312: Chapter 312 Heading to the Sea of ​​No Crossing

The three only felt a terrifying counter-shock force surge toward them, their blood and Qi roiling, and their Immortal Emperor physical bodies trembling slightly.

But they did not linger in the fight at all.

Taking advantage of the moment the giant was pinned down by the three killing moves, the three of them simultaneously tore through the Void Realm, their figures flashing as they vanished into the spatial rift.

Almost the instant they stepped into the rift, the spatial crack quickly healed and vanished without a trace.

The giant slowly withdrew his gaze, a flash of melancholy passing through those large blood-colored eyes.

He slowly withdrew the eleven Desolate Supreme Heavenly Mandates, and the pressure around his body gradually receded.

He did not pursue them.

After all, his strength did not exceed the three of them combined.

The three killing moves just now, while failing to wound him, had consumed a significant amount of his Origin power.

He lowered his head, glanced at the messy ground beneath his feet, then looked up toward the depths of the ruins.

The giant slowly turned around and took a step forward, his figure vanishing from the spot.

Leaving only the messy ground and the faint pressure lingering in the air, telling the tale of the earth-shattering battle that had just occurred.

On the other side, the three—Martial God, Artifact Martial Immortal Emperor, and Supreme Immortal Emperor—had already appeared on a wasteland within the ruins.

All three breathed a long sigh of relief, then looked at each other and smiled, a hint of lingering fear flashing in their eyes.

“What a giant, to be so incredibly powerful,” Artifact Martial Immortal Emperor said as he put away his twin hammers, his heart still pounding.

Martial God nodded and said in a heavy voice, “Those eleven Desolate Supreme Heavenly Mandates likely date back to the beginning of creation. Such an existence, slumbering within the ruins, must be guarding some earth-shattering secret.”

Supreme Immortal Emperor held the god-slaying spear, his gaze deep as he looked toward the ruins, slowly saying, “There are likely even more terrifying existences within the ruins.”

The other two nodded, their expressions solemn.

If not for the three of them joining forces with their formidable strength, they might have met their end there today.

Martial God’s brows furrowed, his tone filled with unbelievable gravity: “How can the combat power of the creatures in these ruins be so strong?”

The howling astral winds on the wasteland swept past with dust and sand, making this exclamation seem even heavier.

Beside him, Supreme Immortal Emperor slowly put away the god-slaying spear, the destructive cold light at its tip gradually fading.

Hearing this, he also nodded slightly, his face extremely solemn as he said deeply, “Indeed. Looking at the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, with the cultivation and combat power of the three of us, we already stand at the top of the pyramid.”

“Aside from the Realm Lords of the ten supreme realms—those existences who control the life and death of a realm and exert pressure across the ages.”

“And the Emperor Lords of the Heavenly Road, or the Five Great Emperors of the Endless Sea, how many people can defeat even one of us?”

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the two beside him, his tone carrying a hint of pride that was hard to conceal, yet diluted by a bit of confusion: “Especially when facing the formation of the three of us joining forces, looking across the heavens, there are very few who could contend with it.”

“Even the Demon Ancestor who has suppressed the Monster Realm for eons would not be a match for the three of us together.”

“Aside from the unfathomable Reincarnation Emperor Lord, who among the other eight Emperor Lords of the Heavenly Road could truly best the three of us combined?”

These words were not arrogant. Martial God, Artifact Martial Immortal Emperor, and Supreme Immortal Emperor were all giants who had been famous for eons, each controlling a supreme Dao. When they joined forces, even the taboo existences of the All Heavens and Myriad Realms would have to temporarily avoid their edge.

Yet just now in the ruins, facing that Desolate giant, the three were only barely able to force him back, without gaining the slightest upper hand.

In the end, they had to rely on the gap created by their killing moves to awkwardly tear through space and escape.

Artifact Martial Immortal Emperor put away the twin hammers in his hands, his face full of bewilderment: “It is indeed strange; the combat power of the creatures in these ruins is truly terrifyingly strong.”

“First it was the Nine Abyss Heavenly Beast, and now it was that giant just now. With eleven Desolate Supreme Heavenly Mandates protecting him, his Physical Body is ridiculously tough. My Myriad Catty World-Shattering Hammer only left a few white marks when it struck him.”

These ancient ruins were like a crouching giant beast, hiding countless unknown dangers; every step taken was like dancing on the edge of a blade.

The three of them fell silent.

After an unknown amount of time, Artifact Martial Immortal Emperor was the first to break the silence. His gaze swept over the faces of Martial God and Supreme Immortal Emperor as he said deeply, “Shall we continue searching for opportunities in the ruins, or head to the Bu Du Sea?”

This question hit home for both of them.

Supreme Immortal Emperor pondered for a moment, his gaze flickering. He looked at the churning mist in the depths of the ruins, sighed softly, and said, “We have already spent a lot of time searching for opportunities in the ruins. Let us head to the Bu Du Sea to regroup with Daoist Friend Ming Yun and the others.”

Hearing this, Martial God did not hesitate and said, “Alright.”

Having decided, the three did not delay any longer.

The next moment, three streaks of light soared into the sky, piercing the vast firmament as they sped toward the direction of the Bu Du Sea.

Where the light passed, the astral winds howled, and the clouds were torn into three long gashes.

The three figures soon disappeared at the end of the horizon.

The Bu Du Sea.

Since its birth, this sea area had been shrouded in a heavy layer of mystery and secrecy.

It was by no means as clear and blue as ordinary seas; as far as the eye could see, there was only a dense, inseparable ink-black. The black waves surged, churning up giant waves hundreds of millions of feet high, and where the waves struck, even the Void Realm emitted an overburdened hum.

Above the sea surface, there was no sign of shimmering light, only a deathly darkness spreading wantonly. The black seawater was as thick as ink and emitted a strange aura capable of eroding the Divine Soul and dissolving immortal bones. Even the Physical Body of an ordinary Immortal Emperor, if not treated in time, would be corroded until not even ashes remained.

What was even more heart-palpitating was that this sea area seemed to possess a gravitational pull that swallowed everything.

There had once been peerless experts who didn't believe in the legends and, relying on their heaven-reaching cultivation, attempted to cross this sea, only to be pulled by an invisible force, their bodies falling uncontrollably toward the seabed.

They would be unable to break free from that suction until their magic power was exhausted, finally forced to watch themselves be swallowed by the endless darkness, never to be heard from again.

Over time, an iron rule was passed down—to cross the Bu Du Sea, one must take an bu du ship.

The bu du ship, its Origin unknown, was built entirely from an unknown black ancient wood. The hull was mottled and covered with densely packed ancient runes. When the runes flowed, they would emit a faint golden light, isolating the strange seawater and the terrifying suction.

This boat had no sails or oars, yet it could travel across the Bu Du Sea as if on level ground. Wherever the boat went, the black seawater would automatically part, as if in fear of something.

Since the Creation Secret Realm began, countless Cultivators seeking cosmic supreme treasures have mostly relied on the bu du ship to safely reach the other side of the Bu Du Sea.

Of course, there are never absolute rules in this world.

If someone possessed a Heaven-Defying supreme treasure, they would not need to be bound by the constraints of the bu du ship.

For example, that creation artifact: the Heavenly Book.
