Chapter 639

Hearing a familiar voice,

the crowd subconsciously cleared a path.

"Clang!"

The white cloth fell away, dancing wildly in the wind.

A sword gleam shot out from his hand.

"Boom!"

A violent impact echoed, and the formation showed clear signs of distortion.

The next second,

"Crack!"

Fissures appeared.

Immediately after, it shattered with a roar, turning into a sky full of orange rain. ===== CHAPTER 1555 =====

The orange rain fell.

The formation turned into nothingness.

Everyone present widened their eyes.

No way!

Drawing the sword lightly, swinging the sword lightly—

who couldn't do that?

Shattering the formation so easily

made their combined attacks look pathetic!

However,

when they thought of the miserable state of the Black Dragon God,

they felt this scene wasn't so abnormal after all.

Retracting the long sword,

the white cloth automatically wrapped around the [Endless Blade],

hanging at Li Yao's waist.

If one looked closely, there was a tiny gap between the white cloth and his waist.

It wasn't hanging; it was floating.

He had been equipped with the white cloth for a few days now,

and Li Yao was quite satisfied with it.

It was a scabbard, yet not entirely a scabbard.

It was as if it contained artificial intelligence,

able to fully grasp his intentions and change as he pleased.

Li Yao walked to the front, and the underground humanoids around him subconsciously cleared a path.

Li Yao couldn't help but remind them:

"Let's go. Get the news back to your countries as soon as possible."

Only then did the crowd snap out of it and return to their journey.

"Cui Si regrets using the cannon," Cui Cui Sitana said, looking at the wooden cannon with some disdain.

"If I'd known using a sword could be this strong and this cool, I should have learned the sword too."

Bobby gave her a look like she was an idiot.

Li Yao summoned Kaisa and had her continuously release her aura.

In this way,

the monsters from the labyrinth wouldn't dare approach, and their travel speed would increase significantly.

As for that sword gleam that destroyed the formation just now,

it actually just looked intimidating.

It was an application of combining sword technique with momentum.

Once weapon mastery reaches the master level, one can use energy to extend the weapon's range.

It didn't count as a brand-new skill.

The damage value was roughly the same as a normal attack.

Under the amplification of momentum,

it might be slightly higher.

The reason it could cut open the prison formation was also simple:

because he was still in the [Shackles] state.

Just as Li Yao had anticipated,

no labyrinth monsters dared to approach this team.

Along the way, Li Yao even sensed dangerous species approaching the scale of the Mordo Great Serpent,

but they all wisely avoided them.

Some underground humanoids speculated

that at this rate,

the journey that originally required a day might now only take about ten hours.

Li Yao had also just learned from Bobby

that a day in the underground world was actually equal to sixteen hours.

According to the Light-Radiance Stones—those glowing stalactites—

every time the light color changed, it was four hours.

It changed four times a day, then cycled back.

One cycle was one day.

Traveling through the labyrinth was dull and boring, which allowed one to settle their mind and think about things.

Cui Cui Sitana and Bobby also accepted the facts

and returned to their usual lively selves.

Bobby still looked very steady,

but in her exchanges with Cui Cui Sitana,

she would often blurt out a sentence that would make Cui Cui Sitana furious.

Li Yao and the others all knew this was Bobby's way of showing she was happy.

Terror, panic, losing the motivation to live—

the reason for it all

was that [Ascending to the Upper City] was the goal set for them since birth.

As long as they ascended, they wouldn't be plagued by war, nor would they have to live in fear of the Black Dragon God every day.

And now,

there was a better hope before them:

to completely crush the culprit!

Before, with the Black Dragon God,

they didn't dare to hope.

But now, with Li Yao standing by their side,

perhaps it wasn't an impossible task!

Looking at the surrounding underground humanoids,

as they traveled through the Gloom Labyrinth,

they gradually became more spirited and began to chat.

"Li Yao's mood has finally improved!" Ling Xin suddenly said from his head.

"Oh? You can tell that?" ===== CHAPTER 1556 =====

"Of course! Li Yao's color before was a pale green representing calm. Just now, when Cui Si was angered by Bobby, it turned azure blue!"

"What about me? What about me?" Mu Mu Xiaoxiao leaned her head in, curious.

"You are the same as Xiao Na; when Li Yao defeated the Black Dragon God, it turned azure blue," Ling Xin recalled.

"The pretty sister has always been pale green, her emotions are very stable, but when we first came down from the Silver Tree and saw her among a pile of magic insects, it was orange, representing anger."

Xue Xue Jiulan glanced at Ling Xin and said nothing.

"Hmm? It turned blue. Is it because I called her 'pretty sister'?" Ling Xin asked, confused. "Oops, why did it turn orange?"

"Don't peek at my emotions!" Xue Xue Jiulan's pretty face flushed, a tic-tac-toe mark appeared on her forehead, and she said fiercely.

"Okay, okay," Ling Xin said quickly. Ling Xin had said the wrong thing; the pretty sister's emotions were not stable at all!

Complaining in its heart, Ling Xin continued: "As for Grandpa Luo, it's usually pale green."

"But whenever he gets new cigarettes and fine wine, it turns a very, very blue color," Ling Xin said, spreading its tentacles exaggeratedly.

"Haha! It's not that exaggerated!" Luo Cheng laughed.

"As for the little monk," Ling Xin paused, "other than red, which represents fear, Ling Xin hasn't seen any other color."

"Uh," Mishaluo scratched the back of his head, "The journey through the abyss is full of danger everywhere. It is a good thing for this monk to have a fearful heart."

"What about Cui Si?" Cui Cui Sitana asked, unable to help herself as she listened to their conversation.

Little Master, there is more to this chapter; please click the next page to continue reading. It gets even better!

Ling Xin glanced at her. "Does Cui Si's mood need Ling Xin to say it? You have it written all over your face."

"Hmph, whatever," Cui Cui Sitana turned her head away.

Just then,

the ground trembled slightly.

"The Gloom Labyrinth is starting to move!"

"This time Cui Si can be sure, the timing is correct; it won't be a dangerous species like the Mordo Great Serpent," Cui Cui Sitana said with certainty.

Soon,

a voice came from an underground humanoid at the front of the team.

"Everyone, please wait here for a moment; I'll go ahead and test the path."

"So nice," Cui Cui Sitana stretched, finding a rock in the cave to sit on. "Labyrinth exploration with someone leading the way is so leisurely."

"Indeed, originally these things should have been done by Bobby," Bobby nodded in agreement.

When the labyrinth changes, the planned route changes.

An explorer is needed to go ahead and test the path.

But such changes wouldn't be too great, otherwise, no one would enter the labyrinth during the time of change.

"Speaking of which, we haven't encountered any monsters on the road, have we?"

Underground humanoids don't have the ability to sense momentum.

Under Kaisa's intentional control,

they couldn't perceive the powerful aura continuously pouring out from Kaisa.

"Also true, with such a large team, how would ordinary monsters dare to approach?"

"Nearly a thousand titled-level explorers entering the Gloom Labyrinth together—it seems that apart from hunting super dangerous species, there was only that war recorded in textbooks a long, long time ago."

Bobby complained: "Cui Si, who doesn't like to study, actually remembers these wars better than Bobby."

"Who said that? I don't remember exactly which year that war was!"

Mu Mu Xiaoxiao covered her forehead. "Cui Si seems very proud?"

"It was the year 492 of the Earth Era, which is 325 years ago."

At this moment, an old voice sounded. ===== CHAPTER 1557 =====
