Atop the palace, he could see the statues of three strange beasts that were seated in the lotus position
“A palace? Why has a palace been built here?” Ning was secretly puzzled He i his surroundings as he moved towards the palace
Ning stood outside the palace, staring towards the insides His eyes were filled with torch-light as he did so He had the feeling that there was a reason this palace was here
“Eh?” Ning’s [Torch-Dragon’s Eye] suddenly discovered a body flickering about within the deepest parts of the palace
“It’s co”
“It hasn’t been a thousand years yet Why has it coain?”
“Then let’s fight Let’s fight!”
The figures within the darkest reaches of the palace had eyes filled with frenzy
As for Ning, still standing outside the palace, he frowned “I wasn’t seeing things There really are living beings inside this place”
Whoosh After hesitating for astepped into the palace Here at Undermoon Lake, neither coresense nor heartforce could be used to search Thus, the only choice was for hie led to this place, this eye-catching palace definitely served a specific purpose
This was the front palace Two corridors connected to it led deeper into the palace Ning chose one of the to an enormous courtyard that was filled with many pavilions
Whoosh!+ The wind suddenly moved
Ning was still walking through the corridor His faced changed, and a sword in his hands instantly chopped backwards Here in the palace, Ning had naturally kept his swords in his hands
Clang! A ringing sound could be heard, followed by a figure flashi+ng past him
“Stay your hands!” Ning’s face changed, and he hurriedly called out, “Stop this! I’m not an enemy!”
Slash!+ Yet another gust of wind as yet another blurred form appeared
“Ehpeak, I’ said hurriedly His voice, filled with divine power, echoed outwards as he used his swords to block as he dodged
“Eh?” The distant blur ca a pair of bladewheels in his hands He stared at Ning with a berserk look in his eyes His eyes were vaguely bloodshot; clearly, he wasn’t disguising his murderous intent at all
“Three Realrowled, “Snowfiend, we’ve fought countless tiuised yourself as an Empyrean God of the Three Realms on multiple occasions Do you really think you’ll be able to fool ain?”
“E said hurriedly, “I really am from the Three Realms I’m not this ‘Snowfiend’ person Your master is Exalted Celestial Carefree of the Daoist Path, aht?”
Ning was naturally able to recognize this person at a single glance
The Three Realin with, and Ning had actually spent ti all of the thousands who had entered Undermoon Lake Undery, and it also contained within it y Both divine power and ki could be replenished here Although the density of the energy here couldn’t compare to that of the Three Realh to maintain life
Thus, Eed His aura, however, had changed dramatically
Roughpeak: A relaxed, carefree Empyrean God who always had a smile on his face That’s what the report about hi saw had an ashen face, bloodshot eyes, and was filled with a surging killing intent Clearly, he had reached the point where his Dao-heart was unable to control his murderous impulses
“Master?” The youth stared at Ning, frowning “And who are you? I’ve never even met you”
“I only beganafter you entered Under said “I am the disciple of Daofather Subhuti”
Many people in the Three Real was Subhuti’s disciple, and so Subhuti no longer forbade Ning fro it to others
“Subhuti?” The youth laughed coldly, “I is from many of the other Empyrean Gods who entered this place Do you really think you’ll be able to fool me so easily?” But despite his words, the youth still didn’t move
“My master resides within the Crescent world, within the Triscar Crescent Abode of Mount Innerheart,” Ning said hurriedly
The youth frowned Although many Empyrean Gods had indeed entered this place, it was true that few of them would have cause to discuss the Tristar Crescent Abode of Mount Innerheart
“Your master is the Exalted Celestial Carefree Exalted Celestial Carefree, back when you were still in the outside world, had a total of seventy-three disciples These days, he has a total of seventy-six,” Ning said “The eldest disciple of Exalted Celestial Carefree died during the Primordial Era His name was True Immortal Riverloss Exalted Celestial Carefree’s second disciple…”
Ning continued to speak, and the face of the youth quickly changed His body actually began to trean to appear in his eyes
“Ha…hahaha…” Tears flowed down the youth’s face as he laughed “Hahaha…hahahaha…”
Ning slowly cahpeak cried and laughed at the sas; this wild laughter was nothing s
“What is your name, junior apprentice-brother?” The youth finally ca with a war, disciples of ed to the Daoist Path would sometimes refer to each other as ‘senior apprentice-brother’ or ‘junior apprentice-brother’; this was a fairly friendly way of referring to each other
However, although Daofather Subhuti trained in both Buddhism and Daoism, he couldn’t really be considered a hpeak felt extremely friendly towards this newcomer Empyrean God fro as ‘junior apprentice-brother’
“My nas to you, senior apprentice-brother Roughpeak,” Ning said
“Junior apprentice-brother Darknorth” The youth s vanished from his eyes
