Chapter 1656 - Coexistence of Reality and the Void (1/2)

Whoos.h.!.+

Mu Lingxi flew out of the dark and landed beside Zhang Ruochen like a breeze.

Zhang Ruochen stared at Lan Sibai and said, “Are you really Shang Ziyan’s cousin?”

Lan Sibai seemed to see a chance to survive and said, “It’s true. You’re very close to my cousin, aren’t you?”

Lan Sibai thought this way because the blue-caped person in front of him had a Merits G.o.dly Stamp.

“Indeed.” Zhang Ruochen smiled.

Lan Sibai felt relieved. He ingratiated himself to Zhang Ruochen and said, “It was all a misunderstanding… It was all my fault… Please, for the sake of my cousin, spare my life…”

Bang!

Zhang Ruochen pierced through Lan Sibai’s head with his sword.

Lan Sibai had no idea why Zhang Ruochen had killed him, even at the point of death. He fell onto the ground, bleeding from his face.

Zhang Ruochen collected all their storage containers. They were indeed the top-tier talents of a large field as they had much more wealth than ordinary half-step saint kings.

There were more than twenty ten-thousand patterns saint weapons, lots of saint stones and dozens of bottles holding divine medicinal pills. Other than those, there were also a great many divine medicinal pills and saint fruits that were ten thousand years old. They were so rare that Zhang Ruochen speculated they’d picked them up from the G.o.d-Naming Platform.

While Zhang Ruochen was counting the valuables, Mu Lingxi was destroying the corpses.

These monks all had great status, and it would be a shock, as they’d died during G.o.d-Naming Platform Conference. They couldn’t leave any traces for Truth G.o.dly Palace to tracked back to them.

Squeak!

A strange sound came out of the dark as if a ferocious beast was grinding its teeth.

However, there was no way a ferocious beast was living in this forbidden area. Could it be an ancient hostile ghost?

Zhang Ruochen was shocked. He immediately put all the valuables on the ground back into his s.p.a.ce ring and showed up beside Mu Lingxi, performing spatial move.

Mu Lingxi also heard that voice. Her face paled, and she held her Phoenix Flume in her hand tight, ready for a fight.

“The creatures in the forbidden area are drawn to the fighting noise,” said Zhang Ruochen.

Mu Lingxi said, “What should we do now? Should we run away or fight them?”

Zhang Ruochen was actually worried about Xiang Chunan. Although he had thousand-mile vision, he was very reckless, and it was likely that he couldn’t make it out of this forbidden area alive, so Zhang Ruochen wouldn’t just leave without him.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to send Mu Lingxi out first before he went to look for Xiang Chunan, but he knew that Mu Lingxi wouldn’t do it and that she would be upset if he forced her to leave.

Zhang Ruochen said cautiously, “Don’t attack before we know our enemies.”

Squeak!

The strange sound in the dark became darker and darker.

Horrifying Yin Qi spread everywhere, and b.a.l.l.s of blue flames gleamed. They were actually fiery eyes.

Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen was only able to see clearly things that were less than one hundred feet away from him, so he couldn’t see what the people with the eyes looked like.

Zhang Ruochen grabbed Mu Lingxi’s wrist and followed the footprints of Xiang Chunan and the great beings from Heaven Field, and there were two blue fiery eyes in front of them.

Zhang Ruochen wanted to see what they looked like, so he didn’t perform spatial move.

He got closer and closer, three hundred feet, two hundred feet, one hundred and fifteen feet, one hundred and forty feet…

Zhang Ruochen stared forward when he was a hundred feet away, and suddenly, the blue fiery eyes disappeared, which horrified him.

“Where are they?”

Mu Lingxi clenched her teeth as her Phoenix Flume gleamed with cold blue light.

“There’re not s.p.a.ce ripples, which means they didn’t practice s.p.a.ce power… No…” Zhang Ruochen’s heart skipped a beat as he felt he was in grave danger, and he wielded his long sword.

Sizzle!

A spear that looked like a saint bone long spear showed up in front of him and Mu Lingxi, giving out great Yin Qi, and it was less than three inches away from Zhang Ruochen’s heart.

Fortunately, Zhang Ruochen wielded his sword earlier to hit the saint bone long spear away, otherwise, the spear would’ve pierced through his heart.

Just as Zhang Ruochen was about to perform spatial move to escape this place, another saint bone long spear was wielded against him, less than three inches away from Zhang Ruochen’s head.

Bang!

Zhang Ruochen wielded his sword again, knocking away the long spear, which vanished shortly after.

Mu Lingxi located their bodies based on the angles of the way they wielded their spears, and then, she wielded her Phoenix Flume and released Extreme Yin Pluto Ice Power dozens of times.

However, all the attacks fell to the ground.

“It doesn’t sound like they went invisible. I reckon they don’t even have real bodies or souls, otherwise, they would’ve been frozen by Extreme Yin Pluto Ice Power,” said Mu Lingxi.

“Not quite,” said Zhang Ruochen.

A lot of stepping sounds followed Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi, and dozens of pairs of fiery eyes were swiftly moving, approaching them both.

“Let’s go.”
