A Great Elder of the Zhai Family spoke as he eagerly stepped onto the lotus closest to the shore.
But as soon as his foot touched the lotus, there was a loud bang, and a flame shot into the sky, enveloping him completely.
"Ahhh!" The elder let out a piercing scream and began to struggle desperately.
"Great Elder!" Zhai Dewen exclaimed in shock, rushing forward to save him.
But at that moment, he was firmly held back by his daughter, Zhai Zhuqing.
"It’s useless. You can’t save him; he’s doomed!" Zhai Zhuqing said, trembling.
Indeed.
The Great Elder only struggled for a few moments before falling backward and was incinerated into ashes by the flames before even touching the lake.
Gasp!
Everyone present couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Everyone who reached this place was formidable, and this Great Elder was a prominent figure in the Zhai Family. Yet, he was turned to ash just by stepping on a lotus.
Just how terrifying was this lotus?
As everyone was in shock, the Holy Maiden suddenly snorted coldly.
"Mere flames dare to block me? Witch Deity appear!"
Boom!
An overwhelmingly terrifying force emanated from her, and a phantom image of a green-faced Witch Deity appeared before everyone.
The face of this deity was blurred, seated in a meditative pose, instilling deep fear.
Then the deity slowly extended its hand, pressing down.
Midway, the hand transformed into an enormous palm, bridging the lake and the mountain like a bridge.
Boom!
The water beneath the palm erupted in fierce flames, frantically scorching the palm.
The power surrounding the Witch Deity quickly dissipated.
"Go! The Witch Deity can only hold for a quarter of an hour!" the Holy Maiden ordered sternly, charging forward.
Seeing this, everyone immediately followed.
All those present were renowned powerhouses, and the group quickly crossed the lake and reached the mountain base, ascending rapidly along the steps.
At the same time, Xue An and his two companions finally reached the pinnacle of Mount Bu Zhou.
Despite their incredible speed, able to traverse thousands of miles in an instant, it took them a long time to reach the summit, showing just how towering Mount Bu Zhou was.
In that moment, the surroundings had become nearly pitch black, resembling boundless outer space.
Yet, amid this setting, stood a solitary palace.
This palace was desolate and ancient, full of combat scars, but still exuded a captivating aura, making one afraid to look directly.
"Flame God Palace..." Zhu Zhesheng read the plaque above softly, then looked at Xue An in excitement.
"Mr. Xue, this should be the true immortal sect’s sanctuary!"
However, Xue An showed no joy; his gaze was incredibly calm.
"The secret protected by the Zhu Family for generations is finally about to be revealed in my hands!" Zhu Zhesheng exclaimed, uncontrollably excited, stepping forward eagerly to enter the palace.
But just as he took a step, barely touching the ground, he suddenly vanished.
