342: Chapter 341 The Words of the Great Demon 342: Chapter 341 The Words of the Great Demon Just as the ten of them were pressing on.
A kilometer away from them.
In the boundless darkness of the oceanic world, giant stone steles that were about a kilometer high stood erect.
These steles were scattered haphazardly on the seafloor, illuminating the marine area for thousands of miles.
And if anyone could look down on this marine area from high above, they would find a vast hole of boundless darkness at the center of the chaotic stone array.
The hole led straight to the depths of the earth, as if it was a portal to the Devil World.
Right in the middle of this hole, a heart-throbbing power was emanating.
Sha Tongtian moved forward, and when he saw the Chaotic Stone Array, he exclaimed, “Gentlemen, we’re here.”
His words stirred everyone out of their daze, and they all looked up.
In front of them, a kilometer-high stele stood in the darkness, like a giant beast.
Sha Tongtian threw the glow from his hand onto this stone stele.
Lighting up the darkness around.
Only then did Lin Bai realize that the stone stele was about a kilometer high, and on it, strange runes were densely engraved.
Right at the center of the stone stele, a deep blue gem was emitting a white glow.
As the gem on this stone stele lit up, all the gems on the other steles in the Chaotic Stone Array lit up simultaneously.
Only then did Lin Bai realize how vast this Chaotic Stone Array truly was, stretching out for at least thousands of miles.
The Chaotic Stone Array, although complex and disorderly, seemed orderly in its chaos.
It was like a natural law between heaven and earth, defining these thousands of miles of marine region into the void and not subject to the rules of the world.
“This is the Land of Sealing.”
Said Sha Tongtian.
Lin Bai looked up, on the stele in front of him, cracks were present on the transparent gem, from where a rich spiritual aura was emitting.
“Is this the gap?” Lin Bai was surprised as he looked at the cracks on the gem.
Indeed, these three almost unperceivable cracks on the gem were the gap.
The spirit aura that emanated from the cracks shot upwards, breaking through the sea surface, forming the Spirit Spring Sea.
It wasn’t just Lin Bai who saw the cracks on the gem.
Poison Dragon Island Master, Xue Jianke, Jin Qiu, Xiang Tian, they all saw the three cracks, their faces revealing surprise, followed by ecstatic joy.
Especially the Poison Dragon Island Master, who quickly said, “Sha Tongtian, what are you waiting for?
Take out the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman quickly, and seal this crack.”
“Fine.”
Sha Tongtian responded.
He calmly took out the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman from his storage bag, which he had purchased from the Treasure Pavilion for sixty-five billion spirit stones but made no move to seal the crack with it.
“Sha Tongtian, what are you doing?
Go quickly.” The Poison Dragon Island Master said in a somewhat anxious tone.
Sha Tongtian held the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman, a smile creeping up his lips, but he wasn’t eager to move forward.
The Poison Dragon Island Master’s eyes changed, and he looked at Sha Tongtian confused about why he was not sealing the crack.
Xue Jianke, Jin Qiu, and Xiang Tian were also taken aback.
Lin Bai narrowed his eyes, a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He discretely put his hand on his storage bag.
If anything unexpected happened, he was ready to take out his Qingge sword and attack Sha Tongtian.
Their only purpose in coming here was to seal this gap.
Now that they were here, why wasn’t Sha Tongtian going to seal the gap?
“He’s probably waiting for someone.”
Ka ka——
Just as everyone was puzzled, a low and hoarse voice echoed out in this dark world.
“Who?”
“Who’s talking?”
Lin Bai, Poison Dragon Island Master, Jin Qiu, Xue Jianke, and Xiang Tian were all startled.
The moment they heard this voice, their hairs stood on end.
An involuntary chill rushed up from the soles of their feet to their foreheads.
Sweat poured down their backs as a fear originating from their souls spread in their hearts.
“I?
Who am I?
Ha-ha, little fellows, you’ve come here to seal me, yet you don’t even know who I am?” The voice continued to echo.
Thud!
Poison Dragon Island Master, Xue Jianke, and Lin Bai, all their hearts tightened as they looked toward the midst of the Chaotic Stone Array.
“Who are you, Great Demon?” Poison Dragon Island Master asked in disbelief.
The Great Demon answered, “Hehe, and here I was thinking that you didn’t know who I was.”
“You bunch of little fellows are really interesting.
All these years, you’ve been trying to break my jade seal, yet now you want to seal it up again.”
“What on earth do you really want to do?”
The Great Demon said with a laugh.
Lin Bai asked, “Who wanted to break the jade seal?”
Previously, Hua Qinghai had said that an unknown powerful individual had broken a crack in the seal of the Land of Sealing.
That’s why they had to purchase the Sea Suppressing Jade Talisman to block the gap.
The Great Demon laughed and said, “They did.”
“They?” Lin Bai looked over Sha Tongtian, Hua Wanqing, Long Feihai, Sun Jiacheng, and Qiu Biao.
“Is it the Eight Great Clans from the East Sea?” Lin Bai asked curiously.
“Who else could it be?
Who else would know that I’m sealed here?” The Great Demon laughingly said.
Crack!
Lin Bai was dumbstruck, like he’d been struck by lightning.
The Island Master of Poison Dragon Island and Xue Jianke, Jin Qiu, and Xiang Tian all looked at Sha Tongtian and the others in confusion.
“What on earth is going on?
Why did the Eight Great Clans try to break the seal, and why are they now trying to cover up the gap?” Lin Bai asked curiously.
“Why ask me?
You should ask them,” the Great Demon chuckled.
When the Great Demon spoke, his voice was soft and gentle, unlike a demon who had killed countless lives.
Sha Tongtian bitterly laughed, “Damn it, you damned Great Demon, I’m asking you once again.
Can you help us remove the Slave Seals on us?!”
Slave Seals!
Understanding flickered in Lin Bai’s eyes.
So, it was for the Slave Seals.
Lin Bai seemed to understand.
The Eight Great Clans didn’t want to be trapped in the East Sea forever, or to be controlled by others forever.
That’s why they wanted to shatter the seal and make a deal with the Great Demon?
The Great Demon lightly laughed, “Little boy, you should know that if you dared to speak to me like this in the past, you’d have been dead hundreds of times over.”
Sha Tongtian scoffed, “Ha ha ha, of course I know that.
But now, you can’t do anything to me.
All you can do is slowly rot away in this dark, underworld.”
“Great Demon, this is your last chance.
We’ll let you out, but you have to help us remove the Slave Seals on us.”
“This is a deal.
More likely, once you remove the Slave Seals, we can become your followers, helping you go to war and make your name known for eternity.”
Sha Tongtian declared loudly.
Poison Dragon Island Master’s eyes were bloodshot with anger.
He roared, “Sha Tongtian, for your own interests, your Eight Great Clans want to free the Great Demon and bring disaster to the world?”
“Do you realize that once he reappears, the entire East Sea, the entire 700 states of Lingdong, will turn into a sea of flames!”
“The East Sea is your home!”
Poison Dragon Island Master roared.
