Aside from the dragon core and the dragon scales, the three of them did not encounter anything else.

"There's someone up there." Ling Hao looked at the surface of the water and muttered softly.

Yun Feng was shocked and released her divine sense.

"Four peak Manifestation martial artists."

Xue Fei's expression changed greatly as she said, "Four? No, the auras of these people are very familiar, as if they have met them somewhere. "

"Yes, I've also seen them before. The four of them are the subordinates of the Demon Lord Chu."

Hearing this, Ling Hao instantly understood that they were looking for him.

"Outside of the sect, the sect head wouldn't even care if the cultivators were dead, unless the other sects killed the cultivators."

Yun Feng mumbled to herself. Then, she suddenly said, "Let's think of a way to go up. We must not meet them." Afterwards, she glanced at Ling Hao and inwardly thought that he was probably the target.

"It's too late. We've already descended. Let's return to the palace and see what they have to do."

Ling Hao grabbed the two girls and dragged them into the palace, hiding behind a huge stone pillar.

"Keep your breath tight, so you won't notice us."

After they finished speaking, the three of them seemed to have no chance of survival.

There was a rush of footsteps and a hubbub of conversation.

The voice came from outside the palace.

"That's not right. This kid and Elder Yun Xue came down here. I can't be mistaken."

"The stone door of this palace was broken open by someone using brute force, they must be inside!"

The four of them were all men, and they were all dressed in different shapes and sizes.

The leader was their boss, Li Yi.

The four of them had been ordered by Chu Zunyi to follow Ling Hao and kill him.

Yi Yi said coldly, "We must do as Young Master says. We brothers know Young Master's temper. Don't make him unhappy, otherwise, we'll just wait for death."

He continued, "Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we have to find him!"

Behind the stone pillar, Ling Hao faintly smiled. Sure enough, he was being targeted at him. However, how was he going to resolve this crisis at this very moment?

Even cultivators would not be able to hold their breath for a long time. In other words, once the three of them took a deep breath, a peak Manifestation cultivator would be able to instantly sense it. Although the palace seemed very large, it was actually within their control.

"What should we do? Should we charge out?"

The three of them exchanged mental messages.

Xue Fei's voice sounded anxious. The time was almost up.

"I have an idea. Calm down."

Ling Hao's eyes brightened as his gaze sized up the rock pool in front of him.

"This move is called 'disaster from the east'."

He picked up the stone on the ground and prepared to attack. His wrist lightly shook.

The stone rotated and rapidly flew towards the black flood dragon.

"ROAR!" "Who is it!?" As the black flood dragon was in the process of transforming into a dragon, its attention was suddenly distracted. Its body turned cold, and then its eyes dimmed.

In the nick of time, he was disturbed by a rock, all his previous efforts had been wasted!

It hovered in the sky, roaring non-stop.

The four of them were so scared that their faces turned pale.

"This …"

"What happened?"

"It's a flood dragon! We are no match for it! Run!" As he frantically retreated, his body became a beam of light and was about to escape.

"You four humans have destroyed my cultivation, damn it!"

"Damn it, I'm going to chew you."

The black flood dragon grabbed the one behind it and swallowed it with its mouth wide open.

The other three were so scared that their legs went weak.

They didn't see a flood dragon there at all. If they knew, they wouldn't dare to enter even if they were beaten to death.

"Boundless Dragon Breath!"

The three of them had no way out as they sealed the stone door. As the black flood dragon cried out, despair spread across the three of them. The disparity in their cultivation was too great. It was like a child facing an adult.

Yun Feng transmitted her voice to Ling Hao. "This young man, you're really damaging."

"However, well done!"

Xue Fei's voice was filled with excitement. "I didn't expect you to have such a black side. My impression of you has always been kept on the strong one."

Ling Hao rolled his eyes.

"What we need to do now is not to sit here and wait for death. The situation right now is very simple. Once this flood dragon has chewed up all three of them, it's our turn."

Ling Hao sent a sound transmission to both sides.

"Then what should we do? After appearing, if we were to face those three, we would be dead, and if we were to face that flood dragon, we might not even be left with anything. " Xue Fei transmitted her voice over, her tone slightly helpless.

Yun Feng's heart was filled with sorrow, she did not expect to die here. However, she did not regret it.

"Ling Hao, tell us, what should we do?"

The two girls looked at Ling Hao together. He had always had many clever ideas, and hoped that this time he could think of a good way to escape this predicament.

There were Flood Dragons in front, and four peak Manifestation elites behind. It was truly difficult to do among them.

There was a limit to the amount of time they could hold their breath. They were at the end of their road, and the palace was burning with flames.
