245: Endless Sea of ​​Souls, Countless Opportunities

The Endless Soul Sea was boundless, with dense mist seemingly enveloping a celestial domain!

What met the eye were high platforms suspended in the sea, delving deep into the ocean. Each platform resembled an immortal mountain, rising and falling like coiling dragons!

"Is this the Soul Sea recorded in the Sect? Such dense Spiritual Qi! If I Cultivated here, I could probably reach the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm in less than three years!"

It was Zhu Zixi's first time entering the Endless Soul Sea, and even as a Saint, he couldn't help but feel a trace of daze upon seeing the scene that resembled a fairyland.

The expressions of the other Saints were no different from his.

It was too shocking!

"As expected of a great Opportunity within the Azure Dragon Secret Realm. Each of these immortal platforms contains inconceivable Spiritual Qi!"

"The Treasures within must be astonishingly valuable!"

A hint of greed flickered in Wan Tianchao's eyes!

Any Cultivator seeing this scene would be unable to conceal the greed in their heart; this was something unattainable in the outside world!

This was formed from the fresh blood of that powerful individual of the Azure Dragon Clan, and who knew how many Divine Treasures of great demons and devils, suppressed by him, were hidden within!

This might only be a part, but if they obtained it, it would be enough to significantly enhance their strength and allow them to grow to a terrifying level!

The Heavenly Phenomenon Realm?

It no longer seemed so out of reach!

"Everyone, the Soul Sea Opportunity is right before us. Why aren't you making a move?"

Bai He, the Saint of Feiyun Cave, looked at the crowd and spoke.

The appearance of the Soul Sea Opportunity seemed devoid of any danger, as if waiting for these Saints and Prodigies to take whatever they wished.

However, the Saints and Prodigies, accustomed to danger coexisting with Opportunity, were precisely wary because of the excessive calm.

No one dared to make the first move, all waiting for others to act first to see if there was unknown danger before deciding whether to contend for it.

After all, various Sects had records of Restrictions existing here, and there were even instances of platforms exploding, directly killing Cultivators!

Moreover, some people had even dug out the remnant will of great demons from these platforms, only to have their Divine Souls directly devoured, resulting in their death and the dissipation of their Dao!

Facing such unknown dangers, it was impossible not to be prepared.

"You people are too timid. A great Opportunity is before you, what is there to hesitate about? Are you waiting for those useless people from the Outer Sea to laugh at us from the Inner Sea?"

"If you don't dare, then I'll make the first move!"

Wan Tianchao sneered, mocking the crowd. As his voice fell, his figure leaped up, flying towards the nearest high platform!

Wan Tianchao's taunt was not taken to heart by the people present.

No one could guarantee that the seemingly great Opportunity before them was truly without danger. Since Wan Tianchao wanted to make the first move, they were happy to watch him act.

Looking across the immeasurably vast Endless Soul Sea, high platforms stood tall, some like towering peaks reaching into the clouds!

With countless Opportunities and Treasures, why rush for a moment?

Boom!!!

And just as everyone watched Wan Tianchao descend towards that high platform, a sky-piercing storm erupted from within the platform!

That sky-piercing storm, formed by Spiritual Qi, was like an invisible barrier, completely enveloping the entire high platform!

Wan Tianchao sneered, gathering a terrifying force in his hand. His already thick arm became even thicker, and he punched towards the Spiritual Qi storm!

"Tiger Soul Fist Force!"

Roar!!!

An astonishing roar came from his body. Wan Tianchao possessed the Bloodline of an ancient White Tiger descendant. With this strike, he awakened a part of the White Tiger Bloodline's power. His fist energy surged, carrying the power to split mountains and rivers, and slammed fiercely into the Spiritual Qi storm!

Crack!!!

A crisp sound came, and the Spiritual Qi storm formed on that high platform was actually struck with cracks by his punch!

Thump!!!

Immediately after, Wan Tianchao once again swung his massive fist, delivering another punch!

The Spiritual Qi barrier was instantly shattered!

"It succeeded!"

Ling Yu, the Saint of Vermilion Bird Prefecture, raised his eyebrows, his eyes gleaming!

All the Saints' expressions relaxed.

Wan Tianchao had set a good precedent for everyone. With a single punch, he shattered the Spiritual Qi barrier, and all the Opportunities within that massive high platform were now his!

"Hahahaha..."

"I said it before, Opportunity goes to the capable. There's actually Innate Gold and Stone Essence here. My treasured armor is settled!"

Wan Tianchao landed on the high platform, his Divine Thought sweeping across the entire platform, instantly discovering the Opportunities contained within.

His massive fist smashed down, and a large expanse of golden-glowing crystals appeared in a rock wall.

