Flying Immortal corpses!
The female Immortals' corpses broke out of the calm Immortal lake's surface.
"Splash! Splash!"
Countless female Immortals' corpses danced in the air after they broke out of the water like fishes.
Their figures were nimble, and they looked gorgeous. They had smooth, snow-white skin, with appearances that all the women in the world would envy. However, these female Immortals did not have any lifeforce.
Countless Immortal corpses danced above Immortal Burial Lake, swimming around like mermaids.
"Sky Dome! Sky Dome! Sky Dome..."
Deep and hoarse voices continuously came from the bottom of the lake.
This scene shocked Xiao Chen, Yan Cangming, Qin Ming, and the other outstanding talents, causing their minds to go blank for a while.
These were once Immortal women whom people admired and refused to profane.
Water sprayed everywhere, looking like falling rain. Everyone felt confused and at a loss.
Suddenly, the eyes of these female Immortals' corpses turned scarlet with a pressing murderous intent.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Before Yan Cangming and the others could react, the female Immortals' corpses moving around like mermaids in the air started attacking them in groups.
Xiao Chen's expression changed slightly. These female Immortals' corpses were swift.
In the blink of an eye, three Immortal corpses charged at him, launching over with bloodshot eyes like those of wild beasts.
"Supreme Dragon Fist!"
Xiao Chen drove the Ten Thousand Dragons Art in his body, and a royal Dragon Might spread out from his body. An Azure Dragon image appeared behind him as he raised his hand to punch.
"Boom!"
Xiao Chen's fist shot out together with the dragon image, punching with the aura of a supreme being.
A fist light erupted, and Dragon Might spread out, sending the three Immortal corpses flying. This seemed simpler than expected.
Xiao Chen easily knocked back the Immortal corpses with a punch, which slightly surprised him.
However, his expression changed drastically when he saw that the Immortal corpses he knocked away had taken no damage and flew back at an even more horrifying speed.
The Supreme Dragon Fist was the strongest offensive Fist Technique. Furthermore, Xiao Chen drove it using the Ten Thousand Dragons Art's third layer and the royal Azure Dragon's Dragon Might.
Even a Great Perfection Sovereign Emperor would find this punch unbearable if struck.
Naturally, seeing that Immortal corpses remained undamaged shocked Xiao Chen and made him wary.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Xiao Chen continuously attacked with the Supreme Dragon Fist. The Immortal corpses that surrounded him tightly could not get close to him.
He discovered that these Immortal corpses' attacks followed no pattern to speak of. Aside from being strangely fast, they did not use any Immortal Arts, Magic Skills, or Magic Treasures; they only relied on their physical bodies.
However, this was already sufficient. Before these female Immortals died, they had Immortal Spiritual War Bodies. After they turned into corpses, their physical bodies would only have become even more horrifying.
Not to mention killing these Immortal corpses, regular attacks would even find it hard to injure them severely.
While it looked like there was currently no danger, it would be a problem over time.
No one would be able to leave alive; everyone here would be unable to escape.
This was an irresolvable situation.
Clearly, the other outstanding talents also anticipated such an outcome, their expressions changing drastically.
"Damn it! What's going on with these Immortal corpses?!"
Qin Ming fought using the Emperor Dragon Fist. Although he was in no danger, he slowly started to find this taxing.
According to the information of the Martial God Palace, there were indeed corpses of Immortals at the bottom of the lake. However, they were antiques from the previous epoch, as dead as they possibly could be. There should not be any danger.
If the Ethereal Immortal Palace appeared, they should just be unable to enter without the inheritance key at worst. There was no mention of encountering such desperate straits.
"How problematic!"
Upon seeing that the wounds inflicted on the Immortal corpses by his Buddhist sect's Secret Technique slowly healed, Ming Xuan frowned heavily.
The Buddhist sect's Secret Techniques usually had a tremendous suppressive effect on the undead like zombies or Desolate Slaves. However, it did not seem to have an effect this time.
Is it because of the Immortal Spiritual War Body?
As Ming Xuan fended off the Immortal corpses' attacks, he calmly analyzed them, trying to find a weakness.
Yuan Zhen, who sat on a lotus platform, maintained a barrier of Buddhist light. The Immortal corpses relentlessly attacked this light barrier, and eventually, some cracks appeared in it. Although the cracks were currently tiny, the barrier would break in time.
Yuan Zhen wanted to retreat. In any case, he could not open the Ethereal Immortal Palace, so he might as well leave.
The Wings of Time could be crucial for the changing of epochs. Naturally, it would be best if he could obtain it. However, everyone failing to obtain it was an acceptable result too.
Yuan Zhen looked at the sky, where a black hole covered up the sun. That was the passageway formed by the seven Ethereal Immortal Palace keys.
However, when Yuan Zhen saw the many female Immortal corpses flying in the air, crowding the sky, he helplessly shook his head.
Yan Cangming, who was skilled at the Death Dao, felt happy at first. He initially wanted to use the Death Dao's mysteries to control these Immortal corpses.
If he succeeded, he would be unrivaled in this place. He would not need to worry about any danger or competition. However, when he tried to control them, he discovered that the Immortal corpses could consume the energy of his Death Dao.
