Trio
"Two World-Ending Auras?"
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone fighting bathed in blood was stunned.
The next moment, they seemed to have also sensed the Aura fluctuations in the distance, and their expressions instantly turned ugly!
"There really are two World-Ending Auras... How is this possible? Could it be that not only has the territorial map of the Forbidden Sea expanded, but it has also bred a second World-Ending Calamity?"
"Rumor has it that the Calamity of Taboo is lazy by nature and dislikes fighting. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't dare cross the Forbidden Sea either... But if a second World-Ending Calamity appears, the situation is completely different."
If this was really the case, then it was definitely terrible news for their group. Even if they tied themselves together, they probably wouldn't be able to walk out of the Forbidden Sea alive today.
"It shouldn't be... World-Ending Calamities should repel each other. How could two World-Ending Calamities appear in one territory?"
Bang——!!
Looking at the increasing number of Calamities around her, the killing intent in Hong Xiu's eyes grew increasingly menacing. Just as she prepared to raise her spear and continue carving out a bloody path, a Calamity suddenly seemed to have noticed something, and directly dove to the bottom of the sea with a plop, vanishing without a trace.
Following closely was a second one, a third one...
The Calamities that had originally surrounded the Judgment Delegation now seemed to have run into a Plague God, frantically fleeing into the distance.
Within just a few seconds, all that remained in this sea area was churning bloody water, floating corpses of Calamities, and the members of the Judgment Delegation covered in wounds with dumbfounded expressions.
"The Calamities all retreated?" A member of the Judgment Delegation spoke in astonishment. "What happened?"
"In the ocean, when a school of fish suddenly flees collectively without warning, it often indicates that something even more terrifying... is approaching this place."
"This is the Forbidden Sea, what else could be more terrifying?"
"... Look, over there, are there three people?"
A voice suddenly rang out.
Above the dead silent and oppressive sea surface, everyone simultaneously looked into the distance.
The lead-gray clouds were like floating mountain peaks, suppressing the end of the horizon. On the sea surface floating with endless ice floes and corpse fragments, three figures were stepping on the void, walking slowly over...
One person was holding a Red Paper Umbrella and wearing a Great Crimson Theatrical Robe, like the only scarlet in this gray world. Even if the umbrella's brim shielded half of his face, everyone could still sense a ferocious and ominous Aura that looked down upon the world, sweeping across the Forbidden Sea;
One person was also wearing a Theatrical Robe. His appearance was like a youth, with his hands behind his back, as if Strolling Leisurely in his own garden. The Demigod Tier Oppressive Aura matched equally with the figure with the Red Paper Umbrella on the sea surface, almost suffocating everyone;
One person was wearing black clothes, with a wolf-tail hairstyle, and his gaze was as cold as an iceberg. Although no powerful Aura fluctuations could be sensed from his body, his every movement carried a trace of mystery.
The moment these three people appeared in everyone's line of sight, a look of astonishment surfaced on the face of every member of the Judgment Delegation!
Under the Oppressive Aura of a World-Ending Calamity and a Demigod, even the few Judgment Proxies didn't dare to act blindly without thinking. They just stood in place like sculptures, watching helplessly as the three people passed by them.
On this Stage of the Forbidden Sea filled with death and cold, they who carved out a bloody path were not the protagonists... Those three were.
In the instant he passed by everyone, that young man with the wolf-tail hairstyle and cold expression cast a faint glance over here, then withdrew his gaze, continuing to walk towards the depths of the Forbidden Sea with the other two without turning his head.
He was the only one among the three who reacted to the Judgment Delegation. The Red Paper Umbrella and the youth in the Theatrical Robe beside him didn't even cast a glance at them. It was precisely because of this that the young man's face seemed like a brand in that instant, deeply engraved in everyone's hearts...
A question surfaced in everyone's minds:
— Who exactly are they?
In this suffocating dead silence, the figures of the three gradually drifted further away and disappeared from everyone's line of sight. Only at this moment did their tense bodies relax...
"A World-Ending Calamity... a Demigod... actually walking together?? How is this possible?"
"Wait, that Red Paper Umbrella is emanating a World-Ending Aura, but from his appearance, he's just a human... Which World-Ending Calamity is that?"
"And that youth wearing the Theatrical Robe, is there such a tender Demigod in the world?"
"Thinking carefully, that young man in black clothes is still the most bizarre. To be able to walk shoulder to shoulder with a World-Ending Calamity and a Demigod... exactly what is his background?"
"They just swaggered towards the depths of the Forbidden Sea like this? What do they want to do?"
"..."
Full of doubts, everyone began whispering among themselves on the sea surface. The few Judgment Proxies also looked at each other blankly.
"The surrounding Calamities have all been scared away, let's hurry up!" Hong Xiu didn't distract herself to care about those three people anymore, but decisively spoke at the first moment. "Borrowing this opportunity to rush out, we can minimize our casualties!"
"Alright!!"
"Thanks to these three people, otherwise to rush out of the Forbidden Sea, at least half of us would still have to die."
"After leaving the Forbidden Sea, immediately transmit what happened just now back... A World-Ending Calamity and a Demigod joining forces to invade the Forbidden Sea. This news is enough to shake the Five Great Realms."
"..."
...
Above the churning sea surface, Jian Changsheng silently let out a sigh of relief.
"Worthy of being the Forbidden Sea, to actually be able to create such a realistic illusion... What was it called again? A mirage?" Jian Changsheng muttered to himself. "I knew it, how could humans appear in a hellhole like the Forbidden Sea? Fortunately I wasn't fooled."
Master cast a subtle glance at him with a strange expression and didn't speak.
"Speaking of which, we've already rushed to the doorstep of the Calamity of Taboo, and it hasn't given any reaction?" Jian Changsheng was still somewhat worried.
"Chen Ling" was a World-Ending Calamity, and Master was a Demigod. He was the only true Fourth Order. If a World-Ending battle really erupted, he was afraid the aftershocks of the battle could blow him into pieces. It wasn't his fault for being deeply worried.
"The Calamity of Taboo?" "Chen Ling" sneered. "A coward who has empty martial strength but is willing to be a Cowardly Turtle... Even if I ride on its face, it wouldn't dare have any reaction."
In his words, "Chen Ling" was full of disdain for the Calamity of Taboo. It wasn't his first time dealing with that guy, but not once had that guy dared to clash head-on with him... Whether it was in the Gray World or back in the soon-to-be-extinguished Aurora City, it was always like this.
"So, exactly where is the place you want to go?"
Sensing "Chen Ling"'s impatient gaze, Master lowered his head slightly and looked towards the very center of the Forbidden Sea, the position emanating the Aura of the other World-Ending Calamity... He stretched out his hand, pointed there and said:
"Oh, very close, it's just inside the belly of that 'coward' you mentioned."
