The Sea God gazed deeply at Wei Chen, his ethereal eyes revealing sincerity and earnestness.
"My child, if you can help me break the formation, not only will I give you the Divine Heart, but I can also take you to my Ancestral Realm, where you can become the Human Race Leader of that world and enjoy countless years. My Ancestral Realm is far more powerful than your Spatial Dimension System's Ancient World."
Wei Chen could tell that the words of the Sea God before him were genuine.
Whether the truth or a lie could be discerned from a person's eyes.
The Sea God appeared weak, severely affected by the layered formation, with little combat power left and unable to move freely; he was merely waiting for death.
If this trend continued, in a few hundred years, as the formation doubled in strength, the Sea God would be unable to withstand it—death would be inevitable.
The deity who had imprisoned the Sea God possessed an extraordinary mastery of formations. The Sea God had no expertise in formations and could only wait for his demise.
Fortunately, Wei Chen had arrived just in time. The Sea God saw hope and promised Wei Chen various benefits.
Despite all these advantages, Wei Chen remained unmoved. He looked at the Sea God and calmly said, "Senior Sea God, I have some questions that I hope you can answer."
"Go ahead," the Sea God nodded.
Wei Chen asked, "Regarding the Heart of the God you mentioned, what can I do with it?"
"If you refine and absorb the Heart of the God, you will gain Divine Power and become a Boundary God."
"Boundary God? Isn't it required to control a realm?"
"That's correct. If you refine my Heart of the God, you will become the Boundary God of this world."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen was astonished. Could it be that there was no Boundary God in the Demon Realm?
Wei Chen asked, "Senior Sea God, as far as I know, if a Boundary God exists in a world, then no new Boundary God can emerge. Are you saying that there is no Boundary God in the Demon Realm?"
"Yes, the Boundary God from your world has long been eliminated," the Sea God replied calmly.
Wei Chen exclaimed in shock, "Isn't a Boundary God invincible within their own Spatial Plane?"
The Sea God snorted coldly and said, "Invincible is merely relative. Just like me, if I could return to my world and reconstitute my Divine Power, ordinary Secondary Gods or even Third-Level Deities would not be able to kill me. But if a Fourth-Level Deity appeared, I would die."
"The Boundary God of your world was merely the lowest-level Boundary God. Back when I and another deity descended upon this world, that blind Boundary God attempted to obstruct us, but the Secondary God who imprisoned me killed him with a single strike."
Hearing the Sea God's words made Wei Chen's heart race. At that time, their power must have been incredibly formidable!
"Senior Sea God, what is needed to create humanity?" Wei Chen asked.
The Sea God replied, "Divine Realm. By expending one's own blood essence, one can create humanity. Ordinary Boundary Gods are not qualified to create humans."
"Does expending blood essence to create humanity harm you?"
"Of course it does; that's natural. In fact, many gods leave behind a few sparks of humanity after creating them because they need to return to their Ancestral Realm to recuperate for tens of thousands of years. That damned Fellow imprisoned me here without Divine Power for recovery while being compressed by layers of formations..."
The Sea God looked deeply at Wei Chen and sighed, "Child, I am about to die. If you can save me, you will be my great benefactor. I promise I will fulfill any conditions I made with you; I swear it on my divine status."
"Senior, I believe you completely. Please wait a moment; I will go up to the surface of the sea and reassure my friends so they won't worry. Then I'll come back down quickly to help you break the formation. Two years should be enough," Wei Chen said respectfully as he bowed to the Sea God.
The Sea God nodded and said, "You may go."
Wei Chen flew out of the protective layer and quickly ascended to the surface of the sea.
The Sea Emperor Nanfeng, along with the Demon Lotus Emperor, Lynn Luyao, and others were present.
Seeing Wei Chen appear unharmed brought smiles to their faces as they thought to themselves that it was a relief; the battle between the Black Magic Clan and the Sea Tribe would not escalate.
"Wei Chen, how is the situation?" Sea Emperor Nanfeng asked anxiously.
"It's fine. I'm here to let you know that I will be staying at the Sea God Palace for the next two years. You all should head back, and I'll come find you in two years," Wei Chen replied calmly.
Nan Feng hurriedly asked, "Two years? What will you be doing at the Sea God Palace? Did you speak with the Sea God?"
"Something like that. I'll explain more when I come out."
Wei Chen then gave a few more instructions to the Demon Lotus Emperor and Lynn Luyao before preparing to return to the Sea God Palace.
Just as he was about to leave, he noticed five warships flying in from a distance, moving at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, they were within a mile, clearly visible.
Black Magic Clan's warships?
In another blink, the warships had reached the sky above where Wei Chen and the others were located. Dark Mage, accompanied by several high-ranking members of the Black Magic Clan, flew out from the warship.
"Child, come back with your grandfather!"
The Dark Mage saw Wei Chen and swiftly appeared in front of him, wrapping him in a powerful surge of magic that instantly transported them back to the Black Magic Clan's Cloudpiercer Warship.
"Grandfather, why are you here?" Wei Chen, completely restrained by the Black Magic Clan, could only smile apologetically.
"If I hadn't come, you would have gone to the Sea God Palace to meet your doom! You really don't know your limits. It's already a blessing that you managed to defeat the Sea Emperor Nanfeng and kill Philippe King. The Sea God Palace is a perilous place; you cannot go there. We are leaving now," the Dark Mage said firmly, using his magic to bind Wei Chen before flying out of the Warship, directing his gaze at the Sea Emperor Nanfeng.
"We came to the Endless Sea solely to take Wei Chen away and meant no offense. Farewell," the Dark Mage said, cupping his fist in a gesture of respect as he ordered the Warship to prepare for departure.
