The man's figure was hidden beneath a red robe, his face covered by a black cloth, revealing only a pair of hawk-like eyes, his gray pupils filled with a suffocating indifference.

The man stepped forward, his voice chilling, as if from the deepest hell: "Seventh Princess, hand over the Heart of the Vast Ocean, and we will let you go..."

"Late stage of the Void Soul Realm..." The white-haired woman narrowed her eyes, her face as cold as frost: "You dare to plot against my clan's sacred artifact in the North Sea Realm? Do you really think my North Sea Dragon Clan is easy to bully?"

The man shook his head: "If I wasn't confident, how could I dare to make a move here... Seventh Princess, don't delay any longer. If you don't hand it over, don't blame us for being ruthless..."

At this moment, the five figures chasing behind also revealed themselves, some male and some female, forming an encirclement and sealing off all of the Seventh Princess's escape routes.

For the seventh princess, the seaside was so close, yet so far away...

"You want the Heart of the Vast Ocean..." After hesitating for a moment, the Seventh Princess smiled gracefully.

She was already stunningly beautiful, and her smile seemed to brighten the entire world for a moment.

A walnut-sized, azure bead quietly appeared on her raised hand, emitting a faint blue light. Inside, it was speckled with stardust, as if containing all things, incredibly strange.

"The Heart of the Vast Ocean!"

Everyone present stared intently at the strange object, their expressions frozen.

"Come and take it if you dare!"

The Seventh Princess let out a cold shout and chanted a spell in a low voice. The Vast Ocean Heart in her hand immediately shone brightly.

The Heart of the Vast Ocean is a sacred artifact of the sea race, ranking ninth on the list of divine artifacts of the Nine Provinces. It is renowned throughout the entire Tianji Continent and its power should not be underestimated. Seeing the Seventh Princess's desperate stance, everyone was terrified and no one dared to step forward...

Only the man in red robes gave a cold laugh: "Bluster, trying to escape this place by using the formation to teleport... Attack, kill her!"

The crowd suddenly realized what was happening and obeyed the order without hesitation, showing no mercy to the women and launching powerful attacks.

The man in red robes raised his hand and summoned a blood-red halberd, which shot out fiercely, carrying a violent aura of bloodlust.

"boom!"
