Chapter 721: Chapter 246: Ancient Palace (5555 words)_3
But then, Chen Fan saw another palace!
The entire palace was built on a towering mountain.
The palace almost completely enveloped the mountain!
Unique stones were scattered on the ground, pavilions adorned the place, tall and magnificent halls rose high, and towers loomed, creating a majestic atmosphere.
Unlike the ancient temple palace he had seen before, here there was no ice. It was like springtime, the trees lush and full, birds chirping melodiously amid the mountains.
In the sky above, a beam of light spilled down, rendering the palace extraordinarily pure and holy.
“Come… come here…”
The voice of the Five-colored Divine Stone echoed in Chen Fan’s mind, startling him greatly!
Prior to this, the voice of the Five-colored Divine Stone had always been faint and indistinct, very weak.
Even in the 5th Restricted Area, it was the same.
But just now, the voice of the Five-colored Divine Stone sounded as if the Divine Stone was right in front of him!
The voice was so clear!
Chen Fan widened his eyes, looking towards the palace at the top of the mountain ahead.
The voice of the Five-colored Divine Stone, it was coming from that palace!
The Five-colored Divine Stone wanted him to go to that palace!
Overjoyed, Chen Fan took a leap, stirred his Spiritual Power, and took off into the air…
“Bang!”
Just as he leaped up, he felt a mountainous pressure suddenly attacking without warning, causing him to fall flat on his face, right at the foot of the altar!
“What’s going on?”
Chen Fan was startled and got up.
Standing at the foot of the altar, he twisted his neck and moved his hands and feet.
Everything was normal.
Spiritual power rolled out once more, lifting him up three feet off the ground…
An unfathomable vast force, attacked once again.
“Bang!”
Chen Fan hit the ground heavily, his feet stomping deep footprints into the ground!
At this moment,from the Beastmaster’s Space, the Blind Man’s voice rang out, “Xiaofan, I’m afraid that a restriction array has been laid down here and you can’t fly!”
Unable to fly?
Chen Fan frowned before directly triggering “Lightning Speed” to reach the palace atop the mountain ahead.
“Zi!”
Having activated the second level of his Void Divine Body, Chen Fan sped off at a pace far surpassing the Phantom Demons, shooting out far away in the blink of an eye, after triggering Lightning Speed.
…
Almost at the same time.
In the 5th Restricted Area…
Under the guidance of the strongmen from the Sky Demon Sect, the strongmen of various powers found the weakest point of the barrier. They set up an Array there, intending to shake the barrier with the array.
But it still didn’t work…
“Let’s wait a little longer.”
The short-haired woman of the Sky Demon Sect said, “It will be eleven o’clock in the evening soon. At eleven o’clock, this point of the barrier will be hit by a strange force bursting outwards.”
“At that time, that will be the weakest point of this barrier.”
“Then, with all of us working together, there is hope that we can tear a little hole in the barrier at this point.”
The surrounding people all nodded in agreement.
Although they had joined forces, Nightmare Hall, Tang Country, Star Nation, Yang Nation, Sky Demon sect, Demon Race… various forces, were still clearly divided in faction.
A quarter of an hour later…
In front of everyone, the barrier suddenly flashed with light.
“It’s time!”
The group of powerful individuals began to get excited.
The uncle wearing a bamboo hat from Tang Country said solemnly, “Everyone act together, using the power of the previously arranged Array to tear a hole in the barrier!”
“Hold on!” From Nightmare Hall’s side, the curly-haired man in a black robe said, “After tearing a hole in the barrier, who should we send over first?”
The short-haired woman from Sky Demon Sect smiled, “I respect your opinion, whoever you say we send, we send.”
The curly-haired man in a black robe, “…”
He originally suspected that they were in secret cahoots with the people of Tang Country and Sky Demon Sect, but the woman’s words left him speechless.
Who should they send?
Should they send their own people first?
What if it’s extremely dangerous inside? Wouldn’t the first person to go in be treated like a guinea pig?
