Chapter 802: Sun Moon Realm

A terrifying pressure descended upon his shoulders as if only by kneeling could he relieve this burden.

This pressure wasn’t physical but rather spiritual and mental.

It was a primal fear in the presence of beings with higher spiritual levels, akin to the overwhelming sense of insignificance one feels before towering mountains.

The spiritual level of the Black Divine was undoubtedly the strongest in the entire Boundless Sea.

Although he was currently only at the peak of the Fourth-Tier, his spiritual essence, however, remains superior to that of the Sixth-Tier.

Chen Fei lifted his head slightly, a faint glow emanating from his brow.

In the black-and-white world, the light columns of the Black Divine Barrier pierced into the sky, gradually permeating the entire firmament. Where the light columns collided, darkness began to spread.

This expanding darkness, though not engulfing the sky entirely, gave Chen Fei a peculiar sensation.

“Hum!”

As the Black Divine Barrier rapidly contracted, the purification array surrounding it suddenly burst forth with dazzling white light, forcefully halting the barrier’s transformation.

“Crackle!”

The purification array and the Black Divine Barrier began to wrestle, causing the ground around the Ethereal Lake to instantly swell and then shatter, spreading countless fine cracks in all directions.

In the blink of an eye, the cracks on the surface around the Black Divine Barrier had spread dozens of miles.

Chen Fei withdrew his gaze from the sky and looked towards the Black Divine Barrier. Each time it contracted, it brought with it immense force and an aura of annihilation.

Scanning around, Chen Fei noticed that where the Black Divine Barrier had receded, the exposed ground was charred black.

Upon closer inspection, the charred ground was covered with a thin layer of powder, the residue of crushed spiritual essence.

In the Boundless Sea, everything contained varying amounts of Energies of Heaven and Earth; it was just a matter of quant.i.ty. The ground’s transformation into this state clearly indicated it had just been struck by a powerful force.

If one were to remain within the Black Divine Barrier now, they would face the oppressive force of this power.

Zhao Ruizheng and his two companions appeared beside Chen Fei, sensing the changes in the Black Divine Barrier, their hearts filled with lingering fear.

If they had still been inside the barrier at this moment, the outcome would have been difficult to predict.

Zhao Ruizheng and his two companions glanced at Chen Fei, grateful they had heeded his advice to leave the barrier early. They hadn’t harbored any illusions about lingering to hunt monsters longer for additional contribution points; the situation was too precarious.

Though just yesterday, each pa.s.sing hour had represented substantial contributions, risking one’s life made those points meaningless.

“Snap!”

Acracking sound echoed from the purification array’s light columns, and the outer defenses began to destabilize, while the Black Divine Barrier showed signs of further contraction.

“Brother Chen, should we consider leaving now?” Zhao Ruizheng approached Chen Fei quietly.

Yesterday, Chen Fei had specifically advised Zhao Ruizheng and his companions to exchange their contribution points promptly.

Zhao Ruizheng and Zhao Tianyue had initially planned to acc.u.mulate more points for their desired items, but they had ultimately followed Chen Fei’s counsel and emptied their accounts.

If the Black Divine Barrier did indeed undergo an unexpected change, their acc.u.mulated contribution points might have been at risk. It was better to exchange them preemptively.

Even if it turned out to be a false alarm, their previous pace in hunting monsters ensured they could replenish their contribution points swiftly.

However, it seemed now that they might not have that luxury.

Just as Chen Fei was about to respond, his expression suddenly froze, and he looked up at the sky.

Zhao Ruizheng was slightly slower to react, but he too sensed something amiss. Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang were even slower to respond.

In the sky, at some point unnoticed, a sword shadow that seemed to pierce the eyes appeared.

Just a glance at this sword shadow gave the illusion of being blinded.

The sword shadow, just a glance at it, gave the illusion of being blinded.

Within its condensed and terrifying power, the sword shadow vibrated. In the next moment, it plunged directly into the purification array, instantly stabilizing its trembling.

Immediately after this, seven phantom blades appeared in the sky, one by one embedding themselves into the ground around the Black Divine Barrier, continuing to sustain the purification array.

Nineteen vague shadows appeared on these weapons, their forms indistinct, but just a glance filled one with a chilling sense of dread.

The spiritual essence trembled incessantly, prompting a swift retreat—it was an unstoppable force.

“Celestial Treasure! The Sun Moon Realm!” Zhao Ruizheng looked at the scene before him, his voice trembling slightly.

Chen Fei’s gaze fluctuated. He dared not use his Heavenly Eye to investigate, merely observing with his naked eyes.

The Sun Moon Realm—the pillar that supported the Sacred Land, suppressing its fortune for thousands of years.

In the Sun Moon Realm, only those with such power could be considered as governing a Sacred Land; otherwise, they would merely be among the top forces.

Even without using his Heavenly Eye, just observing with his naked eyes, Chen Fei could sense the awe-inspiring aura of the Sun Moon Realm. Every move seemed capable of reversing the cosmos.

The strongest power in the Boundless Sea, coveted by countless experts in the Mountain Sea Realms, tirelessly pursued the realm of martial arts.

Now, such power was right before him, with a formidable group of nineteen figures present.

