Martial Master

As Qin Chen's words fell, they indeed attracted the attention of Lu Zian and others, who frowned and said, "Brother Chen is right. Feng Jian Master, how come you are completely unaffected by that shadow? I remember you didn't have time to enter the Spatial Seal back then, right?"

Feng Kang'an shook his head, revealing a look of fear as he said, "Back then, I was also possessed by that shadow. However, as a swordsman, my will is most firm, so I had a brief moment of clarity. During that moment, I used the 'Illuminating Fire' I once obtained to burn my body completely, which is how I managed to kill that shadow. I suppose that shadow fears fire the most."

Qin Chen was somewhat surprised, not expecting Feng Kang'an to possess Illuminating Fire. Although it was only Earth-level fire, it ranked fourth on the Earth Fire Ranking, undoubtedly an extremely extraordinary flame.

"Then why is Brother Feng here?" Lu Zian frowned again and asked.

"Hehe, I was also tracking one of the shadows here and didn't expect to encounter a few of you," Feng Kang'an smiled and said, then looked at Qin Chen and asked, "Young brother, did you realize I was here because I showed a slight emotional fluctuation upon seeing you?"

Qin Chen gave a faint smile but did not respond. He discovered two reasons why he sensed Feng Kang'an: the first was his extremely strong soul power, which allowed him to perceive something was off about Feng Kang'an's location; the second reason was that he sensed a hint of danger.

Only when someone harbored malicious intent towards him would he feel danger, so Qin Chen was somewhat skeptical of Feng Kang'an's words. It was precisely because Feng Kang'an had harbored killing intent towards him that he felt it. Even if Feng Kang'an's killing intent was well concealed and faint, Qin Chen could still perceive it.

As for why the other party would harbor killing intent against him, Qin Chen still couldn't figure it out. Logically, since the other party knew it was dangerous here, upon seeing companions from Tianlei City approaching, they should have felt excited or thrilled instead of harboring killing intent—unless they discovered something.

Spatial Seal!

As this thought emerged, Qin Chen immediately speculated, so he ignored Feng Kang'an and threw a punch towards the seemingly strange space ahead.

After Qin Chen unleashed his punch, it immediately created large shadows of fists, like waves crashing onto that area. If it were a normal area of the Thunder Sea, Qin Chen's punch would push outward like waves, but this time it felt like hitting an invisible reef and immediately halted his advance. At the same time, a series of spatial ripples emerged before everyone, revealing a huge light shadow that was flickering in and out.

As expected, it was a seal. Qin Chen then punched again with a loud boom, and the force of his punch surged forward, making the light shadow even clearer, quickly revealing most of its form. Within that light shadow, as Ge Hongsen had said, there were indeed chunks of crystal embedded. The crystals were densely arranged within the light shadow, incredibly beautiful, and deep within the light shadow, there was an ancient palace that appeared to be veiled in mystery, as if it were a hidden treasure chamber.

The arrangement of crystals sparkled with brilliant light, and even though the aura of the crystals could not be felt through the spatial seal, it was evident from their appearance that these crystals were definitely not ordinary, far surpassing all the top-quality true stones found in Tianwu Continent; they were undoubtedly something of a higher grade.

"The Spatial Seal is indeed here," Lu Zian and the others immediately became excited. Now that the experts from their various forces had entered the Spatial Seal, only they had not yet gone in, making them exceedingly anxious.

Qin Chen, as a Master of Array, upon seeing this Spatial Seal, understood why Wei Ziyang could deduce its location. This Spatial Seal indeed sealed off a portion of heaven and earth, and it even possessed autonomous protection functions. Once it suffered significant damage, it would immediately relocate. However, this relocation was regulated; as long as one could see through the array's structure, they could calculate its next general location.
