Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 657: Chapter 657 Second Brushing
 

Familiar space, familiar graveyard.

Standing in the center of the cemetery, Wang Chen looked around, his eyes taking in the scenes stored in his memory.

Only, compared to the previous Wormhole Space, the area he now saw had clearly expanded by a large margin, with rolling hills now appearing all around.

But it was just as desolate and eerie.

What would come out today after last time’s skeleton sea?

Wang Chen stamped his foot.

His power passed through the soles of his feet into the ground, creating a slight vibration.

Brother has arrived!

This was Wang Chen greeting his potential opponents.

What you keep in your mind, without forgetting, will reverberate back at you!

Just as Wang Chen was “knocking” in his own way, a loud “boom” was heard, and a tomb about twenty or thirty steps away from him suddenly exploded.

The broken tombstone was suddenly propelled towards Wang Chen, its whistling through the air commanding and formidable!

Has it come?

Wang Chen’s eyes narrowed and he threw a punch without dodging.

Bang!

In his fist, the tombstone shattered, while his flesh and blood body remained unharmed, the hard stone cracking apart.

The next moment, a dark grey silhouette burst from the grave and soared into the sky, then plunged towards Wang Chen.

Before Wang Chen could get a clear look at the opponent, the latter suddenly quivered in mid-air, splitting into two identical figures.

Witnessing this, Wang Chen instantly stepped back using Shrinking Ground into Inches.

Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!

Just as he dodged out of the way, the original spot where he had been standing was suddenly filled with deep holes.

At the same time, Wang Chen also got a clear look at the enemy.

One, or rather three, completely identical zombies.

Their black-grey skin looked like tough cowhide, wrapped around a sturdy skeleton, with bald heads devoid of hair, and their eyes full of dark deathly energy.

Their limbs were long, with fingers and toes all ending in curved, sharp claws that gleamed with a Black Iron-like luster.

Most importantly, the zombies had a pair of wings on their backs.

This must be why they could leap and fly high!

Wang Chen realized that the opponents he had encountered in his second run of the Wormhole Space instance were far stronger than the skeletons he had faced on the first run.

Without a second thought, he made a spell with his hands and invoked the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.

Before the Flying Zombies could launch their second wave of attacks, the thunder called forth by Wang Chen had already struck from the sky, hitting them squarely.

Two of the flying zombies were annihilated with one blow, bursting like balloons pricked with a needle, leaving no trace after their destruction.

Only the one on the right withstood two bolts of Divine Thunder before losing balance and falling from the sky.

The next moment, a streak of light flashed by, slicing the Flying Zombie into several pieces before it even touched the ground!

Dragon Abyss Sword!

The skin of the Flying Zombies was extremely tough, and their bones were even harder.

However, under the slashing of the Dragon Abyss Flying Sword, they were no different from paper mache, cleanly and crisply turning into zombie chunks, falling to the ground with a clatter.

[Human Virtue +1658]

Wormhole Space once again fell into a dead silence.

Is that the end?

Wang Chen called back his Flying Sword somewhat disappointedly.

He hadn’t even started to warm up yet!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

It was as if the monsters lurking beneath the graveyard had heard Wang Chen’s inner thoughts, unable to hold back their anger, they burst through the graves’ seals and shot straight into the sky.

One, two, three…

In an instant, dozens of Flying Zombies appeared in the sky above Wang Chen’s head.

They loomed high, staring intently at Wang Chen, their hands open with fingers curved, each sharp claw gleaming with a cold luster.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The next moment, hundreds of claws rushed down like a violent storm.

Completely enveloping Wang Chen!

“Protect!”

Wang Chen had no time to dodge, and immediately raised his arm to activate the Heavy Light Shield!

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The claws shot by the Flying Zombies were extremely fast, arriving at the very moment Wang Chen put up the shield.

The first and second layers of the Heavy Light Shield were actually penetrated simultaneously!

It must be known that Wang Chen’s Heavy Light Shield Armor had already been cultivated to the level of Great Perfection, and its defensive strength was very strong.

However, the combat power of these Flying Zombies was also no trivial matter, and after launching the first wave of claws, they pounced toward Wang Chen from all directions.

Wang Chen’s field of vision was completely covered by a dark mass of “giant bats”!

“Fire!”

Wang Chen stood undaunted, suddenly raising his arms and exhaling as he spoke.

Blazes surged up from beneath his feet, swiftly enveloping his entire body in flames, the fiery currents soaring into the sky and spreading in different directions.

At this moment, Wang Chen seemed to have become a giant torch, and when he spread his arms, he resembled a phoenix spreading its wings.

With the most “passionate” embrace, he welcomed the Flying Zombies diving toward him.

“Screeech!”

Piercing shrieks suddenly erupted.

A few of the fastest-diving zombies bore the brunt of the attack, instantly swallowed by the flames and tumbling down heavily upon the ground.

Creating large pits as they fell.

To these Evil Monsters and Monster Spirits, flames containing the power of extreme yang were undoubtedly one of the most feared things, and even though they had no sense of pain, they still felt immense fear and agony!

Many of the Flying Zombies following closely behind were forced by the surging flames to instinctively change direction, each drawing a clumsy arc in the air to avoid the powerful counterattack from Wang Chen.

But if they thought they were safe by doing so, they were utterly mistaken.

As the flames raged, a brilliant Sword Light was born from the fire, and in an instant, it split into a dozen sword beams crisscrossing in the air, slicing the zombies caught in the net into countless pieces.

Remaining limbs and severed arms rained down like a downpour!

[Human Virtue+1520], [Human Virtue+1786], [Human Virtue+1707]… The information flashing in his view did not affect Wang Chen at all. His heart was undisturbed, focusing entirely on controlling the Dragon Abyss Flying Sword, slaughtering the dispersing Flying Zombies.

Not a single zombie could withstand the dazzling Sword Light of this Magical Treasure Flying Sword, and even the split Sword Light was like cutting through vegetables, decimating the Evil Monsters and Monster Spirits.@@novelbin@@

With Sword Qi soaring through the air, the number of Flying Zombies in the sky rapidly decreased, completely unable to mount any sort of resistance.

There were also a few recklessly fearless zombies that landed and rushed straight toward him, but what met them was Wang Chen’s Great Perfection level Heavenly Dragon Vajra Palm.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

One palm for each, crushing them to pieces, none could withstand it!

In just a short moment, the dozens of Flying Zombies were reduced by Wang Chen to just a few cats’ worth.

Seemingly developing an instinctual fear, they all plunged back into their graves, actually fleeing the battle.

When Wang Chen recalled the Dragon Abyss Flying Sword and looked around, there were no opponents left in sight!

Wang Chen considered whether to “dig out” the remaining zombies from underground, but then a familiar force of repulsion enveloped him and forcibly took him away from the Wormhole Space.

Back in the passageway, Wang Chen didn’t feel very good.

This second run of the wormhole dungeon was somewhat anticlimactic and not nearly as satisfying as the first time.

Hopefully, there will be a third, fourth…

Opportunity!
