Chapter 539

Chapter 539 The Most Challenging Encounter Indeed, that was the situation.

Emrys did not die. Instead, he was deeply shaken by the scene unfolding before him.

When the seawater had engulfed Emrys’ head, he had already held his breath. However, he soon realized that the surrounding seawater was rapidly receding, creating an enclosed underwater world.

He understood that this was the result of the formation.

In front of Emrys, a peculiar cylindrical stone platform had emerged. On the platform, something was suspended, emitting a brilliant glow that illuminated the entire underwater world.

Emrys activated his True Sight, hoping to discern the object clearly, but he was almost blinded by its piercing radiance.

It must be a treasure! A treasure so mysterious that even True Sight cannot penetrate it! Emrys’ heart raced, and he cautiously approached the stone platform.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to move faster, but rather, the platform emitted a terrifying force that held him back.

Emrys channeled his vital energy, attempting to break through the resisting force.

However, his progress was slow.

Despite the short distance, it seemed to drain all the strength from Emrys’ body.

Sweat poured out like rain as he covered fifteen meters.

This was the most challenging encounter Emrys had faced since becoming a cultivator.

The more difficult it became, the more excited he felt deep within. It signified that the treasure ahead was undoubtedly extraordinary and would shock the world.

“Spiritual Control Divine Sword, shatter!” Emrys shouted, wielding his divine sword and slashing forth a brilliant ray, breaking through the force pushing against him.

Using that force, Emrys successfully reached a spot just one meter away from the stone platform.

The treasure was within his grasp!

However, Emrys’ previous strike had depleted all his strength, leaving him rooted to the spot, gasping heavily for breath.

Even though the distance was merely a meter, Emrys still couldn’t discern what the object was.

He didn’t dare to look for long because the radiance was simply too dazzling.

He was just one step away!

Emrys rested for a long time. Only when his body was completely steady did he take another step forward, cautiously moving ahead.

Boom!

Suddenly, a force surged out, a thousand times more terrifying than before, making Emrys’ final small step as difficult as reaching the heavens. He even staggered back four or five meters because of it.

This is too challenging! Emrys had never experienced such difficulty before.

He had no choice but to temporarily halt his progress, sitting down right where he was. Fortunately, the mysterious large formation had trapped some spirit energy, which was enough for Emrys to replenish his energy.

The underwater world was illuminated by the glow of the treasure. The space was so bright that it was impossible to distinguish between day and night, completely losing any sense of time.

the Emrys repeatedly condensed his life energy, attempting to strike the stone platform, only to face failure time and time again.

Emrys had lost count of how many times he had failed.

The treasure was within sight, yet it felt as distant as the horizon. However, the thought of giving up was unbearable for Emrys.

Once again, the rest period was over.

Emrys’ life energy was restored to its full state.

The surge of force remained terrifying.

“Nothing can obstruct me, the Empyrean Lord, from obtaining what I desire. Give it to me! Shatter!”

Emrys roared, exerting all his strength to take a half-step forward.

Suddenly, his clothes burst apart. The propelling force was like countless sharp blades materializing instantaneously, slashing his body and leaving it covered in wounds.

Countless wounds on his body bled profusely, eventually merging into a large, blood-red sword that cleaved his path forward.

Emrys’ face twisted, displaying a mixture of pain and madness, which was quickly replaced by a surge of euphoria.

This was because he had finally made contact with the object resting on the stone platform.

An intense wave of pain surged through Emrys’ body, as if his palm was being torn apart, causing his entire arm to go numb. However, Emrys could clearly sense something penetrating into his palm.
