Martial Master

He was surrounded by flickering black light, wearing a pitch-black and fierce armor that shone brilliantly. The armor bore several deep bite marks, having withstood the attacks from the molten flame creature.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the top-tier expert twisted his body and swiftly dashed out, targeting the Law Fruit on the Law Tree.

"He blocked it!" The crowd rejoiced. This person was a top expert from the Ancient Fang Sect; however, in terms of strength, he only ranked among the top few dozen in the crowd. Yet, with his extraordinary armor, it was evident that he could withstand the molten flame creature’s devouring, which also implied that those stronger than him could do the same.

Whoosh!

In the midst of the crowd's excitement, this person moved at incredible speed, arriving instantly on the central red crystal island, charging towards the Law Tree.

Buzz!

Suddenly, an invisible power of Law struck him. Although he was only a hundred meters away from the Law Tree, he found it impossible to approach it, as if there were an invisible wall blocking his path.

"What’s going on?"

He was taken aback, and the others were equally astonished. To everyone’s eyes, the Ancient Fang Sect expert was clearly only a hundred meters away from the Law Tree. At such a distance, with their strength, they could break through in an instant. Yet, the top expert from the Ancient Fang Sect seemed stuck in a quagmire, unable to move an inch, let alone pluck the Law Fruit.

"It’s the power of Law."

Those like Situ Zhen, with keen insight, instantly grasped the issue.

Surrounding the Law Tree was an endless flow of Law power. To approach the Law Tree and pick the Law Fruit, one had to comprehend a portion of the Law power and withstand the force released by the Law Tree before being able to reach out to pick it.

This was reminiscent of the Rainbow Bridge when they first entered this mysterious continent.

Only by comprehending some of the Law's aura could one stand firm on the Rainbow Bridge to arrive on this continent.

Of course, compared to the extremely faint power of Law on the Rainbow Bridge, the power emitted by the Law Tree was far greater and not easily broken.

Damn! Damn! Damn!

The crowd had initially thought that reaching the Law Tree would allow them to pick the Law Fruit and break through to the Martial Emperor realm, but now, faced with such an obstacle, they felt immensely frustrated.

Yet, no matter how frustrated they were, they still had to charge forward. Compared to the Law Fruit, any difficulty had to be overcome.

"Charge!"

In their fury, one expert after another landed on the crystal island. Indeed, as soon as they landed, it felt as if a great mountain was pressing down on them, making it difficult to breathe.

Qin Chen also mixed in with the crowd, breaking through the blockade of molten flame creatures, and with a whoosh, landed on the crystal island.

Beside him, Ouyang Nana also landed and unexpectedly glanced at Qin Chen.

"Hmph, didn’t expect your strength to be decent; you can make it here too?" Ouyang Nana said, somewhat surprised.

"If you can make it here, why can’t I?" Qin Chen replied with a vague smile, his gaze glancing towards Piao Miao Palace.

At that moment, the people from Piao Miao Palace also swept in, but the leader in black remained in place, showing no intention of competing for the Law Fruit.

"What exactly are these guys up to?" Qin Chen was puzzled.

They had led them here secretly, which was clearly not to allow them to obtain the Law Fruit. Yet so far, the other side had made no moves at all. How long would they have to wait?

Though confused, Qin Chen’s eyes remained fixed on the Law Tree, for he was certain that regardless of what the other side's plot was, the Law Fruit in front of him was indeed real.

"Let’s not worry about that for now; comprehending the power of Law is the key. As long as we get the Law Fruit, Situ Zhen and the others can break through to the Martial Emperor. No matter what their scheme is, it will be enough to handle it."
