Chapter 1721 Lesson 1: Have Reverence!
this moment.
The last trace of hesitation vanished from the elder's cloudy eyes, replaced by a gleaming light, like a sharp blade being drawn from its sheath!
"Then please don't blame this old man for being rude!"
The dignity of this forbidden area must not be desecrated!
The moment the words fell—
Boom!
The white-bearded elder was like a sleeping ancient beast suddenly awakening!
The ancient runes on the gray scale armor on His body suddenly lit up, and a vast and unparalleled demonic power suddenly erupted!
A massive amount of seawater was violently pushed out and compressed, creating a terrifying, tangible pressure.
Like a raging torrent erupting from a million underwater volcanoes at the same time, it crushed the void with its momentum and relentlessly pressed down on 'Sha Minghong', who was less than ten feet away!
Such oppressive power would cause even a powerful demon in the late Nascent Soul stage to suffer broken bones and trembling in fear!
however!
At the very center of the oppressive storm, 'Sha Minghong' was only seen with his magnificent black robe inlaid with gold fluttering backwards as the demonic storm blew.
He himself was like an unmelting ice reef, barely even flinching, his body remaining completely still!
The colossal wave of demonic power, powerful enough to crush mountains, crashed into him about ten feet in front of him, as if he had struck an invisible abyss vortex.
Not even a ripple could truly reach Him!
See this scene.
An elder of the Black Tiger Shark clan couldn't suppress a genuine look of horror deep within his murky eyes.
The prince before me... is far more than his apparent cultivation level suggests!
But the dignity of the forbidden area is paramount!
Roar!
A low, suppressed roar of anger burst from the old man's throat!
His body was covered in dark red demonic markings, like living blood vessels rapidly coursing beneath his skin!
The black iron shark tooth crutch burst forth with a dazzling blood-red light!
The next instant!
A terrifying pressure, several times stronger than before, erupted forth.
Like a raging wave drawn from the depths of the Netherworld, carrying an even colder, ancient, and violent aura, like several invisible, ancient evil dragons, it once again strangled 'Sha Minghong'!
The underwater reefs silently turned to dust!
But... for 'Shark Minghong'—
This time, He didn't even bother to furrow his brow.
That ancient pressure, enough to make even ordinary half-saints take their guard up, crashed into Him, yet it was like a spring breeze brushing against Mount Buzhou. Apart from stirring up a tiny spatial ripple, it couldn't shake Him in the slightest!
"enough!"
He even waved his hand impatiently, as if shooing away a few annoying water fleas, but his gaze had already passed over the old man in front of him and was cast into the darker shadows deep in the canyon.
The voice wasn't loud, but it carried a calm and coldness that commanded everything, clearly piercing through all obstacles:
"Elders... you've had enough of this show."
"Show yourselves, all of you."
"today."
His gaze returned to the face of the old man blocking his way, then swept over the shadows, and finally transformed into a pure majesty that could freeze one's soul:
"I will enter this forbidden area for meditation today."
While talking.
Standing in mid-air, 'Sha Minghong' no longer concealed or suppressed in the slightest.
It was as if a dormant sun within Him had suddenly awakened!
Buzz...boom!
A vast, boundless, supremely powerful, and yet anciently cold and murderous aura erupted from His body like a giant abyss that had been dormant for billions of years suddenly bursting open!
Its power surged, rising higher and higher, soaring into the sky and breaking through the sea!
Like a limitless demonic pillar piercing straight into the void!
Almost instantly!
The terrifying aura emanating from him was like boiling water splashed on snow, easily annihilating and disintegrating the cold, oppressive force of the tomb-guarding elder in his desperate gamble!
He then steadily...surpassed this peak-level elder who had guarded the forbidden area for thousands of years!
That power, cold and pure, filled with the contradiction of destruction and rebirth, made the white-bearded elder's hand holding the cane stiffen!
See this scene!
call out!call out!call out!call out!
Silently, as if space had been sliced open by an invisible blade!
Four withered figures, as deep as abyss and as imposing as a mountain, stepped out from the most hidden spatial folds near the canyon entrance!
They no longer lie in wait, no longer stand by.
With a flash, they appeared beside the white-bearded elder as if by teleportation, standing in a row!
Each of them was dressed in ancient-style, secret-made leather or bone armor that exuded a decaying yet powerful aura; some wielded strange weapons, while others formed mysterious hand seals.
His deep, lifeless eyes, like those of an ancient well, stared at 'Sha Minghong'.
