Chapter 1132: Chapter 1151: Sea of Chaotic Mists
The four Saint Kings suddenly woke up, realizing they had been too impulsive. The Tailing Saint King quickly smiled and said, "Daoist Ye, don’t misunderstand us. We were just a bit excited upon seeing the Heavenly Essence Pill. Please keep it safe and be very careful with it."
"Indeed, I feel the same way." The Dao Yun Saint King smiled awkwardly, although his gaze towards the Heavenly Essence Pill was intensely fervent.
"Daoist, the Heavenly Essence Pill is a supreme treasure. This trip was certainly not taken in vain." Jiuqu Old Mother smiled as she spoke, but the heat in her eyes did not fade.
It should be known that the Heavenly Essence Pill is an elixir that can elevate one’s realm. How could they not hold it in high regard?
Ye Xuan could completely feel the fiery gazes of the four. He toyed with the elixir in his hand, his eyes glancing mysteriously, then smiled at the Yinhai Saint King and said, "Daoist Yinhai, we have already acquired so many treasures, but you haven’t been so lucky. Let this Heavenly Essence Pill be placed with you. Consider it a good omen to rid yourself of bad luck."
As Ye Xuan spoke, he indeed handed the Heavenly Essence Pill to the Yinhai Saint King, which made the Yinhai Saint King overjoyed. He hurriedly accepted the Heavenly Essence Pill, looking at Ye Xuan with extreme gratitude.
"Daoist Ye, from now on, you are a friend of my Yinhai lineage. No matter what happens in the future, our Yinhai lineage will go through fire and water without hesitation for you." The Yinhai Saint King assured, patting his chest.
"You’re too serious." Ye Xuan replied with a slight smile.
"Hmph, don’t get cocky. Do you think just because the Heavenly Essence Pill is with you, it’s yours? These treasures are to be equally divided according to the agreement." The Dao Yun Saint King sneered at the Yinhai Saint King, a cold smile curling at his lips.
"Alright, the next barrier is the ten-thousandth one. If I’m not mistaken, it must contain something more precious than the Heavenly Essence Pill." The Tailing Saint King timely interjected.
"I’ll do it!"
With the Heavenly Essence Pill in hand, the Yinhai Saint King looked radiant, no longer showing his previous somber demeanor. He unleashed the cultivation of a Great Saint King, throwing a punch at the barrier ahead.
Bang!
An astonishing event occurred. The Yinhai Saint King’s full-strength attack didn’t break the barrier; instead, he stumbled back.
"How is this possible?"
The Yinhai Saint King halted his steps, staring blankly at the barrier ahead. Although he knew the barriers would grow stronger going forward, he was utterly shocked that even his full attack couldn’t make the ten-thousandth barrier budge.
"Just as I thought!" The Tailing Saint King narrowed his eyes, his voice as faint as a mosquito.
"Hmm?"
Ye Xuan had been secretly observing the Tailing Saint King. Although the other’s voice was barely audible, Ye Xuan heard it completely, and he also noticed a greedy flash in the Tailing Saint King’s eyes, indicating he must know something.
"Let me try!"
The Dao Yun Saint King stepped forward, directly casting a Great Technique towards the barrier, but like the Yinhai Saint King, he failed to break it.
Jiuqu Old Mother’s brows furrowed as she gathered a Saint King Technique in her hand. However, before she could act, the Tailing Saint King stopped her, saying, "No need to try."
"This ten-thousandth barrier cannot be broken without Creation Realm cultivation. Even if we strike for tens of millions of years, we cannot break through." The Tailing Saint King said in a deep voice.
"Daoist Tailing, it seems you are very knowledgeable about this Tianyuan Kingdom." Ye Xuan coldly smiled.
"Daoist Ye, don’t misunderstand. I also learned this from an ancient text. If we want to break this barrier, we must work together to shatter it." The Tailing Saint King replied.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let’s get to work quickly!" The Yinhai Saint King urged.
"Let’s do it, everyone."
The Tailing Saint King struck forward with a great force towards the barrier ahead.
At the same time, the three other Saint Kings also unleashed their strongest techniques towards the barrier. Only Ye Xuan’s eyes shifted, throwing just a single punch without using his full strength.
Something’s strange!
Ye Xuan had always suspected the Tailing Saint King of something foul. This person had issues manifesting the full power of his Nine Heavens Saint King cultivation, yet now he didn’t hesitate to explode with such a formidable force.
Rumble!
Suddenly, when the combined attacks of the five hit the ten-thousandth barrier, something extremely terrifying happened.
"Retreat quickly."
Jiuqu Old Mother screamed in horror because the ten-thousandth barrier didn’t shatter; instead, it erupted with extremely frightening light, engulfing the five of them.
"The barrier’s been triggered!" Yinhai Saint King trembled, shouting, retreating swiftly.
Ye Xuan’s expression turned dark as water. Sensing something was amiss earlier, he had withdrawn at the first opportunity. However, what troubled Ye Xuan was that the light from the barrier had already shrouded them, making escape impossible.
Woo-woo-woo!
Strange winds howled, fog engulfed the heavens. Ye Xuan only felt everything spinning. When he opened his eyes again, he was in a fog where he couldn’t see his hand before him.
"Where is this? Where is this?"
Suddenly, Yinhai Saint King’s sharp voice came from beside Ye Xuan, accompanied by the chaotic utterances of the Tailing Saint King and the others.
"Everyone, don’t move, don’t make any rash moves; we have left the mountain path and fallen into the Chaos Fog Sea."
Unable to see anything, Ye Xuan could only hear the Tailing Saint King’s voice. A few blurry silhouettes appeared in front of him, indicating that the Tailing Saint King was right next to him.
"My cultivation? Why can’t I use my cultivation?"
Suddenly, Jiuqu Old Mother screamed in terror, her voice filled with utter panic.
"Spiritual Energy? Why is there no trace of Spiritual Energy in this Chaos Fog Sea?" Dao Yun Saint King howled, trembling.
Listening to their panicked voices, Ye Xuan’s brows tightly furrowed because he also couldn’t summon his cultivation, sensing that the Chaos Fog Sea seemed to be locking away his cultivation, unable to mobilize any of it.
"Do not make a sound. This Chaos Fog Sea is a grand design of the Tianyuan Kingdom, transplanted from the Chaos Starry Sky. Terrifying creatures dwell within; if discovered, we’re all doomed." The Tailing Saint King warned in a low voice.
Silence, deathly silence.
No one spoke again, an oppressive atmosphere grew, filled with unspeakable terror.
"Where is everyone? We mustn’t get separated." Jiuqu Old Mother broke the silence in a low voice.
"I’m here." Dao Yun Saint King, being the closest to Jiuqu Old Mother, quickly joined her.
"Is that Daoist Ye?" Yinhai Saint King saw Ye Xuan’s vague outline beside him and whispered, testing.
"It’s me."
Ye Xuan replied in a deep voice, glancing around the surroundings, a hint of fierce hostility flashing in his eyes.
While unable to use his cultivation, the Power of Silence Annihilation and Power of Space-Time within Ye Xuan remained unaffected. Moreover, his physical body was incredibly formidable, able to roughly discern the surrounding environment with his eyes.
