On this day, a grand army arrived at the center of the Endless Divine Realm.
A vast lake appeared before Wei Chen and the others.
The Ying Qin Supreme Deity stood beside Wei Chen and introduced, "Master, this lake is called the Divine Lake. It holds a very special position within the Endless Divine Realm. It is located at the very center of the Endless Divine Realm and does not belong to any Divine Realm's sphere of influence. The surrounding Divine Realms regard it with great reverence. This Divine Lake also serves as a boundary between several nearby Divine Realms. Even wars between Divine Realms do not affect this Divine Lake."
Wei Chen nodded lightly, feeling immense pressure and lacking the mood to smile. Only someone like the Ying Qin Supreme Deity, who was carefree, could manage to smile in such a situation. After all, he was merely following Wei Chen's orders; no matter what happened in the Endless Divine Realm, he wouldn't bear any blame.
This was the advantage of being a subordinate—no responsibility, just following the leader.
"Uncle, what do we need to do to extract Earth Essence?" Wei Chen asked the three members of the Lost City faction.
Uncle smiled and replied, "First, we need to drain all the water here, then dig down vigorously until we reach about thirty miles deep. When we can see the Magma, we'll be nearly done."
Wei Chen immediately gave the order for everyone to use their abilities. The water in the Divine Lake was quickly drained, causing heavy rain to pour down in the surrounding Divine Realms.
The entire Divine Lake transformed into a desolate land under the efforts of countless powerful beings.
Seeing the disappearance of the Divine Lake, those from the Endless Divine Realm felt quite disheartened. After all, it was their Divine Lake that had vanished; how could they feel good about it? Especially since they were about to excavate what remained of it, turning the entire Divine Lake into history.
At the bottom of the Divine Lake, water continued to flow from its source. The Great Xia Divine King used a secret technique to completely suppress this source so that no more water would flow out.
"Great Xia Divine King, when we continue digging deeper later, will water emerge again?" Wei Chen asked calmly while looking at him.
The Great Xia Divine King smiled and said, "No, it won't. I have refined the source; my fire element power has completely refined the heart of water deep within."
"That's good."
Wei Chen waved his hand again, and everyone resumed their work, digging down into the depths beneath the Divine Lake.
The power of the Twelfth Level Deity was fully revealed at that moment, as mounds of earth flew out and landed in the distance.
Several hours later, around the Divine Lake, a circular mountain range had formed. At that moment, the mountain had no name, but in the near future, to commemorate this action, it would become known as Arc Mountain, the sacred mountain of the Endless Divine Realm. Although the Endless Divine Realm had lost the Divine Lake, it had gained a mountain that no one had anticipated.
Uncle and his companions needed to dig thirty miles deep to extract Earth Essence; however, when they reached a depth of twenty miles, everyone realized that the soil there was extremely hard, making it difficult to excavate quickly with ordinary methods.
"What’s going on?" Wei Chen asked as he and his team descended to the dark ground below. Despite the lack of light, their powerful divine senses allowed them to perceive everything without any constraints.
Wei Chen crouched down and gathered immense strength in his arm before striking the ground with a powerful punch.
That punch was strong enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, yet all it did was leave an imprint on the surface.
"Is it really this hard?" Wei Chen furrowed his brow, while the others were equally puzzled. How could there be such hard soil?
Everyone took turns trying to dig, but they all encountered the same issue: the soil at that depth was terrifyingly hard, akin to the Divine Iron that Wei Chen had purchased from the Golden Clan Secret Realm.
Wei Chen was baffled, but Killing God Senior exclaimed with delight, "Wei Chenzi, don’t be discouraged! This is a good thing! The material here is no longer simple soil; it’s an extremely rare iron ore. Just think about it—if unrefined iron ore can possess this kind of hardness, once refined and forged into Warships or armor, it will be immensely beneficial for the Endless Divine Realm."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt it made sense. It was important to think positively about everything. Such hard iron ore was indeed a precious find; it only delayed their progress in extracting Earth Essence slightly. Once fully mined, the benefits would be enormous.
Gu Xitao took advantage of the power of Destruction of the World Thirteen Swords and acted as the vanguard. Soon after, all the ore was extracted and transported to a large space within Dinglong Mountain for use by the Golden Mechanism. After testing by the Golden Mechanism, it was determined that once purified, these ores would be harder than the meteorite iron Wei Chen had purchased at great expense from the Golden Clan Secret Realm.
Although they had been delayed for some time, the benefits gained by the Endless Divine Realm were more than enough to compensate for it.
Finally, once all the soil was excavated cleanly, a faint heat began to emanate from below—magma from beneath the earth.
Under Wei Chen's protection, Uncle, Second Uncle, and Great-Uncle Three sat cross-legged. They moved their hands in intricate gestures and unleashed streams of Divine Power as a Disc gradually took shape between them.
It was a Disc filled with countless strange symbols, emanating an air of mystery that made it hard to see clearly.
