After walking in to the depths of the Cursed Land, they began to encounter more and more curses.
This was quite expected, and the deeper they went, the stronger the curses would become as well.
When they reached the depths, they would even encounter some terrifying existences above high level.
Facing such existences, Chen Heng naturally could not let Chen Rou and the others deal with them, and he had to act.
Wathcing him deal with those curses, everyone else was completely dumbfounded.
On the way, no matter how powerful the curses were, they were not a match for Chen Heng.
As Chen Heng advanced, golden flames covered the ground, turning the surroundings into a sea of flames.
The holy flames incinerated the curses, not leaving behind even a trace.
Within the golden flames, the powerful and savage curses all became dust.
As Chen Heng and his party went deeper and deeper, an existence that was slumbering and recovering its strength seemed to sense something.
An incredibly pair of red eyes suddenly opened, giving off light.
The terrifying curse hidden in the depths of the Cursed Land awakened.
“It’s woken up, eh…” On the way, Chen Heng sensed something and thought to himself.
Looking into the distance, Chen Heng gave a faint smile.
It seemed that after reaching here, that curse had realised something and began to awaken.
Then again, that was to be expected.
After all, their actions had completely turned its home upside down.
If it did not awaken by now, Chen Heng would wonder if there was something wrong with it.
Following this, Chen Heng and his party continued to advance.
“It’s ahead…”
Soon, they reached a massive ruins.
Arriving here, Yang Cheng’s expression became complicated as he said, “We’ve come back…”
“Indeed…” Standing by his side, Liang Xiao also spoke softly.
They were quite familiar with this place, as they had come twice before.
The first time, they had snuck here to obtain a Cursed Item.
They had been quite lucky that time—that terrifying curse had not awakened, and had still been sleeping.
Otherwise, even if they had 10 lives, they would not have survived.
The second time, they had come here with Chen Rou and the others.
That time, they had been quite unlucky, and had been there when the Origin Curse had awoken. If it wans’t for Chen Heng, they would not have survived.
Now, it was the third time.
Of the three times, this was the easiest and least fearful time.
With Chen Heng by their side, no matter what happened, they knew that they would be in good hands.
This kind of feeling was incredibly nice. Otherwise, with their previous experiences, they would have been terrified upon arriving here.
“If we continue on, we will arrive at the core of this Cursed Land…” Chen Rou said softly as she looked at Chen Heng, “That is most likely where our target is…”
“I understand.” Chen Heng smiled as he nodded, “I’ll be careful.”
Chen Rou looked at him with a complicated gaze. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but did not in the end.
She wanted to convince Chen Heng not to advance and to not do such a dangerous thing.
However, apart from Chen Heng, who could do this?
There was no one else.
Thinking to there, she could only sigh and did not try to persuade him otherwise.
Time gradually passed.
“Wait for me here.” Looking at Chen Rou and the others, Chen Heng said softly.
After saying this, he headed forwards.
Looking at Chen Heng, the others did not say anything, and remained where they were.
This was something they had agreed on.
The point of these people was to just bring Chen Heng here.
After that, they just needed to stay here and wait for him.
After all, with their strength, if they went in, they would not be of any help. Instead, they would just make trouble for Chen Heng.
They understood this, so they did not try to force things.
As they watched on, Chen Heng slowly headed forwards before gradually disappearing.
A wave of black fog came from the distance, obscuring their vision.
In the darkness, they could not see anything. They could only see a clump of golden light still advancing.
Seeing this, many people felt quite complicated.
“Let’s find somewhere to hide…” After a while, Yang Cheng sighed and said, “Soon, this place will become a battlefield.”
“Alright.” The others fell silent for a moment before nodding and agreeing.
Soon, they found a safe place to hide.
Elsewhere, Chen Heng slowly advanced.
His surroundings were covered with heavy darkness, and if it was anyone else, they would not be able to see anything.
However, to Chen Heng, he was not affected, and he could still see clearly.
He could see creatures hidden in the black fog, as well as the city ruins in the distance.
It seemed that in the past, this Cursed Land had been a prosperous city.
It was just that this city had been infected with curse energy, and had become a large Cursed Land.
The creatures that had lived in it had also changed, becoming curses.
This place had become a place of death.
However, to Chen Heng, the history of this place was not important.
What was important was the enemy in front of him.
From what Chen Heng could sense, a massive will was awakeing and had locked onto him.
“Did you sense me?” Chen Heng was not surprised and grinned, “Looks like you’ve been looking forwards to this too… since that’s the case, come.”
He said calmly as his smile became colder, “Let’s see how much you’ve progressed over the past half a year.”
Boom!
As his words sounded out, explosions sounded out in the surroundings.
