Chapter 808: The Tree of Laws

“It’s indeed a battle pet!”

“It’s also a dragon!”

“An Ascendant State dragon! Shouldn’t it be called a dragon god?”

Everyone at the spot was shocked when the old man revealed his true self and left.

Right after he disappeared, someone instantly took action and led their companions into the vortex.

“Damn it, let’s go there too!”

“Come on, hurry up!”

All the other people followed. The warships and spacecraft carriers at the edge didn’t dare to move just yet, but their engines were already humming, ready to enter after the Star State experts did.

“Let’s hurry up too!” at the front, the young leader said quickly, “All of you, come to my world!”

She opened her hands, and an illusionary world of birds and flowers appeared around her. It was as beautiful as a fairyland!

The deputy leader was the first to enter. He stood in the middle of the beautiful illusion.

The other people quickly followed upon seeing that.

Su Ping had seen the worlds that the Star Lords revealed, but they had belonged to beasts; all were desolate and harsh. Those worlds had cracked soil and erupting volcanoes, completely unsuitable for survival.

Whoosh!

Su Ping and O’Neil both entered the illusionary world.

Su Ping felt that the cosmic radiation had been blocked while inside that world. The coldness of the vacuum disappeared too; the place was extremely warm. He could smell the fragrance of flowers and could also see springs, waterfalls, exotic birds and beasts.

Their leader suddenly moved after everybody entered her world, taking everybody into the vortex at a high speed.

“Humph!”

On the other side—the guys from the Thousand Feathers Alliance also took action. All of them entered one of their Star Lords’ worlds before they jumped into the vortex, moving at dozens of times the speed of sound.

The space inside the vortex was so turbulent that not even the Star Lords dared to use flash movements.

If they did, they might accidentally step into the fifth space or even the sixth space!

The sixth space was dangerous enough for Star Lords; they would hardly have the ability to return once they stepped into it!

Nobody knew what was out there in the deep sixth space.

Probably only Ascendants knew that.

While in the girl’s world, Su Ping and the others could see everything outside while they dashed quickly inside the vortex. The girl was obviously very fast.

Just like a flying phoenix, she traversed a thousand kilometers in the blink of an eye, thanks to an amazing technique!

The ancient divine residence inside the vortex seemed to be close, but it was actually thousands of kilometers away!

That vortex was as large as an entire continent.

Several minutes later, the girl and the other Star Lords finally flew out of the vortex.

In the world behind the vortex—an ancient divine residence stood in the middle of the illusionary clouds and appeared the same size. No matter how further they had pushed, it remained the same size and was covered in a mysterious power.

Underneath the divine residence was a long corridor that was next to a lake of lotuses.

It was more of a sea than a lake, as it was extremely vast.

Many of the lotuses were blossoming. They were clearly unusual; their leaves were almost eight meters in diameter. Vague energy was spreading from the blooming flowers, and the lotus seeds were golden; emitting a divine brilliance!

“A-Are they the ancient divine lotuses?”

“Golden lotus seeds? They must be the Relic Lotuses, aren’t they?”

“Relic Lotuses?”

“Exactly! It’s said that it takes a thousand years for them to bloom, a thousand years to bear fruit, and another thousand years to be enlightened! Three thousand years are required for the Relics Lotus Seeds to be born. They contain an unparalleled level of divine energy and can significantly increase your power of understanding. It can also refine your body. All in all, they’re ultimate treasures!”

“T-There’s this many of them here?”

Seeing the lake of lotuses, everybody was shocked.

The knowledgeable Star State warriors recognized the Relic Lotuses and were thrilled by such a find.

Their trip would be rewarding enough if they could get them!

Immediately after, someone stepped out and flew towards the lake.

“Loot them!”

It was then that a horrifying aura was swept out, and a hideous creature leaped from the bottom of the lake, opened its bloody mouth.

The first person to reach the lotus lake was instantly bitten and dragged to the bottom of the lake.

