Nine Realms Sword Emperor

Chapter 1984: Chapter 1987: Plunder! Plunder!

Chu Fengmian was now grabbing these Holy Elixirs without considering their specific medicinal effects. The more he could take, the better.

Chu Fengmian also knew that massive plundering in this Sacrificial Lake would soon draw others here.

"Boom!"

Just as Chu Fengmian was fiercely taking the Holy Elixirs, an overwhelming force suddenly surged from the edge of the Sacrificial Lake.

A formidable entity had arrived at the Sacrificial Lake.

Following closely, two more forces descended simultaneously.

The three grand elders of the Sea Festival Sect responsible for guarding the Divine Temple had returned!

These three grand elders, upon arriving at the Sacrificial Lake, immediately noticed the center of the lake, where half of the clear glazed water had been consumed by the Swallowing Heaven Secret Technique.

Upon seeing this scene, the three elders nearly fainted.

Even a Heavenly Human Realm expert would find it hard to bear such a blow.

The pure water within the Sacrificial Lake had been accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years by the Sea Festival Sect. To have half of it plundered away directly was driving them almost mad!

"Damn it! Lan Ming has gone too far! He’s insane! Daring to plunder the Sacrificial Lake!"

"Where is Lan Ming? Why isn’t he here?"

"No, the treasure vault! Lan Ming went to the treasure vault!"

Suddenly sensing Chu Fengmian’s presence, the three flew swiftly towards the center of the Sacrificial Lake.

Others didn’t know what was hidden in the center of the Sacrificial Lake, but these three, as the guardians, were well aware that it was the treasure vault of the Sea Festival Sect.

This was why the defenses around the Sacrificial Lake were so stringent, but unexpectedly, Chu Fengmian had discovered it by chance.

Losing the pure water was tolerable, but the treasure vault, accumulated over hundreds of thousands of years, could not be allowed to be plundered.

"Three Heavenly Human Realm experts have come together!"

Inside the palace, Chu Fengmian also felt the terrifying aura of the three grand elders approaching, the three Heavenly Human Realm experts of the Sea Festival Sect were chasing him.

"I can’t continue plundering!"

Looking at the countless Holy Elixirs inside the palace, Chu Fengmian’s eyes showed a hint of regret.

Though Chu Fengmian had tried his best to plunder, he had only managed to take less than one-tenth of the Palace’s Holy Elixirs; the remaining nine-tenths were still inside.

But Chu Fengmian understood that he couldn’t continue plundering any longer.

With three Heavenly Human Realm experts joining forces, Chu Fengmian could only find a way to escape; there was no possibility of confrontation.

"One last batch of Holy Elixirs!"

In an instant, Chu Fengmian scanned the countless Holy Elixirs in the palace and sensed the nine Jade Bottles with the most potent medicinal power.

Nine dragon claws reached out behind Chu Fengmian, grabbing these nine Jade Bottles and storing them in his Space Ring.

These nine Jade Bottles contained the highest quality Ancient Sacred Pills in the palace. After collecting them, Chu Fengmian, without hesitation, dispersed the Swallowing Heaven Secret Technique and the nine dragon claws, concentrating all his powers to dash out of the palace.

Almost in an instant, Chu Fengmian left the palace.

Looking beneath the glazed water lake, Chu Fengmian saw not just this palace but seven more different palaces.

A total of eight palaces, these were all the treasure vaults of the Sea Festival Sect.

The palace Chu Fengmian had just plundered only contained Holy Elixirs; it should be the one storing the elixirs. The other palaces stored Spiritual Artifacts, materials, and All Heavens Strange Objects.

Though Chu Fengmian glanced at these palaces and felt that if he could plunder them all in one go, these resources might allow him to directly break into the peak of the half-step Heavenly Human Realm, transcend the Heavenly Tribulation, ascend to immortality, and step into the Heavenly Human Realm.

Of course, this idea was just a fantasy for Chu Fengmian, as he had nowhere near enough time to plunder all the palaces.

Being able to plunder a batch of Holy Elixirs was already a massive opportunity. If Chu Fengmian stayed any longer, he wouldn’t even be able to escape.

The Sacrificial Lake was the center of the Sea Festival Sect.

This time, Chu Fengmian’s rampant plundering in the Sacrificial Lake not only alarmed the three grand elders guarding it but would likely draw even more grand elders from the Sea Festival Sect, perhaps even the ancient Sea Sacrifice Emperor, to hunt him down.

At that point, no matter how much Chu Fengmian had plundered, he wouldn’t live long enough to enjoy it.

The gains from this infiltration into the Sacrificial Lake had far exceeded Chu Fengmian’s expectations.

He not only obtained a large amount of pure glazed water but also discovered the treasure vault of the Sea Festival Sect and plundered numerous Holy Elixirs. Once Chu Fengmian refined all these elixirs, his strength could reach an entirely new level, perhaps even the peak of the half-step Heavenly Human Realm.

"Go!"

Chu Fengmian’s figure flickered rapidly, pushing his Tunneling Light to the extreme. After leaving the palace, his Tunneling Light sped towards the edge of the Sacrificial Lake, intending to leave the Divine Temple and escape the Sea Festival Sect.

At this time, the three grand elders of the Sea Festival Sect also arrived, their furious expressions at their peak as they stared at Chu Fengmian.

"Lan Ming, you ingrate! Our Sea Festival Sect raised you with such effort, making you into a Sea Sacrifice Emperor, and you dare to harbor wild ambitions and plunder the Sacrificial Lake!"

"This ingrate is trying to escape?"

"Stop him!"

Watching the Tunneling Light of Chu Fengmian trying to escape, the three grand elders of the Sea Festival Sect acted simultaneously.

When the three Heavenly Human Realm experts attacked together, their powers combined, condensing water Spiritual Power to freeze the surrounding space.

It had a semblance of the spatial sealing power of the Heavenly Dragon Transformation.

The entire Sacrificial Lake was completely sealed, becoming an inescapable trap.

Three Heavenly Human Realm experts joining forces could seal the space effortlessly, making it impossible for even another expert of the same realm to escape.

After sealing the space, the three Heavenly Human Realm experts charged towards Chu Fengmian, unleashing waves of Spiritual Power.

These waves of Spiritual Power were not intended to kill but were a means of suppression.

All three used a secret technique in unison, aiming to subdue Chu Fengmian.

In their eyes, even if "Lan Ming" had stepped into the Heavenly Human Realm, he couldn’t escape the Sacrificial Lake today. As long as they captured "Lan Ming," the losses to the Sacrificial Lake could be recovered.

If they resorted to lethal force and pushed "Lan Ming" to a desperate fight, the damage to the Sacrificial Lake would be even greater.

To the three grand elders responsible for the Sacrificial Lake, recovering the lake’s losses was far more important than killing Lan Ming.
