Outside the Immortal Mansion, deep under the sea.
When True Person Lu Feng withdrew from the formation, Wind Sovereign was seething with anger. He could only watch helplessly as the mansion's defensive formation closed, and it seemed that the Immortal Mansion was about to activate and disappear.
"Lu Feng!" Wind Sovereign gritted his teeth.
Lu Feng's action was a clear breach of their agreement. In truth, Wind Sovereign had anticipated such a scenario, even warning Lin Fei to leave the Immortal Mansion beforehand. Yet, he still fell into Lu Feng's trap.
This highlighted the gap between the three major powers and the Taiyi Dao Palace. The Taiyi Dao Palace, in its dominant position, acted unilaterally, fearing no consequences. Even if Lu Feng suddenly withdrew, what could Wind Sovereign do?Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com
However, Wind Sovereign, Red Crane True Person, and Golden Light True Person couldn't act with such impunity, fearing that Lu Feng, representing Taiyi Dao Palace, would use any indiscretions as an excuse against them. The three major powers could just barely hold on, further showcasing the dominance of Taiyi Dao Palace.
"Lin Fei dared to kill so many Foundation Establishment cultivators from my Taiyi Dao Palace; let him be forever trapped inside the Immortal Mansion," said Lu Feng, his gaze icy. But even if he killed Lin Fei, it wouldn't quench his anger. He even glanced at Wind Sovereign, but didn't act. Nearby were the vigilant eyes of both Red Crane True Person and Golden Light True Person.
Lu Feng had previously tried to sow discord among them, hoping to weaken them and kill Wind Sovereign. Perhaps even using this rift as a wedge to further divide the three major powers. Unfortunately, he underestimated the unity of the three powers and the resolve of both Red Crane True Person and Golden Light True Person. Even Golden Light True Person, who had conflicts with Wind Sovereign, stood resolutely by his side now.
True Person Lu Feng wasn't confident in taking on three powerful figures at the Golden Core and Martial Sovereign levels. Thus, he refrained.
Although many Foundation Establishment cultivators had died, this expedition to the Immortal Mansion had yielded numerous treasures. At the very least, they managed to extract some treasures. Perhaps, this was the only gain for the Taiyi Dao Palace from this journey.
"Let's go," declared True Person Lu Feng preparing to leave with the remaining five Foundation Establishment True Persons.
Wind Sovereign's face grew cold.
"Lu Feng," he bellowed, "I give you one last chance. Join us, the three of us, to once again activate the Immortal Mansion's grand formation. If you do, all past grievances will be forgotten. However, if you refuse, perhaps you might escape, but the five Foundation Establishment cultivators of your Taiyi Dao Palace will not!"
However, they hadn't anticipated encountering another fearsome figure in Wind Sovereign, a Martial Sovereign of terrifying might. If it came to a real confrontation, Lu Feng might remain unscathed, but judging by Wind Sovereign's demeanor, he seemed determined to annihilate them, whatever the cost.
Lu Feng hadn't imagined that Wind Sovereign would be so unyieldingly fierce, seemingly willing to pay any price.
Consequently, True Person Lu Feng laughed in fury. A hint of Golden Core energy emanated from him, and a flicker of light flashed from within him. A great seal appeared in front of him – the Great Mountain Seal!
This was the Golden Core stage's Great Mountain Seal. And having been refined by Lu Feng himself over countless periods, its power, when deployed by him – a Golden Core True Person – was naturally incomparable.
"I'd like to see how Wind Sovereign plans to kill our Taiyi Dao Palace's Foundation Establishment True Persons!"
The tension was palpable, with both sides unwilling to back down, as if on the brink of a battle.
Red Crane True Person and Golden Light True Person were at a loss for what to do next.
Just then, the Immortal Mansion began to tremble violently.
"Boom!"
The Immortal Mansion's grand formation shook intensely. Furthermore, a terrifying force seemed to erupt from within it. The entire grand formation of the Immortal Mansion flickered non-stop as if it was about to disintegrate.
"What's happening..." Everyone was taken aback, gazing at the changes happening to the Immortal Mansion. Could such a massive disturbance indicate some mishap inside the Immortal Mansion?
Suddenly, everyone witnessed a transformation in the Immortal Mansion. A crack appeared in its grand formation. And from this crack, a brilliant blade of light emerged. This dazzling blade of light penetrated the Immortal Mansion's formation from the inside out.
Simultaneously, a silhouette swiftly emerged from the fissure in the Immortal Mansion's formation!
