None of the people present had expected this to happen.
They had scouted this place many times before and had confirmed that there was no threat here, which was why they had stayed here to discuss.
However, they had never thought that in just a few moments, a curse would appear and wreak havoc here.
A formless tentacle viciously smashed towards Chen Rou's body.
A formless energy covered her and locked onto her.
From the looks of it, it seemed that because of the curse item, its target was not anyone else but Chen Rou.
Looking at the scene before her, Chen Rou's pupils constricted; she could feel a dangerous aura descend.
The aura that appeared in front of him was exceptionally terrifying. Although the tentacle looked ordinary, the essence that it revealed was terrifying, and it was impossible to free oneself from it.
The nature of this Curse Beast was surprisingly strong. According to their standards, it could at least be considered a high-level Curse Beast.
A high-grade curse item's essence was incredibly powerful and could fight against a curse item.
At the crucial moment, Chen Rou's body moved backwards.
At the same time, a grimacing mask appeared on her body and stood in front of her to block the attack.
The devilish mask looked incredibly strange, and there seemed to be figures appearing on it with all sorts of different expressions. It looked quite unique.
However, at that moment, it seemed to sense the terror coming from ahead of it, and streaks of bloody tears flowed out of the devilish mask and dripped onto the ground.
As this process progressed, the surroundings seemed to undergo a subtle change.
A layer of black fog covered the area and turned into a screen that blocked in front of Chen Rou.
A malevolent face appeared in front of him.
Then, a surging power surged forth like a tsunami, rushing forward continuously, almost as if it was going to drown everyone directly.
The barrier formed by the devilish mask was quickly destroyed.
Chen Rou's face became incredibly pale and a faint black aura appeared.
"The curse item has been destroyed!"
By the side, Yang Cheng gritted his teeth and felt quite shocked; he had never expected this.
Cursed items were crystallized from the power of curses and were incredibly unique existences.
Using this kind of existence, even if it was just an ordinary person, if the method was right, they could also activate the power contained in the cursed item and obtain great power.
This kind of power is usually very powerful, enough to make a Cursed User of a higher rank than you.
As an official, the cursed item that Chen Rou carried with her was even more famous in this circle and had a great reputation.
But now, this cursed item had just taken form, and it was already destroyed?
What the hell is this …
His face instantly turned pale. At this moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind.
However, his reaction was equally fast. He turned around in an instant and rushed forward with one hand, wanting to block the arm that stretched out from the void.
His body rapidly changed as he moved. Scales began to appear on the surface of his body, one after another. It looked very special, as if he was weaving a person.
The aura on his body also changed because of this, and because of this, it directly carried the aura of the curse.
At this point, he wanted to go up and buy some time for Chen Rou.
However, in the darkness, the unknown curse hidden in the nothingness did not pay any attention to it, only reaching out.
Power that could topple mountains and overturn seas flooded out, rushing into Yang Cheng's body and pushing him away.
A suppression that came from the difference in cultivation appeared.
Without exception, everyone present could not help but shudder when they sensed this aura.
For them to be able to come here, they were all Cursed Users.
The so-called Cursed Users were people who had planted a part of the curse in themselves and fused with the curse, obtaining part of the curse's power.
The Cursed Seed gave them the power to resist the curse, but it also put them in a passive position.
In the face of a higher level curse, the curse seeds in their bodies were directly suppressed. At this time, their entire bodies seemed to be in a daze, completely unable to move.
Because of that, no one was able to block Chen Rou's attack.
"Damn it!"
The massive arm came closer and closer.
The curse's aura and disgusting strangeness seemed to be right in front of them and could not be ignored.
Looking at this scene, Chen Rou's pupils constricted, and many thoughts flashed through her mind.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind one by one, but they quickly faded away in the next moment.
Just like the legends, when a person was about to die, all of their memories would appear in their mind, and they would use a special method to quickly recall their entire life.
Chen Rou felt like this at this moment.
Many thoughts flashed through her mind, and before her, the Cursed User moved very quickly.
A massive arm smashed towards her, and it seemed like it wanted to crush her to death.
However, it would be best if nothing happened.
The situation had clearly reached a dangerous point.
Even Chen Rou herself did not think that she could continue to live.
It was just that at this moment, an additional power intervened.
A faint light flickered.
