Starting With 100 Million Lives-Chapter 697: There must be a trick, right?

The experts of the Three Races have long been resentful toward the Emperor Venerable Palace.

In this regard, not even the Golden Profound Race is an exception.

Think back to when Zhong Cuo was not around; their Four Races were equals and rulers of the Profound Realm.

But after Zhong Cuo's appearance, everyone in the Emperor Venerable Palace was above them.

Even the mere Divine Envoys could berate and punish them; they had long had enough of such days.

Now with Brother Cheng leading the way, their reversal is not surprising.

"Charge!"

"Destroy the Emperor Venerable Palace!"

"Exterminate the rebellious Zhong Cuo!"

At this time, a large number of experts also emerged from within the Emperor Venerable Palace.

"Bold traitors!"

"How dare you collide with the Emperor Venerable Palace and kill the Divine Envoys!"

"Annihilate!"

The leading dozens of giants, their blood and energy like smoke, permeated in the air as if tangible.

Stepping onto the battlefield, they were like ancient War Gods descending.

They wielded their weapons to strike, many in the Emperor Profound Realm were hit like by thunder, severely injured and retreated.

Large areas of those in the Celestial Profound Realm were crushed to death, dispersed into mud.

Just as the Emperor Profound Ninth Layers tangled with the group of giants, both sides engaged in a desperate battle, the entire Emperor Venerable Palace suddenly shook.

Immediately, countless restriction attacks far beyond top-tier Spiritual Patterns were launched simultaneously.

In an instant, the sky turned dark, the battlefield flowed with rivers of blood, unbearably tragic!

After all, the Emperor Venerable Palace is the old lair the Child of the Plane has managed for years; if they had no means, it would be abnormal instead.

However, this was nothing for Brother Cheng.

Fifty Profound Patterns emerged, instantly slicing two giants facing him into fragments with endless Profound Pattern Power.

Shattered to the ground.

Upon looking again, these giants were not real people but puppet-like artificials.

It's just that someone had miraculously granted them Profound Patterns and Qi and Blood Power, giving them formidable combat power.

This Zhong Cuo does have some skill.

Even Sect Leader Jiang had to praise.

After taking down more than a dozen giants, he grabbed Li Hanyu.

At this time, the entire Emperor Venerable Palace was plunged into extreme chaos; fatal danger lurked everywhere.

Even in the Emperor Profound Realm, it was hard to survive here; this woman better not follow and end up dead.

After pulling Li Hanyu into the Xuanji Map, he himself also exited the battle zone.

Immediately opened Insight, searching everywhere for treasures.

As for the ongoing fight?

Are there not still experts from the Three Races!

These people are not his own; Brother Cheng would not clean up all the enemies for them, making them use no effort.

To be counted realistically, the Three Races were previously also enemies.

With his disappearance, the battle outside quickly became evenly matched.

Fighting fiercely.

The experts of the Three Races initially hoped to stand at the rear waving flags, but now, they have no choice but to fight.

Things have developed to a point where there's no turning back.

Brother Cheng, who instigated the war, opened Insight, busily wandering around like a man with nothing to do.

Soon, many palaces were emptied by him.

After busying for half a day, the battle outside was still intense.

After a random check, at least treasures worth two trillion merits were acquired this round.

This harvest was already very significant.

But Brother Cheng felt something was wrong.

Previously, from the experts of the Three Races, it was not just this amount.

This was the grand Emperor Venerable Palace, a Child of the Plane that developed for five billion years; how could it only hold such an amount?

"Looks like there's a conspiracy on the other side."

The Azure Dragon Empress's voice came from the Speed's Profound Pattern within the Profound Essence.

"Until now, Zhong Cuo himself hasn't appeared."

"Moreover, his subordinates shouldn't just be this many."

"Hmm, it's indeed suspicious!"

Brother Cheng nodded with a solemn expression, agreeing with this judgment.

Then, he directly flew toward the Profound Transformation Pool.

"What are you doing?" Cang Ling was momentarily unable to understand.

Brother Cheng naturally said, "Going in for a Profound Body, isn't this the purpose of my trip?"

"But Zhong Cuo hasn't appeared; the enemies clearly have sinister plots..."

"I know."

Brother Cheng spoke as he directly barged into the Profound Transformation Pool.

Cang Ling was completely speechless.

Knowing things are not right, shouldn't he investigate thoroughly?

He still busies himself with matters unrelated to the battle?

Can it get any more absurd?

Not only was she puzzled, but Zhong Cuo and Ling Xuanchen in the shadows were also confused.

Zhong Cuo's seclusion had not yet ended, inconvenient for battle; currently, what came out was just a projection.

Their initial plan was for Ling Xuanchen to pretend to retreat while fighting, luring Brother Cheng into an ambush in a certain area of the Emperor Venerable Palace.

There it was directly connected to the gathering place of the Shadow Race in the Seventh Layer of the Profound Realm.

Whether Xuan Race People or Immortal Race People, none survived long there.

But who could have anticipated Brother Cheng's combat power was too strong; Ling Xuanchen could barely withstand his offensive.

In such circumstances, let alone feigning retreat to lure in, another minute of fighting would see Ling Xuanchen truly dead.

Thus, this plan could only be shelved.

Just as Zhong Cuo himself intended to stay hidden like a turtle, enduring secretly for decades, planning to re-emerge after achieving Great Success in Divine Skills, Jiang Cheng voluntarily stepped into the Profound Transformation Pool.

The Profound Transformation Pool wasn't the ambush location for this plan.

But in terms of danger level, it was actually riskier than their original ambush.

The Profound Transformation Pool could give anyone a new Profound Body, although the process was painful, there was no life danger.

However, during acquiring a Profound Body, one's guard would be completely lowered.

Otherwise, how could the Profound Transformation Pool transform you?

During this process, the person inside would be completely unguarded, with Profound Patterns, Profound Essence, and Immortal Power all in a temporary dormant state.

If not done so, it would be impossible to get the Profound Body.

At this time, if someone outside suddenly intervened, the person inside would die unknowingly.

Zhong Cuo destroyed all the Profound Transformation Pools from the second to fifth layers to prevent following Alien Race People from obtaining Profound Bodies, unable to break through to the Emperor Profound Realm.

Yet, he deliberately left one on the sixth layer.

As a deliberate bait, awaiting the fish to bite.

Any Immortal Demon that rushed into this Profound Transformation Pool died inside without exception.

Over time, some Celestial Profound Realm Ninth Layer Immortal Demons simply refrained from breaking through.

Everyone knew this was a deadly trap, why jump in foolishly.

They truly didn't expect, this known sure-death trap, 'Li Junlang' would step right in.

It greatly surprised them.

"Did he really go in?"

"Went in, no mistake; the Profound Transformation Pool responded."

"This..."

Zhong Cuo and Ling Xuanchen were somewhat incredulous.

"Could it be a trick?"

In their view, Li Junlang must also be a Child of the Plane blessed with immense luck.

Such a person could not possibly make such a low-level mistake.

Did not heaven's rules disallow those with body-protecting luck to die in such an absurd manner?

"Let's observe a bit longer."

"Yes, maybe after entering he didn't lower his guard..."

While they secretly watched with hopeful and joyful hearts, inside, Brother Cheng began the process of obtaining the Profound Body.
