Chapter 561: Wind-Fixing Pearl!

In the heavens and earth, a terrifying gale was approaching them, containing immense divine might, as if a deity had descended, chilling the soul.

Yang Tian and the other two changed color. The entire Taixu Boat was trembling, on the verge of exploding. It was an extremely powerful impact, as if a behemoth was drawing near.

"Could that monkey be chasing us?" Xiao Ji scratched his head and murmured, then his eyes gazed at the void outside, and his pupils froze instantly.

Not far away, a huge divine tide was surging forth violently, covering who knew how many miles. In the void, powerful artifacts vibrated across the eight wilds, shaking the entire world.

The crowd in the surroundings was fleeing at a frantic pace. Some had tried to rush into the divine tide, but their bodies were instantly blasted into a pulp.

"A divine tide!" Yang Tian's pupils contracted, and he couldn't help but exclaim. The divine tide swept across the distant heavens and earth, moving swiftly like a behemoth, heading to an unknown destination.

"Let's go..." Xiao Ji's heart trembled. If the Taixu Boat were caught in it, it would likely be torn to shreds in an instant.

"Alas, if only we could take it all away..." Fatty's eyes burned with greed. Every artifact here was extraordinary, radiating terrifying divine light, all ancient relics.

Most importantly, their artifact spirits had already condensed, having cultivated in the Dao God Mountain for who knew how long. Even compared to Yang Tian's River Map, the artifact spirit's cultivation was not very strong.

The Taixu Boat fled far away, traversing the void, distancing itself from the divine tide. The few of them sighed, knowing they lacked the strength to take it.

Just as they were traversing the void, the Taixu Boat suddenly halted, merging with the surrounding void. Xiao Ji looked at Fatty with a wary gaze.

Yang Tian and the others frowned, sensing something amiss in this region. It was too quiet, not even a breeze.

"Something's off..." Fatty pondered for a moment, then his brow suddenly split open, radiating starlight divine radiance, brilliant and dazzling, as streaks of starry light observed the surroundings.

His divine eye pierced through layers of illusion, probing the traces of heaven and earth. Just as Fatty's heart raced, he suddenly saw a group of shadows moving in the mist, each exuding overwhelming aura, too fearsome to look at directly.

"What's going on?" Seeing Fatty's solemn expression, Yang Tian frowned and asked.

"It seems we're surrounded..." Fatty's eyes flickered with uncertainty. They seemed to have stumbled into a terrifying great formation, unable to find their bearings, with figures moving all around, none of them weak.

"What?" Xiao Ji's pupils contracted. He urged the Taixu Boat, but found it couldn't move at all, as if suppressed by an unfathomable force. The surrounding void was like a swamp!

"Damn it, the Taixu Boat is actually fixed in place! How is that possible!" Xiao Ji's face darkened, and he shouted, "No, it's the void—the surrounding void has been fixed!"

Hearing this, Fatty's face fell. His starry divine eye glowed, rumbling as he looked up at the high sky, piercing through layers of mist to project into the firmament.

There was a cyan pearl, floating autonomously in the void. The pearl exuded an unfathomable power, suppressing the entire void. It was extremely terrifying, yet radiated an ancient divine charm.

"It's the Wind-Fixing Pearl!" Fatty gasped, his eyes nearly popping out. He couldn't help but exclaim, "It's the rare Wind-Fixing Pearl, capable of stabilizing the universe!"

"Who is so generous?" Xiao Ji's eyes showed a hint of displeasure. Such pearls were extremely rare, able to fix a stretch of void, even stopping void gales.

"The surroundings are full of old monsters, very powerful..." Fatty's expression was uncertain. If someone were calculating them, even with his proud divination skills, it wouldn't be easy to avoid being caught.

"They probably aren't targeting us," Yang Tian said, a glint of insight in his eyes. "We must have stumbled in by accident. If they had discovered us, they would have attacked by now."

"Right, the Taixu Boat is forged from void crystals and can merge with the void. The old fogies around probably haven't noticed us," Xiao Ji nodded slowly.

"Fortune and misfortune depend on each other... What rotten luck!" Fatty grumbled, cursing under his breath.