These crystals were precisely the metal-attribute Gold and Stone Essence!

They were indispensable Treasures for forging weapons and treasured armor!

Gold and Stone Essence were incredibly hard. When forged into weapons, they were indestructible and extremely sharp!

And when forged into treasured armor, their defense was astonishing, impervious to water and fire, making it difficult for ordinary heavy Treasures to harm them in the slightest!

"Gold and Stone Essence? Wan Tianchao, how about letting me have this? I need it to forge a heavy Treasure!"

Seeing the appearance of the Gold and Stone Essence, the Saints present were all moved.

Such a Treasure was rare and hard to come by. It was very difficult to find outside, and even if it existed, it would require an immense price!

You couldn't even buy it with Spirit Stones!

Zhu Zixi saw the Gold and Stone Essence and immediately wanted to obtain it.

"Zhu Zixi, are you dreaming? You need it, don't I need it too? If you want Gold and Stone Essence, you'd better go find it yourself!"

Wan Tianchao heard this and unceremoniously refused.

They were already rivals, so why would he give him the chance to obtain it?

Was he going to wait for Zhu Zixi to forge a heavy weapon in the future and use it to chop him?

He must have lost his mind!

Zhu Zixi's expression immediately became unpleasant, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"Wan Tianchao, since you're unwilling to part with it, don't blame me for taking it!"

"If I can't have it, you won't either!"

Boom!!!

Zhu Zixi's figure moved, and a powerful and astonishing aura soared from within his body!

In an instant, an Azure Dragon phantom appeared behind him. The icy aura of the Azure Dragon phantom enveloped a thousand-mile radius, and an invisible pressure emanated, carrying a terrifying killing intent!

"Azure Dragon Transformation!!!"

He made a killing move right from the start!

Zhu Zixi was serious now!

Wan Tianchao saw this, and a look of indifference appeared on his fierce face.

The confrontation between the two had already occurred countless times, so why would he be afraid of him?

"You want to snatch it from me? You're not worthy!"

"White Tiger Bloodline!"

Boom!!!

A massive White Tiger phantom appeared, and Wan Tianchao's body swelled tenfold, reaching over ten zhang in size!

A terrifying fist strike, carrying immense power, slammed towards Zhu Zixi who was coming at him!

Bang!

The fist forces of both sides converged, erupting into an invisible Qi force, and suddenly, a terrifying storm of powerful Qi swept forth!

Giant waves churned, and the sound of the Dao roared!

"The Opportunity has opened, what are you all waiting for!"

Ling Yu and Shen Xu exchanged glances, then immediately flew towards the distant high platforms!

...No one was a fool, nor would they fall behind!

Boom boom boom—

Waves of majestic aura erupted, and figures transformed into streaks of light, soaring towards the stone platforms they had chosen!

Zhu Zixi and Wan Tianchao wanted to fight?

What did that have to do with them? Let them fight; there were so many Opportunities, why bother with just that one?

Who said that Innate Gold and Stone Essence only existed on this one stone platform?

In their opinion, Zhu Zixi's actions were unwise!

But it was perfect; with these two powerful rivals out of the way, they could seize the Opportunity to claim several more stone platforms and obtain the Treasures within!

As numerous Saints and Prodigies made their move, in an instant, immeasurable Spiritual Qi erupted from each stone platform!

The giant waves in the sea seemed to be attracted by the Spiritual Qi, shaking and rising. Waves reaching the sky, like towering true Dragons, burst forth from the sea, crashing towards the stone platforms!

Deep within the sea, countless terrifying beings seemed to be Awakening. Violent, bloodthirsty, and murderous Qi continuously extended from the deep sea, transforming into countless terrifying Divine Soul remnants, manifesting in the long sky!

This scene immediately shocked all the Saints present!

"Sky-Reaching Spirit Snake phantom? Eight-Armed Divine Ape? Heaven-Devouring Toad? What's happening? How can so many Divine Soul remnants of ancient great demons and devils appear?"

Shen Xu was dumbfounded. Even in the Sect's records, there was no mention of such occurrences.

Did the predecessors not encounter them?

Or was it that this kind of anomaly only appeared at specific times?

"Legend has it that these great demons and devils all resided in the Sea of Buried Demons in ancient times, and were later suppressed and killed here by that powerful individual of the Azure Dragon Clan. These Divine Soul remnants were probably left behind from that time!"

"So many years have passed, their Divine Soul remnants have long lost their former power. We have no need to fear them at all!"

Teng Mu, the Saint of Black Tortoise Mansion, sneered. They understood that period of history very well because their ancestors had deep origins and knew many secrets.

