As the seven phantoms appeared under the Astral Formation, Qin Shi's expression turned serious.
Having dealt with Group Puppet for more than a decade, Qin Shi could tell at a glance who these seven phantoms were. They were Group Puppet's 12 Palaces. From the Sixth Hall Master to the Twelfth Hall Master, there were a total of seven hall master level ominous demons.
Qin Shi had not expected that there would be a total of eight hall master level existences in the 7,000 Sea Palace, including Ming Xuan. From the looks of it, these seven hall masters had been hiding in the 7,000 Sea Palace for a long time. They had just not shown themselves. At the very least, they had been hiding here before Qin Shi had entered the 7,000 Sea Palace five years ago.
With the appearance of the seven hall masters, the 7,000 Sea Palace darkened. The murderous aura surged like thunder clouds.
Many experts were horrified at this moment. Even though these seven experts, other than Ming Xuan, had not reached the Transcendent Realm, everyone could feel a dense pressure from their bodies. In fact, it was an aura that even Feng Kuang, a Transcendent Realm expert, could not look down on.
These experts could not see through it, but Qin Shi knew that it was the bloodline of the ominous demons.
The evil spirit had long said that not all of Group Puppet's 12 Palaces had Transcendent Realm experts. Only the first six palaces and Ming Xuan's mysterious Thirteenth Hall had Transcendent Realm Hall Masters. As for the last six palaces, they were only at the Transcendent Realm. However, Qin Shi had not expected that the Transcendent Realm experts would also be above 900,000 meters. Most importantly, there was a powerful aura that had nothing to do with cultivation coming from these hall masters.
The pressure that these seven hall masters brought to Qin Shi was no weaker than that of a Transcendent Realm expert.
"The Transcendent Realm actually possesses such terrifying power?" Qin Shi's expression turned serious.
"Transcendent Realm?"
Hearing Qin Shi's voice, the 12 hall masters suddenly grinned. "Hehe, little doll, you can't really think that we are only at the Transcendent Realm, can you?"
"Hmm?" Qin Shi suddenly frowned. "Is it not?"
"Tsk tsk, that's right. I reckon that the Heaven Devouring Demon Venerable told you about it. Indeed, thirty thousand years ago, during the era of the Heaven Devouring Demon Venerable, we were indeed only in the World Realm. However, do you think that we would not improve at all in thirty thousand years?" The twelfth Palace Master said with a faint smile.
Qin Shi's heart thumped, and a bad premonition quickly surged into his heart.
That was right. Many people would encounter a lifetime bottleneck after reaching the Transcendent Realm, and it was normal for them to be unable to break through for tens of thousands of years. Just like Fufeng, he was unable to break through to the Ethereal Realm in thirty thousand years.
For example, the Misty Realm, which was the most powerful realm in the world, could no longer be measured by time.
As for the Great Emperor realm, Qin Shi was confident that if it hadn't been for the ancient war, the Human Emperor, the Heaven Devourer, and the Heaven Devourer, it would have been impossible for them to have reached that level in the past thirty thousand years.
Unless it was Zhe Tian's Xue Miao, the Human Emperor wouldn't have chosen such an extreme method. He wouldn't have been willing to sacrifice himself to seriously injure Zhe Tian and seal Devouring Heaven.
However, how could the Twelve Palaces of the Sea Group be ordinary people?
In Qin Shi's eyes, the Transcendent Realm was like a great mountain. It was a supreme height that he could never reach. After all, it was a height that required one to seize heaven's secrets and bear the Mandate of Heaven. However, in the true Barren Spirit Continent, it was not an amazing existence. It was merely at the Immortal Palace Realm, the peak of the supreme pyramid. In that case, it would not be difficult for the Twelve Palaces to break through to this level.
Moreover, it had been thirty thousand years.
As for bearing the Mandate of Heaven, Qin Shi believed that for the Twelve Palaces' Palace Masters, a Mandate of Heaven was not a big deal.
Qin Shi frowned. However, to his surprise, he discovered that the last six Palace Masters' personal worlds were indeed only nine hundred and ninety thousand meters wide, and had not reached the level of one million meters. "The size of their personal worlds is indeed at the Transcendent Realm. Could it be that there is something that I have missed and have not detected?" "Hehe, little fellow, the few of us have actually reached the Transcendent Realm a long time ago.
It's just that we have stopped our personal worlds at nine hundred and ninety thousand meters, and did not continue to expand. After all, you should know that the Transcendent Realm is the Mandate of Heaven, and bears the Mandate of Heaven. Once you have the Mandate of Heaven, you will have to share a wisp of the spiritual qi of heaven and earth. Moreover, once you have reached the Transcendent Realm, you are already at the Immortal Palace Realm. If you act, you will inevitably be targeted by the Immortal Palace Realm. If you do something like that, it will be much more troublesome. "The Tenth Palace Master smiled.
Qin Shi was startled by these words, and his blood-red eyes darkened. At this time, he finally understood why these six Palace Masters had still revealed the aura of the Transcendent Realm. So it was to avoid attracting the attention of the Immortal Palace Realm?
Although Qin Shi had not truly interacted with the Immortal Palace Realm forces before, the evil spirit had said that there were many hidden Immortal Palace Realm forces in this world, and many of them were extremely powerful. In the 7,000 Sea Palaces, there was one Immortal Palace Realm force. Although the Nightmare Group was powerful, it had not reached the point where it could do whatever it wanted in the world. If it really caused trouble in the sea region, it would inevitably alert the Immortal Palace Realm here.
