The Divine Weapon Hall did not encounter the same danger as the Divine Medicine Hall. Instead, they gained something.
Unfortunately, due to the flow of time, everything was unable to resist the erosion of time. As a result, all the various weapons in the hall had been damaged. It was possible to say that most of the weapons had become dim and lusterless. They had lost their original might, becoming like pieces of scrap metal.
Of course, they were not completely useless. At least they could be reforged into divine weapons when brought back. After all, the materials themselves were still very good.
Unfortunately, they were all Saint-level experts. They did not care for these broken divine weapons that had lost their power.
Fortunately, there were still some divine weapons in the Divine Weapon Hall that still retained their power.
In the end, everyone gained something. The least was three divine weapons, and the most was five.
Chen Zong obtained three divine weapons. It was not that he did not want to take more, but that he did not intend to fight for them. Because there was no need. Firstly, he was a sword cultivator. The most suitable weapon for him was the Heavenly Will Sword. Secondly, because of his unique way of cultivation, many divine weapons were not suitable for him.
In the end, Chen Zong obtained three Sacred artefacts. One of them was a thick, black, round-shaped shield. Its surface was rough and filled with spiral-like runes. The other one was a sword. It was a fire-type sword, containing an extremely formidable might of the grand dao of fire. Chen Zong was secretly shocked. The third one was a bracelet. It was dark-golden in colour and very heavy, seemingly weighing tens of thousands of jin.
After exploring for a while, they did not encounter any other dangers. The four of them continued to walk inside and arrived at the last hall. It was also where the main hall was.
The door of the main hall was open. There were no experts of the Sea Tribe guarding it.
When they stepped into the main hall, they felt the light dim. It was as if they could not see anything. Suddenly, it was brightly lit. The four of them could see everything in the main hall clearly.
It was very large and spacious.
Soon after, a bewildered voice sounded. Everyone immediately looked forward and saw a figure sitting at the center of the end of the hall. There was a strangely shaped chair that seemed to be formed by waves.
Chen Zong's pupils instantly constricted to the size of needles, and his heart was extremely shaken.
That figure directly overlapped with the figure in the illusion created by Meihua's counterattack before her death.
He was ten meters tall and had an extremely strong body. His body was covered with fine scales, and he held a ten meter long trident in one hand. His eyes seemed to be looking into the endless distance, penetrating through the layers of space as he stared at the world with disdain.
The body looked like a statue, but it also did not look like a statue. It emitted a shocking pressure.
If it was not a statue, could it be the corpse of the Sea Emperor?
Thinking of this, everyone could not help but tremble.
The Sea Emperor was a Divine Ancestor level powerhouse. His strength was extremely tyrannical.
. It was as if it was an invisible Mountain........................................
Nine Cloud Saint stared at the Sea Emperor's body. No, more accurately, he stared at the Sea Emperor's left hand.
The Sea Emperor held a ten-meter-long trident in his right hand. His left hand was extended. His palm was facing up. His five fingers were slightly bent. He was holding a ball about the size of a normal person's head.
The ball was transparent. It was like a colorless crystal. However, it contained a light blue color. It looked like a vast ocean.
The crystal-like ball did not emit any aura. It looked very ordinary, but it was not ordinary at all. If it was ordinary, how could it appear in the hands of an expert of the Sea Emperor? Looking at Nine Cloud Saint's blazing eyes, it was clear that the crystal-like ball was the purpose of his trip.
"Everyone, that crystal ball is the purpose of my trip," said Nine Cloud Saint immediately. His voice was somewhat obscure, but it was filled with great desire.
Chen Zong was a person with strong principles. He had already agreed, so he would not go back on his word. The Star Slashing Blade Saint was a pure blade Cultivator. He was sincere, so he would not go back on his word. As for the Jade Flower Saint, she was actually a little tempted. However, Chen Zong and the Star Slashing Blade Saint's eyes were clear. They did not waver at all. The Jade Flower Saint could only give up on that thought.
The pressure from the Sea Emperor's body was extremely powerful. It naturally released its power in all directions, suppressing everything.
Nine Cloud Saint constantly unleashed his power. He kept approaching the Sea Emperor's body.
Fortunately, the Sea Emperor seemed to have really died. Otherwise, the pressure would have been even stronger and more terrifying.
Even so, the Nine Cloud Saint had to expend all of his strength in order to get close to it.
According to the agreement, the crystal ball would belong to Nine Cloud Saint, but he had to obtain it first.
Staring at the pressure from the Sea Emperor's body, Nine Cloud Saint finally took the crystal ball that was the size of a head. He could not contain his excitement.
What treasure was that?
Why was Nine Cloud Saint so excited?
"Nine Cloud Saint, what treasure is that?" asked the Jade Flower Saint. She could not help but ask first.
"Haha, it's the Sea Emperor's treasure, the Ocean Suppressing Pearl," said Nine Cloud Saint with a smile. "Rumor has it that the Ocean Suppressing Pearl has the power to suppress the sea, but I don't know the details. I'll only know after I refine it."
"The power to suppress the sea," everyone muttered. They did not think too much about it because it was too general.