"Brother Teng is right. They have been dead for so many years; they should have long since faded into oblivion. Their manifestation now probably indicates the presence of something here, and this is also a great Opportunity for us!"

Zhang Feng, the Saint of Lingxu Cave, had eyes like torches, sweeping over the layers of stone platforms, intending to find the connection between them!

Rumble!!!

However, at this moment, all the stone platforms began to vibrate violently, and terrifying Spiritual Qi continuously erupted, stirring up terrifying waves over hundreds of thousands of miles!

The stone platforms vibrated and cracked, as if some terrifying creature was about to emerge from within!

No one could approach, only watching helplessly as the sudden changes unfolded before them!

Swish swish swish!!!

In the Void Realm, streaks of air-breaking sounds came, and a large group of Cultivators flew rapidly from a distance.

Shen Xu and Ling Yu frowned upon seeing this.

"These fellows actually caught up so quickly?"

The newcomers were precisely the group of Cultivators they had left outside the misty clouds!

These Cultivators came from different sea regions of the Sea of Buried Demons. The strength of some of these forces was very strong, though not comparable to the top forces of the Inner and Outer Seas, but in terms of individual Cultivation, they were not necessarily much weaker than them!

More than a dozen Soul Palace Realm cultivators were the best proof!

"What's happening here? Why is there such a huge commotion?"

Gu Lintao of the Ghost Cave Sea Region stared at the scene, dumbfounded.

They had arrived a step late and hadn't seen what had happened earlier, thinking that something unexpected had occurred.

The Divine Soul remnants suspended in the Void Realm looked intimidating enough, and even the Saints from the Inner and Outer Seas dared not act rashly, let alone them!

Everyone was afraid that being the first to act would make them cannon fodder!

"Hahahaha... Is it finally revealing its true form? I knew this Endless Soul Sea was originally a Tomb for ancient great demons and devils. When did it become a beautiful fairyland!"

Wan Tianchao, who had just had a great battle with Zhu Zixi, laughed loudly as he landed among the many Saints. He held a piece of Gold and Stone Essence in his hand, looking very satisfied.

Zhu Zixi ultimately gained no advantage from him, his face ashen, and killing intent occasionally flashing in his eyes.

"Demon Tomb?"

Upon hearing this, the other Saints present all frowned!

They had never heard this rumor, and even in the records of their predecessors, this was not mentioned.

It only said there was a great Opportunity here, with little other detailed information.

Rumble!!!

As if to confirm Wan Tianchao's words, the colossal rumbling continued, and after the mountain-like stone platforms cracked open, they actually rose even higher!

Black mountain bodies emerged from within, soaring upwards, becoming even more eerie than their initial appearance!

The massive black mountain bodies were like mountain Tombs. On each of these black mountain bodies stood a huge stone tablet!

The tablet indicated which great demon or devil's Divine Treasure was buried there!

As the black mountains appeared, demonic Qi instantly erupted, covering the sky and earth. The Soul Mountains, spanning across the Soul Sea, were like black true Dragons lying across heaven and earth!

Dark, eerie, domineering, and bloodthirsty Qi emanated from them!

This was the true face of the Endless Soul Sea!

How could this be a celestial mountain and wondrous land?

It was entirely composed of colossal Tombs!

Tombs formed by the burial of countless great demons and devils!

It was unimaginable what kind of existence that powerful individual of the Azure Dragon Clan was, to fill the entire Endless Soul Sea with Tombs!

And how did he suppress and kill so many terrifying beings!

It was simply unimaginable!

"Tombs, it really is Tombs!"

Liu Yueying and Li Tongshen stared, dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief.

They had never seen such an inconceivable place, and they couldn't imagine how the powerful individual of the Azure Dragon Clan had managed to suppress and kill all of them here back then!

"With so many Tombs, how many Treasures from these great demons and devils' lives must be buried? That powerful individual of the Azure Dragon Clan is truly a good person!"

Shen Tianxing, however, was overjoyed. He wasn't thinking that much.

Since he was here, all the Divine Treasures here were his. If others wanted to covet them?

They were dreaming!

Upon hearing Shen Tianxing say this, Liu Xianyun knew what he was planning.

Her beautiful eyes were full of smiles. This guy hadn't changed at all; he always wanted to grab benefits. These Saints were truly unlucky to encounter him.

But, so what?

The world where the strong reign supreme was that simple!

Whoever had the bigger fist was the ultimate truth!

"Are you planning to act now? Who knows how many Cultivators haven't arrived yet. Aren't you going to let them fall into the net?"

Liu Xianyun teased.

Given his personality, he shouldn't let go of any Cultivator who could enhance his Path of Killing Cultivation.

This wasn't his usual style of doing things!
