Solidus could sense it, and so could Ji Chen, and it felt oddly familiar.
This ominous aura, he had sensed it not long ago in the Panas Battle instance.
— Demons!
Demons appearing in the main world? Or was there something related to demons?
If it was the latter, it would be somewhat manageable, but if it was the former, it would be a grave matter.
However, without seeing it with his own eyes, he couldn’t make a definite judgment.
“Sir Solidus, we must be extremely cautious on this journey.”
Solidus hesitated for a moment, but seeing the seriousness on Ji Chen’s face, he nodded solemnly.
The group continued to move forward.
The desolation of the ocean was entirely different from that of the land.
The desolation of the ocean was characterized by the lush underwater vegetation, yet it was impossible to see any signs of life for miles. The more prosperous the vegetation, the more it accentuated the desolation, like an empty city without inhabitants.
Moreover, the closer they got to the semi-closed mystic realm that Solidas mentioned, the more intense and obvious the ominous aura became. Even the sea crystal wyrms showed expressions of disgust.
“It’s right ahead.”
Solidus’ voice revitalized Ji Chen, who focused his gaze ahead.
It was a vast ocean basin that stretched as far as the eye could see. It sank a hundred meters from the seafloor, and a spatial rift, dozens of meters long, hung vertically at the bottom of the basin. Its eerie purple light made it seem exceptionally scary as if it concealed some great terror.
“It’s called a semi-closed mystic realm because this place lacks a stable entrance and exit, and this spatial rift could close at any time.”
Solidus looked at the eye-shaped rift that flickered like a devil’s eye and said with a solemn tone.
If it weren’t for the immense favor Ji Chen had granted him this time, he wouldn’t have been willing to come here. No one knew when this rift would disappear, and being trapped inside would be the most serious consequence.
“A spatial rift?”
Ji Chen paused and added, “Kraken has the ability to pierce through space and stabilize spatial rifts. You can rest assured.”
Solidus looked at this sea monster with a hint of surprise and wariness in his eyes.
This giant octopus was undoubtedly an epic-tier creature, coupled with its colossal size, its combat strength was formidable. The ocean was not the same as the land, and large sea creatures could truly dominate here.
Combined with other legendary-tier heroes and legacy-tier heroes, this human unexpectedly possessed six high-tier heroes, which even someone as experienced as Solidas found extremely astonishing.
Furthermore, with this army composed of fifth and even sixth-tier units, the power of the Ocean Crown on the surface was quite impressive. However, he didn’t believe it was just limited to this. During his brief stay on the New Moon Islands, he had sensed several powerful and mysterious auras hidden on the island.
Solidus had encountered Lords of Glory in the past few months, but he had never seen such a powerful individual before, surpassing other Lords of Glory by a wide margin.
Further recalling what Ji Chen had said about having a way to break through the potential limit using the high-level Dragon Whale bloodline, Solidas seemed to understand something. If that were the case, perhaps he could ask this human for help with that matter?
Seeing Solidus suddenly fall into silence and seemingly pondering something, Ji Chen couldn’t help but ask, “Sir Solidus, do you have any concerns?”
Solidus temporarily set aside his thoughts and shook his head, saying, “Nothing, let’s prepare to go in.”
Back when they were in the Frozen Wilderness of the Divine Battle Ancient Battlefield, Kraken needed the Deceiver to use a certain scroll to disrupt the spatial structure from the outside to enter. However, this semi-closed mystic realm was already on the brink of collapse. Along with its fragility came a vulnerable spatial structure. Even without disrupting the spatial structure, Kraken could easily open a space passage connecting the inside and outside.
Entering the mystic realm through this spatial rift, their vision turned white, and they instantly arrived at another place.
Before them was a vast expanse of water, but the sea surface was pitch-black, covered by dense black clouds that seemed ready to press down. Countless branched lightning bolts illuminated the sky. Upon closer inspection, one could see numerous small and large violet fissures pervading the air. They seemed to pulsate and throb, directly connecting to the void. If touched inadvertently, there was a high chance of being sucked into the void.
Chaos, fragility, oppression.
This was Ji Chen’s first impression of this secret realm, far worse than the Frozen Wilderness of the Divine Battle Ancient Battlefield. It made him doubt whether any lifeforms could survive here.
In the far distance, a floating mountain hovered above the sea surface out of nowhere. It cast a deep shadow amidst the constant lightning, appearing magnificent against the gloomy sky.
“Those floating mountains are the nests of one of the indigenous tribes living in this mystic realm,” Solidas pointed to the floating island and explained, “Our destination is not there, so there’s no need to provoke them.”
Ji Chen nodded in agreement. To survive in such a hostile environment, these indigenous tribes likely possessed some unique abilities, and there was no need to provoke unnecessary conflicts.
“That epic-tier Deep Sea Dragon Whale is not far from here, underwater.”
The pitch-black sea surface, reflected by the dark clouds, appeared terrifying, but as soon as Ji Chen entered the water, he felt like he had control over everything. His consciousness extended far, far away with the flow of the
water..
