<h4>Chapter 1093: Too Late</h4>


    With the array activated, the blue oil paper umbre above the altar began to elerate in its revolution, and the pond on its surface began to sway violently as if it were enduring a fierce storm.


    It was as if water were threatening to ssh out of the edges of the umbre, and the dozen or so koi fish in the pond also began to move over the surface of the umbre, leaving golden trails in their wake.


    At the same time, the entire altar began to tremble violently. The golden me above it didn''t disy much of a reaction, but the blue pouch was bulging erratically while the rumbling within it grew louder and louder, to the point it resembled a thunderstorm raging directly beside one''s ears.


    Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan exchanged a tense look upon seeing this, but before they had a chance to do anything else, a resounding boom rang out as eighteen water dragons erupted out of the blue pouch before pouncing at the two of them.


    Each water dragon was over a hundred feet in length, and their bodies looked as if they had been carved out of crystal, giving off incredibly formidable waterw power fluctuations.


    "Brace yourself!" Lan Yuanzi warned as the eighteen water dragons crashed into the array that they had set up.


    A string of resounding booms rang out in rapid session as countless arcs of blue water lightning erupted out of the eighteen water dragons'' bodies, epassing the entire altar with blue lightning.


    Lan Yan''splexion paled slightly as she sensed the awe-inspiring power imbued within the water lightning, and she hurriedlyposed herself before continuing to make a string of hand seals, assisting Lan Yuanzi by injecting her immortal spiritual power into the oil paper umbre up above.


    All of a sudden, the oil paper umbre swelled to several times its original size, and the pond on its surface began to churn violently, while the koi fish leaped out of the water over and over again, leaving golden trails on the umbre in their wake.


    At the same time, a series of runes lit up over the umbre''s shaft, following which numerous ck vortexes emerged, releasing bursts of suction force that began sucking in the blue lightning raging down below in a frenzy.


    The eighteen water dragons were still violently wreaking havoc, while the water lightning that they released was being rapidly absorbed by the oil paper umbre.


    At this point, the entire pond on the umbre was churning so violently that it looked as if it had been brought to a boil, and the koi fish inside were frantically flopping up and down, while arcs of lightning shed over their scales.


    As the oil paper umbre continued to absorb the water lightning, it seemed that an impasse had been reached. The amount of water lightning around the altar wasn''t increasing any further, but it remained as powerful as ever.


    "Looks like this is the best that we can do. If we keep this up, the umbre is most likely going to give out soon, so we have to take a risk now!" Lan Yuanzi said with a grim expression, and Lan Yan nodded in response.


    The two of them sat down with their legs crossed, then closed their eyes as each of them made a strange hand seal, and bursts of formidable waterw power fluctuations began to surge out of their bodies.


    At the same time, numerous thin threads began to emerge over the two surrounding spirit domain light barriers, and the threads intertwined before tugging on one another to fuse the two light barriers together.


    Immediately thereafter, a nascent soul emerged from the bes of both Lan Yuanzi andn Yan, and they drifted toward each other before also fusing together.


    The fused nascent soul swelled rapidly in size until it wasparable in size to the average adult human, and it had a set of rather gender-ambiguous facial features.


    Immediately thereafter, bursts of formidable waterw power fluctuations surged out of thebined spirit domain, encasing the fused nascent soul in a suit of strange-looking blue water armor.


    The fused nascent soul''s aura instantly swelled drastically, enhanced by the suit of water armor, and it took a nce at the physical bodies of the Lan siblings, who were still seated at their original spots, before flying over to the edge of the altar.


    The fused nascent soul reached its hands into the barrier of lightning up ahead before bringing them apart, and theyer of water lightning directly up ahead was parted to create an opening, which the nascent soul was able to burrow its way into.


    As soon as the fused nascent soul entered the altar, it was immediately attacked by the eighteen water dragons, and in response, the nascent soul made a strange hand seal, then thrust both hands toward the oing water dragons, conjuring up a circr water shield to ward off their attacks.


