Chapter 424: Huo Xi Appears
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Only to see, the entire sky was completely split into two at this moment.
Behind Kun City, the stars shimmered brightly. But before Kun City, it was vastly different. The sky and ground were pitch black, and the originally densely packed stars seemed swallowed up, creating a very bizarre scene.
Dead silence! The entire world was deathly silent, so quiet it made one’s hair stand on end.
Everyone understood this was not a large void area erased by someone, but a mysterious small world had descended!
And this small world had a unique name in the Southern Region, the Chaotic Sea Star Region! It was called this because it was very difficult to discern direction within. Once inside, even Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouses would lose their bearings.
Whether one could find the inheritance of the World-Transcending Sword Hall was secondary. The most crucial thing was whether they could safely leave the Chaotic Sea Star Region alive.
However, for countless cultivators, life itself meant nothing now. Only strength was fundamental. Without formidable power, it was no different than death.
Therefore, countless beings knew the Chaotic Sea Star Region was extremely perilous, but every time it emerged, countless cultivators would flock to it like ducks to water.
“The Chaotic Sea Star Region…”
“That’s the real Chaotic Sea Star Region!”
“The Chaotic Sea Star Region has truly emerged!”
“It seems our deductions were correct. The Chaotic Sea Star Region will indeed appear here in this life.”
“Hahaha! No matter what, I must obtain the inheritance left behind by the World-Transcending Sword Master!”
“The inheritance in the Chaotic Sea Star Region isn’t only from the World-Transcending Sword Hall. Countless experts have perished over the years. Even finding the inheritance of a saint king or great saint will benefit us for life.”
“Hehe… Still, how many can come out alive once entering?”
Outside Kun City, countless beings discussed spiritedly. Immediately, innumerable formidable creatures transformed into rays of divine light, rushing into the depths of the Chaotic Sea Star Region. From afar, it was like a boundless celestial river.
Each ray embodied a powerful creature. Their numbers were uncountable, surely reaching the millions. From the Quasi-Saint Realm to the Qi Sea Realm, any being that could fly headed towards the Chaotic Sea Star Region at this moment.
In their eyes, this was a chance to defy the heavens and change their fates. Whether or not one could seize this opportunity depended wholly on the individual.
If they missed this chance, they would have to wait for the next one. Unless the current generation’s World-Transcending Sword Master perished. But every generation’s World-Transcending Sword Master was a supreme existence. For them to fall was an extremely difficult matter.
Just as countless experts were about to enter the Chaotic Sea Star Region, only to see, at the edge of the horizon, streaks of scarlet flames soared into the sky, blotting out the sun as they swept over.
This was not a living being, but a divine power! The moment it manifested, ancient saintly might shrouded the world for tens of thousands of miles.
Innumerable crimson flames were like the setting sun, shocking all. Before anyone could react, countless were completely engulfed.
“No…” someone shouted loudly.
This was a human powerhouse who had reached the initial stage of the Quasi-Saint Realm. In the East Barrens, this meant little, at most an elder of a Holy Land. He might not even gain the position of Holy Lord. However, this level of strength was already considered a mighty figure in the Southern Region.
Yet now, facing this attack, he did not even have a chance to struggle, only able to let out a miserable cry. Immediately after, his entire body was swallowed up by the scarlet flames.
After him, countless human experts perished. With but one strike, almost all who wanted to enter the Chaotic Sea Star Region were annihilated!
Those fortunate enough to survive only hesitated briefly before turning and fleeing into Kun City, not daring to make any suspicious moves. It was because of this that they narrowly escaped.
At this point, the other human powerhouses also realized someone was targeting the humans!
Some terrifying existences did not wish to see the World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance fall into human hands. Therefore, someone had secretly prevented the humans from entering the Chaotic Sea Star Region!
With such assurance, it was almost certain the World-Transcending Sword Hall’s inheritance would land in the hands of other races this time.
Thinking of this, all the human beings present felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, hands and feet turning cold.
“It’s over…”
In Kun City, a human expert’s face was ashen as he gazed at the entrance of the Chaotic Sea Star Region, muttering to himself, “I’m afraid the
World-Transcending Sword Master’s inheritance is not fated with the human race this time… Hahaha, I’m afraid from now on, no traces of the human race will remain in the Southern Region!”
Outside the Southern Region, most domains were dominated by the human race, like in the East Barrens!
The East Barrens also had demons and other powerful races like the Golden Crow thriving, but overall, the human side remained stronger.
However, in the Southern Region, this situation was precisely the opposite. Here was the only sanctuary for the myriad races other than the humans. While the human race declined, the other races flourished.
On the surface, the Southern Region seemed to have declined long ago, with sparse spiritual energy. But in truth, many formidable cultivators knew the Southern Region was not so simple!
Beneath the placid exterior, the Southern Region concealed an extraordinarily turbulent undercurrent. Any random location could produce countless ancient experts!
It was also because of this that the human experts did not retaliate against the Southern Region. The human race and other races tacitly maintained their peace.
Today’s events at Kun City made many extremely certain – experts of the myriad races in the Southern Region were likely going to force the entire human race here into a dead end.
They wanted to monopolize all the inheritances within the Chaotic Sea Star Region, not even planning to leave a mouthful of soup for the humans.
“These experts of the myriad races… are a bit too overbearing! In their eyes, we humans are like livestock!”
Among the Kun City crowds, a slender young woman stood there, brows slightly knitted, clear eyes brimming with indignation.
If Su Chen was present, he would definitely recognize her. This was none other than Huo Xi from the Southern Region! In just a few years since they’d last met, Huo Xi’s strength had swiftly progressed.
Thanks to the Eternal Forbidden Body, after breaking through the shackles of the Nirvana Realm, her path ahead was smooth.. By now, she had even touched the edge of the Quasi-Saint Realm!
