"I guess quite a few more people have died..."
Zhang Xuan smiled faintly.
Although the river in front of him wasn't deep, its surface was wide. To continue forward, one would have to wade across it, which involved another rule.
That was... "Remove shoes when encountering water"!
This was also what Empyrean Kong shi had said before: upon encountering water, one must take off their shoes, otherwise they would definitely be punished by the rules.
It seemed that most people, unaware of this, were unlikely to do so.
While pondering over this, Zhang Xuan indeed saw everyone hesitate for a moment before one of the cultivators stepped forward.
Their shoes-clad feet touched the water and in the next moment, their bodies immediately burst into flames.
In agony, they hurriedly plunged into the water, not knowing that the flames were not afraid of the river water at all. The mingling of water and fire only added to the pain, and in a short time, the person had turned into a corpse.
