"What happened?"
Sect Leader Song and his disciple were both shocked, but they also felt a sense of despair, as if they were powerless to resist the will of heaven.
"Has anything special happened recently?" A deep male voice suddenly rang out.
Sect Master Song and his disciple looked over and saw that it was the old sect master of Changli Mountain, Gao Tianzhong!
Unable to congratulate his master for coming out of seclusion, Sect Leader Song hurriedly said, "If there is something special, Mister Tiger, a disciple of the Traceless Cloud Dragon King, has come to our Vast Sea. He just left not long ago."
"Huang Huting has either come here on the orders of Traceless Cloud Yan, or …" Gao Tianzhong's pupils dilated slightly, "Or Traceless Cloud Yan was in the Vast Ocean World previously."
The young man panicked. "All this commotion is caused by the Traceless Cloud Dragon King? Does he want to destroy the Vast Ocean World? "
Sect Leader Song rebuked, "He has no reason to do that."
"There was a similar incident in the past, but it wasn't as big as it is now." Gao Tianzhong looked in the direction of the Bewildering Maze Sea.
Previously, Yan Zhaoge had entered secluded cultivation there.
That day, in the Bewildering Maze Sea, a pillar of light shot into the sky and illuminated the world.
The entire Vast Ocean World bore witness to Yan Zhaoge's ascension.
But today, the tremors did not come from the Bewildering Maze Sea or any specific place.
Instead, it was the entire Vast Ocean World that was shaking.
However, Gao Tianzhong was still looking in the direction of the Bewildering Maze Sea.
Chief Song and his disciple both understood, "Was it because the Traceless Cloud Dragon King had transcended the third level of the Martial Saint realm and ascended to the World beyond Worlds that year?"
Gao Tianzhong said, "This time, perhaps it will be a similar situation. Let us wait patiently."
Even if they wanted to do something, there was nothing they could do.
If this tribulation really wanted to destroy the Vast Ocean World, even Gao Tianzhong who had just left seclusion as a late Merging Avatar Martial Saint would be powerless to resist it as he would similarly be unable to survive.
Even if all the current experts of the Vast Ocean World joined hands, it would still be futile as everyone could only close their eyes and wait for death.
The Sky Collapsing Tribulation would cause the sky to collapse, and all living beings under the sky would be destroyed together.
However, this calamity did not last for too long.
Very quickly, the tremors calmed down.
Everything returned to normal. Everything that everyone had just experienced with fear and trepidation seemed like an illusion.
"It really is Yan Cloud's Trace Descending into the Vast Ocean!" Gao Tianzhong was confident.
The people of Changli Mountain looked at each other, their expressions complicated. In the end, they all sighed in unison.
Those who had seen Yan Zhaoge in the past all felt as though they were in a dream now as it seemed even more unreal than the great tribulation and earthquake from before.
Meanwhile, Ah Hu who had previously bid farewell to Chief Song and his disciple and headed to the Bewildering Maze Sea naturally sensed the changes in the Vast Ocean World as well.
After being stunned for a moment, he opened his mouth and laughed. He was overjoyed. "Young Master has succeeded!"
After the tremors disappeared, Ah Hu rushed to the Bewildering Maze Sea.
At this moment, this place no longer resembled how it had been when Yan Zhaoge had broken through space to see true Divinity and ascended to the World beyond Worlds earlier.
After the quaking of the entire Vast Ocean World had ceased, the Bewildering Maze Sea seemed to have regained its usual calm.
Just as Ah Hu was gazing into the distance, a voice suddenly rang out behind him, "Why did you come down as well?"
"Young Master!" Turning his head, Ah Hu saw Yan Zhaoge standing right behind him.
Ah Hu asked excitedly, "Young Master, have you also ascended the Immortal Bridge like the Family Head?"
Yan Zhaoge smiled, not saying anything.
However, in Ah Hu's eyes, Yan Zhaoge's figure seemed to have vanished before him, replaced by a starry cosmos.
The numerous stars circulated within this cosmos, intersecting and forming their own trajectories yet also influencing one another.
Other than being unable to see the birth and destruction of stars, it was like he was facing an actual sea of stars in the cosmos!
