Above the Death Pond,
Nearly hundreds of monsters, dragons, spirits, and devils were surrounding the Death Pond. One of the dragons who was also the same commander who let Fu Chen join looked at the pond and fiercely clenched his fists.
‘Damn it! It seems like I made a horrible decision to let that boy stay. I don’t mind getting punished by the superiors but I must catch him at all cost.’
At this moment, one of the devils sneered.
“Dragon Commander, if I am not wrong, that boy had joined the war under your supervision. You and the commander of monsters who let those monsters join will pay the price for your mistake.”
Dragon Commander didn’t say anything. Instead one of the monsters shouted.
“You scum has no right to blame me. We all know that only spirits are the people who use tricks and schemes. That girl from Spirit Race has also disappeared. She must be the one who took them there.”
“Humph! Just because you can’t afford to take the blame, you want to shift the blame on us. Ling’er has been a part of the family since her birth. She will never betray us. It must be those monsters who threatened the poor girl.” The woman from the Spirit Race shouted at the same time.
Although she was trying to shift the blame, she was constantly blaming Su Ling in her heart. After all, if Su Ling is indeed involved with them, her Spirit Race’s reputation will be tarnished.
“SHUT UP!”.
Suddenly, the Dragon Commander roared and everyone turned silent.
“I will fully take the blame for this incident. That boy must be Fu Chen from the Blue Star Kingdom. Although he can fake the dragon bloodline, he can’t fake his looks, especially his eyes.”
“He must have thought that we don’t know anything about the other kingdom and openly infiltrated the Death Pond. From my investigation, that boy has become the biggest target of the Blue Star Kingdom due to his friendship with two monsters.”
“He also has some relationship with the Xue Family of Royal Capital and is currently chased by the sect he went to. Xue Family is also constantly searching for him. He has also killed the son of Wyvern King.”
“He has the rare eye bloodline that allows him to teleport and travel through space. He can’t use it constantly but it certainly is a powerful escape tool that’s why I used Top Grade Space Restriction Array.”
Hiss!
Hearing his words, everyone sucked cold air. Suddenly, the devil commander spoke.
“Since only our race hasn’t been involved in his scheme, I believe he must be handed over to the devil race for interrogation. “
“Tch! Don’t think you can fool us, devil. You just want to get his eyes. He must be killed on the spot as for those two monsters following him, they must be handed over to us for their punishment of betraying our race.”
Monster Commander spoke. He was a giant lion with three tails.
“Humph! Everyone except for Ling’er should be executed on the spot. You think we don’t know the intention of your race. Those two are rare talents and you want to use them for yourself. Don’t forget they are not eh part of the Chaos Star Kingdom.” Spirit Commander spoke.
“Enough! They will all be interrogated in front of everyone and besides, we must find out what is inside the Death Pond. The energy that always remained inside the Death Pond has vanished.”
“Even though it still has the Death Law, it will vanish as well if we don’t find out the reason behind its disappearance.”
Hearing his words, the other three commanders had no choice but to accept it. Although they wanted the benefits for their own race, they also need to choose what kind of benefit would be better.
………
Under the Death Pond,
Fu Chen was calmly training his Sage Mode without knowing anything that was happening above. It took him four hours to finally lay a perfect foundation for his new move.
In the meantime, others were recovering. They were not only seriously injured but also exhausted. With the help of his healing energy, they were able to heal their wounds but exhaustion was out of the question.
It still needed a proper break to recover. After four hours, Fu Chen finally opened his eyes and saw Chu Yan, Wu Kong, and Su Long all awake as well. They looked at him with enthusiasm, wanting to know how good his strength is.
Fu Chen showed them his palm and said “Wait a minute, I don’t think I need to tell you about my strength right now since I will be showing it a few minutes later.”
“But why?” Wu Kong asked with confusion.
Chu Yan’s eyes contracted as he asked “Don’t tell me they have already used Space Restriction Talisman or Array?”
Fu Chen nodded his head.
“Damn it! Then, how are we going to escape? Are we seriously going to fight them? Why don’t we just down here?” Wu Kong was surprisingly the first one to panic as he asked.
Chu Yan shook his head and said “If my estimation is not wrong, we can barely stay here for two more hours. After that, this space will disintegrate and merge with the pond itself.”
“Then, what about me? I can’t fight them. If they knew I betrayed them, my family would be in trouble.” Su Ling panicked as well. She hurriedly looked at Fu Chen with an anxious expression.
Fu Chen sighed and said “We have no choice but to fight them but we can’t fight them to death. Because we will be the ones to die first. So, our priority is to escape.”
“So, how are we going to do that?” Chu Yan looked at him and asked.
“I have recently developed a move that should be able to gain all of their attention at least destruction-wise. Once I get their attention, you two will do everything to find the Array Eye and break it.”
“In the next one hour, I will teach you everything you need to know about breaking the Array Eye. So, once you break it, I can use my Space-Time ability to escape with all of us.”
Fu Chen turned his head to Su Ling and continued “As for you, I am going to take you hostage. I will use the unique binding art that will show them the proof but still will be weak from inside so that if you fall into grave danger, you can still break out it and free yourself.”
“Wait, what if we didn’t find the Array Eye in time? After all, you might be able to keep them contained for a few minutes but that should be it, right? Do you have any secondary plan?” Chu Yan asked.
At this moment, Fu Chen showed them a smirk and whispered in their ears. Their eyes widened as they didn’t believe he actually suggested such a thing.
“That’s the backup plan. For now, I am going to teach you the Divine Ability that will help you solve Arrays.”
The divine ability that he taught them was ‘Divine Yin-Yang Eyes’. It was a unique ability that allows the cultivator to see through everything including arrays, illusions, techniques, and arts.
This was one of the best divine abilities in his arsenal that he got as an inheritance. He never practiced it since he didn’t need it. But, now, he does need it.
So, without any hesitation, he taught them the ‘Divine Yin-Yang Eyes’. As Chu Yan predicted, after an hour, the space started crumbling apart. The water of the pond started pouring down.
“Alright, I will use art to cover you guys. We will simply float back to the surface.” Saying so, Fu Chen instantly entered the Wood Sage Mode. The markings on his face appeared which surprised them.
“Wood Sage Art- Eternal Wood Coffin”
A large amount of wood came out of his body and formed four big and thick coffins. Seeing that, three of them looked at Fu Chen with the gaze telling him ‘Are you serious?’
“Come on! The coffin is the best place to rest.”
Fu Chen quickly entered the coffin and it completely covered him. The wood was moving on its own or rather it was already instructed so it could work on its own like closing and opening the top.
After three of the entered, the water filled the entire space, and slowly, the wood coffins started floating up. They slowly went up with ease but inside the coffin, they were a bit skeptical and also fearful.
After all, Death Pond could corrode the coffin and enter inside. But, these weren’t normal woods. They were created out of soul power, wood energy, and true essence.
They were much stronger than normal woods. After a few minutes, they finally reached the top and when they did, Fu Chen removed the top of every coffin.
He also used Wood to bind Su Ling completely. Fu Chen slowly moved toward the shore where the people surrounding him gave them a little space as they backed away.
Fu Chen looked at the Dragon Commander and said.
“How about you let us go and we will give her back to you without killing her?”
