"What are you doing? Get up quickly!"
Wang Ye looked at so many people kneeling, even Hai Yun'er was no exception, and immediately reached out to help them up.
However, no one dared to rise.
"You are indeed the savior prophesied. We've waited ten thousand years. Finally, we see you appear."
The old man of Sea Dragon Country spoke, lifting the hair on his forehead with his right hand, revealing a withered skeleton.
He was a former king of the Sea Dragon Country, fortunate enough to cultivate a technique beyond the body refinement system, thereby gaining ten thousand years of lifespan.
But when he discovered that this plane was in chaos, he wanted to act but felt powerless.
No matter who it was, everyone regarded him as a monster.
This feeling made him once give up on saving the Sea Dragon Country.
However, he eventually couldn't resist taking action.
Even so, he could no longer attack the land forces forming considerable strength.
Because the rules of heaven and earth had a strange suppression, anyone who cultivated to extend lifespan, or could seize the rules of heaven and earth, could no longer interfere in the world.
Otherwise, myriad heavenly tribulations would descend as punishment.
"Old man, get up quickly!"
Wang Ye didn't understand why the other did this, but still tried hard to help the person stand.
When he understood the other's words, he also began to realize that this person had unspeakable suffering.
After all, both were cultivators, and the other could see Wang Ye's identity at a glance, understanding his power was not simple.
Wang Ye also saw the other person's background, possessing only the early Heavenly King realm power.
The two felt regret for not meeting earlier, and as soon as they met, they continued to converse.
This scene even made Hai Yun'er mistakenly think the two were grandfather and grandson, otherwise such affection would be impossible.
Wang Ye was very concerned about the other and had more respect for him in his heart.
He discovered that this person didn't harbor hostility towards him but could answer many of Wang Ye's questions.
After standing up, the old man began to explain the history of this plane.
He was very wary of Wang Ye at first. Now he realized this young man wasn't bloodthirsty, for the first time distinguishing between cultivators.
This plane is called the Eight Desolate Star Domain, one of the most barren star domains among eight.
Here, any cultivator with some strength already ascended, breaking through the plane's barriers to other star domains.
Unfortunately, the strength of those people was not strong.
Most left this star domain at only the Heavenly King boundary, with conceivable consequences.
When Wang Ye went to the Eighth Order Emperor Peak world, he was already at the Third Order Imperial Sovereign Zenith.
Compared to this, the ascended strong ones of this plane were like ants, only comparable to a woman.
That woman was Tina, and had she not met a good person like Wang Ye, she might have ended as an outlet for strong ones.
Now, after seeing Wang Ye, the old man explained the hardships of this plane and indicated that it had a special power.
This power was the faint golden halo surrounding Wang Ye.
"Senior, this golden light is the devout offering and faith of countless people in you, commonly known as the power of fortune, also called the power of faith."
The old man spoke, trembling all over.
He once accidentally obtained a wordless heavenly scripture, skyrocketing in strength.
However, he always couldn't comprehend what the so-called Great Child of Destiny truly was.
Only when the recent battles ceased did he realize the prophecy had come true.
At this time, the King of the Sea Dragon Country also arrived upon hearing the news.
Upon his arrival, he immediately took several important people into a secret chamber in the Sea Dragon Kingdom Palace.
There, he explained who caused all of this back then.
At the same time, he brought out a truly coveted treasure of Sea Dragon Country.
Wang Ye saw a crystalline key, curiously taking it to inspect.
Immediately, his body began absorbing all the surrounding air into his fingers like a magnet, finally entering the key.
"What is happening? Is this the opening of a secret realm?"
Wang Ye speculated about the issue in his heart.
But he didn't know what the exact issue was.
The King of the Sea Dragon Country gave him a hint to place the key into the ground to reveal all answers.
Wang Ye looked at the King of the Sea Dragon Country, Hai Yun'er, and the old man beside him, slowly placing the key on the ground.
Suddenly, the ground shook, transforming into a blood-red maw.
Wang Ye backed away in horror, as if witnessing something he'd rather never see in his life.
Because, in that blood-red maw, countless people were being torn apart, seemingly suffering eternal agony without release.
The King of the Sea Dragon Country explained the reason for the Sea Dragon Country having so many cultivation resources.
As long as someone is thrown into this blood-red maw, countless spirit grasses and spiritual medicines will grow in Sea Dragon Country's seabed, even extremely rare spirit fruits, and super spirit fruits appearing every hundreds of thousands to millions of years.
Yet, because of this, people from the Sea Dragon Country used to constantly go to the land, capturing a large number of cultivators, taking them to the seabed, and throwing them in for the blood sacrifice.
This repeated for thousands of years, causing true battles between the Sea Dragon Country and land powers.
"Senior, since you possess unimaginable power, can you please take this thing away?"
The King of the Sea Dragon Country sincerely explained and looked at Wang Ye, waiting for his response.
Though Hai Yun'er also saw the bizarre creature for the first time, she understood that in this life, she would never have a chance with Wang Ye.
So she could only secretly glance more at Wang Ye, hoping to firmly remember this human man in her heart.
As for the old cultivator of the Sea Dragon Country, he could no longer face the insatiable blood-red maw.
"Senior, this thing is a disaster for this plane. Why don't you take it away?"
"Its power seems to be an extreme and bloody force, is this the manifestation of the opposition between greed and faith?"
Wang Ye pondered for a while, raising his right hand to release more golden light.
Then he looked at the blood-red maw in front of him, understanding these opposing forces were also a kind of power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
This also let him realize for the first time.
The Force of Myriad Dao he once cultivated was just incomplete.
Although he had already fused all forces into the Black Flame, it still wasn't complete.
Now, a great opportunity lay before him, for the first time giving him the desire to continue exploring the structure of all power systems in the world.
It was this thought that made Wang Ye decide to take away this greedy and corrupt power.
However, his strength hadn't fully recovered and he needed to stay in the Sea Dragon Country for a while.
"I agree to take away this power, but I haven't recovered my strength yet. I am currently willing but insufficient."
Wang Ye's meaning was clear, to continue cultivating in the Sea Dragon Country.
Until he could gain enough power of faith and restore his past memories and strength.
Only then would he have the chance to take away the blood-red maw.
