“Huh?”

Armored General’s expression changed slightly as he walked towards the half pool with the heavy sword in his hand.

“Hong Yan, you said earlier that the Immortal Lake can only hold three people, right?”

“Reporting to your Excellency, yes.”

The red-robed man hurriedly cupped his fists and said.

“Those two women came out of the Immortal Lake earlier. What about the third person? Are they still under the water?”

“Most likely, but… why is half of the pool still pitch black?” The red-robed man carefully leaned over and slightly sniffed. He frowned, “No demonic energy? This pool of water doesn’t seem to be contaminated by demonic energy. It is said that Qi Jin was attacked by Devil. Logically speaking, the people under this pool should be demonic geniuses. Why is it like this?”

“Hmph, you don’t think we can’t even tell Devil apart, do you?”

Armored General snorted coldly.

“No, no, no, my lord, this subordinate doesn’t mean that. It’s just…”

“Don’t say anything else. I can see that there is a small amount of Qi Jin’s aura around here, but there is no trace of Qi Jin. It is very likely that Qi Jin has already died, and it was done by someone under the pool!! How could such a person not be Devil? It doesn’t matter if he is Devil or not. The important thing is that Qi Jin died at his hands. Just this one is enough to kill him!”

After saying that, Armored General waved his hand and said, “Divide them into two groups. One group attacked the cocoon and dragged the two women out for me. The other one went down to the pond to salvage the people. All three of them must be brought back to the Immortal Court to be dealt with by the lords of the Immortal Court.”

“Yes!”

The surrounding Immortal Court experts shouted, and then quickly split into two groups. One group continued to launch fierce and vicious attacks towards the cocoon, while the other group directly headed towards the Immortal Pond.

Seeing this, the red-robed man opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything.

One of them cast a spell beforehand and stored a blazing flame in his palm. Then, he directly smashed it towards the pitch-black pond water, intending to roast the pond water.

But…

This flame seemed to be extremely hot and terrifying, but when it smashed into the pool water, it instantly dissipated and no longer had any temperature.

Seeing this, the rest of them immediately joined hands and used flames. A fireball that was even hotter and more terrifying than the flames from before appeared and smashed towards the Immortal Pond under the combined forces of everyone.

Chi…

An ear-piercing voice sounded.

The pitch-black water of the Immortal Lake continued to bubble, but it did not drop a single bit, nor did it have any ripples. It was as if it wasn’t the flames that fell, but some sand that fell into it…

Regardless of whether it was fire, earth, or even other strange spells, the water in the pond remained unchanged.

“Are you all idiots? What kind of immortal technique are you still using? This lord wants you to go down and retrieve people!!”

Armored General’s expression instantly turned ugly as he shouted loudly.

Hearing this, the experts of the Immortal Court looked at each other, but they did not dare to go down.

“What are you guys still standing there for? Do you want me to personally enter the water?”

Armored General was almost as furious as thunder as he roared angrily.

Seeing this, the red-robed man clasped his fists and shouted, “Lord, please calm down. Lord, please calm down. There is also a reason why they dare not rashly go down. It is said that the Immortal Lake can only accommodate three people. If they enter too much, they will suffer the backlash of the power of the Immortal Lake.”

“Right now, there is only one person in this pool. What are you afraid of?”

“But …”

“Stop talking!! At worst, send two people down!!”

Armored General was completely impatient. He pointed at the two Immortal Court experts and said, “You! And you, get down!! Quick!!”

“Yes, General!”

The two Immortal Court disciples didn’t dare to disobey and immediately jumped into the water.

Putong.

The pitch-black pool that was bubbling with water splashed, and the two of them directly sank into it.

But…

As soon as the two of them landed, the water in the pond immediately began to churn. A large amount of ripples began to form, but not long after, the ripples calmed down. Bubbles appeared in the pond water again, and then … there was no other movement.

It was like the beginning…

Seeing this scene, everyone on the shore widened their eyes, staring at this strange scene in astonishment.

“Chen Sheng, Wu Xin!! Can you hear me?”

An Immortal Court expert shouted with immortal energy.

However, not even a few shouts could be heard from the two of them who had jumped into the pond.

“This …”

Everyone on the shore noticed the possibility of the two of them and their expressions changed.

The people in the pond should still be enduring the changes in the water of the Immortal Pond. Normally, if they really wanted to go down, they would immediately bring them up. However, the water in the pond was so strange that it was impossible to guarantee that the person had completed the transformation or set up some sort of method. If the two people who had left the pond did not move, they would most likely encounter something unpredictable.

“I’m afraid … I’ve been harmed!!” The red-robed man suddenly said.

