This assassin is upright

Chapter 282 Wish Gem, Unknown Land (asking for monthly ticket!)

On the silent sea, there was a huge isolated island, all silent and still. In a circular hole in the center of the island, the water reflected the light without any ripples.

Until one moment, it burst like a broken mirror, and then figures rushed out of it quickly and returned to the isolated island.

It was Yu Jun and his five companions who had returned to the shore from the bottom of the sea.

At this moment, the expressions of the five people were filled with fear after surviving a disaster.

"The guy down there might be more powerful than we thought." Lu Wen panted, trying to calm himself down. "I didn't dare to speak at all down there."

"The one just now was at least a rank three expert." Hermod said with a serious face, "and he was one of the strongest among them."

"That's what I guessed as well." Yu Zhun nodded slightly, "I'm a little curious about the origins of these secret realms now."

"The copies in the [Divine Revelation World] are the result of the transformation of the world. Then how did the secret realms in the [Heaven Ruins Holy Realm] come about?"

"Could it be that there are beings trapped like this in every secret realm, but some are relatively weak and have long since turned into ashes with the passage of time, while others are sleeping in an extremely weak state?"

After hearing Yu Zhun's guess, several people looked at each other.

If Yu Zhun's guess is true, then who is the person who trapped these beings in the secret realm?
Could it be the master of Tianxu Temple?
If so, they would understand why the master of the Palace of Gods and Demons would try every means to find out about this place through them.

Because there is indeed a big secret hidden here!
"We'll talk about this later." Yu Zhu rubbed his hands excitedly, his face full of anticipation, "Should we fish up the fragments?"

"Yes." Yu Zhun nodded slightly and looked at Udyr, "Control [Endless Thoughts] to shorten and pull the fragments up."

"Okay." Udyr nodded and was about to take action, but suddenly he thought of something and stopped, "Pull quickly or slowly?"

Hearing this question, Yu Zhun frowned and thought about it.

Pulling quickly will create a louder noise underwater, which is more likely to disturb the sleeping being, but it will take less time, and the fragments may have already left the sea water before the other party wakes up.

Pulling slowly will make less noise, but it will take a long time. If you really alarm the other party, the fragments will not be pulled up at all.

These two options have their own advantages and disadvantages. After weighing the pros and cons, Yu Zhun's eyes were determined when he thought of the current state of the person under the sea.

"Pull quickly, as fast as you can!"

"I understand." Udyr nodded and used his willpower to control the [Endless Thoughts] in his hand.

Flashes of light flowed on the silk thread, and the thread contracted at such an astonishing speed that it created ripples on the water surface.

At this moment, a terrible tremor suddenly came from the bottom of the sea.

The calm sea suddenly became agitated, and endless waves rose up like the roar of a god.

The original island floating on the sea also shook violently with the turbulence of the sea water.

The expressions of Yu Zhun and the other four changed at the same time.

That existence was alarmed!
"Look over there!" Yu Zhu widened his eyes and exclaimed in surprise.

Looking in the direction she pointed, the five people's faces turned pale at the same time.

Huge waves that are thousands or tens of thousands of meters high are sweeping towards the island frantically. If the huge waves hit the island, it will be submerged in an instant.

Once this happens, the existence under the sea will definitely take action against them!
"How long will it take?" Yu Zhun looked at Udyr suddenly.

The latter's face was pale, and the silk thread in his hand was still shrinking madly. Under the sea, the outline of fragments floating up quickly could be seen.

Just a little bit closer!
It must be in time!

Yu Zhun and the other five looked more nervous than ever before, until a low roar was heard, and the debris pulled to the surface of the sea instantly aligned with the gap. A flash of light passed, and the last gap in the island was filled.

Pristine island, completely intact.

"Om-"

A slight tremor echoed throughout the island.

Then, rays of light shot out from the edge of the island, and then intertwined in the sky above the island, forming a light film that covered the entire island.

"boom!!!"

The huge waves hit the light film hard, but the island stood still like a reef.

After a moment, Hermod suddenly spoke.

"The island is rising!"

Everyone quickly went to the edge of the island and looked down.

The island that was originally floating on the sea is now hundreds of meters away from the sea surface and is still rising rapidly.

The sea surface was getting farther and farther away. The huge waves below could no longer touch the island at all, and could only rage on like a raging rage.

