Splash...
The North Sea is turbulent, with constant winds and waves.
A shadow swept across the undulating sea, disappearing in an instant. By the time the Martial Artist on nearby boats noticed it and looked up, they could only see a few small black dots flickering on the horizon.
Several Heavenly King from the Heavenly Martial Realm sped towards the nearest Martial Breaking City No. 10.
Xi Fengrou was also among them, and was swept away by a burst of Force from Liu Cangdong.
She stared at Liu Cangdong's gloomy face, her heart pounding with anxiety. Her voice trembled as she asked, " Fan Yu 'Heavenly King ring contains the ' Casket-Breaking Secret Key ' to seize that movement technique. Now it's in Ning Chuan's hands. What should we do?"
Liu Cangdong ignored her and left her to her own devices for a while, until Xi Fengrou's eyes were filled with tears, before coldly saying, "So you knew that losing the Casket-Breaking Secret Key would affect me!"
" Cangdong, I know I was wrong."
Xi Fengrou wept, her face streaked with tears, and said pitifully, "Whatever punishment you desire, Rou'er will obey."
Xi Fengrou naturally possessed the ability to become the most favored of all the holy maidens throughout history.
I am familiar with Liu Cangdong's personality.
When faced with criticism and accusations, don't worry about whether they are reasonable or not. Accept them all, take the blame yourself, and ask for forgiveness.
Sure enough, seeing Xi Fengrou like this, Liu Cangdong's expression softened slightly. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, stop crying!"
Fan Yu only has one Casket-Breaking Secret Key, so it won't have a big impact; at most, the process will be a bit more laborious!
"As long as we can obtain that movement technique, and slowly work our way up, we'll eventually be able to open the sealed, unmarked box."
Upon hearing this, Xi Fengrou immediately stopped crying.
However, tears still welled up in her eyes, like bright autumn waves, making her look incredibly charming.
She knew exactly how to maintain that balance.
The next moment, Liu Cangdong stopped using only his Force to restrain her and reached out to embrace Xi Fengrou, snake-like waist.
" The Nine Steps to the Ends of the World, that movement technique?"
Xiao Chen, who was traveling with them, suddenly asked.
"Right!"
Liu Cangdong readily admitted, " The Beast Emperor Hall collected Casket-Breaking Secret Key to unlock the Martial Seal hundreds of years ago."
The suitable storage location has remained undiscovered.
I have secretly gone there many times, but there is no way in.
Xiao Chen nodded, recalling the secrets he had read, and said, "It's not surprising. The Divine Martial Stele secret realm has always been in a semi-sealed state, and many of its inheritances are not revealed to the outside world."
"This time is different, we can find it!"
Liu Cangdong spoke with certainty, a pleased smile appearing on his face, " The Divine Martial Stele is sending out powerful treasures. According to historical records, even the most important Prison-Suppressing Dao Lineage will be activated, let alone the Nine Steps to the Ends of the World!"
"It's hard to say how strong the Prison-Suppressing Dao Lineage; there are only fragmentary accounts, no dedicated historical records."
Xiao Chen shook his head, his expression solemn, and said, "But the Nine Steps to the Ends of the World is clearly recorded as a martial art of the same level as the Heaven-Overturning Seal!"
Beside him, Zhang Tianzhi, the Pavilion Master of the Mystic Weapon Pavilion, added with undisguised envy, "If one could cultivate to the pinnacle, it would be enough to leave the Heavenly Martial Realm and traverse all the major Star Domain!"
Liu Cangdong shrugged and chuckled, "The upper limit is high, but I can't cultivate to that level. I'd be satisfied if I could increase my speed by 10%!"
"Brother Liu, if the Martial Seal of the Nine Steps to the Ends of the World can be passed down multiple times, how about giving me one?"
Xiao Chen smiled slightly and said, "Consider it a trade for that Realm-Breaking Dao Fruit."
"Me too."
Zhang Tianzhi chimed in, "I know. The value of the Nine Steps to the Ends of the World far exceeds that of Realm-Breaking Dao Fruit. If you need any help, just let me know."
He adopted a humble attitude.
After all, Liu Cangdong and Stars were both Fourth-Grade Law Great River Realm Heavenly King, one grade higher than him.
