Supreme Conceited Emperor

After observing for an incense's time, Su Jue finally relaxed his brows.

"This formation just absorbed my true energy. Right now, it's clear that the first layer of the formation has been deactivated. The appearance of the palm print on the door is the best proof. As for this palm print, it should be the core of the second formation."

Su Jue had seen many Inhibition Formations and Inhibition Formations and had even been to places like the Ancient Emperor's Ruins that were filled with Killing Arrays, so he was naturally familiar with formations.

The formations around the palace, according to Su Jue's judgement, were probably a protection array. Most of the protection arrays existed to protect a certain place.

To safely open the Guardian Formation, one must first find the Formation Aperture, and then use the key specified by the Formation Aperture to open it.

Su Jue judged that the handprint was the eye of the array, and the key …

"Since my zhenqi can let the first layer of the array open by itself, perhaps I can try this palm print."

Thinking of this, Su Jue slowly stretched out his right hand.

But right at this moment, Su Jue suddenly frowned, because just now, he seemed to have heard someone's heartbeat.

Retracting his right hand, Su Jue did not turn around to look. He had fought countless battles in his life and he had an innate sense for danger.

With just a thought, Su Jue made his decision.

Leave!

At this time, the bad feeling in Su Jue's heart became heavier and heavier. The True Essence in his entire body circulated crazily, and all of the remaining True Essence gathered onto the Grand Sun Primordial Flame in his dantian.

In this kind of situation, he would only use it when he encountered a fatal danger.

"Don't go!"

Right at this moment, a human figure flew out from a faraway cave. His hand shot out a green colored True Essence, and directly smashed onto Su Jue's Earth Spirit Bead.

The Earth Spirit Orb's power instantly dissipated, Su Jue released his Black Turtle Armor and quickly crossed the last part of the journey.

"Flying speed, killing from the air, Earth Fiend Realm Warriors."

Su Jue landed on the ground and turned to look at the flying figure, at the same time another black clothed man flew out from the cave.

One was tall and the other was short, which were the two mysterious people that Su Jue had seen before.

Two Earth Fiend Realm practitioners were simply not someone he could match up to right now.

"I can only use my finishing blow."

The Grand Sun Primordial Flame flourished in his dantian, and a faint cry of a bird could be heard. The fire elemental energy in the magma lake turned into a storm and began gathering towards Su Jue.

The two of them looked around them. Although they were shocked, there was no fear in their eyes.

"Young man, you're very vigilant." The short guy looked at Su Jue and sneered.

"Hmph, wasn't it all because of you? If it weren't for you getting excited, would this brat have discovered us?" The tall man glared at the short man beside him.

"So what? This brat is here? Did he run away?" The short one scolded and then looked at Su Jue: "Brat, don't waste your energy. You cannot escape, go open the doors to the palace."

Su Jue's heart tightened, thinking that these two people actually wanted him to open the door, could it be that they knew he could?

Although he knew that he would not be in danger for the time being, Su Jue would not be at the mercy of others.

"Brat, looks like you want me to make a move?" Seeing that Su Jue did not have any intentions of submitting, the short one spoke in disdain.

"You can try."

There was no fear on Su Jue's face as the flames in his dantian burned brighter and brighter. In the next moment, a loud bird cry sounded.

A streak of fiery light flew out from Su Jue's body. Within the fiery light, there was a vague three-legged bird.

Both of them exclaimed at the same time.

Su Jue laughed coldly, although these two people were just as he had thought, they were practitioners of Earth Fiend Realm, and did not have much experience.

His Three-legged Golden Crow was not a truesoul, but a Holy Spirit!

Spirit was also known as battle spirit. Once a martial artist released their battle spirit, they would be able to have a stronger combat strength. However, only those with a lower level true body would have one.

However, in order to use a battle spirit, one had to be at least at the ninth level of the Extreme Mortal Stage or above. In other words, they had to be at the transformation level.

Su Jue's Sun God Physique could activate the Golden Crow war body when he awakened one hundred and eight Sun God Acupoints, and he could use the Golden Crow Holy Spirit before then.

It was a pity that he was not yet at the Body Transformation stage, so he wouldn't be able to open it for too long.

"It's only forcefully opening his truesoul, what's there to be afraid of? It's not like it's a war body!" The tall one disdainfully said.

"I'm just surprised that I haven't seen this truesoul before."

After the short man finished speaking, he slapped his palm towards Su Jue.

Su Jue dodged as the Three-legged Golden Crow in the sky charged towards the short man with blazing flames around it.

"A mere truesoul, get lost!"

With a flip of his hand, the short man struck the Golden Crow Spirit with his palm once again!

At the same time, Su Jue turned and fled.

The tall one was right, the Holy Spirit was not a war body, if there were no war body, only fighting spirits that could jump realms, and fighting people of higher realms was almost impossible.

"If I knew earlier, I would have used the Spirit Gathering Grass to condense a soul sword!"

