The statue of the Ocean King was also the entrance to the palace.
A majestic pressure enveloped everyone as golden light descended. Ye Futian felt a powerful will invade his mind. He looked at the statue and vaguely saw a god-like figure walking towards him. It walked into his mind and pressed down on him.
It was not just him. Everyone felt the same. This was the first test of the ruins. If you wanted to enter, you had to withstand the statue's will. The higher your cultivation, the stronger the pressure.
If a Saint appeared, the statue would explode with its strongest will. Someone had once seen golden light penetrate the deep sea and shoot out to the surface.
The cultivators from the three holy lands naturally knew what to do. They endured the pressure and moved forward. The people at the front had already stepped onto the golden stairs and were walking towards the light in the middle of the statue. Once they passed, they would be able to enter the ruins.
Liu Yu, who was beside Ye Futian, was also under the pressure, but she was the weakest because her cultivation was low.
At that moment, Ye Futian's will could not help but resist the pressure. It was an instinct. The god walked into the depths of his mind, and the pressure on Ye Futian grew stronger and stronger. In his mind, an even stronger will exploded, resisting the pressure. His spiritual will seemed to be burning, becoming stronger and stronger.
Ye Futian's head shook. He had a bad feeling. The powerful will of the Ocean King had invaded him and triggered the will of the emperor within him.
As if sensing the power within Ye Futian, the statue became even more dazzling. In Ye Futian's mind, the figure of the Ocean King was extremely imposing. He held a golden halberd in his hand and walked towards his mind step by step. It was extremely domineering, wanting to crush all power that opposed him.
Ye Futian's eyes stared straight at the statue. His spiritual will seemed to burn and the Imperial Divine Fire appeared. The will of the emperor hidden in the depths of his mind seemed to feel provoked and was also stimulated. In that instant, a divine figure appeared in his mind. It was Ye Futian's figure, but at that moment, his body was burning with Divine Fire and bathed in the Imperial Divine Light. He was like a true emperor, insufferably arrogant. Everyone had to bow down to him, including the Ocean King.
Bang! The cultivators who had stepped onto the golden stairs were sent flying and fell below. They grunted and felt their spiritual wills being injured. Their faces were pale.
"What's going on?" This was not Pang Kun's first time here. He had stepped into the ruins last time, so how could he fail this time?
Raising his head, he saw that the golden statue was radiating a brilliant light that pierced his eyes, making it difficult for him to open his eyes. Not only that, endless rays of light flowed above the god-like palace. Beams of light frantically gathered on the statue, making it seem as if the statue had come to life. It was as if the real Ocean King was about to appear.
A supreme pressure swept across the sea region. This was true saintly might. Below the golden staircase, everyone on the golden ancient road trembled. Under that pressure, it was as if they wanted to prostrate themselves.
It wasn't just them. The huge body of the proud black dragon was also restless. The demonic beast let out a series of roars, shaking the entire sea.
"What happened?"
The faces of the experts from the three Holy Lands were all pale. Just a wisp of that pressure had descended upon them, and they already felt that it was difficult to bear. How could such a situation occur?
There didn't seem to be any Saints here today, right?
A wisp of terrifying will swept across the sea region. Golden rays of light broke through the depths of the sea, rushing out from the surface and shooting into the sky. At that moment, the golden rays of light could be seen from all around the boundless sea.
Many of the experts from the three Holy Lands were already lying on the ground with their eyes closed. Their bodies trembled slightly, but no one dared to let their guard down. They did everything they could to resist that pressure, and they had no time to care about others.
It wasn't just the human cultivators. The demonic beasts were doing the same as well. They all prostrated themselves, worshipping the statue of the Ocean King.
Ye Futian's body was also trembling. He felt that even his soul was trembling. He had never thought that this would happen. The Ocean King must have been an extremely domineering figure when he was alive. After sensing the will of the emperor in his mind, he wanted to forcibly erase it.
He finally understood why Saints were unable to enter the ruins.
Unless one's willpower was stronger than that of the Ocean King when he was alive, they could suppress his will.
Of course, Ye Futian didn't have such an ability. Although he had the will of the emperor in his body, he was unable to completely activate its power. Burning the will of the emperor had only activated a portion of its power. If the statue of the Ocean King had targeted his will, it would have been able to easily erase it. However, what the Ocean King had sensed was the will of the emperor. He wanted to erase the will of the emperor in Ye Futian's mind, and that was why this situation had occurred.
Ye Futian felt a splitting headache, and his head felt like it was about to explode. It was as if there were two gods fighting in his mind, and it was practically killing him.
The entire palace was shaking, and the endless streams of light seemed to have been activated by the matrix. It was as if a god had walked out of the holy statue and imprinted itself in Ye Futian's mind. Ye Futian was furious. The Ocean King was too powerful.
