I Attained Invincibility In The Real World - Chapter 553: 321: Arrival at the End of the Tunnel

Chapter 553: Chapter 321: Arrival at the End of the Tunnel

Inside the underground tunnel.

The group continued to move forward.

After a brief interlude,

Stimulated by Chen Sheng, Or seemed to work even harder.

He took all the detectors from Li Wuji’s hand.

His figure continuously flickered along the way, placing one detector after another on the wall.

By now,

They had ventured about ten kilometers deep into the tunnel.

The flames surrounding them had faded to an almost pure white color.

The temperature was too high for their combat suits to withstand alone.

Everyone else had started using their own powers to resist the erosion of the flames.

Except for Chen Sheng.

From beginning to end, he maintained this state.

Even under such extreme temperatures, he hadn’t even broken a sweat.

This made Or’s gaze on him even more intense.

And even not trying to hide it.

Chen Sheng felt waves of goosebumps on his skin due to that staring.

Eventually,

It was the unbearable Chen Sheng who moved to Rhein’s side, using his tall figure to block the line of sight.

Only then did Or reluctantly withdraw his gaze.

“Be careful.”

“We should be getting close.”

At this moment,

Li Wuji warned them.

Along the way, they hadn’t encountered any other emergencies apart from the increasingly high temperature of the flames.

Although from a practical point of view, this was a good thing,

But for some reason,

Li Wuji always had a bad feeling in his heart.

According to his previous experiences,

There were almost always some special life forms inside the Slumbering Heavenly Person Land.

Like the Flesh Monster Trees Chen Sheng encountered during his last exploration.

They were not guards,

But rather, miraculous creatures naturally born due to the leakage of Heavenly Person powers.

However, Li Wuji had never seen the situation in the current Slumbering Land before.

Although there were flames everywhere,

These flames could be extinguished and suppressed.

They were only born due to the high temperatures here, not because of the leakage of Heavenly Person powers.

But why?

Li Wuji was not sure.

However, this did not mean that they had to stop here.

He could only remind the others to be more cautious, so as not to encounter any sudden changes when they reached the end.

Just as Li Wuji’s words fell,

The scene at the end of their line of sight was no longer an endless tunnel.

“Wait.”

Li Wuji raised his arm.

The four of them didn’t act recklessly.

They stopped in their tracks.

Except for Chen Sheng, the other three looked at the scene not far away,

And their expressions were all filled with shock deep in their eyes.

Flames…no, the mere word “flames” could no longer describe the scene before them.

What appeared before them now was a sea of ​​fire that seemed to fill the entire world.

Rock walls, ground, air.

It occupied every inch of space, making it impossible to see the scene behind the sea of ​​fire.

“I’ll scout ahead.”

Li Wuji gestured for Chen Sheng and the others to be patient.

Then,

He took a step forward, approaching the pervasive sea of ​​fire on his own.

Boom!

An invisible rumble was barely audible.

Li Wuji felt a wave of heat as soon as he got close to it.

Even with the protection of the Body Light, his skin still couldn’t help but produce waves of burning sensations.

When he finally reached the sea of ​​fire,

Li Wuji slowly extended his arm, trying to touch it.

But the result, as he had expected,

The Body Light and the white flames suddenly came into contact and immediately flickered, as if they might disappear at any moment.

It was only reluctantly that Li Wuji increased his output of power in order to barely resist the attack of the white flames.

This meant that it was not a problem for them to rely on their own strength to traverse the sea of ​​fire,

But the key was,

The flames obstructed their senses and prevented them from detecting the situation behind them.

If they rushed forward rashly…

Thinking of this, Li Wuji couldn’t help but frown.

Everyone present was an important force in fighting against the Heavenly Person.

They gathered here to find as much information as possible from the not yet awakened Heavenly Person.

Li Wuji did not want to recklessly let Chen Sheng and the others take risks unless it was absolutely necessary.

However,

This indecision didn’t last long.

“I’ll do it.”

With the sound of Chen Sheng’s voice,

The gazes of the other three were all focused on him.

“No.”

“This is too dangerous. We don’t know what lies behind the sea of ​​fire—”

Li Wuji subconsciously thought that Chen Sheng wanted to go ahead alone,

But how could he allow the other party to take the risk by themselves, so he immediately refused.

However,

Chen Sheng’s steps didn’t stop.

He came in front of Li Wuji and gently pressed his shoulder.

Li Wuji now appeared much more burly than Chen Sheng in his middle-aged form.

However,

When Chen Sheng’s palm touched his shoulder, Li Wuji suddenly felt as if he was back in his childhood, experiencing a sense of powerlessness when facing an adult.

“Who said I’m taking a risk?”

Chen Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, looking surprised.

“I’m much more careful than you.”

Saying this,

Chen Sheng gently pushed his palm forward.

Li Wuji’s figure involuntarily retreated several steps,

If it weren’t for the martial artist’s amazing control over their body, he might have fallen to the ground.

This scene made Or and Rhein’s eyes widen at the same time.

Wasn’t Li Wuji the strongest among them?

