Chapter 6199 Wrath of the Palace
- The Grand Basilica, Empyrean Hall.
- Thirty-six ancient star-orbs hung high beneath the vault, circling day and night, casting the entire hall in blazing gold. The floor was laid from a single piece of riverborn celestial jade, polished bright enough to reflect a person's face. Every inch of it carried the weight of absolute authority.
- This was the core of the Celestial Palace's power, the holy ground countless cultivators across the heavens looked up to. On ordinary days, the hall was always orderly and severe. But today, a suffocating stillness had sealed over everything.
