First Display of Prowess

After some time, they arrived at the Sea Hunting Realm.

The giant ship towed a world, arriving at the first Seventh Rank World of this journey: the Sea Hunting Realm.

Seventh Rank World is much larger. Although it is similar to a grotto-heaven, the size of a world in the outer void does not represent the true size of the world.

Beneath the world barrier, a Seventh Rank World could have a radius ranging from millions to billions of miles. It might even contain a star system, a supercontinent, or some other structure. But what they all have in common is that, regardless of the structure of the world, it is always enveloped by a world barrier.

Within the world barrier, the size of the world can be extremely exaggerated. Many worlds of grade three or above are billions of light-years in size, with hundreds of millions of galaxies floating within them. They are completely bounded single universes. Some of the life forms that emerge from them refer to the outer world as the 'multiverse'.

But the people of the world scoffed at this, believing that the universe is the sum of all time and space, and that there is no such thing as a single entity or a multi-entity. The universe is the universe, and the universe is everything. If there is another realm beyond the realm, that is also the universe.

However, people in those so-called 'single-universe' worlds generally do not agree with this view. They stubbornly believe that their own universe is the only universe, and everything outside is 'other universes'. This is a way of highlighting their special status. Otherwise, their world would be no different from everyone else's.

That being said, even such a vast third-grade world, in reality, from an external perspective, simply examining the World Barrier, many of them are no more than ten light-years in size.

In short, the space inside the World Barrier is far greater than the volume occupied by the outside.

The same applies to this Seventh Rank World.

The Sea Hunting Realm is said to be millions of miles in size, but from the outside, it appears as a sphere that radiates a dazzling light, is smooth and round, and reflects a pearly glow, with a radius of about ten thousand miles.

Li Shiwei leaned against the porthole, her eyes shining!

She had waited for far too long!

She excitedly pulled the somewhat reluctant Zhang You along, and they ran to the cabin door.

This giant ship will not enter the interior of the world, because it is towing another small world behind it. So they will send out some small Law Treasure with staff and supplies to enter the interior, resupply the base inside the world, load the cargo inside, and bring it back.

Li Shiwei was originally a member of the planned operation, but she half-forced and half-coaxed Zhang You to join her.

Upon arriving at the location, the team leader looked at the two girls with a serious expression. "Are you ready?"

"Alright!" Li Shiwei puffed out her chest and raised her hand, looking so happy she almost burst out laughing. She was already tired of staying on the ship. The little rascal had been cut by the dull knife of life for more than a year, and now he couldn't wait for a new life.

She came out hoping to see new scenery, and although the ship was new, after more than a year, she felt stifled and even a little bit of a waste of time.

Therefore, she had extremely high expectations for this trip to a world to participate in, and even ignored Zhang You's reluctance, relying on coaxing and dragging Zhang You along.

Zhang You could only nod. "Ready? Please begin."

The captain, with his usual stony face, said, "Alright, this mission lasts a month, so you have plenty of time. This small boat is for the two of you to use for transportation; it will only take you a day to cross the entire world."

"The Sea Hunting Realm is currently experiencing a beast tide. Be careful, go ahead."

Then, he opened the door, let the two of them in, and activated the Law Treasure.

Li Shiwei happily boarded the small boat and began her journey into the Sea Hunting Realm.

This small boat is just an ordinary flying boat, the kind that's very common in the world. It's Ninth Rank Magic Treasure, with almost no defensive or offensive capabilities, but it's very fast. Most importantly, it can accelerate at a constant speed, continuously stacking up speed. In Seventh Rank World where the suppression of the Heavenly Dao is not strong, it can easily travel a million miles in a day, making it a speed-specialized version.

"We've finally arrived. Tell me, what can we do in this world?" Li Shiwei piloted the flying boat towards the Sea Hunting Realm, looked at Zhang You, and spoke to her with great interest.

Zhang You sighed, "The Sea Hunting Realm is in chaos... Let's finish our business quickly and come back. It's Anxin to stay on the ship."

"So what if it's a chaotic world? Chaos is what makes it interesting," Li Shiwei replied.

Zhang You was speechless.

Then, after a while, she said, "A chaotic world... is no fun at all."

