They were still on the energy bridge. Ding Meng was still holding Ji Chenxue's hand as they walked through the astral wind. However, Ji Chenxue's face was cold. She had seen her late father in her illusion, and she was really scared. Then, her inner demons were triggered. She found herself at a grand wedding ceremony, receiving the cheers of all the guests, and marrying her prince charming...
However, she was suddenly awakened by Ding Meng. Unfortunately, she had taken the initiative to ask for a kiss. This was really awkward. The first time she held hands was with Ding Meng, and the first kiss was also with Ding Meng.
Fortunately, Ding Meng had already led her to the Central Light Pupil. When she got closer, she found that it was another black and white vortex teleportation array. She could not see anything from the cliff, but she could feel the strong energy fluctuations of this mass of energy up close.
Ding Meng turned to Ji Chenxue and said, "You should go in with me. If you stay here alone, I don't think you can withstand the energy backlash."
Only then did Ji Chenxue's expression soften a little. After all, Ding Meng was being considerate of her. However, she still held a grudge. "How long did I kiss you just now?"
Ding Meng's eyelids drooped. "Less than three seconds!"
Ji Chenxue said angrily, "Then why didn't you push me away in the first place?"
Ding Meng said helplessly, "Do you want to hear the truth or the lie?"
Ji Chenxue said, "Do you think I'm Lei Jingtian? Of course I want to hear the truth!"
Ding Meng sighed. "Well, I thought I had a strong self-control, but it still took me three seconds to react. Think about it, the goddess of the nation took the initiative to kiss you. Who could resist that? If it were someone else, let alone react, I'm afraid they would hug you and bite you."
"You!" Ji Chenxue was so angry that she laughed. "You really know how to find excuses!"
Ding Meng did not want to waste any more time. "Come, let's go in!"
As the teleportation array activated, Ding Meng was already mentally prepared. This was the second teleportation, and he did not know which subspace they would be teleported to.
After the white light flashed, their vision returned to normal. Ding Meng and Ji Chenxue found that they were still in the Abyss, but this Abyss was not the same as the previous one.
The Abyss was at least ten times smaller, less than 500 meters in diameter.................. and Ding. Ji Chenxue stood on the altar.. There was no way around them...... Ding Meng and Ji Chenxue stood on the altar..
In the middle of the altar, a trident was suspended in the shape of a halo. It shone with a blinding white light. This was the symbol of Shenguang Technology.
Ding Meng and Ji Chenxue both knew that they should not touch this symbol. But at this moment, the pearl necklace on Ji Chenxue's neck reacted. It turned into a firefly and floated towards the symbol. The symbol changed immediately and quickly turned into a cross-shaped Divine Light singularity.
The singularity even spoke. "How dare you trespass on the forbidden grounds!"
This was different from the Divine Light singularities they had seen before. Ding Meng said, "We did not trespass on the forbidden grounds."
The singularity's tone changed. "Since you're a bastard, then die!"
Ding Meng's expression changed. "Be careful!"
Ji Chenxue also sensed that the singularity was emitting a strong energy aura. It was at least at the level of a war god. This energy was the standard aura of a Divine Light martial artist. It was even purer than his and Ding Meng's aura.
The singularity turned into a white shadow at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was a Divine Light martial artist in human form. Ji Chenxue thought it looked familiar.
But Ding Meng did not have time to think. The martial artist was holding a two-meter long spear made of light. It swept toward him like a crescent moon.
Putting aside how ferocious the spear was, Ji Chenxue had already retreated dozens of meters away. It was enough to show that this pure Divine Light martial artist's strength was quite solid.
Ding Meng raised two hand blades, and with a "dang" sound, the spear shaft was cut vertically, and the martial artist was immediately shaken back.
"Who are you?
I don't kill nameless people! "The martial artist sounded surprised. He probably did not expect Ding Meng to be so strong.
Ji Chenxue suddenly said, "He's a soldier in the first group!"
Ding Meng suddenly realized. In the light and shadow he saw on the island in the middle of the lake, the first group had the most people. It was the Great Elder's team. This martial artist was indeed very similar to the soldiers under his command.
The martial artist was impatient. "You coward, you don't dare to make a sound?
Then die! "
After he finished speaking, he swept out with the New Moon again. This time, the long spear swept out with multiple halos. It was simply a bizarre light curtain, completely sealing off Ding Meng's front, making it extremely difficult for him to dodge.
Ding Meng had no intention of dodging. He pushed out with one hand, and a torrent of Origin Energy surged forth. This palm strike was truly ferocious. No matter how good one's Spear Technique was, or how strong one's aura was, the torrent of Origin Energy directly annihilated all the light barriers and cultivators.
The torrent rushed out very far. Ten seconds later, the martial artist disappeared and turned back into a Divine Light Singularity. However, the Singularity was not destroyed. Instead, it was flying around the altar at an extremely fast speed. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was dazzling.
Ding Meng's expression changed again. He turned to Ji Chenxue and shouted, "It's dangerous. Come to me!"