Though they remained silent, the overwhelming and oppressive aura, as deep and unfathomable as a bottomless trench, had already provided the answer—
Hold on to the death!
"Your Highness," the tallest elder, wielding a white bone trident, spoke, his voice as cold as two pieces of black iron rubbing together, devoid of any emotional fluctuation.
"This place is the forbidden ground of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan, where the ancestral souls of past generations are enshrined."
Without the Demon Lord's decree, even though... Your Highness is of noble blood, you are not allowed to step into this place!
This is… an ancestral precept!
He paused, then his withered fingers tightened slightly, and the tip of the bone trident emitted a deadly, pale white light:
"Your Highness, please leave immediately."
Don't make things difficult for us.
Silence fell.
The pressure has increased dramatically.
"Ah……"
Their response was a very soft laugh from 'Sha Minghong,' filled with mockery and absolute confidence.
He even slowly shook his head, as if regretting something.
Then, He finally spoke, His gaze sweeping over the four newly appeared elders, whose auras were even more ancient and obscure, His eyes looking at a group of reefs about to crumble.
Its voice was like the cold wind of the deepest hell, calm and ruthless, yet carrying an undeniable sense of judgment:
"Take action."
"I..." He gently opened his palm, his posture casual to the point of provocation.
"...I'm only giving you one chance."
"If you still harbor any illusions..." A chilling smile curled at the corner of Sha Minghong's lips:
There will be no... second chance!
Madness!
This is blatant and complete arrogance that disregards all ancestral teachings and authority!
It was the ultimate humiliation for their semi-respectable status!
"presumptuous!"
"You brat! How dare you be so arrogant!"
"Evil creature! You're looking for death!"
"How dare you act so wildly before our ancestral tombs!!"
……
In an instant, the volcano erupted!
The seemingly calm and collected elders of the Black Tiger Shark clan, whose anger, pride, and determination to protect their ancestral tomb had been accumulating for countless years, were completely ignited by this!
The roar, mixed with terrifying demonic power, shook the seabed!
The elder leading the clan, wielding a halberd, had his hair and beard bristling, and his eyes were brimming with murderous intent!
They didn't test us at all!
No fancy tricks are needed!
The guardians of the ancestral tombs have their own pride!
Boom, boom! ! !
The five semi-saint elders attacked simultaneously!
The white-haired old man's black iron cane shot out a dark red blood aura like lava.
The elder wielding the halberd tore through space with his bone fork, unleashing a chilling wave of white bones that echoed with the wails of ten thousand ghosts.
The other three either spewed out a torrent of bone-corroding black water, summoned a giant seal as large as a mountain, or condensed thousands of ice crystal poisonous spikes!
Five destructive energies, each with distinct properties yet perfectly complementing and overlapping, instantly transformed into a turbid torrent capable of eroding space, tearing apart laws, and annihilating even the most advanced Nascent Soul cultivators!
Where the torrent passed...
Space collapse!
The light is extinguished!
With an unwavering determination to annihilate everything, it completely submerged and devoured the place where 'Sha Minghong' stood!
At its core, the light was unimaginably intense...
It was not pure chaos and tyranny, but rather strangely coalesced and compressed, forming a pure light that made one's soul tremble.
Even the elders, whose cultivation was as profound as that of a half-saint, instinctively looked away.
They feared that the pure energy light would burn their souls.
Right here at the heart of this destruction, where everything seems destined to be reduced to nothingness...
A voice pierced through the roar of energy and spread out calmly.
"Destroy."
The voice was not loud, even somewhat low, yet it possessed an indescribable penetrating power.
It even disregarded the barriers of space, clearly reaching the ears and hearts of everyone present.
The voice was so indifferent, as if it came from beneath ancient ice, devoid of any emotion, yet it exuded a supreme majesty that looked down upon all living beings and whose words carried the weight of law.
It seemed like an inviolable golden rule.
The utterance of that single word, "indifference," seemed to invoke the highest, most mysterious rules.
The core of the light, which was impossible to look at directly, suddenly collapsed inward!
It was as if I was being gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand that controlled all laws!
The torrent of energy that was surging and roaring, destroying everything, vanished silently, like a fragile bubble.
That terrifying power, capable of destroying an entire region, vanished without a trace, without even causing the slightest ripple.
Only a deathly silence and distorted spatial rifts, shattered by the aftershocks of energy, remain, silently lamenting.
