The Underwater Palace
“Kakak, what is it?” Tang Yueha asked in a astonished tone as she stared at the figure who had a human shape but had very many fish scales on the surface of her skin.
Jie Yan fell silent as he also did not know what exactly the creature was. However, one thing he knows is that the strength of the figure is very extraordinary and not measurable at all.
For Yue-Yue, he was unable to trace the strength of the figure so he just watched her closely.
Even for Tang Yueha who had strong instincts was unable to judge whether the figure was dangerous or not.
Only with Jie Yan's eyes could he faintly see the extremely frightening power of an ordinary-looking body and not contain much power.
Before Jie Yan, Yue-Yue and Tang Yueha spoke again, the figure opened its eyes slowly. From the very beginning, he had tracked down the whereabouts of the three in the first moment of jumping into the waves.
The figure slowly stood up. In his right hand, suddenly a trident appeared. He looked straight at Jie Yan as if he was waiting for his arrival.
“At last anyone arrived to this place after so long.” said the figure with a voice that sounded very ancient, but it was the language used in the Saint Continent.
Jie Yan, Tang Yueha and Yue-Yue were surprised by the words that came out of the figure. This was not because he could speak, but when words came out of his mouth, there were certain ripples that spread out in all directions.
“Who are you?” Jie Yan asked with great caution.
Yue-Yue and Tang Yueha could sense that Jie Yan was so vigilant at the moment that the two of them were also on their guard.
Even when facing Leviathan, Jie Yan did not show such vigilance. This made Yue-Yue and Tang Yueha put on serious faces.
“Come here, anyone who managed to reach this place, you are entitled to get something or try the test that has been set.” said the figure.
Sensing the absence of hostility from the figure, Jie Yan also gave a small nod. He somehow felt that there was something special this time, according to his guess, the figure had been guarding the place for a very long time.
Jie Yan slowly floated up and landed at a distance of over 10 meters from the figure along with Yue-Yue and Tang Yueha.
The figure stared for a while towards Jie Yan. In just an instant, he was able to examine Jie Yan's entire body and his face slightly wrinkled at the moment even though it had instantly returned to how it was.
Such a reaction could certainly be seen by Jie Yan although it was possible that peak Sage Realm level cultivators would not be able to see it. With his eyes, it would not be difficult to notice such a thing.
Then the gaze of the figure was fixed on Tang Yueha then on Yue-Yue. Not long after, he nodded his head and spoke, “The three of you are indeed worthy to try it. Follow me.”
Tang Yueha was slightly dissatisfied with the attitude of the figure who looked like the fish-man and muttered, “Did she not explain a few things?”
The figure did not care at all and just stomped his Trident to the floor which made Jie Yan feel relieved.
Trang!
When the clanking sound rang out, the door of the originally closed palace opened slowly. He walked in slowly without caring about the three.
The figure looked like it was just doing its job.
Jie Yan, Yue-Yue and Tang Yueha looked at each other then nodded. The three of them also slowly walked towards the inner palace as well.
When entering the palace, the place was not as they had imagined. Inside the palace, it looked like there was an outside world, there was even a sun on it. It was like a small island that had a diameter of 1km, and the surroundings were the sea.
The figure slowly floated then entered into the sea which seemed to have no end at all.
Jie Yan, Tang Yueha and Yue-Yue just followed. When they enter the sea, they can breathe as normal even if they do not coat their bodies with qi. The three of them instantly realized that whoever made the palace, he must be someone very extraordinary.
Five minutes later, they arrived at the surface. As far as the eye could see, there was only a sea forest. But the place they landed was in front of some objects.
The most interesting thing is, two fairly large luxurious chairs that can be sat by two humans. Near the chair, there are several other statues.
The figure turned around and immediately spoke, “I am the Atlantean Race who is the guardian of this Palace. These three statues were those who had qualifications. About what qualifications this is, those who are considered worthy, will be appointed as disciples of two certain unparalleled existences.”
“Both seats represent two figures who are considered very grand and the ruler of the universe. If you want to find out, then you should try to see if you are worthy of being appointed his disciple. These three statues are those that are considered worthy. And for that, only two more are needed. You can go to the same place or go to different places because these two seats represent two rulers in two specific regions.” said the member of the Atlantis Race.
A frown appeared on Jie Yan's face upon hearing what the Atlantean Race members said. If what he said was true, would if they were accepted, they would be taken away?
Something like that is very suspicious. Even Yue-Yue also thought that way. And for Tang Yueha who even preferred to use muscles to have the same thought.
“I want to ask, if we are rejected, what will happen?” Asked Jie Yan.
“You will only experience such side effects in a hit but it will not kill you. Aside from this test, for anyone who reaches this palace, will get something special. The three of you should not hesitate with what I said. If I have bad intentions, you guys will definitely not be able to leave this place!” Reply to the Atlantean Race members when their qi leaks a little.
But the leak from the little qi made the entire place shake. Not only there, even the entire Underwater Palace and also the Saint Continent were affected.
Sensing the power, Jie Yan, Yue-Yue and Tang Yueha were well aware that the figure exhaled a slight breath of qi towards them, it was certain that they would turn into meat paste.
