Boom!
The lake seemed to freeze at this moment.
That huge body of the dark fish fell down and smashed on the flame warship, causing the ship to be divided into several parts. At the same time, those who got slammed together were those who failed to escape on time! Several world espers who were slow also couldn't escape death. As for those domain espers who ridiculed Su Hao...
They were pressed into human meat patties!
Die, die, die!
There was no suspense!
The flame warship was utterly destroyed as the body of the dark fish smashed it into the lake water. Those who managed to escape stepped on the split parts of the warship and looked at this scene bitterly. In the end, it was still over for them!
With the destruction of the flame warship, the number of deaths also skyrocketed.
How could they continue to fight?
Oh Wu Ming...
Everyone looked at that figure bitterly. If they listened to him just now, would it end up like this? They had endless remorse in their heart. One needs to know many of the victims were their own disciples! All domain espers died! Several of those who just broke through had also died.
How tragic this is!
And all these things happened just because they didn't listen to Wu Ming's reminder?
At this time, Su Hao once again became alert and shouted, "Quick, kill it now! Or else we will all die here!"
Su Hao's urgent voice awakened everyone.
With that lesson earlier, without Su Hao having to remind them again, they attacked subconsciously against this giant dark fish that hadn't sunk back to the bottom of the lake yet. With a bang, countless powerful Rule Force was blasted out and also boundary spirit!
For the flame warship to be destroyed, that wasn't an entirely bad thing.
Just as the dark fish destroyed the warship, the boundary spirits which made up the ship suddenly surrounded it!
Boom!
Boom!
The power of boundary spirits erupted.
That giant dark fish was stupefied. With its poor IQ, it was impossible for it to understand why a ship that it had already destroyed could try to kill it.
Swish!
The boundary spirits flashed.
The gravely injured dark fish panicked because it felt the threat of death. Its body flicked, causing a giant wave to escape frantically. At this moment, Wan Cheng suddenly took action. A saber of light appeared in his hand as he pointed toward the direction of the dark fish.
"Wave force: Range upon Range of Mountain!"
Boom!
Blue light rays flashed one after another.
The wave which the dark fish escaped to now became his burial place. At this moment, above the lake, all waves were illuminating brilliant azure blue light.
Swish!
Swish!
When the waves calmed down, everyone took a deep breath.
What had they just seen? That huge dark fish was cut into pieces by this endless brilliance before it fell into the lake water. If one were to add some ingredients to this lake, it would look like a fish hotpot. Such terrifying power!
This time, they were in deep trouble.
This time, its death was confirmed.
Everyone looked at Wan Cheng as if he was a ghost. Su Hao remembered what Su Zhengwen told him in the past. Remember, a boundary spirit is just to aid. The might of Rule Force lies in its essence. Only by comprehending the essence of Rule Force and able to exert its essence would its effect be truly powerful!
So...
This is the essence of a Rule Force?
Wave force, only under such unique conditions would it produce its best effect! With such strength, no one here could catch up with him!
Indeed this man is an evildoer.
Everyone looked at Wan Cheng's figure while thinking of it in disbelief. At this moment, Wan Cheng's body swayed, and he collapsed suddenly. Yan Tianyu hurriedly held him up, and everyone realized that his strength had been overdrawn. No matter how strong he is, he was still someone who just broke through.
After arranging their thoughts, everyone smiled bitterly.
A world esper who just broke through already surpassed everyone here. What era is this?! When they looked at Su Hao, they were also revealing an indescribable look. There is still another crazier one here — a domain esper who failed to breakthrough but commanded everyone.
What a world this is!
Everyone regained their composure.
However, there was no time for them to ponder. When they looked at the destroyed warship and the calm Taihu Territory, all of them revealed a heavy look.
It turned out that... this is Nine Great Despairs?
It turned out that... this is the spiritual sea storm?
This time, they were in deep trouble.
This was just the beginning.
At first, there were 22 disciples. Ten of them stepped into the world realm. Twelve of them were still domain espers. Now, all the disciples except Su Hao died. Out of those ten who stepped into the world realm, three died, leaving only seven.
Including Su Hao, out of 22 disciples, only eight remained alive.
Is it easy to breakthrough into the world realm?
