Chapter 869 World Zero (3)
''Hmph! Fallen King? He was just a brat that was still wet behind the ears! I had been looking for that treasure in the depths of the 'Ruins of the Universe' before that little bastard was even born! He was simply lucky to get his hands on it while I was trapped in that cursed place! But now that it has appeared again, no one can even think of trying to take it away from me!''
The hideous black-robed old man's tone was so cold that it sent shivers down the handsome white-robed man's spine, while the look of killing intent in his abyss-like black eyes was enough to turn even the bravest men in the 'Immortal Dimension' into frozen statues with just a glance!
After all, this black-robed old man was regarded to be one of the most terrifying ancient beings in the entire 'Immortal Dimension', someone who was both revered and feared for his terrifying strength and cruelty!
And yet, the white-robed middle-aged man merely took a deep breath to recompose himself before he stared at the vicious look in the hideous black-robed old man's eyes and answered calmly N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l-B1n.
''Senior Ji, naturally, I will help you as much as I possibly can, but you should know that this matter isn't something that can be treated lightly even by you!
There are far too many powers in the 'Immortal Dimension', both hidden as well as those out in the open, who have been looking for signs of the fallen King's legacy ever since the day he perished. Although it won't be too much of an issue for me to take care of the small fries along with the remnants of the fallen King's faction, dealing with the rest would be impossible even for me!
Despite senior Ji's individual strength, you should know that some of those powers can't possibly be shaken by a single person either, even if that person is you, senior!''
The hideous black-robed old man narrowed his eyes as he stared at the handsome middle-aged man in front of him, while the killing intent around him had already become almost palpable by now, as the space around him had already started to tremble.
And yet, the handsome white-robed middle-aged man didn't seem to have noticed any of this as he continued to stare at 'senior Ji' while waiting for his decision.
Finally, after staying silent for a few more moments, the hideous black-robed old man, 'senior Ji' snorted before he said coldly to the handsome white-robed middle-aged man
''Hmph! You think I am afraid of those worms who pride themselves as the leaders of the 'Immortal Dimension'? Although it's true that I wouldn't be able to destroy them, none of them can pose a threat to me either! This time, nobody will be able to stop me!''
Once he finished speaking, the black-robed old man thew one last look in the distance ahead of him before his figure abruptly disappeared from the luxurious pavilion, leaving behind only the handsome white-robed middle-aged man who was still staring in the distance with an exceedingly solemn look on his face!
...
At the same time, Shun Long was completely oblivious to the fact that certain terrifying figures in the 'Immortal Dimension' had fallen into an uproar, as his entire attention was fully placed in his surroundings instead.
Staring at the scorching desert beneath his feet and the gigantic, familiar-looking rocks that surrounded him from all sides like a natural-made fortress, as well as Liu Mei, Xingyi, Jiang Chen, and Bai Longtian who were all sitting on the ground around him and looked to be in perfect condition, completely different from how they looked back in the 'Illusion oasis' where they were clearly on the verge of death, Shun Long understood that his 'World Zero' had truly succeeded!
''Roooooooaaaaaaaaaaarrrrr!!''
''Long-ge!''
''Eh? Brother Long? We are still alive?''
''Brother Shun... what happened to us?''
The first thing that Shun Long heard after he opened his eyes, was Little Silver's roar that was filled with worry as well as confusion, followed by Liu Mei's, Xingyi's, and Bai Longtian's astounded, as well as surprised voices.
Jiang Chen was the only one who didn't speak after opening his eyes but the only reason behind that, was because he was actually the most shocked out of everyone else present!
Jiang Chen could sense that not only was his qi completely restored and his spiritual strength was back in peak condition after he opened his eyes, but all of his injuries had been fully healed as well, and even his blood essence had been replenished!
Since he had fully burnt all of his blood essence when he fought Mao Huang with Liu Mei and the others, Jiang Chen knew that even if he somehow managed to miraculously survive those injuries of his, he would still need 3 more months at the very least for his body to replenish the blood essence that he had spent!
And yet, right now, not only did he seem to be back in perfect condition, but he could also see that he wasn't in the 'Illusion oasis' any longer either!
Of course, Jiang Chen wasn't the only one who had noticed this, as Liu Mei, Xingyi, and Bai Longtian had noticed those details as well! In fact, the instant their eyes landed on the massive boulders that surrounded them from all sides, they all understood that they had somehow arrived back in the 'endless desert'!
''Brother... what is going on?'' After a moment of hesitation, Jiang Chen decided to ask Shun Long as well, certain that all of this had something to do with him.
..
Since he wasn't planning to hide anything from Liu Mei and the rest about this matter, Shun Long nodded his head and was just about to explain everything, but it was at this moment that the sky above his head suddenly started to rumble!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMM!!!
Instinctively, Liu Mei and the others all raised their heads to look at the sky above them, only to see a massive, black-colored lightning cloud that was crackling with sparks of pure white lightning gather above their heads.
Staring at this baffling yet somehow familiar sight, Liu Mei and the rest all froze into place, as the same 2 words appeared in everyone's minds!
