However ,

Mr. Chou had just taken off his T-shirt. Mr. Mao, behind him, stepped forward first.

“Sir.”

Mr. Mao knelt on one knee.

He handed over the priestly robe that he wore.

This robe was so large that even when Mr. Mao was in Breathing State, it did not suffer any damage.

Except for a few slashes by tree branches.

But it is still good enough for covering the body.

Upon seeing this,

Chen Sheng reached out and grabbed it.

No one in the room could see his movement. With a slight shimmer of his figure,

Chen Sheng had put on the black robe.

“The fuck, you knew it was Lord Xuanwu and you didn’t tell?!”

Mr. Chou ceased his actions.

He glared, questioning Mr. Mao with his lips. Amongst the Top Six of the Twelve Holy Envoys,

Chou and Mao were considered odd ones out.

Their strength was at the very bottom, and they had no desire to climb higher.

They were just defending their own little territory, dutifully completing the tasks set by the higher-ups.

Between the two, there was some affection.

Unlike the others in the Holy Sect, where relationships were all about competition and exploitation.

Hence,

Even though Mr. Chou was questioning, he wasn’t really upset.

As for Mr. Mao, he simply ignored Mr. Chou’s silent accusations of being unprincipled.

He simply looked at Chen Sheng in front of him. In his eyes, there was an endless frenzy of light.

Seeing his expression,

Mr. Chou paused.

He seemed to sense what Mr. Mao was thinking.

His expression gradually became poised, and his eyes revealed a thoughtful look.

As for their inner thoughts,

Chen Sheng was not concerned with them.

He looked around, his eyes slightly somber.

A small percentage of the Holy Sect followers present had already lost their breath.

Fortunately,

When the Flesh Monster Trees attacked, they didn’t aim for vital parts; they merely restrained them.

Therefore,

Those who survived still retained basic mobility.

“Continue onward.”

Chen Sheng said in a deep voice.

Hearing this,

The Holy Sect followers, who had just finished treating their wounds, quickly got up from the ground.

They were all martial artists.

Unless their tendons were damaged, ordinary wounds would not affect their movement.

Though the Flesh Monster Trees were terrifying.

Chen Sheng was even more so.

Between the two, they chose the lesser threat.

Facing the Flesh Monster Trees, they are likely to die.

Defying Lord Xuanwu, they will surely die. After witnessing the Flesh Monster Trees fleeing in fear,

All the followers had deeply understood this logic.

Not one of them intended to defy the order.

Swish!

Chen Sheng took the lead, and the crowd followed closely behind him.

They moved towards the location of the Slumbering Land.

After ten minutes,

Chen Sheng, who had been moving through the dense forest, suddenly saw a clearing.

Across the otherwise continuous forest was a stretch of open space.

Its length was unknown, stretching as far as the eye could see. About a hundred meters wide.

Like a dividing line, it separated the forest into two halves.

“Sir, this is the place.”

Mr. Chou, standing behind him, said softly.

While speaking,

He scanned the barren ground.

Just one hour ago, he was just here.

At that time,

The open space was not as large as it is now.

It was as if someone had used a bulldozer to flatten an area within the dense forest.

And the personnel from the Martial Arts Association and the Wu’an Bureau who were camping here had vanished without a trace.

Thinking about the Flesh Monster Trees that they’d encountered earlier,

Mr. Chou already had a guess in his mind.

Although it looked ordinary,

Who knows what monsters were hiding underneath the ground.

Chen Sheng’s face was expressionless.

After a brief survey of the surroundings,

“Wait.”

As his words fell,

He took a step forward.

The solid sensation of the ground was felt under his foot.

Step.

Step.

Chen Sheng kept walking, advancing slowly.

Finally,

He reached the center of the open space.

Without any hesitation,

He exerted force on his right leg, and slowly pressed down.

Crack…..Crack!

First, numerous cracks spread out from where Chen Sheng stood, extending in all directions.

Following that,

Unable to bear the pressure.

The ground began to continuously cave in.

Chen Sheng’s right leg was even deeply buried underground.

However,

According to the hard feeling transmitted from his right leg.

The flesh wasn’t buried beneath the surface as Chen Sheng had anticipated.

