After the college entrance examination, my identity as a Mahayana Immortal Venerable could no longer

The icy, bone-chilling seawater instantly flooded our vision.

The descent speed broke the sound barrier. Pure physical mass created a vacuum channel in the seawater.

Five thousand meters deep in the ocean. The water pressure was enough to crush special steel plates into scrap metal. Lu Yuan didn't even blink. His muscles, honed during the Great Ascension stage, tightly locked in the heat within his body. The high-pressure seawater crashed against his skin, instantly evaporating into countless tiny bubbles from his terrifying body temperature, which surged wildly upwards along the hem of his clothes.

At the bottom of the trench, the source of that crimson beam of light was a massive spatial rift.

Lu Yuan exerted force with both feet, crushing a seabed reef weighing several hundred tons, and used the reaction force to directly crash into the crack.

The feeling of weightlessness was fleeting.

The sound of flowing water in my ears disappeared.

Lu Yuan landed on his feet, crushing a pile of withered seashells on the ground.

There's no seawater here. Only air so dry it makes your throat ache.

Directly ahead, a stark white skeleton, several kilometers long, lay across the dried-up seabed like a mountain range. The surface of the skeleton was covered with dark red patterns.

The remains of a dragon in its fusion stage.

In the broad chest cavity of the dragon, there stands a blood-red altar with a diameter of over 100 meters.

The lifeblood of thousands of American soldiers on the aircraft carrier transformed into a sky full of red mist, which was continuously flowing into the center of the altar.

A huge fragment of the Guixu Boundary Stone floats in the very center of the altar.

Above the boundary stone, a fist-sized ball of liquid was held. The liquid had an eerie golden-red color, and even the surrounding space was distorted and deformed by the high temperature.

Extreme Flame Dragon Marrow.

Lu Yuan stared at the ball of liquid.

The Nine Yin Profound Meridian Cold Poison within Lu Qingxue's body cannot be sustained for long by simply drawing upon the Kunlun Earth Vein. That girl's body is currently a spiritual energy reactor that could explode at any moment. To completely eliminate the hidden danger, it is necessary to neutralize it with an extremely pure Yang substance.

This trip to the sea was worthwhile.

The Blood River Sect went to great lengths to deliver building materials, and even stocked up on medicine for treating illnesses. Their delivery service was truly impeccable.

Lu Yuan strode towards the altar.

He had only taken two steps.

The pool of blood churning within the altar suddenly boiled violently. The crimson mist rapidly receded, coalescing in mid-air into a gigantic human face.

An old acquaintance.

I saw a phantom of this face before when I was searching the soul of that outer sect demonic cultivator in the Ye family ancestral land. The seventh elder of the Blood River Sect in the Sirius Star Region.

"It's you again, you native of Earth."

The human face looked down at Lu Yuan. A loud, dry voice echoed throughout the space, causing the surrounding gravel to fall down in a rustling sound.

"They destroyed my teleportation point on the martial arts stage, yet they still dared to jump into the Guixu Secret Realm. Without any true essence fluctuations, they dared to face the protective array set up by a Nascent Soul stage dragon?"

The Seventh Elder let out a cold laugh.

"Leave your grotesque body behind to mend the final gap in the formation!"

The blood-red face suddenly opened its mouth wide.

The dragon skeleton lying on the seabed suddenly had two green flames ignite in its empty eye sockets.

Boom!

The skeleton, several kilometers long, moved.

A massive, white bone claw, the size of a basketball court, slammed down on Lu Yuan with a sonic boom that tore through the air. The claw was wreathed in dense death energy, corroding large craters into the rocks beneath it.

Lu Yuan didn't even raise his head.

He put his left hand in the pocket of his jacket and slowly stretched out his right hand.

boom!

Two hands, one large and one small, collided in mid-air.

The image freezes completely at this moment.

The dragon bone claw, powerful enough to flatten a skyscraper, stopped half a meter above Lu Yuan's head. It could no longer press down even an inch.

The seabed beneath Lu Yuan's feet collapsed, unable to withstand the terrifying downward force, creating a deep pit tens of meters in diameter. But the rock he stood on didn't even have a crack.

"A long worm in its fusion stage."

Lu Yuan spread his five fingers and grabbed a bone finger that was thicker than a tree.

"In the cultivation world, I use this kind of trash to pull millstones. You guys are treating a bunch of leftover bone scraps as treasures. Is there some serious problem with the Blood River Sect's finances?"

Click.

The grip strength of the Mahayana stage explodes instantly.

The seemingly indestructible finger bone, honed during the Integration Stage, emitted a sharp cracking sound under pure physical pressure. Cracks spread wildly along Lu Yuan's finger.

boom!

The entire bone claw exploded into bone dust that filled the air.

The blood-red face in mid-air twisted violently.

This defies common sense and completely violates the ironclad rules of the cultivation world.

How could a mortal body without the slightest fluctuation of true essence possibly crush the bones of a Nascent Soul stage demon beast with mere muscle strength! What terrifying bone density and cell strength that would require!

"What kind of monster are you?!"

The Seventh Elder's voice finally betrayed a hint of barely concealed panic.

"I don't understand foreign languages."

Lu Yuan pushed off the ground with his right foot. His entire body transformed into a black cannonball, rising straight up and hurtling towards the blood-red face in mid-air.

