Forty-nine whirlpools are arranged in a standard square formation, spanning seven rows, causing the entire sea area to surge and undulate continuously.
" Heavenly Derivation Art!"
Ning Chuan's eyes narrowed, and his vast Divine Sense swept out, probing into the vortex.
Normal seawater was flowing around the whirlpool.
However, as his Divine Sense entered the bottom, a chilling sensation came over him.
Everywhere was pitch-black void.
Vast and boundless.
Boundless.
Ning Chuan extended his Divine Sense to its limit, but found nothing.
This situation is very similar to when he investigated the Divine Martial Stele.
"Does the vortex contain its own independent space?"
Ning Chuan had a guess in his mind.
He thought for a moment, and then light surged in front of him, intertwined with Mystic Truth fluctuations, forming a Force clone that plunged into a whirlpool in the sea!
Whoosh!
Ning Chuan's Force clone moved with incredible speed, arriving at the bottom of the vortex in a flash.
The next moment, with a splash, water sprayed up.
The Force clone broke straight through the bottom of the vortex and entered the Spirit Refining Sea inside, without disappearing.
" The Force Doppelganger can't be triggered?"
Gazing at the rapidly recovering vortex, Ning Chuan's thoughts drifted. "Or perhaps, there's no world inside the vortex?"
Next, Ning Chuan controlled his Force clone to try out all the remaining forty-eight vortexes.
The results were exactly the same as the first time.
The Force clone broke through the vortex and plunged deep into the sea.
Even when Ning Chuan condensed multiple Force clones and entered the entire vortex simultaneously, nothing unusual happened.
"I need to hurry; I can't linger here any longer."
Ning Chuan gave a silent reminder.
He waved his hand, dissolving all his Force clones. "Find someone to test it out!"
Ning Chuan flashed away and disappeared in a flash.
A certain sea area.
Dozens of figures hovered low in the air, channeling their Force to bombard the seawater, creating massive, surging waves.
They were all Knight and Divine General who came in search of treasure.
However, unable to withstand the soul attack from the Spirit Refining Sea, he could only hover in the sea, using his attacks to stir up the seawater and search for any hidden treasures within.
"This is incredibly slow!"
A Knight was impatient.
Someone nearby comforted him, saying, "Be patient. The power here is so strong, it must be hiding some great treasure!"
"Didn't you see that even alien Heavenly King have come to search for them!"
"They can venture into the sea to investigate; even though it's just one person, their efficiency is far greater than our allied team!"
"Isn't that obvious? That's the Heavenly King, an being that looks down upon countless living beings!"
A murmur of whispers arose.
Many people looked at a burly man with horns on his head in awe.
He was that alien Heavenly King.
It belongs to the Mad Bull Clan.
Currently ranked in the Mid-Stage Spring Realm, possessing Sixth-Grade Law.
This level of strength would only rank him at the bottom among the Heavenly King, but for most people, it would still be an unattainable existence that they would have to look up to!
At this moment, the Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan, suspended in mid-air, was consuming Spirit-Nourishing Liquid to recover his depleted spiritual energy.
Although he could search at sea, it was extremely taxing and he couldn't sustain it for long.
boom!
Suddenly, the sky and sea changed color, and golden light shone brightly!
Everyone's heart skipped a beat, and their eyes changed drastically!
Suddenly, a gigantic hand descended from the sky, blotting out the sun and covering the entire sea!
Five fingers swept across the sky, heavy and vast, exuding a terrifying pressure, then gathered together and grabbed at the Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan!
The Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan was terrified; the fear in his heart was like a burst dam, completely uncontrollable!
He desperately dodged and fought back, using every means at his disposal!
But in the end, it all seemed to be in vain.
It had absolutely no effect.
He could only watch in despair as the golden hand descended, engulfing his figure!
Ning Chuan was surrounded by the power of the Ends of the World Mystic Truth, hidden in the void, Shadowless, and did not appear.
boom!
The next moment, amidst many horrified gazes, the clenched golden hand suddenly exploded, like a star, its light overwhelming and dazzling!
