# Chapter 958: Wasteland Sea
The Eight Wastelands Ten Domains, the Nine Abyss Twelve Kingdoms, surrounding the Holy City Central Continent, could already be considered the absolute central region of the Nine Heavens Continent.
Here, the strong could turn the clouds with a flip of their hand and rain with a turn of their palm; some formidable individuals, enraged, would slaughter across the world, causing rivers of blood to flow. Here, those with mediocre strength and no powerful background could only suffer bullying and humiliation, enduring in silence, hoping that one day they would soar to the clouds and finally hold their heads high.
The Eight Wastelands referred to the eight directions of heaven and earth. However, there was another reason why the Eight Wastelands Realm was called the Eight Wastelands. On the outskirts of the Eight Wastelands Realm lay a region called the Wasteland. Legend had it that this Wasteland region was an ancient battlefield, where living beings suffered and the souls of the dead ran rampant. The Wasteland Qi within this region could cause death, and the dead spirits within could directly erode a person's soul. This was the true Wasteland region.
Even more terrifying was that this Wasteland region enveloped the Eight Wastelands Realm, serving as its entrance. Only by passing through this Wasteland region could one truly enter the Eight Wastelands Realm.
For formidable Venerable Ones, this Wasteland region could not affect their movements. They would wrap their bodies in Essence Qi or use the power of the Void to travel, and the Wasteland region could do nothing to them.
But for Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators, this Wasteland region was a true death zone. Unless they possessed extremely powerful treasures, relying on their own strength alone made it fundamentally impossible to cross the Wasteland.
However, since ancient times, the Wasteland had existed for countless years. Humanity could not be blocked by it forever. Many powerful experts saw opportunities within it. They created terrifying treasures, such as mobile palaces and Void ancient paths, allowing people to cross the Wasteland region. The most common of these were Wasteland Sails, Void ships specifically designed to help people cross the Wasteland region.
At this moment, upon the vast and boundless Wasteland Sea, many Wasteland Sails were shrouded in Essence Qi, shuttling through the Wasteland region at terrifying speeds.
Of course, wanting to use a Wasteland Sail to cross the Wasteland Sea came at a price, and Essence Crystals were the cost that martial cultivators had to pay. These Wasteland Sails were controlled by some superpowers or terrifying experts, who used them to continuously earn Essence Crystals.
Those who could control a Wasteland Sail were either terrifying experts or possessed formidable power. Otherwise, they simply could not maintain control; perhaps the Wasteland Sail itself would be directly seized by others. This was the classic law of the jungle, the strong devouring the weak.
The entrance to the Northern Wasteland region was also a Wasteland Sea. On the other side of the Wasteland Sea lay the Chaotic Domain, a place with no rules, no constraints, only the most primitive survival of the fittest.
In this Chaotic Domain, people constantly came to the Wasteland Sea, wanting to cross it and enter the Eight Wastelands Realm. Especially during this period, countless people were heading to the Northern Wasteland region of the Eight Wastelands Realm. The news that the Stone Emperor and the Yu Emperor were recruiting their first batch of Martial Emperor's Disciples had spread from that side of the Wasteland Sea to this side, causing countless hearts to begin throbbing with excitement.
Therefore, people from various regions came here, wanting to cross the Wasteland Sea to reach the Northern Wasteland region of the Eight Wastelands Realm. The number was extremely large, almost causing a shortage of Wasteland Sails.
Among this advancing army, there was a Great Roc Heavenly Demon carrying a group of figures, also arriving at this chaotic region on the edge of the Wasteland Sea.
A fourth-level Great Roc Heavenly Demon, along with a group of young men and women at the First or Second Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm, were like a drop in the ocean in this region, causing not even a ripple. No one even gave them a second glance. Heavenly Demons were too common. As for low-level Heavenly Martial Realm experts, they were countless; walking down the main road and casually glancing around, one would see nothing but Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators.
Especially now that the Stone Emperor and the Yu Emperor were simultaneously recruiting Martial Emperor's Disciples, it had attracted countless geniuses.
The Heavenly Demon Great Roc landed on the ground. Lin Feng and the others were covered in the dust of travel, but their eyes were all bright and sharp as they scanned the surrounding figures. Excitement shone in their gazes.
"All of them are Heavenly Martial Realm. You can barely see anyone at Mysterious Martial Realm. This is the true world of martial cultivators." The Great Pest murmured softly, his excitement seeming to burn within him. This was just this section of the Wasteland Sea. Once they entered the Eight Wastelands Realm, there would probably be even more experts. This was the stage he wanted, an era that made one's blood boil. It had arrived.
