Chapter 1522
Chapter 1522
The alien army rushed forward like a flood. At this moment of life and death, the fourteen of them did not hesitate to hand their lives over to Zi Chen.
As long as Zi Chen said to fight, they would definitely fight to the death.
To hand over their lives, what kind of trust was this?
But at this critical moment, Zi Chen's mind wandered. His expression was dull, his eyes were blank, and he was speechless.
They had not known Zi Chen for a long time, but even the shortest time they had known him was at least a year. After such a long time, Zi Chen's calmness, decisiveness, and intelligence had left a deep impression on them.
But when had they ever seen Zi Chen in a daze?
What they had seen the most was Zi Chen calmly dealing with matters. Without batting an eyelid, he would scheme against the enemy and thousands of miles away. But today, at this critical moment of life and death, Zi Chen was in a daze. These two expressions should not appear on a wise leader like Zi Chen.
Everyone was puzzled, because they knew Zi Chen very well. He never gave up, so for him to be in a daze at this moment was very strange.
Without this opportunity to make a decision, the non-humankind army swiftly arrived, encircling Zi Chen and his group of fifteen people layer by layer.
Shuntiandao turned around and saw the endless army. He sighed and said, "Mm, not bad. As expected of the Nether Realm. We have killed over a hundred thousand battle spirits, but I didn't expect there to be so many of them left in the starry sky city."
The army of battle spirits that surrounded the fifteen were nearly a hundred thousand in number. In addition, there were also alien battle spirits in the starry sky city. It seemed that the entire Nether Realm had over three hundred thousand battle spirits. It seemed impossible for a mere hundred people to destroy an army of hundreds of thousands.
The army of nearly a hundred thousand surrounded the area, but they did not attack immediately. Instead, they coldly looked at the fifteen humans who were like turtles in a jar.
All the aliens were glowing with killing intent. Their weapons flashed with cold light. They were like fierce wolves and tigers, staring at the prey that was about to enter their mouths.
Looking at these Battle Spirits, Hidden Mist couldn't help but laugh and scold, "What bullsh * t is this? You can't even calculate a person's life, so what kind of destiny are you talking about?"
Jin Qingcheng smiled gently. Her smile was as gentle as the spring breeze. She said lightly, "In the entire Shuntian Prefecture, I'm afraid you're the only one who doesn't believe in fortune-telling."
"I don't believe it either. His Dao of Divination is bullshit. We've all become turtles in a jar," Dark Mantle also jokingly scolded.
No matter if it was the Dark Mantle or the Hidden Mist, in the eyes of the public, they all had the image and bearing that a titled expert from a major power should have. It was the first time that they had cursed like today.
Obviously, the two had already seen that their chances of survival were not high. They might as well live a carefree life before they died. In fact, they were quite envious of Man Shi, Wu Xie and the others. They could scold and curse whenever they wanted, laugh or cry whenever they wanted. They really lived a carefree life.
Being questioned again and again, the fortune-teller didn't get angry. He just shook his head and sighed, "Before I came here, I did a divination, but this place is very special. The divination didn't show anything, it was blank. As for the saying that there's no danger, it can only deceive a child like Zi Chen. I didn't expect you guys to take it seriously."
"Haha," the crowd roared with laughter.
The wise Zi Chen, the decisive Zi Chen, the powerful Zi Chen, the leader Zi Chen, was actually called a child at this moment. Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
As his laughter echoed in the air, a sense of heroism rose from him.
Even if they died in battle, it was worth it for the sake of humanity, for the sake of the War Martial Continent.
Moreover, they had a group of brothers who were fighting side by side.
Before this, they had never called each other brothers. However, at this moment, when they felt heroic, they also considered each other as brothers. They were brothers who were closer than real brothers.
In the outside world, a group of people laughed when they saw this scene, but they couldn't help but shed tears.
Obviously, this trip to the Underworld was going to end here.
"They have created one miracle after another and contributed a lot to the Manor Realm. They should be called heroes."
"They deserve to be called heroes."
So what if they were called heroes? What was the use of the title when they were no longer around?
Everyone was sad. Many people turned their heads away, unable to bear to look at the heroic smiling faces on the screen.
His laughter reverberated through the air like thunder, spreading in all directions and entering the ears of all the battle spirits.
The battle spirits sneered and looked at the 60 people mockingly. They couldn't feel the brotherly love in the laughter, nor could they feel the bravery and determination in the face of death. They could only feel sadness and pity.
They weren't in a hurry to make a move. They just looked at the 60 pitiful humans mockingly.
While the laughter was still echoing, the 69 people soon realized that Zi Chen was still in a daze.
Why was he still in a daze at a time like this?
The crowd was puzzled. Because they knew Zi Chen too well, all of them looked at Zi Chen and sized him up carefully. Some of them even thought that Zi Chen couldn't have been scared out of his wits, right?
