Run!
Sensing that the aura in the main hall was getting stronger and stronger, it felt like a surging tide. Everyone's expression became more and more solemn. They unleashed all their speed and continued to charge forward. They charged into the middle hall and headed for the outer hall.
With every breath, the aura in the main palace would rise sharply, becoming more and more tyrannical. It was as if there was a blade at their backs, causing everyone to feel a great threat. Indeed, it was correct not to stay behind and face it head-on. Otherwise, whether or not they could escape was still unknown.
Finally, the four of them rushed to the waterside pavilion. Without any hesitation, Saint Nine Cloud immediately took out the "key" scale. Just as he was about to open the protective barrier to escape, he suddenly stopped.
Why?
The four of them looked extremely solemn because there were many figures floating outside the protective shield. They were all tall and huge. Even though the protective shield had isolated their auras and made it difficult to sense them, they could tell that those figures were not to be trifled with.
The Sea Tribe!
Outside the protective shield was the Sea Tribe. Other than the Sea Tribe, there were also many sea beasts.
There were a total of six members of the Sea Tribe. Each of them was about five meters tall. If they were to judge their strength based on their height, then a five-meter tall member of the Sea Tribe should be equivalent to a Sea King of the Pristine Saint Realm. There was a sea beast below each of the six members of the Sea Tribe. One of the sea beasts looked very familiar to everyone.
The Bloody Sea Shark!
It was the Bloody Sea Shark that had been injured by the Star Slayer Sword Saint.
The other five Sea Tribe members were either riding on giant seahorses or huge Devil Rays. Chen Zong also noticed that the weapons in the hands of these Sea Tribe members were not all tridents. The two Sea Tribe members who were riding on the giant seahorses were holding swords.
As for how the Sea Tribe members who had no legs were riding on them, it was very simple. They just had to curl up their tails and they were as stable as Mount Tai.
The six Sea Tribe members were staring coldly at Chen Zong and the other three through the protective shield. The sea beasts below them were also staring at them. The Bloody Sea Shark's eyes were especially ferocious as it stared at the Star Slayer Sword Saint.
Although the sea beast did not have much intelligence, it still had instincts. It still remembered that it was the Star Slayer Sword Saint who had slashed it and it was in great pain.
Chen Zong and the other three looked very serious. Separated by the protective shield, they did not move for a while, but they could not help but feel anxious.
It was because the aura behind him was getting stronger and stronger. The Sea Emperor seemed to be waking up.
Even if he regretted it, it was too late. What was done was done, and there was no reason to regret it. Now, he had to figure out how to get out of this predicament.
Wolves in front and tigers behind!
The Sea Emperor's body was recovering, and he was about to awaken. Outside the protective barrier, there were six Oceanic Race experts. Together with the sea beasts, they were even more terrifying.
"Everyone, now that things have come to this, we can only take the risk." Nine Cloud Saint said in a low voice, "I'll immediately open up the protective barrier. Let's rush out as fast as we can and escape in different directions."
The Ocean Emperor was too terrifying. Even though it was just his corpse, it still possessed astonishing power. It was not easy to provoke him. Comparatively speaking, there were four of them, and six of the oceanic species outside. Adding the sea beasts, there were twelve of them. Although it was terrifying, they still had some hope of escaping.
Moreover, even if they stayed behind to face the Sea Emperor's corpse, even if they won in the end, they would still have to leave this place. They would still have to face the Sea Tribe.
Therefore, it was best to choose to leave.
As for escaping in different directions, that was the best option.
Because if they gathered together, the Sea Tribe would also gather together and be surrounded.
However, if they were to split up, what would the Sea Tribe do?
Would they gather their forces and chase after one of them?
Or would they split up and chase after the other four?
If it was the former, it would depend on who had bad luck. If it was the latter, after the Sea Tribe's forces were split up, their chances of escaping would undoubtedly be higher.
Nine Cloud Saint moved quickly. He immediately took out a scale and pasted it on the protective barrier, opening up a gap. At the same time, the Star Slayer Sword Saint and Chen Zong drew their swords and saber one after another. Without hesitation, they slashed out. Saber light and Sword Qi flew out and slashed at the Oceanic Race experts.
Immediately after, the four of them burst out with astonishing speed and rushed out of the gap, flying in different directions.
Everyone's reaction was extremely fast. It was beyond the Sea Tribe's expectations. When they blocked the attacks of the saber light and Sword Qi, the four of them had already rushed out of the protective barrier and were flying in different directions.
The Sea Tribe member riding on the Blood Sea Shark was clearly the leader of this group. He immediately let out a roar filled with anger, probably intending to chase after them. Immediately, the six Sea Tribe members took action.
There were four enemies and six of them. If they did not let any of them go, it meant that the six of them would have to split up.
Immediately, the Sea Tribe member riding on the Blood Sea Shark chased after the Star Slayer Sword Saint, while the two Sea Tribe members riding on the giant seahorses chased after Chen Zong with swords.
As for the Jade Flower Saint, she was also chased by one Sea Tribe member. Nine Cloud Saint was unlucky and was chased by two Sea Tribe members.
Whether they could escape or not would depend on their abilities and luck.