Furthermore, the Immortal corpses could trace the energy to its source and enter his mind and soul. This scared him into abandoning this thought.
Of the outstanding talents here, Xi showed a relatively relaxed expression.
The scarlet dragon in his sacred cloak coiled around him, letting out furious roars as its scarlet claws swiped as fast as lightning. He did not need to attack at all, as the scarlet dragon image tightly guarded him.
"Bang!"
Xiao Chen attacked again, sending three Immortal corpses flying. However, another group immediately appeared.
He did his best to dodge. However, many Immortal corpses' palms or claws landed on his Alloy Dragon Armor.
"Whoosh!" Xiao Chen took three steps back. As the Alloy Dragon Armor bore the brunt of the damage, he barely suffered any physical injuries.
However, he inhaled sharply when he saw the obvious scratch marks on his Alloy Dragon Armor, which even Soul Tools had difficulty marking.
"Demon Blood Vulture, try consuming one."
Having sensed the horror of these Immortal corpses deeply, Xiao Chen placed his right hand on the handle of the Tyrant Saber slung on his back.
I can't. Master, these... these... these women have the terrifying energy of dead souls. I cannot consume them.
The Demon Blood Vulture's body trembled, betraying the fear in its heart.
To think that the Demon Blood Vulture, which dared to eat anything, felt afraid of them. Where did these Immortal corpses come from?
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen shivered, and goosebumps appeared. He felt a terrifying gaze on him.
What he feared the most happened!
The terrifying existence at the lake's bottom, who had been continuously calling out "Sky Dome, " finally targeted him.
He had hoped that this voice was not connected to the Sky Dome Immortal Lord.
When Xiao Chen first arrived in this strange place and somehow uttered Immortal Burial Lake's name, he had felt something off about this.
Then, the flying Immortal corpses also called out "Sky Dome."
This made Xiao Chen even more suspicious, making him hope that this was just a coincidence.
However, it looked like his hopes were dashed.
The terrifying existence at the lake's bottom came for him. The flying Immortal corpse came up because of him.
Oh no!
Xiao Chen sensed the terrifying existence at the lake's bottom showing signs of making a move, so he prepared to let go of the Tyrant Saber's handle to take out Heavenly Slayer.
However, before Xiao Chen could let go, the terrifying existence at the lake's bottom reached out and pulled him down.
"Splash!" Xiao Chen entered the lake's depths.
"Big Brother!"
Xiao Suo's expression changed dramatically. He summoned out the Scarlet Blood War Banner and furiously swung it, knocking away the Immortal corpses.
Then, he prepared to jump into the lake to follow Xiao Chen.
"No!"
Just as Xiao Suo was about to jump in, Hao Kai pulled him up. Then, Hao Kai said, "Are you crazy? The lake surface is the line between life and death in this Immortal Burial Lake. Going under means death, regardless of whether you are a Sovereign Emperor or Faux God. Even an Immortal cannot escape."
"However, Big Brother... he... he was pulled down!" Xiao Suo stammered, evidently flustered.
The sudden change immediately attracted the attention of several people.
Xiao Chen actually got careless and let the Immortal corpse pull him into the lake. It was too strange.
Several of Xiao Chen's enemies were among the outstanding talents here. However, they did not feel happy about this.
Even they could hold on. How could Xiao Chen be pulled down, given his strength?
"He died?"
Qin Ming appeared stunned, stupefied for a while.
They had heard of Immortal Burial Lake's legend before. Those that entered the lake would die. There was only a line between life and death. Once one crossed that line, even the Immortals of the past died.
Strange!
The more they thought about it, the more flustered and fearful they felt. Humans feared the unknown.
The Immortal corpses did not stop attacking even after Xiao Chen sank to the lake's depths.
The danger the group faced had not been resolved yet. Who knew when they would follow Xiao Chen's footsteps?
"Clack!"
Just as everyone felt worried and confused, fearful and restless, a crisp sound came from the Ethereal Immortal Palace. This sound sounded like the most wondrous music to everyone's ears.
Everyone immediately looked over and saw someone push open the Ethereal Immortal Palace's door, which no one had managed to open after using all their means, from the inside.
"We finally came out."
Lin Feng, who was covered in wounds, showed a relaxed expression as he carried a half-dead Jiang He through the Ethereal Immortal Palace's doors.
The chaotic scene with Immortal corpses flying around that greeted Lin Feng immediately stunned him.
Back when Lin Feng touched Jiang He with his hand, the two got transported to a dangerous place filled with ancient Immortal beasts and Great Desolate Eon ferocious beasts.
Lin Feng alone already could barely manage. However, he still had to take care of Jiang He. Just how miserable he had been was easy to imagine.
However, that land of danger was like a maze; he could not find the exit.
When he finally found the exit, he saw this group of flying Immortal corpses surrounding Yan Cangming and the other outstanding talents.
Lin Feng could not help despairing in the depths of his heart.
"The door is open!"
Before Lin Feng could react, flames blazed in the crazed eyes of the group fighting the Immortal corpses.
They instantly brought out their various Dao Domains as they rushed to the Ethereal Immortal Palace's entrance and barged in at incredible speeds.
