Swish! Swish!
The sea was azure, the sky a pure white, and a golden and azure light flashed by in the blink of an eye, like two streaks of lightning streaking across the sky, startling a flock of seagulls nearby who cried out in alarm, unaware of what had happened.
Both Ning Chuan and Old Zhou were enveloped in Force, moving at extremely high speeds.
Before long, the massive outline of the Divine Martial Stele came into view, lying across the North Sea like a huge, dark mountain soaring into the sky.
They are only half the distance between the dome, which is 100,000 meters high!
Fifty thousand meters high!
This is only the part that protrudes above the sea.
With a depth of 20,000 meters, it's a full 70,000 meters!
"Magnificent and grand!"
Ning Chuan sighed sincerely.
His eyesight far surpassed that of Elder Nie; he could see clearly and better appreciate the grandeur of the Divine Martial Stele.
Standing between the sea and the sky, it seems to be able to suppress the entire realm!
The title of "Divine Warrior" is truly well-deserved!
Elder Nie gazed into the distance, nodded in agreement, and said, "Judging solely from its appearance, the Divine Martial Stele is undoubtedly the most extraordinary and unparalleled of all the secret realms discovered on Martial Star so far!"
As he spoke, Elder Nie recounted. "When the Divine Martial Stele was first discovered, all the powerful figures in Martial Star and Heavenly Martial Realm went crazy for it, believing that it must contain an extremely precious treasure!"
After several investigations, they discovered that while there were indeed many treasures, they were less than they had expected.
Compared to the top-tier secret realms, it's actually a step behind.
Later, the hype gradually died down. Although many powerful individuals still entered, it held little appeal for the Heavenly King of the River Realm and Great River Realm.
Ning Chuan thought for a moment and said, "It should be in a sealed state, like a pearl covered in dust, not fully opened."
"Right!"
Elder Nie agreed, staring intently at the Divine Martial Stele in the distance, and said, "This time, with the revival of the Martial Star, it might be fully activated!"
Elder Nie specifically reminded them, saying, "These days, the treasures shot out by the Divine Martial Stele are of much higher quality than before; they were previously difficult to find even after venturing deep into the secret realm and overcoming countless hardships."
The two chatted as they flew, gradually approaching the Divine Martial Stele.
During the conversation, Ning Chuan's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly said, "Is this the aura emanating from the Divine Martial Stele?"
A desolate aura swept over us, filled with bloodshed and savagery, utterly tragic.
The intensity... isn't high.
Ning Chuan estimated that it could withstand even the souls of ordinary people.
The quality is absolutely terrifying!
Ning Chuan's mind tensed uncontrollably, his body under constant warning, as if he were in the most ancient and desolate land, where danger lurked and a moment's carelessness could lead to his death.
"Yes!"
Elder Nie affirmed Ning Chuan's statement and said in a deep voice, "We are currently some distance from the Divine Martial Stele, so this wild aura is still relatively weak."
"As they get closer, the intensity of their aura will increase."
Elder Nie emphasized, "Especially the area right next to the Divine Martial Stele, I couldn't hold out for long after I went in."
Even ordinary Heavenly King from the Spring Realm and River Realm who are trapped inside must exert all their strength to protect their souls.
Ning Chuan nodded thoughtfully.
The aura emanating from the Divine Martial Stele is not considered a form of mental attack.
However, the immense pressure it contained was so strong that it also affected the soul.
Just like the Force, if it reaches the level of Heavenly King, it's enough to suppress an ordinary Knight to the point of being unable to think.
Before long, Ning Chuan and Elder Nie stopped moving forward, hovered in the air, and arrived in the vicinity of the Divine Martial Stele.
Splash--!
The seawater here sinks deep, surging and splashing up snow-white waves, cascading down like a waterfall, as if blocked by an invisible wall of air, forming a huge pit in the sea.
Centered on the Divine Martial Stele, the entire area spanning hundreds of kilometers is now visible.
Absolutely magnificent!
" The Divine Martial Stele was originally submerged by seawater, but as the strange phenomenon emerged, the aura it emitted pushed the surrounding seawater aside."
"That's what Elder Nie explained."
"It hasn't been here long; some of the seabed mud hasn't dried yet."
Ning Chuan said with a faint smile, his eyes scanning the surroundings.
Viewed from above, the Divine Martial Stele appears as a perfect regular heptagon.
It's just extremely huge.
Each side is the same height as the Divine Martial Stele, reaching 70,000 meters!
Around it, in the area without seawater, flashing lights crisscrossed the sky, changing direction flexibly. These were flying Knight, Divine General, and a few Heavenly King, busy searching for the treasures that had been shot out from the Divine Martial Stele.
Below, on the seabed, are Martial Artist cannot levitate.
More in number.
There were humans and other races, mostly traveling in teams, driving all sorts of off-road vehicles to quickly traverse the area and compete for the dropped treasures.
Well-funded squads, some even possess mechs.
In terms of speed, even the best off-road vehicle is still a step behind a mecha.
The outermost sea area was also teeming with Martial Artist came to seize the treasure. They also traveled in teams, riding in small, high-performance speedboats, speeding back and forth.
Most of them are very professional.
Ning Chuan could clearly see a ship with a navigator, observers, a doctor, and most importantly, treasure hunters, all wearing diving suits that could increase their speed.
If no one intercepts the treasures shot out by the Divine Martial Stele, they can fly to very distant places.
On the way here, Elder Nie had told Ning Chuan that a Martial Artist, who was both lucky and unlucky, was hit by a sacred herb that shot out from the Divine Martial Stele while strolling in the commercial street of Heaven-Suppressing City No. 1.
Luck, need I say more?
The probability of this is even lower than the probability of winning the jackpot on your first lottery purchase.
As for bad luck...
The sacred medicine was contained in a sealed stone box, weighing several dozen kilograms!
The Martial Artist is still in the hospital.
"Um?!"
Suddenly, Ning Chuan's eyes flashed as he noticed that on a certain part of the dark surface of the Divine Martial Stele facing him and Elder Nie, more than 10,000 meters above the ground, a faint, water-like light rippled outwards in concentric circles.
The next moment, a sharp sword shot out, as fast as lightning!
"Another great treasure has been shot out!"
"They've headed northwest. The Divine General and Knight couldn't stop them. Let's hurry!"
"Damn it, I floored the gas pedal, why isn't the SUV moving! I spent over ten million on this heavily modified version, wasn't it supposed to be able to break 800 km/h?!"
"Captain, is it possible—I'm just hypothesizing—that you stepped on the brake?"
In an instant, the entire area erupted in chaos and noise.
Everyone nearby was taking action.
Thump!
One of the Divine General reacted the fastest, taking the lead in condensing a huge Force handprint, radiating Law fluctuations, and swung it down from the sky, vast and mighty, grabbing at the sharp sword, only to be pierced directly through.
The sharp sword continued to sweep through the air.
However, the divine Divine General's attack also successfully slowed down the speed of the sword.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Dozens of beams of light shot straight toward the sharp sword.
They were all nearby Knight and Divine General.
Seeing this, the Martial Artist teams that were closer to the Divine Martial Stele stopped and ceased their pursuit.
They definitely can't win.
However, those Martial Artist teams that happened to be in the direction the sword was flying, and were still far from the Divine Martial Stele, all went into a frenzy, driving off-road vehicles or running at full speed towards the area where the sword might fall.
They were slower, but they were closer.
There may still be hope.
