Unknowingly, more than half a day had passed.
As time flowed on, those present gradually noticed that the Thunder Sea below had become increasingly thin, its once-abundant essence nearly exhausted. The spiritual essence within had clearly been almost completely absorbed.
However, even as the sea water thinned, the sky above was filled with terrifying fluctuations of spiritual power. The source of these fluctuations came from the peculiar jade flasks.
"The Spiritual Divine Liquid has been successfully condensed!"
Suddenly, a voice filled with joy rang out. The top-tier experts present immediately raised their heads, only to see that within the factions of the Shura Gate, Blood Shark Tower, and Ice Pavilion, one of the originally tilted jade flasks had now stopped absorbing the sea water.
At the mouth of the flask, a faint golden glow surged outward, illuminating the sky with a brilliant golden hue.
A terrifyingly powerful spiritual fluctuation spread forth. Under this pressure, even the three Earthly Supremes—Zhong Cang and his companions—felt an oppressive force bearing down on them, causing them to secretly click their tongues in amazement.
Buzz!
Just as the abnormal movement around Zhong Cang’s group drew attention, excited voices erupted from two other directions as well. Golden light surged forth, filling different parts of the sky.
The Barbarian Sect, the Demon Domain, the Dao Palace, and the Snow Valley faction had also successfully condensed potent Spiritual Divine Liquid using their jade flasks.
The seven top-tier forces of the Blood Rock Realm had now divided into three major factions, each reaping significant rewards.
"Finally."
Zhong Cang and his companions smiled broadly at the scene before them, feeling relieved. Their efforts had paid off—they had barely managed to secure a share of the Spiritual Divine Liquid.
"That guy still hasn’t shown any movement... Hmph! He doesn’t know his limits. Trying to refine a perfect Spiritual Divine Liquid? From the looks of it, he might actually fail!"
The Blood Shark Tower Master suddenly shifted his gaze toward Mo Yu. At this moment, Mo Yu’s side was the only place where the Spiritual Divine Liquid had yet to form.
"If he fails, that would be ideal! If it weren’t for this outsider, the three of us could have taken the lion’s share of the Earthly Supreme’s Hidden Treasure. Instead, we’re left picking at the scraps!" Zhong Cang’s expression turned cold.
Without Mo Yu’s interference, their faction, boasting three Earthly Supremes, would have undoubtedly secured the largest portion of the Spiritual Divine Liquid. But this unexpected interloper had forcefully seized seventy to eighty percent of the sea’s essence.
At this moment, in the sky above Thunder Sea, all three major factions found their gazes drawn toward Mo Yu.
After all, the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal in his possession was simply too formidable. It had absorbed the greatest amount of spiritual essence. However, judging by the current situation, it seemed that absorbing too much essence had led to an unexpected risk.
Wind Emperor also looked at Mo Yu nervously. The value of the Spiritual Divine Liquid to Earthly Supremes was beyond question, making Mo Yu’s every move a matter of interest to all present.
Yet, Mo Yu himself remained calm, his gaze fixed intently on the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal before him. The seal continued to draw the last remnants of the Thunder Sea’s spiritual essence.
By now, the Thunder Sea was nearly dried up. The final trace of viscous thunder essence shot into the sky before being absorbed completely into the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal...
With that last wisp of essence absorbed, the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal suddenly fell into silence, devoid of any further movement.
Seeing this, Zhong Cang and his companions immediately revealed expressions of uncontrollable glee. Had Mo Yu actually failed? This outsider!
Boom!
However, just as their hearts filled with joy, a sudden explosion of thunder resounded across the heavens, sending a shock through the minds of all the strong cultivators present.
They hastily looked up.
Then, their eyes widened in astonishment.
In the distance where Mo Yu stood, the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal that had remained still for so long suddenly erupted with golden lightning. The lightning tore through the sky like golden dragons, exuding an unimaginably terrifying pressure.
Bolts of golden lightning continuously spewed forth. A closer look revealed that within the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal, golden light was madly condensing.
Golden mist swirled outward. Within the mist, a small golden embryonic form pulsed faintly.
Thump!
The pulsing was minuscule, but with each beat, it seemed as though the entire sky trembled in response.
All the Earthly Supreme powerhouses present were utterly dumbfounded by the sight. Then, intense jealousy and greed flickered in their eyes. Even an idiot could tell that the Spiritual Divine Liquid Mo Yu had refined was no ordinary one.