For many experts below the Sun Moon Realm, encountering even one such figure in a lifetime was a dream. Their worlds rarely intersected.

Chen Fei’s gaze s.h.i.+fted from the figures of the Sun Moon Realm to the celestial weapons.

Celestial Treasure, treasures imbued with an even higher level of spiritual power, were exclusive to the Sacred Lands. Each possessed earth-shattering power, serving as the pinnacle treasures of their respective Sacred Lands.

At this moment of disturbance within the Black Divine Barrier, several Sacred Lands had brought out their Celestial Treasures to suppress it.

“Roar!”

As the Sun Moon Realm and the Celestial Treasures emerged, several earth- shaking roars reverberated through the air.

A savage, primordial aura swept through the surroundings, and in the sky appeared a colossal figure spanning several miles, landing abruptly on the purification array.

It was a Fifth-Tier Monster Emperor, the supreme among demonic beasts, now joining the fray.

In the Boundless Sea, aside from the Evil ent.i.ties shunned by all creatures, the most elite powers had converged here.

However, despite stabilizing the purification array briefly, it began to tremble again moments later, despite the collective suppression by numerous Fifth- Tier beings.

Though not tearing the light columns of the purification array like before, its tremors intensified.

In other words, even with nineteen Sun Moon Realm experts, seven Celestial Treasures, and over a dozen Monster Emperors, they couldn’t halt the changes in the Black Divine Barrier—they could only delay them.

Ripples appeared in the Black Divine Barrier as Mountain Sea Realm experts and Monster Kings rushed out. Each bore a weakened aura, their faces filled with dismay.

“It seems this purification array might not hold for much longer,” Tang Shouchang murmured quietly.

The auras of the Sun Moon Realm and Monster Emperors had already spread hundreds of miles around, drawing in the surrounding Energies of Heaven and Earth from thousands of miles away like a funnel.

Yet, despite this, all present from the Mountain Sea Realms could see that they couldn’t stop the s.h.i.+fting tide within the Black Divine Barrier.

At this moment, the many Sun Moon Realm experts and Monster Emperors could only strive to buy some time, ensuring all Mountain Sea Realm experts and Monster Kings safely exited the Black Divine Barrier.

Otherwise, given the way the barrier had contracted earlier, all beings except the monsters inside would perish, including even the peak Mountain Sea Realm experts.

The trembling of the purification array intensified continuously, but more and more Mountain Sea Realm experts and Monster Kings emerged from within.

“Everyone, come and infuse your elemental power!”

A voice echoed through the heavens and earth, the voice of a Sun Moon Realm expert.

All Mountain Sea Realm experts and Monster Kings moved forward, beginning to pour their own power into the purification array. Even those who had just emerged did the same.

Chen Fei approached the purification array and injected his own elemental power.

“Hum!”

The four Divine Palaces within Chen Fei trembled slightly. At this moment, Chen Fei felt as if he had become mortal, sitting in an uncontrollable carriage.

The carriage rolled violently, tossing Chen Fei up and down as if he might be thrown out at any moment.

Chen Fei’s brow furrowed slightly. The purification array was distributing its pressure onto the Mountain Sea Realm experts.

The ones bearing the brunt were undoubtedly the Sun Moon Realm experts and Monster Emperors. Even the residual pressure was proving challenging for the Mountain Sea Realm experts.

Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang quickly paled; their faces turned white. Facing such earth-shaking power with their early-stage Mountain Sea Realm strength was clearly insufficient.

Especially since their three Divine Palaces in the early stage weren’t fully interconnected, their ability to withstand pressure was even weaker.

Within moments, Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang grunted, their bodies trembling. Involuntarily, they took a few steps back, blood trickling from their mouths.

It wasn’t just Zhao Tianyue and Tang Shouchang—almost all early-stage Mountain Sea Realm experts couldn’t endure the force’s backlash. They staggered back, severing their connection with the purification array.

Only the elite forces and early-stage Mountain Sea Realm experts from the Sacred Lands managed to hold out a bit longer, but eventually, they too were forcefully shaken loose.

Chen Fei’s hand pressed tightly against the light column of the purification array. Torrents of overwhelming force surged into his body like a raging river. However, refined by the Suppressing Dragon Elephant, Chen Fei remained steadfast.

If it were just this force pus.h.i.+ng back, Chen Fei could stand here for a day and night without issue.

However, when Zhao Ruizheng was forcefully pushed back, Chen Fei also felt a surge of power pus.h.i.+ng him back several steps.

Facing the power of the Black Divine Barrier, Chen Fei knew that persisting any longer would be futile.

However, in this brief delay, everyone except those entangled and killed by the monsters inside the barrier—both Mountain Sea Realm experts and Monster Kings—had already retreated.

“Everyone, retreat further away!”

It was again the voice of the Sun Moon Realm expert from earlier. All Mountain Sea Realm experts and Monster Kings withdrew tens of miles.

The colossal bodies of the Monster Emperors began to ascend, and the eight Celestial Treasures lifted from the ground.

As all Sun Moon Realm experts and Monster Emperors departed, there was no one left to resist the Black Divine Barrier, and it began to contract wildly.

In just a few blinks of an eye, what had previously spanned hundreds of miles in diameter shrank to a point and then vanished into the sky, disappearing completely.
