"Hmm?"
The armored general's expression changed slightly. He lifted his heavy greatsword and walked towards the pool of water.
"Hong Yan, you said that the Celestial Pool can only contain three people, right??"
"Yes, my lord."
The red-robed man quickly cupped his fists and said.
"The two women came out from the Celestial Pool. Then, what about the third person? Is he still at the bottom of the pool? "
"Most likely. But … why is this half of the pool still pitch-black??" The red-robed man moved closer carefully and sniffed. He frowned and said, "There's no devil qi? This pool doesn't seem to be contaminated by devil qi. It's said that Qi Jin was attacked by a devil. Logically speaking, the person at the bottom of the pool should be a devil. Why … is it like this? "
"Hmph, don't tell me you think that we can't even tell the difference between a devil and a human?"
The armored general harrumphed coldly.
"No, no, my lord, that's not what I meant. It's just …"
"Say no more. I can sense a small amount of Qi Jin's aura in the surroundings, but I can't find any trace of him. It's highly possible that Qi Jin is already dead, and it's the doing of the person at the bottom of the pool!! How can such a person not be a devil?? It doesn't matter whether he's a devil or not. What's important is that Qi Jin was killed by him. This alone is enough to kill him! "
After saying that, the armored general waved his hand and said, "Split into two groups. One group will attack the cocoon and drag out the two women. The other group will go into the pool and fish them out. These three people must be brought back to the Immortal Court and await the punishment of the lords of the Immortal Court."
"Yes, my lord!"
The surrounding experts of the Immortal Court responded and quickly split into two groups. One group continued to attack the cocoon fiercely, while the other group went straight to the Celestial Pool.
Seeing that, the red-robed man opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
One of them cast a spell in advance. He accumulated a blazing flame in his palm and smashed it towards the pitch-black pool, intending to melt the pool.
But …
The flames seemed to be incomparably hot and terrifying, but when they smashed into the pool water, they instantly dissipated, no longer showing any heat.
Seeing this, the others immediately joined hands and released more flames. A fireball that was even hotter and more terrifying than the previous one appeared. With everyone's combined strength, it smashed towards the Celestial Pond.
* Chi … *
An ear-piercing noise rang out.
The pitch-black celestial pond water was still bubbling, but it didn't drop at all. There weren't any ripples either. It was as if it wasn't flames that fell, but sand that fell into the pond …
Whether it was fire, earth, or even other bizarre spells bombarding the pool, the pool still didn't change.
"Are you all idiots? What kind of Immortal Technique is he using? I want you to go down and fish him out!! "
The Armored General's face turned ugly as he shouted at the top of his lungs.
When the experts of the Immortal Court heard this, they looked at each other and didn't dare to go down.
"What are you waiting for? Don't tell me you want me to personally go into the water? "
The armored general flew into a rage and roared furiously.
Seeing this, the red-robed man hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Calm down, my lord. There's a reason why they don't dare to go down. It's said that the celestial pond can only accommodate three people. If more people enter, they'll suffer the backlash of the celestial pond … "
"There's only one person in the pond now. What are you afraid of??"
"But …"
"Stop nagging!! At most, we'll just send two people down!! "
The armored general was completely impatient. He pointed at the two experts of the Immortal Court and said, "You! And you, go down!! Hurry!! "
"Yes, general!"
The two experts of the Immortal Court didn't dare to disobey, and immediately jumped into the pond.
Plop.
The bubbling pitch-black pond water splashed, and the two of them dived into it.
But …
As soon as the two of them landed, the water in the pool immediately churned and a large number of ripples spread out. But not long after, the ripples calmed down and the water in the pool bubbled again. Then … there was no other movement.
Everything was as it had been in the beginning …
Seeing this, everyone on the shore widened their eyes as they stared at this strange scene in astonishment.
"Chen Sheng, Wu Xin!! Can you hear me?? "
An expert of the Immortal Court shouted towards the pond with immortal qi.
But … after shouting a few times, he didn't hear any reply from the two who dived into the pond.
"This …"
Everyone on the shore sensed the possibility of the two, and their expressions changed.
The people in the pond should still be enduring the changes of the celestial pond water. Usually, if they really dived into the pond, they would be fished out immediately. But the pond water was so strange, and that person might have already completed his transformation, or set up some tricks. If the two who dived into the pond didn't move, they must have encountered something unexpected.
"I'm afraid … they're in trouble!!" The red-robed man said solemnly.
No one said a word.
