Yang Ruolan was burning with anxiety, while Chu Feiling was equally tormented.
Just when they were about to reunite as a family, such a major incident occurred!
In this large-scale battle, lives were treated like child's play; the dangers were extremely high! Even a lord-level imperial level expert could fall in such a conflict!
How could Chu King of Hell have carelessly involved himself in such a huge storm?
The Stone Family from the upper three heavens could hardly be contended by a family from the middle three heavens. Wasn't this courting death?
Who lured our son into this?
The couple was both furious and anxious, wishing they could sprout wings and rush over to fight alongside their son or drag him out.
Of course, they were unaware that this battle was actually orchestrated by their son himself, who initiated and plotted everything, and would ultimately decide the outcome...
As for the abduction, it was their son who had lured others into this situation; to sum it up, it was Chu King of Hell who was the true culprit!
But in their parents' eyes, their son was naturally honest, kind-hearted, adorable, obedient, and well-behaved...
Especially in Yang Ruolan's heart, her son seemed not much older than her grandson; just a tender, rosy little child—how could he stir up such a storm? How could he participate in such a grand affair without being manipulated?
Thus, they were determined to rescue their son from the sea of suffering!
After the couple sprinted desperately for three hundred miles, they finally remembered to buy two horses.
They immediately purchased the horses at a high price and galloped at full speed towards Desperate Lake.
Urgent as they were, the distance to Desperate Lake was still over ten thousand miles, which could not possibly be covered in just a few days. Even if the couple rushed like fire, traveling day and night at top speed, it would still take them at least five days to reach Desperate Lake!
Five days... how long that felt for a life-and-death battle that could happen at any moment!
While frantically urging the horses on, Yang Ruolan felt guilty.
If only she had left with her master and Wu Qianqian at that time! They would have just made it!
But she couldn’t bear to leave without attending her grandson's full-month celebration, delaying their departure by a few days.
Little did she expect that such a huge event would occur in those few days!
The mountain stood tall, piercing into the clouds!
This was Heavenly Sword Peak!
It had always been a battleground that divided life and death!
This peak was said to be ten thousand feet high, but after the battle between Morning Breeze Supreme and Flowing Cloud Supreme, the upper half of the mountain had vanished, leaving behind a massive flatland at five thousand feet high!
Smooth as a mirror, as far as the eye could see, there were no undulations at all.
Moreover, for thousands of years, not a single blade of grass had grown on the mountain; it was as solid as a giant iron block.
At the center of this plain was a large lake, so vast it was nearly a hundred feet across, its surface as smooth as a mirror, with wisps of green mist rising.
In the middle of the lake was an island—Life and Death Island!
Legend had it that this lake was formed when Morning Breeze Supreme and Flowing Cloud Supreme were locked in fierce battle; with a single punch, Flowing Cloud Supreme created this massive hole, connecting to the underground hot spring, thus forming the vast lake!
Moreover, the entire lake was a hot spring! Steam was rising everywhere!
Here, five thousand feet high, surrounded by snow and cold, there was a steaming hot spring lake in the middle, a wondrous sight.
Of course, there was still not a trace of life by the lake; not even a single blade of grass. Whether there were creatures in the water was unknown.
During the battle between the two Supremes, their divine power compressed the entire mountain, turning flowers, trees, and even seed roots into powder! Additionally, the height of this place meant that even if a storm arose, seeds couldn’t be brought here, making it a death zone recognized for thousands of years!
