At this moment, a small glow suddenly appeared at the top of the tower in the center of the island.
Immediately after, this glow spread downward, lighting the entire tower like a giant candle.
Under the illumination of this glow, a figure stepped out from the tip of the tower and slowly walked toward the ocean.
Nalan Zhongqin slightly pursed her lips, staring intently at the figure in the sky.
Xue An’s walking speed seemed slow, but it was actually incredibly fast.
In just the blink of an eye, he had reached the sky above the ocean, then stopped and stood silently.
The fierce wind howled, the ocean roiled, a crimson moon hung above his head.
All of this formed a scene that was extremely strange yet extraordinarily harmonious.
The entire area was dead silent, everyone held their breath and watched quietly.
Finally.
Xue An slowly lifted his head, a complex light flashed in his eyes, containing joy and reminiscence.
But then, he sighed softly.
"So that’s how it is!"
What does that mean?
What does he mean by so that’s how it is?
These questions had just surfaced in Nalan Zhongqin’s mind when the following scene left her utterly stunned.
Not only her, but everyone was dumbfounded.
Because at that moment, they saw Xue An standing in mid-air slowly raise his hand, form a bizarre Seal Decision, and utter a word softly: "Halt!"
Ka!
With his command, the previously biting sea wind that was omnipresent suddenly halted.
Everything was so abrupt, the wind that had just been stinging their faces stopped in an instant.
The world suddenly became so silent that only the sound of the ocean’s movement could be heard.
With just one command, the sea wind stopped!
This bizarre scene made everyone’s eyes widen to their limits.
But this was merely the beginning.
They saw Xue An’s hand press down abruptly, a glint of light in his eyes as he softly commanded, "Split!"
Bang!
Everyone felt as if the world trembled with Xue An’s shout.
Then they saw the once boiling sea surface suddenly calm down, as if an invisible yet omnipresent mighty force was applied everywhere in the ocean.
The whole sea surface was forcefully flattened.
In the blink of an eye, the entire ocean became as smooth as a mirror, without a single wrinkle visible.
But this strange phenomenon flashed and disappeared.
Then they saw a giant fissure appear in the middle of this jelly-like ocean.
The fissure extended and expanded at a visible speed, and a few breaths later, a huge chasm appeared, splitting the sea into two halves.
But that was still not enough, the divided sea swiftly retreated to both sides, exposing the seabed below.
And on the other end of the chasm, it connected to the island.
Everyone stared in a daze.
No one dared to speak.
Even their breathing seemed to pause at this moment.
Just how strong is this young man?
"Unbelievable, these patterns obviously belong to some indescribable runes, but how were they able to remain so clear after such a long time?" Nalan Zhongqin murmured softly.
"It’s simple, time lost its effect on these runes, this Divine Temple... exists outside the river of time!" Xue An replied without turning his head, his tone carrying a hint of admiration.
Nalan Zhongqin’s eyes showed an indescribable expression, clearly, all this had exceeded her understanding.
At that moment, Xue An turned his head to look at the followers, then smiled faintly, "Can you keep up?"
Nobody spoke, but everyone nodded solemnly.
"Very well, then follow me!"
Saying that, Xue An led the way, rushing towards the temple ahead.
Nalan Zhongqin gritted her teeth and followed closely behind.
In contrast, Yan Zhong showed a hesitant expression.
"Just rushing in like that? This is an ancient ruin! Who knows what defense mechanisms are inside!"
However, even as he said that, seeing Xue An’s silhouette flying towards the temple, he stomped his foot in frustration.
"Damn it, I must be crazy, approaching a ruin without any reconnaissance!"
Talking to himself begrudgingly, he followed on.
Unexpectedly, at least when approaching the ruins, they encountered no danger.
After passing the massive columns outside, they faced a huge collapsed stone gate.
Xue An moved without any pause, a glint of light in his eyes, and the obstructing ruins crumbled into dust.
Then the group dashed directly into the ruins.
As they stepped inside, everyone felt the scene before them transform dramatically, and they stood frozen in place, various complex expressions appearing on their faces.
It was clear that each person saw a completely different scene.