Everyone remained silent.

Armored General grew even angrier. He gritted his teeth and his eyes were filled with uncontrollable anger. He shouted, “Bastard!! Bastard!! There are so many people, can’t you even take down a little Devil? Bastard!!”

After saying that, he took a few steps forward and stared at the pitch-black pond water. His hands quickly formed seals, and a mysterious immortal energy floated between his palms. Very quickly, this immortal energy began to condense into a giant white immortal sword, circling between his palms. He shouted loudly and the immortal sword directly slashed towards the pond water.

Boom! !

The water in the pond instantly exploded. It was directly split into two by this mysterious immortal sword. It spread out left and right as if someone had forcefully pushed it open. The person under the pond water also appeared in front of everyone.

This was a man wearing a pitch black cloak. The man’s face was abnormally pale. The cloak on his body looked extremely thin, as if it would break at any time and anywhere. Other than this cloak, there was nothing else. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged at the bottom of the pond, his eyes tightly closed, as if he was meditating. He didn’t know if he had noticed anything outside.

“This is the person!!”

Armored General opened his eyes wide and stared at Su Yun, shouting, “Go!! All of you, go!! Take this person down!! Quickly take this person down!!”

Seeing that Armored General was actually capable, the morale of the immortals on the shore was greatly boosted. Hearing this, they all jumped into the pool.

Hualala.

A large number of immortals poured into the pond water and directly attacked Su Yun. Several chains also followed, looking at this posture, it was shocking to see that it was going to tie Su Yun up.

But…

After dozens of immortals rushed into the water, the pitch black water that had been separated suddenly closed. Not only that, there was even a large amount of water that was like the claws of the Abyss, grabbing onto the nearest immortals and dragging them inside.

Putong, putong, putong…

These people from the Immortal Court didn’t even have time to guard against it and were directly dragged inside.

“What’s going on??”

“Help!! Help me!!”

“Ah!! What is this?? What is this? Let go of me!! Let go of me!!”

“Help … Help …”

These people were constantly struggling in the Immortal Lake. Their heartbreaking shouts did not last long, but they were all dragged into the pool water. After that, they could no longer see anyone. The pool water churned for a while, and very quickly, it regained its calm. Not long later, a large number of bubbles appeared on the surface of the pool, but no one could be seen anymore.

This time…

Even Armored General didn’t say anything. He stared blankly at the pitch-black surface of the pond with widened eyes. He didn’t say a word for a long time.

The Immortal Lake was very quiet.

No one had ever seen such a strange scene before. Those Immortal Court people who had left the pond were all experts at the fifth stage of the Ling Xuan Immortal Realm! ! Even God Ling Xuan! Shouldn’t it be so easy to kill so many Ling Xuan Immortal Stage 5 and above experts? ? What exactly was going on? This fellow should have yet to complete the transformation of the Immortal Lake. Why did this happen? ?

Everyone felt their breathing tighten.

The red-robed man was probably the first to react. He hurriedly walked in front of Armored General and whispered, “Sir, this person is unusual. I’m afraid we can’t deal with this person yet. We should leave quickly and spread out our defenses. We should inform all the adults on top of us as soon as possible and ask them to send more experts to help us!”

“Help?”

Hearing this, Armored General gritted his teeth and said angrily, “In order to seize this opportunity to do meritorious deeds, I specially requested orders from all of you and brought out all my subordinates, but in exchange for such a result? How can I accept it?”

“But things have indeed exceeded our imagination. If we are still in such a dilemma, who knows what kind of accident will happen? There is nothing we can do right now.” The red-robed man said helplessly.

“It’s just a Devil!! What do you mean helpless?” Armored General gritted his teeth, clearly not wanting to give up.

“Sir …”

“There’s no need to say anything!! If you’re scared… then you can leave first!!”

“This …”

Dulu, dulu, dulu…

At this moment, the pitch-black bubbling water suddenly emitted a strange sound.

The two of them looked over, only to see that the pitch-black surface of the pond had actually begun to slowly descend, as if it was being extracted by someone.

Seeing this scene, all the immortals in the surroundings turned their blades towards the Immortal Lake.

Armored General also gripped his thick sword tightly, as if he was facing a great enemy.

The water in the pond descended lower and lower, becoming less and less. In the end, it completely dissipated and was completely absorbed by the person sitting at the bottom of the pond.

When the last drop of water was absorbed by that person, the person sitting cross-legged also moved.

He directly opened his eyes and looked at the countless people from the Immortal Court standing beside the Immortal Lake. His dry mouth revealed a sinister smile.
