I Attained Invincibility In The Real World

Chapter 687: Chapter 378 Arrival and Sudden Change Pt. 2

Beside them, Shi Jian’s face was all smiles as he raised his hand to show his agreement.

“Makes sense.”

Even You Ren, who was nearby, gave a slight nod of his head.

Obviously.

Among the four present Great Martial Divines.

Apart from Lie Yan, who was loyally devoted to the Spiritual Martial King and dared not question him,

each one of them believed that Chen Sheng, with his strength and status, was not qualified to lead them.

If only Qing He and Shi Jian objected, that would have been fine.

They were still young, and he could suppress them with his personal aura of deterrence.

But even You Ren…

In that moment.

Lie Yan’s face showed a troubled expression.

“I’ll let you take charge.”

At that time,

Chen Sheng’s voice sounded.

His expression was indifferent as he slowly pushed back the pendant Lie Yan had handed to him.

“I have only broken my limit recently and am unfamiliar with both the Spiritual Martial World and other worlds.”

“If I were to lead, I would be in the dark as well.”

“It’s better if you do it.”

As soon as these words came out.

Shi Jian, the Thunder Envoy, had a barely discernible smirk at the corner of his mouth, seemingly mocking but perhaps simply acknowledging that Chen Sheng was somewhat self-aware.

As for Qing He,

she was even more direct.

“Since the honored guest has agreed, then there’s even less need to dawdle.”

“The longer we waste on such matters, the more dangerous it becomes for Aotian.”

Although she referred to Chen Sheng as an honored guest,

Qing He had not once made direct eye contact with Chen Sheng from the beginning to the end, nor had she inquired about his name.

Her true attitude was clear.

Fortunately, Chen Sheng had never minded these things.

Whether it was doubt or denial,

he had never taken it to heart.

What mattered most to him was whether he could smoothly achieve the results he desired.

“In that case, I’ll have to offend.”

At this moment,

seeing that everyone had agreed,

Lie Yan could only apologize to Chen Sheng before taking the pendant in his hand.

He quickly resumed a serious expression.

His gaze swept over the people around him.

“Let’s go.”

As his voice fell,

following the direction indicated by the pendant,

Lie Yan’s figure turned into a blaze of fire and shot straight ahead.

The other four followed close behind.

With the aid of a concealment spell, if bystanders were to view their flight path,

they would only see faint ripples.

As for their aura,

there was none at all.

Therefore,

they were able to travel at full speed.

In this manner,

Two hours later.

The dark red planet came into view.

On the surface of the planet, flickers of fire were barely visible.

The thick fog of black and red intertwined, like the tentacles of a giant beast tightly binding its form.

“Wait.”

From a distance,

as they were about to arrive at their destination,

Lie Yan suddenly halted.

His face turned extremely ugly in an instant.

Not just him,

the four behind him, excluding Chen Sheng,

none of their faces were faring any better.

And none made any objection to Lie Yan’s abrupt stop.

“The laws of this world are constantly suppressing my strength.”

“Same here.”

“Likewise.”

Sombre voices echoed one after another.

Lie Yan felt the Power of Law within his body being suppressed by an unknown force.

The closer he got to that dark red planet, the stronger this sensation became.

Whoosh!

Flames sparked from the tips of his fingers.

Lie Yan’s frown deepened.

Although he could still wield his own strength,

the same effect now required roughly twice the effort as before.

Furthermore,

having travelled all this way,

Lie Yan realized that his strength was not being replenished.

The Power of Law he possessed had now truly become a finite resource.

Once exhausted,

it wasn’t just a question of whether the mission could be completed successfully,

it would even be questionable whether he could return to the Spiritual Martial World.

The source of strength was cut off.

The consumption doubled.

And their destructive power was greatly reduced.

All these negative effects combined were far more intense than the suppression Lie Yan had experienced when he followed the Spiritual Martial King to other universes.

That was also why the group looked so grim.

Only Chen Sheng,

remained calm as ever.

Reliant solely on his physical strength, not only was he unaffected,

but as they drew closer to the dark red planet, Chen Sheng could even feel the energy circulating within his body speeding up under the influence of an invisible force, causing his physical strength to grow faster and faster.

By now,

his efficiency had increased by about one third.

This made Chen Sheng quite expectant.

If he were on that dark red planet, how much faster could his body become stronger?

And this display of his,

naturally did not escape Lie Yan’s eyes.

“Chen Sheng, is your strength affected?”

“No.”

Chen Sheng’s response was very decisive.

He saw no need to lie about such a matter.

“That’s good.”

Lie Yan nodded slightly.

It was a silver lining that Chen Sheng was unaffected.

But it didn’t ease the others’ expressions.

After all,

it was just Chen Sheng on their side.

No one knew how many were on that dark red planet.

“Keep an eye on the surroundings and continue moving forward.”

With that,

Lie Yan moved forward again.

However, his speed was much slower than before, seemingly conserving strength.

Fortunately,

they were already close enough to their destination.

Even if their speed slowed down several times, they still managed to pass through the red mist on the outside of the planet and enter its interior in less than half an hour.

Boom!!!

It was as if they had stepped across the edge of two realms.

The moment they reached the interior, everyone felt an immense gravity assail them.

This gravity made their bodies suddenly become incredibly heavy, so much so that except for Chen Sheng, the others staggered, nearly losing control and plunging down.

“Damn it.”
