We agreed to set sail, so you'd become the ruler of the deep sea?

Chapter 507 [The New Sea Realm]

Lattiwen nodded in agreement.

"The Holy Light of the [Radiant Church] can purify corruption, and I am willing to stay and assist in the purification work."

Upon hearing this, Heller chuckled sinisterly.

"Heh heh, your purpose isn't just that, is it?"

“Once this Seven Seas World regains its vitality and order, there will definitely be many more potential believers.”

"By then, the [Hui Cult] will be able to establish itself in this world ahead of time, right?"

Latiwen, however, remained quite composed about the situation.

“That’s right, I also plan to spread the teachings of the Hui Cult in this Seven Seas World.”

"But what's the problem with that?"

“It has always been my mission to guide people to follow the light.”

"Besides, don't you want the people of this Seven Seas World to have faith in the Dark Lord?"

Heller narrowed his eyes and let out a low laugh: "Heh, you're right."

"However, the [Deepest Sect] doesn't like to show its face like your [Radiant Sect]."

"We prefer to develop followers in secret."

Latty frowned, but ultimately said nothing more.

Xia En interrupted their conversation at the opportune moment: "In any case, purifying this world is the top priority."

"I will contact the Federation and request that they send more purification teams."

As for missionary work

He looked at the two of them, his tone serious: "This must be done without affecting the reconstruction of the world."

Lattywen and Heller both nodded in agreement.

Just then, Vivian suddenly pointed to the distant sea.

Look!

Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing and saw countless sparkling points of light floating on the sea.

These points of light rose slowly like fireflies, shimmering faintly in the sunlight.

It looks absolutely gorgeous.

"This is."

Xia En stretched out his hand, and a speck of light landed in his palm.

In an instant, a warm feeling spread throughout my body.

To his surprise, he discovered that his depleted secret energy was rapidly recovering!
"This is a return from the origin of the world!"

Yan Yan's voice was filled with surprise: "The world is thanking us!"

More points of light drifted towards the Black Swan and merged into everyone's body.

Joey exclaimed excitedly, "My secret powers are fully restored!"

"No...it's more than that!"

Joey quickly and keenly noticed that her control over [Secret Power], and even her mastery of the laws, had significantly improved.

Obviously.

The gift of the World's Will is an extremely precious gift for most Secret Path seekers.

Shaun's crew might be able to use this opportunity to break through to a higher rank.

Even Xia En felt that he was one step closer to the realm above the ninth rank.

String Song also felt the dragon blood within her body become purer, and a new power surged within her.

"That's amazing!"

Lattywen and Heller also benefited greatly.

The cracks on Latiwen's holy sword repaired themselves automatically, radiating a more dazzling light than before;

Heller felt his connection with the Deep Lord becoming even stronger.

Xia En felt the surging power within him, his gaze resolute.

"In that case, we must not let the world down."

"Let's begin the purification process now!"

……

……

in the coming days.

The crew of the Black Swan, along with Lattywen and Heller, began purifying the world.

Latiwen used the Holy Light arcane arts of the [Radiant Cult] to dispel the widespread corruption;
Heller, on the other hand, manipulates the power of the deep to devour the corruption deep within.

at the same time.

Joey summoned a storm, which dispersed the corrupted clouds in the sky;
The stringed song spewed dragon breath, burning the decaying fungal carpet on each island;
Vivian then used her unique sense of corruption to guide the group to the area most severely corrupted.

Shane was responsible for overseeing the overall situation and dealing with those particularly stubborn corrupt nodes.

Among them were even clones of the Corrupted Apostle that had not yet been completely extinguished.

Thanks to everyone's combined efforts, the world is recovering much faster than expected.

The corrupted seawater gradually became clear, and the sky regained its azure blue color.

Some resilient plants began to sprout from the soil, adding a touch of green to the barren land.

Not only that.

Shane also made contact with the Federation through a special communication device.

Upon learning of the destruction of the Corrupted Apostles, the Federation's top leadership was greatly encouraged.

