The Nine Cauldrons

Chapter 16 Heavenly Flooded Palace

As the thirteen innate experts advanced beneath the water, they encountered two demonic beasts. One of the demonic beasts fled rapidly, while the other wanted to attack stealthily but was killed by Gu Yong. Teng Qingshan did not know the name of this demonic beast…… but it didn’t seem very strong.

“The difference between demonic beasts is great as well,” Teng Qingshan remarked and sighed emotionally.

Just like the unevolved Red Scaled Beast, the Darksteel Centipede, and the Steel Arms Monkey, their strength was equal to the experts of the Earthly Ranking, even slightly stronger.

However, the evolved Red Scaled Beast, the Steel Arms Monkey, and the fish-like demonic beast could be considered to be at the level of Emptiness Dan of the Innate Realm and True Dan of the Innate Realm.

As for the Steel Arms Monkey King and the Iron String Blade Snake, they could be compared to the Golden Dan Innate Experts.

The Purple Radiant Flood Dragon was even stronger than Golden Dan Innate Experts. Perhaps only the famous figures ranked at the top of the 《Heavenly Ranking》 could fight the Purple Radiant Flood Dragon.

……

Some species of wild animals were born physically stronger than humans, even if in they lived in the same environment. Just as powerful figures were born among humans in lands abundantly filled with the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth, so were powerful beings born among wild animals. The powerful ones among the wild animals were demonic beasts! These demonic beasts could reach incredible levels if they had intelligence. Of course…

Demonic beasts and humans were still different. Humans had Emperor Yu, Heavenly Emperor Qin Ling, Martial Ancestor Shiga, Poetic Sword God Li Taibai who were unbeatable entities. Even though there were extremely terrifying powerful beings among the demonic beasts, they were slightly inferior to Emperor Yu and the others.

“Island Lord, what is that ahead?!”

After advancing underwater for one hour, the thirteen innate experts of Qing Hu Island had suddenly found a section of a building under the water! Because it was pitch-black, the innate experts could only scrutinize it through the glow of the Innate True Origin. However, even with the glow of all thirteen innate experts, they could only see an overall area of ten Zhang.

Within that area of ten Zhang…

Under the water, a building with the height of two Zhang and of an unknown length appeared before their eyes. The surface of the building was covered with mud and aquatic weeds.

“Let me see,” Zhao Danchen said and walked over to it.

With a wave of his hand, a gold-colored Innate True Origin flew out of his hand and hit the building’s surface like a spread-out fan. As soon as it touched the surface, an explosion occurred!

“Rumble~~~” A deep sound resounded repeatedly.

The mud covering the surface of the building was blasted away by the explosion of the Innate True Origin. Immediately, the water in the surroundings became muddy. In the midst of this muddy water, the thirteen innate experts of Qing Hu Island approached and scrutinized the building’s surface.

“What is this material? An azure green wall?”

The thirteen innate experts of Qing Hu Island stared in amazement.

“This is incredible! After so many years of withstanding the great water pressure, the wall doesn’t have even one blemish!”

“Island Lord, look! This entire wall is one whole piece! It wasn’t built brick by brick.”

“How is that possible?!”

“The nearly ten-Zhang wide wall before our eyes is one piece! This azure wall? It’s not rock or iron…. What is it?”

“This… this must be Emperor Yu’s Palace! It must be it!”

Just this wall by itself shocked the thirteen innate experts.They had never seen such a material in any of the Nine Prefectures of the great land.

“Quick! Search for the entrance of this palace.” The thirteen innate experts immediately advanced along the wall. When the thirteen people left, Teng Qingshan also came before the wall.

“Emperor Yu’s Palace?” Teng Qingshan scrutinized the wall carefully and even touched it. The wall was smooth and icy cold to the touch.

It’s as smooth as the ceramic tiles in my previous life. The weirdest thing is…..the entire wall is a whole, without even one crevice, Teng Qingshan thought as he scanned the top of the palace under water. Also, Zhao Danchen’s Innate True Origin actually didn’t even leave a mark on the surface.

Teng Qingshan felt that it was incredible.