However, the Sea Emperor Nanfeng instantly appeared in front of the Warship with a slight smile and said, "I have long heard that the Dark Demon Emperor is unmatched in strength. Taking this opportunity, I, Nan Feng, hope for your guidance."
The Sea Emperor positioned himself as a junior, not challenging the Dark Mage from his status as Sea Emperor.
Such a challenge was one that the Dark Mage could not refuse.
The Dark Mage flew out of the Warship, looking at the Sea Emperor Nanfeng with an expressionless face. "Sea Emperor, is this really necessary?"
"Senior, I sincerely wish to learn," the Sea Emperor replied calmly.
Hearing this, the Dark Mage felt helpless; being addressed as 'junior' was quite irritating to him.
There was no choice left; they had to fight.
The Black Demon Clan stated, "Then let’s keep it brief."
The Sea Emperor Nanfeng nodded, his body flickering and vanishing several miles away.
The Dark Mage followed closely, distancing himself from the Warship.
In battles between top-tier powerhouses, even the slightest clash could unleash a fierce Shockwave. If they were too close, both the Warship and its crew would be overwhelmed by the impact.
The high-ranking members of the Black Magic Clan and the Sea Tribe watched from afar as the Dark Mage and Sea Emperor Nanfeng prepared to face off. They had fantasized about this confrontation for a long time, but now that it was about to happen, an unreal feeling settled in their hearts.
They had not anticipated the rapid arrival of the Black Magic Clan's forces, nor had they expected the Sea Emperor Nanfeng's challenge to come so suddenly.
Who would have thought that as soon as the Dark Mage appeared, the Sea Emperor would seek a challenge?
"What does the Sea Emperor think? If he wins, that's great, but if he loses, wouldn't that be..."
"Not a problem at all. The Dark Mage is renowned as the strongest in the Demon Realm. Even if he loses, it won't matter. If he wins, he can claim the title of the strongest in the Demon Realm, which would be extremely beneficial for our South Sea Sea Clan."
"Indeed, in this battle, the Sea Emperor actually has much to gain. Regardless of winning or losing, he won't suffer any losses."
"Do you think the Sea Emperor can win?"
"The odds are slim. After all, this is in the Endless Sea where the Sea Emperor can fully utilize his water powers. If it were on land, he would likely not stand a chance against the Dark Mage. But here in the Endless Sea, his chances are significantly better."
The high-ranking members of the Sea Tribe debated among themselves, eagerly hoping that Sea Emperor Nanfeng could create a miracle and defeat the Dark Mage to become the strongest in the Demon Realm.
Meanwhile, on the side of the Black Magic Clan, their high-ranking officials watched with cold indifference, showing no signs of concern.
The status of the first person in the Dark Magic Domain was hard-earned through countless battles, and to them, the challenge from Sea Emperor Nanfeng was almost an act of self-humiliation.
Wei Chen was still under the control of the Dark Mage's magic, without even a moment to explain himself before being ensnared. It was utterly helpless. Even as the Dark Mage prepared to face Sea Emperor Nanfeng, the magical restraints binding him did not dissipate.
Fortunately, Wei Chen was on the deck of the Warship, able to witness the confrontation between the Dark Mage and Sea Emperor Nanfeng. Missing this monumental battle would have been a great loss.
The Dark Mage and Sea Emperor Nanfeng stood a hundred meters apart in mid-air, both weaponless. At their level, ordinary weapons became irrelevant. Unless one possessed something like the Reprint artifact in Wei Chen's hands—an ancient relic from the Ancient World—both the Dark Mage and Sea Emperor Nanfeng could wield immense power capable of instantly defeating their opponent.
In a fair duel, Sea Emperor Nanfeng's challenge naturally excluded weapons.
What they were measuring was true combat strength.
Under the watchful eyes of the Dark Mage and the high-ranking members of the Sea Tribe, the battle finally commenced.
Endless waves surged forth from the sea, forming countless water pillars that shot toward the Dark Mage.
Each water pillar contained boundless power, embodying a full-force strike from a Martial Emperor-level warrior!
In a clash between true top-tier fighters, victory could be decided in a single blow without any unnecessary words.
Sea Emperor Nanfeng had already poured all his strength into this attack.
If the Dark Mage could withstand it, he would emerge victorious; if not, he would be defeated.
Countless water pillars swept through the void as if they could pierce reality itself, roaring as they surged toward the Dark Mage!
All around the Dark Mage, countless columns of water shot up into the air.
At that moment, the Dark Mage made no move. A calm smile adorned his face, and in an instant, Surging Dark Energy surged forth, transforming into arrows that shot toward the water columns.
The water columns clashed with the Dark Mage's magical arrows in the void!
In that instant, the ground changed color, and the air trembled!
A violent Shockwave spread out, sending several Warships flying several miles away!
At the center of the storm, the Dark Mage remained utterly composed, even smiling slightly. His overwhelming magical power unleashed a barrage of arrows that swept through the water columns unleashed by Sea Emperor Nanfeng, destroying them one by one.
In just a few blinks, the water columns dissipated. Sea Emperor Nanfeng ceased his attack and clasped his fists toward the Dark Mage with a wry smile, saying, "Senior, your magical power is astonishing. I concede."
In this simple contest, Sea Emperor Nanfeng deeply realized the gap between himself and the Dark Mage. The vast difference in strength was no joke. In terms of magical power, they were not even on the same level.
The number one in the Demon Realm truly deserved the title!
The Dark Mage nodded slightly and flew back to his Warship. Without further ado, he issued a direct order: "Let's go!"
"Grandfather, don't you want to hear a few words from me?"