"The Divine Tide... I think they..." At this moment, Yang Tian's pupils contracted sharply as he recalled what the great black bird had said—they were likely targeting the Divine Tide!

Just as this thought occurred to Yang Tian, he sensed the void around him ripple slightly, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes, speechless.

What a coincidence—they had come right under the noses of a group of old monsters.

"These old codgers are actually after the Divine Tide..." Seeing this, Fatty couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, though inwardly he also relaxed a little.

In the distance, chaos reigned between heaven and earth. Lightning struck horizontally, precious light soared into the sky, and the entire world boiled like a massive tornado sweeping in, a scene that chilled the heart.

Within the hazy mist, countless figures were hidden, and when they noticed this change, they were overjoyed.

"Brother Yizong's divination art is truly marvelous. I admire it." At this moment, a figure slowly emerged—a middle-aged man with starry brows and sword-like eyes, who must have been a handsome man in his youth.

In this middle-aged man's eyes, however, were two peerless divine swords, radiating a terrifying sword intent that made one dare not look directly, inspiring fear.

The middle-aged man, his body like a divine sword, exuded a fierce aura. Another figure of similar age appeared here and said with a faint smile.

"Brother Jianying flatters me. I'll have to rely on your sword formation later." Yizong was refined and gentle, like a spring breeze, but a hint of barely concealed pride flickered in his eyes.

The two exchanged pleasantries. A terrifying celestial roc bird floated in the void, its gaze fixed on the approaching Divine Tide, a trace of joy appearing in its eyes.

"Brother Tianpeng, your Wind-Calming Pearl is truly marvelous." A three-legged Golden Crow stood high in the sky, its body ablaze with flames, the divine fire so intense that no one dared approach.

"Heh, this pearl has always been useless, but today it has found its purpose." Hearing this, Tianpeng looked at the azure pearl in the void and said with a smile.

This place held not only these four great experts but also a group of powerful figures and exotic beasts with divine blood flowing in their veins, all hidden in the surrounding void.

The Divine Tide raged onward, shaking heaven and earth, causing mountains to explode—a scene beyond belief, enough to make one tremble.

The immense Divine Tide surged forward. Tianpeng's body appeared in the void, spewing a vast sea of divine energy that poured onto the Wind-Calming Pearl.

Humming! The surging essence energy caused the azure light leaking from the Wind-Calming Pearl to suddenly flare up, like a small sun exploding, dazzling to the eyes, spreading in all directions.

The Divine Tide surged, splitting the sky. As the massive tide swept past, it collided with the azure light barrier spread by the Wind-Calming Pearl. The entire pearl trembled, as if about to explode.

"Stabilize!" Seeing this, Tianpeng's pupils contracted. With a sudden roar that shook the mountains and rivers, the Wind-Calming Pearl emitted a power like a dragon awakening, unleashing a terrifying divine might.

The twisted azure light barrier suddenly solidified, like a prison suppressing the great void!

The sky suppressed by the Wind-Calming Pearl spanned three hundred zhang of void. Inside, countless artifacts were sealed, all rampaging wildly, bombarding the surroundings in an attempt to break the prison.

Rumble! Heaven and earth shook. The massive Divine Tide flashed past, raging forward, while the artifacts suppressed behind it struggled free at a terrifying speed.

Tianpeng's body clanged continuously, blood even spilling from the corners of his mouth. He was both excited and shocked—the artifacts inside were extremely terrifying, almost beyond belief, and had actually injured his body.

At that moment, Jianying's body appeared in the sky. Instantly, five great experts emerged around the azure light barrier, their swords emitting boundless divine light. The five divine swords resonated simultaneously.

"I see! They want to trap the artifacts inside and take them away bit by bit..." Fatty rubbed his hands and exclaimed, his face full of fervor.

If they really succeeded in taking away a batch of artifacts, with Yizong's divination art, they might even clean out all the artifacts in the Divine Tide!

"Truly a clever move!" Yang Tian couldn't help but click his tongue, his eyes fixed on the five fearsome figures. These great experts were going all out to suppress the artifacts and then take them away, repeating the cycle—it was truly remarkable.