"hiss……"
Witnessing this scene, the elders of the Black Tiger Shark clan couldn't help but feel a ripple in their hearts.
A look of surprise flashed across their calm, deep eyes, like a dragonfly skimming the water.
However, this surprise was quickly replaced by a deeper indifference and arrogance.
In their view, such a miracle of reversing the tide of fate was far beyond the power that His Highness 'Sha Minghong' himself could possess.
'It must have been aided by some kind of external treasure!' an elder thought to himself with certainty.
'otherwise,
"How dare this mere junior be so insolent, daring to be our enemy?"
"Not bad." Another elder exchanged thoughts silently.
The ultimate principle of heaven and earth is the conservation of all things.
The more powerful the secret technique that could forcibly erase our combined attack, the greater the cost, and the shorter its duration would inevitably be... pitifully short!
They exchanged a glance, both seeing the understanding and a hint of barely perceptible contempt in each other's eyes.
'Just endure this moment of glory... Once the time limit of the secret technique expires, the backlash of magical power will... What will happen then?'
Hmph, it's like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
A chilling thought echoed among them.
Just then, the light completely disappeared.
The figure of 'Sha Minghong' stood as firmly as a rock at the center of the destructive torrent.
His clothes were spotless, and his simple, dark robe was as smooth as new.
Not even the slightest wrinkle appeared on the cuffs.
The overwhelming attack that had previously struck down any half-saint level expert was, to Him, like…
It was all a fleeting illusion, leaving no trace whatsoever.
Only the surrounding collapsed, shattered, and chaotic scene silently testified to how terrifying what had just happened was.
He slowly raised his eyelids, his gaze like a tangible, icy sword, sweeping over the elders in front of him, whose expressions still held lingering astonishment.
A thin, cold smile curled into an undisguised mockery, followed by a chilling laugh that echoed clearly in the deathly silence.
"Ha... to receive without giving in return?"
That's impolite!
Such generous gifts from the elders…
He paused slightly, and his aura suddenly became incredibly fierce and dangerous, like an ancient ferocious beast that had finally opened its eyes after a long slumber.
"Now, it's my turn... to retaliate!"
The last syllable hadn't even fully faded!
'Sha Minghong', standing proudly in mid-air, flipped his hand over with a gentle movement!
"Buzz!"
The void trembled violently!
A gigantic, alluring cage, its veins interwoven and flowing with crimson light like those of a living creature, appeared out of nowhere without warning!
This cage is not a physical form of an ordinary prison; it is more like a concrete manifestation of rules formed by countless blood curse runes instantly linked together!
Its appearance was so fast that it exceeded the limits of what the mind could process, as if it skipped the process of "appearance" altogether—
Coming!
A crimson cage of light descended!
The scope perfectly encompasses all the elders of the Black Spirit Tiger Shark clan!
fast!
Incredibly fast!
That speed exceeded the limits of a Nascent Soul cultivator's divine sense!
Several semi-saint level experts didn't even have time to react, let alone activate their protective abilities.
Or should we unleash our defensive magic weapons?
Faced with that absolute, overwhelming speed, their mind and body became fatally disconnected!
When their divine senses realized the danger and attempted to take action...
Their vision was filled with an endless expanse of crimson!
The cold, bone-chilling, and eerily attractive scarlet light transformed into invisible chains, instantly binding their limbs and bones, and imprinting itself into their meridians and dantian!
A sense of stagnation originating from the depths of one's being instantly swept through the entire body!
They are all trapped inside the scarlet cage!
Not a single one escaped the net!
From the moment the palm was turned over to the moment the prisoner's cage was placed on top, it was only a split second!
This decisiveness, this sharpness, this terrifyingly exquisite control of timing are all on full display!
Only those who have experienced countless battles and walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood can possess such... domineering and unparalleled spirit and methods!
Inside the cage.
After a brief silence came a storm of anger and mockery!
"Humph!
A mere layer of blood curse barrier dares to try and trap us half-saints?
wishful thinking! "
One of the most hot-tempered elders roared first, his body surging with violent gales, attempting to tear apart the surrounding scarlet light barrier.
Another gaunt old man, his eyes gleaming with a cold, almost didactic light, stared intently at the blurry figure outside the cage, his voice piercing the light barrier:
Your Highness!
Today, I, an old man, will offer my blood as a sacrifice to teach you a lesson—
When facing someone far stronger than yourself, always be in awe!
Those who resort to tricks and risky tactics will ultimately get burned!