Chen Zong's speed was extremely fast. He broke through the heavy pressure of the seawater and kept rushing to the surface of the water. In the deep sea, the pressure was very obvious. It came from all directions and seemed to be endless. It was so heavy that Chen Zong was affected in all aspects. His speed was also significantly reduced.
On the contrary, the Sea Tribe members were not affected by the heavy pressure of the seawater in the deep sea. They were like fish in water and birds flying in the sky. They had the advantage of time and place. They were like a tiger that had grown wings. They were even more terrifying.
Moreover, the two Sea Tribe members were riding on sea beasts. Sea beasts were born and grew in the sea and were extremely compatible with each other. They might become prey on land, but they were extremely terrifying in the sea.
The two giant seahorses were more than ten meters long and the aura they exuded had reached the Saint Grade. They were terrifying sea beasts at the Pristine Saint Stage.
Seahorses seemed to be very weak.
That referred to ordinary seahorses. Would Saint Grade seahorses that were more than ten meters long be weak?
Of course not.
Weak and strong were often relative. For those below the Saint Grade, they were naturally not strong or even weak. However, since they were at the Saint Grade, they would not be weak. Of course, if the seahorses were compared to the Bloody Sea Shark, even though they were both at the Saint Grade, the Bloody Sea Shark was still stronger than the seahorses. This was a natural difference in the nature of life.
The two Sea Tribe members riding the giant Saint Grade seahorses were very fast and kept chasing after Chen Zong. Although Chen Zong's speed was not slow, he was still getting closer and closer to them.
Then, the two seahorses suddenly spat out two half-meter transparent bubbles from their round mouths. They flew quickly toward Chen Zong. The two bubbles did not seem strong, but they were extremely fast and contained extremely terrifying power.
Chen Zong's body flashed and he avoided the two bubbles.
The bubbles rushed past him and broke through the water pressure in the deep sea, leaving behind two trails.
Immediately afterward, the two Sea King powerhouses of the Oceanic Species brandished their swords and slashed out two powerful sword-lights. They covered Chen Zongsheng's left and right sides, giving Chen Zongsheng a feeling that he couldn't avoid them.
However, Chen Zong's body shrunk and expanded in an instant. He avoided the two sword lights and instantly shot out at a faster speed.
Chase!
The two Sea Kings rode the Saint Grade sea beasts and staged a deep sea chase. Chen Zong kept escaping upward. It was not wise to fight with the Sea Kings in the deep sea.
Moreover, the two Sea Kings and two Saint Grade sea beasts were even more terrifying when they joined forces.
However, if he rushed out of the sea, the situation would be different.
The two Sea Tribe members obviously understood this and did not intend to let Chen Zong escape.
Then, the two Sea Tribe members' left hands, which were not holding swords, moved one after another as if they were making a seal. The surrounding sea water faintly fluctuated.
Chen Zong only felt that the water pressure around him was increasing and becoming more and more tyrannical. It blocked his momentum to a greater extent.
As the two Sea Kings kept making seals with their left hands, they looked cold and serious. They manipulated the pressure of the sea water to increase and suppress Chen Zong. This was the ability of the Sea Tribe. The more powerful the Sea Tribe, the more powerful their ability to manipulate the sea water.
Chen Zong's Sword Essence burst out and broke through the heavy water pressure. His speed increased again, but the water pressure was too strong. Chen Zong still felt very uncomfortable under the constant pressure.
The water pressure was endless. His sword will would constantly be consumed if he tried to fight against it.
This was very unfavorable for him.
For a moment, Chen Zong was in a predicament.
As for the Sea Emperor Palace, in the main hall, the Sea King's body had already burst out with a terrifying aura. One after another, like a raging tide, it madly rushed out and filled the main hall. Then, it rushed out of the main hall, spread to the main hall, and then spread to the outermost area and hit the protective cover.
Suddenly, there was a continuous rumbling sound, which was caused by the extremely tyrannical aura hitting the protective cover.
The sound of crashing waves could be heard as layers upon layers of waves carried the Sea Emperor's ten-meter-tall body out of the Main Hall. It passed through the Middle Hall and arrived outside the Outer Hall. However, it was blocked by the protective barrier.
The Sea Emperor suddenly let out a roar. He swung the trident in his hand and fiercely bombarded the protective shield. The shield shook violently, but it didn't break. Instead, ripples spread out from the spot where the trident hit.
The Sea King seemed to be even more furious when he did not break the protective cover with one blow. He waved the trident again and attacked again.
One blow after another, like layers of waves, continuously bombarding the protective cover. The protective cover was so strong that a Pristine Saint Realm expert could not do anything to it. A Great Saint Realm expert's attack also could not break it so easily. However, under the Sea King's continuous attack, which was like layers of waves, a cracking sound was heard from the protective cover. Suddenly, cracks appeared on the protective cover.
With another attack, the protective cover was immediately broken. The Sea King rushed out with layers of waves. Following his senses, he immediately chased in the direction where Nine Cloud Saint had left.
No one knew that the Sea King had broken the protective cover and chased after Nine Cloud Saint. It was already difficult enough to be chased by the Sea Tribe experts.
