The scene looked very frightening. However, that Lu Weiping did not move at all. He infused his Heavenly Sage Laws into his hand, and a clump of black light immediately came out from the root he held.
The clump of black light instantly entered the tree. With a loud 'bang,' this terrifying, strange plant exploded into wood shavings filling the air.
The expressions of the others changed slightly. Although they did not care about this Fiendish Snake Tree, it would be very difficult for them to destroy it as casually as Lu Weiping did.
They did not know if Lu Weiping did this to show off his might or if he was really in a rush.
The middle-aged man and the others all showed uncertain expressions. Who knew what they were thinking?
Along the way, Lu Weiping swept through everything in his path. The entire group did not slow down at all. The group moved very quickly. In the blink of an eye, they had traveled more than ten kilometers into the Demonic Garden.
Three days later, Lu Weiping led the group to a towering tree. He looked at the old man from the Heavenly Mystery Gate and said, "Brother Liu, I'll leave this restriction to you."
Could it be that the Evil King's final resting place is in this towering tree? Xiao Chen entered deep thought. When Xiao Chen looked carefully, he discovered that there were three layers of barriers around the towering tree.
The old man with the family name Liu from the Heavenly Mystery Gate glanced at them. He did not show much of a grave expression. He had already broken this restriction once. Breaking it again would be even easier.
The old man took out a stack of small flags. Then, his figure flashed as he surrounded the towering tree and stabbed them into it.
Xiao Chen watched without blinking. He was rather interested in the formations of the Kunlun Realm.
After setting up everything, the old man with the family name Liu hovered in the air. He formed hand seals and sent out beams of light into his formation flags.
After a while, a large formation flickered with light and descended from the sky. Then, it clashed intensely with the three layers of restrictions around the towering tree.
Under the pressure of the old man's formation, the formless barrier started to crack bit by bit. Then, it shattered like a mirror.
The people waiting anxiously heaved a sigh of relief. Elder Peng smiled and said, "Brother Liu's understanding of formations is probably the best in the Kunlun Realm after Emperor Wu."
The old man with the family name Liu put away the formation flags like they were treasures. He did not show much pride on his face. "This really has nothing to do with me. If I had not coincidentally obtained a set of Universe Flags, I really would not have been able to break the restriction that the Evil King left behind."
Lu Weiping ignored their compliments and walked straight in. With a wave of his hand, a token shot into one of the grooves on the middle-aged man's body.
With a cracking sound, the towering tree strangely split into two, revealing a path.
Whoosh!
With a flash, Lu Weiping flew in first. Elder Peng and the old man with the family name Liu hurriedly followed.
Lu Weiping seemed to have obtained something this time, an incredible Secret Treasure. He was very confident of clearing the stage of the Nascent Flame. He forcefully destroyed all the traps along the way, leaving the rest far behind.
As Elder Peng and the others chased after Lu Weiping, they saw the broken pieces of the traps on the ground. They exchanged glances.
"It looks like this Lu Weiping only wants to use Brother Liu to break the restriction outside. He is very confident of clearing the Nascent Flame and is planning to monopolize it."
The stout man smiled coldly when he saw that Lu Weiping was no longer in sight.
The pretty middle-aged woman also showed some displeasure on her face. She said, "Previously, we met with strong demonic beasts along the way. We all contributed. Otherwise, how could this trip be so easy?"
The Heavenly Mystery Gate's cultivator with the family name Liu glanced at Elder Peng and said, "Elder Peng, you have the best relationship with this Lu Weiping. You can be considered half a promoter. Can you explain what is going on?"
After breaking the restriction, Lu Weiping moved quickly, no longer showing any intention of traveling with the others. Clearly, some of the agreements were no longer effective.
The other three looked at Elder Peng, wanting to demand an explanation from him. If there was no reasonable explanation, they might attack immediately.
The atmosphere in the underground tunnel immediately turned somewhat tense. The five peak Martial Sages released their auras indistinctly.
Elder Peng's expression turned sullen. He said, "He found a letter personally written by the Evil King. He probably can clear the Nascent Flame. Furthermore, he is certain that we will not be able to clear it. That's why he is so confident.
"However, we should wait until we reach the Nascent Flame first. What can the few of you change with your attitude towards me? You had best not do anything stupid. This old man has not made a move for many years. My hands are indeed itching. "
When Xiao Chen, who was not far away, saw this scene, he revealed a playful smile. Before reaching the Nascent Flame, the group showed signs of splitting up. This was beyond his expectations.
This was good as well. Since they were not united, it would be easier for Xiao Chen to execute some of his plans.
No matter what, Xiao Chen had to figure out the secret of the seven thrones. He had to figure out whether the seven thrones could merge or not. After merging, would there be the state of cycle?
Chu Chaoyun's understanding of the state of primal chaos was ahead of Xiao Chen's. Xiao Chen had to figure out the state of cycle. This was an excellent opportunity.
