r the depths of the Burial Ground and meet those great terrors. 。"As for the reasons behind the creation of Wan Gu Zang Tu and why his father sealed the Burial Realm, these secrets I will one day unco...The commander of the Zhenjie Army was a ruthless and taciturn man. He could subdue a group of people with just a few words.

Indeed, some prodigies began to feel uneasy upon hearing the words of the commander of the Border Defense Army.

This is a gamble with one's life after all.

They are very ambitious.

but one must also have the means to enjoy fame.

So, even though it is despicable, a small number of prodigies, some hesitant and retreating.

Of course, the vast majority of prodigies can't bring themselves to do that.

Some outstanding figures, arrogant and self-assured, were not intimidated. They believed they could handle the situation.

"Let's go."

Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back, calm and composed, leading the young geniuses of the Yun clan like Yun Xuanxu forward.

The other powerful factions' geniuses also stepped forward.

That leader of the Town Guard looked at Jun Xiaoyao once, then withdrew his gaze.

Even now, with prodigies abound and demons gathering.

Unfettered and free, he stands out like a crane among chickens, so conspicuous and remarkable.

"Follow me."

The leader of the Zhenjie Army waved his hand.

All the outstanding talents followed behind.

They entered the Three Emperors' barrier.

Looking out, the city wall is tall and ancient, like a barrier between heaven and earth. Standing before it, one feels as small as an ant.

In the void, translucent runes shimmer and swirl, casting a heart-stopping glow.

And within the Three Emperors' Barrier, vast and wide, it was like a continent itself.

Most of the people coming and going are from the Border Garrison.

Of course, there are also some scattered cultivators, as well as the powerful figures from various factions.

But these numbers are not large.

Besides, some adventurers in no man's land will also use the Three Emperors Barrier as their base camp.

If they discover something in an unpopulated area, they can also trade it here.

In short, it's vast here, capable of holding billions upon billions of creatures without issue.

Most importantly, this is only a section of the Three Emperors' Barrier.

And this commander of the town guard, when leading them in, also explained a little to them.

"The Three Emperors' Barrier is named as such to commemorate the unparalleled feat of the Three Emperors in suppressing the ancient Black Calamity."

"Besides, this is just a section of the Sanhuang Barrier."

As is well known, the Uninhabited Zone occupies about 70% of the entire Sea of Boundaries. Therefore, its borders are extremely wide.

"In order to facilitate defense, the ancients divided the vast Sanhuang Barrier into nine sections, each forming a pass."

"That is, the current Nine Gates."

"And the highest commander and leader of the Nine Great Pass is the nine Gatekeepers."

"Nine gatekeepers, each guarding a single pass."

The commander of the Zhenjie Army paused here, his gaze shifting to Ji Xiaoyao once more.

Not only him, but the other prodigies' gazes were also involuntarily drawn to Jun Xiaoyao.

The reason is simple: Jun Xiaoyao's father is one of the guardians of the Three Emperors Barrier.

Strictly speaking, even in a place like the Three Emperors Barrier, Jun Xiaoyao, with his father's reputation, should have considerable power and status.

But unfortunately, the current guardian of this level is not Heavenly Emperor.

"The level we are in is called Donling Pass, and the guardian is the Snow Moon Demon Emperor."

The commander of the Town Boundary Army said.

Upon hearing this, some prodigies who didn't get along well with Jun Xiaoyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not the checkpoint guarded by the Emperor of Heaven.

Otherwise, wouldn't being carefree be the same as going home

That was simply a domineering presence.

However, upon hearing the name Snow Moon Demon Emperor, some of the young geniuses present couldn't help but show surprise.

"Xueyue Yaodi, is the supreme demon powerhouse who unified the Tianyao universe."

"That's right, it is said that the Snow Moon Demon Emperor is very mysterious, and not many people know what he truly looks like."

But Xueyue Yaodi is known as the Emperor of the Jiehai Demon Clan, with immeasurable strength.

To become a gatekeeper, none of them are simple characters.

Whether it's the Heavenly Emperor at the end of the world, or the Red Dust Emperor who attained enlightenment in the midst of mortals.

Either this demon race's so-called Emperor, the Snow Moon Demon Emperor, is no exception to looking down upon all living beings.

Without the ability, there is no confidence to become a gatekeeper.

Many prodigies were present, their eyes couldn't help but gleam with longing.

To become a guardian is the dream of many talented young people in the vast Sea of Realms.

Every guardian is a figure worthy of being remembered throughout history.

"Alright, you're not here to play."

"Now, I can tell you, within the Three Emperor's Barrier, what is most important to you."

The commander of the Zhenjie Army spoke, and picked up a token from his waist.

"This is..."

All the prodigies looked over.

"This is a Meritorious Order, a symbol of honor within the Three Emperors' Barrier, and also a circulating currency."

"With merits, you will not only be respected by others but can also go to the Hall of Merits to exchange for various divine abilities, spells, and treasures."

The commander of the Border Defense Army's voice was thunderous.

After his explanation, all the geniuses understood.

In a place like the Three Emperors Barrier, celestial essence doesn't really have much effect. At most, it's used for refining, and it's difficult to use as currency.

And merit, is the currency of circulation.

Defeating the enemy and completing the mission will earn you merit.

The ranks of merit, from highest to lowest, are First Class Merit to Ninth Class Merit.

First class is the highest, and ninth class is the lowest.

But even the lowest rank, Ninth Grade Merit, is not easily obtained by simply killing two enemies; it is extremely difficult.

"I see. It seems similar to the border of Jiutian Immortal Realm before, where enemies were slain through merit rewards."

Jun Xiaoyao pondered to himself.

The commander of the Town Defense Army, raised his medal of merit in his hand.

"I once received six meritorious deeds, which allowed me to become a commander in the Zhenjie Army."

"If you could obtain it, you would very likely have the same status as I do now!"

Hearing this, some of the young talents present were quite excited.

That young man, doesn't he want to go into battle and kill the enemy, achieving a name that will be unmatched throughout the ages

This is the best motivation right here.

"Whew, it's actually a sixth-rank merit!"

Although it doesn't sound particularly high, it's not something we can reach.

Some prodigies are more realistic and haven't been blinded by passion. They think this is very difficult.

This leader of the Town Boundary Army is a Chaos Dao Venerable.

Even the Venerable Lord of Chaos can only receive six ranks of merit.

These prodigies, it's clear they are beyond saving.

But they were only here to train, they never expected to achieve anything.

"However, my lord commander, I have a question. How is the level of merit judged"

A prodigious talent inquired.

All present also nodded repeatedly, with curiosity.

Evaluating merit requires absolute fairness, otherwise, it will lose public trust.

The commander of the Zhenjie Army said.

"You needn't worry about that. Within my Three Emperors Barrier, there is a magical artifact called the Heaven and Earth Mirror."

Then, everyone will be given a medal of honor.

"This meritorious badge is connected to the Heavenly and Earthly Mirror. It can evaluate your contributions and achievements, and it has always done so accurately."

The Heaven and Earth Mirror, this is an extremely special magical artifact that possesses no offensive power.

...was forged to record achievements....

All the outstanding prodigies nodded.

This is good, there won't be any backroom deals.

And immediately, curiosity arose again among the crowd, as to who could be the one capable of earning such merit.

Having thought of this, everyone's eyes fell unanimously on Jun Xiaoyao. with full force!Throughout the heavens and earth, a raging wind swept across the sky, wreaking havoc upon the very firmament! The void itself was ripped asunder!A tyrannical aura of a quasi-emperor s...
