Chapter 688: Chapter 378: Arrival and Sudden Change Pt. 3
The closer they got, the stronger the suppression became.
Now, the gravity was doubled.
Lie Yan couldn’t help but curse inwardly.
But at this point, the idea of retreat had never crossed his mind.
“Let’s just go down.”
“Maintaining levitation in these conditions consumes more energy.”
He swiftly gathered his thoughts and issued instructions to the others.
With a concealment spell at their disposal,
they had no worries about the changes around them being detected by the outside world.
Rather than waste strength for no reason, it would be better to land first and observe the situation.
So,
they descended quickly.
It was during this fall that Chen Sheng began to observe the landscape of the planet.
The words “scorched earth of the apocalypse” instantly appeared in his mind.
Looking around, all one could see was scorched earth.
Gaping fissures spread chaotically across the land plates, continuously erupting with scorching hot lava.
The sky where they were was already shrouded by the ash and black mist rising from the ground.
Not a single color was visible.
No… that wasn’t entirely true.
Chen Sheng looked further off into the distance.
A half-moon shaped light blue light shield enveloped a vast area.
Although somewhat blurry,
from the outside, one could still clearly see a scene of vibrant life within, along with a steel city filled with a sense of technology.
Outside the light shield,
the scene of the scorched earth was like that of hell.
Inside the light shield,
it was a completely harmonious image of a futuristic city.
It was a jarring contrast that gave off an intense feeling of disconnection.
“Aotian is very likely inside these blue light barriers.”
“Just now I sensed the presence of weak intelligent life in the scorched earth.”
“After we land, let’s find some of the native intelligent beings to inquire about the specifics of this world before arranging our next steps.”
As the ground grew ever closer,
Lie Yan, having finished his observations, analyzed their next course of action.
Regarding this,
no one had any objections, so they simply agreed.
Boom.
With a series of light thuds,
everyone landed steadily.
Lie Yan took out the pendant again, preparing to first determine Long Aotian’s exact location.
On the crescent pendant,
a grain of rice-sized light point faintly shone.
As Lie Yan infused strength into it,
the light point began to move around until it reached the front end of the crescent.
That was in the direction of the large light screen to the right front of them.
Just as they had speculated.
Long Aotian was probably in the city inside the light screen.
Now, they faced the problem of how to enter the light screen smoothly and without obstruction.
The concealing spell granted by Spiritual Martial King could only help them conceal their own aura and the sounds emitted when releasing the Power of Law.
It was unlikely to be equally effective against the outside world, especially that seemingly complex blue light barrier.
“In this direction, there are constantly moving native intelligent beings.”
“Let’s find them first and understand the situation.”
“If there are no more convenient ways to infiltrate, then we’ll have to rely on your action.”
At this point,
Lie Yan looked toward You Ren and Qing He.
“No matter what, conserve your strength as we move forward.”
“If we encounter an enemy, Chen Sheng and I will handle it, making as little noise as possible.”
“Should we come across an opponent we cannot overcome, we’ll need to rely on Shi Jian.”
During Lie Yan’s instructions,
everyone responded in turn.
Only Shi Jian seemed somewhat distracted.
It wasn’t until Lie Yan sternly glared at him that he hurriedly nodded in agreement.
“This is enemy territory.”
“If you don’t want to die, stay sharp!”
Having said this,
Lie Yan snorted coldly.
He was about to put the resonating pendant back into his chest,
but the next second,
he seemed to sense something and his movements suddenly stopped.
Whoosh!
Lie Yan looked down sharply at the pendant.
His pupils instantly contracted.
“This is—”
The pendant, which had only been emitting a faint light, suddenly began to vibrate vigorously, and the light grew increasingly dazzling.
It seemed as if something was causing it to resonate.
And,
it was moving at a very high speed towards their location.
