At this moment, he had also changed drastically, transforming into a height of several dozen feet.
His indigo hair had turned into flowing water braids, with each strand of hair wrapped around tiny water dragons.
From head to toe, he was covered in hexagonal cyan-gold scales. A fist-sized Deep Sea Cold Crystal was embedded in his chest, emitting a bone-chilling cold.
His arms had transformed into merman shark fins, and half-foot-long bone blades grew from his knuckles.
As for his right arm, it had completely merged with the Sea-Splitting Spear, becoming a bone spear covered in dragon scales. The spear body was densely covered with spiral runes, and the spear tip spat out a dark cyan and black eerie glow, making one's blood run cold.
"Deep Blue Profound Meaning - Primordial Crystal Manifestation!"
A sinister grin appeared on Lor's lips, and he thrust his right-hand Dragon Spear forward.
A bright light surged from the spear tip, then exploded into thousands of spear lights that scattered everywhere. With just a flash of spiritual light, they all transformed into triangular Crystal Scales.
Lor thrust his spear again, and a powerful spear energy shot out, colliding with a nearby Crystal Scale. It then refracted back and forth among these thousands of Crystal Scales at an unimaginable speed.
As it continued to refract, the power emitted by this spear energy grew stronger and stronger.
Lor's right hand had already completely blurred, and streams of spear energy continuously shot out, all falling into these Crystal Scales.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of spear energies poured down like a torrential rain from these Crystal Scales, shooting towards Ning Fa.
The power of each spear energy was enough to make ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators change their expressions.
However, Ning Fa, whose face was flickering with lightning, merely curled his lips, making no other move.
Behind him, the Thunder Pattern Light Wheel suddenly began to spin rapidly. In an instant, a wave of Thunder Pattern Light Waves shot out, sweeping towards the incoming spear energy.
Under this Thunder Pattern Light Wave, these powerful spear energies instantly vanished as if ice and snow melting.
But just then, about a foot behind Ning Fa, a spear light flashed, and Lor's figure appeared strangely.
His eyes were filled with bloodlust, and he raised his right-hand Dragon Spear high, stabbing towards Ning Fa's back with a speed akin to teleportation.
However, Ning Fa suddenly turned around strangely, as if he had been facing this direction all along. His two eyes, like lightning vortexes, each shot out a Mysterious Lightning.
These two beams of lightning rotated at extreme speeds in opposite directions, and countless mysterious Thunder Runes flickered within them, intermingling and enveloping Lor, who was only a few feet away from Ning Fa.
Under this mysterious lightning, Lor instantly felt as if he were immobilized, his speed greatly reduced.
An irrepressible look of fear appeared in his originally bloodthirsty eyes. He raised his left hand as if to perform some Hand Seal, but his movements were as slow as a snail.
At this moment, a roar like thunder erupted from Ning Fa's mouth.
He opened his right hand, and with five-colored lightning flickering, the Heaven-Shattering Sword appeared.
The surface of this sword emitted a brilliant white-gold lightning, and the surrounding heaven and earth energy immediately boiled. Countless gold-element spiritual energies converged towards it, pouring into the sword.
In the blink of an eye, the Heaven-Shattering Sword had grown to over ten feet in size, its power reaching a terrifying level.
Ning Fa held the sword in his right hand and slashed out fiercely.
Instantly, the Heaven-Shattering Sword transformed into a dazzling rainbow, emitting an extremely sharp aura, slashing towards the nearby Lor.
A look of madness appeared in Lor's eyes, and he suddenly opened his mouth and uttered a syllable.
The hexagonal cyan-gold scales on his body suddenly flew off, instantly interweaving to form a special rhombic crystal shield.
The entire shield shimmered with flowing light, possessing a heavy, mountain-like aura.
The next moment, the Heaven-Shattering Sword struck the crystal shield.
This seemingly indestructible crystal shield only lasted for half a breath before it exploded into pieces.
The violent lightning sword energy erupted, engulfing Lor within it.
A cyan light shot out from within, instantly transforming into several beams of light that flew towards the Crystal Scales suspended in the air. With a flash, they disappeared into them.
But with a clear sword cry, the Heaven-Shattering Sword energy, still possessing its power, also transformed into thousands of lightning sword threads.
They emitted a heart-palpitating faint glow, and an indestructible, sharp Sword Intent radiated from these faint glows, which was precisely the True Meaning of the Sword Dao.
The next moment, a series of explosions could be heard. The suspended Crystal Scales shattered under the power of these extremely sharp sword threads, emitting bursts of dazzling spiritual energy light.
Ning Fa sneered, and his Hand Seal changed again. He was about to take advantage of this opportunity to set up the Calamity Heaven Sword Array and completely annihilate this formidable Sea Race commander.
But at this moment, he suddenly turned to look below.
He saw that within the crystal golden pyramid below, the mysterious patterns had been completely illuminated.
At the tip of the pyramid, the strange Deep Blue Crystal emitted a brilliant light. An indescribable Water Element Power erupted from it, making even Ning Fa feel an unstoppable force.
At this moment, the previously faint sound of waves had already resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
The next moment, countless deep blue light beams shot out from this blue crystal.
The wind and clouds changed.
