Nine Realms Sword Emperor-Chapter 907 - 908: Fallen Into the Trap
Chapter 907: Chapter 908: Fallen Into the Trap
"Damn it!"
The six elders of the Demon Sect couldn’t even react in time before they were hit by this tremendous force, their knees buckling, and they dropped to the ground.
An elder, someone of such high esteem!
Yet, he didn’t have a chance to get angry. When he saw Chu Fengmian’s cold gaze, this elder of the Demon Sect didn’t dare say another word.
In just that moment, he could already feel that Chu Fengmian’s strength absolutely far surpassed his own.
If he dared to get angry now, he feared he would be easily suppressed with a mere wave of a hand.
The other three elders of the Demon Sect were also stunned by this scene.
Looking at Chu Fengmian, their eyes were filled with dread and a hint of relief that they hadn’t spoken up earlier.
Otherwise, they would be the ones kneeling now.
"Mr. Chu, what brings you here this time?"
Luo Xi looked at Chu Fengmian and asked with a smile.
She seemed to ignore the elder being pressured by Chu Fengmian to kneel on the ground.
Although Luo Xi and Chu Fengmian were technically enemies, Luo Xi still had a slight smile on her face.
Listening to their conversation, one might think Chu Fengmian and Luo Xi were old friends reuniting after a long time.
"Miss Luo Xi, there’s no need to waste words here. You and I both know why we’re here; we’re both after the treasure of the Canglan Palace."
Chu Fengmian spoke nonchalantly, not wanting to argue with Luo Xi further.
They came to this Fiery Heaven Pool because of the appearance of the rainbow lights, attracted by them. Their purpose was simple, all came for the treasury of the Canglan Palace.
"Oh? So, Mr. Chu, are you planning to compete with me for this treasure?"
Luo Xi’s lips curled into a barely perceptible smile as she spoke.
"However, as you can see, there is no treasure in this Fiery Heaven Pool."
"Whether the treasure is here or not, let it be my own judgment."
Chu Fengmian replied coldly.
Even though he had entered the Fiery Heaven Pool, he hadn’t found any trace of the so-called treasure yet.
Yet, the attraction to Chu Fengmian was still within the Fiery Heaven Pool, and as he entered, this attraction only grew stronger.
This indicated that something was indeed hidden within the Fiery Heaven Pool, still drawing him in.
But that thing wasn’t here; it was deeper within the Fiery Heaven Pool.
"Treasure? I think both of you should stop looking for a treasure. Entering the Fiery Heaven Pool today means a dead end; why keep searching for a treasure?"
Suddenly, several figures emerged from the rainbow lights in front of Chu Fengmian.
The appearance of these figures took Chu Fengmian by surprise.
He hadn’t even sensed that there were people hidden within the rainbow lights.
"Four Emperors!"
Chu Fengmian’s gaze was heavy, his heart growing cold.
The four figures that appeared were all Emperors, the four Emperors from the seven major sects that entered the Canglan Palace.
"Void Emperor! Fierce Emperor! Preceding Emperor! Treasure Emperor! It’s actually you all!"
When Luo Xi saw the four figures, her gaze showed a hint of killing intent.
The few elders of the Demon Sect behind her suddenly became extremely tense.
"Demon Lord, you didn’t expect this, did you? No matter how much you calculated, you still fell into our trap."
A middle-aged man, the Void Emperor, looked at Luo Xi and the others, laughing as he spoke.
"We’ve been waiting here for a long time. It seems even someone as cautious as you, Demon Lord, can be blinded by greed."
"Demon Lord, surrender quietly. You and your Demon Sect have been wreaking havoc in the Middle Domain. Today is the day to eradicate you!"
Another Emperor, the Preceding Emperor, spoke coldly.
"It’s said that you, Demon Lord, are not just the lord of the Charming Demon Sect, but also the fiancée and innate cauldron of your Demon Emperor. We’ll capture this woman first, enjoy her well, and then kill her."
A vicious voice sounded, belonging to the Fierce Emperor, as sinister as his name, his eyes filled with lust and desire.
"So, the celestial phenomenon was also a trap set by you?"
When Luo Xi saw the four Emperors, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
In the outside world, she could summon the strong of the Demon Sect when in danger, but within the Canglan Palace, it was an isolated space.
Even the most powerful martial artist couldn’t break through the barriers of the Canglan Palace.
It’s evident that when these four Emperors saw Luo Xi enter the Canglan Palace, they devised this plan.
The sudden appearance of the celestial phenomenon in the Canglan Palace would attract any martial artist interested in competing for it.
Luo Xi would definitely come for it too; the trap was set almost seamlessly, revealing none of its dangers.
The Void Emperor laughed as he spoke.
"Indeed. If not for this, how could we lure you, Demon Lord, here?"
"Do you think you can kill me?"
Luo Xi’s eyes showed a hint of cold killing intent.
At this point, there was no chance of escaping, so she might as well go for broke.
"Of course, with just one restriction, the rainbow lights around will disappear, and you’ll be in a sea of fire. Let’s see if you, Demon Lord, have what it takes to escape the Fiery Heaven Pool!"
The Preceding Emperor spoke lazily.
From his palm, he held a seven-colored treasure bead.
The rainbow light from the bead was identical to the rainbow light around them.
"Boundary Bead?"
Seeing the seven-colored treasure bead, Chu Fengmian suddenly understood why the rainbow lights could separate the surrounding flames.
The Boundary Bead is one of the supreme treasures of the Ancient Desolate Sect, capable of splitting seas and fire, creating a unique space.
It seemed that the surrounding flames were divided by utilizing the Boundary Bead.
Yet the effect of the Boundary Bead is limited; it can only open up the central flames of the Fiery Heaven Pool.
If it were the bottom flames of the Fiery Heaven Pool, they would be far hotter than the flames here, impossible to navigate by any means.
But just to set a trap, it’s already sufficient.
"They even used the supreme treasure like the Boundary Bead; this must have been planned for a long time."
Chu Fengmian’s gaze flickered as he contemplated the situation before him.