On this day, Yan Zhaoge successfully ascended the Immortal Bridge, stepping into the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm, the early Immortal Bridge stage as he officially began his path towards the Immortal realm.
Ah Hu was filled with admiration as he only regained his wits after a long time, hurriedly saying, "Family Head said that the matter you asked him to investigate before entering secluded cultivation has come to an end. He asked me to deliver it to you."
"Oh?" Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge's eyes lit up.
Ah Hu handed over a jade coin to Yan Zhaoge. Seeing it, Yan Zhaoge saw that it was precisely the one he had given to Yan Di that year.
After glancing through its contents, a strange light flickered within Yan Zhaoge's eyes as he fell into deep thought.
After a long time, Yan Zhaoge stroked his lower chin as he muttered to himself, "Seems like it's going to work …"
Now, as time passed and the quaking of the Vast Ocean World ceased, the various Vast Ocean martial practitioners all calmed down as they saw the scenes of the end of the world vanish.
While there seemed to be no abnormalities occurring over at the Bewildering Maze Sea this time, everyone simultaneously hurried over to it.
A newly ascended third level Martial Saint, Gao Tianzhong, the strongest native martial practitioner of the Vast Ocean World, was the first to arrive even though he was not the closest.
When he saw Yan Zhaoge, Gao Tianzhong was greatly shocked.
At this moment, the Yan Zhaoge that appeared in his field of vision resembled a mortal, completely ordinary and unremarkable. Not only was there no true essence emanating from his body at all, the qi and blood of his entire body also appeared weak and light as it was not as powerful as those who cultivated in martial arts at all.
From the looks of it, even a martial practitioner who had just begun cultivating in the most basic stance arts for a few months would be more powerful than Yan Zhaoge.
Yet, it was precisely such a person who stood in the air above the Bewildering Maze Sea like it was flat ground as though nothing had happened.
Gao Tianzhong himself could also lock his True Essence and not let it leak out, looking like he had returned to his natural state, lifting something heavy as if it were light as he stood in the air.
Still, he was clear that he was actually still able to emanate his true essence, thus being able to hover in mid-air.
It was just that he was able to use the smallest amount of strength to easily accomplish what others would have to expend all their strength to do.
Moving a thousand catties with four ounces of strength was very miraculous.
Still, four ounces of strength was still needed to move a thousand catties at the end of the day.
Yet, the Yan Zhaoge before him truly did not leak any true essence at all.
His actions completely defied logic.
Seeing Yan Zhaoge like this, Gao Tianzhong was rather at a loss as to how he should speak.
As the other Vast Ocean World martial practitioners arrived in succession, seeing Yan Zhaoge's appearance, they did not pay much attention to it at first.
Still, when they had gradually come to their senses, shocked looks appeared on all of their faces.
It was Yan Zhaoge whose expression was as per usual as he smiled and nodded towards them, "Long time no see, everyone. How have you been?"
He extended his fingers, making a grabbing motion within the air.
The surrounding heavens and earth instantly distorted.
"This Yan has some matters that I need to attend to in the World beyond Worlds. I won't be catching up with you all this time. If we have the time next time, we can slowly chat again."
The world before the eyes of Gao Tianzhong and the others blurred as they saw a continuous chain of mountains actually appear out of thin air.
A continuous chain of mountains had appeared on the surface of this Bewildering Maze Sea!
On one of the mountain peaks, a terrifying storm was rampaging.
It was precisely Tribulation Wind Mountain.
The wound of the sky that led from the Vast Ocean World to the World beyond Worlds was located in the sky above Tribulation Wind Mountain.
Moving mountains and shifting seas was something that even Martial Saints could do.
Still, that was something that could only be done at a relatively close distance.
Still, what shocked Gao Tianzhong and the others was that Tribulation Wind Mountain was on a continent far away from the vast ocean, being as far as the eye could see from the Bewildering Maze Sea.
At this moment, it was actually like Yan Zhaoge had moved it to the Bewildering Maze Sea!
"Wasn't it said that when they descended, their cultivation bases would be suppressed to the third level of the Martial Saint realm?" All the Vast Ocean World martial practitioners had blank looks on their faces.
