He had been in this sealed space for a day and a night, but Shen Tu Nantian had been meditating the entire time.
Cultivation could not be rushed. To become a peerless Great Emperor, not only did one need extraordinary talent and luck, one also needed to hone one's mind.
To obtain an ancient supreme divine technique, one needed to bathe and burn incense before reading it. This was not a useless ritual, but to adjust oneself to an optimal state.
Now, Shen Tu Nantian was in such a state.
When Shen Tu Nantian entered an ethereal state where he forgot himself, he opened his eyes. With a clap of his hand, a black disk array floated in mid-air and slowly rotated.
As energy was injected into it, the disk array's image immediately appeared.
The giant Kun appeared, and following that, the black-armored warrior, riding his Nightmare Beast, brandished his lance!
Seeing this lance appear, Shen Tu Nantian's pupils constricted. He felt like an invisible hand was pinching his heart, causing it to stop beating and all his blood to stagnate!
"Endure, endure!"
Shen Tu Nantian said to himself in his heart.
His head was covered in sweat as he gritted his teeth. His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails pierced into his palms, causing blood to flow out.
Looking at the disk array itself was probably the Great Empress mystic realm's test of a cultivator's courage.
Shen Tu Nantian was determined to become a peerless Great Emperor. Such an ambition needed great courage to support it.
It was just a small array disc, and what it showed was only an illusion and a shadow. What did that count for?
"Ah!"
Shen Tu Nantian roared towards the sky. He circulated his Yuan Qi to the extreme as the blood vessels on his neck bulged. His eyes were also injured by the lance beam, causing blood to flow out from the corner of his eyes!
However, when the lance pierced through the sky and into the giant Kun's flesh, Shen Tu Nantian could not withstand the immense pressure. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Peng!"
Shen Tu Nantian's body bounced back as he slammed heavily into the wall.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His face was as pale as a sheet.
In just a few seconds, it was as if he had experienced a huge battle. Not only was he greatly drained, he had also suffered serious injuries.
However, he could not see the images in the disk array clearly.
Without seeing it clearly, it was even more difficult to gain insight.
Shen Tu Nantian took a deep breath. He took out a healing relic from his interspatial ring and swallowed it. He then began meditating.
Where there is a will, there is a way. The path of martial arts was originally to open a path in the void where there was no path to walk.
During this process, one would encounter boundless dangers, difficulties, and obstacles. Only by cutting through thistles and thorns and moving forward courageously would one be able to succeed.
This required great perseverance, great luck, and unparalleled talent. Otherwise, why were there only a handful of peerless Great Emperors among the billions of martial artists in the world?
As Shen Tu Nantian warned himself, his heart calmed down.
"I'm going to climb to the peak of martial arts. What's this little bit of difficulty?"
After Shen Tu Nantian recovered slightly, he once again picked up the black disk array...
…
Time passed, day after day. Outside the Great Empress mystic realm, the people from the various large factions were waiting amidst the turbulent sea tide.
The Elders who had entered the Great Empress mystic realm in search of treasures had come out dozens of days ago.
Originally, they thought that the Great Empress mystic realm's trials would last about a month. They never expected that after two months, there were still no signs of the most outstanding elites appearing.
This made many of the family clans' Elders worry.
"The second round of the Great Empress mystic realm is a test of cultivation speed. I wonder how long they will cultivate …"
The Lin family's Matriarch could not relax as she looked at the swaying exit of the Great Empress mystic realm.
Previously, when Lin Yu and company were eliminated, they had revealed the true content of the second trial. It was actually a test of cultivation.
A warrior's cultivation could last a year or so, but three to five years was not considered long.
And during this period of time, they had to wait here. If there were no experts to receive these juniors when they came out, then they would be torn to pieces by the God Burial Abyss's huge whirlpool.
In this huge whirlpool, even the Elders of the various large family clans found it difficult to endure.
Eight to ten days was still alright, but to continuously endure the tearing force of the whirlpool for two months was a great test of their endurance and mental fortitude.
Some people even set up arrays at the bottom of the sea to help them withstand the pressure.
There were also some young Elders who treated the wait in the God Burial Abyss as a form of cultivation. They used the whirlpool's pressure to temper their bodies' Yuan Qi.
However, even so, they slowly felt that they could not withstand it any longer. The reason was that the God Burial Abyss' whirlpool was becoming more and more terrifying. The whirlpool's tearing force was also becoming stronger!
The various large family clans had a few Grand Elders join forces to take turns supporting the arrays, so as to withstand the immense pressure.
Now, two and a half months had passed. The end of the Great Empress mystic realm's trials seemed far away. The Elders of the various large family clans were all worried.
If this trend continued, in another two to three months, the tearing force in the God Burial Abyss would be so strong that even the Grand Elders of their respective factions would find it difficult to withstand.
If the juniors participating in the trials did not come out at that time, they would have no other choice but to leave the God Burial Abyss.
And at that time, the juniors of their respective factions would be sucked into the God Burial Abyss the moment they were teleported out of the Great Empress mystic realm, smashed to pieces!
Now, those who remained in the Great Empress mystic realm were the top elites of the various large factions. Once they were lost, it would be a heavy blow to many of the factions present.
Now, some of the factions were already beginning to regret. If they knew this would happen, they would not have allowed their juniors to participate in the Great Empress mystic realm expedition.
Time passed and a few days passed. Every day, there would be Elders of the various factions looking anxiously at the entrance of the Great Empress mystic realm, waiting for their juniors to appear.
Now, they did not wish for their juniors to have any brilliant performance, they only wished for them to be eliminated early.
On the Li Fire Sect's side, a younger-looking outer sect Elder was standing at the entrance of the Great Empress mystic realm, waiting to receive Gongsun Hong. He was Gongsun Hong's uncle. It was not easy for his family clan to nurture such a good seedling, so he could not die here in a muddle.
Just as he was fidgeting uneasily, he inadvertently glanced at the huge black whirlpool in the God Burial Abyss. It was this one glance that caused him to be completely dumbfounded, as if he had been struck by lightning!
What … What was going on?
Separated by layers of seawater, this young Elder saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life!
The dark and distant God Burial Abyss was mostly hidden at the bottom of the sea, revealing a gigantic hemispherical black hole. That was where the gigantic black whirlpool was.
However, at this moment, in the extremely distant black hemisphere that spanned tens of thousands of miles, a gigantic eye that filled the black whirlpool had appeared silently!
Or it could be said that the gigantic black whirlpool that spanned tens of thousands of miles had turned into an eye!
It was like the eye of a wild beast. It had an amber pupil and a spindle-shaped vertical pupil. Upon seeing this eye, the young Elder's heart stopped beating. Even his soul froze.
He had completely lost his ability to think. An eye had filled the entire black whirlpool?
What … was that thing?