"this…"

Everyone looked at each other, and after a long time, Yu Zhun slowly spoke.

“So, this island is originally in the sky.”

"No wonder there is nothing at the bottom of it, and no wonder its fragments can float on the sea."

If this was a floating island, then everything would make sense.

"Look! There's something in the sky!" Udyr exclaimed.

In the sky, a palace quickly enlarged in everyone's sight.

The direction in which the island was rising at this moment was facing the palace.

When it came to a complete stop, the palace was right on the island.

Yu Zhun and his companions looked down at the sea below again. The originally vast and boundless sea that seemed to have no end in sight was now within sight at this height.

At this moment, an idea inexplicably emerged in the minds of the five people.

If the sea water below suppresses the existence of the seabed, then this floating island and the palace in the sky are the places that supervise the seabed.

One day, for some reason, the floating island was shattered, and pieces of debris scattered on the sea, forming islands.

After that, it became the same as when they entered the secret realm.

"It seems that the palace is the core of the secret realm." Yu Zhun looked at the magnificent and gorgeous palace in the sky, his eyes flashing slightly.

In that brief moment, he had some guesses about the palace.

"Let's go in and take a look."

If his guess was correct, destroying this secret realm might be much easier than the last time.

"Squeak-"

With the joint efforts of several people, the dusty door of the palace was slowly pushed open. Yu Zhun and the other four ignored the dusty gorgeous reliefs and various decorations. Their eyes were first fixed on the five gems in the center of the main hall.

These five gems are completely identical in shape or material. As each of the five people took one, the same information appeared before their eyes.

[Wish Gem: A one-time item that consumes wish power to fulfill a wish. The amount of wish power consumed is related to the wish.]

In just a moment, the five people's eyes lit up at the same time.

"If I'm not mistaken..." Yu Zhu took a breath, "As long as I have enough willpower, any wish can be fulfilled?"

"According to the description, it is correct." Yu Zhun nodded, "Although one can only be used once."

The value of such props is unquestionable.

Yu Zhun even suspected that this might be the most precious of all the wish-power props in the [Tianxu Holy Realm], without a doubt.

The word "willpower" is embodied in this prop.

Without any hesitation, the five of them collected the [Wish Gem] at the same time.

At this moment, it is far from the time to use this prop.

Yu Zhun's gaze fell on the crystal platform used to place the gem after taking away the [Wish Gem].

He placed a hand gently on it, his eyes slightly determined. "This crystal platform is the heart of the secret realm."

"As long as it is smashed, the secret realm will be destroyed."

"This is too smooth." Lu Wen couldn't help but sighed, "The previous secret realm I went to, it took me a lot of effort just to find the heart of the secret realm, but this time I saw it as soon as I entered."

"It's different." Yu Zhun shook his head slightly, "First of all, we also went through a lot of difficulties before we found this place."

Hearing this, several people simultaneously thought of their previous attempts with fear and trepidation, and a look of recognition appeared on their faces.

"Besides that, this is also the most important point." Yu Zhun paused for a moment, "In the secret realms you and I have visited before, there were no such sealed horrible beings."

"I guess it was sealed before, but the one sealed was far less powerful than the one in front of him, so dust returned to dust."

"After that, the secret realm lost its original meaning and gradually became what it was when we entered."

"Under such circumstances, the monsters and other beings that naturally develop in the secret realm will naturally do their best to prevent us from destroying the secret realm."

"But this is a different time..." Yu Zhun paused, "This island was probably sunk by some means by an entity under the sea."

"This means that it is already very difficult for this secret realm to block the existence of the seabed. Not only is it impossible to wear down the opponent, it is even likely to allow the opponent to escape at some point in the future."

Thinking of that possibility, everyone couldn't help but shudder.

A guy like this has been trapped at the bottom of the sea for who knows how many years. How crazy would he become if he had the chance to get out?
“So, if the being who created the secret realm to trap the powerful people himself has no way to enter the [Tianxu Holy Realm],” Yu Zhun said with a smile, “He would really hope that someone would help Him.”

The air suddenly became silent.

The other people looked at Yu Zhun with a bit of horror in their eyes.

"You can guess this?!" Hermod couldn't help but say.