Under the gloomy sky, the radiance seemed very dim, but it was also very conspicuous. It was especially so at this moment. It was like a bright lamp in the darkness, extremely conspicuous.
In front of Chen Rou's chest, as if sensing the danger before her, the golden pendant shone brightly, releasing its own power.
A faint golden light spread out.
The procedures that Chen Heng had set up began to appear.
Massive amounts of power flowed out like an ocean, like a roaring volcano …
Boom!
A light sound rang out as the Cursed User's power started to disappear.
It was as if sunlight was shining on fog, and the black fog quickly disappeared.
Then, in all directions, the darkness that was originally hidden in the surroundings began to disappear.
Light sounds could be heard from ahead.
Yang Cheng instinctively looked ahead.
In that place, a brand-new Cursed Beast had already appeared. At this moment, its appearance was revealed before them.
However, this Cursed User no longer looked like before.
It still looked the same, but its entire body was frozen. Its body was melting, and after being touched by that light, its entire body started to dissipate.
"Arghh!!"
A sharp cry sounded out from ahead, sounding incredibly clear.
Following this, the Cursed User completely collapsed and disappeared.
Everything seemed to have ended, and everything seemed to have calmed down.
Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone calmed down.
At that moment, their gazes were all focused on Chen Rou's body.
More accurately speaking, they were looking at the golden pendant in front of her chest.
"What is this?"
"A Cursed User?"
Looking at the golden pendant in front of her, everyone looked hesitant, not daring to be certain.
Indeed.
From its appearance, the golden pendant did not look like a Cursed User at all.
Cursed objects were born from the power of curses. Even though they looked a little different from ordinary curses, they were still essentially the same type of thing.
As such, if a Cursed User was used for a long time, they would also be corroded by curse power, resulting in all sorts of consequences.
These things looked dark and gloomy on the outside.
However, the golden pendant in front of them gave off a resplendent light.
The light was incredibly bright and pure, and it seemed to give off a power that could calm one's soul. Just looking at it and being covered by this light, one could not help but feel moved.
Without a doubt, this was an extremely unique and sacred existence. At first glance, it was like a legendary holy object, and it was exceptionally eye-catching.
Such a thing was obviously not as simple as a cursed object.
"This thing …"
Looking at the pendant, Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao's expressions slightly changed. They felt that it was quite strange, "Why does it look so familiar …"
It was not just familiar.
Fundamentally speaking, this golden pendant was obtained from the two of them.
After obtaining this Cursed User, Chen Heng had used his divine power to modify this Cursed User into this.
After being modified by divine power, even though the cursed item had changed greatly, its appearance did not change much from before. It was just that its color had changed a lot.
Because of this, they felt a sense of familiarity and an indescribable feeling of déjà vu.
Standing where they were, they looked at each other. They could both sense that something was amiss.
Two Extraordinary items that were exactly the same.
If this was a coincidence, it would be too much of a coincidence.
It was even more likely that these two items were the same thing to begin with.
As for why the Cursed User item had become like this …
This question would most likely be asked to the person who had this thing before.
By now, Yang Cheng and Liang Xiao knew that the changes to this item most likely had something to do with Chen Heng.
From the power that Chen Heng had displayed, it was indeed possible that he could do this.
The only thing that made them feel confused was Chen Heng's motive for doing this.
Why did he change the Cursed User item and why did he give it to Chen Rou?
What was their relationship?
Various thoughts flashed through their minds.
However, before they could ask any questions, someone else spoke.
"Captain …"
Standing where he was, an old man looked at Chen Rou. Looking at the golden pendant dancing in the air, he could not help but reveal a fiery light in his eyes. "What is this pendant?"
Is it also a Cursed User? "
Everyone present was a Cursed User, so they could sense the power of the golden pendant.
To them, the golden pendant in front of them was like a small sun, and it was extraordinarily powerful.
The light shone on their bodies, shocking them, and at the same time, the curse power on their bodies began to dissipate.
Even some of the people who were affected by the curse and were on the verge of collapsing recovered after feeling the baptism of this power and regained their sobriety.
This sort of special effect was not something that an ordinary Cursed User item could have.
Holy item.
Looking at this pendant, a term appeared in their minds.
To people like them, anything that could purify curses and expel the power of curses was undoubtedly a true holy item.
This light was incredibly holy and resplendent, and as it shined on these people's bodies, they could not help but feel moved.
"Good item …"
Many people looked at the golden pendant with fiery gazes.
