Chapter 816: Chapter 791: Will a Super Power Steal the Prize? Yan Sheng glanced at the friends beside him and said in a deep voice, "You all go, I want to give it a try."
"Are you crazy?"
"Did you see those who have just jumped down? The weakest of them is at least at Half-Step Mountain Suppression Realm."
A few friends tried their best to dissuade Yan Sheng, because in their eyes, jumping into the lake was no different from seeking death.
Even if he doesn’t die, how could someone at the Divine Profound Realm snatch anything from a Mountain Suppression Realm expert?
Seeing Yan Sheng already walking slowly forward, the group was stunned.
"What happened to you?"
"You’re usually timid, but you’ve never been this foolish. There’s no chance, come back!"
After hearing his friends, Yan Sheng smiled slightly and said, "The past is the past, now is now. The current me wants to try for a smile... because if you’re weak, you can’t even protect what rightfully belongs to you. And it might bring humiliation to your family... You all go ahead, I’ve decided to give it a try."
The group found Yan Sheng’s words inexplicable, unable to fully comprehend.
But they were too tired to continue talking to Yan Sheng.
If Yan Sheng wanted to court death, let him go court death.
"Mad, simply mad."
"Let’s just leave then."
With that, the group quickly left.
Yan Sheng continued forward, arriving at the lake without any hesitation, and jumped down.
Splash!
Water splashed everywhere.
Up high, Wen Ping watched the scene, nodding with satisfaction, "A promising seedling indeed. It seems years of his parents’ teachings and years of patience haven’t let him forget his courage."
Just daring to jump, in Wen Ping’s eyes, Yan Sheng was already successful.
Whether or not he gets the token doesn’t matter.
But Wen Ping didn’t plan to end the test here and watched Yan Sheng continue onward.
If he could get the token in such a perilous situation, the confidence within would explode beyond measure. This would surely be beneficial for his future.
After diving into the water, Yan Sheng didn’t urge forward but swam at a slow, steady pace. A fight was already ongoing ahead, so swimming carefully seemed the safest bet.
With more and more people fighting, the entire lake grew increasingly turbulent, from afar appearing as if the waves were roaring.
Underwater, things were worse; as Yan Sheng swam forward, he’d be forced back by surging currents. Often, he’d swim a yard, then be pushed back three or four.
Bam!
Unable to bear it, Yan Sheng opened his Meridian Gate.
The water-blue Meridian Gate began to tremble, calming the surrounding water significantly.
The next moment, the Meridian Gate shook violently.
The water around Yan Sheng began to rotate, forming a small vortex, propelling Yan Sheng downward.
Targeting the token!
"You brat!"
"Stand still for me!"
The Mountain Suppression Realm experts overtaken by Yan Sheng were instantly infuriated.
But being Water Attribute Anomalous Veins, they couldn’t catch up.
Yan Sheng’s actions drew attention from those at the bottom in combat.
Seeing a Divine Profound little kid trying to snatch from them, they immediately intended to deal with Yan Sheng.
However, just as someone was about to act against Yan Sheng, suddenly, his Meridian Gate displayed a second color.
The inner circle of the Meridian Gate turned wood-green.
Boom—
The Meridian Gate trembled again.
The lake bottom erupted countless green tendrils, converging and intertwining, forming a tunnel, visible only from the outside, extending directly to the token’s edge.
This scene left many stunned!
Some even paused, reflecting on the extraordinary moment.
"Did this kid just use two Anomalous Veins?"
"Seems like it!"
"Water Attribute, Wood Attribute..."
A group watched in disbelief at the scene.
At this moment, suddenly, a well-built middle-aged man appeared at the lake shore. No one saw how he got there, but suddenly he stood there.
