Chapter 561: Chapter 560: All Powerhouses Arrive

He was thinking of nothing but getting revenge on Qin Feng, wanting to tear him limb from limb.

Shi Han watched Shi Wushuang’s expression with her beautiful eyes and sighed inwardly.

As the person closest to Shi Wushuang, she knew exactly what was on her fiancé’s mind.

But only those who had fought Qin Feng could understand his true power.

Several months ago, Qin Feng had been able to defeat a Celestial Lion Clan expert at the Martial Arts Giant Realm. According to Shi Han’s calculations, several months later...

...that man would only have grown more terrifying.

Even though Shi Wushuang had now awakened most of his Three-eyed Golden Lion bloodline, Shi Han didn’t believe he possessed the absolute power to suppress Qin Feng.

Even if he succeeded in killing Qin Feng, it would likely come at an immense cost.

But seeing how utterly confident Shi Wushuang was, Shi Han didn’t know how to begin persuading him.

Suppressing the worry in her heart, Shi Han gazed at the six people being steadily forced back by Yan Ge and Qi Xia’er.

"Those people may be strong, but they mostly rely on lucky encounters to obtain a few special Divine Abilities to get by!"

"Our greatest strength lies in ourselves. Other Divine Abilities are merely tools to protect us through our trials. These people have mistaken the branch for the root! Naturally, they’re no match for those two Inner Sect Disciples from the Star Sect!"

"Those two are no longer ordinary Inner Sect Disciples. You could call them the elite of the elite within the Star Sect! According to the Holy Temple’s intelligence, it would be more appropriate to call them Preparatory True Disciples!"

Shi Han’s expression turned grave. "This time, the Star Sect has sent out at least six Preparatory True Disciples!"

"So far, we know of Poison God Qian Kai, Moon Goddess Yue Ji, Six Paths Celestial King Wang Dao Yi, Ice God Ling Shuanghua, and Five Elements Monarch Tan Mingfeng. Rumor has it that Kunpeng’s Seed, Ye Ding, has come as well!"

The Leopard Maiden’s body flickered with lightning. "Perfect. We’d also like to test the mettle of these so-called ’elites of the elite’!"

Behind him, his golden wings were incredibly long, each golden feather like a sharp sword.

The Golden-winged Little Roc King said coolly, "You’ll get your chance."

Nearby, a handsome youth with dark brows and black hair smiled. "I’m rather interested in meeting these so-called Preparatory True Disciples of the Star Sect. It’s just a shame that only one of the three Sealed Marquis Geniuses showed up this time!"

Just then, Shi Han interjected, "Get ready to make your move. Those six can’t hold out against Yan Ge and Qi Xia’er for much longer!"

After a glance, the Leopard Maiden asked, "Is this Sea God Relic really that important?"

The Wood Race King with dark brows and black hair replied, "Thunder Maiden, you still don’t understand the value of the Sea God Relic. Our purpose for entering the Sea Soul Continent this time isn’t so much to stop those old Sea Race ghouls from reviving, but to seize the chance to enter the Sea God Hall!"

"Legend says this Sea Soul Realm is actually the Sea God’s Realm, which belonged to the Ancient Sea God. The Ancient Sea God was a True God acknowledged by heaven and earth. Before he fell, all of his Cultivation Techniques, and even the Sea God Venerable Position, were left behind in the Sea God Hall!"

"The Sea God Venerable Position?"

For a few moments, the auras of everyone present fell into disarray.

The Wood Race King continued, "This is a great opportunity for our Holy Temple as well. This is the first time the Sea Soul Realm has opened in several epochs. The knowledge of when it would open was originally only passed down among a few ancient Sea Race clans. If one of our Ancestors hadn’t left a message, we would have likely missed this chance!"

"I just don’t know how the Star Sect learned this secret. They actually managed to force open a passage themselves!"

The Leopard Maiden said, "In that case, I have a question. If the Sea Race knows the Sea God Hall might contain the Sea God Venerable Position, why do they seem so uninterested?"

Shi Han shook her head. "You’re mistaken. They are quite interested, but the risks don’t justify the reward. The Sea Soul Realm has a restriction: only Martial Artists below the Martial Arts Giant Realm are able to enter."

