Chapter 533 A Minor Punishment for Ren Tianpeng, Rules of the Holy Light Swamp
Without hesitation, Yi Ning activated her skill, merging with the Holy Spirit Unicorn and transforming into a blazing, dazzling white light.
At the very tip of the orb of light, the unicorn's horn gleamed with a sharp silver light, like a pointed sword.
Skill: Holy Charge!
Without hesitation, Yi Ning regarded the young man in front of her as an enemy and charged forward at full speed!
Upon seeing this, the young man's expression changed drastically. He clearly did not dare to confront Yi Ning head-on, and he urged the golden eagle beneath him to quickly dodge.
Jiang Chen followed closely behind, also speeding up, and rushed towards the entrance of the dungeon with Yi Ning. However, just as they were about to rush into the dungeon, a dazzling golden light suddenly descended from the sky, blocking Yi Ning's way like a wall.
Yi Ning's skill collided violently with the golden light, shattering it instantly, and her skill dissipated as well.
"Being able to withstand Yi Ning's impact, it seems this skill has considerable defensive capabilities," Jiang Chen thought to himself. The opponent's skill clearly possessed impressive defensive capabilities.
Yi Ning's charge skill was incredibly powerful, even surpassing that of other knights of the same level, yet it was still blocked by her opponent.
The young man reappeared in Yi Ning's sight, still stubbornly blocking her way. "Ning'er, why do you always ignore me?"
Yi Ning's face was as cold as ice. "Ren Tianpeng, if you dare to call me Ning'er again, I will really take action."
Ren Tianpeng seemed completely unconcerned about Yi Ning's threat. He shamelessly continued, "Then tell me, how can I get a chance? Actually, we're a really good match."
Yi Ning coldly replied, "Impossible, get out of the way!"
Ren Tianpeng, however, did not back down. "My team is all ready. If you need to go to the Holy Light Swamp to retrieve the Holy Light, I can help you."
Yi Ning retorted angrily, "I don't need your help!"
Ren Tianpeng said stubbornly, "If I don't help you, you definitely can't beat the BOSS by yourself, let alone get the Holy Light."
"That's my business, get out of my way!" Yi Ning's tone was full of murderous intent.
However, Ren Tianpeng acted like a rogue, shamelessly blocking Yi Ning's way, "Yi Ning, just let me help you this once, please give me a chance."
Yi Ning was so angry that her face turned ashen. If it weren't for the relationship between the Ren family and their family, she would have already taken action. She had a fiery temper and limited patience.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen finally couldn't help but laugh out loud. Although Ren Tianpeng was annoying, he was at least more interesting than An Junzhi; his skin was truly thick-skinned.
Yi Ning looked at Jiang Chen and asked nervously, "Can you help us break through these people's obstruction and enter the dungeon?"
Jiang Chen smiled and nodded, "Sure, but what do you plan to do with these people? Do you need me to teach them a lesson?"
Yi Ning sighed softly, "No need. They are all from the Ren family of Hekou City, and they have been on good terms with our Yi family for generations. It's not good to break ties."
Then, she changed the subject, a sly glint in her eyes, "However, it would be even better if Ren Tianpeng could suffer a bit. That guy has an incredibly thick skin."
Jiang Chen understood Yi Ning's intention and nodded, "Okay, I'll think of a way."
He turned and flew towards the dungeon.
Seeing this, Ren Tianpeng frowned, looked at Jiang Chen's back, and said disdainfully, "You're the helper Yi Ning found? You don't look like much."
Although he couldn't discern Jiang Chen's exact level, since he was there to help Yi Ning with the dungeon, his level couldn't be too high. Ren Tianpeng himself had already reached level 55, and with the seven summoners and their summoned beasts beside him, they were confident they could fight even if their opponent was a level 60 expert.
However, Jiang Chen seemed not to hear him and continued flying forward.
Ren Tianpeng's face darkened, and he shouted, "If you come any closer, don't blame me for being impolite!"
But Jiang Chen still ignored him.
Ren Tianpeng felt his pride had been challenged and whispered to the summoners around him, "Stop him!"
Surprisingly, the summoners stood still without making any move.
Ren Tianpeng looked at them in confusion, only to see that their faces showed fear, as if they had seen something terrifying.
He followed their gaze and saw that a layer of white bones suddenly emerged from Jiang Chen's body, as if he were a death god emerging from hell.
Those summoners, along with their summoned beasts, were all rendered immobile beneath this layer of bones, and could only watch helplessly as Jiang Chen walked past them.
Ren Tianpeng was startled and wanted to resist, but it was too late. He felt an indescribable pain coming from his mind, as if a thousand needles were piercing his nerves.
He screamed and curled up on the ground, trembling.
He watched helplessly as Jiang Chen and Yi Ning walked into the dungeon entrance and disappeared from sight.
