Qin Yi, who was hiding in the dark, was astonished when he saw the island rising from the magma lake and the palace emerging.
He had not expected such a huge palace to be hidden in the magma. Moreover, it was so well-preserved that it was not corroded by the magma at all.
What kind of terrifying protection was this to prevent the magma from corroding a single inch of the palace?
The members of the Green Lotus Society and the geniuses of the seven nations stopped at the shore in astonishment when they saw this. Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! The six vortexes swept up six huge waves of magma. Beams of white light suddenly emerged from the waves and shot toward the shore.
This speed was so fast that it was comparable to lightning, and it caught everyone off guard.
In the next moment, the beams of white light were already before them. They were actually chains as thick as an arm. The chains wrapped around their waists. Each chain could carry three to five people, and the smallest was two to three people. A large number of people were swept away.
The six chains were like six tentacles, wrapping around a dozen people and swaying in the air.
Among the dozen people, there were cultivators from the seven nations and members of the Green Lotus Society. They were scared out of their wits and screamed as they were swept up in the air by the chains.
If the chains loosened even a little, their bodies would fall into the boiling magma without any resistance.
Everyone had seen the consequences of falling into the magma with their own eyes.
"Saintess, save me!"
"Senior Sister, save me!"
Cries of pain and despair rang out from the top of the chain.
Xia Ji was clearly caught off guard by the series of changes.
However, her eyes were still fixed on the central island and the mysterious palace. She turned a deaf ear to the cries for help from her companions and captives.
"Saintess, what do we do?" A member of the Green Lotus Society asked softly.
"Bring these captives and leave the underground palace!"
"What about you, Saintess?"
"Go!" Xia Ji did not want to waste her breath. Suddenly, she leaped high into the air and twisted her body. Long vines grew out of nowhere and swept toward the chains in the air from all directions.
In the span of a breath, the hundreds of vines had already formed a giant net under the chain.
Xia Ji gritted her teeth and used a few thicker vines to smash against the six chains in an attempt to save the people on the chains.
When the rattan collided with the chain, the white color of the chain suddenly changed and became incomparably red.
The rattan had just come into contact with the white chain when it was engulfed by the terrifying heat wave, and the entire rattan was suddenly set ablaze.
It was at this moment that the six chains seemed to have a mind of their own. With just a shake, the creatures on the chains began to fly toward the core island one by one. They fell down like dumplings.
Falling on the core island was much better than falling directly into the magma.
Xia Ji did not feel dejected when she saw that her attack had failed. His body soared into the air, stepping on the countless vines suspended in the air. His body was as light as a feather as he glided through the air and shot towards the core island.
Her figure was extremely agile. Coupled with her graceful figure, there was a dreamy beauty to her movements.
The geniuses of the seven nations were all dumbfounded. For a moment, even though they were all true disciples and the top geniuses of the seven nations, they could not help but feel a sense of inferiority.
In such a terrifying environment, all they could think of was to escape for their lives. But this young lady, who was about the same age as the new disciples of their sects, knew that a tiger was lurking in the mountains, yet she still chose to go there.
Whether it was her courage or her methods, they were all ashamed of themselves.
"The appearance of the secret realm must mean that a treasure is about to appear."
Although the geniuses of the seven nations had taken the Lotus Heart Unfettered Pill, they had just escaped danger, and their greed was born again.
Some even thought to themselves, Since I've already taken the poison of these demons, I'll die anyway. I might as well try my luck at the palace. Even if I can't get the treasure, it'll be good if I can subdue the leader of the demons and force them to hand over the antidote.
With this thought in mind, the geniuses did not call out to their companions at all. They all glided up and shot towards the opposite shore, ignoring the scolding and cursing of the Green Lotus Sect members.
With someone taking the lead, others followed suit.
The other geniuses of the seven nations also came to their senses and shot towards the opposite shore.
However, their luck was not as good as the previous batch. The six white chains stretched out once more and swept across the air.
Seven or eight geniuses of the seven nations were swept by the chains and fell towards the core island.
"Not good. They must be going to deal with the Saintess. Although the poison of the Unfettered Pill is strong, it won't take effect for a while. Let's go and protect the Saintess! "
The Dao foundation realm cultivators of the Green Lotus Sect also came to their senses.
However, they were much more cautious and did not choose to fly. Instead, they activated the Ice Heart Lotus and shot towards the core island through the magma lake.
Although their speed was not as fast as flying, this method allowed them to successfully avoid the attack of the white chains.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten Dao foundation realm cultivators of the Green Lotus Sect also followed them into the core island.
Qin Yi had been observing in the dark. His attention had always been on the mysterious palace.
Taking advantage of the chaos, he also activated his flight rune. Taking advantage of the moment when the big chain was attacking the others, he shot in and landed on the core island.
Qin Yi looked around and realized that the cultivators who had been attacked by the chains had landed on the island. None of them had died, but all of them were severely injured.
There were only about twenty cultivators who were unharmed. They were basically the elites from both sides.
On the side of the seven nations, there were a total of ten people who landed at the entrance of the palace unharmed.
Originally, they had planned to attack Xia Ji with all their might and take down the Saintess so that the other side would have no choice but to hand over the antidote for the Unfettered Pill.
However, as soon as they landed, the other Dao foundation realm cultivators from the other side also landed on the island and gathered with Xia Ji.
Xia Ji stared coldly at the people from the seven nations. "What? Are you planning to rebel after taking the Unfettered Pill? "
"Hehe, Saintess, please don't misunderstand. Since we have surrendered, we will naturally consider your safety. We are willing to protect the Saintess as she enters the secret realm of the palace."
"Saintess, please allow us to contribute our meager strength."
One had to admit that these fellows reacted quickly and were quite thick-skinned.
Xia Ji smiled coldly. "What a good protector. What meager strength."
Suddenly, Xia Ji's expression turned serious and she shouted, "If you don't want to die too badly, get out now. As a captive, you must have the awareness of being a captive! "
The geniuses from the seven nations looked at each other and then at the other side's camp. Their eyes flashed with ferocity and determination.
Now that the number of people on both sides was about the same, they could still fight.