"It's still more interesting than being on the ship," Li Shiwei said indifferently.

Zhang You remained silent. She was never the type to enjoy arguing with people, and she would usually stop the conversation before it escalated into a fight.

Li Shiwei was used to it and didn't insist on asking further. She was already immersed in the joy of the new experience that was about to begin.

However, unexpectedly, Zhang You did not remain silent as usual. Instead, she suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Shiwei, do you... really like chaotic times? Do you like killing?"

"Hmm? I've never killed anyone, but I've seen a lot. Look at the leader, didn't he say he's killed hundreds of thousands of people? And he doesn't seem to care." Li Shiwei answered casually as she piloted the flying boat towards the Sea Hunting Realm.

Killing and taking another's life is nothing special in other realms. Endless wars are fought between civilizations for survival, ideals, venting frustrations, or some other purpose. In short, killing is the norm in other realms.

Unlike the balance of the world, the outer regions... are lawless lands.

Even the chamber of commerce that Li Shiwei and Zhang You are currently in wouldn't be so leveled up if it didn't have a young master backing them up, and a fourth-rank and three fifth-rank soldiers as high-end combat power.

To be honest, in the outer realms, everyone is constantly risking their lives. It's just that this place has a fourth-rank bigwig from Mount Luofu directly supporting it, and there's also a young master behind it, meaning there's a third-rank figure as a backer. That's why it's so peaceful and everyone is at peace.

The foundation of peace is actually maintained by extreme power and violence.

Zhang You understood this, but Li Shiwei did not.

"Killing someone... is a terrible experience," Zhang You advised Li Shiwei.

"You've tried it? What happened?" Li Shiwei asked curiously.

"..." Zhang You fell silent.

Li Shiwei got excited and started rambling on. "You've also done it. I heard my father and mother have done things like destroying the world. Look at how many people the leader has killed. It feels like I'm the only one on the ship who hasn't done anything... Am I just not a team player?"

As she spoke, she couldn't help but giggle.

Of course she knew killing was wrong, but it was just a joke, so what was the problem?

"You... you are so lucky." Zhang You didn't have the courage to continue, and just lowered her head.

The timid girl wasn't good at arguing with others; she didn't have the courage, or even the thought, to quarrel with Li Shiwei.

That's settled then.

Li Shiwei, however, pouted and said, "I'm so bored, how can I be happy?"

Zhang You didn't say anything.

We've arrived at the Sea Hunting Realm.

To the natives of the Sea Hunting Realm, the sky changed color.

The once blue sky began to show black holes.

The world barrier that protected everything was easily breached, and many magnificent flying ships flew out from it.

There are about thirty airships, and it will take a month to complete the work of resupplying supplies and retrieving cargo. There is a lot of time leeway. Originally, it would have only taken a maximum of seven days to complete all the work.

However, since the Sea Hunting Realm was still in the midst of the beast tide chaos, they were given twenty-one days of leeway.

Li Shiwei piloted the airship, quickly flying to a base.

The base was located in the center of a small city, which appeared to be only about 70 or 80 miles in circumference, and was surrounded by tall metal walls.

Many weapons were displayed on the wall, some of them kinetic weapons, and others powered by Technique Method. It seemed that some Technique Method from all over the world had been applied to the technology of the natives.

Around 100,000 people on the walls used these weapons of mass destruction to continuously attack the beast horde outside.

The deafening roar of cannons filled the air, and some native cultivators could be seen, fully armed, facing off against elite Savage Beast that were beyond the reach of weapons of mass destruction.

Cultivators dealt with Savage Beast of a certain rank by bombarding ordinary Savage Beast with artillery fire, and then used walls to hold them off. This method effectively curbed the beast tide's attack and protected the city very well.

However... it's only temporary. There's a clearly eighth-rank Savage Beast, its body like a small mountain, taller than the wall, being entangled by several eighth-rank natives. But it's obvious that even several eighth-rank natives can't stop this powerful Savage Beast.

Zhang You, who had been silent, looked down through the observation window and explained the situation, "We're unlucky. We've run into a beast tide. The base below is built in the city, so we can't get around it."

