Chapter 555: Chapter 322: Appearance and Mystery of Heavenly Person_2
At this moment.
A warning from Li Wuji came from the side.
At the same time.
A tender and scorching body pressed against Chen Sheng from behind.
“Very nice~”
“As I thought, I never make a wrong judgment.”
A seductive voice rang in his ears.
The warm breath of the woman talking directly brushed against Chen Sheng’s ear.
“It seems that this is not your real body.”
Chen Sheng slowly turned his head and looked indifferently at the stunning face beside him.
“Is it down there?”
He pointed to the magma pool below.
“That’s right.”
“Very clever~”
The woman chuckled seductively.
“I answered your question, can you answer mine too?”
Seeing Chen Sheng’s ambiguous response, she continued to speak.
“You’re different from them.”
“Why aren’t you afraid of me?”
The woman leaned on Chen Sheng’s shoulder, pointing to the wary Li Wuji and the others nearby.
she had seen countless humans.
Facing her, a Heavenly Being, they were either fearful or hateful inside.
But from Chen Sheng, the woman seemed to have not sensed any emotions.
This was also the reason why she paid special attention to Chen Sheng.
“Because…”
“I can kill you.”
Chen Sheng answered indifferently to the woman’s question.
At the same time.
Slap!
A palm with golden patterns gripped the woman’s skull in an instant.
Without any hesitation.
The skull exploded, and along with the body, it once again turned into a sky full of black sand falling down.
The others waited for a few more seconds.
Confirming that the woman showed no signs of reappearing, the four of them regrouped again.
“This Heavenly Being…is quite different from the ones I have read about before.”
“From beginning to end, she never showed any desire to attack, nor any extreme disgust for humans.”
Li Wuji stood beside Chen Sheng, pondering.
“What are you trying to say?”
Chen Sheng asked at the right moment.
“Do you remember when I told you about the origin of Heavenly Beings?”
“You mean…”
Hearing this.
Chen Sheng’s facial expression shifted, as if he had thought of something.
“That’s right.”
Li Wuji slowly nodded.
“Although I can’t be sure yet, if it’s really what I think.”
“Then this Heavenly Being might be able to provide some help to us.”
???
“No, big brothers.”
“Can you not speak in riddles?”
Or, who was listening to their conversation on the side, found it all baffling.
It seemed like he was listening, yet it felt like he wasn’t.
Regarding the understanding of Heavenly Beings, now in the whole human world, probably no one can surpass Li Wuji.
And Li Wuji only shared all the information he had with Chen Sheng.
Therefore,
The things the two of them were talking about, neither Or nor Rhein could understand the meaning.
“I apologize, let me explain briefly.”
Li Wuji once discovered a mural in a relic, which depicted Heavenly Beings being hunted by Homo sapiens and being blessed by a mysterious statue.
According to the mural’s description, it was from that moment on, Heavenly Beings went from prey to hunters, and thus began their massacre of Homo sapiens.
However,
According to the information Li Wuji obtained from other places.
Not all Heavenly Beings harbor great resentment towards Homo sapiens.
During the long years of Homo sapiens hunting Heavenly Beings, a very small number of Heavenly Beings became integrated into Homo sapiens tribes after being captured and gradually joined them in hunting and living together.
Some tribes didn’t even distinguish between Heavenly Beings and Homo sapiens anymore.
Their bloodlines mingled, indistinguishable from one another.
This is also why Heavenly Human Descendants still appear to this day.
“According to my conjecture, the power granted by the mysterious statue was not limited to the dozens of Heavenly Beings present.”
“But was granted directly through bloodlines.”
“This led to all Heavenly Beings on the planet, no matter where they were or what situation they were in, awakening their power at the same moment.”
“Among those who joined Homo sapiens, they naturally did not harbor the same hatred towards humans as most Heavenly Beings.”
“It’s even possible that humans relied on their help to survive from the clutches of Heavenly Beings in the early days without extraordinary power and gradually gained the power to fight back.”