"Keep a low profile, restrain yourself." Lin Feng glared at Huangfu Long. This guy really couldn't stay still. Although the strength of the martial cultivators here made one's blood boil, there was also a sense of pressure and urgency pressing down on them.
Being at the First or Second Layer of Heavenly Martial Realm was simply too weak. It meant nothing here. Many people had the capital to destroy them.
"Hehe, got it. Low profile." The Great Pest chuckled foolishly. Occasionally, people passed by them, their peripheral glances sweeping over them with a hint of disdain. These guys didn't know where they had crawled out from; they had never seen the world.
"Let's go. Let's go see the legendary Wasteland Sea." Lin Feng spoke, and the Heavenly Demon Great Roc soared into the sky, rushing off into the distance.
From the Qian Domain to the edge of this Wasteland Sea, aside from stopping for a few days midway, they had been continuously traveling. Yet it still took them over two months to arrive here.
With the terrifying speed of the Heavenly Demon Great Roc, flying for over two months, one could imagine just how far the Qian Domain was from here.
The Heavenly Demon Great Roc raced through the void. After some more time, within Lin Feng and the others' field of vision, a true Wasteland region appeared—a boundless, terrifying Wasteland Sea.
"This is the legendary Wasteland Sea. If we want to go to the Eight Wastelands Realm, we have to cross this Wasteland Sea." Lin Feng murmured to himself, feeling a sense of dread. They were still ten miles away from the Wasteland Sea, yet they could already feel the terrifying Wasteland Qi emanating from it. Within the Wasteland Sea, it seemed as if destructive storm forces were everywhere, shredding everything. It was said that in the central zone of the Wasteland Sea, there were also terrifying dead spirits. A single roar from them could shake a person to death. There were also some terrifying undead that even a Venerable One would have no way to survive if encountered.
Therefore, unless one had absolute confidence in their own strength, very few people relied on their own power to cross the Wasteland Sea. Instead, they would take a Wasteland Sail.
"Look over there!" At that moment, Yun Feiyang pointed in a certain direction in the distance. There, a dazzling beam of light was traveling through the air above the Wasteland Sea.
"This Wasteland Sea is a strange region. Legend has it that it was an ancient battlefield. No matter how powerful a martial cultivator is, they can only fly within a thousand meters above the Wasteland Sea. So it's impossible to avoid the Wasteland Sea."
"It's Sword Venerable Thirteen. Such terrifying strength. In this region, not many dare to cross the Wasteland Sea. Sword Venerable Thirteen is one of them."
Many people were shocked by that beam of light. A terrifying sword light wrapped around his body. His entire being was like a sword, radiating brilliance in all directions.
"Shiiing..." The distant figure instantly arrived nearby, streaking across the sky above the crowd. A terrifying sword Qi seemed to tear space itself apart. Lin Feng looked up at the void. Above their heads, there was a terrifying beam of sword light, as if piercing through the void.
"Such a terrifying sword cultivator!" Lin Feng's heart trembled. Even just passing over their heads, he could feel a destructive sword power, as if wherever that sword pointed, everything there would be annihilated.
"It's said that those who dare to cross the Wasteland Sea are all terrifying without exception."
"That's right. One day, I will be just like him, stepping through the void, holding a great axe, crossing this Wasteland Sea. Perhaps that day won't be too far off." Huangfu Long's heart was filled with boiling blood. He was looking forward to it, looking forward to the excitement to come, to the martial world teeming with experts, to the endless opportunities and challenges awaiting him.
And with so many companions to explore with him, it felt great.
"It will definitely happen." Lin Feng nodded. He also firmly believed that such a day would come. At that time, with a single thought, his sword would pierce the sky, tear through space, and he would roam freely across the world, with no one able to bind him, no one able to interfere with him.
"No ambition." Qiongqi spat out a sound, causing the group's eyes to freeze. Then Huangfu Long's huge eyes stared at Qiongqi and said, "Are you going to start bragging again?"
"Does I, the Emperor, need to brag?" Qiongqi glared at Huangfu Long angrily.
"Fine, I'm used to it anyway." Huangfu Long shrugged.
"Hoo..." Qiongqi exhaled a burst of flame from his mouth, making Huangfu Long watch him warily. This guy hadn't spared him from being set on fire along the way.
"Alright, let's find a Wasteland Sail and cross this Wasteland Sea." Lin Feng said. Qiongqi and Huangfu Long stopped their commotion.
PS: Two chapters today. Adding the one chapter owed from the day before yesterday, that's two chapters owed in total. My state hasn't been great these past few days, and since everyone doesn't seem to have much enthusiasm, I don't have much passion either. I'll try to boost morale in a few days!
