"It's a hall elder!" Jianchen, Nubis, and Xie Wang all raised their heads to look at the woman. Unconcealable surprise filled their faces.
The hall elder before him was just far too young and far too beautiful. Even on the Tian Yuan Continent, her beauty could be counted on one hand.
"The greatest hall elder of the Poseidon Hall. Her strength is only second to the hall master, Atlantis." The four experts in the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall stared at the woman in the air in shock as they all cried out.
"Atlantis, it's actually Atlantis. She, she, she, she … Didn't she never leave the Sea God Palace? Why did she come here personally today?" The faces of the three experts who were restrained were pale, without a trace of blood.
Atlantis' name was well known to them as 16th Star elders. She was the undisputed fourth expert of the sea realm, having reached the peak of the 16th Star many years ago. Her battle prowess was extremely great, and no one at the same level was her opponent. Only the hall masters of the three halls could suppress her.
Without any exaggeration, Atlantis was the undisputed greatest expert of the sea realm aside from the hall masters of the three halls.
"It's over, it's over this time. I didn't think Atlantis would actually come here. Even if the seven of us worked together, we would still die without a doubt." The three powerhouses who had been restrained were dejected and didn't have the slightest bit of temper left in them. They would be severely punished for trespassing in the territory of the Poseidon Hall. Although their lives would not be in any danger, it was extremely embarrassing for 16th Star experts to be punished. They would no longer have the face to see anyone after they returned.
In the blink of an eye, the situation changed with Atlantis' appearance. Not only did she deter the seven experts of the two halls, but she also ensured the safety of Jianchen and the other two.
Atlantis glanced past Jianchen and the other two with an emotionless gaze. However, when her gaze landed on Jianchen and Nubis, she paused slightly. A sliver of surprise flashed through her eyes before disappearing. She then said to the four of them, "They're the hall master's people?"
"Yes, hall elders. They're the hall master's people, and they've been confirmed by the Abyssal Bird. There's no mistake," Lei Batian replied with a muffled voice.
"The hall master will see them immediately. The four of you are responsible for sending them back to the divine hall," Atlantis' voice was indifferent, without any ripples of emotion. With that, the invisible force that restrained Jianchen and the other two vanished, allowing them to regain their freedom.
"Yes, hall elders," Lei Batian replied respectfully. With a wave of his hand, an invisible force immediately enveloped Jianchen and the other two.
"Wait," Jianchen suddenly spoke up, causing Lei Batian to pause. He immediately cast a doubtful glance at him.
Jianchen glared at a divine general standing in the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall and said with a deep voice, "Sir, shouldn't you return what you took from me?"
The divine general had already put away the Golden Silk Armor he had taken from Jianchen into his Space Ring. When he heard Jianchen's words, his expression immediately changed. He glanced at the hovering Atlantis, whose expression did not change at all. Deep fear appeared on his face.
However, he understood very soon that he was still in the territory of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. He had not set foot in the territory of the Poseidon Hall. Even though Atlantis was very powerful, he would not dare to touch him. When he thought up to there, the divine general immediately became fearless. He sneered, "Hehe, it's not damaged at all after taking an attack from me. This armor is quite extraordinary. However, if you want your armor back, you'll have to exchange it with the items you've taken from us. Otherwise, don't even think about getting your armor back. " With that, the divine general and his companion looked at each other before leaving. They flew towards the territory of the Serpent God Hall.
The two of them did not pay too much attention to their companions who had been imprisoned by Atlantis because they already knew the fate of their companions. It was pointless for them to remain there, and it was extremely likely that they would be stopped by the experts of the Heaven's Spirit Hall. They would end up in the same situation as their companions who had set foot in the territory of the Poseidon Hall. It would not be worth it.
Jianchen clenched his fists tightly as he stared at the two divine generals who had left. A cold light flickered through his eyes as he growled, "There will be a day when I make you regret what you've done today for the rest of your life."
The Golden Silk Armor was woven from the silk of the Primordial Godsilkworm. It was an extremely rare treasure in the world. Jianchen had already understood its value and value from the sword spirits. It was an extremely powerful defensive treasure.
For some reason, the Golden Silk Armor could only block the attacks of Saint Rulers. However, Jianchen knew extremely well that the Golden Silk Armor still hid a lot of potential. It had just not been activated yet. Its true defensive power was definitely not like this.
"Let's go," Lei Batian called out before leaving with Jianchen and the others. They directly made their way to the Poseidon Hall.