The armored general was getting angrier. He gritted his teeth, and his eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger. He roared, "Bastard!! Bastard!! So many people, can't you even take down a little devil? "Bastard!"
With that, he took a few steps forward and stared at the pitch black pond water. His hands quickly formed a seal, and a mysterious immortal qi floated between his palms. Very quickly, the immortal qi started to condense into a gigantic white immortal sword, which quickly spiraled between his palms. With a loud shout, the immortal sword directly slashed towards the pond water.
BOOM!
In an instant, the water in the pool exploded. It was directly split into two by this mystical immortal sword. The water split to the left and right as if someone had forcefully pushed it apart. The person in the pool appeared in front of everyone.
It was a man draped in a pitch-black cloak. The man's face was abnormally pale, and the cloak on his body seemed extremely thin, as if it would tear at any moment. Apart from the cloak, there was nothing else on him. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the pond with his eyes closed, as if he was meditating. It was unknown if he was aware of what was happening outside.
"It's this person!"
The armored general opened his eyes wide and stared at Su Yun, who was below him, and shouted: "Go! All of you, attack! Capture this person! Hurry up and capture this person! "
Seeing that the armored general actually had the ability, the morale of the immortals on the shore was greatly boosted. After hearing the order, they all jumped into the pond in unison.
Whoosh.
A large number of immortals rushed into the pond and directly attacked Su Yun. Several iron chains also followed, and from the looks of it, they wanted to tie Su Yun up.
However …
After the dozens of immortals rushed into the pool, the pitch-black water that had been split apart quickly merged back together. Not only that, a large amount of water that was like a demon's claw appeared in the pond water, directly grabbing onto the immortals that were extremely close and directly dragging them in.
Plop plop plop plop
These people from the Immortal Court had no time to defend themselves and were directly dragged in.
"What's going on?"
"Help! Save me! "
"Ah!" What is this? What is this? Let me go! Let me go! "
"Save … Save me!"
These people continued to struggle in the immortal pond, their mouths letting out heart-wrenching screams. However, their screams did not last for long. One by one, they were dragged into the pond, and then they could no longer be seen. The pond water churned for a while, but very quickly, it returned to normal. Not long after, a large number of bubbles appeared on the surface of the pond, but not a single person could be seen.
This time …
Even the armored general did not say a word. His eyes were wide open as he stared blankly at the pitch-black surface of the pond, unable to say a word for a long time …
The Immortal Pond was extremely quiet.
No one had ever seen such a strange scene before. The people from the Immortal Court who had entered the pond were all experts at the fifth stage of the Spirit Profound Immortal Realm and above! Even Spirit God! Shouldn't it be so easy to kill so many experts at the fifth stage of the Spirit Profound Immortal Realm and above? What was going on? This guy shouldn't have completed the transformation of the Immortal Pond yet. Why would such a phenomenon occur?
Everyone felt that their breaths were about to tighten.
The red robed man was probably the first to react. He hurriedly walked in front of the armored general and said in a low voice, "Master, this person is not ordinary. I'm afraid we can't deal with him. It's better to leave quickly and set up a defense outside. Also, inform the masters above and ask them to send more experts over to help!"
"Help?"
Hearing that, the armored general gritted his teeth and said angrily, "In order to obtain this opportunity to render meritorious service, I specially asked the masters for permission and brought all of my subordinates out, but in exchange, this is the result? How can I be willing? "
"But things have indeed exceeded our imagination. If we continue to be entangled like this, who knows what kind of accident will happen? We are already at our wit's end. "The red robed man said helplessly.
"It's just a Devil Cultivator! What do you mean by there's nothing we can do? "The armored general gritted his teeth, obviously not wanting to give up.
"Master!"
"There's no need to say anymore! If you're afraid, then you can leave first! "
"This …"
Gulu Gulu Gulu Gulu
Right at this moment, the bubbling pitch-black water suddenly emitted a series of strange sounds.
The two of them looked in the direction of the sound, only to see that the pitch-black water was slowly descending, as if it was being drawn out by someone.
Seeing this scene, all the surrounding immortals pointed their blades at the Immortal Pond.
The armored general also gripped his thick sword tightly, as if he was facing a great enemy.
The water in the pool dropped lower and lower, becoming less and less, and finally completely dissipated, completely absorbed by the person sitting at the bottom of the pool.
When the last drop of water was absorbed by that person, the person sitting cross-legged also moved.
He opened his eyes and looked at the countless people from the Immortal Court standing beside the Immortal Pond. His dry mouth revealed a sinister smile …
