A muffled sound echoed, and Guan Yue felt a surge of immense pain, as if his vast Palace Sea was shattering.
Another muffled sound followed, and Guan Yue sensed his meridians beginning to rupture one after another, the pain spreading throughout his body, surging upward from his Dantian.
When the next muffled sound came, Guan Yue felt pain everywhere within him; even his blood vessels, Blood Sea, Spirit Sea, and Sea of Awareness began to swell and burst.
Under high pressure, the powerful Origin Energy and energy within Guan Yue's body surged violently. Wherever there was an obstruction, they forcefully broke through, unstoppable and unyielding.
At this moment, Guan Yue was unaware that two great shadows had made their move; this was their first strike. They instinctively carried Guan Yue toward a crowded area. Due to their incredible speed, the elders of the two major sects filled with abundant energy and Origin Energy became their primary targets. Once selected by them, each elder became a source of Origin Energy and energy for Guan Yue.
The elders clearly felt their Origin Energy rapidly depleting. Eventually, they even sensed the loss of their very essence, leading them to emit terrifying howls.
One, two, three, four—there were a total of twelve elders howling and twisting in agony. However, under the infinite pressure of the Infinite Smiling Face of the Boundless Deity, they were firmly pinned in place and unable to escape. They began to convulse and deform until signs of extinguished vitality appeared.
The energy, Origin Energy, and essence within their bodies surged toward Guan Yue. It impacted hundreds of Acupoints, thousands of meridians, tens of thousands of blood vessels, and billions of cells within Guan Yue's body.
Guan Yue endured extreme suffering.
Only by passing this trial could he truly reach the peak in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain! In the Dragon Python Celestial Domain, he needed a complete rebirth—a cleansing of heart and mind—a process of becoming anew. Since he now possessed this opportunity, the two great Divine Senses seized it. As for Guan Yue, he had to endure; if he could not withstand it, he would be reduced to ashes.
Under the overwhelming and vast pressure, Guan Yue's body had completely ulcerated, and her internal organs had lost all functionality. The various organs within her no longer held their form. Even her blood began to flow chaotically within her.
Guan Yue's body lost its support and fell limply to the ground, gradually disappearing.

Gao Yuxin and Lat's Hand were in the same suite, but they did not share a room. It would take two years to reach the Dopolaran Continent, so they had time to cultivate.
After arriving in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain, both Gao Yuxin and Lat's Hand felt an extraordinary sense of comfort. After more than three months of traveling at sea, they felt even more the differences between the Dragon Python Celestial Domain and the Yongning Continent.
In the Dragon Python Celestial Domain, they experienced a sense of freedom akin to soaring high in the sky. The pressure in this entire space was much weaker than that of the Yongning Continent. Here, they could exert one hundred twenty percent of their Combat Power from the Yongning Continent!
Lat's Hand secretly rejoiced, Jin Xi, you wild woman, just wait until you see my Combat Power! Now it's my turn to beat you up, right? Hehe.
Gao Yuxin was focused on understanding the operational characteristics of the sky under the Dragon Python Celestial Domain, why it differed from the Yongning Continent, and what Guan Yue should pay attention to in her cultivation under these conditions to grow faster. She knew that only when Guan Yue truly grew stronger would they have real security.
The two rarely communicated; aside from Lat's Hand occasionally teasing Gao Yuxin, they would share insights on cultivation. However, Lat's Hand's cultivation level was much higher than Gao Yuxin's, and Gao Yuxin showed no interest in Lat's Hand's guidance. Gradually, Lat's Hand lost interest in mentoring Gao Yuxin.
As they ventured deeper into the ocean, the winds and waves grew stronger. Amidst towering waves reaching dozens of meters high, passengers on board began to vomit; some even lay down flat, unable to keep anything down. They appeared listless and desolate.
Even some Minor Ancestor Realm Disciples started to feel restless. Their cultivation levels struggled to withstand such violent turbulence. Only a few Great Dao Realm Disciples remained calm and composed.
Gao Yuxin and Lat's Hand were in the best condition on the ship; they exhibited strong resilience against the storm. Regardless of how fierce the wind blew or how high the waves rose, they moved about as if strolling leisurely in a garden.
Their performance garnered admiration from everyone on board. They were able to assist the crew with difficult tasks and rallied other Great Dao Realm Disciples to help out as well, working together to weather the storm.
On the ship, there was a Disciple from the Mysterious Heaven Realm who was the most indifferent. Since he could fly away if the ship capsized, he was unconcerned about the voyage and only focused on his own enjoyment. He was also a struggling individual, considered a Loose Practitioner without a sect in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain. Thus, he could only travel by ship. Those who could rely on major sects like the Mysterious Heaven Realm would travel by Battleship or ride divine beasts. They would not suffer the hardships of traveling by ship.
