Chapter 552: Chapter 320: Departure and Underground Tunnel_3

“No problem.”

Or replied with a smile.

Although he was too shy to challenge Chen Sheng during the mission.

But when it comes to the difficult problems that everyone else is at a loss to solve.

It was Or who succeeded in resolving them.

In this aspect, he considered himself as having a slight edge, right?

Thinking like this,

Or looked at Chen Sheng.

But what he saw

made this Church Knight show a look of astonishment.

Chen Sheng was squatting on the ground.

And his palm was slowly reaching out towards the flames on the ground.

“Hey!”

The temperature of the surrounding flames was extremely high.

Whether it was Or, Li Wuji, or Rhein who relied on high-tech,

they all relied on the fire resistance of their combat suits to conserve their strength for emergencies.

But Chen Sheng, who was now touching the flames, had already taken off the gloves of his combat suit, and Or hadn’t sensed any fluctuations from him.

Seeing such a dangerous move,

Or instinctively wanted to stop him out loud.

But Chen Sheng didn’t listen at all.

He grabbed the earth, just like how Li Wuji did previously,

His palm directly touched the high-temperature flames without any barrier between them.

However,

the flames facing Chen Sheng’s flesh and blood palm didn’t gain an inch, as if it was up against a chasm.

From an angle that Or couldn’t see, a black light flashed in the depths of Chen Sheng’s eyes.

Gluttony—capable of absorbing all materials to recover the body.

Chen Sheng hadn’t used this ability since he started cultivating the Seven Demon Holy Scriptures.

Because…

he couldn’t find anyone who could hurt him.

While moving forward previously, Chen Sheng had been testing to see which method was suitable to combat the high-temperature environment around him.

After all,

they still didn’t know how long this underground tunnel was,

and whether the temperature of the flames would continue to rise indefinitely.

Chen Sheng himself didn’t really care.

It was mainly about the other three people.

Although they seemed to be handling it quite well now,

Chen Sheng felt that it was necessary to be prepared for any eventuality, and try more approaches in the upcoming journey, to make sure they were ready for multiple contingencies in different environments.

Thinking of this,

Chen Sheng gently rubbed his palm.

The hard rocks were quickly crushed, falling to the ground through the gaps in his fingers.

The flames attached to his palm fluttered a few times, but eventually died out weakly.

From beginning to end, Or didn’t feel any fluctuations in power.

It seemed as if Chen Sheng had really relied on his flesh and blood to extinguish the flames.

“Never mind.”

Just then,

Chen Sheng lifted his head and spoke to Or for the first time.

“If you can do it, then you do it.”

He said indifferently, then got up again to continue moving forward.

“Oh, okay.”

On Or’s face, a fleeting look of confusion passed by.

He instinctively nodded in agreement with Chen Sheng’s words, seemingly obedient to his instructions.

But Or was no ordinary person after all.

After a brief moment of confusion, he quickly snapped out of it.

“Wait, what do you mean ‘you do it’, ‘I do it’?”

Or’s big eyes widened, trying to question further.

Just that instant,

he had no intention of refusing Chen Sheng’s order in his heart, only unconsciously wanting to follow his instructions.

Although this state lasted only for a brief moment,

in a battle between ordinary martial artists, even a momentary mistake could tilt the scale of the fight.

Let alone them, at this level of martial artists.

That brief moment just now,

might have been enough for an opponent to kill him ten or eight times.

What kind of ability is that?

This is simply…too challenging!

Or looked at Chen Sheng’s back,

his eyes filled with burning fighting spirit.

If previously, Chen Sheng’s identity was just a speculation of his,

now,

he was completely convinced.

Chen Sheng was a target worth chasing.

A target worth surpassing.

A benchmark that could propel him a step further towards the title of the strongest!