While they were wiping out the remaining members of the Black Tide Cult in the Seven Seas World, they also sent elite purification troops to provide support.

only.

Transporting goods across two worlds is ultimately no simple matter.

About two weeks later.

When the Federation fleet arrived, nearly 30% of the world had been restored.

Seeing this, General Moritz exclaimed, "Shane, you have created a miracle."

"As expected of the man who defeated the [Great Sin Apostle]."

Xia En shook his head: "This isn't solely my achievement."

"Without everyone's help and without the response of the world's will, we could not have succeeded."

Moritz patted him on the shoulder.

"Regardless, you saved two worlds."

"The Federation has decided to name this world 'New Sea Frontier' and establish a permanent outpost here."

"Of course, the legitimate missionary rights of the [Radiant Sect] and the [Profound Sect] will also be guaranteed."

Upon hearing this news, both Lattywen and Heller showed expressions of satisfaction.

in the coming days.

Federal engineering teams began building infrastructure in the new sea boundary.

The [Radiant Sect] and the [Deepest Sect] also established their own temples.

It's only a matter of time before the corruption within the New Sea Realm is completely eradicated and the entire world recovers.

in this period.

Shaen, along with his crew, continued their purification journey.

This is to eliminate the remaining [Corruption Secret Power].

It was also a gift from the World Will that allowed him and his crew to digest.

as predicted.

During this journey, Joey and Vivian both completed their advancements and became eighth-tier Mystic Pathfinders.

Joey's mastery of [Storm Authority] has reached a new level.

Vivian, on the other hand, received more gifts from the World Consciousness because she was a true native of this New Sea Realm.

That's how they were able to achieve breakthroughs in such a short time.

Meanwhile, Shane's strength is also constantly improving.

His experience of integrating the three divine aspects deepened his understanding of the laws.

One night.

When the Black Swan was anchored in a freshly cleaned bay.

Shaen's gaze lingered on his own control panel.

[Overall Quality: 225!]

[Title: Lord of the Rhine (Legendary - 2.3)!]

Captain of the Black Swan (Legendary Level - 5)!

【所掌握法则：虚空（78%）；死亡（12%）；生命（15%）；寂灭（7%）；海洋（10%）；时空（36%）；龙（8%）；鲜血（15%）；智械（8%）】

[Dominator (25%)]

The [Sovereign Law] is an existence that transcends all other laws.

With a mastery level of 25%, Xia En had already touched upon a boundary beyond the ninth rank. He stood on the ship's railing, gazing at the twinkling stars in the night sky, feeling the surging power flowing within him.

“What are you thinking about?”

Yan Yan's flaming phantom appeared beside him.

Xia En said softly, "I'm thinking about [Hui Si Ming]."

"I once faced the Filthy Fate directly in the Secret Sea."

"To be honest, even though I am now at the ninth level, I still have no confidence in defeating Him."

"If one day, He will personally descend."

Yan Yan was silent for a moment: "That day will come sooner or later."

"But by then, you will definitely be stronger."

Xia En turned to Yan Yan: "And you? When are you planning to reshape your body?"

Yan Yan smiled: "Soon."

"The formation of the new sea boundary has made me realize some new possibilities."

"Perhaps... I can try a completely new form of existence."

"That's good."

Xia En smiled and said, "I look forward to the day when we can fight side by side again."

"Captain Shane!"

Just then, a clear, crisp sound came from not far away.

Yan Yan said with a hint of sarcasm, "It seems I need to leave for now."

Before he could finish speaking, Yan Yan's phantom image vanished into thin air.

Xia En's lips twitched.

How could the innocent Yan Yan make such a joke?
He turned his head and saw Vivian, with her heterochromatic eyes, walking towards him from not far away.

The girl, who looked exactly like Lyra, had a slightly brighter eye, revealing a complex yet obvious emotion.

Vivian walked up to Xia En and spoke solemnly.

"Thank you, Captain Shane."

Xia En naturally knew why Vivian thanked him.

Vivian's world was corrupted by the Corruption Apostles, and almost everyone died in that catastrophe.

The whole world has fallen into a state of desolation and barrenness.