The other explorers who intended to fight for the treasures were horrified and quickly stopped.

“There’s a monster in the lake!”

“It’s at least in the advanced phase of the Star State!”

“Oh my god, did they leave such a terrifying monster to watch over the lotuses?”

“I noticed that it’s impossible to will the lotuses toward us. There’s a special law inside the lake that blocks my power!”

Many people tried to pull the lotuses with tricks, but all failed, somewhat losing their cool.

The treasure was right in front of their eyes, yet they couldn’t have it.

“Leader!”

Many people who were early and mid Star State members of the In the Alliance of Stars were beseeching their leader.

Before the girl said anything, the deputy had said indifferently, “Let me have a try.”

After that, he immediately flew towards the lotus lake.

A behemoth dashed from the bottom of the lake in response; it had cold, iron scales all over its body and sharp teeth in its mouth.

The deputy snorted and raised his hand, slapping down the monster. A huge tide was raised, splashing everybody, but their astral shields prevented them from getting wet.

The deputy then quickly picked the seeds inside the lake, defeating the incoming behemoths every now and then.

The Star Lords of other alliances also took action; they also used quick moves to pick the seeds in the lake.

“They’re just Relics Lotuses that only work for Star State experts. They would count as snacks for the Star Lords.” The leader ignored the deputy who was picking the seeds and strode on. She was talking to Su Ping and the others, with her usual condescension.

Everybody was at a loss for words, as the girl described such treasures as worthless snacks.

However, they had already witnessed the extravagance of their leader.

The girl nicknamed Divine Lady of the Nine Heavens was said to be part of a powerful background. Was it possible that she did consider such treasures as snacks?

“What’s wrong? Does the Alliance of Stars not want the lotus seeds?”

A young man in white flew close while the girl led Su Ping and the others forward. His clothes weren’t entirely white but had a silver thread at the edge. He looked graceful and attractive.

“Humph. What’s it to you?” snapped the girl while glaring at him.

The young man was the leader of the Thousand Feathers Alliance and had a history with her. They had met again.

“Ha.”

The young man sneered and then sprinted forward into the corridor.

The lotuses here were already valuable enough. Who knew what was behind the corridor? He intended to find out.

However, his expression changed the moment he entered the corridor, as the space in the corridor became chaotic and a strange power of laws was spreading out.

He quickly snapped his fingers and launched a few streams of spiritual auras, destroying that strange power.

“Even this corridor contains a fatal trap.” The young man was slightly cold. He would have been severely injured or even killed if he were merely at the Star State.

“What a weakling!”

By then the girl had already led Su Ping and the others into the corridor. She seemed to have seen it coming; an unusual power of faith surged from inside her body and blocked all the laws.

The scene shocked everyone who had entered her inner world. Vain as the girl might be, she was truly strong.

Nearby—the young man coldly unleashed his power and caught up to the girl.

Bloody battles were bursting out of the lake next to the corridor.

Unlike the people from the alliances, the rogue Star State warriors didn’t care that much. The trip would be worth it if they could take the Relic Lotuses away, even though beasts were lurking in the lake!

Many of them were fighting the strange beasts in the lake, but their battles weren’t as fierce as they were supposed to be, since the power was restricted in that place; they weren’t as destructive as they were in the outside world.

The lake had been dyed due to all the bloodshed, and most of the lotus seeds had been picked!

Those who had failed to acquire the seeds had dragged out the stems of the lotuses, hoping to sell them later.

By then, the deputy leader had picked enough lotuses and caught up to the girl.

There were another seven or so people that were pressing forward with the girl besides the leader of the Thousand Feathers Alliance. All of them were Star Lords from other factions.

“What’s that?”

Behind the corridor was a garden, but most flowers and grass in the garden had withered; there were only a few trees left. Everybody fixed their eyes upon the giant tree at the center of the lake.

The tree was laden with fruits that emitted an ancient and sacred aura.

“Is—Is this the Tree of Laws?” someone exclaimed in shock.
