In an instant, it reached fifty kilometers.

Countless sounds within fifty kilometers appeared in Xu Qing’s divine perception at this instant.

There was the sound of water flowing, the roars of ferocious beasts, the sound of fish swaying their tails, the sound of sand moving with the undercurrents… In fact, there was even a sound that sounded like breathing coming from the Forbidden Sea itself.

It was bizarre and drawn out…

Everything appeared in Xu Qing’s divine perception. He had a feeling that as long as he wanted to, all these sounds could be used by him.

Hence, at the next instant, the area of fifty kilometers around him suddenly fell silent.

All the sounds were stripped away by Xu Qing’s thought and sent outside of fifty kilometers.

With the help of their sounds, the ripple continued to spread.

250 kilometers, 500 kilometers…

The cycle repeated.

Xu Qing was like a child who had just obtained a toy. He kept trying out various ways to play with this toy and also tested his limits.

Just like that, time flowed by.

After an unknown period of time, the ripples emitted by Xu Qing had spread endlessly under the repeated push.

It had long exceeded the range of Xu Qing’s soul perception.

During this period, countless sea beasts, a large number of divine creatures hidden at the bottom of the sea, and even some boats and ships on the surface of the sea were reflected in Xu Qing’s mind. However, they were no exception and didn’t sense anything.

Xu Qing didn’t pause on them at all.

He continued to spread out the sounds.

This lasted until a scene appeared in Xu Qing’s divine perception.

At an area of seabed extremely far away from where Xu Qing was, close to the Corpse Forbidden, there was a terrain that resembled a plain.

A huge formation had been set up on this underwater plain.

At the core of the array formation, two figures sat cross-legged.

These two figures were both wearing silver robes, revealing skin that was like the surface of an octopus.

They had no hair and human-like facial features. Moreover, even in their sitting posture, they were over 100 feet tall.

The cultivation energy they emitted were at peak of the Soul Accumulation two worlds.

From their special clothes and the structure of the array formation, it could be seen that these two were from a holy land.

This was indeed the truth. They were descenders from the same batch as Feng Lintao.

Back then, many teams from the holy land had descended in different areas of Wanggu.

The two of them had landed in the Forbidden Sea.

Moreover, during this period of time, they had gathered enough information and resources in the Forbidden Sea. Hence, they set up a guiding array formation at seabed to transmit a signal to the outside world.

Their respective cultivation bases circulated as they increased the power of the array formation to signal their holy land.

It had to be said that their luck wasn’t bad. From the moment they descended until now, the process was very smooth.

They almost didn’t encounter any obstacles. Even if they occasionally came into contact with some powerful divine creatures, they would avoid them in advance under their probing.

Now, seeing that everything was about to end, the two of them relaxed a little.

However, at that moment, cracking sounds suddenly rang out from one of them.

What made this sound was a jade slip he had placed in front of him.

This jade slip was dark-black and imprinted with complicated runes. It was made of special black jade. During this period of time, relying on its flickering, they were able to detect danger in advance many times.

At that moment, the jade slip seemed to have shattered on its own without flickering.

In an instant, these two holy land cultivators immediately opened their eyes, revealing surprise. At the same time, the cracking sound of the jade slip shattering didn’t dissipate. Instead, it instantly turned into a storm that swept toward them.

The surroundings trembled. The expressions of these two holy land cultivators changed and they immediately retreated. They released their perception and checked their surroundings. One of them even performed a series of hand seals with his right hand and pointed forward.

Immediately, a torrent surged out of the surrounding seawater and spread out in all directions under his control, stirring up sand at the bottom of the sea and shaking the dark stones in all directions.

He was searching for hidden dangers.

However, he found nothing.

Just as the two of them were feeling even more bewildered, a shocking scene appeared. All the sounds caused by their actions earlier didn’t spread out.