When the light faded, the area where the Mad Bull Clan's Heavenly King had been was completely empty!
Everyone was unsettled, exchanging bewildered glances.
A Heavenly King at the pinnacle of his career, gone just like that?!
"What's going on? Is there a defensive array in this sea area?"
"It doesn't seem like it!" A Divine General shook his head, his eyes grave. "I believe an unparalleled expert intervened, single-handedly wiping out the heavens and destroying the alien Heavenly King!"
"It must have been Great River Realm Heavenly King who made the move!"
Some speculated, but this did not garner widespread agreement.
"I don't object to your power reaching the Great River Realm, but the key point is, to destroy a Heavenly King, you should at least show yourself!"
"I didn't see anyone appear!"
"Everyone, I feel like this sea area isn't clean!"
As the conversation raged, many people dared not linger any longer and quickly left.
In fact, the Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan did not die. Ning Chuan spared his life, captured him, and traversed the void to head to the sea area where the forty-nine whirlpools were located.
"Lord Ning Chuan, spare my life! Although I was traveling with those Great River Realm Heavenly King from the Holy Heaven Alliance, my strength is no threat to you whatsoever!"
The Mad Bull Clan's Heavenly King, with severed tendons and broken bones, was driven by a strong will to survive, coughing up blood and begging for mercy.
He didn't want to die.
In return, I can tell you some important information about Si Nanbo that will be of great use to you!
After listening to the words of the Mad Bull Clan's Heavenly King, Ning Chuan glanced at him, a slight stirring in his heart.
The other party can indeed use it to understand Si Nanbo.
"How is it, Your Excellency Ning Chuan?"
The Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan asked respectfully.
"Not very good."
Ning Chuan's eyes were indifferent as his spiritual power surged forth, penetrating the soul of the Mad Bull Clan's Heavenly King and beginning a soul search.
A flood of information flashed by.
" Si Nanbo's peak condition was the Early-Stage Sea Realm..." Ning Chuan analyzed in his heart, "Then, before he recovered, his strength would have dropped by more than one major realm, and he should currently be at the River Realm!"
The River Realm isn't particularly high.
However, considering that Si Nanbo has mastered the Third-Grade Law, Si Nanbo combat strength can be ranked first among the people in the Prison Realm.
"No wonder they're hiding their strength..."
"Um?!"
Just then, Ning Chuan's eyes flashed, and he became solemn.
He browsed through fragments of memory of Si Nanbo using blood to treat the Luan Teng.
"According to Si Nanbo, this is a physical cultivation technique, so his physical body is probably not weak!"
"But he didn't show any of these abilities when he was chasing me and Senior Ye!"
Ning Chuan's thoughts raced, and he quickly found the reason.
There are only two possibilities.
Either Si Nanbo's physical body is truly weak, making it impossible for him to display his abilities.
The method of healing the body with blood is simply a high level of skill!
Just like his Heaven-Chaos Force, the first chapter was completed immediately.
Or perhaps, Si Nanbo's physical body is simply too powerful!
It's even stronger than his physical body!
It cannot be exposed.
Otherwise, it will provoke a collective attack!
"If it's the latter, then things will be difficult!" Ning Chuan narrowed his eyes, a sense of vigilance rising in his heart. He thought to himself, "Not only is Si Nanbo strong, but his scheming is also terrifyingly deep!"
This is an extremely difficult character to deal with!
However, Ning Chuan kept this in mind and did not think about it any further.
He, along with the Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan, had already arrived above the vortex.
With a thought, Ning Chuan withdrew his spiritual power and ended the soul search.
"Where... where is this?"
The Heavenly King of the Mad Bull Clan regained consciousness, but the dual injuries to his soul and body left him dizzy and disoriented. He frowned and asked in confusion.
Ning Chuan did not answer, maintaining the Force Imprisonment, and with a wave of his hand, threw him into the vortex.
The next moment, the Mad Bull Clan's Heavenly King drew a trajectory and fell to the bottom of the vortex, causing a commotion completely different from Ning Chuan's Force!
