Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Traveling Together

On Blue Star, Shu Feng was, without a doubt, a terrifying figure—one whom even the most powerful experts were loath to offend.

Gabriel smiled faintly. "Miss Celestial Princess, please come explore the Nia Continent ruins with us. Rest assured, we will protect you well."

An icy expression fell over Celestial Princess’s beautiful face as she asked coldly, "And what if we refuse?!"

Gabriel smiled. "Celestial Princess, I admire your beauty and strength. Ding Xiaoxue is a friend of Shu Feng, so she must stay. As for the Prophet Liu Lang and Zhen Kai, the master of Teleportation Gates, they are of no use to us. If you don’t agree, then we’ll just have to dispose of them."

A terrifying pressure at the Advanced Demi-God Level emanated from Gabriel, blanketing Celestial Princess and her party.

After the resurgence of Spiritual Power on Blue Star, Gabriel’s strength had also been advancing by leaps and bounds, growing stronger at a rapid pace every day.

Celestial Princess’s eyes narrowed slightly. ’What a terrifying guy! So this is Gabriel, the Angel King. He’s too strong! Even if our team joins forces, we wouldn’t stand a chance against him!’

Kao, the Gun Master of the [Dragon of Judgment], locked his gaze on Ding Xiaoxue. If she made any sudden moves, he could draw the [Dragon of Judgment] and kill her in an instant.

The Attack Power of the Seven Great Holy Spears was terrifyingly immense, but they offered no Defense Power.

Kao was a Top Level Spiritual Spear Master and could definitely shoot Ding Xiaoxue dead before she could even fire her gun.

The dozens of Top Level experts from the God of Light Church also had their eyes locked on Liu Lang and Zhen Kai, ready to act at a moment’s notice.

Ding Xiaoxue raised her fine eyebrows and said, "Fine. We’ll go in with you!"

Celestial Princess frowned slightly but said nothing, tacitly agreeing with Ding Xiaoxue’s words.

Gabriel smiled faintly. "It is truly my honor to be able to travel with you all!"

Riding on Gabriel’s Light Carpet, the group soon set foot on the Nia Continent.

"So this is the Nia Continent? What a terrifying, ominous place!"

The moment Gabriel set foot on the Nia Continent, he glanced around, and a grave look flashed in his eyes.

"Ominous place? How is that possible? You must be seeing things. This is clearly a Holy Land for cultivation! Look, there are so many Spirit Fruits over there!"

Zhen Kai pointed forward, a look of suspicion on his face.

Ahead was a field of shimmering gold wheat. Along the roads on either side of the field grew spirit trees, each one laden with fruit and emitting a tempting fragrance.

Although the Spirit Fruits on those spirit trees were far from comparable to Sacred Fruits or Divine Fruits, they were still extremely precious Treasures of Heaven and Earth. Before the resurgence of Spiritual Power, a single one could be sold for the high price of several hundred million yuan or more.

"Use this!"

Liu Lang handed a Holy Eye Talisman to Zhen Kai.

Zhen Kai placed the yellow Holy Eye Talisman on the spot between his eyebrows. A pale yellow light flashed, allowing him to suddenly see the world’s true appearance.

The sun-drenched Nia Continent, filled with abundant Spiritual Qi, instantly transformed into a bizarre world permeated with a terrifying black aura and an air of deathly stillness.

The vast field of shimmering gold wheat was now filled with countless corpses. Bizarre, ink-black wheat grew upon those corpses, and all sorts of strange maggots squirmed within the ears of wheat.

All sorts of bizarrely shaped trees grew along both sides of the road, and the fruits on them all had hair-raising faces.

"Eat me!!"

"Eat you!!"

"..."

As if sensing Zhen Kai’s gaze, the bizarre fruits on the trees turned their heads one by one, stared fixedly at him, and let out a series of hair-raising cries.

The moment Zhen Kai heard that incredibly bizarre sound, the Spiritual Power within his body seemed to fall dormant. His eyes glazed over, an unnerving smile appeared on his face, and he began walking toward the fruits.

"Snap out of it!"

Celestial Princess frowned, let out a soft cry, and took out an Illusion-Breaking Talisman, slapping it onto Zhen Kai’s back.

Wisps of black smoke appeared, and Zhen Kai shuddered, snapping back to his senses.

"Thanks, Celestial Princess!"

A flash of gratitude appeared in Zhen Kai’s eyes.

Celestial Princess said with a grave expression, "Be careful. This place is very dangerous!"

Zhen Kai was a Spirit Venerable Peak expert who also cultivated many Secret Techniques. Yet, his mind had been influenced by some bizarre existences on the mere outskirts of the Nia Continent. This just went to show how terrifying and dangerous the Nia Continent was.

Just then, the maggots in the wheat field seemed to have been disturbed. Beating their wings, they flew directly toward Gabriel and his group.

The dense swarm of maggots formed a terrifying black cloud of insects that lunged straight for Gabriel’s party.

Without area-of-effect attacks, even a Spirit Saint Level expert would find such a terrifying black cloud of insects to be a huge headache.

"Divine Art, Purifying Light!"

Gabriel chanted an incantation and pointed his finger.

A pillar of light containing terrifying Purifying Power descended from the sky, enveloping the black cloud of insects.

CRACKLE! POP!

Amidst a series of crisp, cracking sounds, the bizarre maggots exploded one after another, releasing countless wisps of black fog as they fell from the sky.

The instant the Purifying Light appeared, countless other bizarre maggots also scattered in terror, flying off in other directions.

To those Demon Insects, the Purifying Light was like a deadly poison; just a single touch would cause them to perish.

Gabriel frowned slightly. ’How troublesome!’

’Those ordinary Demon Insects aren’t hard to deal with, but this is merely the outer edge of the Nia Continent. Who knows how many more terrifying Demons are lurking within.’

The group continued onward.

"On guard!"

After walking less than a kilometer, Gabriel’s brow suddenly furrowed. He looked toward the wheat field to the side and shouted sharply.

From the nearby wheat field, monsters began to charge toward them like bolts of Lightning. Covered in black Scale Armor and entirely pitch-black, they stood two meters tall, with heads like human skulls and long tails.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Everyone present quickly drew their Spiritual Spears and fired at the monsters.

Spiritual Power Bullets slammed into the monsters’ hearts, heads, abdomens, and other parts, blasting terrifying holes in them.

The monsters whose heads were blown off collapsed to the ground, but those whose other body parts were pierced through continued their furious charge toward Gabriel’s party.

CLANG!

"So tough!"

Celestial Princess drew a greatsword and decapitated a monster with a single slash, her brow furrowing slightly. When her greatsword struck the monsters, it felt as if she were striking diamond. If not for her immense strength, she would have been completely unable to sever the monster’s head.

’Such strong Defense Power!’

"Dammit!"

Among Gabriel’s party, three Spirit Venerable Level Warriors misjudged. Their Long Swords were sent flying by the impact with the monsters, who seized the opportunity to bite down on them.
