They attacked.
The two sects took action, but Lu An and Yao did not. This was something that the two of them could have done under their rational state of mind.
As a matter of fact, ideally, they should try to communicate with these beasts to see if they could reach the castle without attacking. But in reality, it was impossible. The deep-sea races and humans were mortal enemies. They would definitely fight when they met. At least Lu An hadn't encountered any accidents so far. Even Dong Huashun and Ceng Ping who lived in the ocean all year round were the same.
Lu An was never out of touch with reality, and Yao had grown up.
In the first joint attack, the powerful secret method of the two factions killed all the seventh-rank beasts floating on the sea. Half of the eighth-rank beasts were killed. The other half were so badly injured that they almost lost the ability to fight back. As for the beasts in the sea, there were about 30 of them. About 10 of them were also badly injured, but they could still fight back. They attacked the people in the sky together.
However, the gap in strength was too obvious. The training that the Taoist masters received and the top level Fate Wheels were not something that ordinary Taoist masters of the same realm could compare with. In addition, the Fate Wheels of the two factions were related to water. They were like tigers that had grown wings when fighting in the sea. They were also fighting on the home ground with the beasts. The beasts couldn't gain any advantage.
The Misty Rain Sect mainly used swords. Countless Sword Qi merged with the water and formed a powerful sword formation. The sharp blades could even pierce through the beasts that were known for their defense. As for the Flower Moon Sect, they controlled the beasts in the deep sea. Countless flowers and water blades that were more than 10,000 feet long separated the beasts from each other. They couldn't cooperate with each other and their movements were restricted. All of them had to endure the range of attacks.
In just two breaths, the battle was completely over. The sea water surged back crazily, but there were also corpses and endless blood.
The battle ended so quickly that Lu An And Yao refreshed his understanding of the strength of the factions. He had to admit that the Ice Fire Union was far from being able to do this round of attack. Even if they didn't count the people in their families and the beasts, they wouldn't be able to stop it. Compared with the factions, the other forces were too weak. The foundation couldn't be made up with a few years or even dozens of years.
After the sea water calmed down completely, the Flower Moon Sect and the Misty Rain Sect pushed away all the corpses floating on the sea. But the blood couldn't be removed in a short time. The people in the sky couldn't keep waiting. They directly moved forward. They pushed the blood away with their strength and dived quickly without touching their bodies.
10,000 feet …
Two thousand feet …
Soon, the group arrived at a depth of about four thousand feet. At this depth, a Level 8 Heavenly Master would feel an obvious pressure, although it was very small. However, the pressure was very obvious when one reached 4500 feet. Generally speaking, this was the limit for an early stage Level Eight Heavenly Master.
"How is it?" Li Yin stopped and turned to look at Lu An.
"No problem," Lu An said.
Li Yin sized up Lu An, and after confirming that he was fine, he continued forward. There was basically no blood here. Furthermore, with everyone's power, the light was able to shine very far. At the very least, their line of sight was over three thousand feet, and it could also extend down to about three thousand feet.
Everyone continued to descend, and when they reached 4,700 meters, someone suddenly shouted, "Look! The castle is ahead! "
When everyone heard this, they immediately turned their heads to look ahead. Indeed, they saw a castle directly in the south where the light could reach. Everyone immediately set off and soon arrived at the north side of the castle.
When they were about a thousand feet away from the castle, everyone stopped and didn't dare to go any closer. The Flower Moon Sect elders who had been here before all revealed a serious expression. This castle was too evil. Just looking at it was enough to send chills down one's spine. As for those who came here for the first time, they were all shocked by the scene in front of them.
Castle on the high mountain.
Everyone's senses couldn't extend to the bottom of the sea, but the place where the light reached was an extremely huge mountain, or rather, the top of the mountain.
It was an extremely huge mountain. Just the top of the mountain was like a tall mountain. There were rugged rocks of strange shapes, giving people a very oppressive and frightening feeling. There was a huge castle at the top, but to be precise, it was more like a palace. The area of the castle was comparable to a small palace, and it was close to a thousand feet tall. The complexity of the internal structure was probably beyond imagination.
