Huo Feng threw the two corpses into the lush bushes on the shore and then quietly dove underwater with Ice.
Once submerged, Huo Feng realized that the lake was much larger than it appeared from the surface. It resembled a narrow-mouthed jar, with a bulging belly and an unfathomable depth, revealing only some long strands of water plants.
Although the bottom was not visible, Huo Feng discovered a faint yellow light deep down. He speculated that this must be the palace made of minerals. Without hesitation, Huo Feng swam towards that direction.
········
"Big Brother, I sense two unfamiliar presences. Should I go take a look?"
At that moment, in the depths of the peculiar Mineral Palace, within a quiet and dim hall, a figure obscured by a layer of mist sat on a Mineral Throne carved with countless Snake Heads. His face was completely unrecognizable, and each protruding Snake Head on the throne was embedded with glowing jewels. Beside him stood a thin, hunchbacked old man who leaned in to whisper.
The figure on the throne slightly turned his head to glance at the hunchbacked old man, causing the old man to instinctively take a step back in fear, not daring to look up at him.
"Do you think we need to be this anxious? You worthless bunch, and that second brother as well, actually managed to die in the territory of those dwarfs. It seems I need to properly train you all once this matter is resolved."
Hearing the old man's dry face glisten with sweat at the sound of that aged and emotionless voice, he dared not move an inch.
"Gather your useless brothers and have them wait at the palace entrance to welcome our guests. If you can't complete the mission, don't bother coming back alive," the figure spoke again.
"Yes?????? Yes?????? Yes??????" The old man hurriedly stumbled backward out of the hall. Only then did he wipe the sweat from his forehead, feeling a wave of dread. "It seems Big Brother has improved again after this retreat; I must ensure nothing goes wrong. Otherwise, with Big Brother's temper, one misstep could cost me my head."
Thinking this, the old man shivered involuntarily and quickly headed toward a side hall.
?????????
"Big Brother, I can already see a rough outline of the palace," Ice said excitedly to Huo Feng.
Huo Feng glanced at Bing and said, "When did I suddenly realize you love to play so much? You weren't like this before."
"That's because you didn't understand me back then, big brother. Let me have a big go this time; it's always you taking action, and my body is almost rusting," Bing replied excitedly.
"Alright, alright, I'll leave it to you this time. I'm happy to take it easy," Huo Feng said with a helpless shake of his head.
"Hehe! Heehee! Then I'll speed things up!"
With that, Bing transformed into a massive form, extending its giant claws to grab Huo Feng and swiftly took off towards the Mineral Palace.
"Hunchback Brother, did you sense that? What a terrifying aura; it's completely on par with big brother," one of the ten or so people standing at the palace entrance exclaimed in panic to the hunchbacked old man.
The old man wore a serious expression and remained silent. He was the strongest among the group and certainly felt the overwhelming aura. However, recalling big brother's words, he sensed that they were in for a tough time.
He then said, "Brothers, this aura is indeed strong, but if we don't handle this well, we might all meet our doom. You should be aware of big brother's strength, so we must give it our all. After all, there are only two of them."
Upon hearing this, everyone furrowed their brows. Seeing his brothers like this, the old man immediately spoke with a stern tone: "Everyone, focus! We all crawled out from piles of dead bodies; are you really going to let an unseen powerful enemy scare you like this? We are united as brothers; if we cooperate well, there's no reason we can't deal with them. If that's the case, we might as well consider ourselves dead already."
His words instantly steeled everyone's resolve. At that moment, one person spoke up: "Hunchback Brother is right. Although we are only at Earth Vein Realm Level Five and Six, we've all survived countless battles. I refuse to believe that we can't handle them when we join forces."
Seeing their determination, the old man felt somewhat reassured, but he couldn't let go of his worries. The gap between levels was indeed vast.
Just then, they saw a massive blue meteor-like object rapidly descending towards them. However, they knew it wasn't a meteor because the terrifying aura they sensed earlier was emanating from it.
"Boom!"
The ground at the entrance of the Mineral Palace was struck by the object, creating a pit and causing the previously calm water around to churn violently. The old man and his group struggled against the surging waters.
After a while, the water calmed down. At that moment, a young man dressed in a white robe emerged from the pit, accompanied by a giant light blue magical beast over four meters tall.
However, all ten people's gazes were fixed on Bing, as the aura emanated from him. The crowd looked at Bing in terror, and one person swallowed hard and stammered, "Hunchback Brother, what... what kind of magical beast is this?"
The old man had lost his focus to answer the question, staring intently with his eyes, which had narrowed into slits due to age. He felt a sense of foreboding in his heart. "What kind of magical beast is this? It's so powerful; how come I've never seen or heard of it before? Why is it targeting us?"
What puzzled him even more was the calmness of Huo Feng standing beside Bing. He realized that Huo Feng's strength was vastly inferior to Bing's, yet he could stand unharmed next to him, seemingly together.
At that moment, Bing spoke to Huo Feng in Dragon Language: "Big brother, these people are too easy to play with. I thought I would encounter some strong opponents."
"That's because you're too strong. Since you want to play, then I'll leave them to you; do whatever you like," Huo Feng replied with a grin.
Just then, the old man stepped forward, forcing a smile as he addressed Huo Feng, "Who are you? What brings you to Water Mansion?"
"I am here to collect your lives," Huo Feng said, then turned to Bing and added, "Bing, go ahead; they are all yours."
Suddenly, Bing's massive form vanished from everyone's sight.
In an instant, the old man and the others felt a tremendous energy rapidly descending upon them from above. They all looked up in horror.
