Chapter 677: Chapter 677: Giant City

"No—!"

Bao Hai let out a bloodcurdling scream as his body was split in two. Blood sprayed from the wound as he collapsed to the ground.

"Shadow Manipulation!"

Shu Feng activated his Shadow Manipulation Skill. From within Gabriel’s shadow, tendrils of shadow shot out, stabbing directly at him.

"Shadow Dispel!"

Gabriel chanted an incantation, and a brilliant Light of Light shone around his body.

Under the illumination of the Light of Light, the shadow tendrils disintegrated, fading into nothing more than Residual Shadows.

Gabriel suddenly smiled. "Shu Feng, how about we stop here for today? If we keep fighting, we’ll only end up seriously injuring each other. In a place this dangerous, don’t you agree that’s too great a risk?"

Shu Feng gave Gabriel a deep look and said, "Fine."

"Farewell!"

Gabriel chuckled, turned, and walked away, stepping into the darkness-shrouded Nia Continent.

Ding Xiaoxue asked curiously, "Shu Feng, why didn’t you finish him off? That’s not like you!"

Ding Xiaoxue had been paying close attention to Shu Feng, so she knew he was never lenient with his enemies. He would never let one live if he had the chance to kill them.

Shu Feng said slowly, "Gabriel isn’t the Angel King. He’s the God of Light! He’s not a Demigod, but a Divine Spirit—a revived Divine Spirit!"

"A Divine Spirit!"

Celestial Princess and the others’ faces paled. They all knew exactly what being a Divine Spirit meant.

Back when the God of Darkness from the Gulondo World invaded Blue Star, all of Blue Star’s Top Level Spirit Saints gathered to besiege him, but he slaughtered countless of them.

Although the God of Darkness was eventually killed by the combined efforts of the Seven Great Holy Spears’ Gun Masters, several of the Gun Masters fell in the process.

When the invading God of Darkness from the Gulondo World entered Blue Star, he had already been weakened by more than ninety percent by the Heart of the World. But the God of Light is a Divine Spirit native to Blue Star; his power isn’t restricted.

"Let’s go."

Shu Feng turned and headed directly into the interior of the Nia Continent.

Shu Feng’s group had only walked a few miles when countless maggots suddenly flew out from the surrounding wheat fields, forming a terrifying cloud of insects that swarmed toward them.

"Hmph!"

Shu Feng snorted coldly. The Ten Thousand Demon Gu King inside his body let out a chirp.

The terrifying insect cloud, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, immediately trembled and then dispersed, scattering in all directions.

A look of shock flashed in Liu Lang’s eyes. ’Incredible! As expected of a man who can slay gods!’

That cloud formed by those bizarre maggots was terrifying. Without a wide-area attack, even a Spirit Saint Level expert would have to flee.

Zhen Kai consoled himself, ’You really can’t compare yourself to others. At least I still have my Teleportation Gate!’

’He’s actually grown this strong!’

The corners of Ding Xiaoxue’s mouth lifted slightly as she watched Shu Feng’s back, recalling the first time they met—that unsophisticated, ordinary, and disheveled boy.

That once ordinary and plain boy had undergone countless evolutions and transformations. He was completely different now, having grown into a powerful and charismatic man.

Liu Lang spoke up. "Shu Feng, wait!"

"Hm?"

Shu Feng stopped walking, his gaze falling upon Liu Lang.

"According to my foreknowledge ability, there are great opportunities in four directions! The opportunity to the northwest is the greatest, but also the most perilous. I’m afraid even a Divine Spirit would fall if they went there."

"The opportunity to the northeast is large, and similarly quite dangerous."

"The opportunity to the southwest is relatively smaller, and the danger is also less."

"The opportunity to the southeast is the smallest, as is the danger."

Liu Lang pointed to each of the four directions as he spoke in a solemn voice.

Liu Lang’s foreknowledge ability was extremely powerful. It was precisely because of this ability that Celestial Princess’s team had grown so quickly. Of course, his foreknowledge ability also had times when it failed.

Shu Feng asked curiously, "Liu Lang, besides you, are there other Prophets on Blue Star?"

"Yes! The prophetic ability is rare, but they exist. Besides me, there are at least five other Prophets. The most famous ones are me, the Foreseer Lei Ao from the Jiasen Republic, and the Prophet Saran from the Brentania Republic."

"Beyond that, there are some other Prophets controlled by major powers. I only have a vague idea about them; I don’t know who they are specifically," Liu Lang said.

Shu Feng pondered for a moment before saying, "Then let’s head northeast."

Shu Feng currently only possessed the combat power of a Demigod at his Peak. The northwest held a danger that could make even a Divine Spirit fall. He was unwilling to set foot in such a treacherous place so rashly. It wouldn’t be too late to check out the most dangerous area after he had reaped enough benefits and secured the opportunities in the other locations.

Once Shu Feng made his decision, the group immediately headed northeast.

「Three days later.」

An ancient, majestic city surrounded by massive, fifty-meter-high walls appeared before Shu Feng and his companions.

Surrounding the walls of the majestic ancient city were several thousand Headless Giants, each fifty meters tall with four arms, their bodies embedded with various corpses and swarmed by countless black beetles.

"So many Headless Giants!"

The moment Zhen Kai saw the thousands of Headless Giants, he couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath, his eyes filled with gravity.

Celestial Princess’s team might not even be able to handle a single Headless Giant. The thought of several thousand of them working together was enough to drive one to Despair.

"Excellent!"

Shu Feng’s eyes burned with fervor as he looked at the thousands of Headless Giants.

Each of these Headless Giants contained Source Energy. For every one he killed, Shu Feng could obtain 500,000 Source Energy and 2 units of Holy Soul.

If he slaughtered all several thousand of these Headless Giants, Shu Feng could gain over a billion Source Energy.

"You all wait here. I’m going to wipe them out!"

With a wave of his hand, a transparent, curtain-like Semi-Divine Artifact, the [Concealing Curtain], materialized and enveloped Celestial Princess’s group. Then, he used Shadow Jump and vanished from the spot.

In the next instant, Shu Feng leaped out from the shadow behind a Headless Giant. He executed Storm Swordsmanship, unleashing countless sword flashes that engulfed the creature.

The Headless Giant’s body shuddered before exploding into countless pieces, spraying blood everywhere as it crashed heavily to the ground.

The other Headless Giants were alerted and quickly charged at Shu Feng.

"You mindless fools. How could you possibly be a match for me?"

A mocking glint flashed in Shu Feng’s eyes. He used Shadow Jump, vanished, and reappeared behind another Headless Giant, killing it instantly with a single strike of his sword.
