The world descends on Sky Island: God-level talents are drawn at the beginning.

Looking out, the entire Heavenly Lake is vast and boundless, with tens of thousands of giant lotus leaves floating on its surface.

The smallest is the size of the moon, and the largest is even comparable to a star!

Seven-colored rays of light flowed among the lotus leaves, each ray containing a heart-pounding fluctuation of laws.

In addition, the water in this Heavenly Lake is beyond imagination.

That was not an ordinary liquid, but a liquefied essence of nature!
The extremely concentrated primal power condensed into glistening dewdrops, emitting a delicate fragrance on the lotus leaves.

The entire lake was shrouded in a faint glow, while a full moon and a sun hung high overhead.

Everything before my eyes seemed to be filled with poetic beauty, sacred to the extreme!
"This...is the real Heavenly Lake..."

Tu Gang swallowed hard, his large metallic eyes widening as if he had never seen the world before, constantly scanning his surroundings.

Even the eyes of others showed shock.

Only Qinghe and Yaolian on the side had expressions of emotion in their eyes.

After so many years, I've returned to my birthplace.

Seeing that everything around them was exactly the same as when they left, without any change, a complex emotion welled up in their hearts.

At this moment, Coal Ball seemed to have noticed something; its limbs tensed, and its eyes stared straight ahead.

Everyone followed its gaze and immediately gasped for breath again!
At the end of Tianchi Lake, a palace beyond description floats in the chaotic air.

The entire building is constructed from some kind of transparent crystal of laws, and each brick contains a complete little world within it.

Nine jade pillars reach to the sky atop the palace, each adorned with a lifelike five-clawed golden dragon.

What is most unsettling is the plaque hanging above the main gate of the palace.

There are no words on it, only ancient characters that are constantly being passed down.

Just one glance is enough to make one feel as if they have witnessed the entire process of the universe's birth and death!

"What is this palace?" Han Xing turned around and looked at Qinghe and Yaolian beside him.

The sisters were silent for a moment, then slowly shook their heads and said, "We don't know what this palace is either."

"At least, we have never seen this palace opened since we became conscious."

"According to the speculations of the lords who entered the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm, some people say that it is the exit of the secret realm, and that as long as you enter, you can leave the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm."

"Some say that it is the sacred site of the Heavenly Lake Master, where an extremely ancient being slumbers."

After she finished speaking, everyone pondered for a moment, then nodded in understanding once again.

Han Xing stopped dwelling on the mysterious palace and asked directly, "Where is your true form, the Lotus Heart?"

"Let's get our hands on the goods first."

He hadn't forgotten why he had entered the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm this time.

They came in specifically to retrieve the lotus hearts of the sisters Qinghe and Yaolian.

As for treasure hunting, it was just a side project.

Upon hearing this question, Qinghe and Yaolian exchanged a glance.
Qinghe and Yaolian closed their eyes and concentrated, and faint lotus shadows appeared around them.

Their hair moved without wind, and a strange mark formed between their brows with the light of jade and blood.

At the same time, the entire Heavenly Lake seemed to experience some special fluctuations due to their power.

The mist on the surface of Tianchi Lake began to flow faster, and the water rippled slightly.

"Splash... splash..."

Although it was just a slight ripple, from the perspective of the Korean stars, it was already a huge wave!
After all... this Heavenly Lake is really big.

Not to mention those lotus leaves that are three or four thousand kilometers in diameter, comparable in size to an asteroid.

The entire Tianchi Lake has a diameter of at least one million kilometers, equivalent to the size of a star!
One can imagine that even the smallest wave here is more terrifying than a category 18 storm on the ocean of Earth!

“Crash…crash!”

The deafening roar of the waves continued.

The two sisters opened their eyes at the same time in the next second!
"over there!"

They pointed to a place deep within Tianchi Lake.

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound, but could only see endless lotus leaves and blooming lotus flowers.

I did not see the so-called "original lotus heart".

Han Xing seemed to understand something: "Your true form, Lotus Heart... didn't fall into the water, did it?"

The two sisters pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded and said, "I'm afraid... yes."

Qinghe sighed and said, "If the lotus heart itself is at the bottom of the water, then it will be a bit troublesome."

"Where is the trouble?" Han Xing pressed.