Zhong Cang and his companions’ cold smiles froze completely, replaced by expressions as dark as iron. Their eyes locked onto Mo Yu with a murderous intensity, as though they wished to tear him apart on the spot.
Whoosh!
Wind Emperor’s expression turned grave. Without hesitation, his powerful spiritual energy burst forth, forming a protective barrier around Mo Yu.
Clearly, he recognized the terrifying strength of Mo Yu’s Spiritual Divine Liquid. He quickly acted to protect him, wary of any jealous rivals suddenly launching an attack. After all, Mo Yu was powerful, but they were surrounded by no less than seven Earthly Supremes.
A desperate person would do anything, and Earthly Supremes were no exception.
Huff.
Mo Yu let out a slow breath. He reached out his hand and grasped the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal. Through sheer luck and perseverance, he had finally refined the Spiritual Divine Liquid.
"Hehe, Mo Yu, looks like you’ve made quite the haul this time," Wind Emperor said with a chuckle.
Hearing this, Mo Yu smiled slightly. With a thought, the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal radiated golden light. Instantly, golden radiance flooded the sky as a golden stream of light slowly rose from the dragon’s mouth.
At this moment, Zhong Cang and the others finally got a clear look at Mo Yu’s refined Spiritual Divine Liquid. However, what they saw left them completely dumbfounded.
Contrary to their expectations, the so-called Spiritual Divine Liquid was not in liquid form.
Within the golden radiance, golden light condensed into a palm-sized golden embryo. The embryo was covered with extremely ancient markings, and with each faint pulse, it exuded a bizarre, almost lifelike presence.
As soon as this object appeared, the surrounding spiritual energy visibly thickened. With just a single deep breath, even their own internal spiritual energy surged wildly.
A treasure containing such an immense concentration of spiritual essence—any careless attempt to absorb it would be as dangerous as poison to weaker cultivators. Even a Nine-Grade Supreme would not dare refine it recklessly.
"This... this is the Spiritual Divine Liquid?" Wind Emperor couldn’t help but exclaim in amazement. Even he had never seen such an extraordinary form of Spiritual Divine Liquid before.
"It’s actually... a Perfect-Grade Spiritual Divine Liquid!"
When that golden, embryo-like Spiritual Divine Liquid appeared, not far away, Dao Palace’s Feng Yuanzi’s aged eyes widened instantly, shock surfacing on his face as he lost his voice.
No wonder he was so astounded—Spiritual Divine Liquid was already precious enough, but a perfect-grade Spiritual Divine Liquid was truly priceless.
"Damn it, it’s actually perfect-grade Spiritual Divine Liquid!" Zhong Cang’s expression instantly turned extremely dark, his teeth grinding in frustration.
Especially when he looked at the golden core he had painstakingly condensed, and then at the golden embryo in Mo Yu’s hand—the difference between the two was like a polished gem versus a raw stone, a contrast as stark as heaven and earth.
"Perfect-grade Spiritual Divine Liquid..."
Beside Zhong Cang, the Ice Pavilion Lord’s eyes flickered slightly with a hint of greed, but he quickly shifted his gaze toward the six other Earthly Supreme. A meaningful smile surfaced on his otherwise unremarkable face before he spoke.
"Six lords, I have a proposal. Would you be interested?"
Hearing this, Zhong Cang and the others were taken aback. "Ice Pavilion Lord, what do you mean by this?" they asked in surprise.
The Ice Pavilion Lord smiled faintly. Though his expression appeared gentle, an uncontrollable domineering aura surged forth as his powerful voice echoed like thunder across the space.
"Blood Rock Realm has long been divided. Today, I intend to unite it, consolidate our strength, and allow our Blood Rock Realm to truly rise within Skylaw Continent. Such a grand cause—would the six of you be willing to support me?"
As his thunderous voice rang out, everyone present was stunned. The closest, Zhong Cang, looked even more displeased.
"Ice Pavilion Lord, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Their three factions had only formed an alliance for mutual benefit—there was no hierarchy among them. Now, this Ice Pavilion Lord suddenly wanted to place himself above them all—was he out of his mind?
Not far away, the Demon Domain Leader and Feng Yuanzi were also staring at the Ice Pavilion Lord in disbelief. Among the seven Earthly Supreme of the Blood Rock Realm, he had always been the most inconspicuous, never as prominent as Zhong Cang or Ao Sha.
And now, he was declaring that he would unify the Blood Rock Realm? Where did his confidence come from?
