Chapter 196 Departure from Chaoge City of the Great Shang Dynasty
Chapter 196 Departure from Chaoge City of the Great Shang Dynasty
Chen Changsheng was moved after hearing what Iron Fan said.
After all, most people would avoid confronting the Heavenly Court.
However, when Iron Fan learned of this, she did not choose to back down. Instead, she decided to stand on the same side as Chen Changsheng.
This touched Chen Changsheng quite a bit.
After a slight pause, Chen Changsheng came to his senses and bowed respectfully to the iron fan, saying:
"Thank you, sister! I'll remember this."
Iron Fan smiled slightly and replied:
"Take care on your journey!"
"Um."
Chen Changsheng nodded, and without lingering, got up and left.
Watching Chen Changsheng's departing figure, a complex expression flickered in Iron Fan's beautiful eyes as she murmured to herself:
"What a pity."
"I already... have a cultivation partner!"
After leaving Cuiyun Mountain, Chen Changsheng immediately mounted his escape light and sped towards the direction of the Great Shang Dynasty.
Before long, he was traversing what appeared to be an ordinary mountain range.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Chen Changsheng frowned slightly.
"Strange, I... I felt like there was something unusual about the space around me just now?"
Chen Changsheng exclaimed in surprise.
Just now, he seemed to sense ripples in the space-time around him, but only for a moment, and then everything returned to normal.
"Am I overthinking it?"
Chen Changsheng frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows. Without giving it much thought, he continued riding the clouds forward.
They had only been flying for a short while when ripples appeared in the space in front of Chen Changsheng.
When they looked again, they found themselves in an unfamiliar place, having passed through that space.
"this?"
"Is it... is it some kind of barrier?"
Chen Changsheng steadied himself, his expression immediately becoming serious.
Earlier, he had vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
Now, Chen Changsheng was extremely certain that he had probably been transported into some kind of barrier area.
"How could they pull me into this so quietly!"
"The person who set up this protective barrier is probably no ordinary person."
"He must be a quasi-saint!"
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng's expression became even more unpleasant.
It can be determined that the person who set up the barrier was a powerful being with the cultivation level of a quasi-saint.
After all, he was already at the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
If it were a Grand Luo Golden Immortal setting up a barrier, Chen Changsheng was confident that he would be able to detect it immediately.
However, he only realized he had fallen into this barrier area after the fact.
"What's going on?"
"Could it be that some quasi-saint level powerhouse is about to attack me?"
Upon thinking of this, Chen Changsheng's breathing became much more rapid.
If he were to encounter a Grand Luo Golden Immortal, he might still have a fighting chance with his many techniques and magical treasures.
But what if you encounter a powerful being at the quasi-saint level?
With Chen Changsheng's current strength, he is no match for him at all and can only be slaughtered at his mercy!
Even if he possessed many valuable treasures, the result would still be the same.
After all, the gap between a Taiyi Golden Immortal and a Quasi-Saint is simply too great.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Changsheng took a deep breath and calmed his excited mind.
Then, with a thought, he released his divine sense.
After some investigation, Chen Changsheng discovered...
There is a stream within this barrier.
At that moment, on the grassy bank of the stream, sat an old man wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, fishing.
The old man had his back to Chen Changsheng, making it difficult for Chen Changsheng to see the details of his face.
Besides, the old man seemed to be fishing leisurely, as if he were one with this world.
"Is it him?"
After a brief look, Chen Changsheng muttered a doubtful remark:
"Could this person be the master of this barrier?"
After a slight hesitation, Chen Changsheng composed himself and, without further delay, walked straight toward the old man in the straw raincoat.
What shocked Chen Changsheng the most was...
He was about to reach the old man fishing.
But at that moment, a sudden change occurred.
"boom……"
Suddenly, an unimaginable pressure surged in from all directions!
The feeling Chen Changsheng got.
In that instant, it felt as if the weight of the entire world was pressing down on him.
"Such...such terrifying aura and oppressive force!"
"wrong!"
"It's not just a simple aura of intimidation."
"Among these challenges are near-rule-based rejections and tests!"
Chen Changsheng frowned, originally intending to go forward and ask the old fisherman for advice.
Who would have thought that before they even stepped forward, they would be enveloped by this terrifying pressure.
Shocked, Chen Changsheng regained his senses, his eyes hardening with determination.
Without hesitation, he took another step forward despite the immense pressure!
"boom!"
As soon as he landed, Chen Changsheng felt an even stronger pressure descend upon him than before.
"this……"
His expression hardened.
You can feel that the space itself has become viscous and sticky.
The old man sitting by the stream fishing still had his back to Chen Changsheng.
He remained indifferent, as if he hadn't noticed Chen Changsheng's arrival at all.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng didn't hesitate and gritted his teeth as he continued to walk forward.
If it were any other Taiyi Golden Immortal, they would not have been able to withstand that terrifying pressure for such a long time.
But Chen Changsheng is different.
He had climbed Mount Buzhou before, and the oppression he was experiencing now was not much different.
"boom……"
As Chen Changsheng continued to advance, the oppressive force descending upon him grew stronger and stronger.
"snort!"
For a moment, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but shout out loud, his eyes becoming incredibly sharp.
"I'd like to see just who this old man fishing really is!"
Then, Chen Changsheng continued to step forward, resisting the omnipresent pressure of heaven and earth.
Step by step...
Chen Changsheng was about to reach the old man.
Just then, the old man casually flicked his wrist holding the fishing rod, casting the fishing line further into the stream.
"boom!!"
As soon as the old man flicked his wrist, the oppressive force of heaven and earth that had been enveloping Chen Changsheng suddenly surged once more!
Caught off guard, Chen Changsheng was bent over by the sudden increase in pressure.
"Clang!"
He clenched his teeth, let out a deep shout, his blood and qi surged like a dragon, and his magical power circulated wildly.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Changsheng was seen to have straightened his back.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng's fighting spirit was completely ignited.
His steps were slow, but he never stopped!
Ten zhang, nine zhang... five zhang, four zhang, three zhang!
In this way, Chen Changsheng gradually closed the distance between himself and the old man.
Soon, the man had arrived at a position three zhang behind the old man!
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the veins on Chen Changsheng's forehead were bulging, and his bones were making a slight popping sound as if they were under unbearable pressure.
At this moment, the pressure that Chen Changsheng was enduring was beyond what an ordinary Taiyi Golden Immortal could withstand.
Even so, he persevered.
His eyes, in particular, became increasingly clear and resolute!
