The situation had changed.
The power of the river of the undead, this light barrier before him, was actually the power of the river of the undead. How could this be possible? His expression was one of pure shock, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Ten Thousand Bones Underworld Ancestor couldn't help but furrow his brow in confusion, "Great Emperor, the power of the river of the undead is just that. We have seen many projections of the river of the undead before; there’s nothing to be alarmed about, right?"
The other masters of the forbidden zone also looked over in confusion.
The reaction of the Emperor of the Underworld was indeed somewhat excessive.
"You don’t understand anything." The Emperor of the Underworld turned to glare at Ten Thousand Bones Underworld Ancestor and scolded angrily, "What we saw earlier was just a projection of the river of the undead. The so-called projection is the power of the river of the undead projected into the Netherworld, but this light barrier before us is the true power of the river of the undead. It is the water from the river of the undead that has been drawn here to form this barrier. How can it be compared?"
The Emperor of the Underworld looked up, his eyes filled with horror, "No wonder I was wondering what power in this world could shield the forces at the core of the Eternal Calamity Sea. If it’s the power of the river of the undead, then everything makes sense."
The river of the undead was the mother river of the Netherworld, and its power was strong enough to isolate most of the forces in the Netherworld.
"But who set this power of the river of the undead here? With the capability of the river of the undead, no one can draw it. Even we, the emperors of the four extremes, can only pull some power from the river of the undead but cannot bring it to this Netherworld. Who did this?"
The Emperor of the Underworld's expression changed repeatedly, his gaze fluctuating, and for a moment, his mind was a bit chaotic.
"The power of the river of the undead?"
At this moment, Qin Chen was also looking at the light barrier of the river of the undead, his eyes flickering.
This light barrier was extremely thin and appeared unremarkable, but from it, Qin Chen felt an extremely terrifying power; it was so strong that even he felt a slight tremor of fear.
Moreover, this power completely cut off the internal forces of the Eternal Calamity Sea. Standing on this side of the light barrier, Qin Chen could not sense even a hint of power from within the Eternal Calamity Sea.
"No wonder Sisi was unable to draw the power at the core of the Eternal Calamity Sea earlier. With this barrier in place, the forces within the Eternal Calamity Sea in an unowned state cannot break through."
Qin Chen's eyes flashed.
What puzzled him even more was that when he stood before this light barrier of the river of the undead, he vaguely sensed a very familiar power within this barrier for some reason.
"What power is this?" Qin Chen frowned, narrowing his eyes.
With his current strength, if he did not physically touch this light barrier of the river of the undead, he was afraid he would not be able to identify this power. But now, Qin Chen dared not act recklessly, because no one knew who had set up this light barrier of the river of the undead. If he alarmed the one who arranged it, then...
Thinking of this, Qin Chen suddenly turned his head and looked directly at Xiao Xiao in the Chaotic World.
Xiao Xiao had been the spirit of the river of the undead; perhaps she could discern something.
"Xiao Xiao, can you sense what’s going on with this light barrier of the river of the undead?" Qin Chen asked.
Xiao Xiao blinked her large, dark eyes and looked carefully for a moment. After a brief hesitation, she said, "Big brother, it seems that this light barrier has been fixed here by some other power."
"Other power?"
"Yes." Xiao Xiao nodded, "This power seems to be trying to merge with the power of the river of the undead, but it hasn’t completely succeeded yet. However, as time goes on, it might succeed."