"Can."
After a brief moment of hesitation, Liu Cangdong agreed.
The Holy Heaven Alliance is not a monolithic entity; the Heavenly King of the Great River Realm need to form alliances based on shared interests.
Zhang Tianzhi thought for a moment and reminded him, "I remember the Casket-Breaking Secret Key has functions beyond just opening the Martial Seal."
Seizing the Martial Seal is equally crucial.
"Will Ning Chuan getting one cause any problems?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Cangdong's eyes flickered slightly, then he smiled and said, "No, there are three Casket-Breaking Secret Key, and I have two of them. Their influence on the Martial Seal will definitely exceed that of Ning Chuan."
"Besides..."
Liu Cangdong, with his Xi Fengrou and a confident smile, said, " Ning Chuan might not dare to enter the Divine Martial Stele."
Even if we got inside, how would we know the Casket-Breaking Secret Key?
The rise and fall of civilizations on Martial Star were extremely dramatic, resulting in a severely limited and impoverished understanding of their history—almost to the point of complete ignorance!
"That's true!"
"If he dares to go in, we'll wipe him out!"
The group flew along.
We are getting closer and closer to Martial Breaking City No. 10.
Buzz!
Just then, ripples appeared in the void ahead, revealing two figures.
One of the men was over ten feet tall, like a stone sculpture, his muscles bulging his black robe, exuding an overwhelming sense of oppression.
One person was clad in fiery armor, which burned fiercely and exuded the powerful pressure of the Great River Realm.
It was none other than Si Nanbo and Li Huo.
"Tracking us?!"
Seeing this, Xiao Chen and the others slowly slowed down, their bodies covered in Force, and their gazes all fell on Si Nanbo, filled with coldness and apprehension.
Previously, Si Nanbo had revealed fluctuations of Law, but he had concealed them.
They could only sense the Heart of Law, but they couldn't determine its specific level.
Please don't be nervous.
Si Nanbo smiled, indicating no ill intent, and said, "I've been following you all here simply to discuss a collaboration."
" The Alien Council and the Holy Heaven Alliance?"
Xiao Chen scoffed, not believing it at all.
Si Nanbo remained unchanged as he said, "I know that there have been conflicts between the two sides in the past."
However, a glorious era of revival is about to begin!
Nothing is irreplaceable!
Only by prioritizing mutual interests, cooperating, and achieving common success can we rise to prominence!
Si Nanbo opened his arms wide, emphasized his words, and said in a deep voice, "Forces and individuals like the Human Federation that stubbornly resist are going against the tide of history and will ultimately be eliminated by history, sinking into the depths of the river of time!"
After hearing this, Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, his dismissive smile fading, and said thoughtfully, "What kind of cooperation? Tell me about it first."
"We'll tear up the previous special passage allocation plan and replace it with free-for-all looting! Let's join forces and fight against the Federation!"
Si Nanbo was tall and spoke directly to the point.
"Join forces? On what grounds!"
Liu Cangdong's gaze was mocking, aimed directly at Si Nanbo, and he said, " The Holy Heaven Alliance doesn't need to change its plans; it still has 25 special passages!"
"Twenty-five seats is a lot, but what harm would it do to have a few more special passageways?"
Si Nanbo was confident and said calmly, "To be honest, my strength has not fully recovered."
Council alone, against the Federation, could at best have a slight advantage.
It's not difficult for the Federation to obtain 10 special access routes.
Among them, the ten people who passed through the special passage, if all of them were Heavenly King of the Great River Realm or River Realm, the destructive power they would cause should not be underestimated!
Xiao Chen snorted coldly and said, "If you really dare to do that, leave them all behind on the Divine Martial Stele!"
"The risks are great, but can the Holy Heaven Alliance guarantee that the Federation won't gamble everything?"
Si Nanbo smiled faintly and asked in return.
The people opposite him exchanged glances and remained silent.
Si Nanbo continued, "I've heard that the Holy Heaven Alliance has a wealth of historical materials, so they should have some understanding of this matter."
He paused, his tone carrying a deeper meaning. "The native humans of Martial Star are the true descendants of the glorious era, and are highly favored by various lineages!"
Especially those powerful lineages!
