Chapter 342 - Battle On The Lake Part 3

Many of those poor disciples, were shot many times over, instantly dropping dead inside the lake. The elders gritted their teeth and pushed their aura to the limit, but even though they were giving their all, Yushui's cultivation base was on another level and they couldn't contend with that.

The elders suffered many injuries, but were ultimately able to resist. However, their formation was thoroughly broken and all the twenty disciples supporting them in that battle, had already perished.

The Eleventh Palace Master easily opened a path to the purple pillar that was poisoning the water and before the three elders could recover a bit of their energies, she swiftly dashed towards that pillar.

However, just as she approached it, Yushui felt like she was falling into a trap. There was something screaming the word "danger" inside of her, so not waiting for another second, she activated one of her strongest evasive moves.

Palace Master Yushui's body transformed into water particles, joining together with the lake water and disappearing from the area where she was.

At that exact instant, a purple lightning dropped from the heavens, bringing the figure of the Grand Elder Chuanli. That lightning, had stricken the exact place where Palace Master Yushui was standing a few seconds ago. If she were to stay, she would have suffered a grave injury.

"Grand Elder!"

"Grand Elder, you've come to help us!"

The elders swiftly regrouped by his side, telling him about the whole situation.

The Eleventh Palace Master's body was nowhere to be found, but the Grand Elder Chuanli had his guard up all the time.

While those battles were simultaneously happening, the purple eye high up in the sky kept observing everything. However, it was not particularly interested in any of those battles, but something else.

The Lake Mother noticed it, but she was dealing with a strange purple fog that was ceaselessly attacking her and couldn't do anything about that orb. The purple fog was being controlled by the Sanctuary Master, moving quickly through the area and coming down at her whenever she exposed a flaw in her moves.

Suddenly, the Sanctuary Master made a motion with his left hand and another flexible cloud of purple fog surged, it went after the Lake Mother as well, trying to get her from behind, from a blind spot.

"Tch... Do you think this is going to be enough? Na?ve!"

The Lake Mother drew more power from the formation and right when those two flexible big clouds of purple smoke were about to enter in contact with her body, she extended her arms and each one of her hands physically blocked those clouds.

However, right at the moment they entered in contact, two huge water bubbles formed at the point of contact, swiftly expanding and completely enveloping those purple clouds inside of them.

After she had nullified the Sanctuary Master's attacks, her old body dashed towards him like a lightning bolt. Her speed was definitely not a speed an old woman should be displaying, but she wasn't a Mana Sovereign entity just for show. Her aura thoroughly pressured the Sanctuary Master and her battling intent soared through the skies.

The Sanctuary Master prepared his body and energy for a defensive measure, going as far as spending his Mana in order to better prepare for that. But he suddenly felt all the pressure the Lake Mother was releasing, completely leaving from his body and moving elsewhere.

When he realized what the Lake Mother was trying to do, he couldn't help but panic.

The Lake Mother swiftly retracted her pressure and released her aura towards the sky, where there was a purple orb observing everything. She didn't know how and why, but she felt threatened by that ancient item and decided it was even more dangerous than the Sanctuary Master.

Her aura concentrated on that orb and the water element around her body and beneath her feet started to act furiously. It was like it was trying to riot against the lake itself.

The Lake Mother infused a lot of Mana in her next strike, before shouting empowering words.

"Soaring Flood Dragon!"

Suddenly all the water around the area she was standing, joined together and soared upwards with ferocity. A draconic head swiftly formed, carrying the Lake Mother's figure towards that purple ancient orb. She wanted to destroy it in a single and rapid attack.

ROAR!

The flood dragon roared and a column of water lifted that gigantic draconic head all the way up to the skies.

Every single practitioner fighting in that lake, stopped briefly. They were able to see and feel the power behind that ferocious beast.

The heavy rain was still pouring down and it increased the force behind that ability as well, bring it to new heights.

A huge dragon got dangerously close to that ancient orb, rapidly swallowing it inside its mouth. At that exact moment, the Lake Mother also struck down with her palms, but unfortunately, nothing went as she had expected.

BANG!

When her hands collided against the orb, the power brought by her Mana Sovereign attack, did nothing to that ancient item. The flood dragon went totally past that item as well, but it resulted in nothing.

That ancient weapon had withstood the attack of a Mana Sovereign entity, increasing the fear the Lake Mother was feeling of it, even more.

Right at that moment, when the Lake Mother was in a state of shock, the Sanctuary Master's body suddenly appeared beside her, like he was a traceless drifting smoke.

"You're the one being na?ve here, Lake Mother."

His hands were already carrying a heavy purple energy, that was even generating ethereal particles from his bloodline powers.

The Lake Mother could only try drawing more power from the formation in order to resist his strike, but when his fist connected to her body, all that power swiftly dispersed, like it was all but an illusion.

Bang!

The Lake Mother's body was sent down towards the lake, heavily impacting against the deepest parts of it.
