Martial Peak

After giving everyone ample time to prepare, Old Man Cheng swung his hand down again.

A thunderous sound rang out as the violent energy of countless attacks bombarded the mysterious barrier. In order to break this barrier and enter the palace behind it, everyone had done their utmost this time, not concealing their strength. Even Yang Kai used some of his true ability.

If this barrier was in good condition, it would have been impossible for this ragtag group to break open.

But these Ancient Ruins had been around for too long and all the barriers here had weakened significantly, such was the case with the barrier in front of them as well.

As this second wave of attacks landed, the invisible barrier distorted greatly and this time seemed to have reached its limits.

*Kacha…*

Many ting cracks appeared mid-air and soon began to spread out at a speed visible to the naked eye. Soon, the entire barrier was covered in fissures.

Everyone held their breath, their entire attention focused on the barrier, their eyes filled with expectation.

A crackling sound, like a piece of glass being shattered, rang out, and the invisible barrier suddenly broke open.

The moment the barrier was broken, all the cultivators on the scene seemed to come alive and before the Transcendent Realm masters could even issue any orders, everyone had used their movement skills and rushed forward.

At the same time, the foreign Transcendents and the masters from the Seven Family Alliance all stared towards the light sphere greedily, each of them instantly sticking their hands out towards it, wanting to snatch it up before anyone else could.

In an instant, the group of people who had just been working together, suddenly turned on one another and began a violent struggle.

True Qi surged up as everyone pushed and shoved everyone else, afraid of falling behind.

Yang Kai didn’t move, simply standing in place while coldly observing the situation. The Saintess from Nine Heavens Holy Land also stood in place. In addition, a number of more cautious cultivators stood back and watched.

Perhaps they were aware that their strength wasn’t sufficient and they had no chance to obtain the mysterious light sphere artifact, or perhaps they instinctively thought that there would be other dangers lurking about this place. Either way, none of them dared to act rashly and instead allowed the more eager members here to explore the situation first.

Sure enough, before anyone could actually even reach the light sphere, a burst of white light containing a mysterious energy wave spread out from it as fast as lightning.

The expressions of the cultivators rushing forward all changed dramatically as they were completely caught off guard by this light pulse.

Before anyone could react, they were struck head-on by the light pulse and instantly wrapped up in a stark white glow.

In the blink of an eye, those who had been struck went stiff, their eyes bulging before they fell to the ground, unable to mount even the slightest bit of resistance.