If it wasn't for the current situation and Chen Rou's identity, many people would have directly tried to snatch it.
"Pay attention to your surroundings …"
Sensing everyone's gazes, Chen Rou opened her eyes and coldly replied without explaining anything.
She felt quite shocked by the changes to the golden pendant and instinctively felt quite confused.
She did not understand this sort of new power and was not very clear about it.
However, this did not stop her from intimidating these people and dispelling their thoughts.
Now was not the time to explain.
If she blindly expressed her confusion, it would only make these people greedy.
As for this thing's power, if she could survive, she would naturally ask Chen Heng about it.
Right now, none of that was important.
What was important was the power that this thing brought.
"The path ahead … seems to have opened up …"
Standing by the side, Liang Xiao looked ahead and paused before coming to his senses.
Following the direction he pointed, everyone present turned their gazes in that direction.
There was a deep black fog there.
In the deep darkness, a wisp of golden radiance shone, forcibly breaking open a path in this place.
In the distance, illusory scenes appeared.
They were scenes of a city.
The entire city had turned into an illusory scene, and it was incredibly clear.
But at this moment, a black fog was spreading around the city, gradually enveloping the entire city.
"This is …"
Looking at the scene before them, everyone's expression changed greatly. An ominous feeling rose in their hearts.
"Is this … trying to tell us something?
"Or are you trying to give us a show of strength?"
Chen Rou's expression was quite unsightly, and she realized something.
Ahead, the illusory city gradually became hazy and twisted.
Following this, a new scene appeared, and it was replaced by a massive savage-looking face.
In the eyes of the crowd, the face in front of them was exceptionally hideous. Every vein and vein on the face seemed so real.
And at this moment, he slowly rose into the sky. His appearance was revealed in midair, and vaguely, he seemed to be revealing a hideous smile.
Just like that, it started to laugh savagely and terrifyingly, as if it was mocking something.
Following this, the entire cursed land violently trembled.
The sound of the air being torn could be heard.
Then, around the cursed land, huge holes appeared one after another.
Dense Curse Power erupted out, and compared to before, it had become hundreds of times more powerful.
The powerful Curse Power covered the surroundings, making it difficult for people to breathe.
"Damn it!"
"What a terrifying curse power …"
Looking at the scene that enveloped them, everyone's expression changed drastically.
Curse Power was incredibly infectious, and if ordinary people came in contact with it, it was easy for their dark thoughts to come out, causing their personalities to change and become completely different.
On the other hand, because of the Cursed Seed planted in their bodies, their resistance to the power of curses was stronger than that of ordinary people.
However, even so, this resistance was only to a certain degree.
Once it exceeded a certain degree, even the Cursed Ones would not be able to do anything.
Being in the cursed land, the density of the curse power in the surroundings was already extremely high to begin with.
However, at this moment, as the cursed land erupted, the density of the curse power in the surroundings instantly increased by a hundredfold.
This sort of increase was simply impossible for them to survive.
Even though they were Cursed Ones, they were absolutely helpless in the face of such a degree of Curse Power.
There was no need for those curses to act. It would only take a moment at most for them to collapse under the corrosion of the power of the curses. There would be no accidents.
Light once again shined out in front of her.
Standing there and looking at this scene, Chen Rou's face was somewhat pale, and she felt a sense of powerlessness.
Facing this level of threat, even she could not do anything and could only obediently wait for death.
She felt quite pessimistic as she thought to herself.
However, in front of her, the golden pendant was still giving off light.
Gentle and clear golden light shone down, forming a barrier that protected Chen Rou and the others from the invasion of the curse power from the outside world.
The Curse Power continuously surged out in all directions.
However, at this moment, it was no longer able to affect Chen Rou and the others, nor was it able to break through the layer of divine power protection. It could only be helplessly blocked outside.
The crisis was over.
Everyone let out a sigh of relief.
No matter what, they had managed to escape with their lives this time.
At the very least, they would not die from the Curse Power's explosion.
However, what happened next made them feel incredibly nervous.
In front of them, as the Curse Power continued to erupt, a large area of black shadows covered the surroundings.
The existences hidden within the Curse Power were all incredibly massive. Each of them was like a giant, incredibly massive and terrifying.
At that moment, as the Curse Power continued to erupt, they slowly advanced towards the city in front of them.
In the end, the Curse Land's explosion had not been stopped.
