Time gradually passed. After the period it took eight incense sticks to burn, Martial Monarch Ling Yue finally came to a stop and landed on the ground.
"It's deep inside the lake."
Ling Yue withdrew his aura and said with a stern look.
"Mm?"
Qin Nan raised his head and raised his eyebrows with a glimpse.
In front of them was a lake with a circumference of over a thousand li. For some reason, translucent snowflakes the size of a palm were floating on the surface of the lake. It was an extraordinarily beautiful sight.
However, in the depths of such a lake, there were frightening monstrous beasts sleeping one after another. There was a total of forty-eight of them.
In addition to that, Qin Nan sharply discovered that the forty-eight beasts had formed a magical formation with his left eye. If anyone were to trespass into the lake, not only would the beasts be awakened, the formation would be activated too.
When that happened, even a fifth-layer Martial Monarch would struggle to protect themselves.
"Wait here, I'll go take a look."
Qin Nan said. His eyes emitted a blue glow as he prepared to enter the lake.
"Mm, sorry to trouble senior."
Ling Yue did not reject the offer.
He had chosen to cooperate with Qin Nan because of his eye-technique.
With such a powerful eye-technique, it would not be a problem for him to break the Beast Slaughtering Formation at the bottom of the lake.
"Hold it right there."
Suddenly, a loud roar could be heard coming from the distance.
Qin Nan and Ling Yue frowned and turned around.
Five figures with powerful auras could be seen in the horizon. Torrential gales swept up by them as they hurried over at an astonishing speed.
The five cultivators were named Fei Hong, Fei Ang, Shi Shuo, Shi Qian, and Shi Kun. Their cultivations were not weak either. Among them, Fei Ang, Shi Qian, and Shi Kun were all fifth-layer Martial Monarchs, while Fei Hong and Shi Shuo were third-layer Martial Monarchs.
In the blink of an eye, the five cultivators landed beside the lake.
"Senior, I don't know these five people, but I can swear an oath to the heavens. These five people must have bought the map from Old Man Taia or snatched it from someone else … "
Ling Yue was afraid that Qin Nan would misunderstand. He immediately transmitted his voice to explain.
"The two of you, I'll give you three breaths to leave this place. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."
To everyone's surprise, among the five cultivators, two third-layer Martial Monarchs, Fei Hong and Shion, stepped forward and spoke. Their voices were cold, with an imperious aura that no one could reject.
Even though they couldn't see each other's expressions, faces, and so on, they could feel the arrogance in their bones from these words.
"Senior, let's leave at once. This Fei Hong and Shion are most likely extraordinary people from the Eight Ancient Tribes, the Six Forbidden Grounds, and the Three Great Factions. Otherwise, they wouldn't be accompanied by three fifth-layer Martial Monarchs."
Ling Yue was startled. He quickly transmitted his voice.
Everyone knew that in the Abstruse God Space, the Three Great Factions, the Six Great Forbidden Grounds, the Eight Great Ancient Tribes, and other factions would send their experts to assist their talented Martial Monarchs with great potential to acquire more Abstruse God Pieces.
This was obviously the case for Fei Hong and Shion.
"Why should we leave? There are treasures here. Whoever wants them will have to rely on their own capabilities. "
Qin Nan calmly spoke as if he did not hear Ling Yue's words. He turned around and stepped into the lake.
"Senior, you..."
Ling Yue was stunned.
The reason being that he never thought Qin Nan would say such a thing.
In terms of strength, their side was obviously weaker than Qin Nan's, not to mention his formidable background.
"Mm?"
Fei Hong, Shion, and the others were startled.
It was obvious that they did not expect a mere first-layer Martial Monarch Realm cultivator to ignore their presence.
"Idiot."
Fei Hong and Shion soon collected their thoughts. Seeing Qin Nan stepping into the lake, their lips curled upward into a cold grin. They were too lazy to make a move.
Everyone knew that the Beast Slaughtering Formation was located at the bottom of the lake. Once it was activated, even a fifth-layer Martial Monarch would not be able to stop it.
As such, they had failed to retrieve the treasure from the lake last time. They had no choice but to find three experts from their tribes to help them.
However, the eyes of Fei Hong, Shi Ang, and the others soon flickered with astonishment.
They could only see Qin Nan moving forward on the surface of the lake as if he were walking on flat ground. The beasts residing in the lake seemed to be unaware of his presence.
I feel that I am still in deep sleep.
"He managed to see through the Beast Slaughtering Formation? Impressive eye-technique, no wonder he dares to enter it with a cultivation of the first-layer Martial Monarch Realm. "
"However, he dares to disregard our words just because he's a little capable?"
Fei Hong and Shi Ang regained their senses, and their expressions became a little gloomy.
Since when had they been disregarded by a mere first-layer Martial Monarch Realm authority with their identities and identities?
If they were in the half-God region, even the seventh-layer Martial Monarchs or eighth-layer Martial Monarchs would not dare to disregard them. Instead, they would treat them with great respect!
"Wake up!"
Fei Hong and Shion's eyes flickered as a thought crossed their mind. They blurted out at the same time.
This shout was like a clap of thunder in spring. It struck the surface of the lake and caused the floating snowflakes to shatter into pieces.
"Crap."
Ling Yue's expression changed tremendously.
He did not expect these people to be so vicious to do such a thing.
Qin Nan who was walking on the surface of the lake came to a stop too. His eyes flickered coldly.
Buzz!
At that instant, the calm surface of the lake began to tremble.
Several terrifying auras were awakened deep inside the lake.
ROAR!
Not long after, forty-eight terrifying beasts were fully awakened. They opened their bloody mouths and uttered deafening roars, shattering the surface of the lake.
Their bloodshot eyes glanced at Qin Nan with tremendous murderous intent.
"Bold human, you dare trespass on the Snow Fate Lake, die!"
Following a series of thunderous roars, the water of the lake began to boil as the forty-eight terrifying beasts executed their attacks. The invisible Beast Slaughtering Formation was activated too.
The surroundings were filled with a murderous aura.
"HAHAHA, I would like to see what you're going to do today."
When Fei Hong and Shi Ang saw this scene, they both burst into laughter at the same time. Their faces were filled with ridicule.
This was the consequence of disrespecting them and opposing them.
Now that the forty-eight terrifying beasts had all awakened, unless they had some powerful life-saving measures, they would surely die.
