Chapter 555: Calling for Help

At that moment, before Xu Yang and the others could react, the outline of the Sea God's phantom suddenly appeared behind them. The Sea God actually made a face at the female envoy not far in front.

"Little girl, it's been hundreds of thousands of years, and you haven't grown an inch!"

Upon seeing the Sea God behind Xu Yang, the female envoy's face immediately flushed with extreme shame and anger.

"You old geezer, I'd love to flay you alive, and you dare to come back!"

The Sea God chuckled. "I understand why you hate me. After all, if it hadn't been for me back then, you would have become a Divine Apostle of the Earth's Power lineage long ago! Coincidentally, it was the day before you were to receive your esteemed position that I stole the sacred text, bringing shame to the entire Earth lineage and implicating you by stealing the secret manual."

"Shut up! How dare you even mention the past? Though I can't defeat you, I will demand justice even if it costs me my life!"

Without warning, the female envoy suddenly erupted in fury. Her pupils burned with a suffocating blood-red glow. At the same time, as if granted divine power, her body suddenly swelled several times its size, and she forcibly shattered the Earth Seal cage that Xu Yang had cast before her with her bare body.

"Damn it, does she have to be so strong? This woman, after all this time, actually possesses such bizarre and powerful reserves!"

The smile on the Sea God's face also faded slightly. "What you don't know is that although this woman is currently only an envoy leader, back then she was the most talented young strong cultivator in the entire Glacier Kingdom. If the sacred text hadn't gone missing, stolen by me, she would be the Queen of the Glacier Kingdom today!"

Xu Yang and the others couldn't help but purse their lips in resignation. "If that's truly the case, old man, we really don't feel like protecting you. You've ruined her entire life, and now you're deliberately provoking her again?"

Even Ling Yao couldn't stand it anymore, and she couldn't help but grumble at the Sea God.

"Hmph, what could I do? I had my reasons back then. If the sacred text hadn't been taken by me, the entire Glacier Ruins might not exist today!"

"Nonsense! You clearly coveted the secrets of the Earth inheritance within the sacred text, which is why you secretly took it, making our Earth inheritance lineage search far and wide! But I truly didn't expect you to be so arrogant as to cause trouble right in front of our teleportation gate. It seems I have no choice but to deal with you!"

It was evident that the red-robed female envoy truly had some tricks up her sleeve. It was unclear what other methods she had unleashed, but within moments, dozens of tall figures rapidly materialized inside the teleportation passage. Each and every one of them was a top-tier guard, no weaker than the female envoy herself!

"Ahahaha, so you're starting to call for backup? Very well, I'll let my inheritor show you what true power is!"

With that, the Sea God's outline merged with Xu Yang, returning to his body once more. Xu Yang regained full control, and the extraordinary phenomenon of "Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea" slowly began to coalesce.

In just an instant, the surging aura emanating from this phenomenon, combined with the incredibly subtle coordination between the Sea God's Domain and the Laws of Earth, was ultimately channeled and unleashed by Xu Yang's unique Asura Path power. The power that erupted truly astonished the dozens of guards before them.

"This mortal realm is merely a lower plane. When did such an astonishingly talented and peerless master appear here? The Sea God choosing him as his successor truly means his talent is not to be underestimated."

Among the dozen or so top-tier guards who arrived as reinforcements, the tall leading guard seemed to be trying to curry favor with the female envoy. Upon seeing her, he immediately approached. "You may use these people as you wish, but you must remember, absolutely do not allow anyone of suspicious identity into the Glacier Kingdom, even if it costs you everything, you must prevent this from happening!"

The female envoy smiled in satisfaction. "Excellent. Your words reassure me."

"Go all out. With me personally backing you up, I doubt they'll be able to cause much trouble."

Indeed! After Xu Yang heard this fellow utter such arrogant words, he immediately felt an incredibly strong killing intent emanating from him.

Rumble!

The corners of the female envoy's mouth curved slightly upward, as if she was already envisioning the unparalleled pleasure of conquering Xu Yang in her mind.

At the same moment, the golden wings that materialized behind her also boosted her movement speed to its maximum.

"Do you really think that with divine heritage, you can do whatever you want? Then I'll make you understand: an ant will always be an ant!"

In an instant, the female envoy pointed a finger towards the sky. A vast aura swiftly began to condense at a central point. The scene of wind and clouds swirling flowed through boundless water waves directly to the glowing battlefield around the teleportation area.

"Oh my god, boss, what's going on? This looks a bit strange!"

"What terrifying pressure... Look, those lights seem to have formed a mountain, pressing down on us!"

The female envoy revealed an incredibly arrogant and cold smile. "If you can truly evade this move of mine, I will let you live! Otherwise, obediently follow me into the Glacier Purgatory!"

Xu Yang's brows furrowed deeply, yet there was not the slightest trace of fear on his face, as if his heart was truly as tough as iron.

"Since you're so confident, then come at me!"

The next moment, Xu Yang directly unleashed the divine skill "Universe in a Sleeve." However, this time, he performed this "Cicada Sloughing" technique not just to deal with the woman, but for the safety of himself and his team!

A terrifying sonic wave rapidly spread out. Xu Yang, using this supreme spatial divine ability, forcibly created a vacuum of the surrounding moisture, leaving only his group's aura in place. But when the mountain-like force pressed down, it didn't even touch a single hair on Xu Yang or his companions!

"What! This, how is this possible..."

"If I'm not mistaken, what he just used was truly the Universe in a Sleeve!"

The head of the reinforcement guards, who had just been acting arrogant, was completely dumbfounded.

"You... are you sure that guy is just an ordinary person? I don't think so!"

The female envoy was no better off than her companion beside her, and she spoke faintly. "This fellow took the sacred text and comprehended the profound mysteries of the Universe in a Sleeve. If we don't seize this opportunity to jointly eliminate him, even if he can't enter the Glacier Kingdom, he will surely grow into a major threat to us!"

The guard commander from within the Glacier Kingdom's teleportation gate chuckled. "In my opinion, why don't we just bring him directly into the Glacier Kingdom? That's our territory; we can deal with them however we please there! Otherwise, in this sea domain, with the Sea God's inherited power assisting him, even if he's not our match, conquering him won't be something we can achieve overnight."

The female envoy pondered for a moment and found it increasingly logical, so she nodded gravely.

"What you say isn't entirely without reason, but currently, he possesses the 'Universe in a Sleeve' divine ability and can freely alter energy forms. How can we pinpoint his location?"

The guard commander gave a chilling smile. "As for that, just leave it to me."
