Their faces were shocked as they looked back.

The terrifying explosion continued unabated.

It took nearly ten minutes before it slowly stopped.

The area in front of them was already riddled with holes, pitted and cratered, and many of the surrounding black mountains had already collapsed completely.

The Holy Beast Black Tortoise, after unleashing such a terrifying strike, became extremely weak, its breath wilting, huddled in its shell motionless.

On one side, the Dragon Subduing Cauldron suddenly soared into the sky, revealing the Evil Monarch Wenti once again.

Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, and with a sharp gaze, he glanced at the extremely weak Holy Beast Black Tortoise, a rich smile quickly appearing on his face.

The opponent’s desperate strike had severely damaged its own Primordial Qi!

This was heaven’s help for him!

"Die!"

A glint of cold light flashed in Evil Monarch Wenti’s eyes, and the Dragon Subduing Cauldron above his head was directly activated by him, emitting a series of strange glows, innumerable runes all appeared, like a brilliant meteor, streaking across the sky to smash fiercely into the scar on the Black Tortoise’s back.

Whoosh!

Boom!

The strike Evil Monarch Wenti launched with all his might was incredibly powerful, beyond imagination, and in an instant unleashed countless beams of energy light.

The Holy Beast Black Tortoise let out a series of mournful wails again, its entire body beginning to twist and writhe violently, then its mouth opened wide, and with a booming sound, a mysterious crystal encapsulating its essence burst from its mouth.

Evil Monarch Wenti’s eyes flashed with delight, his body swiftly soaring into the sky, and grabbed the enormously large crystal, completely black in hue.

"The Black Tortoise Essence! So this is the Black Tortoise Essence, hahaha..."

Unable to restrain himself, Evil Monarch Wenti burst into loud laughter, his voice echoing throughout the entire Endless Sea of Fog.

Everyone was utterly astonished, turning their gaze toward Evil Monarch Wenti.

He had actually killed the Holy Beast Black Tortoise!

Seizing this essence in his hands.

Unease, resentment, struggle, hesitation... all these expressions began to resurface in the hearts of everyone present.

Even Jiang Shi fell into silence instantly.

However!

Just when everyone fell silent, suddenly, an unexpected change occurred. The Holy Beast Black Tortoise, just struck with full force by Evil Monarch Wenti, suddenly moved again. An incredibly large, fierce turtle claw reached out, gripping Evil Monarch Wenti’s body tightly in an instant.

"I will perish together with you!!"

The Holy Beast Black Tortoise roared angrily, its claw exerting its full strength with a violent grip.

Ah!

Even being the Evil Monarch Wenti, caught by the Black Tortoise’s massive claw, he couldn’t help but let out a series of wretched screams, his body struggling desperately, and the Black Tortoise Essence he held in his hand flew out sideways with a whoosh, shooting towards the sky.

"Bastard!!"

Evil Monarch Wenti let out a painful roar.

The previously numb crowd, upon seeing the Black Tortoise Essence flying out again, all flashed their gaze, instinctively rushing towards the Black Tortoise Essence.

Even Jiang Shi was no exception.

"What are you trying to do? Do you intend to rebel? Don’t forget the Soul Mark I’ve planted on you!!"

Evil Monarch Wenti roared in anger.

However, everyone completely ignored him, continuing their rush towards the Black Tortoise Essence.

It was at this moment.

The Holy Beast Black Tortoise, already shaky and on its last legs, suddenly spewed out a terrifying beam of light, piercing through the void, with a deafening roar, blasting fiercely at the Black Tortoise Essence.

Bam!

The large Black Tortoise Essence was struck and exploded on the spot, directly splitting into several pieces.

Everyone’s expressions changed, swiftly reaching for the piece closest to them.

Swish, swish, swish!

Jiang Shi utilized Space Sacred Technique, flickering repeatedly, and in the blink of an eye appeared near a large piece of the Black Tortoise Essence, a giant hand grabbing fiercely at it first.

"Get out!!"

A shout called out, as the Sword Emperor rushed over, a sharp Sword Qi carrying an indescribable terrifying aura, slamming fiercely towards Jiang Shi’s hand.

However, Jiang Shi’s hand clenched, power gathered, and without dodging or avoiding, he punched rapidly towards the Sword Emperor’s Sword Qi.

Clang!

Boom!

A deafening sound resounded, space turbulence swept in all directions.

The terrifying Sword Qi emitted by the Sword Emperor was crushed into pieces on the spot by Jiang Shi’s punch, the strong attack landing fiercely on the Sword Emperor, causing the Sword Emperor to let out a strange cry and fly backward on the spot.

