Chapter 1023 Bluff (2/2)
The hole in the boundary was done...but this was merely the start. For the Heavenly Fire Tree King to break out, the Nascent Source expert needed to be forced off his platform.
This was the most troublesome part of the plan.
Zhou Yuan’s expressions fluctuated indeterminately. After a long silence, a determined look flitted across his eyes.
...
A gray-robed Nascent Source expert was sitting quietly on a stone platform. He understood how important this location was and thus did not dare to relax. His senses would scan the surroundings for any disturbances from time to time. Fortunately, he had yet to find anything out of the ordinary.
He mumbled to himself, “I wonder how the battle above is going...but with the endless support from the tree king, victory is only a matter of time.”
His expression suddenly changed as his gaze abruptly swept downwards. He had sensed a faint disturbance below.
His pupils violently shrank. Unbeknownst to him, a figure cloaked in a black robe had appeared on one of the chains below.
The figure stood there like a ghost. What alarmed the gray-robed Nascent Source expert the most was that he had not detected how this figure had appeared!
The Nascent Source expert swiftly reacted with a shout, “Someone infiltrated this place!”
The numerous Heavenly Sun experts immediately cast their gazes over, bewilderment appearing in their eyes as they locked onto the black-robed figure.
The gray-robed Nascent Source expert did not attack but shouted, “Who are you?!”
“Kekekeke…”
The only response was a strange, piercing laugh. The black-robed figure suddenly dashed forward, heading directly towards them.
“Impudent!”
The Nascent Source expert was both alarmed and angered. He had not expected the intruder to be so insolent. Not only had he not run away when discovered, he even dared to charge towards them.
“Since you want to die…” Before he could finish his sentence, fear flooded the eyes of the Nascent Source expert and the numerous surrounding Heavenly Sun experts. They had detected a Law Domain slowly spreading from the black-robed figure.
“Law Domain?!” The gray-robed Nascent Source expert’s voice turned shrill as terror covered his face.
The intruder was a Law Domain expert?!
Which Tianyuan Region grand elder was this?!
“Retreat! Quickly retreat!” the gray-robed Nascent Source expert frantically roared as the Law Domain expanded. He had zero intention of facing the mysterious intruder because he knew that all of them would become fish on the chopping board the moment they fell into the Law Domain!
Hence, he did not hesitate as he instantly leaped back, leaving the stone platform...
Faces also filled with fear, the Heavenly Sun experts fled faster than rabbits. In a short span of a few breaths, all of them had retreated a substantial distance.
As a result, the area around the black-robed figure was left empty.
Under the black robe, a smirk appeared on a youthful face.
Elder tree king, what are you waiting for?
An astonishing undulation suddenly erupted from the center of the countless chains.