Since they had obtained the treasure, they continued searching. It was a pity that they did not find any other treasures in the end.
It could be said that the biggest winners were Nine Cloud Saint and Chen Zong. Nine Cloud Saint had obtained several saint artifacts, but his biggest gain was the Ocean Suppressing Pearl.
As for Chen Zong, other than three saint artifacts, his biggest gain was that he had further unraveled the mysteries of heartforce. He could see through illusions and unleash three times the power.
As for the Jade Flower Saint and the Star Slayer Sword Saint, they had obtained saint artifacts.
It might sound like a few saint artifacts were nothing, but that wasn't the case. A few saint artifacts were still very valuable. This was especially true for saint artifacts that had been collected by an expert like the Sea Emperor and had been preserved for a long time. They were the best of the best and were extraordinary.
Since they did not find anything else, it was time to leave.
"Wait," said Nine Cloud Saint. "I can see that this trident is no ordinary item. It must be a peak saint artifact. Its value is astonishing. Why don't we take it as well? The Ocean Suppressing Pearl is enough for me. Once we get the trident, we can share it among the three of you."
It was not an exaggeration to say that the Sea Emperor's weapon was a peak saint artifact. Its value was astonishing.
Since that was the case, they would take it as well.
The Jade Flower Saint and Nine Cloud Saint attacked together while Chen Zong and the Star Slayer Sword Saint were responsible for guarding, preventing any accidents.
However, the trident was held too tightly. Nine Cloud Saint and Jade Flower Saint could not remove it even after using all their strength.
"I'll do it." As soon as the Star Slayer Sword Saint's voice faded, he rushed forward and unsheathed his long saber. He unleashed a peerless saber radiance that split apart the heavy pressure and finally landed on the wrist of the Sea Emperor's right arm. He attempted to sever it and take the trident away first.
With a clang, the sword trembled and bounced back. The Star Slayer Sword Saint's expression changed drastically. He felt his arm go numb and the sword almost flew out of his hand.
A white mark appeared on the Sea Emperor's right wrist, but there was no sign of it being cut off.
"This …" Everyone's expression changed drastically.
What a terrifying body. The Star Slayer Sword Saint's sword technique was powerful and his attack power was shocking. However, such a strike only left a white mark. How strong was his body?
The Star Slayer Sword Saint's eyes shone brightly. He raised his sword again. The sword soared into the air and strands of shocking sword Qi rippled on it, tearing through the surroundings.
Slash!
The powerful strike landed mercilessly on the white mark on the wrist. It was extremely accurate. However, at that moment, the sword trembled and there was a faint cracking sound. The sword bounced back and flew out of the Sea Emperor's hand. The Star Slayer Sword Saint was forced back. The web between his thumb and forefinger was torn and dripping with blood.
As the long saber fell, fine cracks appeared where the saber had struck.
Oh no!
The Saint artifact level saber was actually chipped. Looking at the Sea Emperor's wrist, the white mark was even deeper. The skin of the Sea Emperor's wrist had been cut open, but it was only the skin membrane. The Star-Slashing Sword Saint's expression changed greatly, and he felt a little heartache.
That sword was a saint artifact, but it was only a lower saint artifact. However, it had been with him for many years. It had accompanied him in his battles and defeated countless strong opponents. He did not expect it to be broken here.
His heart ached. He felt an indescribable heartache.
The Star Slayer Sword Saint moved and immediately put away the sword. Then, he took out another sword. It was a saint artifact that he had obtained in the Divine Weapon Hall of the Sea Emperor's palace. It should have been a upper saint artifact. Unfortunately, due to the erosion of time and lack of maintenance, its power had dropped to the level of a middle saint artifact.
However, this drop in power was not permanent. It only needed to be nurtured properly and it could return to the level of a upper saint artifact.
With the long saber in his hand, there was a dazzling flowing light on the blade. Once again, he slashed out. Although it bounced back, the sharper long saber cut deeper into the white scar.
"Good." Nine Cloud Saint immediately smiled and said, "A few more slashes and there is hope to cut it."
The Star Slayer Sword Saint gathered power and slashed again.
An intense sound rang out, but Chen Zong's sharp senses told him that something was wrong. That pressure instantly grew stronger.
"Retreat quickly." Chen Zong shouted out immediately. The three of them could feel that something was amiss. The body of this Sea race being seemed as though it was about to come to life. The aura it exuded was getting more and more frightening and tyrannical.
Everyone could not help but be shocked. They immediately gave up on the trident and retreated.
"Let's go."
They made a prompt decision and rushed out of the main hall. The aura that erupted from the main hall continued to surge like a surging tide. It was getting more and more terrifying.
Perhaps the Sea Emperor had already fallen. However, once his corpse moved, it would probably possess extraordinary power.
Who knew what kind of means a Divine Ancestor had left behind?
If they were in the Great Saint Realm, they would be able to fight it head-on. However, they were only in the Pristine Saint Realm. It was better to be conservative.
Nine Cloud Saint actually regretted it. If he had known earlier, he would not have thought about the trident. Who would have thought that things would turn out like this?
Let's leave the Sea Emperor's palace first.
