Cao Ya only glanced at it and then paid no more attention. Anyone who started a fight at this point was too reckless.

We've only seen the Kunpeng's nest, but haven't been able to go inside yet.

Beside him, Shi Hao also seemed somewhat excited, gazing into the distance.

Cao Ya also looked over and couldn't help but marvel.

A massive, barren cliff lies deep in the sea, even more magnificent than the ancient sacred mountain. It rises above the sea, and on the cliff face is an ancient bird's nest, simple and unadorned, without any runes or divine light.

However, wisps of chaotic energy continued to fall, creating a terrifying scene!

The ruins of Kunpeng, one of the Ten Ancient Fiends, have appeared, lying across the front. The breathtaking sight is astonishing and makes people tremble!

A barren cliff stands majestically on the sea, upon which the Kunpeng Nest is built. It has existed since ancient times and remains hidden in the vast ocean, its unparalleled power unseen by anyone.

“Female Kunpeng…” Cao Ya murmured, with a sigh.

Shi Hao heard Cao Ya's low sigh and felt confused and shocked. A rogue cultivator knows about the Primordial Kunpeng Divine Nest? Probably very few people in the world know that the Kunpeng is female. This is the first time Shi Hao has heard of this.

"They haven't even gone inside yet, how come they've already started fighting?" Shi Hao was also surprised as he watched the cultivators engaged in a fierce battle.

The sea turned red, filled with numerous corpses of various races. Shouts of battle shook the heavens as the supreme Kunpeng technique was about to be unleashed, drawing together elites from all races.

Cao Ya's eyes suddenly lit up as he saw a bluebird flapping its wings and flying, a strong wind blowing in his face, causing the blue waves to ripple.

"Lightning Hound, how dare you kill my offspring?" the bluebird roared. It was a descendant of the divine bird Azure Phoenix, a species that could be considered an ancient remnant. At this moment, it spread its wings from the sky, its whole body shining brightly. When it swooped down, the vast ocean surged, the blue waves rose to the sky, and the water boiled, which showed its power and terror.

Nearby, a giant, glowing dog moved with lightning speed, crashing through the sea and killing one Azure Phoenix descendant after another, refining their essence and blood to replenish its own needs.

Cao Ya smiled calmly and said:

"Of course, there's no such thing as fighting without a reason. If one can get what they want outside the Kunpeng's nest, who would want to risk entering the Kunpeng's nest?"

As he spoke, his brows furrowed slightly. In the forbidden sea, special fluctuations would occasionally appear, suppressing all those above the Spirit Transformation Realm, forcing them to perform the same actions and unleash the same precious technique, but requiring them to expend more divine power.

Cao Ya sighed inwardly. Even experts who had surpassed the Spirit Transformation Realm would find it extremely difficult to enter and would need to replenish a massive amount of their essence, energy, and spirit.

"Everyone is naturally envious of the treasures left behind by Kunpeng, but many people also know that they can only pick up a few scraps at most. Occasionally, they may encounter a powerful person who is injured after a battle and be able to fight across realms, go against the tide, and obtain his inherited treasures, divine weapons, etc."

Cao Ya glanced around, his tone flat:

"Everyone desires the Kunpeng Treasure Technique, but how many can truly keep it? Those who appear here are mostly from ancient sects and ancient sacred mountains, and even the rogue cultivators have their own opportunities."

Who would complain about having too many good things in their life?

Finally, Cao Ya smiled:

"Of course, if we can really enter the Kunpeng Divine Nest and obtain some treasures, and not just the very special kind, and attract the attention of the powerful, then that would be something to be very happy about."

Shi Hao nodded thoughtfully. Although he had experienced many things and encountered many things after leaving Shi Village, Shi Hao also understood that compared with Cao Ya, the Great Wilderness Hermit, his current experience was still not enough.

Which of these Venerable Ones in the Desolate Region is simple?

Suddenly.

Cao Ya's expression changed.