Just like the cracking sound of the jade slip, it transformed into a bizarre scene that possessed astonishing lethality. It suddenly swept through the two of them.

A rumbling sound echoed in the surroundings.

The two of them were in a state of turmoil. One of them immediately transmitted his voice.

‘There’s a god watching us!’

Even though it was a voice transmission, the instant it was transmitted, the instant his partner heard it, it transformed into bizarre killing intent again, causing their heads to tremble. Their faces were pale and their internal organs churned.

Terror rose in their hearts.

“The sounds of this place has been stolen!”

This realization surfaced in their minds at the same time.

They didn’t dare to continue speaking and quickly exchanged glances. After seeing their respective shock, they quickly fled upward.

However, the faster they fled, the louder the sounds they caused. It was the same for the rapids.

Hence, the bizarre killing intent formed by the sounds appeared again.

It formed a rumbling sound, continuing to damage them.

At the same time, from this area, all the fish, sea beasts, sand grains, plankton, and even all the seawater emitted different sounds to varying degrees.

Some could be heard and some couldn’t be heard, but it didn’t mean that they didn’t exist.

Now, it was like a band from the Forbidden Sea playing a world-shaking tune.

As the killing power continued to rise, the destructive force headed toward the two cultivators from all directions.

The rumbling sounds grew increasingly intense.

The hearts of these two holy land cultivators trembled. They spat out blood and each unleashed their own great worlds.

These illusory and corporeal great worlds resisted the bizarre attacks.

They even took out many magic treasures and kept trying to erase the sounds in the surroundings. In the end, after experiencing endless danger and enduring repeated attacks, suffering heavy injuries, they rushed out of the sea.

However, before they could heave a sigh of relief…

More and louder sounds from the outside world descended.

The sound of seabirds echoing in the sky.

The sound of waves spreading along with the sea.

The sound of the wind that was everywhere.

All the sounds in the surroundings erupted in unison at this moment, sweeping through everything with an unprecedented vastness.

Like lightning, the moment the two of them rushed out, they were directly enveloped.

From afar, these sounds formed a huge ball that emitted endless waves of terrifying might.

A voice echoed through the world.

“What were you doing at the seabed?”

As the voice appeared, an elegant purple figure walked into the world like a god.

He appeared outside the terrifying sound sphere and calmly looked at the two cultivators who were filled with horror.

This question had no need for an answer.

This was because the moment it rang out, the sound fused into the sound sphere and rumbled.

When it landed in the ears of these two holy land cultivators, they couldn’t hear what Xu Qing was saying at all. AU they heard was a vague murmur.

This murmur grew increasingly intense. As it repeated, an ancient power spread over crazily and greedily, permeating their minds and replacing their understanding, robbing them of the concept of their sounds.

Regardless of whether it was the sound of their bodies, souls, or even their own self, they were all stripped away.

The answer was naturally among them.

Xu Qing took a step and entered the seabed.

On the surface of the sea, the sound sphere turned blood-red. The two holy land cultivators inside were destroyed in body and soul.

The sound sphere also dissipated. The sounds inside carried the remnant will of the dead cultivators back to the world.

The surroundings were squeaky clean.

As for the underwater plain, Xu Qing walked toward the array formation step by step. He stared at the array formation and waved his hand.

Immediately, this place churned and the array formation collapsed.

Xu Qing shook his head.

“Although it is destroyed, the signal was already sent out earlier.”

Xu Qing thought about it and took out a jade slip. He then sent a voice transmission to Fenghai County, Huang Yan, and the others to tell them about this and let them make preparations in advance.

After that, Xu Qing disappeared from the spot, continuing to focus on comprehending his sound authority in the Forbidden Sea, while also searching for the bronze carriage.

Seven days later…

Seven shooting stars appeared in the Wanggu’s sky, flickering with resplendent light as they landed on Wanggu.

One of them landed on the Forbidden Sea between the Yinghuang Province and the Nanhuang Continent!
