Chapter 112: I Want To Spank Her Ass
Under the lake's surface, Luo Wusheng quickly surveyed his current situation.
Beneath him was a raised sacrificial altar.
However, the altar looked extremely simple, made only of piled black stones, appearing somewhat empty. Apart from being covered in strange runes, there didn't seem to be anything special about it.
The only thing that showed the peculiarity of the altar was the brilliant light forming a barrier around it, enveloping the altar within.
Outside the barrier was the surging lake water, which appeared hazy and displayed a shimmering rainbow hue under the reflection of the light.
Within the range of Luo Wusheng's vision, the lakebed appeared deserted, with no living creatures in sight.
"So, this is the lake created by a Tribulation Crossing cultivator... It feels somewhat scary..."
Luo Wusheng looked at the barrier surrounding the altar, his thoughts surging.
He looked up.
There were cracks all over the barrier, most likely caused by the destruction from the Nascent Soul stage Ape Netherkin earlier.
Through these cracks, he could see three cultivators guarding within the lake water.
Judging from their appearance and body shape, Luo Wusheng immediately recognized them as Nascent Soul cultivators who had participated in the Netherkin Extermination Operation in the northern part of the Royal City before.
However, these Nascent Soul cultivators guarding outside the shattered barrier seemed completely unaware of the situation inside the formation. They remained on high alert, staring at the dark areas of the lake as if afraid that an army of Netherkin would sneak in through the weakened barrier.
'To think I was able to easily enter this tightly guarded barrier… It seems that the Tower Master's techniques are truly remarkable.'
Luo Wusheng shifted his gaze away from the three Nascent Soul cultivators and looked higher up.
Even with his Peak Golden Core stage vision, he still couldn't see the situation on the lake's surface clearly. He could only sense that the lake water was constantly surging, occasionally witnessing vibrant rainbow lights permeating the water with tremendous power.
The most intimidating scene was in the remote area. The Ape Netherkin occasionally stepped into the lake, and every time its giant furry legs touched the lakebed, it caused the ground to tremble and the water to roll.
However, the Ape Netherkin could only stay in the shallow area near the edge of the Ascending Immortality Lake and was unable to penetrate deeper due to the obstruction made by the Immortal Nation cultivators.
"It seems like this gigantic Netherkin doesn't seem to be in a hurry..."
Observing the giant form of the Ape Netherkin as it occasionally stepped into the lake and then retreated after a few struggles, Luo Wusheng pondered thoughtfully.
He also had a few guesses in his mind.
To deceive the sight of two Tribulation Crossing cultivators and so many Nascent Soul-stage guards, logically speaking, it shouldn't have been as easy as he had experienced it. Even the Tower Master, who was also at the Tribulation Crossing stage, should have faced difficulties.
If she had acted personally, it would be another matter, but to be able to bring him, a mere Golden Core cultivator, here without anyone noticing...
"It seems like she had already foreseen tonight's events and made the necessary preparations— The [Art of Divination] is truly an amazing thing to have."
As expected, the ability to see the future is something that would almost make the user invincible.
You can just sit in any place, see the future, and run away from anything that might harm you.
Unfortunately, he was a man who was on a deadline; it was unlikely he would ever have the opportunity to learn such skill.
His mind calmed down.
Since he hadn't encountered any obstruction at all, he could now focus on his task.
"But for her to not even mention half of the plan and simply give me a storage pouch as if this was some kind of game— That really matches the original impression I had of the Tower Master..."
Unfortunately, his impression of her had now turned into that of a bratty Mesugaki that he couldn't afford to provoke.
After a brief sigh, Luo Wusheng's spiritual awareness entered the small storage pouch in his hand.
His heart felt slightly excited; he didn't know what kind of formation-breaking method the Tower Master had left for him.
Based on the current situation, if his guess was correct, the Netherqueen was most likely suppressed beneath this black stone altar.
And this was the sealing formation created by the former Immortal Nation Emperor; a Tribulation Crossing cultivatorit was certainly not something a mere Golden Core cultivator like him could easily break.
"Hmm?"
Just as he opened the storage pouch, intending to see its contents, Luo Wusheng suddenly frowned.
Something seemed off...
Before he could even glance at the contents of the pouch, he immediately shifted his attention away from it.
He noticed that his own storage pouch, which belonged to him, suddenly emitted a faint starlight.
Damn it!
In just an instant, he realized what was happening, as he had experienced this familiar scene earlier tonight.
It's something that happens when he's around the Human Emperor Sword— It means the Empress is here!
Seeing the jade stones related to the sun, moon, and stars within his storage pouch starting to stir, Luo Wusheng confirmed his suspicions.
Without a doubt, what was now activating the power of the sun, moon, and stars in the vicinity of the Ascending Immortality Lake was the third sword strike that the Empress should have unleashed during the Netherkin Extermination Operation.
In other words, at this moment, the Empress was above the Ascending Immortality Lake, gathering the power of the sun, moon, and stars.
Luo Wusheng's expression changed.
If the Empress found out about him secretly releasing the Netherqueen at the bottom of the lake, his life in the Royal City would probably come to an end, right?
What should he do? Should he immediately seal the storage pouch to stop the flow of the power of the sun, moon, and stars?
No, it was already too late.
The starlight had already dispersed, and even if it floated outside the barrier, it would attract the attention of the Nascent Soul stage guards stationed at the cracks.
At this moment, a memory flashed through Luo Wusheng's mind, just before he was brought to this place by the Tower Master.
He recalled the scene of the mischievous white-haired loli turning away from him and saying, "The time has come".
'What kind of time is this?! The time to die!?'
Luo Wusheng felt like he was about to go mad.
If he weren't well aware that Yue Xuanji could defeat him without even lifting a finger, he would want to grab that little white-haired girl and spank her ass red.
As If sending Gao Shi to the Royal City to still trouble the last time wasn't enough, she had come to stir the pot herself this time, huh?
As he saw the starlight floating higher and higher, Luo Wusheng realized that he didn't have time to hesitate any longer.
Since it had come to this, what else could he do? He had to give it a try.
With a firm resolve, he poured his spiritual energy into the small storage pouch given to him by Yue Xuanji.
The items he hadn't had a chance to see clearly flew out from the pouch and landed on the altar, emitting a bright light...
Boom!
At that moment, the altar collapsed, the barrier shattered, and a beam of light soared into the sky, completely covering up the dispersed starlight.
...
In the tranquil dense forest.
Yue Xuanji's delicate jade foot lightly tapped on a branch as she gazed at the pillar of light illuminating the night sky. Her little head tilted slightly.
"What a pity..."
She said this with a tone devoid of any emotion, but if the Netherqueen, her "Good Friend" were to stand by her side, she would say that the Tower Master is actually feeling happy.
"Although I still want to spend more time with him…. Well, it's not the right time yet. I can wait for him in the inn."
As her words fell, her figure disappeared without a trace.
