On the other side of the seal beneath Mercenary City was an extremely vast world. It was so vast that even if the Tian Yuan Continent, the Beast God Continent, the sea realm, and the Wasteland Continent were added together, they would not even be half the size of this world.
The energy of the world there was extremely dense, far denser than the energy of the world on the Tian Yuan Continent. Most importantly, the origin energy that had vanished from the Tian Yuan Continent existed in this world. The various resources were extremely plentiful as well, so everything seemed perfect. Perhaps the only flaw was that the sun of this world was red. It was as beautiful as blood, shining with endless red light. It dyed the entire world blood-red, adding a sense of evilness to the world.
There were not a lot of Holy Emperor experts on the Tian Yuan Continent. Even across the entire continent, including all the independent Holy Emperor experts who remained in seclusion, there would not be more than a thousand of them. As for Saint Emperors, they were even rarer. Even if the Tian Yuan Continent, the sea realm, and the Beast God Continent were added together, there would only be nine of them.
However, Holy Emperor experts could be seen everywhere in this blood-red world. Their numbers were enough to stun people. Even the number of Holy Emperor experts was far greater than the total number of Holy Emperor experts on the Tian Yuan Continent.
At the very center of the blood-red world, there was a mountain that spanned several million square kilometers. This mountain was called the World Mountain, and it was the largest mountain range in the world. At the same time, it was the most terrifying forbidden zone in the world.
Not only were there countless powerful beasts in the World Mountains, but there were also many unknown dangers. Even Holy Emperor experts could only move about in the outskirts of the World Mountains. Once they set foot in the central region, they would most likely die. Without any exaggeration, the central region of the World Mountains was the grave of Holy Emperor experts.
At the same time, the central region was not the most terrifying part of the World Mountains. The most terrifying part was the central region of the World Mountains, the huge mountain that was several tens of thousand meters tall.
The mountain was like a heavenly pillar, supporting the vast sky of this world. The entire mountain was shrouded in a faint red mist, causing the mountain to be faintly discernible, making it appear even more mysterious. Moreover, the space halfway up the mountain was in an extremely unstable state all year round. The space there was violently twisting, and spatial cracks of various sizes would appear from time to time. These spatial cracks would touch the mountain from time to time, and they would immediately cause the mountain rocks to disappear without a trace. Not even a speck of dust was left behind. It was extremely terrifying.
Once one approached the pillar-like mountain range, they would enter the central region of the World Mountains.
That was the central region of the World Mountain, which was also known as the depths of the World Mountain. Even those who had surpassed Saint Emperor and reached the Origin realm needed to carefully advance in the depths of the World Mountains. If they were sucked into a spatial crack due to a moment of carelessness, they would die even if they were at the Origin realm.
In the past, the depths of the World Mountains had devoured the lives of many Origin realm experts over the countless years of history. As a result, the depths of the World Mountains had become a forbidden zone that even Origin realm experts were unwilling to set foot in easily.
However, at this moment, a large group of people had gathered at the peak of the mountain that was several hundred thousand meters tall at the very center of the World Mountains. There were over five hundred people, and all of them wore black robes with a strange circular pattern embroidered on them. At the center of the pattern was a huge, majestic divine hall.
The pattern was the symbol of the sacred hall that ruled the world, the Sacred Spirit Hall.
The Sacred Spirit Hall's status in the blood-red world was equivalent to the imperial palace of an empire. It was the symbol of the highest authority in the world.
The group of people in black clothes were extremely powerful as well. They were all experts of the Holy Emperor, and there were quite a few peak Holy Emperor experts among them. Any single one of them would be an expert that the ten protector clans would fear if they were on the Tian Yuan Continent. However, the five hundred Holy Emperor experts did not even dare to breathe too loudly. They all stood there silently, like they were made of wood. They did not move at all.
At the very front of the group, over forty experts of various ages stood in a row. They stood there silently as well. The presences they gave off were actually even more powerful than the Holy Emperor experts.
If they were elephants, the Holy Emperor experts would be ants. They were extremely weak.