But Chen Sheng was not disappointed with this.

His gaze slightly darkened.

His right leg was directly pulled out.

If Mr. Chou was not lying, this was indeed the location of the Slumbering Land that the Martial Arts Association had previously explored.

Therefore…

Pondering this,

Chen Sheng gradually lifted his leg,

Looking at this.

Seemingly perceiving what Chen Sheng wanted to do.

The eyes of Chou and Mao slowly widened.

In their minds,

Alarm bells rang crazily.

“Retreat!”

“Find cover!”

Without a second thought,

They immediately shouted orders to the followers of the Holy Sect behind them.

Although the followers didn’t understand the situation,

Being able to distinguish and promptly execute orders from their superiors was a lifesaving skill during critical times.

Hence,

The moment the order was given out,

The followers of the Holy Sect scattered around without any hesitation, immediately seeking the nearest cover.

The next second-

In Mr. Mao’s widened eyes,

Chen Sheng’s right foot,

Stomped down fiercely!

Boom—

The earth trembled wildly.

The shock wave brought up billowing dust, sweeping towards all directions from where Chen Sheng was standing.

Crackling sounds were incessantly heard.

The trees that suffered the first wave of the shock wave couldn’t provide any resistance, and were instantly uprooted, being carried by the wave towards the farther reaches.

More interestingly, droplets of “rain” were continuously shot around like bullets.

The sound of whistling echoed around.

That was the sound of the liquid piercing through the tree trunks.

It made one’s scalp tingle in horror.

Luckily, Mr. Chou’s warning was timely.

Most of the followers of the Holy Sect had already run far, and thus did not suffer any harm.

After barely escaping the first wave,

Before everyone could recover their wits,

Boom—

There was another roar from the direction of the empty ground.

Is this the… power of the Four Saints?

Feeling the ground shaking beneath their feet

And the boundless shock wave roaring at their ears,

The followers of the Holy Sect were secretly shocked.

The tip of the iceberg of Chen Sheng’s strength that he had displayed, had by far exceeded their understanding.

Could a human body really do this?

The doubt subconsciously rose.

But Chen Sheng’s previous god-like demeanor immediately surfaced in their minds,

They once again felt that such a disturbance was rather normal.

Like this,

Until the dust gradually dissipated,

Chou and Mao, filthy with dirt and dust, finally crawled up from the ground. They had already gone into a breathing state, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to ensure that they weren’t injured.

Standing up,

Mr. Chou surveyed his surroundings.

The ground was filled with a lot of broken branches and logs. It was a mess.

Chen Sheng, with these few stomps,

Frankly, it expanded the range of the empty space by more than a whole circle.

Mr. Chou, who was feeling breathless, looked towards the center of the open ground.

An outline of a figure appeared amidst the dust, wrapped in a black robe.

Around them, sounds rustled.

The Holy Sect Personnel slowly climbed up from the ground.

When the dust completely dispersed,

As the appearance of the open ground displayed itself again into the eyes of everyone,

They couldn’t help but gasp for breath.

Where was the ground?

It was as if the flesh had been violently ripped open.

Fresh, tender flesh was trembling insanely beneath Chen Sheng’s feet.

A flesh hole, from which fresh blood was continuously spouting out, shockingly appeared before Chen Sheng.

Large amounts of flesh and blood, scattered on the ground farther away for some reason related to the heavy blow.

“What… what is this?”

Mr. Chou was terrified.

Under the ground,

It turned out not to be soil, but a mass of flesh.

So eerie and unheard of before.

On top of the open ground,

Chen Sheng silently stood, looking at the blood hole before him, not saying a word.

The flesh beside the blood hole was constantly squirming, trying to fill up the hole.

Pity that,

The thunder entwined around the blood hole was constantly impeding its healing.

Under Chen Sheng’s control, it dug deeper and deeper, until it had completely penetrated through.

After a short while.

In Chen Sheng’s perception,

A new life aura had finally emerged.

Those were the auras of other humans.

There were those strong and weak among them.

They should be the members of the Martial Arts Association who were assigned the task of exploring the Slumbering Land.

Seeing this,

Chen Sheng withdrew his gaze and looked at the Holy Sect people not far away.

“Prepare to leave..”
