Xu Nian, passing through the mist, directly arrived at the small island in the center of the lake.
This ti, the Sword Radiance did not appear.
It seems that as long as soone sets foot on the small island in the center of the lake, the Sword Radiance will automatically cease its attack.
What surprised Xu Nian greatly was that, apart from a massive stele in the center of the lake, there was nothing else.
The space on the island was not large, only about a hundred square ters.
The island was surrounded by mist, making it difficult for the outside world to see what was inside.
However, the inside of the island was free of mist.
From the inside, these mists were like a wall.
Xu Nian glanced around and finally set his eyes on the stele in the center.
This stele wasn’t very tall, just a bit over the height of a person.
Several lines of text were engraved on the surface of the stele.
Xu Nian glanced at these words and roughly understood their aning.
It turns out that the token of Fuyao Lake was within this stele, and only by smashing the stele could the token be retrieved.
The key, however, is that the stele was actually made of Heavenly Dragon Stone.
This Heavenly Dragon Stone truly rivals a Top-grade Spiritual Artifact.
To shatter it, one must reach Immortal Essence Great Success and wield an Immortal Artifact.
But Xu Nian hadn’t even broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm yet, making it impossible to unleash the true power of an Immortal Artifact.
The most crucial point, however, is that, aside from being tough, the stele is imbued with strong Sword Intent.
If one attacks the stele, they will be repelled.
Unless it’s destroyed in one strike, otherwise injury from the Sword Intent is inevitable.
The previous Sword Radiance was triggered by the stele’s restriction, sothing Xu Nian barely experienced to get here; he felt the power of that Sword Radiance firsthand.
"Whiz, whiz, whiz!"
At this mont, two figures erged from the mist and ca to the island.
These two were Feng Cheng and Murong Xue.
They were montarily dazed by the scene on the island, and upon seeing the words on the stele, their expressions beca tense.
Clearly, they also realized the difficulty of this final test.
"Any ideas?" Feng Cheng asked Xu Nian.
Xu Nian shook his head and said, "Let try it once."
"Be careful!" Murong Xue cautioned.
Xu Nian nodded, then imdiately summoned the King Jing Sword.
In an instant, a sharp Sword Intent soared into the sky.
Xu Nian looked at the stele ahead and swung the King Jing Sword in his hand.
"Buzz!"
The fierce Sword Radiance instantly pierced through the space and cleaved onto the stele.
The stele shook, yet remained completely unaffected.
The next mont, a terrifying Sword Intent ripple surged from the stele, directly blasting towards Xu Nian.
The power of the Sword Radiance was even more terrifying than Xu Nian’s attack.
Xu Nian’s face paled instantly; he swung his sword to block.
"Pfft!"
Xu Nian spat out a mouthful of blood, his figure retreated to the edge of the island.
The Sword Radiance was redirected by Xu Nian using Space Profound Arguntation.
However, even then, Xu Nian was still gravely injured.
"Are you all right?" Murong Xue hurried over with a worried look.
"I’m fine, cough... But this stele is harder to break than I imagined, the Sword Intent on it is too strong, at least left by a powerhouse with a realm above Fourth-level Heaven, breaking it will be difficult!" Xu Nian said, clutching his chest.
Murong Xue and Feng Cheng also wore faces filled with distress, clearly aware of the difficulty of the stele’s test.
"I think we should give up, wait until I have broken through to the Earth Immortal Realm, then try again," Murong Xue suggested.
"Yes, Murong Xue has an Immortal Artifact, and her realm has already reached the Third Level; if she achieves Immortal Essence Great Success, she should be able to break open this stele," Feng Cheng added.
Xu Nian frowned, next ti?
The ti that this Domain place is open should be limited, right? For Murong Xue to reach the Peak Early Stage Earth Immortal in such a short ti seems unlikely.
"I’ll try again!"
Xu Nian said unwillingly.
He then stood straight again and began to harness the Kun Cave Power.
This ti he wants to see if Kun Cave Power can break this stele.
The sa sword technique, Xu Nian swung a sword straight out.
This ti, the power emanating from the Sword Radiance was more terrifying than the last.
"Buzz!"
The stele shook again, and Xu Nian’s Sword Radiance left a sword mark on the stele.
However, the sword mark was only one finger long and one inch deep.
"How is this possible?" Xu Nian was stunned.
He had used Kun Cave Power and the Second Level Dinsion Cutting Technique Profound Arguntation to deliver his strongest sword.
Such a sword is enough to threaten a Middle Stage Earth Immortal, even a Middle Stage Earth Immortal with Great Success.
Yet, even so, it left only a sword mark on the surface of the stele.
"Alas, seems like we can’t break this stele with our current strength," Feng Cheng sighed.
Xu Nian shook his head helplessly; he had already given it his best shot.
"Let’s go!" Murong Xue said decisively.
Xu Nian nodded and was about to turn away.
"Ha-ha, Brother Xu Nian intends to give up? Let help you out,"
A hearty laugh rang out, followed by Xu Nian seeing two figures flying in from afar and landing directly on the island through the mist.
Xu Nian was puzzled, looking at the newcors.
He didn’t know these two people, but what puzzled him most was that he couldn’t discern their cultivation level.
This ant that both of them were Late Stage Earth Immortals.
Murong Xue and Feng Cheng also looked at the newcors with vigilance, then looked at Xu Nian again.
"I wonder who you two are?" Xu Nian asked.
The fact that they knew his na ant they hadn’t mistaken him.
Just unsure if they were friends or foes.
Hearing this, they burst into laughter.
"It seems Brother Xu doesn’t know us, never mind, let introduce myself, I am Chu Xiong from the Blue Gold Army," the long-faced youth said with a smile.
"I am Lu Feng, also from the Blue Gold Army," the other youth said with a smile.
"Blue Gold Army?" Feng Cheng’s face changed, not expecting the other party to be from the Denor Empire.
Although the Four Great Sects didn’t have much contact with the Denor Empire, they knew that the Denor Empire’s strength was not weaker than the Four Great Sects, possibly even stronger.
Murong Xue also had a face full of surprise.
Xu Nian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, so they’re from the Blue Gold Army.
He was also part of the Blue Gold Army, so perhaps these two could be considered his brothers.
"Xu Nian greets the two senior brothers," Xu Nian said.
"Ha-ha, no need for formalities. We’ve received your news from the commander. We happened to pass by and saw you had so trouble, so we wanted to lend a hand," Chu Xiong said with a smile.
"Senior brother ans, you can break this stele?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.
Chu Xiong and Lu Feng exchanged a smile, then Chu Xiong walked straight to the stele.
He summoned a giant axe and cleaved the stele in two with one swing.
Xu Nian, Feng Cheng, and others were stunned.