The experts had all surpassed the Holy Emperor and reached the Origin realm. Eight of them had even reached Returnance.
However, without any exception, all of them concealed their presences and stood there like statues. They all held their breaths as they stared at the man before them. Quite a few of their eyes were filled with deep respect and fear.
This was a black-robed man with a stalwart figure. He stood there quietly with his back to the crowd, giving off a feeling of indomitable spirit. It was as if he was the sky, the ruler of the world. His figure seemed to have merged with the world, but it also gave off the illusion that the world was beneath his feet.
A heavy, dark, metal sword hovered beside him. It flickered with a dark light and gave off a powerful glow. Although the sword remained stationary, the tremendous presence it gave off was enough to make the eight Returnance experts behind him shiver inside.
A thousand meters in front of the black-clothed man was a pitch-black tunnel. The space around the tunnel violently pulsed and twisted.
"Spiritking, may I ask if we can break through the seal this time?" At this moment, a Returnance expert at the back asked.
The black-clothed man at the very front was the ruler of the Sacred Spirit Hall, the ruler of the world, the Spiritking.
The Spiritking was a legendary figure in the World of Forsaken Saints. He possessed the greatest talent for cultivation and the greatest comprehension ability. He had reached Reciprocity in just over eight hundred years and created many powerful abilities himself.
When he had first reached Reciprocity, he had challenged the only three Reciprocity experts of the World of Forsaken Saints.
The first Reciprocity expert was at mid Reciprocity, but he had been slain in ten moves by the Spiritking, who had just reached Reciprocity. The second and third Reciprocity experts were at mid Reciprocity and late Reciprocity respectively. In the end, the two of them fought the early Reciprocity Spiritking for four hours before dying to his sword as well.
The three Reciprocity experts were originally the people in charge of the sacred hall. They were known as the three Spiritkings, but the black-clothed man had taken the throne after slaying the three veteran Spiritkings all by himself. He had become the new Spiritking, the only Spiritking in the World of Forsaken Saints.
Although the new Spiritking had only broken through to Reciprocity recently and was only at early Reciprocity, all the Origin realm experts of the World of Forsaken Saints did not doubt that the Spiritking could take on the weakest Godhood expert.
The difference between Reciprocity and Godhood was like a chasm. It was not just a difference of cultivation between the Holy Emperor and the Holy Emperor. Instead, it was the difference between the Origin realm and Godhood.
The Spiritking possessed the battle prowess of Godhood experts at early Reciprocity. Even though he was only at the weakest Godhood expert, it was still shocking.
"The person who cast down this seal in our World of Forsaken Saints really is powerful. No wonder all the Origin realm experts of our world were not his opponent back then. It's because the seal can only be broken by Godhood experts. The reason why I was able to break through the seal so easily was probably because no one was controlling it. However, there's an Origin realm expert in the other world maintaining the seal, so it won't be so easy to break through, "said the Spiritking. His voice was extremely nonchalant, but it possessed a certain charm. Even though he was a man, his voice was extremely pleasant to the ear.
"Spiritking, can't we succeed this time?" A beautiful woman who only seemed to be in her twenties gently asked. Her voice was filled with charm, as if she could steal the souls of people. The woman was one of the eight Returnance experts.
"Although there's an Origin realm expert maintaining the seal on the other side, I definitely have the confidence to break through the seal since I've come here this time. However, maintaining the seal requires a tremendous amount of energy. I'll waste away the Origin realm expert's energy first. Once he's basically exhausted, I'll use the Seal-breaking Technique and break through the seal on the other side," said the Spiritking indifferently. At this moment, the tunnel leading to the Tian Yuan Continent up ahead had already stabilized.
As a result, the tunnel that had become slightly unstable when he used his full strength last time had stabilized once again.
A resplendent light immediately flashed through the Spiritking's eyes when he saw this. The dark metal sword beside him immediately erupted with a dazzling, silver-white light. An extremely powerful sword intent immediately permeated the surroundings. Under the influence of the sword intent, the wild winds, the air, and even the dense energy of the world seemed to become strands of invisible sword Qi.
