Chapter 2907
After a brief moment of rest, the group set off once more!
This time, Kai took the lead as the others instinctively followed. Nobody was eager to take unnecessary risks again!
After about an hour of traveling, Kai was unsure just how deep they had ventured into the icy underground.
However, soon enough, a grand palace made entirely of ice blocks came into view!
The air around the palace was filled with a peculiar aura that transformed into a thick fog, giving the palace an air of mystery as if it were concealed from sight.
“This is incredible; it must be the site of the true treasure!”
“Amazing! I can’t believe the treasure of the Ancient Body Refining Clan is so breathtaking!”
“I wonder what kinds of treasures lie within that palace. Let’s hurry and take a look!”
Some members of the group, unable to contain their excitement, rushed towards the palace!
Seeing this, Gao Qijie prepared to follow his Gao family subordinates inside the palace, but Kai stopped him with a firm hand.
“Hold on! I sense that things might not be as straightforward as they appear…”
Kai addressed Gao Qijie.
“What do you mean, not straightforward? Look at those people! They’re already entering the palace! If we wait too long, we might miss out on everything,” Gao Qijie exclaimed loudly.
“Mr. Chen, are we truly not going in? The treasure could be right inside that palace,” Ji Yun added, his impatience evident.
“We mustn’t go in just yet. Even if there is treasure, obtaining it won’t be easy!”
As soon as Kai finished speaking, a sudden hissing sound erupted, startling everyone!
The mist transformed into various beasts, launching attacks on those who had rushed into the palace!
Some individuals were caught off guard and turned into ice sculptures by the attacking fog beasts!
Witnessing this chaos, the others hastily retreated, their faces filled with shock as they stared at the swirling mist before them!
Gao Qijie, upon seeing this scene, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. If Kai hadn’t intervened, he could have been one of those victims!
Now, with the foreign beasts in front of them, no one dared to make a move for a moment.
“Old Sun, Zuo Qing, let’s join forces. These illusionary beasts are not to be feared. We should press on!”
Old Kong suggested eagerly.
“Agreed!” Zuo Qing nodded in affirmation.
However, Old Sun remained silent, clearly reluctant to follow the others, as their previous actions had already left him disheartened.
Now, Old Sun only wanted to stay close to Kai. If Kai decided to enter, Old Sun would follow too!
Noticing Old Sun’s silence, Old Kong felt a twinge of frustration but knew better than to voice it in such a precarious situation.
Meanwhile, Kai was meticulously examining the dense fog, his divine sense penetrating the mist to search for its source.
Before long, Kai spotted a transparent beast pellet hidden behind the thick fog, which was causing the mist to take on the shape of various attacking beasts!
Realizing this, a smile crept onto Kai’s face. He then turned to Old Sun and said, “How about we join forces to tackle this foggy beast?”
“Absolutely!” Old Sun readily agreed.
“Ji Yun, you should join us as well. The three of us will work together, but remember, we only engage one fog beast at a time. Stay away from the others,” Kai instructed.
“Understood!” Ji Yun nodded in agreement.
Kai chose these two because they were the strongest among the group. Unsure of the fog beasts’ strength, he didn’t want to risk letting anyone else experiment recklessly.
Kai unsheathed the Dragon Chopper Sword, which flickered with a hint of Supreme Fire. This was the perfect weapon to combat a foreign beast infused with cold energy!
“Let’s go!”
Once Kai identified a solitary cloud of mist, he leaped forward and charged!
Ji Yun and Old Sun quickly followed his lead, ready for the challenge ahead!
