Under the guidance of the Demonic Kraken, the Red Sand Ship did not encounter any more uninvited guests except for the sandstorms along the way.
Leguna didn't know how Chen Rui did it. He just felt that he was lucky. In the face of this absolute strength, his strategy was simply a joke. Whether it was the strength of the desert bandits or the demonic beasts along the way, it was simply vulnerable. If it weren't for sir who saw the tattoo and the little princess Royal Highness's soul was by his side, he would have died like Red Beard and the others.
This was naturally caused by Chen Rui's [Analytical Eyes] and the Demigod's coercion. After successfully passing through this area, Chen Rui released the mental oppression on the Demonic Kraken. The huge earthworm immediately drilled back into the sandpit with relief and disappeared.
The journey in the desert was boring and long. Now, there was no longer the appreciation when they first entered the desert. All they saw was monotonous and endless sand.
Half a month had passed, and the Red Sand Ship had entered the core area of the desert.
This was the result of having Leguna as a guide. Leguna's strength was not worth mentioning in front of Chen Rui, but his "sense of smell" in the desert even impressed Chen Rui. The sand dunes looked the same to Chen Rui, but Leguna could find the key among them and find the right direction.
Everyone had their strengths and weaknesses. If Chen Rui set off alone, he was likely to wander around the periphery of the desert in another half a month.
The sandstorm in the core area was much larger than the periphery. Even the sandmen found it quite difficult to control the ship to move in the specified direction. The demonic beast attacks encountered along the way had also become a lot more frequent. With Chen Rui around, they naturally couldn't pose a threat. It was just that they had never found the moving fantasy oasis.
"The wind has finally subsided." Chen Rui took off his goggles and patted the sand on his cloak. Although his strength was extraordinary, it was inevitable that he was a little tired after continuing to travel in this environment.
Furthermore, they were sitting in the Red Sand, where food and water were guaranteed in the warehouse. It was unimaginable for them to travel through the desert on foot like the historical figures in the other world.
"It'll probably calm down for a while, but it's definitely not the time to be optimistic. In the heart of the desert, we have to be vigilant at all times. Yesterday, when we encountered the scorpions, we almost …" Leguya's voice suddenly stopped, and he stared ahead with a dumbfounded expression.
Chen Rui followed his gaze and saw a slender silhouette faintly condensed in the clouds in the distant sky. It was the body of a woman with long hair and a long robe. Her robe and hair extended into the sky full of white clouds, emitting a faint light as if she was controlling the entire sky.
The moment they saw this scene, they felt a sense of boundless divinity. They felt how insignificant they were, and they could not help but prostrate themselves in worship.
"T-Tessani!" Leguya stammered out a name. He had been in the desert for more than a decade and had heard many rumors about this desert goddess, but this was the first time he had seen her in person.
Chen Rui also remembered the legend of the Chidou Kingdom that little Jim had told him. He did not expect to see the "desert emissary" that the God of Light had bestowed upon him today.
"Sir, should we kneel and pray?" Leguya asked softly.
Chen Rui's eyes were fixed on the silhouette in the clouds. When he heard Leguya's words, he asked, "Do you believe in the God of Light?"
"Uh …" Leguya did not say anything. Although the Cloud Empire was once a holy empire that was favored by the God of Light, it was later eroded by the mysterious church and fell. The church had publicly announced that they had been abandoned by the God of Light, and sent out the Inquisition to constantly encircle the "remnants". As the protector of the royal family, although Leguya was extremely disgusted with the mysterious church, he was also an enemy of the Church of Light, and would not believe in the God of Light.
"True faith requires piety from the heart. If it's just superficial respect, it will definitely cause more dissatisfaction of the gods, so …" Chen Rui looked indifferently at the influence of "Tessanier" in the distant sky, and he added another sentence in his heart – If she is a real god.
Regardless of whether the legend was true or not, whether this Tessani was a god or an emissary. In fact, Chen Rui had actually seen a real god in this world, or more accurately, a dead or dormant god. Even if it was a giant corpse that had lost its vitality and vitality, it was still an unfathomable star region.
The clouds in front of him seemed magnificent, vast, and extraordinary, but compared to the 'corpse', it could only be considered to be a false bravado.
Chen Rui had a feeling that the goddess' eyes did not seem to open.
Although he was not a believer, Leguya was still very respectful of the existence of the gods, so he asked carefully, "My lord, then we …"
In the clouds in front of him, the slender figure gradually distorted and thinned, disappearing in a flash.
This scene made Leguya nervous again. Chen Rui smiled and said, "Our attitude is the best respect for her. Since Tessani has disappeared, let's continue on. At least it is worth the ticket price to see the glory of this' goddess'."
Ticket price? Leguya did not understand what Chen Rui said, but Tessani had disappeared, so there was no point in saying anything.