In that moment, it was as if thunder continuously blasted out. The earth trembled as the sky seemed to tear. It was as if the entire world was infuriated by Chen Heng’s words.
A massive hand tore through the ground.
Boundless darkness appeared, weighing down on Chen Heng.
Moreover, this was just the signs of a certain existence awakening.
Its aura was incredibly powerful, and fusing with the surrounding world, it resulted in such shocking scenes.
Massive breathing sounds resembling thunder continuously sounded out.
When Chen Heng opened his eyes again and the darkness retreated, a gigantic, terrifying existence had appeared before him.
Just standing there, it was tens of thousands of metres tall, and seemed incredibly terrifying.
Its red eyes gave off bloodthirstiness and violence as it stared at Chen Heng.
The two of them stood at the centre of this world.
It was just that compared to the giant, Chen Heng was like a tiny ant.
Such a massive difference was enough to make anyone tremble.
However, Chen Heng laughed.
“Looks like I gave you quite a heavy injury back then. Even now, your arm hasn’t recovered..”
Looking at the giant’s missing left arm, Chen Heng grinned.
It was him who had cut that arm off half a year ago, and even now, it had not fully healed.
Under ordinary circumstances, this did not make sense.
For existences like them, let alone losing an arm, even if their entire body was destroyed, they could quickly recover.
Having a body filled with law energy was no simple thing.
For existences like them, they could quickly recover in a single breath.
However, this was not the case for the Origin Curse right now.
The reason for this was because of the severity of the injury.
Back then, Chen Heng had not only cut its arm off, but had used the simulator to steal its law energy.
A physical wound was not a big deal, but the loss of law energy was fatal.
This meant that its entire body had lost some of its essence, and recovering was far more difficult than recovering from ordinary wounds.
It was because of this the Origin Curse had not been able to recover even after half a year.
It would take the Origin Curse at least a few decades to completely recover from that battle half a year ago. However, Chen Heng would not give it this time.
Boom!
Thunder continuously sounded out, as if the heavens had been enraged. The curse energy in the surroundings formed massive, savage faces, expressing their fury.
The Origin Curse looked even more savage, and its red eyes were filled with immense killing intent. Anyone who saw it would feela chill in their bones, and would not dare to look at it directly.
However, Chen Heng was not one of such people.
Facing those berserk eyes, he calmly looked back before waving his hand.
His actions were very soft, and yet they seemed to be able to turn mountains and rivers upside down, and summon the sun, moon and stars.
Bright light exploded out and resulted in a massive explosion, as if the heavens and earth had shattered.
The result of this clash was the Origin Curse stumbling back many steps.
If anyone saw this, they would feel immense disbelief.
The Origin Curse was like an enormous mountain, and Chen Heng was not even one-ten thousandth of its size.
And yet, after that clash, it was the Origin Curse that had been pushed back, not Chen Heng.
“Roarr!”
In that moment, a terrifying roar sounded out.
After being pushed back by Chen Heng, the Origin Curse was infuriated and drew the curse energy in the surroundings to form a massive and corporeal curtain of darkness.
Following this, it roared and its body gave off light as it revealed its monstrous power.
This time, the Origin Curse did not hold back at all, releasing all of its power and trying to suppress Chen Heng as quickly as possible.
Perhaps just then it sensed Chen Heng’s threat and understood how terrifying he was.
After half a year, its wounds had not healed yet, and yet Chen Heng had become much stronger. This made it feel incredibly shocked, causing it to instinctively go all-out.
Terrifying energy surged out.
Small cracks appeared in the space itself, looking like small pieces of shattered glass.
This was the boundary of the Cursed Land, and it could not withstand this terrifying aura and began to shatter.
The entire Cursed Land shook, and no matter where one was, they would be able to see a savage monster descend from the sky as it roared.
A hand slammed onto the ground, causing the surroundings to tremble.
Chen Heng’s expression was calm. Facing this, he just slammed a hand against the ground, causing the divine energy to explode out like a volcanic eruption.
The power from the Origin Curse was blocked by him, and none of it remained.
Otherwise, this power from the Origin Curse would have been enough to destroy this entire Cursed Land.
Chen Heng himself would be fine, but the rest of his party would have all perished.
Boundless light appeared, spreading out and cleansing this Cursed Land.
Massive amounts of black fog scattered and dissipated.
At that moment, a massive, holy image could be seen, and in the distance, Chen Rou and the others could sense the changes.
“Is this Cursed Land going to collapse?” Hiding in a ruins and sensing the tremors, they felt quite anxious.
Chen Rou looked up and could clearly see the enormous figure of the Origin Curse, as well as that light.
It seemed that the battle had begun.
The fight was incredibly monstrous, and seemed like it could destroy his entire Cursed Land.
Sensing this, everyone’s expressions were quite grim, and they had a bad feeling.