The three of them, Uncle and his companions, hummed as they unleashed Divine Power, causing the mist on the Disc to thicken even more.
"What are they doing?" Ying Qin Supreme Deity leaned closer to Wei Chen and whispered.
Wei Chen replied, "Isn't that obvious? They're performing a secret technique. Do you expect them to explain the principles behind it? If you had that kind of ability, would you share it with everyone?"
Ying Qin Supreme Deity awkwardly smiled and stopped asking questions. Everyone had their own cards to play or unique traits. Uncle and his companions could draw Earth Essence, a skill that no one else present possessed. It was clear they wouldn’t foolishly reveal their secret techniques; anyone in their position would be just as guarded.
Hours passed, and the Disc between Uncle and his companions began to rotate slowly.
Meanwhile, the three of them sitting on the ground gradually floated into the air, spinning in the opposite direction of the Disc.
Everyone watched them intently, gradually sensing a unique energy rising from deep within the earth and flowing into the Disc.
This energy was gentle and welcoming, like a spring breeze, bringing no pressure to those present.
"Earth Essence... it really is Earth Essence! I can feel the power of the earth!" Ying Qin Supreme Deity exclaimed softly.
The crowd rolled their eyes; seriously? Was he the only one who felt it? Did he think they couldn’t sense it?
In moments like this, it was best to remain silent; whoever spoke was just making themselves look foolish and impatient.
The Earth Essence slowly gathered into the Disc at a painfully slow pace, causing everyone to frown. At this rate, how long would it take to absorb enough Earth Essence? By the time they gathered enough, the passage to Bloodshed Shop would likely be completely opened. If that happened, this operation would be a total failure with no results at all.
Everyone was anxious, but they all understood that there was nothing they could do at this moment. No matter how slowly Uncle and his companions worked, they could only wait. Any questions would only disturb them unnecessarily.
Could a few questions really make them speed up?
Impossible.
"Wei Chenzi, what do you think? This pace is unacceptable," Killing God Senior quietly transmitted to Wei Chen.
Wei Chen replied leisurely, "There's no need to rush. Since Uncle and the others have found this method feasible, it proves they can achieve it before the passage is opened. If they couldn't, they wouldn't dare make such promises."
Sure enough, a few hours later, everyone noticed that the rotation of the Disc was gradually accelerating.
Although the increase was not obvious, it was steadily picking up speed with each passing moment.
The aura of Earth Essence on the Disc grew denser, evoking a feeling in everyone reminiscent of being cradled in their mother's embrace during childhood.
That sensation was gentle and warm; the earth, the foundation of the world, was everyone's "mother."
As everyone assisted Uncle in protecting the law, during the seventh round, Wei Chen suddenly sensed that a mountain range hundreds of thousands of miles away had completely collapsed.
"Did you feel that?" Wei Chen connected everyone's minds and asked through his consciousness.
"A mountain range has collapsed."
"Yes, that's right. The negative effects of extracting Earth Essence are starting to manifest."
"Another mountain range has fallen!"
They felt more and more mountains collapsing, and throughout the Endless Divine Realm, tremors were spreading due to the landslides.
Although it wouldn't lead to death, the dangers it brought were powerful enough.
Wei Chen recalled the warning from the Fire God: if the Earth Essence wasn't replenished within a hundred years, the Endless Divine Realm would be plagued by massive earthquakes, leading to devastation and suffering for all living beings.
He finally began to take this issue seriously.
"After we crush the Bloodshed Shop, we need to find suitable Earth Essence to replenish it. Otherwise, it would be a grave sin!"
A sense of guilt stirred within Wei Chen, a guilt towards the entire Endless Divine Realm.
Within the Endless Divine Realm, the populace was engulfed in extreme panic. At the top of the sky, a black hole grew larger and larger, signaling that the Army of the Bloodshed Shop was about to descend. The collapse of mountains had nearly turned the Endless Divine Realm into flat land, creating a vast plain. Aside from a few mountain ranges controlled by formations that remained intact, almost all other mountains had completely collapsed.
Ordinary people had no idea what was happening; they thought the Endless Divine Realm was on the brink of destruction and fled in terror.
After more than ten hours, fewer than ten peaks still stood in the entire Endless Divine Realm.
The rest had transformed into an incredibly flat plain.
Losing the support of Earth Essence and becoming a plain was just the first step.
Wei Chen understood that if suitable Earth Essence couldn't be found in a hundred years, the entire Endless Divine Realm would collapse—not just the mountains. At that time, the Divine Power within the Endless Divine Realm would become alarmingly thin. The disappearance of Earth Essence would bring unimaginable disasters to this world.
Just as the entire Endless Divine Realm fell into turmoil, Uncle and his companions suddenly opened their eyes. They uttered syllables that Wei Chen and others couldn't comprehend, their bodies floating upwards. The Disc transformed into a green Sphere, over ten miles in diameter, lifted by Uncle and his companions as they soared toward the enormous black hole at the top of the sky.