Deep in the ocean, it seemed as if a gigantic life form was breathing, unparalleled, resonating with the entire world, rising and falling, with ripples spreading across the void.

"Oh no, they're here again!" the many creatures cried out.

Ordinary cultivators were fine, but those who had surpassed the Spirit Transformation stage all changed color, rushed up at lightning speed, and left the battlefield, wanting to find a quiet place and occupy advantageous terrain.

This fluctuation is a form of suppression, forcefully knocking them down from a higher realm, preventing them from surpassing the Spirit Transformation Realm. This is extremely dangerous for these powerful individuals.

Sure enough, some experts who had originally surpassed the Spirit Transformation realm were attacked after being suppressed by the fluctuations. A group of sea demons appeared, leaped into the sky, chased after the experts in the valley, and killed them.

Pfft~~~~~

The large blue bird and the lightning hound were both killed. They were besieged by thousands of sea demons, and the ants killed the elephant. They were killed in mid-air, their blood dripping.

The same thing happened on all sides, turning the sea crimson, with corpses floating on the surface, a truly gruesome sight.

Cao Ya was also suppressed by the fluctuations, falling from the Venerable Realm all the way down to the Spirit Transformation Realm.

But he didn't seem too nervous.

Shi Hao watched with great curiosity and couldn't help but ask.

Cao Ya had also visited Shi Village and, while conversing with Liu Shen, taught Shi Village for a period of time. Therefore, from a certain perspective, Cao Ya could be considered an unofficial teacher of Shi Hao.

Moreover, Cao Ya fully understands Shi Hao and is connected to Shi Village, which is the place Shi Hao cherishes. The people in the village all respect Cao Ya.

Therefore, Shi Hao couldn't help but feel a sense of trust and reliance on Cao Ya. Although he was not as good as Liu Shen, he was only inferior to Liu Shen.

Especially after Shi Hao left the Great Wilderness, the Thunder Spirit Treasure Technique taught by Cao Ya in places like Butian Pavilion, Baiduan Mountain, and Tianshen Mountain helped Shi Hao a lot, and he was particularly grateful.

The Thunder Spirit Treasure Technique is the fundamental treasure technique of the Thunder Spirit Clan. The Thunder Spirit Clan can continuously evolve, and eventually they may even become the Thunder Emperor among the Ten Ancient Fiends. The power and terror of the Thunder Spirit Treasure Technique can be glimpsed from this example.

So when facing Cao Ya, Shi Hao let go of his tense nerves and genuinely felt relaxed.

He was furious and became even more vigilant because the ancient divine mountain descendant who was traveling with him had almost been robbed.

Cao Ya had intended to give a somewhat ambiguous answer to Shi Hao's question, since there were many things in this world that could not be said.

Seeing the sea demons charging towards them, seemingly unafraid of the ghost ship, Cao Ya laughed loudly, jumped out of the ghost ship, and stepped forward. With a single hand, divine power surged like a raging tide, lightning raged, and accompanied by barely visible flames leaping about. With a thunderous roar, he instantly annihilated the hundreds of sea demons.

This is an absolutely astonishing scene.

Cultivators below the Spirit Transformation Realm and experts above the Spirit Transformation Realm were all terrified and shocked.

It should be noted that the suppression from the Kunpeng Divine Nest has not yet subsided.

Faced with a massive number of sea demons, even a Venerable Realm expert had no choice but to retreat in frustration, his face dark with anger.

"That's... Cao Ya, the Hermit of the Great Wilderness!" Someone recognized Cao Ya; he was quite famous.

Immediately, many living beings became confused.

"Why is that suppression ineffective against him?"

"No! It's still effective. Otherwise, if the Venerable One had made a move, it wouldn't have been just a few hundred sea demons that would have been wiped out in one strike."

"But it seems the effect isn't very significant. Is it because Cao Taiyang, the Great Wilderness Hermit, is too strong?"

One of the cultivators suddenly narrowed his eyes and exclaimed:

"Could it be... that he has already become a god?!"