"Hehe, otherwise, little fellow, do you really think that we are only at the Transcendent Realm?
Let me put it this way. Within the Transcendent Realm, within one and a half million meters of one's personal world, there is no way that you can defeat us, "the Ninth Palace Master said arrogantly.
Immediately, the Ninth Palace Master's personal world became extremely dense, and the spiritual power within it was actually about two times that of an ordinary personal world.
Qin Shi frowned slightly as he felt the powerful personal world. "He actually compressed and overlapped his personal world?"
Qin Shi took a deep breath, and his little face turned serious.
Ming Xuan alone had already made Qin Shi feel like he was facing a great enemy. Now, there were seven more existences that were no weaker than Ming Xuan.
At this time, the seven Palace Masters also looked at Qin Shi curiously. The seven Palace Masters could all see that Qin Shi was acting strangely. The Sixth Palace Master smiled faintly and said, "This little fellow is interesting. The Heaven Devouring Devil Venerable's demonic blood has erupted three times, and yet he still has some semblance of consciousness."
"However, this little fellow cannot be left alive. He is too great of a threat. Although Fufeng has blocked our way into the 7,000 Sea Palaces, the people from Sky Mist have also been delayed by us. The Immortal Palace Realm has instructed that this little fellow must be buried here. This little fellow may very well become the last problem for Xue Gu," the Eighth Palace Master said.
"Then let's do it."
The Seventh Palace Master smiled emotionlessly. It was as though Qin Shi's life was no different from an ant's on the ground in their eyes.
"It really doesn't feel good to be looked down upon like this."
Qin Shi looked at the seven Palace Masters, who were discussing his life. Blood Qi surged in Qin Shi's eyes, and he was like a hibernating hibernating insect. As the corners of his mouth twitched, he gradually began to awaken.
Eight Transcending Realm cultivators. This was an unprecedented challenge for Qin Shi. Before his fight with Feng Kuang, Qin Shi had not even touched one Transcending Realm cultivator, let alone eight. Transcending Realm cultivators had always been an insurmountable hurdle for Qin Shi. Now, there were eight of them. If Qin Shi said that he did not feel pressured, it would be a lie.
However, Qin Shi did not panic. His current situation was a little strange. He could not be sure, and he did not know if he truly possessed the Transcending Realm. However, he was sure that he definitely had the right to clash with a Transcending Realm cultivator.
"Since you all want to kill me, I want to kill you all as well. There is no need for us to waste our breath here. Let's do it, shall we?"
Blood Qi surged out of Qin Shi's body like a surging scarlet tsunami, surrounding Qin Shi in all directions.
At this moment, Qin Shi's surroundings were covered in a scarlet light. His figure looked very magnificent, giving off the impression that he was a blood god of the world.
As Qin Shi's Blood Qi surged, Ming Xuan and the seven Palace Masters gradually turned grave. How could anyone who could sit in their positions be mediocre?
Naturally, they knew that underestimating their enemy would bring cruel consequences. Furthermore, Qin Shi's body made all of them feel a lot of pressure.
"This brat's current state is rather terrifying."
"Indeed. He is clearly only at the Transcending Realm, but he gives off an aura that even a Transcending Realm cultivator cannot look down on. There seems to be a very strong but indescribable power in that Blood Qi of human and demon. Everyone, be careful. Let's work together and eliminate this brat," the Sixth Palace Master said indifferently.
Aside from Ming Xuan, he was the only one present who had truly broken through to the Transcending Realm. His status was also the highest.
"Attack!"
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Immediately, eight afterimages, including Ming Xuan, shot out at Qin Shi like lightning.
The hands of the Twelve Palace Masters spun, and a huge demonic claw spat out mist. It was as if it could devour mountains and rivers, as if it could pull down the sky. The claw turned into a sharp spear that smashed down at Qin Shi.
On the other side, the tenth and ninth hall masters appeared behind Qin Shi in a phantom like fashion. The seals on their hands were filled with ancient lines, causing this stretch of the world to appear absurd. At this moment, the tenth hall master placed his hands together. It was as if there was a tsunami whirlpool. Within the whirlpool was a huge black dragon that was filled with evil. The huge dragon's body was burning with black flames as it ferociously pounced towards Qin Shi.
In an instant, Qin Shi was surrounded by several huge forces.
Every force made Qin Shi smell the scent of death. The attacks of the eight Palace Masters were really terrifying.
Qin Shi did not dare to be careless. His figure flashed a few times, and the blood qi around him suddenly swelled. Very quickly, it turned into a powerful force that gathered into a fist. He punched the huge dragon. Then, the blood wings on Qin Shi's back shook violently, causing a shocking rain of blood to fall and shatter the cold spear. Qin Shi punched out continuously, and every time he punched, it would collide with the power of one of the Palace Masters.
Boom!
The forty-nine palaces, in the collision that shook the heavens and earth, instantly fell into a state of destruction.
Countless experts of the forty-nine palaces were dumbfounded. They looked at the sky, where sparks flew, and the endless rain of blood fell. They were all dumbfounded and shocked. A battle of this level had far surpassed their understanding. In their eyes, this was simply destructive. Was this really a battle between humans?
This was completely a battle between gods.