After they had left, Atlantis coldly glanced past the three experts she had imprisoned. She said emotionlessly, "The three of you will come with me to the Poseidon Hall. The hall master will deal with you." Atlantis gently waved her wand and a blue halo immediately enveloped the three of them, sealing their strength. It then turned into a blue ribbon that connected to Atlantis' hand.
Atlantis held three ribbons that had turned into ropes and pulled the three of them towards the temple. Along the way, they attracted the curious gazes of many powerful beings who were passing by. They all pointed at them and whispered among themselves.
At that moment, the three Fifth Heavenly Layer Holy Emperor experts behind her even wanted to die. They were mighty 16th Star experts, yet they had ended up in such a miserable state.
The three of them were carried by the burly Lei Batian, so they moved extremely quickly. Beside them were Qing Yixuan, Mo Ziran, and Ou Yun, the eight human experts, who escorted them along the way.
Nubis was pale and haggard. He was extremely weak. He had just burned his essence in exchange for greater speed, which had taken an extremely great toll on him. His strength had decreased by quite a lot, going from half a step away from becoming a Holy Emperor to a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler.
"I've finally been saved. What I've experienced this time is the proudest thing of my life. I actually managed to escape from the pursuit of seven 16th Star experts," Nubis was filled with joy. As soon as he thought about the life he had gone through as a fugitive, he felt like he was living in a dream. It was just so thrilling.
He had never thought that a few mere Saint Kings would be able to successfully escape from the joint pursuit of several Elders from the two Divine Halls.
"Looks like it was a wise choice for me to follow them. I've heard from the elders that the two of them seem to be rulers of some race. They have great statuses, so they shouldn't be lying to me. I think I'll definitely be able to obtain the divine water of the world again in fifty years," Nubis thought. The flames of hope reignited in his heart. He was no longer as pessimistic and despairing as before.
Jianchen stared at the weak Nubis in concern. He asked, "Nubis, do you want to rest in the artifact space?"
Nubis nodded, "That works too. I've used up some of my essence, so I need to replenish it as soon as possible, or there'll be repercussions. It'll affect me very greatly in the future."
Jianchen no longer hesitated. With a thought, the saint artifact immediately shot out from between his eyebrows as a golden streak of light, landing in his hand. Afterward, he sucked Nubis into the artifact space.
The saint artifact had already been exposed when he fled earlier, so there was no need for him to hide it anymore.
The appearance of the saint artifact immediately attracted the gazes of Lei Batian and the others. They all stared at the golden tower in Jianchen's hand curiously. They could not help but ask, "Brother, what is this thing? It can actually store a living person. How unbelievable."
"This is something I obtained by chance. I only know its uses, but I don't know its origins or its exact name." Jianchen made up a random excuse. He did not dare to reveal the true origins of the saint artifact. There were no Radiant Saint Masters in the sea realm at all. Once they were injured, they would have to use various healing medicines or rely on themselves to heal. It was extremely slow. If they learned the true origins of the saint artifact, the entire sea realm would probably be thrown into an uproar.
The saint artifact disappeared into Jianchen's forehead as a golden streak of light. Lei Batian and the others immediately widened their eyes at such a wondrous sight. Disbelief filled their faces.
"Little brother, could it be that this thing is still in his head?" Ou Yun, one of the eight great human powerhouses, said dumbfoundedly. This had completely overturned his understanding.
Jianchen nodded, but he did not explain in detail.
"What a wondrous treasure," Mo Ziran sighed emotionally.
However, none of them noticed that Qing Yixuan's face had become unsettled. The light in her eyes flickered. Who knew what she was thinking.
After flying for half a day, Lei Batian finally arrived at the Poseidon Hall with Jianchen.
The Poseidon Hall was located in the centre of the territory. It was an extremely huge divine hall that hovered in the air. It gave off a dignified presence. At the very top of the divine hall stood a huge statue that was three hundred meters tall. It was like a god, sacred and inviolable.
The statue was of a woman whose face was obscured. It was extremely life-like. The upper half of the woman was human, while the lower half was fish. It was a strange combination of being half-human and half-fish.
The moment he saw the statue, Jianchen even felt like he was seeing an illusion. It was as if he was not looking at a statue, but a world. Jianchen understood that the woman in the statue must have reached an extremely high level of cultivation when she was alive. Otherwise, she would never have made him feel like that.
"The person carved on the statue is the great Poseidon of the Sea race. He's the only expert who has surpassed the Holy Emperor's level of cultivation in all these years. In ancient times, he was on par with the greatest human expert, Mo Tianyun, the ancient Winged Tiger, and the war god of the Hundred Races," Lei Batian explained.
"Poseidon!" Jianchen murmured. He felt like the statue gave him a familiar feeling.
