Chapter 3989

The black staff turned into a stream of light and returned to Zi Chen's hand.

Dozens of feet away, a Soul Devourer who was about to escape fell to the ground, motionless.

Yun Zhen looked up at the sky and sneered, "How dare you come again!"

A ray of white light soared into the sky like an arrow and shot towards the black dot.

It was Yun Zhen's pet beast. On the second trip after encountering the royals, Yun Zhen had brought a pet beast with him. No one knew where he got it from, but it was specifically used to deal with the surveillance from the sky.

After quickly cleaning up the battlefield, Zi Chen looked at the mountains in front of him with hesitation.

Butterball approached and asked, "Should we go deeper?"

Before Zi Chen could answer, Shan Ya said, "We've gained a lot today. Let's go back."

Zi Chen nodded. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but every time he gazed into the depths, he always felt a sense of danger. It was as if there was a powerful and terrifying fierce beast hiding there, waiting for him to go over and then devour him in one gulp.

He turned around, planning to leave.

But as soon as he turned around, he saw someone standing in the sky.

It was a woman, hidden in the clouds. He could vaguely see her graceful figure.

Zi Chen couldn't see the woman's face, but he could feel that she was looking at him.

Their eyes met.

Seeing Zi Chen suddenly stop, the few of them were stunned.

Shan Ya asked, "What's wrong?"

Zi Chen didn't answer. Instead, he looked at the sky and asked, "Who are you?"

The other four were instantly on guard, even though they didn't notice anything unusual.

The woman in the clouds seemed to have a fluctuation in her eyes. The next moment, she dissipated.

The other party's body disappeared like clouds and mist. It was also like an illusory mirage.

"What's wrong?"

There was nothing unusual around them. Lan Gu Meng looked at Zi Chen in surprise.

Zi Chen pointed to the sky and said, "There was someone standing there just now."

"Heavenly Soul?"

In this battlefield, Earth Souls were suppressed by the rules and couldn't fly at all.

As for Heavenly Souls, they could temporarily fly, but it wouldn't last for long.

"I don't know. He doesn't look old."

Zi Chen glanced at the two girls. "They seem to be similar to you, but I couldn't see their faces clearly. They disappeared very quickly."

The situation was so strange that Zi Chen had an extremely bad feeling in his heart. He decided to go back as soon as possible.

Recently, the canyon seemed to be getting more and more chaotic. The number of Soul-devouring Clan members was constantly increasing, and the casualties were also increasing.

On the way back, Zi Chen saw Wan He. After greeting him, the five of them returned to Bloody War City.

"Zi Chen!"

Suddenly, an excited voice rang out.

Zi Chen turned around and saw Yao Ye.

The other party's exhaustion was swept away as he looked at him excitedly and said, "I've received the recognition of the Gate of the Sky. What about you?"

Zi Chen's eyes flashed with surprise. There was no pattern to the opening of the Sky Gate.

It might open one day, or it might never open.

Zi Chen's group of five had entered the battlefield many times, but they had never opened it before. This included Lan Gu Meng and Shan Ya, who had entered the battlefield earlier.

"Then congratulations." Zi Chen smiled faintly and said sincerely.

"There's a competition between us," Yao Ye said.

"I'll wait for you for seven more days. If you still can't open the Gate of the Sky, then you're not as good as me."

"Up to you." Zi Chen walked forward.

"There are only seven days left. Don't you need to hurry?" Yao Ye asked as he looked at Zi Chen, who was about to leave the city.

"There's no hurry."

Zi Chen was very curious about the Gate of the Sky, but it was only curiosity. This was because he didn't lack cultivation techniques, cultivation resources, and soul weapons.

Of course, the reason why he was so calm was because Zi Chen knew that the Gate of the Sky was divided into different levels. The Gate of the Sky opened by the Earth Soul Stage and the Gate of the Sky opened by the Heavenly Soul Stage were completely different.

According to Zi Chen's estimation, what he wanted might not be in the Gate of the Sky of this level.

In front of an abyss, an old man stood. The old man stared at the abyss in front of him with a deep gaze.

A woman in green appeared from behind and walked towards the old man.

The old man stared at the abyss and said without turning his head, "You went to see him?"

The woman in green stood beside the old man and nodded lightly, "I went to take a look, but he also noticed me.

Why is that? "

The old man said, "Maybe it's a coincidence."

The woman looked at the old man in disbelief. How could there be such a coincidence in the world?

"Master, do you really believe that he can succeed?" the woman asked.

The old man retracted his gaze from the abyss and looked at the woman in green, "Maybe."

The old man wasn't sure.

The woman didn't understand, "If that's the case, why do you insist on choosing him?

If you let Little Sheng go with me, won't the chances of success be higher? "

"When I first saw him, I felt a bit of affinity with him."

The old man said, "Maybe it's best for the two of you to go in."

The woman in green found that she couldn't see through her master anymore. Or rather, her master had a strong obsession with this matter.

"Since you've already decided on him, why don't you just tell him the truth?

Why do you want him to continue without knowing anything? "

The woman in green hesitated for a moment and said, "And this time, he seems to be in danger."

The old man looked up at the sky and said, "Then let's leave it to fate. If he can't rely on his own strength to reach here, then forget it. There's still a small chance of success."

The woman in green stared at the abyss in front of her and muttered, "No matter who goes in, I hope he can succeed."

The old man was silent.

For a long time, he didn't say anything.

There was no free time. After returning, Zi Chen cultivated and worked hard to strengthen himself.

During this period of time, he had made great progress. His combat strength was several times stronger than when he first broke through.

Three days later, Zi Chen stretched and walked out of his room.

He didn't have many Death Soul Stones left. It was time to enter the canyon battlefield again.

Zi Chen went to call Butterball and Yun Zhen, who lived next door. Next, the three of them would look for Shan Ya and Lan Gu Meng and enter the canyon together.

Suddenly, a piercing sound came from the city wall. It was an urgent summons, as if something big was about to happen.

Under this summons, everyone had to rush to the city wall.

The three of them looked at each other and immediately rushed to the city wall.

When they reached the city wall, there were already many Earth Souls gathered there. There were even a few Heavenly Souls.

Zi Chen saw Yao Ye in the crowd. Among these people, he seemed to be more familiar with Yao Ye, so he went up to ask about the situation.

"There's news from the front. The Soul Devourers seem to have all moved out. They've rushed into the One-Line-Sky and surrounded many of our teams," said Yao Ye.

"Many teams?"

Zi Chen was stunned. He looked around but didn't see Wan He in the crowd.
