Seven Tones Palace!
That was the name of the ancient palace. The place where this palace was discovered was a dangerous place. It was the Wintry Pond between the Cang Family and the Yin Family's territories.
This Wintry Pond contained Wintry True Water. An average martial artist would be turned into an ice sculpture after staying there for a few incense sticks' worth of time, unable to move.
Moreover, the Wintry Pond was bottomless. Even warriors at the peak of the Fourth Tribulation didn't dare to go to the deepest part.
There were also Lords who went down to investigate but didn't find anything.
Until a few years ago, for some reason, a palace floated up. After this palace was discovered, people immediately wanted to go in and steal the treasures. However, they couldn't break the divine patterns inside.
News spread quickly. The Cang Family and the Yin Family both sent people over, including the Yin Family Leader. However, they couldn't break the divine patterns immediately.
Even Lords couldn't break it. Needless to say, this palace was very powerful.
Three words were engraved on the palace — Seven Tones Palace.
Although it was written in ancient characters, it was easily found.
Then, the two families looked through the information and found out the owner of this palace.
Seven Tones Goddess. According to the ancient records, she was the daughter of a Saint Emperor.
Although she wasn't very powerful and didn't have many records in the history books, she attracted the attention of the two families.
Because this was the palace of the Saint Emperor's daughter, other super forces didn't intervene. If it was the Saint Emperor's palace, even the emperors of the Chilly Winter Continent would fight for it.
After fighting for a few years, people from both sides kept thinking of ways to break the divine patterns. Finally, a corner of the palace was blasted open.
The experts from both sides wanted to rush in immediately. However, they were immediately repelled by the divine patterns. The entire palace shook violently. It seemed like it would explode at any time.
The experts from both sides didn't dare to act recklessly. They immediately retreated. Then, they agreed to let the younger generation enter. Both sides also stopped fighting for the time being.
After all, weren't they fighting for the treasures inside?
As long as they could get the treasures, why fight and kill people?
The younger generation entering could not only gain experience but also allow the younger generation from both sides to compete for supremacy.
Whether they were dragons or insects, they had to go through the baptism of cruel war to know. Only fighting could make them grow quickly.
Both sides came back to gather the elites of the younger generation, and agreed that each side could send a hundred people in. Three months later, they would enter together, and each side would rely on their own abilities to survive inside and fight for the treasures.
When Yin Ruolan came back, she went to see Patriarch Six. The Crippled Zen Master asked Yin Ruolan to bring Lu Li with her, claiming that Lu Li could increase their chances of winning.
In fact!
Yin Ruolan was not convinced by the Crippled Zen Master's words. Lu Li had a Phantom King and several Wind Warcraft and he once killed a warrior of the fourth tribulation. Even so, Yin Ruolan did not recognize Lu Li's abilities.
Maybe when Lu Li was at the Second Heaven, he was too weak. Not many years had passed.
Even though Lu Li could tame the Phantom King and the Wind Warcraft, Yin Ruolan believed it was good enough that he could be compared with a warrior at the initial stage of the fourth tribulation. So what if he was at the middle stage of the fourth tribulation?
Yin Ruolan was in the middle stage of the Fourth Tribulation, but her overall combat power was comparable to the late stage of the Fourth Tribulation. Therefore, when the Crippled Zen Master said that, Yin Ruolan was not convinced.
That being said, she dared not to disobey the Crippled Zen Master so she came to invite Lu Li at once.
"En!"
Lu Li nodded after hearing the whole story and said, "In three months, right?
Then I will cultivate for another two and a half months. Call me when it's time to go. "
Lu Li was on the verge of achieving initial success in the Dragon Manipulation Skill, which could increase his abilities by 10 times. He must seize every second.
Since the Hall of Seven Notes was the palace of the daughter of Saint King, it must be full of dangers. If he could achieve initial success in the Dragon Manipulation Skill, he would have more chances to survive and he could contribute more to the Yin Family.
"Okay!"
Yin Ruolan nodded and said, "Patriarch Six said that if you can get any rare treasures in there, you can keep them if you get them alone. If you contribute, you will be compensated according to the proportion of your contribution."
"That's easy. We are all on the same side!"
Lu Li smiled. The Crippled Zen Master had helped him so much and he was indebted to him. Now, Lu Li was given many resources and so was Qin Zhan and Gan Lin. It was not a big deal for Lu Li to do something for the Yin Family.
Lu Li went back to closed-door cultivation while Yin Ruolan went to see the Family Patriarch of the Yin Family. This was a very important matter. If they could get some treasures or ancient skills, then the Yin Family would soar.
Especially the ancient skills. If there were skills passed down by Saint King to his daughter, then they would be making a fortune.
This time, it was not only the Yin Family but also some super families of the alliance. It was not just two families but two alliances that were going to fight.
Of course, they were going to fight not only because the Yin Family and the Cang Family were powerful, but also because they wanted a piece of the cake.
There were only 100 people going in. Naturally, the distribution of people had to be careful. If there were problems with people, they might be killed or even wiped out.
If they couldn't get any treasures, they would suffer a great loss.
The families had a discussion and it was decided that the Yin Family would send 50 people and the other families would send 50 together.
All the families would choose the most powerful warrior of the young generation and they would be rewarded with treasures and they would try their best.
After the discussion was over, the people of each family went back to make their own arrangements.
This treasure hunt wasn't just a matter for the younger generation. More arrangements and arrangements were needed. Otherwise, what if the younger generation were all killed in an instant?
Everyone agreed that in two and a half months, the young generation would gather at the Broken Sword Mountain and open the space gates. When the time was up, the 100 people would go to the Hall of Seven Tones.
During this time, there was no war at the Hall of Seven Tones. Both sides sent powerful warriors to guard nearby to prevent the other side from secretly sending someone in first.
The entire Broken Sword Mountain was quite lively during these days. The young generation of the Yin Family were eager to have a try. Some young masters even asked their fathers to get a place to go …
This was the biggest event for dozens of nearby territories. Naturally, the young generation didn't want to miss it.
After more than a month, Qin Zhan and Gan Lin came out from closed-door cultivation. They were looking forward to the news, especially when they learned that Lu Li would go as well.
But they knew their limits. Even if they did, they wouldn't be qualified to go, let alone that they hadn't reached the fourth tribulation.
The minimum requirement to go to the Hall of Seven Tones was the fourth tribulation. Average warriors at the initial stage of the fourth tribulation would not be qualified. Qin Zhan and the others had seen more than hundreds of young warriors at the fourth tribulation of the Yin Family …
Two months later, the name list came out. As expected, many people were on it. Everyone knew how powerful the young generation of the nearby families were.
But there was one name that shocked many people — Lu Li!
The Yin Family didn't mind. They knew that Lu Li was mysterious, valued by Patriarch Six, and was appointed as an honorary patriarch of the Yin Family.
Therefore, they could accept that Lu Li could go in.
But the other families knew nothing about Lu Li, especially when his surname was Lu. There was no powerful warrior with the surname Lu in the Yin Family.
What surprised more young masters and young ladies was that after half a month, all 99 young masters and young ladies had gathered and were ready to go. But Lu Li didn't show up.
Yin Ruolan went to the palace where Lu Li lived and triggered the Inhibition Formation, but Lu Li didn't show up.
When the information was sent, the Family Patriarch of the Yin Family made a decision to wait for Lu Li for five days. If Lu Li didn't come out from closed-door cultivation in five days, someone else would go in.
