Chapter 469 - 330: Crossing the Lake in the Flesh, Competing for the Treasure Tablet!

After the commotion caused by the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman and Songg Yuyang, everyone had a general understanding of the affairs within the Treasure Burial Lake.

At the moment, no one spoke further. Once the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman had restored his mana, everyone again infused their mana into the Treasure Boat, which then slowly started, the Cyan Fire Barrier blazing brightly, as it continued to sail deeper into the Treasure Burial Lake.

Before long, the Treasure Boat crossed over the array hub and was once again enveloped by the Yin Evil and a teeming mass of Soldier Souls.

Woo woo woo!

The wind howled, carrying a soul-piercing power, and the entire lake was shrouded in darkness, with only the cyan fire of the Yin Crossing Treasure Boat illuminating a portion of the sky and earth.

Occasionally, scattered Soldier Souls broke through the Cyan Fire Barrier to attack the crowd, but they were all slain.

After another incense stick of time had passed, the Soldier Souls gradually dispersed, the lake surface ahead cleared again, and another array hub appeared, with a cluster of treasure light within, dazzlingly brilliant and captivating.

"Rumble!"

As if triggered by a switch, the Evil-avoiding Magical Pillar, which had originally been retracted into the boat after leaving the array hub, emerged again with a thunderous roar on the Yin Crossing Treasure Boat.

It seemed to be telling everyone that it was once again time to "collect the treasure".

The Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman glanced at the Evil-avoiding Magical Pillar, his eyes somewhat gloomy, his body motionless.

Gua Daoist grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, looking at the people on the boat, but he himself did not move.

The burly man with luxuriant whiskers seemed to have been moved in his heart, but after glancing at Songg Yuyang, he dared not act.

Clearly, the Thunder Flood Dragon’s previous experience left them in lingering fear, deterring any reckless actions.

The white-haired youth, on the other hand, merely touched the "wreath" on his wrist, remaining silent.

"Since that’s the case, let me wade through this muddy water for everyone, but let me say in advance, if I obtain a fortuitous encounter, none of you can renege, or else don’t blame me for being merciless!"

Songg Yuyang saw the situation, chuckled, and glanced around before speaking to everyone.

Gu Yuan heard this and made no comment.

He had an Exotic Treasure on him, allowing him to know in advance all the fortuitous encounters, and none present could match his confidence. He had no need to concern himself with competing against Songg Yuyang.

Everything was futile, just a pawn at my horse’s head.

"Fellow Daoist, by all means, none of us will object!"

Gua Daoist chuckled, patting his chest in assurance.

Songg Yuyang, hearing this, took a deep look at Gua Daoist.

This Daoist, renowned for his Divination Technique, remained as steady as a mountain, never having made a move; he must have known something yet never disclosed it.

However, with great skill comes great courage.

Songg Yuyang did not waste any more words, taking a step forward onto the Evil-avoiding Spiritual Pillar.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the Golden Magical Robe coalesced and enveloped Songg Yuyang.

In the span of a few breaths.

The result was instantly clear.

Songg Yuyang, wearing the Magical Robe, truly seemed like a golden divine spirit, unstoppable; any Soldier Soul that attacked was swiftly obliterated.

"Boom!"

Within the treasure light, as expected, was another evil being, an Evil Artifact that had given birth to an Artifact Soul, with its overpowering Evil Qi coupled with the might of a High-grade Treasure, attacking Songg Yuyang.

Yet Songg Yuyang gestured gracefully, Spiritual Light surging, and within a few breaths, he forcibly subdued the Artifact.

"Boom!"

But just as he was about to succeed, another colossal roar echoed through the lake, stirring up towering waves.

A few breaths later, Songg Yuyang sighed and returned to the Treasure Boat.

After a moment of silence, the Treasure Boat set sail again, heading toward the center of the lake.

Soon enough, they arrived at another array hub.

The Evil-avoiding Magical Pillar thundered back out, but no one moved.

Gua Daoist chuckled and asked around, "Fellow Daoists, does anyone want to give it a try?"

No one responded.

The Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman and the burly man with luxuriant whiskers dared not act, Gu Yuan was aware of the truth, and for some reason, neither Songg Yuyang nor the white-haired youth spoke up.

"Then let’s go!"

Seeing this, Gua Daoist was not surprised, immediately calling out, and everyone then stimulated their mana, passing this array hub and continuing inward toward the lake.

In this way, they passed through two more array hubs, with no one speaking up.

Soon, the Yin Crossing Treasure Boat reached the fifth array hub.

The lake surface opened up, treasure light flickered, and another "opportunity" presented itself, tempting everyone.

Gua Daoist, resembling a captain, spoke again, "Fellow Daoists, does anyone want to enter the array hub for a try?"

No one made a sound.

Then Gua Daoist suddenly chuckled and said, "In that case, let this old Daoist wade through this muddy water for everyone, but let me say first, if I obtain an opportunity, none of you may renege!"

At these words, the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman and the burly man with luxuriant whiskers immediately looked over, their eyes filled with suspicion and uncertainty.

This old Daoist, who hadn’t made a move in the previous four times, suddenly wanted to act this time—had he received information that this array hub contained fortuitous opportunities?

But the old Daoist paid no heed to these two, merely quietly observing the white-haired youth and Gu Yuan.

The white-haired youth touched the "wreath" in his hand, remaining silent.

Gu Yuan still did not speak, closing his eyes to rest.

Seeing this, Gua Daoist’s eyes rolled, and he suddenly clutched his stomach, exclaiming, "Not good, not good, this old Daoist is having stomach cramps, I fear I’m too weak to fight, never mind!"

"Hmm?!!"

These words left the Thunder Flood Dragon Strongman and the burly man with luxuriant whiskers shocked, staring incredulously at the old Daoist.

A Golden Core Cultivator, unable to fight due to a stomach ache?

Even a female Golden Core, on the day of childbirth, possesses boundless combat power.

What a poor excuse!

Songg Yuyang, however, shifted his gaze between Gua Daoist, the white-haired youth, and Gu Yuan, then closed his eyes, saying no more.

By this point, even the slowest person understood.

The three on the boat must have long since come to know the truth of the "opportunity" within.