Ji Chenxue did not dare to be careless. The aura of energy around them was no longer fluctuating but surging. It was like a storm was about to set off on the sea. There was a kind of murderous aura about it.
A moment later, Ji Chenxue could not help but suck in a breath of air. With the altar as the center, dozens of Divine Light martial artists appeared in all directions. They were all fully equipped, and the weapons in their hands were sabers, swords, spears, and halberds. They were like a well-trained army.
In addition, these martial artists all had Origin Energy Indexes of tens of billions. They were equivalent to dozens of War God-level experts. Previously, he had thought that the experts of the Storm Assembly were fascinating, but now he realized that the experts of the Storm Assembly were nothing.
Compared to the power in front of him, they were not even worth mentioning.
Ding Meng's expression was also serious. He secretly increased his Origin Energy. His palms slowly stretched out in the air, forming a rainbow-colored light. It was obvious that he was going to use the Holy Flame Array. Although this martial skill was ordinary, the energy it condensed was unprecedentedly powerful.
"Kill!"
All of the martial artists let out a clear cry, their voices extremely ear-piercing.
The encirclement instantly closed. In Ji Chenxue's eyes, the martial artists' true bodies could no longer be seen. All he could see was a dense forest of sabers, swords, and halberds. Just the aura of the encirclement was enough to make anyone tremble in fear.
Ding Meng also pulled with his palms, forming a circle around Ji Chenxue. A giant rainbow-colored Origin Flame spread out. It was like a circular iron wall was expanding infinitely. When all of the martial artists charged into the wall, their bodies immediately froze. Then, their bodies of light scattered bit by bit until they turned into nothingness.
The Holy Flame Array did not stop there. It spread out extremely far, and even the void was lit up by the rainbow-colored light.
After a long time, the entire abyss finally returned to normal. However, Ding Meng's aura suddenly collapsed by a large amount.
Ji Chenxue said in surprise, "Are you alright?"
Ding Meng must have used a large amount of Origin Energy to counterattack in such an exaggerated manner. He would soon enter a period of weakness.
Ding Meng's expression was still solemn. He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine!"
Ji Chenxue said in surprise, "This place is clearly the Mou Xing Ruins. Why did the Oddity attack us?"
Ding Meng pondered and said, "Your necklace is a relic of General Xinglan. The Oddity must have recognized its aura."
Ji Chenxue was extremely intelligent and immediately understood. "Are you saying that these martial artists are the Great Elder's soldiers? They are hostile to the Princess, and that's why the Oddity said that we are bastards?"
"I'm afraid that's the case."
Ding Meng nodded. "Also, I feel that these soldiers have probably died a long time ago. These figures of light are just their spirit images. Otherwise, why would the Oddity exist in this place?"
Ji Chenxue covered his mouth. "If the spirit images are so terrifying, I can't imagine how powerful they were when they were alive."
Ding Meng said, "That's why the combat power of a high-leveled civilization is not something that we humans can hope to match."
Ji Chenxue glanced at Ding Meng again. She knew very well that if it were not for Ding Meng's presence, she would have been torn to shreds by these spirits earlier.
However, the two of them raised their heads at the same time. They could both sense that an even more terrifying aura was gathering in the sky above them. It turned out that the Oddity had not been destroyed. Instead, it had reformed high up in the sky.
A tall martial artist wearing a cloak made of divine light appeared. He was fully equipped and wielded a shield and a spear. He looked majestic and insufferably arrogant. Although he was also in the form of light, his image was much clearer than the martial artists from before. This was clearly the Great Elder's General of Divine Light.
The general suddenly said, "Why did Her Highness Ariel's subordinate trespass into the Great Elder's forbidden area?
And hurt so many of my brothers? "
Ding Meng could not explain these questions to him. He could only answer, "I have something to ask the Great Elder!"
The general said, "You can ask me if you have any questions. There's no need to alert the Great Elder!"
Ding Meng said, "You are just a remnant of your soul. Your brothers are also just spirit images. It seems that the Great Elder has been dead for many years."
The general said coldly, "You shouldn't be asking these questions. I respect Her Highness Ariel. After all, she is a member of the royal family. I advise the two of you to leave this place quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for attacking my own people."
Ding Meng said, "You are really pedantic. There are already many enemies outside. If you don't let me see the Great Elder, are you waiting for the enemy to attack?"
The general said coldly, "In my opinion, you are the enemy. Your identities are unknown, but you carry the auras of Rong Xing and Xinglan. Could it be that the two generals have been killed by you?"
Ding Meng said helplessly, "If the two of them had been killed by us, would I still be here talking to you?"
The general sneered, "I see that you don't intend to be polite. Otherwise, why did you hurt so many of our brothers just now?"
Ding Meng's tone also became cold, "It's useless to say more. Bring it on!"
The general shouted, "Ignorant brat, you really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Do you think you can be so arrogant just because you have learned a little of our clan?
Take my spear! "
After that, he threw it with one hand. The straight and bright spear made of divine light flew down with a swoosh.