It was not that Su Jue did not think about escaping into the ground, but at the moment, the Earth Spirit Pearl's power was exhausted, and his own Innate Qi had been completely used up, causing him to be unable to escape.

"Fuck, what kind of spirit is this!"

Just at this moment, the short man's entire body was bathed in flames, and the Black Turtle Armor outside his body continued to shatter under the raging flames.

"Truly shameful." The tall one sneered and sent a few surge of zhenqi into the short one's surroundings, extinguishing the flames around him.

"Smelly brat, I will cripple you."

The short man escaped and immediately attacked Su Jue, his speed fast enough to arrive in front of Su Jue.

Su Jue made up his mind. The Divine Sun Tree in his body trembled, and if the short guy tried to kill him, he would choose to forcefully open the war body and kill the short guy.

Although the consequences would be severe, Su Jue had no choice but to do so.

At this time, an old man holding a broom suddenly appeared in front of Su Jue. Seeing the short man coming over, Su Jue swung his broom and sent the short man flying for more than thirty meters.

"It's him?" Su Jue was a little shocked. This old man was actually the old man who drank monkey wine that day.

"Who are you?" The tall man looked at the old man vigilantly. To be able to send a practitioner of Earth Fiend Realm flying in a sweep, this kind of strength was enough to make them feel fear.

The elder looked at the two, "Have the two of you been here for three months?"

Both of them were shocked. They looked at each other, then the tall man cupped his hands and said: "Senior, this Dong Ming is my junior, Song Zhong. If you have offended him, please forgive me!"

This was because Dong Ming was the Cloud Alliance's sworn enemy, the Sect Leader of the Devil Sect.

"I know why all of you are here, and I also know that you are following the orders of the Three Ultimate Heavenly Peak's people, I will not chase you away, but you must understand that since this thing is in the Tianwu City, then it is impossible for you to take it for yourselves, do you understand?" Although the old man's voice was calm, Dong Ming and Dong Li did not dare to refute him.

"Senior, what do you mean?" Dong Ming asked, puzzled.

The old man turned around and looked at Su Jue with interest. "What do you think?"

Su Jue was startled, but he did not ask. He looked at Dong Ming and asked: "Why do you think I can open this door?"

Dong Ming was silent for a moment, then said, "We have been observing the formation in the magma lake for three months, and we have discovered that the formation has three layers, and its defensive power is extremely strong. Furthermore, it can absorb the endless fire elemental energy here, so it is impossible for an attack to open.

"In the end, it is only a speculation. However, even if you all are correct, why should I help you all?" Su Jue said coldly.

Dong Ming laughed and said: "Even though I haven't been here for long, I know who you are. Your name is Su Jue right?"

"So what?" Su Jue laughed.

"I have observed you and know that you have always wanted to find out more about your father. If I tell you that I know the whereabouts of your father, will you be able to help us?" Dong Ming said.

Su Jue's heart froze, but his expression did not change. He pondered for a moment and said: "Since that's the case, then we can give it a try. Take me over there."

Dong Ming was overjoyed, and immediately flew out the door with Su Jue.

Su Jue did not hesitate, and placed his right hand on his palm.

Su Jue only felt a sharp pain in his palm, followed by a stream of blood that flowed into the palm, and then it shook.

"It's a palace, the palace is about to float up!" The short one said excitedly.

Sure enough, the stone platform beneath their feet started to rise. The lava in the entire magma lake also started to spread to the shore, and the surrounding huge stone pillars started to rise from the lake one after another.

Right at this moment, Su Jue suddenly retracted his hand.

The rising palace suddenly stopped, and soon after, the lake of lava stopped as well.

"What's wrong? Why did you stop?!" Song Zhong was puzzled.

Su Jue laughed and said: "If I don't stop now, the entire palace will reappear in front of me."

"Nonsense, what I want is for the palace to come out!" Song Zhong roared.

"If you want the palace to reappear, you have to tell me where my father is." Su Jue looked at Dong Ming and said.

Dong Ming glanced at the old man who had been watching them from the shore. Then, he said, "Alright, I can tell your father where you are. However, whether or not you can save him will be up to you."

"Tell me?" Just with a few words from you? Do you think that I, Su Jue, am a fool? " Su Jue said coldly.

"What? You want us to send your father back?" Song Zhong said impatiently.

Dong Ming glared at Song Zhong, then smiled and said: "How about this, I know that two months from now it will be your Tianwu Academy's assessment, at that time you will definitely come to the Falling Sky Swamp. At that time, I will let my devil sect's people go to the west of the Falling Sky Swamp and wait for you there.

Su Jue looked at Dong Ming, and from Dong Ming's gaze, he was sure that Dong Ming was not lying, and said: "Since that's the case, wait until I save my father, then we can meet."

"You …" Song Zhong's expression was unhappy. Just as he was about to curse, he was interrupted by Dong Ming. "If that's the case, then we'll meet again in three months!"
