Chapter 1399: 1399

Long Chen could no longer recognize this place . The Heaven Devouring Forest’s towering trees had all vanished .

The ground looked like it had been freshly overturned . It was like this entire land had been plowed and was simply left to nature . Wild growth grew everywhere .

The flying boat continued forward, but Long Chen was puzzled . The horde of adventurers he had expected to see rus.h.i.+ng in this direction never appeared .

Although he did see a few, they were spa.r.s.e and isolated, only in small groups of just several people .

“What’s going on? Why would only so few people come for such a good opportunity?” wondered Tang Wan-er .

“Is it that it’s too dangerous, so they don’t dare?” Guo Ran was also suspicious .

“The Heaven Devouring Forest’s name is on the same level as Devil Spirit Mountain, but Devil Spirit Mountain had so many people adventuring inside . It doesn’t make sense . ” Meng Qi shook her head .

According to reason, something this huge would have shaken all the Central Plains’ geniuses, and they would have flocked over . But they didn’t see any large groups . Even groups over ten people were very rare .

Seeing how few adventurers there were, Long Chen thought of Li Tianxuan’s warning . Was this to say that he knew what was going on with the Spirit World?

The flying boat quickly reached the spatial portal at the center of this region . From a distance, it looked like the gaping maw of a giant beast that was patiently waiting for its prey to enter .

The spatial portal was dozens of miles wide, giving off violent spatial fluctuations . The s.p.a.ce around it rippled like water .

This was a spatial portal that had existed for countless years, and the spatial channel inside was completely stable . It was like a door to the Spirit World .

However, this place had been the heart of the Heaven Devouring Forest and had always been a forbidden land to human cultivators . If the Heaven Devouring Forest’s tree demons hadn’t suddenly vanished, no one would have known that there was such a spatial portal here .

This spatial portal was opened by the tree demons and was made for them . Human Soul Transformation experts and above would feel a strong sense of expulsion if they tried to enter, and if they forced it, the spatial backlash would kill them .

Long Chen put away the spatial boat . The Dragonblood warriors stood in front of the spatial portal, all of them feeling their spirits rise . Long Chen had said that they were going to return a debt .

Long Chen’s debt was their debt . And they also wanted to take a look at the legendary Spirit World .

“Let’s go . ”

Long Chen led the way . Meng Qi and Tang Wan-er followed right behind him, and then the rest of the Dragonblood warriors . Gu Yang and Guo Ran took the rear .

Buzz .

s.p.a.ce shook, and the scene in front of Long Chen changed . He saw he was standing on top of a mountain . An endless forest stretched beyond the horizon .

“This is the Spirit World? What strong life energy fluctuations!” exclaimed Tang Wan-er .

“But this air also contains something evil . ” For Meng Qi, this was her second trip to the Spirit World . She could sense that this place was different from the last place they had entered from .

Long Chen hadn’t even had a chance to completely capture the scenery around him before a blood-red sword slashed toward him from an odd angle .

Over ten other figures appeared with the sword, attacking Long Chen .

Wind blades suddenly formed in the air, slicing through those people like flying knives .

Tang Wan-er was now a rank nine Celestial, and her control over wind energy had reached the point that she could control it at will . Even without forming hand seals, she could control the surrounding wind .

“They’re from the Corrupt path . ” Meng Qi was surprised .

There were a total of seventeen of them, and sixteen of them were Soul Transformation experts .

These people were all very weak . They were only rank three Celestials . But the shocking thing was that they were Soul Transformation experts . Just how had they entered the Spirit World?

The rest of the Dragonblood Legion now entered . The first thing they saw were the corpses on the ground .

“Sorry, I couldn’t control my energy perfectly . ” Tang Wan-er stuck out her tongue with embarra.s.sment . As a rank nine Celestial, even just a random attack from her contained the might of the Heavenly Daos . These people were too weak . Even their Yuan Spirits were destroyed .

“How strange . They were from the Corrupt path, so they should have recognized Long Chen . Were they trying to get themselves killed by attacking him?” Meng Qi was trying to make sense of what was going on .