"Hah, Ice Pavilion Lord, did you hit your head? We are all Lesser Earthly Supreme, standing as equals. Why should we submit to you?" The Barbarian Sect Leader crossed his arms and sneered.
The moment he spoke, the Ice Pavilion Lord’s eyes narrowed slightly. He chuckled softly and said, "Oh? So you think my strength is lacking?"
The leaders of the various top forces remained silent, tacitly agreeing.
Seeing this, the Ice Pavilion Lord’s lips curled into a strange smile. The next moment, his expression turned sharp, and a thunderous roar boomed across the heavens.
"In that case, I shall let you all witness my true strength today!"
As these words fell, not only did Feng Yuanzi and the others’ expressions change drastically, but even Mo Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly in surprise as he turned to look at the Ice Pavilion Lord.
Under the shocked gazes of everyone in the heavens and earth, the Ice Pavilion Lord suddenly spread his arms with a sinister smile.
At that instant, his pupils turned pitch-black. Immediately after, thick black mist surged forth like ink, blotting out the sky and even causing the space itself to shatter.
That black mist was so powerful that it was indescribable, and within it, there seemed to be an eerie energy utterly incompatible with this world. That power was bone-chilling and terrifying to the soul.
Standing amidst the endless black mist, the Ice Pavilion Lord inhaled deeply, and the rolling mist flowed into his body like a vortex.
As he absorbed the black mist, the pressure emanating from his body soared at an alarming rate.
In just a dozen breaths, his aura had reached the threshold of a Greater Earthly Supreme!
The expressions of the Earthly Supreme present turned ugly. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing—especially that eerie black energy, which even made them feel a chill in their hearts.
"What is that black mist?! Why is it so incompatible with this world’s spiritual energy...?"
"And it’s so evil... its corrosion is terrifying!"
"This power is far too strong. It doesn’t even belong to the Ice Pavilion Lord! Where did he obtain it?!"
Unable to contain their shock any longer, several Earthly Supreme began transmitting their thoughts to one another.
Feng Yuanzi, with his extensive knowledge, fixed his aged gaze on the Ice Pavilion Lord, his expression growing graver by the moment. A few seconds later, he spoke in a deep voice.
"This power does not belong to the Great Thousand World—it is the power of the Extraterritorial Evil Race!"
"Ice Pavilion Lord, you’ve gone mad! You dare to touch such a force?!"
"The power of the Extraterritorial Evil Race?!"
Upon hearing this, the other Earthly Supreme turned pale with horror. The Ice Pavilion Lord had actually gone so far as to absorb a force that didn’t belong in the Great Thousand World?
"I understand now! This must be the power left behind by the Frost Demon Emperor! It is said that the Thunder Saint Sect was destroyed by the Extraterritorial Evil Race, and the Frost Demon Emperor was sealed and suppressed!"
Feng Yuanzi suddenly shouted in realization, his expression full of shock. Clearly, he had pieced together the whole truth.
"This place was once the Thunder Saint’s Supreme Sea. If a seal was to be placed anywhere, the seabed would be the most likely location.
Earlier, on the way here, I saw the Ice Pavilion Lord sneakily entering the depths of the Thunder Sea. At the time, I found it strange and didn’t understand why.
But now, it’s clear—he must have secretly broken the seal and obtained this remnant power of the Frost Demon Emperor!"
As Feng Yuanzi’s analysis unfolded, Zhong Cang and the others’ expressions shifted once more. Finally, they understood—the seemingly unremarkable Ice Pavilion Lord was actually the one who had been hiding the deepest among the seven Earthly Supreme of the Blood Rock Realm.
"Heh, so you’ve finally figured it out..."
As the Earthly Supreme reeled in shock, the Ice Pavilion Lord chuckled from within the boundless black mist. But his smile now carried a far more sinister, eerie quality.
He reveled in the overwhelming power surging within him and said with a grin, "But what you do not know is that the Frost Demon Emperor had long since turned to dust after being sealed for tens of thousands of years. Only a fragment of his power remains.
Though this power is indeed evil, it is not enough to consume me. Once I completely assimilate it, I will take the final step and become a true Greater Earthly Supreme!"
At this point, his sinister grin deepened as his gaze turned toward Mo Yu.
"Outsider, hand over the Spiritual Divine Liquid obediently, and I will spare your life. In the future, when I unify the Blood Rock Realm, you shall have a place within it as well."