The Wood Race King nodded. "And it’s also a trap—a huge trap with tempting bait. The Sea God Venerable Position is that bait!"

"And the hunters?" the Leopard Maiden asked.

The Golden-winged Little Roc King replied, "The hunters are those old fossils from the Sea Race, of course. They’re a ruthless bunch."

ROAR!

Just then, an invisible roar shook the battlefield.

A terrifying, invisible head burst forth from above Yan Ge, who stood at the center of it all. It roared at the sky, and invisible cracks, like colorless lightning, spread out for an unknown distance.

The six figures surrounding him—Frost Snow King Xue Qingshuang, Blood Dragon Ao Kui, Sea Monster Aoye, Tenglong Mu Tieshan, Golden Water Lake Dragon Sun Aoziyang, and the King of Thousand Waters Sea Demon—suddenly clutched their ears, their faces contorted in pain.

’A Soul Element Great Divine Ability, Soul Roar!’ On the other side of the field, Qin Feng narrowed his eyes.

Yan Ge had used Soul Roar against him once before. Unfortunately for him, Qin Feng had severed both his legs with a single sword strike.

This Soul Roar was more than ten times stronger than the one Yan Ge had used in the Earth Secret Realm.

The six Sea Race experts at the Sea of Reincarnation Realm Peak surrounding him were instantly plunged into a state worse than death, their souls severely wounded.

"Incredible. This Yan Ge actually cultivates Soul Element Mystical Meanings. Look at the Spirit Patterns rippling from his body—a full seven of them! He’s comprehended at least seven Soul Mystical Meanings. Six are cyan Spirit Patterns, which are Basic Mystical Meanings, and one is gold, which is an Intermediate Soul Mystical Meaning!"

The Wood Race King clicked his tongue, his face a mask of astonishment.

"The Soul Element is one of the High-level Origins, reigning supreme over the multitude of Middle-tier and Low-tier Origins."

"A Martial Arts Strongman who has cultivated the Soul Origin holds a natural advantage when fighting Martial Artists who have only comprehended Middle-tier or Low-tier Origins."

"However, as everyone knows, the higher the level of an Origin, the more difficult it is to comprehend."

The Wood Race King himself had previously comprehended the Wood Origin, which is part of the Low-tier Five Elements Origins, but he had already sublimated it into the Creation Origin.

Creation Origin is also a High-level Origin!

Shi Wushuang smiled faintly. "It’s useless. You can tell that the seven Profound Mysteries he comprehended were all achieved through shortcuts. His foundation is shallow, and they are mostly basic ones."

"It’s obvious he hasn’t even condensed the most fundamental Dharma Realm."

The Dharma Realm is the symbol of having comprehended six or more Profound Mysteries and condensed one’s Origin.

Six figures were sent flying backward, their faces pale, and they collapsed with a crash at the foot of the stele!

Qin Feng watched this scene with cold eyes.

Yan Ge’s gaze was like lightning as it swept coldly over the six of them. "Worthless rabble. You dare contend with me for the Sea God Relic?!"

The woman by his side was as graceful as a celestial maiden, enough to make pearls and jade pale in comparison. Her silk ribbons danced, and her ethereal movements held the hint of a peerless blade.

For a moment, they intimidated the many "orioles" lying in wait.

Qin Feng’s gaze fell upon the sea-blue Relic in Yan Ge’s hand. He didn’t know the specific function of the Sea God Relic...

...but he was drawn to the incredibly pure essence it radiated. He had a feeling that if he could devour this Sea God Relic, it would have an unimaginable effect on the cultivation of his Black Water Demon Pill.

The Sea God Relic was rumored to have been formed from the condensation of the Sea God’s essence, energy, and spirit upon his death.

Qin Feng suppressed the urge to rush out immediately.

Qin Feng was certain that some of the other "orioles" hiding in the shadows would be more impatient than he was.

Yan Ge and Qi Xia’er were also clearly aware that they were being watched by numerous "orioles."

After defeating the six, they immediately began to move, intending to leave.

BOOM!

Just then, the earth suddenly trembled and the Earth Veins rumbled. Countless wooden vines as thick as an infant’s arm erupted toward the sky!

An expert could no longer hold back and was the first to strike!