Vivian thus became the so-called "Witch of Annihilation," reduced to a pitiful ghost.

If it weren't for the call from Lyra in another world.

Vivian has long since vanished completely.

Now, thanks to the efforts of Shane and others, the Corrupted Apostles have been completely eliminated, and the New Sea Realm is gradually recovering.

A glimmer of light appeared in Vivian's eyes as she spoke softly.

"Without you, this world might never have been able to escape the shadow of corruption."

Xia En smiled gently.

"This is all thanks to us, and it's what I should do."

Vivian shook her head, her heterochromatic eyes reflecting starlight.

"No, only you can do all of this."

She took a step forward, the sea breeze blowing through her long hair, her voice so soft it almost disappeared in the wind.

"Actually... I've always had a question I wanted to ask you."

Xia En stared at her: "What's the problem?"

"if……"

Vivian's fingers twisted together unconsciously.

"If I weren't Lyra's shadow, if I were just...myself, how would you see me?"

The question came suddenly, and Xia En was slightly taken aback.

Only then did he realize.

Vivian probably had some complicated thoughts in her mind.

After all, Shane met Lyra first.

Vivian was ultimately just another Lyra from the Seven Seas World.

The two also have many differences in personality.

As someone who almost became the Elf Queen, Lyra's character is more resilient and courageous.

Vivian, having experienced the destruction of the world, was even more sensitive and vulnerable.

Seeing that Xia En did not answer immediately, a hint of disappointment flashed in Vivian's eyes.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked that."

She forced a smile, then turned to leave.

"and many more."

Xia En called her back and said seriously, "Vivian, you are you, not anyone's shadow."

"In my eyes, you are a brave and strong girl."

"You, like Leila and Ann, are all independent individuals, just three similar flowers in the world."

"Even without Lyra, I will still admire you and trust you."

Vivian's body trembled slightly, and when she turned around, her eyes were already filled with tears.

"really?"

"of course."

Xia En smiled gently, "Moreover, I believe the people of the New Sea Realm will remember your name—Vivian, the world-saving [Witch of Annihilation]."

Upon hearing this, Vivian finally stopped crying and started smiling.

"Thank you, Captain Shane."

She wiped away her tears, then suddenly stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Xia En on the cheek.

"This is a thank you gift!"

After saying that, she ran away like a startled deer, leaving Xia En standing there dumbfounded.

"It's great to be young."

Yan Yan's voice echoed softly, and the phantom of flames reappeared.

Xia En gave him a helpless look: "When did you learn to peek?"

"I didn't peek, I just happened to come back."

Yan Yan teased, "However, it seems our captain has quite the charm."

Xia En's lips twitched.

"Don't push me. I know everything about your story with Anbing!"

Yan Yan immediately shut his mouth obediently.

Then, he changed the subject and asked...

"Where are you going next?"

Xia En raised his head, looked at the sky above the New Sea Realm, and said.

"Once things are settled in the New Sea Frontier, it will be time for me to set off again."

"The Fragment of God I obtained in the Mechanized Territory last time can pinpoint Lyra's current location."

"However, I have a feeling that this journey will be more dangerous than any of the previous ones."

Yan Yan began, "Me too..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xia En interrupted him.

"In your current state, even if you board the Black Swan, you'll only be a burden."

"Let's talk about it when you've reconstructed your physical body."

"Besides, are you really willing to let Dark Ice accompany you on this adventure?"

Yan Yan's illusory flames swayed slightly, as if Xia En's words had touched a nerve.

That's how married men are.

People without a family or a wife can take risks at will.

But once these constraints are in place, it's like being tied down, with many more concerns.

Even a man like the Lord of Cinder is no exception.

Of course, Yan Yan also knew that Xia En's words were meant to discourage him from participating in this dangerous journey.

Yan Yan remained silent for a moment, then finally sighed.

"You're right... I really can't be of much help right now."

Xia En patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'll wait for you to come back."

Yan Yan nodded, a hint of determination shining through his flames.

"Once I rebuild my physical body, I will definitely come to find you."
