Chapter 2296 - 2296 Someone!
2296 Someone!
Qiang Wanzhou also walked out. “I’ll go too.”
Cen Yi shook his head. “No need. All the deities in Fantasy Divine Palace should be heading toward the lightning pool. It’ll be more troublesome if too many people go. This commotion has nothing much to see….”
If it implicated the many deities, it would definitely cause huge chaos. If one went over now and wasn’t careful, they would be implicated as well.
Qiang Wanzhou’s intricate brows were covered with faint hesitation, but it quickly disappeared, and he nodded in agreement. “Yes.”
Xiao Ba was very curious. Why did all of them come out?
But seeing Cen Yi’s expression, it seemed like the incident was not minor, so she did not insist and planned to wait here quietly.
Thinking of this, she glanced toward the room Rong Xiu was in and softly said, “That’s strange. Since everyone wants to go, why didn’t His Grace come out…”
Yan Qing paused and then replied, “Master has been in seclusion lately.”
Seclusion? Xiao Ba blinked. That is rare.
In her impression, Rong Xiu had always been relaxed and rarely cultivated in seclusion. However, this was Fantasy Divine Palace, and there was much more competitive pressure from all aspects, especially when her master had been in the limelight recently.
It was very normal for His Grace to want to elevate his skills rapidly.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ba was relieved and sat back down. “Big Brother, come back early!”
She was not worried if Cen Yi could handle the situation at all.
Cen Yi nodded lightly and left.
…
Lightning pool.
The crowd standing on the shore entered a long and torturous wait. At this point, every single second and minute seemed to be extended.
“What’s with that sound earlier? Second Deity is summoning the other deities?”
“What exactly happened? Why is there such a big commotion…”
“If the Second Deity can’t even solve it, I’m afraid—”
The crowd partook in heated discussions. Worry surged in many people’s hearts.
In the recent few years, the First Deity rarely showed himself, so most matters were handed over to the Second Deity. He personally showed up this time, yet he still could not do it?
“…Aren’t you curious at all? A terrifying fire suddenly emerged from below the lightning pool. It’s clearly used to suppress the red-gold heavenly phoenix, right? Besides, one that can cause such a huge commotion is definitely not an ordinary red-gold heavenly phoenix…”
“But isn’t the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan a sinner in Fantasy Divine Palace? They haven’t appeared here for at least 10,000 years, right? Why would it suddenly explode now?”
“Who knows!? But if this guess is true, I’m even more curious. Who exactly is suppressed underneath?”
“Right! Do you recall? Previously, there was a rumor that Shangguan Yue actually has two legendary fiends, and one of them is the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan’s young mistress! I saw her rush in just now. Could it be related to her?”
Once this guess was said, it instantly attracted many people’s attention.
Someone loudly asked, “Song Qing, you guys came up together. Is that true?”
Quite a few people looked at Song Qing with varying expressions.
Song Qing knitted his brows and did not speak, but he glanced at Si Jing. Why did they ask me about this? Wouldn’t Si Jing, Chu Liuyue’s subordinate, be clearer?
Of course, he knew clearly that those people had lingering fears, so they did not ask Si Jing—ever since the lightning pool exploded, the maniacal abilities he exhibited caused people to look at him differently. Everyone knew that this person could not be trifled with!
Si Jing acted as if he did not see them. He tightly held the lightning hammer in his hands as he stared forward with focus, and his ears moved undetectably
A tiny sound vaguely entered his ears. As time passed, this sound became increasingly clear.
Dong dong!
Dong dong!
This was the sound of the lightning that was sealed underneath the countless rocks, constantly smashing against them and wanting to break through!
At this point, the scorching fire flowed at a reduced speed. However, its suppression was not reduced at all.
Who knew what was the situation underneath…
Si Jing held his breath in.
…
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
Two figures arrived one after another.
The crowd looked up.
The incoming people were Jin Yunlai and Shu Jing.
The deities had their own matters to be busy with normally. As Jin Yunlai and Shu Jing were in charge of the Star Path and medicinal mountain respectively, they had the most amount of time, so they naturally came the fastest.
Seeing the scene before them, even though they had already done mental preparations, the duo were still stunned.
The red-golden fire kept flowing out and crazily surged around, almost flipping half the lightning pool upside-down.
The dark sky was also lit up by this fire.
It was a mess between heaven and earth.
“Did… Yi Zhao commit suicide?” muttered Jin Yunlai in shock.
Shu Jing, after a momentary hesitation, made up her mind and went down the lightning pool!
Jin Yunlai was about to call her, but he saw that her figure had already passed, so he could only follow her.
Plop!
The duo rushed into the lightning pool consecutively.
Seeing this scene, the crowd was even more worried.
“Such a big trouble hasn’t appeared in so many years in Fantasy Divine Palace. It can actually cause so many deities taking action at the same time…”
“Let’s move back a little more. The fire is about to burn until the shore!”
“I wonder what’s happening below…”
Si Jing was tempted, but just as he planned to take action, a familiar commotion sounded behind him. He instinctively turned around with a face filled with shock. “Big Brother?!”
Cen Yi’s arrival did not attract many people’s attention. After all, at this point, everyone’s minds were on the deities and the lightning pool.
Cen Yi’s gaze brushed past him and later landed on the token around his waist.
“Watch it,” said Cen Yi lightly, as he raised his chin.
Si Jing looked down and saw that the word on the token became even brighter and intense at some point, as if it was about to break away from it at any time!
His heart beat quickly, and his rough hands brushed past the surface. The faint ripple was then appeased, and the word recovered its initial appearance.
“Thank you, Big Brother,” Si Jing said. Then, he glanced at Cen Yi and hurriedly asked, “Big Brother, are you also going to the lightning pool? I’ll go with you!”
Cen Yi tilted his head to glance at him. “You can just stay here.”
Si Jing scratched his head in regret. “Oh, okay! I’ll just wait for Master and Big Brother to come back!”
Cen Yi acknowledged it. After that, his figure moved, and he disappeared into the lightning pool.
…
The area below the lightning pool had completely descended into chaos!
Jin Yunlai and Shu Jing hadn’t arrived yet, but their speeds were already obviously reduced due to the restrictions of the crazily tumbling lightning bolts.
Yu Qian glanced over and raised his wrist!
That seal instantly caused a ripple and spread those lightning bolts!
The two people could then escape.
Almost at the same time, a figure arrived closely behind the two of them. He used Yu Qian’s force to successfully avoid the entanglement of those lightning bolts.
Yu Qian knitted his brows. This aura is very unfamiliar! Who dares to be so reckless to come down at this point?
He glanced at the person in annoyance. Then, his eyes narrowed!
