Chapter 856: The Wondrous Forbidden Land.

Sigma_ SSins

This forbidden land looked wondrous.

It had mountains, lakes, ponds, ruins of palaces, and withered dried trees and foliage.

However, everything was floating in the gloomy air. Shi Yan couldn鈥檛 see the sun, moon, or stars. Perhaps the thick mist layer hindered him from viewing them at all.

Shi Yan saw three massive mountains in the star area in front of him. They were cut flat, floating in the void. There were some ruins of shabby and tattered palaces. There was no life energy fluctuation on these mountains. There were only some gray, withered trees and bushes.

The three massive mountains looked more like three whole continents. Behind them was an immense ocean, which also floated in the air. Some islets were scattered here and there in the ocean.

The area further behind the small islands were shrouded in gray mist. Shi Yan couldn鈥檛 see what was there.

Whether it was the grand mountain, the vast sea or the void, barriers, were set up that restricted and protected the areas. Some were natural, but others had the touch of humans.

Shi Yan stood behind a mountain and watched the scenery, his face solemn.

It was because he could feel a formidable energy in the ravines between the three big mountains. It seemed like an invisible barrier existed. Anyway, Ka Tuo鈥檚 aura was reported from one of the islets in the ocean behind the mountains.

Frowning, Shi Yan didn鈥檛 linger any longer. He flew toward the ravines behind the three mountains.

Boom Boom Boom!

Countless lightning strikes shot out from the sky, weaving into a thick mesh of electronic nets. The thunder boomed ear-piercingly, continually exploding.

Countless electricity strikes like snakes and barriers entangled as if they wanted to crush his God Body shortly.

"Get out here!"

Slightly discolored, Shi Yan sent a flow of his Soul Consciousness into the heaven flame soul altar.

The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame flashed, releasing the fierce lightning magnetic field in front of Shi Yan鈥檚 chest.

Lightning strikes covered the sky, but the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame guided them, changing their directions. They went past Shi Yan, shooting to a place far behind his back.

"What鈥檚 going on?" Shi Yan asked the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame.

"The natural earth and heaven magnetic field here is influenced by an intent domain and remnant of unknown energy. I can鈥檛 absorb them. I can only deviate them." The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame seemed to be shaken. It continued with regret, "It鈥檚 a pity that the lightning has so many dregs. Otherwise, I would be able to absorb them. If I can take them in, I can ascend one level. It鈥檚 so unfortunate, really."

"Okay, control the lightning strikes. I want to get through this place."

Sending his thoughts and looking at the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame release his unique aura to deviate the lightning strikes attacking him, Shi Yan immediately jumped into the lightning net, gliding through the gorge between the mountains.

Boom Boom Boom!

Another horrifying tremor appeared near him. A purple lightning strike struck from the sky. When it was about to reach his head, it missed and struck the place behind him.

That purple lightning wasn鈥檛 similar to the lightning he had survived from the beginning. It aimed at his soul altar. It seemed like the lightning was specialized in breaking God Soul. At the moment the purple lightning appeared, Shi Yan鈥檚 God Soul trembled anxiously.

"So scary!"

The World Extinguishing Thunder Flame was also scared. "That lightning strike is the soul-destroying one. Any life with Soul Consciousness will become its target if it comes near. You鈥檙e lucky that you have me. Otherwise, your God Soul wouldn鈥檛 be able to resist it. It could burn your God Soul directly."

Listening to him, Shi Yan鈥檚 face got colder and he felt a chill all over his body.

It was true that the forbidden lands in the Land of God Punishment had layers upon layers of dangers. It wasn鈥檛 a surprise as to why the three big forces couldn鈥檛 clean up the pirates. Quite the contrary, they had to bear great losses.

The pirates stood for so many years. Besides Fei Lan鈥檚 protection in the Heaven Punishment, they had depended on countless barriers and restrictions around the place to survive. They were familiar with those forbidden areas. After years of exploring, they knew the characteristics of those places and made them their shelters.

The three big forces were not used to these places. If they made even a mistake, the magical power of the forbidden lands could kill even Original God Realm experts.

This was also the reason why many madmen and thugs in the Raging Flame Star Area would come to the Land of God Punishment after committing so many crimes.

As long as they hid in those restricted areas, others wouldn鈥檛 be able to use Soul Consciousness to sense them. Entering those places was like joining a vast maze. Besides just being unable to finding their target, they would end up caught within some barrier for a long time. It wasn鈥檛 worth it.

"Be careful. This place is really strange. Man-made and natural barriers are everywhere. If you fell in there, I can help you with Lightning power. But if it鈥檚 another kind of power, even if I want to help you, I can鈥檛 do anything," reminded the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame.

After landing on Shi Yan鈥檚 heaven flame soul altar, this flame had settled down. It became content with his lot as he had received many benefits from Shi Yan.