The excruciating pain lasted for a long time before gradually subsiding. Ren Tianpeng caught his breath, his face pale as he stared at the entrance, his eyes filled with both anger and fear.
Before long, the bones on the summoners' bodies also dissipated. They all got up from the ground and looked at Ren Tianpeng, asking, "Young Clan Leader, are you alright?" Ren Tianpeng didn't speak, but just stared coldly at the entrance, as if trying to see through it.
"Should we inform the clan chief about this?"
"Young clan leader, we were all just restrained by a mysterious force."
Ren Tianpeng shook his head slightly, "No need. The other party had no intention of harming me; they were just giving me a warning."
"The power of this soul attack is simply unbelievable. Who exactly is this person?"
"Yi Ning has actually made the acquaintance of such a remarkable person."
"You guys, go and investigate this person's background. He's skilled in soul attacks, has powerful binding techniques, and is so young..."
Ren Tianpeng carefully recalled the characteristics of that mysterious figure, knowing that such a person must be renowned among the human race.
At this moment, one of his subordinates cautiously spoke up, "Young clan leader, I suspect I might know his identity." "Who is it?" Ren Tianpeng asked.
"The young patriarch has been in seclusion in the family's secret realm for the past six months and is unaware of what is happening outside. Recently, a peerless genius has emerged among the human race."
Ren Tianpeng looked puzzled. He had indeed been cut off from the outside world for the past six months and was unaware of what was happening outside.
"Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush," Ren Tianpeng urged.
The man quickly replied, "Yes, if I'm not mistaken, he should be Jiang Chen, the youngest three-star divine general in human history."
Ren Tianpeng exclaimed in surprise, "What did you say! A three-star divine general! But he's clearly not even level 60, how is that possible?"
The man explained, "Now the entire human race is praising the deeds of General Jiang. The young clan leader can easily find out by asking around."
Ren Tianpeng did not doubt his words. After pondering for a moment, he said, "Let's go back first."
"What about Miss Yi Ning?" Ren Tianpeng said decisively. "Let's leave Miss Yi Ning's matter aside for now. If this person is really that divine general, how dare I provoke him so easily?"
"Go, go, go!"
The group activated their teleportation stones and quickly left this place of trouble.
……
Holy Light Swamp dungeon, Hell difficulty.
The instance is filled with swamps, each shimmering with a holy white light, unlike any other swamp.
Narrow passages have formed between the swamps.
Various kinds of plants grow on the edge of the swamp.
There were beautiful flowers, lush green grass, and mostly small trees.
These trees are no more than a meter tall, lacking lush foliage but possessing thick trunks. They stand there silently, like guardians of the earth, witnessing every challenge and adventure.
The branches drooped to the ground like snakes, digging deep into the swamp, their length seemingly unfathomable.
Yi Ning said cautiously, "The rule of this instance is that we can't fly around at will. We must travel along the narrow paths in the swamp."
“These shrubs are very cunning in their attack methods,” she added. “Their branches can quickly entangle a person, and once you are bound by them, it is very difficult to break free.”
Jiang Chen frowned slightly and asked, "Is it really impossible to fly here?"
He didn't sense any anti-flying force, which puzzled him.
Yi Ning shook her head and explained, "It's not a complete ban on flying, but once you take to the air, you'll be subjected to powerful attacks from the Holy Light Swamp." "Those holy light attacks are extremely fierce and almost impossible to dodge," she added.
Jiang Chen's curiosity was piqued, and he decided to give it a try.
He unfurled his lightning-fast undead wings and slowly rose into the air.
As soon as he left the ground, a dazzling, pure white holy light struck him.
Jiang Chen's skeletal armor flashed a bright light, successfully blocking the attack.
Holy light, like a searchlight, shot out from a nearby swamp, relentlessly attacking Jiang Chen.
An attack from a swamp posed no threat to Jiang Chen; he could almost completely ignore it.
However, as he tried to fly higher, more holy light shot out from the other swamps, and the angle of the attack changed accordingly, as if keeping pace with him.
After he had flown more than ten meters off the ground, three more beams of white light struck him simultaneously. The four swamps launched their attacks at the same time, and the power of the four attacks was not simply superimposed, but increased exponentially.
Jiang Chen's skeletal armor creaked under the intense attack, seemingly on the verge of collapsing.
Jiang Chen realized the gravity of the situation and quickly landed back on the ground. The moment he touched down, all the attacks vanished.
"The attacks from this Holy Light Swamp are indeed peculiar," Jiang Chen said in a low voice.
Yi Ning nodded and reminded, "We might be able to withstand a single holy light attack, but as the number of attacks increases, the attack power will rise rapidly."
"Therefore, we'd better choose to go through here on the ground," she concluded.
Jiang Chen agreed wholeheartedly and decided to follow Yi Ning's advice, proceeding along the path through the swamp.
