"Look, it's a palace," one of the Tiger Continent's self-cultivators shouted, his finger pointing straight ahead.
Everyone turned their heads towards the same direction; sure enough, there was a white palace, exuding a powerful energy of life.
"My gosh, this is the palace of the God of Life. I never thought that I would have the chance to see it for myself."
"This is a miracle - I thought that the palace of the God of Life was just a myth, but it isn't."
"I swear that the Spring of Life is inside the palace."
The self-cultivators discussed amongst themselves passionately.
Qingfeng Li's face reddened with excitement; after this long and arduous search, at last, they found where the Spring of Life was hidden.
He looked at the giant palace: elegant and solemn, made of meteors and crystals.
A beautiful statue of the God of Life stood by the doors of the palace; more than ten meters tall, it was beyond majestic.
The God of Life was well known in the Tiger Continent as one of the Sky Gods that created the heavens and earth. Not many had seen her in person, but most have seen her statue. However, the statue right before them was very different from the ones they've usually seen.
When the God of Life was younger, she practiced self-cultivation on the Mountain of the Snow God, and she lived here during that period of time.
Eyes red with anxiety, the Tiger Continent's self-cultivators began charging towards the palace.
"Boss, let's head in too, we need to snatch the Spring of Life before the others do," Daoist said with a frown on his face.
Qingfeng Li shook his head and stopped the others, "Just wait."
Confused, everyone from the Wolf Fang Team turned their heads towards Qingfeng Li;
They needed the Spring of Life to save Xue Lin, so why was he stopping them?
"This palace is dangerous, I just felt a horrifying energy." Qingfeng Li said with a serious expression.
Upon hearing this, Black Puppy nodded in agreement, "You're right, there's something dangerous in there."
Not only did Qingfeng Li and Black Puppy feel it, but Sky-Devouring Snake and the Cat of Fate also did too. As extremely powerful creatures, they were all highly sensitive to danger.
It wasn't until everyone entered the palace did Qingfeng Li begin walking in as well. They trailed behind the others, so they could escape at the first sign of trouble.
It was truly an enormous palace, decorated exquisitely with white pearls and crystals - a few night pearls hung from the walls, shining luminously.
Each night pearl was the size of a fist, making everyone who laid eyes on them sigh in awe.
Some even stuck out their hand and tried to take the night pearls, but the pearls conjured a streak of white light, deflecting them in a flash. A powerful protective array was placed on the night pearls to target potential thieves from stealing them.
All the treasures within the palace were protected by an array formation; no one could take anything, no matter how much they wanted to, leaving people were shocked and angry.
The group continued walking forward until they reached a grand hall - the hall was spacious, around 10,000 square meters in size.
A white spring stood in the center of the grand hall; only some water was contained in the spring, but it exuded a strong energy of life. Upon smelling the waters, people felt relaxed and energized.
They began charging at the Spring - this was the legendary Spring of Life.
The fastest of them all was a self-cultivator with long hair, who possessed god level movement techniques. Soaring across the ceiling, he landed beside the Spring in a heartbeat.
However, before anyone had the chance to react, a giant hand that contained horrific power flew out of nowhere and slammed the self-cultivator to death.
Shocked at his death, it wasn't until then that until people realized there were two people standing by the Spring of Life.
Prior to this, everyone was so focused on the Spring of Life.
Technically, they weren't people: the one on the right had dark skin, black fur, and a single black horn on his head.
If you look closely, you'll realize that this one-horned creature was actually a devil from hell.
Camilla and Qingfeng Li's expression changed at the sight of them - this devil was the one Qingfeng Li injured from before. He had burnt off one of the devil's arms with Golden Flames, but it grew back.
Across from the one-horned devil stood a man in white; he had a pair of white wings and a handsome face that was cold and arrogant.
His wings were as white, if not purer and whiter, like a swan.
An angel?
Qingfeng Li furrowed his eyebrows in surprise, he never thought that he'd be able to see an angel at a place like this.
Angels were legendary creatures of myth that only existed in heaven, and seeing one on Earth was a truly amazing sight.
Everyone around Qingfeng Li was shocked as well - as the Tiger Continent's self-cultivators, it was a given that they would know about devils and angels.
They possessed great respect towards the angel and great horror towards the devil.
The self-cultivator killed by the one-horned devil had vanished completely; he wasn't even left with a body.
"One-horned devil, the Spring of Life is mine," Tte two-winged angel scoffed arrogantly at the devil.
The God of Life belonged to heaven, so naturally, her treasure, the Spring of Life, belonged to heaven as well.
The people around them began retreating at the sight of them arguing - although the Spring of Life was valuable, it was not as valuable as their lives. No one wanted to stand at the crossfire of the angel and devil's fight for the Spring of Life.
Qingfeng Li retreated as well - he could feel the power of the angel and devil, as they were a lot more powerful than himself. Qingfeng Li knew that he might not be able to defeat them.
Swoosh!
The one-horned devil waved his fist, which turned into a black fist shadow, hurling himself at the two-winged angel.
This black fist was extremely powerful. Tearing up space and air, it created a giant, horrific hole.
The two-winged angel would not admit defeat; he swung his fist as well, creating a giant white fist shadow, exuding a power that could shake the heavens and earth.
When the two fist shadows clashed, it created a giant bang that shook everyone and everything around them.
Thankfully, the palace of the God of Life was protected by a powerful array, or else it would have blown up to pieces
