Chapter 654: Chapter 654
As one approaches the center, the gravity intensifies, and the Earth Intent grows stronger. However, to this day, no one has dared to truly venture into the core area.
Approach means death; only corpses can enter.
Xu Hei casually swept his Divine Sense and discovered many human cultivators underground nearby.
The cultivators here were all tall and strong, with earth-brown skin and bulging muscles, like small hills. They were all here to temper their physical bodies.
Among them, two were the strongest, having reached the Great Perfection of the Elemental Infant stage and touched a trace of the laws, with a vague rock mark appearing on their foreheads, symbolizing the deity of the Earth God.
They were already half a step into the Divine Transformation stage.
Ignoring the crowd, Xu Hei stepped forward, heading towards the core area.
As he passed the two strongest cultivators, with each step he took, the gravity multiplied, causing the earth to tremble violently.
Initially, Xu Hei used the Night Demon Wings to cover his physical body, but as he advanced, the ground shook uncontrollably, each step triggering an earthquake.
"Something just walked past?"
A burly man, half a step into the Divine Transformation stage, exclaimed.
"I can't see it. Could it be someone in the Divine Transformation stage?"
The old man of the same realm beside him also exclaimed.
In their understanding, the Divine Transformation cultivators of the Sea Star kept a respectful distance from the Earth God, with none believing in it. Only these ancient humans, with no other path, chose to believe in the Earth God.
In three hundred thousand years, they had never produced a Divine Transformation cultivator because any attempt to break through was thwarted by the Divine Transformation Ancestor of the Sea Star.
"No, ahead is the Earth God's divine domain. A Sea Star cultivator wouldn't dare offend the deity , unless..." The burly man's eyes grew serious.
He didn't finish his sentence.
He exchanged a glance with the robust old man, both understanding each other's thoughts.
"The Earth Prison Forbidden Zone!"
The two clapped their hands together, and the sand instantly coalesced into rock, forming a thick earth prison spanning miles, trapping everyone inside.
"From this day forth, no one is allowed to leave!" the burly man declared.
"Anyone who leaves will die!"
The robust old man slapped a cultivator attempting to escape, turning him into a pulp. Immediately, everyone retreated, not daring to take another step.
Though they were in seclusion, as the strongest in the Northern Continent, they naturally heard of external affairs.
The Frogman Ancestor had nearly turned the continent upside down, sweeping with his Divine Sense day and night, clearly searching for someone. Coupled with the convergence of the twin stars, the answer was obvious: it was a cultivator from the Divine Continent Star.
At this moment, where Xu Hei stood, the gravity had reached an extremely terrifying level.
His bones and body emitted creaking sounds under the unbearable weight, as if he were carrying a planet on his shoulders. Each step consumed immense True Essence.
This was the Earth God's divine domain, only accessible to those in the Divine Transformation stage.
Cracks began to appear on Xu Hei's skin, with traces of blood surfacing. Under the immense gravity, external defenses were ineffective, leaving him to rely solely on his physical body to withstand it.
"This is the limit for an ordinary Divine Transformation stage. I can still go further."
Xu Hei took a deep breath and continued to advance into the dim depths ahead.
As he took this step, it was as if he entered a whole new realm, with gravity surging. Xu Hei's skin completely cracked, blood flowing freely.
At this moment, Xu Hei finally sensed the power of the laws lingering in the earth. Find the newest release on noveⅼfire.net
It was the Earth Law!
The Earth Law, born from the earth element of the Five Elemental, symbolized weight and strength. Xu Hei was very familiar with it, as he possessed Earth Spiritual Roots.
At the Divine Transformation stage, the primordial spirit transcends the physical body, rendering spiritual roots useless, but Xu Hei's comprehension of it hadn't diminished.
Xu Hei released the Demon God Cauldron, immediately beginning to absorb the Earth Law lingering in the land.
His Dao of Heaven encompassed all things, capable of devouring any law.
Suddenly, the underground rock layers began to wriggle, as if coming to life, pressing towards Xu Hei. These rocks weren't ordinary stones; each had been compressed by gravity for countless years, with a density more astonishing than Supreme Spirit Stones, capable of easily crushing a Divine Transformation stage cultivator!
Xu Hei immediately transformed into a pitch-black dragon form, dragon scales appearing, simultaneously covered by a layer of rock defense. This was the divine ability of the Earth Flood Dragon Mo Cang.
Under the immense pressure, every inch of Xu Hei's skin endured the weight of ten thousand pounds. His bones creaked, cracking, and his skin oozed blood.
Devouring the laws would anger the deities, invoking divine punishment.
Xu Hei faced the same treatment as in the Sea of the Reaper.
However, unlike last time, Xu Hei didn't choose to hide inside the Demon God Cauldron; he chose to endure.
Though the pressure was immense, enough to crush an ordinary cultivator into a pulp instantly, it was also an opportunity to temper his physique.
"Earth God, if you have the guts, crush me to death! Come on!" Xu Hei roared.
As if hearing Xu Hei's taunt, the depths of the earth resounded with earthquake-like rumbles, countless rocks crashing down.
The Earth God's attack method was extremely simple: crushing, as if countless millstones from all directions were grinding towards Xu Hei.
Xu Hei spat blood, his dragon scales shattering one by one, his flesh a bloody mess. His once-massive body was compressed to half its size, his internal bones twisted and deformed.
"No, I can't hold on much longer!"
Xu Hei roared internally. After enduring for a stick of incense, he ultimately couldn't withstand it and hid inside the Demon God Cauldron.
With Xu Hei's disappearance, the rocks immediately pressed in, filling the space.
Only then did Xu Hei dare to take deep breaths, quickly consuming pills to heal.
Fortunately, he hadn't burned his primordial spirit; it was all physical injuries, which could heal quickly.
Yu Shiyu's primordial spirit light cluster was beside him. Though motionless, as the master of the world, Xu Hei could sense a slight change in emotion.
Xu Hei said with a dark expression.
In the far north, the sky formed a sea among the clouds.
The ocean floated in the sky, such a bizarre scene was commonplace in the far north, as the Divine Transformation Ancestor patrolled.
In the sea in the sky, there were two figures: Yuantai, the Frogman Ancestor, and Wang Zhen, the Sea Lion clan leader.
"He disappeared. We've searched everywhere except the Earth God's forbidden zone, with no trace." Wang Zhen said calmly.
The Earth God's forbidden zone was the deity's domain, and they dared not rashly investigate.
"Hmph! Hiding in the Earth God's forbidden zone, I anticipated that." Yuantai sneered.
"Destroying the Death God and severely weakening our side, but destroying the Earth God has no impact on us, even benefits! Besides, the Northern Continent has no reason to exist."
Yuantai's words made Wang Zhen squint his eyes, frowning, "So you deliberately drove him towards the Earth God's forbidden zone?"
This time, Yuantai didn't answer, merely closing his eyes.
