The journey extended all the way to the shore.

In just a few minutes, a bridge formed by Ocean Guardians appeared on the surface of the lake.

Ji Chen jumped into the water with a calm expression and walked towards the shore, stepping on the broad backs of the Ocean Guardians, his hands casually at his sides.

Sima Chuxi and the others were already in a state of endless shock.

What did they see?

The guards defending this place had actually formed a bridge, allowing the player to walk on their bodies?

This was impossible!!!

Weren’t these guards left behind by the gods?

He rubbed his eyes as if he couldn’t believe it and looked again.

In the distance, the man strolled along the “bridge”, while the rest of the Ocean Guardians stood at attention, as if they were looking at their master.

And he saw the deep eyes of that man.

In the next moment, his shock turned into fear and panic.

He had to leave immediately!

Otherwise, when that player arrived, he would die here!!

Without a moment’s hesitation, Sima Chuxi swiftly pivoted and led his army in a hasty retreat.

Knowing that preserving his own life was paramount, he understood that as long as he survived, he would have the opportunity to stage a comeback.

With the vast expanse of King Kong Island at his disposal, he found solace in the fact that once he managed to escape, he would be safely out of harm’s way. He didn’t believe that the player would search the entire island!

When Sima Chuxi’s lackeys saw their leader running away, they didn’t hesitate either. They fled with their armies in a dejected manner.

After running for a while, Sima Chuxi turned his head and looked back. He found that the player was still walking calmly, seemingly not interested in chasing him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, a sense of shame surged in his heart.

Along with the shame came waves of anger.

The face of that player was firmly engraved in his mind.

Sima Chuxi was ashamed that he was forced to retreat because of that man. He swore to seek revenge in the future!

“Captain! Look ahead!!!” a lackey’s voice came from his ear, filled with desperation.

Sima Chuxi looked ahead and his face turned pale in an instant. Fear once again surged within him.

Ahead… hundreds of Ruins Guardians were charging at them!!!

Like tanks, a large wave of Ruins Guardians rushed into their formation, their sturdy bodies knocking them aside, their huge fists turning them into minced meat, and their heavy footsteps crushing them into a pulp.

Like a fierce tiger entering a flock of sheep, they mercilessly slaughtered these weak creatures.

When Ji Chen arrived at the battlefield, he calmly strolled through the scene.

With only the Ruins Guardians remaining, their bodies adorned with severed limbs and pulverized flesh, the scene was devoid of any other living creatures standing upright.

The ground was littered with unrecognizable bodies.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen frowned slightly.

While he had merely commanded the Ruins Guardians to attack, he had not anticipated the extent of the resulting carnage and brutality.

After all, it would be undesirable if it frightened the innocent and vulnerable.

However, witnessing this spectacle, the soldiers and heroes in attendance displayed no signs of unease. They had witnessed even more thrilling scenes in the past, and the Dragon Blood Murlocs’ eyes gleamed with excitement, their mouths watering with anticipation.

Amongst these gruesome bodies, Ji Chen searched for a while before finally finding the three players.

They looked miserable, one with a crushed skull, another with a severely caved-in chest, probably killed by a punch, and the third had no visible injuries, but both legs were completely broken, either dying in pain or from excessive blood loss.

None of them had a good ending.

Ji Chen sighed at “them” and his face showed helplessness.

If you don’t court death, you won’t die.

Why did they have to fight and kill?

He considered himself a friendly person.

After all, they were all players, and under normal circumstances, there was no need to kill each other.

But should they initiate an attack against him, he would have no choice but to escort them on a one-way journey to heaven, where they could peacefully sip their tea.

He would forgive them this time, but they should pay more attention in their next life.

Ji Chen started collecting the spoils of these three players.

After searching, he harvested some worthless junk. Not a single item caught his eye.

These three were probably players from King Kong Island, but he didn’t know where their territory was. Ji Chen had no way to plunder their resources, so he waved his hand, letting the Ruins Guardians clean up the scene, while he returned to the lakeside.

He could find out through the Control Crystal.

At present, the Divine Realm was under the protection of both the Ruins Guardians and Ocean Guardians.

Even after his initial purge, approximately 800 Ruins Guardians remained standing.

In addition, the dormant Ocean Guardians within the lake numbered well over 2,000.

This formidable force ignited a sense of exhilaration within Ji Chen.

These were all Tier 3, 8-star and 9-star units!

Although they were just Alchemical Creations, their numbers were enough to overwhelm everything.

But unfortunately, they couldn’t be taken out of this Divine Realm.

[Guard Order (Purple Skill): Due to the rules of the gods and the program settings within the Alchemical Bodies, Ruins Guardians and Ocean Guardians cannot leave the Divine Realm or their territories. They cannot venture beyond a radius of twenty kilometers from their territories.]

Even so, they were more than enough to defend the territory.

With 800 Ruins Guardians, each standing at three meters tall, they could easily break through the frontlines of an entire legion.

And within the ocean, with 2,000 Ocean Guardians, they could form a tight defensive net.

Suddenly, Ji Chen thought of a problem.

Since they couldn’t leave this Divine Realm by themselves, how could he bring nearly 3,000 Alchemical Creations back to the New Moon Islands?

Should he carry them on his back?

He looked at the Ruins Guardians with their heavy, rock-like bodies and dismissed the idea.

Let alone carrying them, even if he had nine ships, they couldn’t transport these giants back. Besides, there were dozens of kilometers from here to the coast.

It would be impossible to move fifty of them at once, let alone all of them, with just his manpower. Ji Chen gave up the thought and immediately contacted the Control Crystal. As expected, he found a strange flash in the spiritual connection network.

This flash didn’t represent any Ruins Guardian or Ocean Guardian; it seemed to represent a certain location.

It was located to the west.

After making up his mind, he set out with a few heroes and squads.

Half an hour later, they arrived at the location represented by the flash.

It was an entrance to an underground space, but the entrance had collapsed.

Nevertheless, undeterred by the challenge, Ji Chen swiftly summoned fifty Ruins Guardians to the entrance, tasking them with removing the obstructing rocks. Among them, he instructed one to sit down, seeking respite in the shade of its robust legs, shielding himself from the sun’s rays.

The forty-nine Ruins Guardians worked like excavators, digging tirelessly. Soon, they cleared a hole in the collapsed entrance big enough for two people to enter. Ji Chen didn’t think too much and led a few heroes and squads inside.

As they entered the tunnel, the inside was brightly lit, with crystal lamps evenly spaced on both sides of the walls, illuminating the passage like daylight. Ji Chen looked slightly surprised.

These crystal lamps were interesting; they could still be lit after so many years.

He made a mental note to take them with him when they left. The Crown of the Ocean currently relied on torches and candles for illumination.

Walking along the passage towards the depths of the underground, after descending about fifty meters, they reached a spacious area.

It resembled a laboratory, filled with various strange instruments and alchemical machinery.

But due to the passage of time, they had mostly malfunctioned and decayed, crumbling to dust at the slightest touch.

“Spread out and search here, find anything valuable.”

With a command, the army dispersed and began searching everywhere.

Searching for valuable items was simple.

If it turned to dust with a touch, it was worthless. If it didn’t, it was valuable.

Anything that could survive for such a long time was undoubtedly a treasure.

Unfortunately, as item after item turned to dust, nothing good appeared.

Just as Ji Chen was feeling a little disappointed, Alice’s pleasant voice sounded. “My Lord, I found something!”
