"Good disciple, hurry up and go. Once you secure the treasure up there, your master will surely reward you handsomely. That [Infant Transformation Elixir] I promised before will definitely be yours."
Seeing this sight, Shi Hai True Monarch grew thrilled at once, offering incentives since he'd been shielding Lu Quanzhen throughout.
"Young one, my island holds a Heavenly Infant Fruit that ripens in a century. When it's ready, I'll hand it over to you. This fruit serves not just as the key component for the [Infant Transformation Elixir] but can also be eaten straight away. As the premier Nascent Soul Spiritual Object, it boosts Nascent Soul Quality!"
Nearby, Wugu Old Demon chimed in temptingly to Lu Quanzhen, painting a grand vision.
Though he'd picked up the Kunpeng Demon Technique, it was only partial chapters with a handful of Divine Ability Techniques, far from full mastery.
Even if he could imitate some aspects of the Kunpeng Demon Technique, he wouldn't dare approach, uncertain about potential hazards at the altar.
"Two seniors, a secret technique earlier left me weakened. Without knowing the risks the altar might hold, could you lend me some protective treasures? Otherwise, I feel deeply uneasy."
Lu Quanzhen eyed the altar and spoke with a troubled look.
He wasn't sure if the altar posed dangers.
But removing the treasure from the altar would surely spark a Nascent Soul clash right here!Whether Shi Hai True Monarch and Wugu Old Demon would still guard him remained unknown, yet escaping alive from the Secret Realm appeared challenging.
This moment was perfect for requesting items that could aid in the impending fight, boosting his chances of survival.
Shi Hai True Monarch and Wugu Old Demon both sensed some irritation.
They'd already supplied Lu Quanzhen with several protective treasures, but he was bold enough to demand even more now.
Still, neither held back at this juncture, each providing an additional Secret Treasure.
"Two seniors, that secret technique disrupted my Qi and Blood Magical Power earlier. These Secret Treasures are hard for me to trigger. Do you possess a Fourth Rank Puppet, Talisman, or True Treasure?"
Regarding the prior gifts like the Wuling Ring, Lu Quanzhen stayed extremely wary.
If he managed to flee successfully, he'd hurl all such treasures into the ocean without delay.
Therefore, over Magical Treasures or Exotic Treasures, he favored Puppets, Talismans, or True Treasures.
"Kid, don't overstep."
Wugu Old Demon uttered coldly, seeing right through Lu Quanzhen's schemes.
This youth was clever, clearly setting up an escape strategy.
While they did have Fourth Rank Talismans, their numbers were limited, and they needed them for the fight ahead.
"I just want to survive."
Lu Quanzhen replied with a grave face.
"Here's a Fourth Rank [Golden Light Indestructible Talisman], capable of blocking a Nascent Soul Technique."
"This [Spirit Void Rejuvenation Pill] will swiftly heal your wounds."
Shi Hai True Monarch stated with a kind smile, passing a Fourth Rank Talisman and an Elixir to Lu Quanzhen.
Witnessing this, Wugu Old Demon pulled a Fourth Rank Talisman from his Storage Ring and handed it over to Lu Quanzhen as well.
After gulping down the elixir and gripping the two talismans, Lu Quanzhen drew a deep breath before heading toward the altar.
As he neared the altar, his "Kunpeng Devouring Heaven Demon God Technique" activated on instinct, and he crossed an unseen light barrier, advancing steadily.
He proceeded with great care, disregarding the impatient looks from Shi Hai True Monarch and Wugu Old Demon, letting those in front scout ahead.
"After grabbing a rare item later, perhaps I can ask one of the onlookers to safeguard me."
Lu Quanzhen schemed inwardly, harboring no faith in Shi Hai True Monarch or Wugu Old Demon, aiming to secure a pledge from a Nascent Soul True Lord.
Regrettably, in the Starry Sky Sea, alignments of good or evil blurred, and he held no knowledge of Nascent Soul Cultivators, unable to judge reliability.
Moments ticked by slowly, and events unfolded in an utterly unforeseen way.
All cultivators who practiced Kunpeng Demon Techniques ascended to the altar's peak without incident.
Atop the altar lay assorted priceless treasures: the vibrant red, translucent, aromatic Vermilion Fruit; the Treasure Fan radiating five hues of light; the Ancient Tripod swirling with golden Dragon Energy; the Bone Talisman pulsing with Yin Yang Energies; Porcelain Bottles brimming with Elixirs and Essence Blood...
Right then, everyone who had climbed up brimmed with excitement, staring at the riches in front of them.
"Good disciple, move fast!"
Shi Hai True Monarch and the rest below shouted urgently, desperate to charge up the altar themselves.
However, those around Lu Quanzhen shared wary glances.
"We're all forced into this, so why clash? Plenty of treasures for everyone to pick."
A demonic technique cultivator suggested.
"Yes, just select different ones."
They aimed to divide the spoils, yet no one acted, fearing that any motion could activate the altar's restrictions and invite peril.
But with the pressure from below, at last, a long-haired woman with a icy demeanor reached out, targeting the Ancient Tripod aglow with golden Dragon Energy, and seized it using Mana.
No reaction followed, igniting an immediate scramble.
At that, Lu Quanzhen surged forward too, fixing his gaze on the Bone Talisman gleaming with five-colored radiance and a vial of elixir.
For one, among the group, he stood at the Initial Stage of Core Formation, short on strength to compete.
For another, the Bone Talisman and Elixir promised great utility, perfect for fleeing and staying alive!
Yet as the group vied for the treasures, the altar shook fiercely all of a sudden, golden brilliance and dark glows streaking the sky like a massive Kunpeng phantom.
Then, a black hole materialized at the altar's location, emitting "woo woo woo" sounds akin to demonic roars and wails, chilling and dreadful!
"What's going on!"
All grew terrified, but Lu Quanzhen and the others had no chance to ponder, getting pulled into the altar's black hole in a flash.
The black hole stretched endlessly into darkness; Lu Quanzhen and companions plunged deeper, their Core Formation-level Mana powerless to resist.
