Chapter 344: A Purple Goddess
The Sanctuary Master and the Grand Elder were the only ones that had a slim chance of dealing with an ability like that, but one of them was still recovering from a surprise attack, while the other was locked in an intense fight against the Eleventh Palace Master and had no time to concentrate on other things. i????????????????α????. c????????
That’s why no one could stop Lan Xue’s advances and very quickly, all the pillars were enveloped in a thick layer of ice.
“No! Quick! Protect the pillars!”
“Help me over here! I can’t break the ice covering it!”
“This is not possible!”
While the elders were doing every single thing they could, trying to protect the pillars, the cold energy kept mercilessly attacking the purple matter that constituted them.
Crack!

Lots of fissures started to appear on the surface of those frozen pillars and it seemed that the situation was going to take a turn for the worse, for the people of the Illusive Ethereal Sanctuary. However, out of nowhere, a strange pressure descended over the women from the Glazed Lake.
That pressure surged so abruptly and with such intensity, that everyone felt the necessity to stop whatever they were doing.
Lan Xue’s powers were thoroughly suppressed and the Palace Masters felt like there was a boulder pressuring their shoulders down, trying to grind their bones into dust.
“Enough!” An ancient voice echoed around the whole lake.
When that voice resounded, the purple pillars resonated with it and thoroughly melted down, joining together with the water and swiftly taking over the entire lake.
From inside the ancient orb hovering high up in the skies, a thick purple cloud took over the entire area, completely blocking the sunlight.
That purple cloud of an elusive and ethereal type of smoke, started to converge in a single point, forming the silhouette of a woman. She had no skin and no clothes; her entire body was formed out of that purple energy, since she was one with it.
However, it was impressive that every single person that looked at her, could identify where were her distinguished purple eyes, even though they were closed. And when she opened them, it was like everyone was thrown into the midst of an illusion.
All the Palace Masters suffered some kind of dizziness, as if they were being bewitched by the purple glow inside her strange eyes. They felt weak and lost their strength. Even Lan Xue and the Lake Mother suffered a bit, with the strange power behind that stare.
Actually, Lan Xue was getting affected by it, a lot more than anyone else was.
The Illusive Ethereal Goddess turned her head and looked directly towards Lan Xue and felt the bloodline energy that was present inside her veins.
“You can stop now. I’ve already found the way inside.” The purple goddess said to her people.
After hearing his goddess words, the Sanctuary Master finally ordered for the elders and disciples that were still living, to leave that area.
Most elders were still alive, but their side had suffered a loss of almost a hundred disciples on that battle.
The Palace Masters were being completely suppressed and could only observe everything that was happening.
The Illusive Ethereal Goddess could’ve ordered her subordinates to kill them all, but in her eyes, they were mere ants and not even close to be a real threat for her. That whole battle was nothing more than show. She just needed her subordinates to buy some time, for her to unravel the secrets behind the spatial formation that connected the Glazed Lake Sect to the world.
The Illusive Ethereal Goddess’ powers were completely overwhelming the Palace Masters and her aura was at the Mana Sovereign late-stage Realm. At that level of cultivation, her incredibly thick Mana, was getting closer and closer to the last thresholds of mortality. However, the most problematic thing for the Palace Masters to deal with, was the soul pressure they were feeling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Illusive Ethereal Goddess was not only a very powerful individual, but she had a retained a very tiny part of her previous soul. That alone, was able to make her powers at least twice as effective, due to overwhelming presence.
The situation had suddenly changed with her appearance and the whole lake had fallen under her control. She was already able to feel the link that connected the real world to the sub-space where the Glazed Lake Sect was located and was already acting on invading it.
However, before she even tried to enter there, she had to make sure of something.
Her body suddenly vanished and appeared right before Lan Xue’s body, as if she had been there all this time. With only a single look, she was able to identify a bit of her bloodline source inside of that woman.
However, the goddess immediately noticed that Lan Xue was not the person she was after. The quantity of Illusive Ethereal bloodline inside of her veins, wasn’t much and the majority of her talents and powers, were due to the Glazed Lake Sect inheritances.
“Not her... So, it means the person I’m looking for, is still inside that sub-space.” Thinking out aloud, the Illusive Ethereal Goddess turned her head down and looked into the lake. Her eyes were already focusing on the formation, searching for a way for her to enter.
However, with the corner of her purple eyes, she picked something blue inside the lake; a color that shouldn’t exist there anymore, since the entire lake was already under her purple control.
Suddenly, that small blue point expanded and as if magic was happening, the whole lake water was instantly purified.
The Palace Masters felt the pressure that was blocking their energy veins vanishing and they could finally breathe once again. Some of them felt so tired, that they had to get support from the others, before they collapsed unconscious.
From inside the Lake, an ocean blue form emerged and almost as if instantly, the amount of water elemental particles in the whole environment doubled. The lake was returning back to its original state, as well as getting more abundant.