It didn鈥檛 yell or scream to ask it to leave anymore. Through Shi Yan鈥檚 soul care, it had many good benefits. The energy overflowing when Shi Yan devoured the soul altar had given the heaven flames many good benefits. Some of them had reached the next level.

Going with Shi Yan, it didn鈥檛 need to worry about being absorbed. It could also have the chance to use Shi Yan鈥檚 energy to improve and ascend to another high level. What else should it make a fuss about?

As it had no knot in his soul, the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame considered the heaven flame soul altar its dwelling place. Naturally, it would assist Shi Yan honestly, as it didn鈥檛 want to see the man encountering bad situations.

"Okay. I know what to do." Shi Yan nodded, sending his thoughts to the flame. After he had glided through the lightning net, he let the World Extinguishing Thunder Flame return to the heaven flame soul altar.

Crossing three big mountains, Shi Yan came to a vast sea. He watched the islands and islets hover in the sea in front of him.

The sea was floating in the air while the small islands were moving in the sea. Looking at them, Shi Yan suddenly thought that he had just returned to the Endless Sea. He had a vague nostalgia.

However, when he thought this, a magical grief intent domain arose instantaneously from behind a mountain and ran directly into his soul altar, flooding his Sea of Consciousness and sinking him into sorrow.

His strong will power became soft. His ability to move his body became stagnant. He felt so tired that he wanted to rest here and never move again.

An extremely cold current poured onto his body from his head, flooding his Sea of Consciousness.

The icy cold feeling arose from the bottom of his heart, waking his failed will.

He looked at the mountain behind him with fright. Divine light sparkled in his eyes as he looked at a ruin of a palace on that mountain. He found a broken massive formation. The sorrowful intent domain came from that shabby formation, affecting his will and mind.

He suddenly felt an unknown fear towards the forbidden lands of the Land of God Punishment. It wasn鈥檛 fifteen minutes since he had arrived here and he had almost lost his mind already.

It was very frightening!

It wasn鈥檛 luck that the pirates were able to remain firm for tens of thousands of years in the Raging Flame Star Area. The forbidden lands were their valuable resources to fight the three big forces.

If Feng Ke鈥檚 pirates could find a new star area with the star map, collect countless kinds of materials in huge quantities and around ten more life stars, it was possible that those forbidden lands would become Feng Ke鈥檚 pirate鈥檚 natural defense.

So even if the three big forces sent more hotshots, if they weren鈥檛 familiar with the dangers of the perilous forbidden lands, they would be killed or damaged badly. They would no longer be threats to the pirates anymore.

Developing ideas from this, Shi Yan believed that the pirates could use the new star area to improve themselves and become the strongest force of the Raging Flame Star Area. Then, they wouldn鈥檛 be afraid of the three big forces anymore.

Taking a deep breath, Shi Yan pressed down the idea of changing his direction to sense the ruined formation with the nostalgia intent domain. He continued to move towards the islet in front of him. His God Soul targeted and focused on Ka Tuo鈥檚 location.

That grief intent domain could be the will generated from the power Upanishad of a deceased warrior. While he had heard about it before, he had never encountered one. Shi Yan was curious.

To a warrior with a profound realm, when his God Body and soul altar were destroyed, it was possible to transform his God Domain. At that time, his power Upanishad could be preserved in the form of an intent domain.

If someone with the same power Upanishad as him came, he could find the area where the late warrior was buried and learn his intent domain to refine and upgrade his power Upanishad. Understanding the power furthermore would allow him to break through soon.

However, none of Shi Yan鈥檚 powers Upanishad could combine with this grief power Upanishad. So he didn鈥檛 change his journey to come and learn.

While flying towards the sea in front of him, Shi Yan understood something. His eyes sparkling with strange light.

He suddenly recognized that the barriers protecting the forbidden lands around the Land of God Punishment hid many big secrets.

This place consisted of shattered mountains, abandoned lakes, ruins of palaces, intent domain generated by God Domain of deceased warriors, man-made and natural barriers... This place shouldn鈥檛 be remote and isolated. It should be a busy place packed with experts.

With this thought, Shi Yan observed the forbidden land again. Seeing the many strange things and their statuses, he had an answer for himself.

A long, long time ago, those mountains, lakes, and ruins should have belonged to one or more continents.

After the continents exploded, the fragments created the current scenery. There should have been many experts who could build barriers and restrictions on the continents. When the continents exploded, the barriers and restricted were also fragmented and scattered in the immense starry sky of the Land of God Punishment.

The continents that exploded with its many mountains, lakes, and palaces were protected by barriers and the intent domain created by God Domain of the deceased experts... Which level was this life star before it got burst apart? How prosperous and luxurious did it use to be? How many mysterious experts did it use to have?

Shi Yan frowned as he asked himself these questions. He was amazed. He suddenly felt that he would encounter many magical things in the forbidden lands of the Land of God Punishment.
