Lu Qingfeng flicked his finger, and the thirty-six White Cloud Sky Stairs that stretched across the heavens dissolved into illusion. Those on the stairs tumbled down, only to be caught by the white clouds. Some landed on certain peaks of Zhenyuan Mountain and could still see Lu Qingfeng's silhouette upon the Cloud Platform from afar. Others fell directly outside the boundaries of Zhenyuan Mountain, a hundred miles away.
The Dutian Ghost Generals and Xuanming Yin Soldiers approached the Void once more.
The cloaking mists and the Great Array outside Zhenyuan Mountain rose again, severing the inside from the outside.
There were those who had just arrived, those who were watching from outside and hadn't yet entered, and those who had just been flung out or had fallen; all were barred from entering.
"What's going on?"
"How did I end up outside?!"
"I traveled here from three thousand miles away, my shoes worn through a dozen pairs, begging Duke Guangyuan for mercy to let me in!"