Hearing this,
Rhein and Or suddenly understood.
The two of them, from different countries, mostly served as weapons and symbols.
As for Heavenly Beings, they only knew that they were enemies of mankind, who must be eliminated.
This kind of secret was the first time they had heard of it.
“So, are you saying that the beautiful woman just now might be a good person?”
Or’s words subtly changed when referring to the female Heavenly Being just now.
“Alright, alright.”
“As a Church Knight, it’s against my principles to attack a girl.”
“This is indeed good news.”
“Let’s set off quickly so I can apologize to the beautiful lady.”
The expression on the young Church Knight’s face was eager and enthusiastic.
It seemed that just at Li Wuji’s command, he would jump directly into the lava to find the woman beforehand.
?
Rhein, standing by his side, cast a puzzled glance at Or.
You just didn’t even touch her, what kind of apology are you talking about?
“Don’t be careless.”
“What I’m saying now is just my unilateral guess.”
“No matter what the specific situation is, we must maintain a necessary vigilance.”
“Remember, we are dealing with Heavenly Beings.”
“One misstep could lead to a situation beyond redemption.”
Only after Li Wuji solemnly warned them did Or regain his seriousness.
“It seems we only have one path to follow now.”
As soon as these words were spoken.
The gazes of the four people all fell on the magma pool in front of them.
What’s strange is…
Even though Chen Sheng had shattered countless pieces of it with a fist earlier, there was no sign of the lava in the pool decreasing.
Obviously,
Just as the woman had said.
There must be a hidden world beneath the lava.
“I’ll scout ahead.”
“For me, magma won’t cause any trouble.”
“If there is danger, you just need to protect yourselves.”
Although Chen Sheng has only taken action twice along the way, the power he has demonstrated in these two instances is far beyond the other three.
Therefore,
For his proposal, none of them held any opposing opinions.
Next, Li Wuji handed his personal equipment to Rhein to put inside the armor, to avoid damage.
As for Chen Sheng,
He was already standing by the poolside.
“Be careful.”
Li Wuji reminded him.
As the words fell,
There was the sound of splashing water.
Chen Sheng jumped directly into the lava.
At the same time,
Those standing at the edge of the magma pool suddenly felt the ground trembling faintly.
The movement was not intense.
It didn’t last long either.
In just three to five seconds,
Accompanied by the increasing frequency of bubbling sounds,
Chen Sheng’s arm slowly extended out of the lava’s surface.
He made an ok gesture with his hand.
Seeing this,
The three people looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
Then, they followed Chen Sheng and jumped into the lava.
Splash-
After a brief commotion,
The magma pool returned to its calm state.
——————
Burning hot.
Suffocating.
Weightless.
Quickly traveling through the lava.
These were all of Li Wuji’s current sensations.
He reached out with his palm and tightly gripped Or’s ankle.
The four of them, at this moment, were like interconnected train carriages.
Chen Sheng was leading them forward at a rapid pace along the correct path he had found earlier.
However,
Even with Chen Sheng’s help, Li Wuji still felt somewhat uncomfortable.
Although the Protective Body Light was shielding him from any substantial harm,
Touching lava,
And being wrapped in lava, were two completely different experiences.
Moreover,
The temperature of this lava was far stronger than anything Li Wuji had ever encountered before.
As a result, under the protection of the light, he could still feel the waves of heat constantly penetrating his body, causing his heart to race and his blood to surge.
If he was suffering like this,
Rhein and Or would undoubtedly be in even more pain.
At this moment,
Li Wuji was extremely grateful for having invited Chen Sheng to participate in this action.
If it weren’t for Chen Sheng leading the way, their slow progress through the lava would have been much more difficult, even without encountering enemies.
If an enemy were to attack, casualties would be inevitable.
“Almost there.”
Perhaps sensing the mood of the group, Chen Sheng’s voice pierced through the lava and sounded in their ears.