The will of the emperor seemed to be angry as well. The divine light of the emperor shone brightly, and Ye Futian's body burst with dazzling light. However, no one was appreciating it at that moment. Everyone was lying on the ground, and the light that burst from the statue was enough to overshadow all other light.
The statue began to tremble as well, along with the palace.
Boom … With a loud noise, the golden statue that looked like a god exploded into pieces, turning into huge golden rocks. Endless light entered Ye Futian's mind and then disappeared. That terrifying pressure disappeared in an instant.
At that moment, Ye Futian seemed to have collapsed. He sat down powerlessly, and his body was instantly drenched from the impact of the seawater.
It was not just him. Before this, everyone had used their Spiritual Qi to resist the invasion of the seawater, and their clothes had not gotten wet. However, at that moment, everyone was directly exposed to the seawater, and they were all drenched.
But at that moment, they were not in the mood to pay attention to this. Instead, they looked at the shattered giant and the remaining half of the statue. Many of them trembled slightly.
The statue of the Ocean King had been destroyed.
Everyone was well aware of what this meant.
The Halberd of Time and Space — Nothingness was about to reappear in the land of the Nine States.
Even if they could not take it away this time, the destruction of the statue meant that the palace could no longer stop saints from entering. If a cultivator of the Saint Plane came in person, the result would be obvious.
"All of you, return to the Ocean King Palace immediately. Move out now, "Pang Kun ordered the cultivators. They did not hesitate, and their bodies shot through the air towards the sea. The cultivators of the Celestial Cliffs and the North Deep also reacted, and they also ordered people to inform the others.
If they could not get the Halberd of Time and Space, then they could only fight for time. The cultivators of the Saint Plane who arrived first had the highest chance of getting the divine implement.
"Come, let's go in."
Pang Kun and the others stepped through the light screen and into the palace. Then, everyone else stepped inside one after another. Without the statue in the way, there was no resistance at all.
Everyone easily entered the interior of the palace.
Ye Futian also came inside. There was no seawater here. Even though the statue was broken, the seawater was still blocked by the invisible light screen.
He looked ahead. There were many broken stone pillars in the bright and spacious golden palace, which had collapsed randomly on the ground. There were complex patterns on the walls and the ground, but at that moment, they were all dim.
"The matrix has been destroyed," Fang Tu said. The last time they had entered here was different from now. At that time, the entire palace had been extremely glorious, and the light of the matrix had been flowing.
"The collapse of the statue must have caused the matrix to be destroyed. Who knows what happened just now?" Pang Kun's eyes swept across the crowd. "Who was it that triggered the power of the statue?"
"Do you think it was one of us?" Fang Tu asked.
"Who else could it be other than us?" Pang Kun looked at him. "The statue only targets the people in front of the palace, so it must have been one of us. However, even cultivators of the Saint Plane were suppressed by the statue. Who could have broken the statue?"
He could not understand it. It was impossible to say that there was an extremely powerful cultivator of the Saint Plane hidden among them.
"Now that the matrix has been destroyed, everything in the ruins will probably be different from before. Be careful," Fang Tu said. Everyone nodded and walked forward.
At that moment, Liu Zixuan found that many people were staring at her. Her expression was not very good, especially those from the North Deep. Their eyes were unscrupulously staring at her alluring body. Because she had been soaked in seawater, her clothes stuck to her body, perfectly outlining her sexy figure. Some parts of her body were faintly discernible.
Because she had been too shocked before, she had not paid much attention, but now that she felt the strange gazes, she took out a coat from her storage ring and put it on, wrapping her delicate body in it.
Lin Yu could not help but stare a few more times before looking away. At that moment, Liu Zixuan's body had been too tempting.
Liu Yu was the same. Her figure was excellent, so she naturally attracted some gazes. However, because of Liu Zixuan's presence, there were fewer gazes on her. At that moment, she also took out a coat to wrap around her body.
"Be careful." A voice was heard, and in an instant, a terrifying demonic aura descended. Cold eyes looked in their direction. From inside the palace, terrifying demonic beasts appeared and stepped out.
"Welcome to the Ocean King's Palace again." A cold voice came from the depths of the palace, sending chills down everyone's spine. Everyone felt as if they were being stared at by a pair of eyes. Those eyes could ignore the distance between them and land on them.
Ye Futian looked into the distance and followed that feeling. He seemed to see an incomparably huge beast, like a demon god. Moreover, an extremely terrifying aura emanated from its body.
"Liu Yu, Liu Han, let's go," Ye Futian transmitted his voice to the two of them. He took Liu Yu's hand and quietly retreated, wanting to leave the palace.
He discovered a very terrifying scene!
