After the Four Immortal Emperors had removed the Great Formation Boundary Barrier, they disappeared into the sky. When they left, the powerful pressure that had enveloped the sky also disappeared. The people below breathed out softly and stood up one after another.
“Has the boundary barrier and restrictions been removed? Really been removed?” Someone murmured and asked, his face was filled with disbelief.
“I’ll go up and take a look.” Another cultivator was unable to contain his excitement. He didn’t care that he was injured, and rose up into the air.
At that moment, Feng Jiu was looking at the surroundings of the floating land. The sight that had originally been hidden by clouds had begun to appear in front of her. Beyond the blue sky and white clouds, there were forests and towns below.
“So I see.”
She spoke softly and a smile appeared on her beautiful face. This place was not somewhere else but was in the upper continent. It was just that the ground of this floating place was in the sky above, on top of the white clouds and hidden by boundary barriers and restrictions. That’s why the people below were unable to see it, nor could they get inside. And as for the people inside, they were also unable to get out or see past the outside of this place.
“Hahahahaha! It’s really been removed! It’s really been removed!” The devilry cultivators rose in the air one after another and looked at the scene outside. They were so excited that they laughed out loud.
Of course, they didn’t forget who gave them the opportunity to see the sky again and the chance to leave this place. Therefore, nearly two thousand devilry cultivators, whether they were in midair or in the forest below, bowed respectfully to Feng Jiu.
“Thank you, Phoenix City Lord!”
Excited voices that contained unconcealable joy escaped the mouths of the devilry cultivators. Their eyes fell on the dazzling red figure. They looked at her beautiful face as if they were trying to etch her into their memories forever.
Feng Jiu glanced at them and a voice that contained coercion came out of her mouth slowly: “Alright, the boundary barriers and restrictions have been removed, you are free to leave! But once you get outside, you have to remember what I have said.”
“Yes! We will take our leave!” Everyone responded in unison. Some rose directly into the air while some laughed loudly and left on their flying swords, and some flew out magical artifacts…
After a short while, all those people had left and only the people of Phoenix City remained.
At this time, Feng Jiu cast a new boundary barrier and isolated the entire floating land. The difference was that she had left an entrance in the boundary barrier so that one may enter or leave.
After the boundary barrier had been cast, she returned to the center of Phoenix City from midair. She looked at everyone and said slowly: “Now that the devil cultivators in this place have left, I have cast a new boundary barrier around this place. In the future, people without permission will not be allowed to enter. I also need some people to guard this place. Which ones of you are willing to stay behind to guard this place?”
“Master, we are all willing to stay behind!” One by one, every one of the cultivators of Phoenix City answered.
“That’s right Master. As long as you give the order, we are all willing to stay behind and stand guard.”
Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu nodded and smiled: “Tell you what! You have all been trapped in this place for many years, it is a bit unreasonable to ask you to stay behind, so you can take turns in shifts!”
She looked at them: “Elder Gu will pick a few people for guard duty shifts.”