The physical body of the Mahayana stage tore through the air, creating a visible white wave of air.

Lu Yuan crashed headfirst into the face formed by the red mist.

There were no magical clashes. There were no fancy energy collisions.

Lu Yuan spread his arms wide and gripped the invisible interdimensional divine sense within the red mist with his five fingers.

Tear!

He suddenly pulled both hands outwards.

The enormous, blood-red face, along with the interdimensional spirit attached to it, was torn in two with extreme brutality.

"ah--!"

The screams that echoed across the star field shook the entire secret realm space violently.

Lu Yuan fell from mid-air and landed steadily on the edge of the blood-red altar.

He walked to the center of the altar and looked at the huge boundary stone of the Ruins.

The array patterns on the boundary stone have fully lit up. The interdimensional teleportation channel is taking shape.

Lu Yuan took out the three fragments of boundary stones he had previously stolen from his pocket, as well as the two mysterious bronze pieces he had obtained from the car accident and from Xu Changqing.

He pieced the copper sheets together.

The star array pattern instantly lit up with a dazzling red light.

Lu Yuan pressed the assembled copper sheet directly onto the array eye of the Guixu Boundary Stone.

"Since we're already here..."

Lu Yuan exerted force with his wrist, and the pure Yang Qi and blood of the Mahayana stage flowed directly into the boundary stone along his arm.

"I'll bring you some local specialties back with me."

boom!

The interdimensional teleportation array, which was originally rotating clockwise, was abruptly stopped for a second by Lu Yuan's violent physical modification, and then began to rotate wildly counterclockwise.

The array contained the raging energy of the blood and qi of thousands of living people, plus the massive death energy suppressed by the Guixu Secret Realm for hundreds of years. It flowed back into the Sirius Star Region at ten times the speed through the reopened passage.

In the distant depths of the starry sky.

Blood River Sect Main Hall.

The Seventh Elder, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, suddenly opened his eyes.

puff!

He coughed up a mouthful of black blood mixed with fragments of internal organs. The jade pendant on his chest shattered into two pieces with a crack.

The violent energy flowing against the current blasted directly into his sea of ​​consciousness through the teleportation channel.

"Earth...that native..."

Before the Seventh Elder could even finish a complete sentence, his head lolled to the side and he completely fainted.

Inside the Ruins of Guixu.

The teleportation array was completely destroyed. The red light on the surface of the boundary stone quickly dimmed, turning it into an ordinary black stone.

Lu Yuan unceremoniously swept all the boundary stones and copper pieces into his storage ring.

Then, he reached out and grabbed the ball of Extreme Flame Dragon Marrow that was floating in mid-air.

Temperatures exceeding 1,000 degrees Celsius are so high that even steel can instantly vaporize.

But for the skin of a person in the Mahayana stage, this temperature is at most like a hand warmer.

Lu Yuan used a jade bottle he retrieved from his storage ring to collect the dragon marrow. He then turned to look at the out-of-control dragon skeleton.

My sister's marrow cleansing and bone marrow treatment requires more than just dragon marrow; she needs some robust medicinal ingredients.

Lu Yuan walked to the spine of the skeleton. He grabbed a thick cervical vertebra with both hands and stepped on the bone below with his right foot.

Up!

Click!

The entire spine of the dragon was forcibly broken.

Lu Yuan reached into the bone marrow cavity and grabbed a translucent, pale golden tendon. With a flick of his wrist, as if pulling out a hemp thread, he pulled out a three-meter-long dragon tendon.

The large tendons also contain extremely rich essence of qi and blood.

Pack up and call it a day.

Lu Yuan stuffed the main tendon into the ring.

Without the suppression of the Boundary Stone and Dragon Marrow, the Guixu Secret Realm, which had imprisoned the last underwater dragon vein on Earth for hundreds of years, finally collapsed completely.

The spatial barriers overhead shattered inch by inch.

Billions of tons of seawater, carrying devastating water pressure, poured in.

The dragon vein's spiritual energy, suppressed for hundreds of years, burst forth like a tiger unleashed from its cage, surging through the seawater and breaking through the surface.

Jiangzhou. Panlong Mountain Villa.

Lin Zhen sat in front of the monitor screen, holding an unlit cigarette in his hand.

His gaze was fixed on the bottom right corner of the screen.

Just now, the high-dimensional energy vortex in the East China Sea suddenly disappeared.

Lin Zhen hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

On the main screen, the graph representing the global spiritual energy concentration suddenly emitted a piercing alarm.

The originally gentle curve suddenly surged upwards at a completely illogical vertical angle.

Beep beep beep!

The highest-level spiritual energy detector issued by the Celestial Observation Bureau emitted a plume of black smoke due to overload.

"Chief..."

The technician in charge of communications next to me had completely lost his voice.

"A magnitude 12 earthquake has erupted on the seabed of the East China Sea. All the underground spiritual veins along the entire eastern coast of China have come alive..."

The cigarette in Lin Zhen's hand fell to the ground with a thud.

He rushed to the window and pushed it open.

The originally gloomy night sky was now covered by a layer of dense purple mist that was visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, the entire Earth's protective array was torn open, revealing a massive, bottomless rift.