But if they let the people from Tang Country go first, what if they snatch away the Five-colored Divine Stone first? What then?
“Ah…”
The short-haired woman from Sky Demon Sect shook her head: “You guys from Nightmare Hall are a bunch of cowards. Even when given a chance, you’re just useless!”
“You…” The faces of the strongmen from Nightmare Hall turned dark.
Then, the curly-haired man in a black robe said, “First, let’s catch a demonically-transformed monster and throw it in after we tear the barrier, to see what happens!”
Before anyone else could respond, the curly-haired man gestured.
One of the strongmen from Nightmare Hall quickly moved out to catch a demonically-transformed Triangular Rabbit.
“Let’s do this!”
The short-haired woman from Sky Demon Sect just glanced at the transformed Triangular Rabbit and waved her hand.
Strongmen from all sides spread out, taking their pre-assigned positions in the Array.
“Begin!”
With a loud roar from the hat-wearing old man from Tang Country…
The Array activated—two huge hands formed from a mighty surge of Star Power directly grabbed the weakest part of the barrier!
At this moment, within the barrier, an unknown force was also striking the barrier!
Under a “pincer attack”, the two huge hands tore a small hole the size of a soccer ball right through the barrier!
“Huh!”
The curly-haired man in a black robe threw the Triangular Rabbit he was holding into it.
There was no reaction…
After the Triangular Rabbit was thrown in, it rolled around on the ground twice and then ran off.
“Let our people go first!”
The curly-haired man in a black robe shouted.
None of the people from other powers made a sound.
If the Nightmare Hall’s people could enter smoothly, they could follow them immediately.
Being a few seconds ahead didn’t matter much.
Seeing that no one objected, the curly-haired man in a black robe immediately waved his hand.
Behind him, a man with a goatee and wearing a black robe transformed into a streak of light and drilled into the fissure in the barrier.
“Boom!”
Quick to go in, even faster to come out!
The goatee man, who had transformed into a streak of light, screamed and was blasted out like a ball!
“Thump, thump, thump, thump!”
The goatee man’s black robe was shattered, and he kept rolling on the ground!
If it wasn’t for the other people who were also at the Seventh Rank Peak with quick reactions, he might have collided with them!
“What happened!”
The curly-haired man in a black robe reached out his hand, his mental power grasped the goatee man and pulled him over.
The goatee man was covered in horrifying wounds!
At first glance, it looked as though he had been cut thousands of times…
He had just flown in as a streak of light, how was it that he was slashed thousands of times in an instant?
The curly-haired man in a black robe shook the goatee man violently, saying, “Speak up, what happened!”
The goatee man weakly said: “I…don’t know.”
“As soon as I…went in, I was enveloped by an irresistible force…and then, I was repelled.”
“There must be…a restriction array inside the barrier.”
“A Seventh Grade Fifth Layer Heaven…can’t…enter at all!”
“Also…also…”
“When…when I was blasted…out…it seemed… I saw someone…running wildly inside.”
“That person was…surrounded…by…lightning…”
After saying this, the goatee man’s head tilted, and he fainted.
“…”
The people from all the powers present were shocked.
People at the Seventh Stage can’t go in?
There’s someone inside?!
The curly-haired man in a black robe coldly looked at the short-haired woman from the Sky Demon Sect and asked, “Is the person insider one of your people?”
The short-haired woman was stunned for a moment, then laughed sarcastically: “Are you stupid or something? You’re not unaware of the power of this barrier… it took so many of us working together to create a small tear.”
“You think we Sky Demon Sect can break it open on our own?”
“If we could, why would we need you useless people?”
The curly-haired man in a black robe gritted his teeth, withdrew his gaze, and said in a deep voice, “Let’s try again…a 13-level Triangular Rabbit can get in, but a person at Seventh Rank Peak can’t.”
“Once we find this tipping point, let’s see what the highest cultivation realm that can go through is!”