"No... I'm just guessing." Yu Zhun shook his head. "I don't really have any evidence. It's just a hunch."

"You know what intuition is, right?"

The other four shook their heads woodenly.

What a bullshit intuition!

It's outrageous!
Seeing his friends' strange expressions, Yu Zhun quickly changed the subject, "Let's talk about the present."

"Although smashing this crystal platform will destroy the secret realm."

"But we haven't fully explored this palace yet."

"From what I saw just now, this palace has more than a dozen side halls." Udyr continued, with anticipation in his eyes, "There should be good things in other side halls as well."

After hearing this, the others temporarily put aside Yu Zhun’s previous speculation and quickly became excited.

I got the [Wish Gem] as soon as I came in. What other good things are there here?

Without any hesitation, several people followed the passage and entered the next side hall.

After their carpet-style search, all the side halls were soon cleared out.

Good news, every side hall here has props for making wishes.

Bad news, these wish-power items are far inferior to the [Wish Gems].

After each of them was assigned the most suitable props, the five people returned to the main hall.

As Yu Zhun stabbed the dagger into the crystal table fiercely, the entire crystal table was easily shattered, and the surrounding space collapsed layer by layer like glass.

The first thing to turn into ashes was the palace where Yu Zhun and four others were, followed by the floating island under their feet.

Then, a desperate roar rang out, causing Yu Zhun and the other five who were barely able to keep their bodies steady in the air to look down.

The deep sea water turned into countless inky black wishes, rushing towards Yu Zhun and the other four people madly.

In an instant, the wishes of Yu Zhun and the other four soared at a terrifying speed.

Ten thousand... fifty thousand... one hundred thousand...

As the five people's willpower soared, the sea level also dropped rapidly, until the chains on the seabed and the existence trapped by the chains were exposed to the sight of Yu Zhun and the other four.

The terrifying existence that they could only barely glimpse a corner of before now revealed its entire appearance before their eyes.

A voice filled with endless hatred echoed for a long time in the broken void as the other party slowly raised his head.

"Tianxu..."

"You have to die!!!"

The next moment, a terrifying aura rose into the sky. Just a slight sense of the residual power made Yu Zhun and the other four lose consciousness instantly.

In the last moment before losing consciousness, Yu Zhun vaguely saw a mysterious sword light like the bright sun slashing towards the trapped being.

Then, everything turned to ashes.

There seemed to be a faint sound of surprise, which soon faded into silence.
-
"Hey, bro, wake up!"

Hearing a faint call, Yu Zhun's silent consciousness gradually returned. He slowly opened his eyes, but felt dizzy because the light was too bright.

"Yeah, you're awake!"

There was a hint of surprise in the voice, and then Yu Zhun felt someone helping him sit up.

He gradually adjusted to the light around him, and was then able to see clearly the person beside him who was helping him up.

It was a girl with an unfamiliar face, but her expression was full of undisguised concern, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Yu Zhun moved his body, slowly stood up, and then shook his head, "I have no problem, thank you."

"You're welcome. I saw you fainted on the beach, so of course I had to save you." The girl giggled, but her words made Yu Zhun's heart tremble.

sea!
The memories before the coma quickly returned. Yu Zhun rubbed his eyebrows and then remembered the causes and consequences of his coma.

Whose sword light appeared at the last moment?

Forget it, let’s not worry about this for now.

They destroyed the secret island, so they should have been randomly teleported to a certain location, so where is this?
"Girl, when you found me, did you see anyone else around me?" Yu Zhun suddenly looked at the girl next to him.

“Just call me Suo Suo.” The girl smiled and shook her head. “I only saw you, not anyone else.”

Only myself...

Yu Zhun frowned slightly.

If there are multiple people when the secret realm is broken, will they be randomly teleported to different places?
He had never experienced this before, so he was not sure.

But at this point, the most important thing is obvious.

That is to connect with other people.

Taking out the communication prop, Yu Zhun tried to sense the situation of the other people.

The next moment, his expression changed drastically.

The other four people were not within his perception.

This means that they are not in the same space.

calm down!

Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhun found the map of [Tianxu Holy Realm] and tried to determine his own location first.

But after checking the map in its entirety, Yu Zhun's movements suddenly froze.

Suosun said that he was found on the beach.

But there is no sea on the map of Tianxu Holy Realm.