In Taihu Territory, breaking through into the world realm is simply many times easier than outside! However, being able to breakthrough didn't mean that you can come out alive. Only when one survives that you can be a true world esper.
As for the originally 28 world espers...
One fell into Su Hao's trap and died. Just now, a number of them didn't listen to Su Hao and failed to escape. As a result, seven of them were killed, leaving only twenty.
Among them, there was still this Chen Ge, a rejected product.
With the end of the spiritual sea storm, out of fifty people, twenty-two men died, leaving behind twenty-eight people. This was a statistic that terrified everyone.
Nine Great Despairs are indeed worthy of its reputation.
It was so easy to breakthrough into the world realm in Taihu Territory. Then, why did the Federation have such a small number of world espers? Now, the answer had appeared...
It was a cruel answer.
The wreckage from the flame warship didn't vanish even though it was torn apart. Everyone stood on one of the wreckages in silence.
"The flame warship, it can be condensed again right?" Su Hao suddenly broke the silence.
"En." King of Fire had lost all his anger.
Glancing at everyone, he reunited the flame warship. The new world espers also provided their Rule Force to help in reuniting the warship. Unfortunately, they had no boundary spirit. Thus, after the warship recovered, the size was also much smaller.
However, it didn't affect everyone much because…
Twenty-two people were missing.
Without going forward, everyone was busy regaining their strength.
Chen Ge quietly walked toward Su Hao and sent a message, "You brat, aren't you too cruel?"
"What does that have to do with me?" Su Hao rolled his eyes.
"Nonsense, if you want them to believe you, there are many other ways, right? Yet, you chose a method that is the hardest to make others believe..." Chen Ge gave him a meaningful look, "If not for the warship collapsing and the boundary spirits moving, that dark fish wouldn't die this easily."
"Really?" Su Hao declined to comment and smiled indifferently, "Sacrifices are always inevitable."
"This kid..."
The shock in Chen Ge's heart was hard to conceal. This kid had indeed calculated all of this ahead of time! Those few people who ridiculed him had probably triggered him. This kid, his means were getting more and more ruthless! However, this is the right psychological quality of a really strong esper.
Having said that, Chen Ge suddenly remembered that he had tricked Su Hao quite a number of times.
Damn it!
This kid can't be selling him off later right? Chen Ge looked at Su Hao, who was brimming with a smile that made his heart skip a beat. If this daddy apologizes now, is it still not late? If Su Hao knew what Chen Ge was thinking, he would probably laugh to death. The legendary Magistrate Chen Ge could actually be afraid?
It went on for a long time.
Only when everyone recovered to their peak did the flame warship depart again.
However, compared to last time, everyone now stood upright and was ready to fight at any time. There was no longer anyone trying to show off like before.
They just wanted to keep surviving!
Boom!
As the flames rose up the sky, the warship departed!
Taihu Territory.
After being explored by people many times, it was divided into three parts.
The first part was to catch the spiritual fish that was located in the shallowest part of the lake. Of course, Su Hao encountered a unique case during this first part of the trial, the spiritual sea storm!
As for the second part of the trial, it was for the world espers to experience, which is located at the center of Taihu Territory.
There, one could consolidate Rule Force and understand its essence. It was beneficial for all world espers. This was also the warning that Wan Cheng's master told. If you fail the first trial, you can only be a side character for the upcoming journey. Fortunately, everyone in the warship was a world esper, except for Su Hao and Chen Ge.
As for the third part of the trial, it was an unknown land. At present, no one dares to set foot there, the deepest part of Taihu Territory.
According to the legend, in the deepest part of Taihu Territory, there were mysterious powerful techniques on how to condense a boundary spirit. Even the lowest ones are in the third grade. In fact, fourth grade boundary spirits are available and also the legendary fifth grade! If you're lucky enough to get several secret techniques, then you can easily gather powerful boundary spirits!
It was just that because it was too scary, no one dared to step in there!
Unfortunately, according to Chen Ge's calculation, the third card they were looking for was in the deepest part of Taihu Territory.
"What a misfortune." Su Hao smiled.
His eyes became more and more indifferent. The deepest part of Taihu Territory? He will definitely go there! Because he knew that once those three cards were gathered, many of the overwhelming truths would be revealed. At that time, only he could see the truth of this world!
