Chapter 554: Chapter 322: The Appearance of the Mysterious Heavenly Person

Gulp gulp——

In the dark red magma pool,

The sound of bubbles surged more and more densely.

Everyone was on guard, ready for action.

In silence,

Everyone had released their own strength, secretly tensing their bodies to cope with any crisis that might arise at any time.

Chen Sheng was no exception.

Although he was confident in his own strength,

Confidence was not arrogance.

When facing the unknown, Chen Sheng always remained vigilant.

Time passed bit by bit.

The temperature around the magma pool was getting higher and higher,

So much so that one could clearly see the distorted patterns in the air around it.

“It’s coming.”

Chen Sheng’s eyes condensed.

As if in response to his words,

Splash——

Within the magma pool,

Liquid scattered.

Unexpectedly,

The fierce attack they had imagined didn’t come.

Until now,

Chen Sheng hadn’t felt any malice.

“Hmm~”

A figure slowly revealed itself in front of everyone.

What Chen Sheng and the others were faced with was a captivating woman’s voice.

“Little friends,”

Magma slowly slid off the fair and delicate skin, returning to the pool.

The skin was unharmed.

It seemed as if the liquid was not lava capable of corroding flesh but rather warm bathwater.

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

The lava receded,

And what appeared before everyone was a stunning naked woman.

Leaning her upper body forward, her smooth hair fell from both shoulders, covering her vital parts.

She slowly approached the magma pool like a mermaid from a movie.

Her flirtatious gaze wandered over the others,

Finally,

Stopping on Chen Sheng.

“I like you the most.”

“You have a scent that I like.”

The woman leaned against the edge of the magma pool, supporting her chin with both hands.

Her tongue lightly licked the corner of her mouth, her eyes full of interest scanning over Chen Sheng.

Because of her pose,

The two jade-like peaks squeezed together, forming an exaggerated curve.

With her beautiful face and that lazy expression,

An ordinary man would have been unable to resist.

But Chen Sheng and the others didn’t have the mood for it.

Her appearance, timing, and location were all too strange.

At this moment,

Only doubts filled the minds of the four of them.

“Who are you?”

“Are you human or…?”

Tightly frowning Li Wuji asked in a deep voice.

He had never seen humans in the Slumbering Land before.

Usually, there was only one kind of humanoid lifeform that appeared in the Slumbering Land.

Heavenly Person.

Li Wuji instinctively did not want to think in that direction.

If she was indeed a Heavenly Person,

It would mean that their mission had entered the worst-case scenario they had anticipated.

But according to the Martial Arts Association’s calculation, there were still three days until the Heavenly Person’s awakening.

Even at the fastest estimated speed.

And even from the outside,

This woman didn’t seem to have the distinctive features of a Heavenly Person…

“I’m not human, little brother.”

At that moment,

The woman spoke softly.

The corner of her mouth lifted slightly as she turned her gaze to Li Wuji.

Then,

Her slender arm lifted from within the lava, gently brushing away the hair on her forehead.

There it was,

A red cone-shaped crystal embedded in her forehead.

She was actually a Heavenly Person!

Realizing this fact, the pupils of the four of them contracted instantly.

Boom!

Airflow surged.

In silent unison,

The four of them vanished in an instant, launching an attack on the woman in front of them.

Although she didn’t show any desire to attack,

Or even, like the Heavenly Person Chen Sheng had encountered before, show extreme disgust for humans,

Even in front of a Heavenly Person, Chen Sheng didn’t dare to take it lightly.

And so,

Whoosh!

A blade-like wind instantly brushed the woman’s hair, exposing her ample chest.

A shadow descended.

Chen Sheng’s body occupied all of her vision.

She seemed not to have noticed the change, as her seductive smile still persisted.

The next second,

The fist in her line of sight rapidly enlarged.

With a thud,

Without any hesitation,

The arm with streamlined muscles penetrated through the woman’s chest, pulverizing the jade-like flesh.

Boom!!!

The subsequent shockwave set the lava in the pool into an upward whirl.

“Damn!”

There was an exclamation from the side,

It was Or, who had lagged a step behind.

The other three attacked from behind, but Chen Sheng’s move was just too fast.

They had barely approached when Chen Sheng’s arm had already blasted through the woman’s body.

The upwelling lava turned into a barrier in front of the three of them, forcing them to divert their attention to disperse it.

Splash——

Countless dark red fluids rained down on the ground like raindrops.

The sea of fire in the outside world surged suddenly and occupied the entire heaven and earth in an instant.

Meanwhile, the temperature around the magma pool also rose sharply.

The air turned a crimson red.

Thankfully, the other three had already released their strength,

So they did not suffer any injuries when faced with the sudden turn of events but looked towards Chen Sheng for the first time instead.

However,

Even though his fist had pierced through her chest,

And his palm had completely extracted and crushed her heart,

His expression didn’t ease.

“Something’s wrong.”

Chen Sheng’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.

He withdrew his hand directly.

Accompanying this movement,

The woman’s body, which had been standing still in place after being pierced through the chest by Chen Sheng, began to change.

In an instant, the fair, tender, and seemingly elastic skin withered and lost its color.

Flying ash slowly rose,

And a graceful body turned into a large swath of black sand, blending into the lava.

Chen Sheng looked down at his hand,

As expected,

The bloodstains on his arm underwent the same transformation.

“Chen Sheng, be careful!”