Li Shiwei, eager to try, said, "Bad luck? I think I'm lucky! You drive the boat, and I'll go down and see what this so-called beast tide is like."

Without even discussing it, she let go, turned around, and opened the hatch.

The moment the hatch opened, a communication Technique Method descended. Li Shiwei took the Technique Method, placed it to her ear, and the information carried within the Literary Qi entered her mind.

The message was brief, reporting the coordinates and the trouble they were facing, hoping to get help from the 'Chamber of Commerce'.

Clearly, this is a plea for help from the people of the city below. The Chamber of Commerce base, which is stationed in this world, also hopes that reinforcements will quickly lend a helping hand.

Isn't that a coincidence?

"They're asking for help, so it's only natural that they should help them, right? This wasn't something I offered on my own initiative," Li Shiwei muttered to herself as she looked at the situation below.

Immediately, she formed hand Hand Seals, and talismans appeared in her hands, which she then scattered with both hands!

Tens of thousands of talismans fell and floated in mid-air, forming a magnificent three-dimensional image, just like... a phantom image.

Then, Li Shiwei floated within this illusory, three-dimensional image, performing hand Method Formula, stepping through the nine palaces, and chanting a divine incantation. "Flame Spirit Shakes the Gods, Fire Radiates the Gods. Crimson Brightness Shines, Clouds Rumble and Bells Flow. The Celestial Capital Decrees, Stars Shine and Dippers Diminish. Dark Clouds Gather, Lightning Strikes and Stars Fly, Golden Halberds Spread, Slay the Evil Spirits—"

As she chanted the incantation, the image of the talismans she had previously set up vibrated, bursting forth with a sound hundreds of times louder, thus expanding the range of her divine incantation's influence by hundreds of times!

Yin Yang Qi intertwined, thunder roared, and howling winds and thunder seemed to shake the heavens, causing the world to change suddenly! Streams of divine lightning burst forth from within, striking the ground!

The giant Savage Beast, which was being entangled by several eighth-grade cultivators, seemed to sense the threat. It roared and suppressed the thunder!

With its roar, its body suddenly swelled, and countless black vines surged out of its body. Its height immediately increased tenfold, from the size of a small mountain to almost the height of a wall!

All the eighth-rank cultivators who were originally entangled with this Savage Beast fled away. They all realized that they were no match for it and that staying would mean certain death!

The original Savage Beast transformed into a black giant the size of a mountain, possessing incredible strength, and charged wildly towards Li Shiwei.

On the other side of the city wall, even seasoned Old Soldier were shocked by this sudden turn of events.

After the black giant suddenly transformed, all the Savage Beast seemed to go berserk. Their bodies and skin suddenly became incredibly tough, and they could even maintain their impact capability under the barrage of weapons of mass destruction.

The bullets fired by the natives of the Sea Hunting Realm were clearly not powerful enough to shatter the bodies of these Savage Beasts. The soldiers on the outermost perimeter were directly rushed over, grabbed, and torn apart!

The wall seemed about to be submerged in an instant!

These Savage Beast weren't even using their full strength earlier!?

But the soldiers reacted quickly. They scattered and threw grenades, and the Law Treasure sold all over the world were activated, blasting countless Savage Beasts to pieces, leaving them unable to stand.

At the same time, several loud cannon shots rang out not far away!

The natives of the Sea Hunting Realm used large-caliber warheads, carrying out a carpet bombing campaign like plowing a field!

Black blood, frothy and bubbly, splattered continuously across the earth, making it appear as if the land itself was being turned upside down.

But--

It was all in vain. The towering city walls seemed about to be toppled. The beast tide broke through the front line almost instantly, and countless soldiers were torn apart and devoured.

The black giant, carrying immense power, violently smashed through several eighth-rank cultivators before lunging at Li Shiwei, who was casting a spell.

But at this moment, Li Shiwei suddenly released her hands and shouted, "The heavenly decree has been issued, shake and bombard quickly, hurry—as the law commands!"

A divine thunderclap erupted, and lightning bolts shot into the sky! Thunder orbs stretched ten thousand feet into the heavens!

In an instant, all the Savage Beast on the entire battlefield, including the black giant, were wiped out with a single blow!