Qinghe slowly explained, "As you can see, the water in this Heavenly Pool is not a simple liquid, but is formed from a vast primordial power."

"However... this is not a single source, but contains countless sources mixed together from the entire Lord Continent!"

"Furthermore, since flying is impossible in the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm, ordinary lords who step into this pool will be corroded by the mixed primal power and sink completely, never to awaken again..."

"Even those mid-level god-lords who possess powerful primal forces dare not stay in this pool for too long..."

"Not to mention, we also need to go deep into the pond to find the lotus seeds..."

After she finished speaking, everyone fell into a brief silence once again.

Clearly... they already knew how difficult this matter was.

Even a mid-level God Lord who steps into the Heavenly Pool will have their physical body eroded by the chaotic primordial power that fills the pool, leading to their downfall.

With their strength and control over the origin, it goes without saying.

However… Han Xing chuckled and said, “It’s alright, I’ll take care of this task.”

“I can go to the bottom of the pool and retrieve your original lotus hearts.”

Upon hearing this, everyone turned around and looked at him with disbelief.

Even the usually taciturn Yao Lian spoke up: "There's no need to be reckless. We know the dangers in this Heavenly Pool. There's no need to sacrifice a monster like you for our sake."

Qinghe echoed softly, "Yes, Lord Hanxing, we are already very grateful that you led us here."

"Even if we don't get the original lotus heart in the end, it doesn't matter. We can just find other ways to strengthen our foundation after we get out and break through to the God Realm Lord level."

"The continent is so vast, there's bound to be an opportunity for us to rebuild our foundation."

Upon hearing this, Han Xing smiled again: "You don't need to wait for the next time. Your opportunity to break through is right here."

"Since I, Han Xing, have taken your benefits and made your promises, there's no reason for me to back out halfway!"

He walked straight ahead and said, "Let's go, let's go over there."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward, and a circle of golden ripples bloomed beneath his feet.

The others exchanged glances, their eyes still showing a hint of worry.

However... in the end, they didn't say much and chose to follow silently.

After all, they had spent so much time together and knew his temperament.

Once he's made up his mind, no one can change it.

Moreover, along the way, no matter what crisis he encountered, he resolved it with unimaginable methods.

So this time is no exception.

With that thought in mind, everyone stopped talking and followed Han Xing with firm eyes as they walked forward!

"Om..."

A dazzling golden light erupted from the Korean star once again, completely enveloping everyone.

The [Smooth and Seamless] state is back in action!
"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" At that moment, they transformed into several golden rays of light and rushed forward at top speed!
The moment they reached the edge of the lotus leaf, they pushed off with all their might, using the explosive force to sprint forward!

"Wow——!"

As they moved, the dew on the lotus leaves splashed up, refracting a rainbow of colors into the sky.

Meanwhile, Han Xing and others were sprinting through the air at high speed.

Although flying is prohibited in the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm, it doesn't say that jumping is prohibited.

As long as they are fast enough, they can reach the next landing spot, which is the location of the next lotus leaf, without getting wet in the water of Tianchi.

The group transformed into seven golden streaks of light, flying rapidly above the vast and boundless Heavenly Lake.

Beside it stood a giant lotus leaf, as large as a star, each radiating an emerald-like luster.

The colorful rays of light flowing among the lotus leaves are as dazzling as a galaxy. Occasionally, the pool water that has condensed into primordial dew splashes up and explodes into thousands of primordial fragments in the air.

"Turn left!" Han Xing suddenly shouted.

The group instantly changed direction, narrowly avoiding a suddenly rising whirlpool of water.

The shattered remains of weapons could be vaguely seen in the vortex, clearly belonging to some unfortunate soul swallowed by the Heavenly Pool.

Seeing this, a hint of relief appeared in everyone's eyes.

Clearly, without Korean stars, their abilities would have made it impossible for them to traverse this Heavenly Lake Secret Realm.

In particular, his [Celestial Flowing Light Step] played a huge role in the Heavenly Pool Secret Realm.

Otherwise, this vortex alone would have completely swallowed them up, making them one of the countless wronged souls at the bottom of this Heavenly Pool.

Fortunately, thanks to the quick reaction and direction of the Korean star, they managed to get through the journey without any major incidents.

