Hearing that, Athan decided to approach the group.

The group that was riding on a Big Green colored albatross-like bird saw that a Fire Eagle was approaching and became vigilant but when they saw the people who were on it, They relaxed their guard.

After nearing them Athan looked at the elder and asked politely, " Elder do you know what is happening in the pond? "

The Elder looked at Athan and said, " Little boy, Where are your elders? "

" There are no elders, It's only me and her "

Hearing what Athan said, Elder was surprised and then shook his head as he said kindly, " You both should leave from the forest, It's not good to sneak out like this without notifying your elders, This forest is very dangerous. "

Athan awkwardly smiled as he explained, " Thank you for your advice elder but...I am actually very powerful. "

Hearing what Athan said, The 2 men who were in the mid-20s started laughing and the girl also chuckled.

The elder also shook his head and thought, ' Young ones nowadays are so arrogant, they won't learn unless they experience setback themselves, Since they have Grade 6 Fire Eagle, They must be from Thunder-Fire Valley and must have Core or Supreme elder as parents. '

Athan ignored those 3 who were laughing at himself and once again asked the elder, " So Elder can you tell me if you know what is going on here? "

Elder's face turned indifferent because Athan did not heed his advice and plainly said, " I am not too sure what is happening here, We can only know what is happening someone or a group dive inside to check the situation. "

Athan nodded and thanked the elder before flying away from them a bit to keep their distance.

Many people were still coming.

30 minutes passed but no one went inside to check the situation.

Suddenly A Majestic Flying Beast appeared above them, It was 30 meters long and had a wingspan of more than 80 meters long.

People looked up as they cried out in astonishment.

" That's the famous mount of Cloud Fantasy Palace known as Holy Cloud Beast. "

On top of the beast were 6 people and all of them women.

Athan looked carefully found that two elder women were Elemental Archmage while another woman who looked to be in her thirties was also Elemental Archmage, She seems to be the same age as Lafurge and the other 3 were girls around the same age as Athan and Tiana.

After some small commotion, people went back to focus on the pond.

Another 30 minutes passed but no one moved from their place.

Athan was impatient as he found the reason why no one was going inside to check things out.

The reason was, No one wanted to make the first move as everyone speculated that the pond is most likely dangerous seeing this phenomenon, and there should also be powerful marine beasts inside.

So no one wanted to go first as the one who goes first will likely face a dangerous situation.

Athan looked at Tiana and said, " These people likely won't move any time soon, all of them are behaving like scaredy-cat. " He then paused and looked at the Holy White beast before saying to Tiana, " How about this? I'll go check things inside the pond while I leave in the care of people from Cloud Fantasy Palace? They are all women so you will also feel safe. What do you think? "

" This..." Tiana hesitated for a few seconds before nodding her head and said, " Ok, But...Don't take too long and don't take unnecessary risks. "

Athan laughed and said, " hahaha, Don't worry. I will come out as soon as I see what's inside. "

He then commanded the Fire Eagle to fly towards the Holy Cloud Beast.

Seeing a Fire Eagle approaching, The group from Cloud Fantasy palace turned their attention towards it.

After nearing them, Athan smiled and spoke in a polite voice as he pointed at Tiana, " Elders, Can you please take care of her while I am away? I will be back in a few minutes. "

Looking at Athan and Tiana, one of the elders nodded indifferently, " Alright, Since we have space here, She can stay here until you return. "

" Thank you very much. " Saying this he grabbed Tiana's hands and took her on top of the Holy Cloud beast.

He then turned to the elder and said politely, " I'll be back very soon, I won't trouble you for much longer. "

He then directly flew down and dived inside the Pond, instantly creating a commotion all around.

The elders and other people on top of the Holy Cloud Palace were dumbfounded.

The elder who spoke with Athan turned her face to Tiana and asked confusedly, " What is he doing? "

The woman who was in her thirties snorted and said with dissatisfaction, " Obviously he is courting his death. "

Tiana smiled and said to the elder, " Its ok elder, you don't need to worry about him, He is very powerful, Actually he must be the most powerful among all people present here. "

Hearing her words, everyone on top of the Holy cloud beast was dumbfounded.

One of the girls among the group who was the same age as Tiana looked at her like she was an idiot and said, " Do your brain have some problem? He just around our age, how can he be the most powerful here? "

Tiana shook her head and smiled as she said, " Just wait and see. "

...

Meanwhile, Athan realized that the pond was deeper than he thought.

He followed the trail of where the dense water elemental energy was coming from and arrived at a small passage that was blocked by powerful beasts.

But none of them were Grade 6 beasts which confused Athan, ' People were saying it will be dangerous here but it seems that they got the situation wrong. '

He started moving towards the passage ignoring the attack beasts threw at him as their attacks didn't even put a scratch on him.

He then went inside the passage.

After Traveling in the passage at his top speed for 5 minutes he arrived in a completely different place, It was a cave and the water level here only reached his knees.

He still followed the Water elemental energy's trail and reached the dead end of the cave.

In front of him was a head-sized hole that was constantly releasing the Water elemental Energy.

' There must be something past this dead end. '

Athan then punched a few times and another small passage was revealed, seeing this, He went inside with full speed as he already spent more than a few minutes here.

...

2 minutes passed and Athan returned with his face filled with a pleasant surprise.

' I'll bring Tiana here first, then I'll block the passage, I found this place so it's mine. '

The people around the Pond were discussing the person who went inside.

Someone spoke, " It's been 10 minutes, maybe he is dead already? "

Another person chimed in and said, " Obviously he is dead, didn't you see how old was he? He was practically a kid, he must have just opened his psychic realm recently. "

" But where are his elders? "

Suddenly, Athan came out from the pond with a splash and directly flew towards the Holy Cloud Beast and grabbed the hand of Tiana before turning to elders and said, " Thank you very much, I'll be taking my leave now. " Then Athan directly flew downward with his full speed.

Before the surprised Elder could ask Athan about the situation inside the lake, He already arrived near the pond's surface and was going to dive inside.

But at that time, 2 powerful Attacks flew towards Athan.

One was a powerful Water Spell, Water Jet Arrows, and another spell that was thrown was Molten Boulder. A powerful Fusion spell that needed Fire and Earth Elemental Energies.

Athan already sensed the spells just as he was going to dive inside, these two spells would not damage him as his body had become even more powerful after it was refined by the Strange Dark energy released from the black whirlpool, But Tiana might receive some damage from scattered energy so he threw Tiana inside the Pond [A/N: seriously ?].

After that, He punched the Molten Boulder into pieces and powerfully waved his hands which dissipated the Water Jet Arrows.

Seeing what Athan did, silence descended around the pond.

Athan didn't directly dive into the pond but Looked at everyone and spoke in a loud voice with a domineering manner, "IF YOU ALL CHERISH YOUR LIVES, THEN DON'T COME INSIDE TO COURT YOUR DEATH. "

After saying this, He dived into the pond and once again grabbed the hand of Tiana before going towards the direction of the passage which led to the cave.

Tiana awakened Water Elemental Affinity, So she had no trouble staying inside the water.

Soon, They entered the passage and arrived in the cave.

Tiana was also dumbfounded by what Athan did, but she was not scared as she knew his power and asked, " Where are you taking me to ?"

Athan smiled mysteriously and said, " A very mystical place. "
