Loud wails came from inside the bronze palace.
It sounded melancholic, its tone going from high to low periodically. However, it had strong mental
powers, as if the woman had been crying since the Stone Ages, saddening nature alongside her.
The people who heard this wailing were instantly affected, falling into an extremely upset mood. Unable
to bring themselves out of this sadness, they weep uncontrollably.
Some whose mental strength wasnât strong enough fell to the ground, bawling their eyes out, crying so
much that they started to vomit blood as well.
The entire scene was utterly upsetting and unbearable.
Alex resisted the wailing with his mental strength since he had quite a lot of mental power as of now.
Although he managed to drastically increase the power from the Soul Collection Coffin, resisting the
wailing was so daunting that beads of cold sweat ran down his forehead.
Yuno, on the other hand, seemed fine, but Jade couldnât handle it at all.
Her strengths were mainly physical, and her mental powers couldnât be better than Alexâs. The wailing
immediately affected her mind, leading her to not only tear up but howl loudly as well.
At that moment, the hall was filled with crying.
It was then that Zendaya reached one of her fingers out, making it glow with white light. There even
seemed to be talismans flowing within.
The light then shot out into rays of thin lines and formed into half a sphere, surrounding Alex, Jade, and
Yuna as well.
That was a protection shield formed with mental power. As the wailing hit the shield, the talismans
started quivering, forming yellow rays of light. Yet, it was still unable to protect them from most of the
effects.
âWhoâs crying in there?â
âItâs so depressing and excruciating⦠Ugh⦠I canât bear it anymore! I really want to cryâ¦â
The others from the clan were still crying loudly, unable to understand their situation.
Then, all of a sudden, the wailing stopped.
The sect master of the Kamikaze clan stared into the palace, visibly confused as he mumbled to
himself, âCould there still be someone alive within Natureâs Palace?â
The old man next to him replied with uncertainty.
âThatâs not possible, right? I heard Natureâs Palace has been hiding under the Earthâs surface for
around ten thousand years. Immortal cultivators have never existed in this realm, so who could
possibly live past ten thousand years?â
Someone else said, âI know! This must be the legacy of the Goddess of Nature. That was a womanâs
cry, right? I heard that after the Goddess understood nature and become a deity, she didnât want to
leave this realm. Unsurprisingly, she left her wails here, right?â
With this, the sect master of the Kamikaze clan was excited. He pointed towards the Vajra Demonic
Ape and said, âNo matter what that was, letâs get this fella first. Even if we donât obtain the legacy of
Natureâs Palace, the rare treasures on this punk are enough to cover the price of coming all the way
here.â
âDie!!
âThousand Sword Formation, go!â
Just then, several swords flew out from the members of the Kamikaze clan. As though an angry swarm
of locusts, they headed toward Alex and the others at a rapid speed.
Roar!
The Vajra Demonic Ape let out a loud roar and stepped forward, ready to take all those swords head-
on. However, before it could do that, a cold huff echoed within the palace.
âHmph!â
âAnyone who dares to play tricks in the holy palace should get lost!â
Suddenly, an overwhelming force formed within the palace and aimed toward the large swarm of flying
swords.
In just a second, all the flying swords bounced back. They now flew quicker with increased power.
âOh no! Retreat!â yelled the sect master.
However, it was all too late. Not only were the swords flying ten times faster, but they had immense
power, as though thousands of meteors were crashing into the ground.
Pfft!