However... just as they were about to reach the next lotus leaf.

Suddenly, a tiny bulge appeared on the calm surface of the pool ahead.

But from everyone's perspective, it was not a small wave at all, but a rapidly rising liquid mountain!
Billions of tons of pool water, carrying the shattered power of the source, transformed into a colossal wave that blotted out the sky and pressed down!
Upon seeing this, everyone's pupils constricted!

The Great Beast Lord couldn't help but curse, "Damn it, such a huge wave, of all times?"

"They're not giving us any way to survive at all!"

The others also looked ashen-faced and their expressions were extremely unpleasant.

If it's just a regular giant wave, no matter how big it is, it won't have any impact on them.

After all, they can now destroy hundreds of stars with a single blow as easily as playing a game.

But this is the Heavenly Lake Secret Realm.

Not only were their strength suppressed, but they were also unable to fly.

These pools also contain a vast, chaotic primordial power.

Once they get involved, they will be instantly swallowed up and sink to the bottom of the pool.

Moreover, this giant wave erupted at an extremely fast speed.

In the time it took them to think, it had already arrived in front of them!

The raging winds whipped up by the giant waves had torn apart space, and faced with this terrifying force, everyone felt as if their very souls were about to be blown away.

"It was too late to turn around."

Han Xing drew back the bowstring and said in a deep voice, "Unleash all your power and blast a path through the giant wave."

Upon hearing this, everyone reacted instantly!
They all knew that this was the only option.

But at this moment.

"Ouch~!"

With a loud howl, the coal ball suddenly burst out of the line, its small body expanding rapidly in the air.

In an instant, it expanded to a size of thousands of kilometers!

Furthermore, the little coal ball transformed into a streak of light and rushed directly to the front of the line, actually charging towards the towering wave!
"Ball!"

Miao Qing, standing behind him, immediately let out a worried exclamation.

She and Coal Ball had been by the side of the Korean star for decades and had long developed a deep affection for the little guy.

Seeing it rush forward regardless of its own safety, I became even more anxious and even wanted to rush over after it!
At that moment, boundless void power erupted from the little guy's body.

"Hula-!"

The dark power of the void began to surge wildly, devouring the surrounding light.

In the blink of an eye, the area where the coal briquette was located instantly transformed into a pitch-black vortex with a diameter of over ten thousand miles!

The space at the edge of the vortex twisted and collapsed wildly, and the colossal wave that was powerful enough to engulf stars was forcibly torn open!
Everyone was slightly taken aback upon seeing this.

It seems that no one expected such a scene to occur.

"Little Coal Ball... has this kind of ability?"

Long Yu asked, somewhat incredulously.

The others stared in disbelief at the wildly spinning, pitch-black vortex.

However, the Korean star quickly understood.

This ability, [Void Annihilation], is a special ability that Coal Ball awakened after first consuming the [Void Spirit Fruit].

It can create a void realm where all matter and energy will be pulled, distorted, and concentrated into a singularity by the power of the void.

Clearly... this Heavenly Pool water, mixed with primordial power, is also a kind of matter and energy, so it was directly absorbed by the coal briquette.

Everyone was overjoyed and exclaimed, "Little Coal Ball, you're amazing!"

"Yes, with this ability, we won't be afraid of encountering such giant waves in the future."

Han Xing also had a relieved smile on his face, but he knew that important matters were more pressing now.

"go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the group accelerated rapidly in the air once again.

As he passed the black hole created by the coal ball, Han Xing reached out and grabbed a small coal ball in the center!
Immediately afterwards, they flashed and landed on the next lotus leaf.

"Boom!!!"

Behind them, a giant wave crashed into the empty space, and the splashing water turned into a torrential downpour.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thankfully, we made it through; it was a close call."

Han Xing smiled and then touched the little coal ball on his shoulder.

The little guy looked like a wolf cub just pulled from the water, his body wet and his black fur matted together.

However, before they could even react, another strange thing happened ahead!

"Om-!"

A surge of energy rang out.

Suddenly, a dazzling light shone on the lotus leaf they were on!

Not only that, the surrounding pool water began to churn violently.

"Splash... splash..."

To everyone's astonishment, the pool water transformed into twelve jets of water, sweeping upwards and landing on the edge of the lotus leaves!