Lat's Hand had a strong aversion to this Disciple from the Mysterious Heaven Realm. The entire effort to assist the crew was initiated by Lat's Hand, who was also the most proactive. His profound knowledge of mechanisms impressed even the captain, making him a respected figure among the crew.
With his enthusiastic assistance, the Giant Ship sailed smoothly and swiftly through the waves.
This speed was unprecedented for the captain and marked a miracle in his maritime history. As the Giant Ship traveled at a steady high speed, everyone on board began to admire Lat's Hand and Gao Yuxin.
Lat's Hand and Gao Yuxin were also very enthusiastic, each taking charge of the captain's cabin to direct the Giant Ship forward.
"Let the fierce winds carry me forth! Let the towering waves protect my journey!" Lat's Hand's bold declarations ignited passion among the crew, motivating every member to work hard as they aimed to create a miracle!
The passengers on board gradually recovered as well. Now that the Giant Ship could sail steadily at high speed, everyone began to return to their normal selves. They resumed their joyful travel life.
Everyone referred to Lat's Hand and Gao Yuxin as their saviors.
However, that Disciple from the Mysterious Heaven Realm sneered, "Nonsense! Even without them, this Giant Ship would still be able to sail smoothly; it's just that the wind direction has changed. It has nothing to do with them—how can they be called saviors?"
A crew member retorted, "We are still in a stormy area; without their guidance, we would still be experiencing rough sailing. This has been true in the past, where there have been fatalities each time. Thanks to their guidance this time, we are able to sail so smoothly for the first time; calling them saviors is not an exaggeration."
The Disciple laughed maniacally, "Those who are destined to die at sea are simply seeking death on this journey. If such people are saved, it would be a waste of resources! Why should we help ants? Survival of the fittest has always been true."
The words of this Disciple from the Mysterious Heaven Realm sent chills through everyone on board. They held even greater admiration for Lat's Hand and Gao Yuxin, eagerly offering their best items as gratitude. The two did not refuse any offerings; they accepted everything given to them, which only made this Disciple even more envious.
Seeing that the Giant Ship was moving at an extraordinary speed and significantly shortening their journey, possibly reaching their destination soon, this Xuantian Realm Cultivator finally revealed his true colors and began robbing on board.
He went from room to room committing robbery, and when he saw a woman of outstanding appearance, he would shamelessly assault her. If there was any resistance, he would resort to violence.
Passengers rushed to report to the captain. Seeing that Lat's Hand and Gao Yuxin were not ordinary people, the captain asked, "You two Experts, do you have a way to subdue this person?"
Lat's Hand replied, "There's no need to be polite with him; just drive him away."
The captain was puzzled and said, "He is the only Xuantian Realm Cultivator on the ship; no one can match him."
Lat's Hand shouted, "In that case, I will go chase him away." Lat's Hand had been holding back his energy and was eager to find an opponent to test himself. Now that he had a Mysterious Heaven Realm Disciple as an opponent, he was excited. Without waiting for the captain to say anything further, he leaped out.
Gao Yuxin feared that he might not be a match for the Xuantian Realm Cultivator, so she followed him out. The captain naturally brought the ship's guards along as well. They followed the path through the passenger cabins and soon saw Lat's Hand already engaged in battle with the Xuantian Realm Cultivator.
From a distance, they heard the Disciple shout loudly, "I, Flying Fish, have practiced for many years, endured countless hardships, and only recently broke through to the Mysterious Heaven Realm. I planned to seek opportunities in the Dopolaran Continent. Today, I encountered you, a madman who dares to ruin my plans. It seems you are tired of living; since that's the case, I shall grant you your wish."
Lat's Hand immediately responded, "You are nothing but a sea thief! You are scum! Relying on your little skills without striving for improvement, you have turned to robbery. Of course I must intervene. I cannot allow you to act recklessly or bully others on this ship."
Flying Fish retorted, "Fool, cease your nonsense. Do these ants dare to call themselves humans? They exist for us to enjoy. You are also an ant; that is why you want to wallow with them. If you dare to be so arrogant, I'll deal with you first and show them what it means that a Xuantian Realm Cultivator is someone they— including you—cannot provoke."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and Lat's Hand immediately felt a jolt in his body; his internal organs were indeed harmed. Although it wasn't severe, Flying Fish truly had energy attack methods.
Lat's Hand quickly became cautious and attempted to evade while engaging in direct combat with Flying Fish. However, Flying Fish disregarded everything and rampaged on the ship. In no time at all, he had completely destroyed the entire third-level passenger cabin.
Seeing this, the captain could no longer tolerate it and immediately commanded his subordinates to assist Lat's Hand in battling Flying Fish. Although these maritime guards were not highly skilled, they were experienced enough to fully utilize various advantageous conditions on the ship to continuously attack Flying Fish.