Just by looking at the area, volume, and overall structure, even those who didn't know much about architecture would be able to tell that this castle was majestic and mighty. However, in the eyes of experts, to build such a colossus on an uneven and irregular mountain without cutting down the mountain, the difficulty and complexity of the design alone was enough to shock them!
More importantly, this castle was actually able to stand erect in such a deep sea without collapsing. Considering that it only appeared because of an underwater earthquake, the durability of this castle was far beyond their imagination. Furthermore, it wasn't damaged after countless years.
All of this only proved one thing — the master who built this castle, as well as the clansmen who lived in the castle, must be an extremely powerful race. Because of this, Flower Moon Sect and Misty Rain Sect were looking forward to the treasures inside.
Witnessing such a magnificent sight, everyone's eyes turned from astonishment to glowing, their eyes brimming with anticipation — except for two people.
It wasn't anyone else, but Lu An And Yao.
Different from everyone else, Lu An And Yao didn't show any joy, but it wasn't like there was no change. Instead, it became extremely solemn.
When they first saw this castle, their eyes turned extremely solemn and heavy.
"Alliance head Lu, this is what we're looking for …." Li Yin turned her head and said. But when she saw Lu An And Yao's expression, her words came to an abrupt halt.
The surrounding people were taken aback, before they regained their senses and looked towards Lu An And Yao. Similarly, they discovered that their emotions weren't right. Lu An was after all a descendant of the Hachiko clan, and was also Sengoku's son-in-law. He definitely knew many things that they didn't. Yan Che immediately asked. "What's wrong alliance head Lu? Is there a problem here? "
When Yan Che's words entered their ears, Lu An And Yao took a deep breath and looked at each other.
The power of death.
That's right, the power of death!
To Yao, the power of death was the nemesis of immortal energy. Even if the power of death was weak or transformed, it would never escape the instinctive reaction of her bloodline. And to Lu An, the power of death was within her body. He understood it better than anyone else.
There was an extremely powerful power of death surrounding this castle, but it was vastly different from the pure power of death. Lu An had once told his family that the power of death was a type of energy, just like immortal energy. However, these two types of energy could simultaneously affect the body and consciousness. For example, immortal energy could make people excited and full of hope, while the power of death could make people feel extreme despair.
However, the power of death could often coexist with other special energies to form other energies, such as the power of death and so on. Although the power of death surrounding this castle was very strong, to the point that it could even affect a peak level eight Heavenly Master, there was another type of energy within this power of death. This energy didn't help the evildoer. Instead, it seemed to be resisting this energy. Although it couldn't stop the power of death from affecting the body, it clearly had significant control over its influence on the consciousness.
One had to know that just the fact that it could resist the power of death in the consciousness was definitely not simple! And this castle appeared in such a deep sea. If it wasn't for the earthquake in the sea, it might never appear!
There might be a huge secret in this castle!
"Alliance head Lu?!" Li Yin saw that Lu An hadn't spoken, so he asked.
Lu An's body trembled. He nodded lightly at Yao, then turned to face the crowd. He looked at Li Yin and Yan Che with a very sincere gaze.
"I heard that the Flower Moon Sect has already sent people to try. Is that true?" Lu An asked.
"There is indeed such a thing." Li Yin said, "But they all failed. Even if they rushed to the castle door, their strength would become extremely weak. They couldn't even push the door open. It felt as if they would die if they stayed any longer."
Lu An took a deep breath and said to Li Yin and Yan Che, "There is indeed a very special energy inside, but I can't tell you what it is. I can only say that this energy is very troublesome. Unless the two sects' level nine Heavenly Masters come, it's impossible to enter. However, Yao and I can enter. I beg the two sects to let us enter. If all the treasures are presented, we will only take one item. Moreover, the two sects definitely won't be able to use it. "
"…"
Hearing Lu An's words, the forty Heavenly Masters present were stunned.