Within a radius of a hundred miles in the sky, countless deep blue light clusters suddenly appeared. As they churned, they formed deep blue vortices, and the sound of violently surging waves emanated from these vortices.
With the sound of violent splashing water, the next moment, countless deep blue seawater poured down from these vortices, like an ocean overturned upon this world.
The battles raging in the sky immediately halted. The great cultivators on the Cangyuan side all had looks of terror on their faces.
On the other hand, the cultivators from Tianli, the Sea Race, and the Rakshasa Immortal Realm wore cold smiles. Now that the Heart of the Ancestral Sea of the Sea Race had been successfully activated, the breaking of this fifth-grade Grand Extermination Immortal Array was only a matter of time.
Without the assistance of the fifth-grade array, even if Ning Fa appeared, he would be no match for their side.
In just over ten breaths, an immeasurable amount of seawater poured out from the vast deep blue vortex, forming an unfathomable ocean that firmly trapped the magnificent Zhenyou City within, turning it into an underwater city.
The deep, dark seawater, carrying immense power, crashed against the barrier light shield on Zhenyou City's surface.
On the city walls, numerous Cangyuan cultivators wore expressions of sheer terror and despair.
At the same time, a thunderous roar of cheers erupted.
The Sea Race cultivators, moving as if in their element within this ocean, found their injuries recovering at a visibly rapid pace. Even their spiritual pressure was slowly strengthening.
Ning Fa, now transformed into the Divine Firmament Manifestation, his eyes like lightning, suddenly spun rapidly.
He finally understood what these deep blue crystals were.
They were, in fact, the Heart of the Ancestral Sea of the Sea Race!
Legend had it that the Heart of the Ancestral Sea was a gift from the Ancestral Sea to the Sea Race, extremely precious and possessing infinite wondrous uses.
One of its most widely known uses was to unleash the Abyssal Sea with the Heart of the Ancestral Sea.
Just like this, transforming a certain area into the Abyssal Sea.
Within this Abyssal Sea, all Sea Race cultivators could receive significant buffs; not only would their physical injuries recover quickly, but the strength of Sea Race members below Fourth-grade could generally be elevated by a minor tier.
Legend claimed its capabilities extended beyond this; it possessed formidable offensive methods against some of the human race's high-grade defensive arrays.
It was precisely because of this that during the long history of wars between the humans of the Nine Dragons Sea, especially the Heavenly Evolution Sect, and the Sea Race, many important cities were breached after the Sea Race used the Heart of the Ancestral Sea to activate the Abyssal Sea, resulting in crushing defeats.
However, correspondingly, the Heart of the Ancestral Sea was also extremely precious, and the Sea Race would not use it lightly.
Ning Fa never expected that the Sea Race would be willing to use the Heart of the Ancestral Sea on Cangyuan.
Just then, Hathaway, a seasoned council member of the Sea Race, curled a smile of unrestrained delight onto her noble and cold face.
In her right hand, she held a deep blue crystal scepter, its top adorned with a crystal bead that shone brilliantly, runes flashing.
Hathaway raised her right hand high and abruptly swung her scepter forward. Instantly, a peculiar crystalline light shot out from the scepter, quickly spreading throughout the entire Abyssal Sea.
The next moment, strange whale songs echoed.
Within the Abyssal Sea, colossal dark silhouettes began to emerge, revealing themselves to be Azure Giant Whales, each tens of feet long.
These whales had a single horn on their heads, exuding an ancient, wild aura. With each whale song, their tails flicked rapidly, charging towards Zhenyou City in the Abyssal Sea from all directions.
At this moment, Zhenyou City emitted a sound like the earth shaking and mountains quaking. Amidst the intense humming, the outer barrier light shield blazed with radiance.
Clearly, the Grand Extermination Immortal Array had been stimulated to its absolute limit.
Following this, countless beams of radiance shot towards the surging giant whales.
The giant whales, seemingly without any means of resistance, were struck by these rays of light and their bodies exploded. However, they did not dissipate, instead, they took the opportunity to split into many smaller Demonic Whales.
Amidst the rising and falling whale songs, these Demonic Whales crashed into the barrier light shield formed by the Grand Extermination Immortal Array.
With violent explosive sounds, these Demonic Whales transformed into clusters of azure light, attaching themselves to the gray light screen.
From afar, Zhenyou City appeared to be eroded by streaks of azure light spots, and the entire array began to shake violently.
Following this, with a strange whistling sound.
A layer of radiance, in the blink of an eye, permeated the entire light screen.
A terrifying power that even Nascent Soul cultivators would find daunting erupted from this radiance.
After the anomaly dissipated, the azure light spots on Zhenyou City's light screen had vanished entirely. Even the nearby enemies had been annihilated by this terrifying radiance impact.
On Zhenyou City's walls, the Cangyuan cultivators erupted in cheers again, but the high-grade cultivators wore expressions of deep worry.
They knew all too well that the terrifying attack just now was achieved by pushing the Grand Extermination Immortal Array's potential to its limits, and it could not be used many times.
As long as the opposite side launched a few more such Demonic Whale attacks, this Fifth-grade array would likely not hold.
However, the worst-case scenario they had anticipated was about to unfold.
Another whale song echoed, and massive dark silhouettes slowly took shape in the Abyssal Sea, swimming towards Zhenyou City with mournful cries.
