"Walk."
Lu Sheng's words were concise and to the point, without any unnecessary embellishment.
He stomped his foot hard, and the hard black reef cracked instantly!
He was like a golden cannonball fired from a gun, skimming the surface of the sea and shooting towards the center of the Pacific Ocean that the old general had mentioned!
boom--!
Behind him, a white wave, stretching for a kilometer, was cleaved across the azure sea, lingering for a long time.
"Hmph, when it comes to speed, I've never lost!"
Not to be outdone, Luo Tianfei suddenly flapped her magnificent fiery phoenix wings.
A crimson streak of light pierced the sky, bringing with it a surge of heat that caused the seawater below to vaporize into a white mist, closely following behind Lu Sheng.
Two streaks of light, one gold and one red, raced at supersonic speeds across the vast, boundless true sea in a silent contest.
The deeper they went, the more solemn their expressions became.
The concentration of spiritual energy in the air had become so high that it was visible to the naked eye, turning into wisps of pale blue mist that swirled above the sea.
Each breath felt like swallowing a high-level spiritual crystal core.
The level 9 realm that the two had just broken through in the Sanqing Hall was rapidly stabilizing and solidifying under the nourishment of this abundant spiritual source.
However, beneath this vibrant ocean lurks a chilling terror.
Every now and then, enormous black shadows, comparable in size to mountains, would flash past in the deep sea below them. The faint aura they occasionally leaked far surpassed that of the previous level 10 sea beast.
But for some reason, these terrifying beings seemed uninterested in the two tiny creatures moving at high speed on the sea surface, merely swam indifferently in their own territory.
Two hours later.
As the two had ventured hundreds of kilometers into the Pacific Ocean, a massive, dark shadow shrouded in thick white fog loomed in the distance on the horizon ahead.
We've arrived at the mysterious continent!
However, it was less than 100 kilometers from the outline of the continent.
"Whoosh—!"
Lu Sheng and Luo Tianfei, who were traveling at high speed, suddenly stopped at almost the same time and hovered in mid-air.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing extreme solemnity in each other's eyes.
In their perception, the seemingly calm sea ahead was actually densely packed with thousands of powerful spiritual energy sources!
These auras, like countless brilliant stars suspended in the night sky, clearly divided the area into two "star regions".
Among them, there were many whose auras had reached the peak of level 8, and dozens of others had already firmly stepped into the threshold of level 9 powerhouses!
Even at the very core of those two "star regions," there was a mysterious, deep, and terrifying aura, like a black hole, that was faintly visible.
That is... an existence that surpasses level 9!
"Conceal your aura."
Lu Sheng's voice echoed in Luo Tianfei's mind.
Luo Tianfei nodded, and the divine fire on her body completely subsided. The two of them, like two falling leaves, silently approached that strange sea area.
The moment they carefully navigated around a massive, mountain-like coral ring and finally saw the view ahead.
Even with their strong will and years of experience with mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the two were utterly shocked by the bizarre scene before them.
Ahead lay a vast expanse of sea.
On the left side of the sea, thousands of powerful human warriors hovered densely.
Some rode flying swords, others rode strange beasts, and still others stood in mid-air. Each of them exuded a fierce aura, clearly elites who had fought their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
On the right side of the sea, however, was an even larger army of drowning victims in various forms!
The ferocious merman warriors wield bone forks; the enormous sea beast knights are surrounded by black water; and there are even some bizarre beings with human upper bodies and octopus tentacles lower bodies.
Two sworn enemies, who should have been locked in a life-or-death struggle, were now facing each other at a distance of no more than a thousand meters, clearly separated by a distinct line.
There was no fighting.
There was no roar.
There wasn't even a single curse.
The entire sea was eerily silent.
All eyes, whether human or drowned, were fixed on the mysterious continent shrouded in thick fog in the distance, their gazes filled with greed, longing, and a deep sense of dread.
It's as if they're all waiting for a specific moment to arrive.
"What are they waiting for?"
Luo Tianfei voiced her question in Lu Sheng's mind.
Lu Sheng did not answer; his dark golden vertical pupils were silently scanning the entire room.
However, at that moment...
Their arrival was like a pebble thrown into a stagnant pond, instantly shattering the eerie balance.
Two powerful and domineering level 9 auras, like two searchlights in the night, descended upon this sea area without warning.
"Um?"
"Two more have arrived?"
In an instant, thousands of gazes on the sea focused on Lu Sheng and Luo Tianfei!
On the human side, many powerful figures frowned, their eyes filled with scrutiny and wariness.
Meanwhile, within the drowned ranks, several terrifying generals let out low growls, their crimson eyes flashing with undisguised killing intent.
Feeling immense pressure from all directions, Luo Tianfei frowned slightly and instinctively moved closer to the human camp.
In any case, it's always right to reunite with your clansmen and find out the situation first.
Lu Sheng also noticed the several level 9 auras in the human camp that were no weaker than his own. He nodded, seemingly preparing to take Luo Tianfei with him.
But just as he was about to take a step...
A familiar voice, tinged with a mixture of arrogance and surprise, suddenly rang out from the opposing army of drowned souls!
"It's you?!"
The voice, clear and proud, sounded particularly abrupt on the lifeless sea.
Luo Tianfei was about to step into the human camp when she suddenly froze.
She turned her head in surprise, looking in the direction the sound came from, her eyes filled with confusion.
Who?
Who's calling this bastard?
Moreover, the sound was coming from the drowning camp on the other side?
Lu Sheng also stopped walking.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a hint of surprise flash in those calm, dark gold vertical pupils.
At the forefront of the dark, menacing army of drowned men could be seen on the other side.
A young man dressed in black armor, with a cold face and carrying a crimson spear on his back, was looking at him with astonishment.
It was none other than Xiao Yan, the eldest son of the King of Burning Sea City!
Beside Xiao Yan, a pretty girl with a high ponytail suddenly lit up her beautiful eyes the moment she saw Lu Sheng. She was so excited that she almost jumped up and waved her little hands frantically.
"Human brother! It really is you!"
Xiao Ling's clear and melodious voice rang out unabashedly throughout the venue.
This scene stunned everyone present who was watching them.
What's going on?!
On the human side, thousands of powerful figures looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise and confusion.
How does this newly arrived level 9 powerhouse know the Drowned One?
And judging from their appearance, their relationship is quite close?
In particular, Xiao Ling's affectionate address of "human brother" caused many people to frown, and their gazes toward Lu Sheng instantly shifted from wariness to deep hostility.
"Hmph, so he's a traitor!"
"No wonder his aura is so strange; he must have been practicing some kind of evil or heretical cultivation method!"
A few whispered words reached Luo Tianfei's ears clearly, instantly chilling her beautiful face.
She turned her head sharply to look at Lu Sheng, her phoenix eyes filled with a hint of questioning.
However, Lu Sheng seemed not to hear the surrounding discussions, nor did he care about the hostile gazes.
His face was completely devoid of any extra expression.
Under the gaze of thousands of people, some astonished, some hostile, and some curious, he made a move that shocked everyone.
Instead of joining the human camp to explain anything, he did not.
Instead, he casually waved his hand at Luo Tianfei, who looked completely bewildered, and said:
"Wait here for me."
The words fell.
He ignored everyone.
With his hands in his pockets and his feet treading on the undulating sea, he strolled leisurely, step by step, straight toward the murderous army of drowning men opposite him!
He walked towards Xiao Yan!