They looked at Zi Chen carefully and followed Zi Chen's lifeless gaze to the sky. It was the sky above the Starry Sky City. The sky there was brighter than anywhere else, but that was it.
What was there to see in a bright sky? Was home on the other side of the sky? Zi Chen missed home.
Zi Chen didn't have a home, and he didn't miss it.
He was in a daze because he 'saw' another scene.
It was a person who Shan Lei said was naturally surrounded by lightning. The moment this world called the Netherworld was formed, he passed through the obstruction of time and space and came to this world.
His arrival was silent and didn't alarm anyone.
He came to the sky above the newly built Starry Sky City. Although there were many foreign race experts below, none of them could see him.
He stood in the air and looked around. The lightning around him retracted slightly. Zi Chen saw his face and was shocked.
It was a person who should have died. To be more precise, he should have died in the hands of the foreign invaders. He was an acquaintance because he had once passed through time to teach him a technique, but he failed.
His eyes were hollow and deep, like a bottomless abyss, but also like the vast starry sky. In his eyes, there was the sun, the moon, Xing Chen, all things in the world, and the changing of light. With a glance, he seemed to see through time and space, and see the scene billions of years later.
Then, he saw Zi Chen.
Zi Chen also saw him.
This was the second time the two of them met after crossing through time and space.
Zi Chen didn't think that the other party could see him because it was too unbelievable. However, the other party did see him. The corners of his mouth curled up and he smiled at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen's heart skipped a beat.
Then, the figure surrounded by lightning disappeared and turned into endless lightning, standing in the sky above the Starry Sky City.
Lightning surged in the sky, spreading a vast power. However, the foreign race below still didn't notice. They only felt that the sky had become a little brighter.
Some of the foreign race experts looked up but couldn't see why.
However, in Zi Chen's eyes, there was a terrifying surge of lightning. The lightning was too terrifying, even more terrifying than all the lightning on Zi Chen's body combined.
Zi Chen couldn't tell whether the figure surrounded by lightning was the real body or a clone, but he could see that the other party turned into lightning and dissipated.
The group of fourteen people, including Shan Lei, didn't know why Zi Chen was staring at the slightly brighter sky in a daze. Most of them thought that Zi Chen was homesick.
However, death could come at any time. They had to wake Zi Chen up. At least, they had to know why they were dying.
Jin Qingcheng, who was nearby, reached out her hand and tapped Zi Chen's arm. Zi Chen's lifeless eyes gradually lit up. He saw Jin Qingcheng beside him, who was looking at him with a strange expression. Zi Chen asked blankly, "What's wrong?"
Jin Qingcheng's beautiful face flashed with anger. She said, "You're about to die and you're still in a daze."
"Oh." Zi Chen nodded. Obviously, he hadn't fully recovered his attention.
Jin Qingcheng was angry and embarrassed. However, in the eyes of the others, it was like flirting between lovers. She immediately laughed again.
"Others find joy in the midst of suffering, but these people are finding joy in the midst of death." A battle spirit leader looked at the chuckling humans and sneered.
"Zi Chen, at this time, you should at least say a few words. If we have the chance to turn into battle spirits after death, we will definitely remember your last words." The Fortune Teller joked.
"Yeah, say a few words for us." The crowd jeered. They were really finding joy in death.
Zi Chen, who had recovered, gradually sorted out the unbelievable thoughts from before. He looked at the crowd in silence. Then, he raised his head again and looked at the sky above the Starry Sky City.
The sky above the Starry Sky City was very bright, but there was nothing.
However, in Zi Chen's eyes, there were rays of lightning. These rays of lightning were like angry dragons that were trapped in a space and couldn't rush out.
Body turned into lightning. Body turned into lightning.
Zi Chen raised his head and saw a huge space. In that huge space, there were endless lightning dragons.
Clearly seeing the lightning dragons in that space, Zi Chen knew that everything before was not an illusion. It was real.
That person had indeed turned into lightning, and he had indeed seen him. Perhaps he had seen this scene in front of him all those years ago, and had seen his predicament. That was why he had turned into lightning to help him.
Of course, this statement was more or less unrequited. To be precise, the person surrounded by lightning saw the scene many years later. Therefore, he wanted to borrow Zi Chen's hand to destroy the Starry Sky City and the Nether Realm.
However, the other party didn't leave any seals or techniques. Zi Chen could see the Void Door that hid the lightning. How could he find a way to open it?
At this moment, Zi Chen finally regained his senses.
There was a bright light in his eyes, and the usual calmness and confidence returned to his face. He glanced at the crowd and asked with a smile, "Die? What do you mean die?"
"He's not going to die?" Everyone looked at Zi Chen, puzzled.
