"All hail the Sect Leader!!"
Behind Chu Kuangren, Shang Qingxue could not help but cheer excitedly. Her eyes were filled with admiration.
"Let's go!"
Wang Tianteng and the others planned to leave.
However, an inexplicable chill suddenly enveloped him, causing him to shudder.
"The others may leave, but the one who attacked my Black Heaven Sect's disciple cannot leave."
As soon as Chu Kuangren finished speaking, Wang Tianteng instantly turned into a stream of light and dashed away.
He wanted to escape.
However, Chu Kuangren gently lifted his hand and an invisible wave of mind power spread out.
No matter how fast Wang Tianteng was, how could he be faster than Chu Kuangren's mind power?
In an instant, Wang Tianteng's body was frozen in mid-air. No matter how much he channeled his spiritual power, he could not break free.
It was as if an invisible giant hand was squeezing him tightly.
"Stop! He's a sky-pride of the Wang family, and the Wang family is an ancient orthodoxy. If you dare to kill him …"
As a subsidiary force of the Wang family, the Gu family's Boundary Emperor could no longer sit still and shouted.
Boom!
Wang Tianteng's body exploded into a bloody mist in the air.
Chu Kuangren tilted his head and looked at the Gu family's Boundary Emperor. "What do you mean if I kill him?"
"You …"
The Gu family's Boundary Emperor looked at Chu Kuangren, so angry that he could not even form a complete sentence.
"You what? You can't even speak properly, how can you call yourself a Boundary Emperor? "
Chu Kuangren sneered and looked at the Spider Princess and Sima Ren.
When they saw him staring at them, their faces turned pale and they quickly hid behind their Boundary Emperors.
It was obvious that they were scared out of their wits by Chu Kuangren.
"Fellow Daoist, the Snow Spider Clan is willing to pay a hundred and fifty kilograms of Spiritual Source. Please spare the Spider Princess."
"The same goes for the Sima family."
Spiritual Source was a spiritual qi crystallization that was a grade higher than soulstones and spiritual marrows.
A kilogram of Spiritual Source was equivalent to a hundred million Top-tier soulstones.
Boom, boom!
However, as soon as the two Boundary Emperors finished speaking, runic swords suddenly appeared beside the Spider Princess and Sima Ren.
In the blink of an eye, the runic swords shot out and engulfed the Spider Princess and Sima Ren in violent runic energy.
"Spider Princess!"
"Sima Ren!!"
When the quasi-Emperors of the Sima Clan from the Snow Spider lineage saw this, their expressions could not help changing drastically.
Top-notch geniuses were the most precious resources for any orthodoxy, but now, the geniuses of several orthodoxies had successively fallen here.
The hearts of the Quasi-emperors were bleeding.
They glared at Chu Kuangren. If looks could kill, they would have already sliced Chu Kuangren into a thousand pieces.
"Let's go!"
The few Quasi-emperors gritted their teeth, turned around, and left with the remaining people.
They did not dare to tangle with Chu Kuangren any longer. Otherwise, who knew how many more sky-prides would die.
It was especially so for the Snow Spider lineage. They had already lost a Sub-Emperor and an elite. They could not afford to suffer any more losses.
"Human, just you wait! I won't let this matter rest!!"
The few Quasi-emperors who left cursed inwardly.
…
When most of the people had left, Chu Kuangren looked at Shang Qingxue who was in the snow lotus and activated his Eye of Revelation.
"Frost Daoist Physique upgrading, progress: 94% …"
"Alright, tell me how you got here," Chu Kuangren asked.
"I'm not too sure myself. After I entered the Emperor's Path, I was teleported to a space beneath the Heavenly Lake by a surge of spatial energy. Not long after I finished communicating with the Sect Leader, I fainted, and when I woke up, I was already on top of the Icy Heart Lotus …" Shang Qingxue explained.
After Chu Kuangren heard that, he clicked his tongue in wonder. "Looks like you're quite lucky to have been transported into the Heavenly Lake and coincidentally met with the appearance of the Icy Heart Lotus. Your physique is very compatible with the Icy Heart Lotus's attributes, and it actually managed to make it recognize you as its master, thus obtaining this opportunity."
He had heard some rumors about the Icy Heart Lotus.
If it was someone else who had obtained this rare treasure, he might have tried to snatch it from them. However, since it was Shang Qingxue's, he would only be happy for her.
After all, they were family.
There was still some time before the Icy Heart Lotus fused with Shang Qingxue and the Frost Daoist Physique upgrade, so Chu Kuangren did not mind waiting a little longer.
… …
After the Snow Spider and Snow Lion lineages had retreated, the barrier disappeared as well.
The Heaven Lake was once again exposed to the eyes of countless people.
Many people ran into the Heaven Lake in an attempt to fight for the opportunity.
Heavenly Pond energy, Heavenly Pond Ice Crystals …
For most cultivators, these were very useful treasures.
However, they all knew that the real opportunity lay in the Heaven Lake.
"This time, Tian Chi Mountain's unusual movements must be because of the changes in Tian Chi. That is where the real fortune lies."
"Only, I don't know why those great orthodoxies suddenly left. Could it be that they already obtained the fortune of the celestial pond?"
"Let's go and try our luck."
Some people came to the Heaven Lake with the idea of trying their luck and seeing if they could get lucky.
As soon as they arrived at the Heaven Lake, they saw the huge Ice Heart Snow Lotus.
However, at this time, the petals of the snow lotus were closed, like a flower bud that had yet to bloom.
"Ice Heart Snow Lotus!"
"Who would have thought that the Ice Heart Snow Lotus would actually appear here. But why? How many orthodoxies didn't take it away? "
"I don't care. The treasure is right in front of me. It would be a waste not to take it."
Everyone was ecstatic as they rushed toward Xue Lian.
However, at this moment, a sharp sword qi slashed across the snow-covered ground, leaving a huge sword mark on the ground.
A Sage who was closest to the sword mark was so shocked that he broke out in cold sweat.
Just now, if he had been a step faster, that Sword Qi would have been enough to tear him into two halves!
"Anyone who crosses the sword mark shall die!"
An indifferent voice came from not far away.
Everyone looked at a large rock by the shore of the Heaven Lake. They saw a white-robed young man sitting on the edge of the lake with his back facing the crowd. His jet-black hair fluttered in the wind, giving off an otherworldly vibe.
"What a farce."
One of the Sages glanced at the Ice Heart Snow Lotus in the Heaven Lake and could not hold back his desire for it. He snorted and lifted his leg to cross the sword mark.
However, when his right leg crossed the sword mark, a sword qi suddenly burst out from the sword mark before his left leg could even move.
With a loud tearing sound, that sword qi tore the person who crossed the line in half right in front of everyone.
"There will always be idiots who want to test the limits. Don't tell me you guys are as stupid as him?"
Chu Kuangren's voice once again entered everyone's ears.
At this moment, no one doubted his words anymore.
Everyone looked at the sword mark on the ground as if they were looking at a line between life and death. They quickly took a few steps back, not daring to cross it.
"This young man seems to be the one who trespassed into the Heaven Lake. It seems that it's because of him that the ancient orthodoxies did not take the Ice Heart Snow Lotus away."
"That should be the case. But who exactly is this person? How can he force the ancient orthodoxies to retreat?"
Everyone looked at the back of the figure who was sitting by the lake with respect and fear in their eyes.
A person who could force the ancient orthodoxies to retreat was definitely not someone they could fight against.
At that moment, the snow lotus in the Heaven Lake suddenly swayed, and then its twelve petals slowly opened.