"You!"

His heart filled with shock and disbelief.

This Jiang Shi had concealed himself so deeply?

Daring to catch his world-destroying Blade Qi barehanded?

Pfft!

In an instant, as the Sword Emperor was blasted away, Jiang Shi seized a piece of Black Tortoise Essence tightly in his hand, and without looking back, his figure flashed onto the small boat, swiftly rushing along the path he came.

At this moment, strong booming sounds roared from several other directions.

The Evil Monarch Wenti, controlled by the Black Tortoise’s claws, watched as the remaining Black Tortoise Essence was snatched away by the others in a frenzy, his eyes turning scarlet with rage. He wielded the Dragon Subduing Cauldron, furiously striking at the Black Tortoise’s back.

In his furious onslaught, finally!

The Black Tortoise Holy Beast, exhausted, released its claws powerlessly.

As soon as the Evil Monarch Wenti was freed, he let out a sharp shout and began instant teleportation, appearing amidst Shen Ao, Chi Huang, and the others in an instant, one palm sweeping out with unmatched power.

Shen Ao, Chi Huang, and the others’ expressions changed one by one; without a second thought, they quickly flew backward, fleeing straight into the Mist Sea.

Boom!

The terrifying strike of the Evil Monarch crushed the space into a hollow, directly exploding, and an endless tide of energy engulfed the area, leaving no one able to withstand it.

The divisible Black Tortoise Essence was grabbed by him then and there.

Then the Evil Monarch Wenti once again rushed swiftly in another direction. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

The Master Calculative, Venerable Wuxiang who were competing for it, turned pale, each snatched a piece of Black Tortoise Essence and turned to flee.

The Sword Emperor’s face was ashen, blasted away by Jiang Shi in one move; seeing everyone seize the essence and scattered, his fury was blazing, yet he had to flee quickly as well.

"You cannot escape, the Black Tortoise Essence that belongs to me, no one can take it away!!"

The voice of the Evil Monarch Wenti was terrifying, suddenly starting to chant words in his hand.

The restrictions planted deep within the souls of everyone suddenly erupted all at once, as if transformed into countless sharp blades, stabbing toward everyone’s souls.

Ah!

A painful cry rang out instantly from the misty distance.

But despite this, everyone fled quickly while desperately suppressing the soul restrictions within them.

Jiang Shi, on his side, was also affected by the bizarre restrictions.

However, in the moment of bursting forth, the Soul Devouring Talent quickly began to take effect, rapidly purging the soul taboos from his body.

In just a brief moment.

The mysterious power rooted in the deepest part of his soul began to rapidly disintegrate.

Jiang Shi maneuvered the small boat, directly accelerating, swiftly distancing himself.

...

The white fog was endless.

Vast and boundless.

Walking alone here felt like floating on the edge of apocalypse.

Jiang Shi stood on the small boat, vigilance in his eyes, gazing at the monotonous scenery in all directions.

Three days had gone by in the blink of an eye.

Yet he still couldn’t completely escape this Endless Sea of Fog, instead feeling a strange sensation of plunging ever deeper.

"Damn it, I’m not going to get lost here, am I?"

His face was grim, using Insight Talent to peer beneath the small boat, striving to find some Black Gold Beasts; if he could locate them to lead the way, he could effortlessly leave here.

As time passed.

Jiang Shi’s small boat continued aimlessly forward.

The silence around was extreme.

Earlier, he could hear distant roaring from time to time, but now even the roaring had vanished.

Just as Jiang Shi frowned tightly, continuing to drift forward, suddenly he had a feeling, rapidly turned back.

He saw a point of blood-red light rapidly rushing toward him from the area behind.

A flash of sharpness crossed his eyes, instantly recognizing the figure.

It was Chi Huang, a master of the Blood Phoenix Race!

No!

There was another in his hand!

A master of the Asura Race, Luo Tian!

Luo Tian’s physical body had been destroyed, leaving only a Blood Pill and soul, all held in Chi Huang’s hand at this moment.

Whoosh!

Chi Huang’s speed was as fast as lightning, landing on Jiang Shi’s small boat almost instantly.

"Kid, head southeast! The Evil Monarch is coming after us!"

As soon as Chi Huang landed, he shouted immediately.

Southeast?

Jiang Shi discerned the direction, immediately controlled the small boat, and quickly rushed over.

With a whoosh, the small boat cut through the air, leaving this place swiftly.