    A burst of thunderous rumbling rang out as the eighteen water dragons crashed into the shield, sending bursts of blue water lighting erupting in all directions.


    Countless arcs of violent water lightning struck the nascent soul, and even though they were kept out by the suit of water armor, the nascent soul''s features still became twisted with agony.


    Despite this, the fused nascent soul continued to inch its way toward the altar, disying no intention of backing down.


    As the rumbling grew louder and louder, the water lightning became more powerful, and the fused nascent soul''s suit of water armor was beginning to evaporate.


    At the same time,rge plumes of water vapor began to surge out of the oil paper umbre above, and the pond on its surface was bing noticeably shallower, while seven or eight of the koi fish in the pond had already dissipated.


    Right on the verge of copse, the fused nascent soul was able to step onto the altar before grabbing onto the blue pouch, then tore the pouch out of the altar.


    As soon as the pouch was disced, all of the eighteen water dragons instantly converged to form an orb of water that returned to the pouch, and the thunderousmotion immediately died down.


    At this point, the pond on the oil paper umbre above the altar had runpletely dry, and not only had all of the koi fish vanished, the surface of the umbre had also be withered and wrinkled, as if it had been scorched by mes.


    As the final hint of spiritual light faded from the umbre, it abruptly erupted into mes before being reduced to ashes in mere seconds.


    After retreating from the altar, the fused nascent soul split back up into two nascent souls that flew back into the bodies of Lan Yuanzi and Lan Yan.


    Immediately thereafter, their eyes sprang open, and Lan Yan was currently holding the blue pouch as she cast an ecstatic gaze toward Lan Yuanzi.


    Thetter opened his mouth to say something, but before he had a chance to do so, the altar suddenly began to tremble violently as a series of massive cracks appeared over its surface, and the cracks were rapidly expanding.


    Lan Yuanzi hurriedly rose to his feet before grabbing onto Lan Yan''s hand, following which he flew out of the pce toward the za outside.


    As he did so, he noticed that theyer of mist over the za was beginning to thin out bit by bit beforepletely fading away altogether, freeing everyone from their illusions.


    Having been abruptly snapped out of the bottomless sea, Han Li gasped for air as he hurriedly swept his gaze over his surroundings, immediately spotting the violently quaking blue pce and the Lan siblings in the air above.


    A perplexed look appeared on his face upon seeing this, but before he had a chance to ask any questions, a resounding boom rang out from within the pce.


    Immediately thereafter, an enormous ck rift emerged all the way from the pce to the za beneath his feet, tearing the entire cliff apart.


    An rmed look appeared on Lei Yuce''s face as he attempted to fly into the pce to salvage the structure, but he had only just risen up into the air when the pce waspletely split into two, with its two halves copsing to either side.


    Through the destroyed pce, Han Li could see a golden me hovering above the altar inside, and it was flickering erratically, looking as if it could be snuffed out at any moment.


    He immediately channeled his Great Five Elemental Illusion Mantra upon seeing this, using his timew powers as a guiding force as he made a beckoning motion toward the golden me from afar.


    The restriction on the altar had already been destroyed by the Lan siblings, so the golden me was drawn to Han Li without posing any resistance.


    In the wake of the golden me''s departure, the altarpletely copsed, and an enormous ck hole appeared in its wake.


    The shattered altar plummeted into the hole, but no sound of itsnding could be heard.


    "It''s toote..." Lei Yuce murmured to himself with a grim expression.


    As soon as his voice trailed off, a chorus of ghastly shrieks rang out from within the hole beneath the altar.


    Han Li''s brows furrowed slightly as he detected the horde of formidable auras rising up from within the hole.


    "Tai Sui, you old scoundrel! I have returned!"


    A sharp voice that was filled with boundless resentment rang out from deep within the hole.