Lu Weiping had already disappeared. The situation had clearly turned somewhat strange. The group increased their speed and flew quickly through the underground tunnel.
Xiao Chen did not execute Thunder Dragon Steps. He only used the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art and easily followed behind the group. The distance between them never widened.
After about fifteen minutes, Elder Peng stopped in front of a cave. He had a sullen expression, and his eyes looked very frightening.
A clump of white flame burned fiercely at the entrance of the cave, blocking the entire entrance. When the group looked around, they did not see Lu Weiping.
The expressions of the others were extremely unsightly. This time, Lu Weiping really intended to shake them off.
The skinny old man who had remained silent all this time revealed an ambiguous smile and said, "This Lu Weiping really thinks that we won't be able to pass the trial of the Nascent Flame. Old friends, you should all be prepared this time, right?"
The eyes of the Heavenly Mystery Gate's old man flickered. Even with his proud character, he became cautious when facing this mysterious Nascent Flame.
Elder Peng's expression turned uncertain. He glanced at Xiao Chen, who was behind him, and then muttered to himself.
"I'll do it. My Flame Parting Robe is a high-quality Sage Grade Secret Treasure, after all. I don't believe that a clump of flame can block me."
The stout man took out a black cloak and wore it. When he activated it, the cloak glowed with a cold light, forming a white light barrier.
The others looked over. Since someone was willing to test it out, naturally, they were happy to watch.
"Whoosh!" The stout man flashed into the cave entrance. When he was just one step away from the large clump of Nascent Flame, he stopped. It looked like while he spoke casually, he was not very confident in his heart.
The stout man did not make everyone wait for long. In the end, he took a step forward and walked in.
The Heavenly Mystery Gate's old man narrowed his eyes and looked carefully, not daring to relax for even a moment. Elder Peng and the others did the same, feeling extremely nervous.
Xiao Chen crossed his arms and stared at the Nascent Flame. However, his state of mind was as calm as still water, without any fluctuations.
"Ah!"
The surroundings turned quiet. Just as everyone was extremely nervous, not even daring to breathe loudly, a miserable cry came from the Nascent Flame.
A fiery light flashed, and the stout man, who had just stepped in, retreated in an extremely sorry state. His black cloak was nowhere to be seen.
Most of the stout man's clothes were burned, and a large patch of his hair was charred yellow. Many burn marks were visible on his skin.
"This Feng is incompetent. This Nascent Flame will have to depend on my old friends."
The burly man revealed an expression of lingering fear in his eyes. His earlier confidence was gone, and he walked over while cursing and cursing.
The others remained silent. After a long time, the pretty middle-aged woman walked out. She took out a pearl and placed it in her mouth. Then, she silently walked into the clump of flame.
There was no need to wait for long. After a while, the pretty middle-aged woman came out. She took out a pearl and placed it in her mouth. Then, she silently walked into the clump of flame. However, with the example of the stout man, this woman immediately retreated when she saw that something was wrong. Aside from her pale complexion, she did not suffer any injuries.
Following that, Elder Peng and the skinny old man took out their fire-resistant Secret Treasures and tested them. In the end, they failed and even nearly drew the flames to themselves.
The Heavenly Mystery Gate's old man smiled faintly and said, "It looks like it does not matter whether this old man tries or not. Even if I manage to get through by luck, I will not be a match for that old fogey Lu."
"I am really not resigned to this. The place where the Evil King died has at least four or five King Grade Secret Treasures. Getting one is already worth it. After we get out, if this old man does not seek trouble with the Heavenly Evil Gate, my surname is no longer Feng. "
The stout man cursed and appeared extremely upset.
The group gathered together and discussed how to get Lu Weiping to spit out something after they got out.
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up like torches as he took in everyone's expressions. He discovered that everyone, including Elder Peng, was extremely furious.
Only the Heavenly Mystery Gate's old man with the family name Liu showed a furious expression. However, his eyes clearly did not care much.
Logically speaking, the Heavenly Mystery Gate's old man should have suffered the most. Without him breaking the restriction outside, even Lu Weiping would not have been able to enter.
However, Xiao Chen did not care what this person thought. His figure flashed, and he arrived before the hole. Then, he observed the clump of Nascent Flame at a close distance.
When Elder Peng saw this scene, his eyes lit up. The group's successive failures nearly made him forget about their secret weapon, Xiao Chen. He smiled and said, "Everyone, perhaps you are not that pessimistic. The Martial Technique that this disciple of my sect practices is very effective against all sorts of flames."
The stout man snorted coldly and said unconcernedly, "Just him? He is just a junior who is not even a Martial Sage. Old Man Peng, I think you are getting muddle-headed with age.
"Right now, we can only wait here for Lu Weiping to come out. If he leaves from another exit, we will go to the Heavenly Evil Gate together to put pressure on him. I don't believe that he will not spit out what we deserve. "
The others approved of this plan as well. With the five of them working together, they would definitely be able to suppress Lu Weiping. They would not be afraid of him falling out with them.
