuo Dao, whose eyes sparkled as if he had discovered an intriguing toy.
The stone gate was so enormous that a person standing atop it looked like an ant. The blood of the five individuals was quickly devoured by the stone gate, and the patterns stained with blood seemed to come alive, slowly writhing. If it weren't for Zuo Dao's keen observation, it would have gone unnoticed.
However, the blood of the five seemed insufficient to trigger the next change. After moving for a while, those carved patterns came to a halt.
Zuo Dao couldn't help but furrow his brow. Did it really have to come to this? After some private deliberation, Zuo Dao made his decision.
Just as everyone was captivated by the battle within the Light Screen, Zuo Dao moved, his figure flickering continuously. By the time Beidu Liujin arrived, he discovered that there were several more figures within the Light Screen. However, none of them belonged to the Beidu Clan.
Zuo Dao's actions infuriated the members of the Beidu Clan, while others seemed to misinterpret Zuo Dao's intentions. Nevertheless, they also began to take action, positioning themselves behind the five Life and Death Realm Cultivators.
Just as Beidu Liufeng was about to strike, he was stopped by North Flow.
"Thank you, Friend Zuo, for your assistance."
These words caused surprise among all present.
It was clear that Zuo Dao had allowed someone to enter and kill Northern Crossing Qing; how could the Northern Crossing Family express gratitude towards him? Even the five Life and Death Realm Cultivators who were not from the Beidu Clan turned their attention towards him.
"It's nothing; I just found that fellow inside quite pleasing to the eye."
