Chapter 329 - Falling Into The Enemy’s Trap
As Ling Chen and the Primordial Shuras were making their way to the Shadowless Council base, they would occasionally hear the growling and roaring of numerous powerful and ferocious beasts, shaking the world like a tsunami.
Even though Ling Chen wasn't afraid of confrontation, he made sure to avoid them. He didn't want to get caught in some unnecessary and mindless battle. His main goal was the Shadowless Council.
Aside from that, they would occasionally see giant birds and other avian beasts, thousands of meters long, flying in the sky. Their frightening cry filled the sky. These avian beasts were so big that one would think that they were flying islands at first glance.
At the same time, they were also the sounds of numerous ferocious beasts fighting in the distance.
Listening to the growling of those giant beasts in the distance and watching those flying beasts flying in the sky, Ling Chen felt his heart pounding.
It was as if he was back in ancient times where numerous primordial beasts were used to roam and rule the land.
For some reason, he was not only unafraid, but there was an eager feeling, like a fish diving in a vast ocean and birds soaring in the boundless sky.
A world like that was the territory where a person like him could truly run unhindered and be true to himself.
After traveling through the endless forest filled with ferocious beasts for more than an hour, Ling Chen suddenly stopped.
At this moment, he was standing on top of a giant baren mountain peak while looking at what seemed to be a small city in the distance.
Though Ling Chen referred to it as a city, it had no semblance to a city. There were neither towering walls nor patrolling experts at this place.
The entire place was just a small landscape with no walls or boundaries. Inside, there were numerous huge pavilions that were several meters tall. Giant buildings were everywhere in this place.
Aside from that, the entire city seemed to be protected by a huge formation that looked like a translucent dome. It covered the entire city like an umbrella.
Even though it was Ling Chen's first time seeing such formation, it could tell that it was to prevent those giant beasts to enter the city.
"So, this is the base of the Shadowless Council. It looks bigger than I imagined." Murmured Ling Chen himself.
After knowing that the base of the Shadowless Council was located in this strange planet within the 8th Extreme Void Belt, Ling Chen always thought that it was a giant building or giant cave mansion.
He never thought that it was a freaking city. It seemed like things have gotten a little more complicated.
"Alright, here's what we gonna do. I'm gonna try to infiltrate the city and try to get some information." Said Ling Chen.
"As for you guys, I'll put you all within my inner world and when we are ready to attack the Shadowless Council, I'll take you all out." He added.
Even though Ling Wei and the Dark Primordial Shuras were a little reluctant, they still agreed to Ling Chen's proposal. Not that they had a choice anyway.
If it was for them, they would have already stormed the city and started slaughtering the people inside. However, Ling Chen didn't have the same idea as them.
After recalling the Dark and Light Primordial Shuras within his inner worlds, Ling Chen descended the mountain and was headed toward the Shadowless City.
As the city was very close, it didn't take Ling Chen long to arrive in front of the giant formation that protected the city.
Standing in front of the translucent barrier, Ling Chen could tell that it was extremely powerful. It was several diameters thick and seemed to have also embedded deep into the ground.
Even if he were us to use his full strength, he might not be able to break it. Furthermore, doing that would also alarm the enemy. Nonetheless, Ling Chen didn't plan to use brute force to bypass the translucent in the first place.
Not only the translucent barrier was powerful, but it was also very complicated. As such, Ling Chen didn't dare to use his divine sense to analyze it.
He knew that from the memories of the Great Luo Martial God that some powerful formation would go off if one were to use his divine sense to analyze it or try to crack it.
Even though the barrier was very powerful and complicated, Ling Chen didn't look worried at all as he had his own way to deal with it.
Buzz!
As Ling Chen was looking at the translucent barrier, a buzzing sound could be heard as his Azure Divine Eye suddenly shone brightly.
His Azure Divine Eye was shining so bright that it could illuminate and peer into all crevices of the world.
In this blink of an eye, he was no longer Ling Chen. He was like the ruler of the high heavens. No secrets and profundities could elude his gaze.
A few seconds after Ling Chen used his Azure Divine Eye's power, something amazing happened.
Like the opening of a wound, a giant gap suddenly appeared on the translucent barrier in front of him.
Looking at the giant gap, Ling Chen couldn't but smile slightly before quickly walking into it. After passing through the gap, the translucent barrier shook slightly as it also closed on itself like a wound.
After entering the city, Ling Chen was surprised to find out that the city was completely empty. There wasn't even a soul in the city. It was like a ghost town.
"Why is this place so empty? I'm pretty sure that's the Shadowless Council base. I could still feel the presence of the Demonic Shura at the center of the city." Ling Chen murmured to himself as he was walking through the empty street of the city.
Seeing that he hasn't seen anyone even after walking for more than ten minutes within the city, Ling Chen suddenly released his divine sense to cover more ground.
However, the moment he did, his expression suddenly changed as he blurted out." Shit! I can't believe I fell into that bastard's trap."
Before Ling Chen's voice could even fade away, the empty streets of the Shadowless City were suddenly swarming with people.
Not only they were all wearing a weird and peculiar black and white mask that covered their entire faces, but they were also wearing the same pitch-black robe that was imprinted with a dark red devilish pattern.
At this moment, Ling Chen was completely surrounded. Even the top of the buildings and pavilions were also filled with people.