Why did he seem to have no resistance at all when Chen Sheng pushed him lightly?

For a moment,

The doubtful eyes of the three focused on Chen Sheng.

They wondered what Chen Sheng was going to do.

“Inhale—”

At this moment.

Chen Sheng suddenly took a deep breath.

Scarlet patterns continuously spread on his body’s surface while his momentum steadily rose.

This action made the three people even more baffled.

What is he going to do?

Could it be that he wants to blow out this sea of fire—

Thoughts had just risen in their minds and had not yet faded away.

Boom boom boom!!!!

Like an earthquake shaking the mountain.

The terrifying wind pressure that was instantly raised made the entire underground tunnel tremble violently.

The roaring sound was incessant in their ears, making the three of them feel as if the tunnel could collapse at any moment.

At this moment.

Or’s body was covered in Holy Light, which rapidly expanded into a barrier, enveloping the three of them.

Although the barrier was flickering, it barely managed to withstand the fierce wind surrounding them.

In the howling wind, he could even hear the sound of the detectors he had installed along the way.

Li Wuji had demonstrated it to them earlier.

It was the alarm sound that would sound when experiencing a huge impact.

And the source of all this…

Or raised his head, looking at the not-so-distant front with an expression of utter horror.

Under such strong wind pressure, the sea of fire disappeared instantly.

Only a crystallized ground was left, showing them the traces of the former sea of fire.

As for Chen Sheng.

“It’s done. Let’s go.”

He turned his head back, still looking indifferent.

Just like on the way here, the other party was always silent.

It seemed as if he had done something insignificant.

“…”

Or’s mouth opened slightly and he even forgot to close it.

He just stared blankly at Chen Sheng, seemingly unaware of what he had said.

Genius?

That’s just a fucking genius??

I’m a genius too, why isn’t everyone the same?

Countless doubts filled the young Church Knight’s mind.

But his questions were destined not to be answered at this moment.

Because after Chen Sheng finished speaking, he had already taken another step and moved forward into the depths of the tunnel.

Li Wuji quickly recovered due to several similar experiences.

Frankly speaking.

Even if Chen Sheng suddenly told him that he could shatter the sun with a single punch.

Li Wuji wouldn’t consider it a bizarre thing.

“Cough cough.”

He coughed dryly, patted the shoulders of the two people beside him, and brought their thoughts back.

“Let’s continue on.”

“The mission is the most important thing.”

Or then came back to his senses, although there was still confusion on his face, he subconsciously followed Li Wuji.

As for Rhein, he seemed to be indifferent.

Because earlier, when Chen Sheng exhaled and almost sent them flying, the silver-white armor had already detected strong emotional fluctuations and forcibly injected a suppressing medicine.

Just like that.

The four of them set off again.

Only the leader has unknowingly changed from Li Wuji to Chen Sheng.

They all stepped on the crystallized ground.

Warmth spread from under their feet.

But as time went on, they could clearly feel that the temperature from the soles of their feet was rising rapidly.

Obviously,

The disappearance of the sea of fire was only temporary.

Perhaps, it wouldn’t be long before it would engulf this place once again.

Fortunately, it seemed that,

They had already entered a new area.

Exactly… the deepest part of the tunnel.

“Where is the Heavenly Person?”

Chen Sheng had just entered the new area when flames rose behind him at a close distance and quickly turned into a sea of fire as before.

But he didn’t pay attention to the scene behind him,

Instead, he looked around with a puzzled gaze.

At this moment.

The place where everyone was at was completely different from the previous tunnel.

Flames had disappeared.

At the end of this underground tunnel.

It seemed to be divided into two worlds.

On one side, it was an endless sea of fire, as if it wanted to burn everything to ashes.

On the other side, the surrounding rock walls had an obsidian-like luster,

Right in front of everyone, there was only a huge pit with a diameter of about ten meters, with dark red lava flowing inside.

Sparks occasionally burst out.

If they occasionally fell into the world of the sea of fire, it would cause the already burning flames to soar even higher.

The temperature also rose rapidly with it.

But just as Chen Sheng wondered.

They seemed to have reached the deepest part, but there was no trace of the Heavenly Person.

Is there a separate cave?

Or?

“Wait.”

“Something’s not right.”

At this time,

Rhein, who rarely spoke, warned with a very serious expression.

He stared dead at the lava pool in front of him, with deep blue data occasionally flowing over the surface of his eyeballs.

Hmm?

Everyone followed his gaze.

But neither Li Wuji nor Or could detect anything unusual.

In their perception, lava was merely lava.

There was no life aura.

There were no changes either.

“Back off.”

However, Chen Sheng seemed to have noticed something.

His gaze sharpened.

He directly blocked the three of them.

At the same time.

Gurgle gurgle —

The sound of churning lava became more and more frequent.

Looking at this scene, it seemed that something was approaching from below.

“This thing seems to have completely merged with the environment, and it can’t be detected with just sense.”

Chen Sheng spoke.

While talking, he was also mobilizing his strength.

On the panel.

Within an instant.

Chen Sheng’s attribute had already surpassed seven digits.