The Red Sand Ship traveled for a while, and did not encounter any obstacles. Even the wind blowing in their face was very gentle. Leguya did not know if it was an illusion, but he felt a kind of "dead" atmosphere around him was getting thicker and thicker, and he could not help but feel more uneasy.
At this moment, the color of the clouds in the sky gradually darkened, and the clear sky began to dim. Soon, a thick smoke-like black cloud appeared on the distant horizon.
"Black Death Sandstorm!" Leguya's tensed nerves seemed to be flicked by something, and he exclaimed, "This is the most terrifying sandstorm in the Black Hell Desert, known as the Black Death God. It is at least a thousand times stronger than the one we encountered before!"
"Can we still avoid it?" Chen Rui frowned. This was not the first time he encountered a sandstorm, but as Leguya said, the power of this sandstorm was far greater than before.
Not only that, but he could also sense that the sandstorm contained a strange and powerful energy. Even though he was separated by such a distance, he could still feel that his soul was trembling.
An invisible pressure began to accumulate like silk threads, wrapping around his heart.
To be more precise, it was a strange force of will.
"No one can survive in a sandstorm! My lord, if you have any means of escape, use it quickly! " Leguya seemed to feel something, and his body trembled as he recalled the scene before. He shouted, "Tessani! This must be the punishment of the Desert Goddess! "
Chen Rui's expression changed slightly, because the 'will' was accumulating more and more, and even with his current peak demigod soul power, he could not resist it.
The rolling black cloud on the horizon was already 'gradually' approaching. It was actually very fast, and it was getting bigger and bigger in his vision.
The sense of depression in Chen Rui's heart was also constantly magnified. He felt a face with closed eyes in his soul began to become clear, just like the figure in the clouds previously. There was no doubt that this was Tessanier's will.
"It's too late, my lord! Dig a big hole immediately, the deeper the better! Let's hide in it and use all our strength to protect ourselves, and we might have a chance of survival! " Leguya shouted, feeling the pressure in the air increasing, and even his voice was almost drowned out. Seeing that Chen Rui was standing there in a daze, he thought that he was scared out of his wits. He gritted his teeth, took out a shovel, and started digging desperately.
With the horror of the Black Death Sandstorm, even if he followed Leguya's method, it would be difficult to survive, but in his understanding, this was the only way to survive.
The black smoke was approaching in an instant, and its power was extremely terrifying, but the power of the wind element was not the most fatal. The real "Death God" was the spiritual storm containing Tessani's will. This kind of spiritual power had already materialized, and even the Pearl of Mist of the Wind Elemental King could not play a role.
Worship!
Surrender!
Believe!
Gods are invincible.
No matter how powerful you are, you can only look up to the sky.
…
Countless thoughts of surrender appeared in Chen Rui's mind, but the Super System did not react. This was not an ordinary soul erosion, but an idea that Chen Rui had under that kind of pressure. He felt that his willpower was constantly weakened by Tessani's will, and some weak links in his mind were infinitely magnified.
Rather than saying that he was fighting Tessani, it was better to say that he was fighting himself.
"Those who believe in me will live, and those who don't believe in me will die?" Chen Rui took a deep breath, stared at the rolling black clouds that were approaching quickly in front, and finally spoke, "The so-called gods …"
"Sir! Hide in here! " Leguya had already dug a large pit with a depth of more than one meter. He yelled, but even his voice was pushed back into his mouth by the huge pressure. He even staggered and lost his footing.
"No, even if it's a real god …" Chen Rui still said to himself. He still didn't move, but he slowly closed his eyes. His daughter's lovely face appeared in his mind, and his whole body was steaming.
Leguya was about to pull Chen Rui into the pit, but he suddenly found that he couldn't move. Everything around him suddenly became quiet. To be more precise, time stopped, including the overwhelming Black Death in front of him.
This strange stillness was only for a moment. After about 3 or 4 seconds, the flow of time suddenly accelerated several times.
Leguya felt that his entire vision shook violently.
Then, the approaching Black Death seemed to be broken by some unparalleled force.
Is this the illusion of impending death?
Leguya rubbed his eyes hard. In his vision, the terrible Black Death Sandstorm was torn apart like silk in front of the figure.
The whole world seemed to be shaking.
Until the black dust completely dissipated.
The dust settled.
"… If you stand in front of me, I will not hesitate to kill you." Chen Rui slowly retracted his fist. He didn't use Polar Transformation, nor did he use any special moves or equipment. He just used his mind, will, and soul to launch the purest strike.
This strike not only defeated Tessani's will, but also defeated his own self.
Just as he said, even if it was a god, he was not afraid.
Leguya looked at the figure who raised his fist in disbelief. Black Death Sandstorm, the power of a god? It was defeated by a punch!
The biggest impact this punch gave him was not the strength, but the faith and will, the determination to move forward, even if it was a god standing in front of him.
At this moment, Leguya couldn't help but feel a sense of worship, not to some goddess, but to this person.
Her Highness … found a very great man.
A real guardian.
