Chapter 2030

The elderly woman’s pressure descended on Xu Nian like an enormous divine mountain.

The people around from Tianqing Palace watched with an air of amusement, not intending to help at all.

Xu Nian faced this terrifying pressure without a hint of disturbance on his face, as if it didn’t affect him in the slightest.

"I’m not trying to use the Shenxiao Sword Sect to press you, senior, but I think there is no conflict between us, so there’s no need to become enemies," Xu Nian said with a smile.

"Humph, no conflict? You killed my disciple and you say there’s no conflict?" the elderly woman snorted coldly, her overwhelming pressure instantly bearing down on Xu Nian.

It seemed she wanted to completely crush this reckless youngster.

However, when her pressure landed on Xu Nian, there was no reaction, as though he was completely unaffected.

"How is this possible?" The elderly woman showed an incredibly surprised expression.

The other members of Qing Liu Palace and Tianqing Palace also looked at Xu Nian in astonishment.

It was clear they hadn’t expected a God to withstand the pressure from their Vice Palace Master.

"Senior, with the war imminent, do you really want to take action against me?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.

Hearing Xu Nian’s words, the elderly woman furrowed her brows slightly.

Even though she didn’t understand how this God resisted her pressure, she still didn’t take a God seriously.

Moreover, Red Lotus had already betrayed her, and she had no affection for that disciple; dead was dead, there was no need to avenge her.

Besides, the fight for the Spiritual Treasure was about to begin, it wasn’t a time to be distracted.

"I’ll let you off this time, it seems you’re lucky," the elderly woman snorted coldly.

Having said that, she no longer paid attention to Xu Nian.

The other Qing Liu Palace members naturally also looked down on Xu Nian’s group.

Luo Shan let out a small sigh of relief; if the Vice Palace Master of Qing Liu Palace had really taken action, they would have been in trouble.

But seeing Xu Nian so calm, he didn’t feel too flustered in his heart.

"With your strength, you shouldn’t be afraid of her, right? I’d really like to see you kill that old hag," Lu Qinxin said to Xu Nian through a voice transmission.

Clearly, the old hag’s arrogance was quite annoying to her.

Xu Nian chuckled and replied through a voice transmission, "Now’s not the time to take action, and besides, there’s no real enmity between us, no need to be so drastic."

Lu Qinxin nodded and continued to ask via voice transmission, "What are you going to do next? Follow these people and then reap the benefits?"

"I indeed have such thoughts, but these people won’t be so kind as to let us follow them. If we really encounter danger later, just make sure we’re not at the forefront," Xu Nian nodded and said.

"Don’t worry, we’re not fools. These people want to use us, but they’re far from capable of it," Lu Qinxin said with a sneer.

Xu Nian smiled slightly and continued to look forward.

The storm in front became even more violent, and countless cracks began to appear in the surrounding space.

The waters of Divine Wind Lake were also completely stirred, and the entire lake began to shake violently.

That God King Level dragon evidently couldn’t withstand it, and began to roar.

As its roar sounded, three figures emerged from the waters, forming a Four Symbols Array with four Divine Beasts, directly charging towards the storm’s core in the Heavenly Dome.

With the intervention of the four God King Level Divine Beasts, the storm gradually stabilized.

However, the four God King Level Divine Beasts clearly couldn’t free themselves in a short time, they could only desperately maintain the array.

"Move!"

Finally, the surrounding experts couldn’t hold back any longer, and with a roar, they all rushed towards the center of the lake.

The elderly man from Tianqing Palace and the elderly woman from Qing Liu Palace didn’t hesitate either, and directly darted out.

The crowd naturally followed.

"Let’s go too!" Xu Nian immediately darted out.

Lu Qinxin and Luo Shan followed closely behind.

As soon as they entered the space above the lake, Xu Nian felt a terrifying pulling force, as if trying to tear him apart.

Fortunately, Xu Nian’s physical body was exceptionally strong, and faced with this terrifying pulling force, he was barely affected.

Lu Qinxin and Luo Shan were not so fortunate, they both chose to envelop themselves entirely with Divine Power.

However, the storm around them was particularly peculiar, capable of extracting Divine Power from people.

Moreover, the storm could influence emotions, those not mentally strong would easily feel a surge of rage, leading to impulsive actions.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Luo Shan let out a scream, almost swept into a nearby restriction by the storm.

If Xu Nian hadn’t suddenly pulled him, he would have been shredded by the restriction.

"Be careful," Xu Nian reminded.

"Yes!" Luo Shan said with some lingering fear.

"Let’s head to the lake’s bottom! The Spiritual Treasure is in the palace below," the Tianqing Palace elder shouted.

Then he led the Tianqing Palace members and plunged underwater.

Qing Liu Palace followed close behind.

The major factions around also followed suit.

Xu Nian led Luo Shan and Lu Qinxin and followed.

However, the restrictions at the lake’s bottom were even more terrifying, some Daluo God Level experts were shredded by the terrible restrictions as soon as they entered.

Xu Nian personally witnessed a Daluo God Middle Stage Level youth, right in front of him, being sliced in half by the light from a terrifying restriction, even his soul was annihilated.

"What terrifying restrictions!" Xu Nian looked at the flashing restrictions around, incredibly surprised.

If he got caught in these restrictions, he would have a hard time resisting them too.

Due to the resistance from the restrictions, everyone’s advance slowed significantly.

But as they progressed, they soon reached the core depth of the lake.

There, everyone saw a huge underwater palace.

"That must be where the Spiritual Treasure is," someone said.

Everyone’s eyes became fervent.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Two people immediately darted towards the palace.

However, before they got close to the palace gates, two beams of horrible light hit them instantly, turning them to ashes on the spot.

"There’s something strange about the palace’s entrance!" someone immediately exclaimed.

Everyone looked at the palace gates in surprise, their eyes becoming alert.

Xu Nian also examined the palace gates, his gaze turning serious.

"It turns out to be a God King Level Formation," Xu Nian said, observing the divine patterns on the palace.

It was clear the palace was guarded by a formidable Killing Array, anyone who dared to enter would be struck by the array.

For a time, everyone was in a stalemate.

And just as everyone was troubled by this Killing Array.

Above the lake, the four Divine Beasts gathered together, conversing with cold smiles.

"These people really think the Spiritual Treasure is so easily obtained. Once they struggle to enter the palace, they’ll realize it was all their master’s setup," the previous dragon said with a cold smile.

"They’re nothing but ants, the Spiritual Treasure is beyond their reach. However, since we can’t step into that palace, it’s up to them to open the restrictions. We’ll play along for now, once they release the master, we’ll act and reclaim the Spiritual Treasure," the leader of the four Divine Beasts, a black-robed figure, said with a cold smile.

The other three exchanged mocking smiles upon hearing this.
