The saint artifact shone with a faint golden light. Borrowing the force from the powerful attacks of the seven Holy Emperor experts, it quickly flew into the distance. It moved extremely quickly, disappearing into the distance in the blink of an eye.
"After it!" The four divine generals of the Serpent God Hall and the three disciplinary elders of the Heaven's Spirit Hall all pursued. Although the saint artifact had already vanished from their sight, they could still find traces of it through its presence.
However, at this moment, the seven of them had other thoughts aside from wanting to take Jian Chen back. They were greedy for the saint artifact.
Even experts at their level would be tempted by a treasure that could withstand a powerful attack from seven Holy Emperor experts at the Fifth Heavenly Layer and store a living person in it.
"Stop them!" Lei Batian called out. He, Qing Yixuan, Mo Ziran, and Ou Yun did their best to stop the seven of them. However, the four of them would occasionally glance in the direction where the saint artifact had vanished. The light in their eyes flickered.
Even Lei Batian and the other three became rather tempted by such a wondrous treasure. However, they did not forget their mission. They did not forget that Jianchen's group had been personally ordered by the hall master of the Poseidon hall to bring them back safely.
After the saint artifact carried Jianchen's group several hundred kilometers away, the residual force finally vanished. It slowed down as well, and with a flash of light, Jianchen's group of three appeared out of nowhere. Afterwards, the saint artifact immediately shot into Jianchen's forehead as a golden streak of light, disappearing.
"The saint artifact is slower than us. We can't remain in it forever. If the people of the Serpent God Hall and Heaven's Spirit Hall obtain it and take it back to their divine halls, we'll be in deep trouble," Jian Chen said with a deep voice. The hall masters of the Serpent God Hall and Heaven's Spirit Hall were both peak Holy Emperor experts. They possessed the strength to destroy the saint artifact.
"Looks like the eight human experts have been sent by his highness Poseidon to capture us. Fortunately, you haven't offended his highness Poseidon, or there would be no place for us in the vast sea realm. Let's go quickly and reach his highness Poseidon's territory as soon as possible," Evil King Xie said sternly. Xie Wang sternly said. His voice was slightly panicked. It was very difficult for him to remain calm as he faced the pursuit of seven Fifth Heavenly Layer Saint Kings.
Jianchen's group of three immediately pushed their speed to the limit. They were only a hundred thousand kilometers away from his highness Poseidon's territory now..
But very soon, three tremendous presences appeared behind them. The three experts shook off Lei Batian and the others and quickly pursued Jianchen's group. Lei Batian and the others pursued them closely in an attempt to keep the experts chasing after Jianchen's group of three busy. Behind Lei Batian's group of four were four experts from the Serpent God Hall and Heaven's Spirit Hall. They wanted to keep Lei Batian's group busy so that the other three could stop Jianchen's group.
The two sides rapidly approached Jianchen's group as they pursued.
A total of eleven boundless auras flew over countless tribes and clans in an unbridled manner. Along the way, they alarmed many experts of the Sea Race, causing a huge commotion. A battle between eleven 16th Star experts was an extremely rare occurrence in the sea world. It would only happen once in a thousand years, so what happened here would definitely spread across the entire sea realm.
For a moment, many Saint Rulers followed the eleven experts from the three halls from afar. There were a few Holy Emperor experts among them as well. They had all come to watch the show, so none of them dared to interfere.
Jianchen's group of three became extremely worried when they saw the three Holy Emperor chasing after them. The Holy Emperor experts behind them were much faster than them. If this continued, the experts of the Heaven's Spirit Hall and Serpent God Hall would probably catch up to them before they even made it to Poseidon's hall.
Nubis became determined. He gritted his teeth, "I'll burn my essence to take the two of you with me." With that, golden flames immediately erupted from Nubis's body. Although the flames did not have any heat, they were extremely eye-catching in the azure sea realm. They shone like the sun.
Nubis burned his essence to obtain a speed that exceeded his own. Afterward, he shot off as a golden comet with Jianchen and Xie Wang. Even though Nubis did not want to do this, he had no other choice now.
Nubis's body surged with golden flames as his essence was rapidly consumed. His flesh withered at a visible rate as he shrank. As his essence was consumed, Nubis's presence weakened bit by bit. His strength was declining, but his speed had reached a terrifying level. He was already comparable to the Holy Emperor, a supreme expert at the Fourth Heavenly Layer.
Even though Nubis's speed was still slower than his pursuers after burning his essence, he was still able to put up a struggle at the very least. The pursuers would not be able to catch up to them in a short amount of time.
