As the crowd grew larger and larger, Qin Zhiruo began to feel anxious.
As more and more experts arrived, Qin Zhiruo's intimidating power gradually diminished, and some restless individuals began to stir.
After witnessing the terrifying black hole vortex on the tower, everyone was convinced that something extraordinary must have appeared there to cause such a terrifying change in the world!
"Fellow Daoist, the so-called treasures are meant to be obtained by those who are destined to receive them. Yet you want to stop all of us by your own power. Isn't that a bit too domineering?"
Finally, a master at the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm couldn't hold back any longer and stepped forward, his words brimming with threat.
However, this expert in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm was quite clever, as he knew how to win everyone over. If Qin Zhiruo dared to resist, she would be making an enemy of everyone.
Qin Zhiruo finally understood why these people were gathered here: they believed a great treasure had been discovered. Thinking this, Qin Zhiruo snorted coldly and said:
"Let me tell you, there's no treasure here. If you know what's good for you, leave now, or you'll end up wasting your time and your life!"
However, Qin Zhiruo's words obviously failed to convince everyone. If it were anyone else, they wouldn't admit that they had found a great treasure, right?
The late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal who had spoken earlier chuckled and spoke again:
“Fellow Daoist, if there is indeed no great treasure appearing, why not let us go in and investigate? If it is a misunderstanding, we will naturally leave.”
As he spoke, the man took a step forward, but to his surprise, no one joined him in forcing the emperor to resign as he had expected.
The man shook his head. It seemed he was destined to be the one to stick his neck out this time!
"I have said it before: anyone who enters within 10,000 meters of this place will die!"
Seeing that the other party had actually stepped into the restricted area, Qin Zhiruo decided to make an example of them.
"Celestial Technique, Water Dragon's Roar!"
Qin Zhiruo directly used her strongest immortal technique. Although her opponent was also a late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal like herself, Qin Zhiruo had the blessing of the Water God Pearl, plus her top-level immortal technique, and was confident that she could kill her opponent with one blow!
A blue water dragon appeared instantly, continuously enhanced within Qin Zhiruo's water domain. The water dragon also transformed into a thousand-meter-long form, many times more powerful than the Water Dragon Roar that Qin Zhiruo used when fighting the Water Spirit!
When the late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal saw Qin Zhiruo make a move, he naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait to die. He quickly activated his Law Domain to condense immortal techniques, wanting to fight against Qin Zhiruo.
However, this late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal was merely a rogue cultivator, whose strongest immortal technique was only a high-grade immortal technique. How could he possibly be a match for Qin Zhiruo?
"boom!"
The blue water dragon instantly devoured the immortal technique of the late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal, and at the same time pounced on the powerful figure, its power undiminished.
A loud bang was heard, and a huge pit about 100 meters deep appeared where the Great Luo Golden Immortal had been standing. The Great Luo Golden Immortal was also bombarded by the water dragon and his aura was completely gone. He had obviously died.
Those immortals who were closer were also affected by the aftershocks of the battle and were forced to retreat continuously!
"hiss!"
Seeing that even a late-stage Grand Luo Golden Immortal was instantly killed by Qin Zhiruo, everyone gasped in shock at Qin Zhiruo's power.
"Immortal Lan Sect members, heed my command! Come and assist me at once!"
Qin Zhiruo took out the sect's token and loudly gave an order to it, so that everyone present could hear it.
Some people had initially considered giving up after seeing how powerful Qin Zhiruo was, but now that they heard she was calling for reinforcements, they shook their heads helplessly and turned to leave. Even if there were great treasures here, they wouldn't be able to get their hands on them, these rogue cultivators.
Some daring individuals stayed behind, hoping to see the true face of this precious treasure.
Not long after Qin Zhiruo gave the order, several figures flew over and respectfully bowed to her. They were none other than experts from the Xianlan Sect.
These people originally gathered here to join in the fun, but after receiving Qin Zhiruo's message, they realized that their young lady was surrounded, so they rushed over immediately.
"Young Miss!"
The group from Xianlan Sect approached Qin Zhiruo and greeted her respectfully.
Qin Zhiruo nodded slightly at the newcomers. These people were all elders of the Xianlan Sect, the strongest of whom had reached the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. However, her cousin had not yet arrived. With her cousin's perfect Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, he was enough to intimidate everyone present!
"How dare the people of the Immortal Mist Sect be so domineering? They even dare to block off a section of our Changtang Domain's territory, preventing cultivators from entering?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a cultivator dressed in black robes stepped forward.
Qin Zhiruo's eyes narrowed slightly, because the newcomer was actually a powerful expert at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
"I am Hei Pengtian, the sect leader of the Blackwater Sect. Doesn't your Immortal Mist Sect know the saying, 'Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake'?"
Hei Pengtian's expression was not friendly. Although the overall strength of the Xianlan Sect was above that of the Heishui Sect, this was the Changtang Domain. As one of the top sects in the Changtang Domain, the Heishui Sect naturally could not tolerate outsiders acting so domineeringly on their territory.
"Blackwater Sect?"
When Qin Zhiruo heard the other party introduce himself, her eyes turned cold. It was the Blackwater Sect and the Floating Cloud Sect who used vicious methods to poison Chen Tianwen. Therefore, Qin Zhiruo vowed to make the Blackwater Sect and the Floating Cloud Sect pay for their blood debt.
Now that enemies have met, their eyes are filled with hatred. However, Hei Pengtian is unaware that his two elders were just killed by Chen Tianwen right here. Otherwise, he probably would have immediately gone berserk and attacked.
Qin Zhiruo didn't waste words with Hei Pengtian. She gave the Xianlan Sect members a look, signaling them to protect the tower, and then directly attacked Hei Pengtian.
Hei Pengtian was surprised that Qin Zhiruo, who only had the cultivation level of a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal, dared to attack him. He sneered and went to meet her.
The two clashed repeatedly in the sky, unleashing powerful magical techniques, and the aftershocks of their battle shattered large sections of space.
Hei Pengtian was surprised to find that he had not gained any advantage in his confrontations with Qin Zhiruo. He then abandoned his underestimation of her and took out his top-tier immortal artifact.
Qin Zhiruo also took out her Dao-level immortal artifact, the Water Moon Immortal Fan, and launched continuous attacks on Hei Pengtian to vent her anger.
"Sect Leader Hei, I'm here to help you!"
With a hearty laugh, another powerful expert at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm joined the battle.
The newcomer was none other than Xu Chengle, the sect leader of Piaoyun Sect. Seeing that Hei Pengtian was struggling to defeat Qin Zhiruo, Xu Chengle intervened and assisted Hei Pengtian.
"Piaoyun Sect?"
Qin Zhiruo also saw the newcomer's attire and recognized him as a member of the Piaoyun Sect. She gritted her teeth and said:
"The Blackwater Sect and the Floating Cloud Sect are truly a den of snakes and rats!"