"Bastard, how did they increase their speed so quickly?" The expressions of the three pursuers changed. They were only thirty thousand kilometers away from the territory of the Poseidon's hall.
"Quick, quick, quick. We're about to reach the territory of the Poseidon's hall. As long as we reach the territory of the Poseidon's hall, we'll be safe." Nubis, Xie Wang, and Xie Wang were worried as well. They stared straight ahead. The three Holy Emperors were only around thirty kilometers away, but the three Holy Emperors no longer dared to attack Jianchen's group from afar. They were afraid that not only would they fail to injure the three of them, they would even assist them instead.
After another fifteen minutes, Nubis, Xie Wang, and Xie Wang finally arrived at the border between the territories of the Heaven's Spirit Hall and the Poseidon's hall. They were about to leave the Heaven's Spirit Hall, while the three Holy Emperors of the Serpent God Hall and the Heaven's Spirit Hall were only ten kilometers away.
"Don't let them pass through the border. Lock down the space there," a divine general called out.
At that moment, the three of them from different organisations worked together with great teamwork and locked down the space there.
Immediately, the space around them rapidly froze. They wanted to trap Jianchen, Xie Wang, and Xie Wang, so they could not escape.
However, locking down ten kilometers of space was not so simple. Even though they were Holy Emperors, it was impossible for them to complete it in a single moment. The frozen space rapidly extended forward, catching up to Jianchen's group before long.
"Nubis, faster," Jianchen called out in a hurry. They were extremely close to the border now.
"God dammit, the frozen space is about to catch up to us. Faster!" Xie Wang also panicked as he called out in a panic.
Nubis clenched her teeth and bellowed out. The golden flames on her burned even brighter, and she charged forward even faster than before. In the end, she successfully passed through the border before the frozen space could catch up, arriving in the territory of the Poseidon hall.
However, before the three of them could rejoice, the rapidly solidifying space actually crossed the boundary between the two worlds and directly enveloped the three of them. It firmly immobilized them.
The hearts of Jianchen's group immediately sank as their faces became extremely ugly. If the people of the Heaven's Spirit Hall and Serpent God Hall did not abide by the agreement between the territories and set foot in the Poseidon hall, it would be very difficult for them to escape alive today.
"Disciplinary elder of the Heaven's Spirit Hall, divine general of the Serpent God Hall, as members of the divine halls, are you not going to abide by the agreement between the three divine halls and attack the people in the territory of the Poseidon hall?" Lei Batian's heavy voice rang out from behind. His voice was filled with anger.
The three experts who had trapped Jianchen's group completely ignored Lei Batian's words. The three of them crossed the border at the same time and arrived in the territory of the Poseidon hall. They each grabbed Jianchen's group and wanted to pull them out of the territory of the Poseidon hall.
"It's over now." Xie Wang sighed inside as the flames of hope in his heart were immediately extinguished. Even Nubis and Jianchen's faces became extremely sunken. They had spent so much effort to escape the pursuit of the seven experts to the territory of the Poseidon hall, but they never thought that they would still be captured in the end.
The three experts each grabbed Jianchen's group by the shoulders and were about to drag them back to the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. However, in the next moment, all three of their faces changed drastically. Shock filled their faces.
This was because they had suddenly discovered that the three of them had been restrained by a mysterious force silently. They could not move at all. The three of them possessed the strength of the Fifth Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor in the first place. Even with the entire sea realm in perspective, they were still a handful of peak experts. Just how powerful was the person who had restrained the three of them without them noticing? The three of them were astounded.
"This is the innate ability of the imperial family. It's an immobilization technique for controlling the body," a divine general of the Serpent God Hall cried out as his face paled.
"Oh no, someone from the imperial family has secretly interfered and restrained us." An enforcement elder of the Heaven's Spirit Hall understood very soon. He immediately cried out and sent a message to his companions.
Lei Batian, Qing Yixuan, Mo Ziran, and Ou Yun crossed the border and returned to the territory of the Poseidon hall. The remaining four experts of the Serpent God Hall and Heaven's Spirit Hall stopped at the edge of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. They stared at the three restrained experts in surprise and doubt, not daring to take a single step forward.
"Hmph, your Serpent God Hall and Heaven's Spirit Hall sure are bold to enter the territory of the Poseidon hall without permission." A lively and gentle voice rang out in the air. A beautiful woman in a blue dress appeared out of thin air. Her beauty was enough to cause the downfall of nations.
The woman was extremely delicate and pretty. Her blue hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall. She held a one-meter-long blue staff in her hand, and her bare feet floated a hundred meters in the air. Although she did not give off any aura, she seemed to have fused with the world.
