Chapter 500: Trapped in a barrier

Watching the Witch God disappear, they originally thought that the matter was over.

The usually carefree Hui Nian was now extremely anxious. He had intended to deactivate the Golden Body Chan Master state, but to his astonishment, no matter how he tried, he couldn’t successfully deactivate it.

The Golden Body Chan Master seemed to be controlled by an invisible force, refusing to obey his commands.

Sweat began to seep from Hui Nian’s forehead, and his heart was filled with confusion and unease.

Just as he was at a loss, he suddenly noticed that the Golden Body Chan Master’s gaze was fixed on the sky.

Hui Nian followed his line of sight and saw that there seemed to be something unusual in the sky that had caught the Golden Body Chan Master’s attention.

A hint of anxiety appeared in Hui Nian’s eyes. He turned to look at Liang Yu, seemingly wanting to ask him for help.

However, when his gaze fell on Liang Yu, he found that Liang Yu’s situation was exactly the same as the Golden Body Chan Master’s.

Liang Yu held the Aurora Sword tightly in front of him, his gaze also fixed on the sky, as if a huge threat was hidden there.

Hui Nian’s heart sank. He realized that the situation might be more serious than he had imagined.

At the same time, he also looked towards the sky.

He wanted to know what charm this sky possessed that it could attract people so much.

When he looked up at the sky, Hui Nian already understood. Although he was a bit simple-minded, he was not stupid.

The Witch God’s barrier in the sky had not disappeared.

In other words, they had killed the Witch God, but the Witch God had not died, or rather, had feigned death in front of them.

Hui Nian’s master, Qi Zhen, had once told him that no matter how powerful the caster was, under normal circumstances, the spell would disappear when the person died.

But now, the Witch God’s barrier was still trapping them.

Liang Yu’s Emperor Magnetic Field was operating at full power, and he also knew the problem with this situation.

He found it easier to accept this situation. After all, it was a god, even if it had been trapped in the Gods and Demons Abyss for an unknown period of time.

However, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse; this is an eternal truth. Moreover, the opponent was a god, so how could it be so easy to kill?

He vaguely remembered hearing the village elders casually chat when he was young, saying that whenever a god fell, there would definitely be unusual phenomena in the sky.

This also made him believe that the Witch God was not dead, and the barrier in the sky now confirmed his idea.

And he also had an even bolder conjecture.

The Witch God they had killed might only be a miniature of the opponent’s power.

Liang Yu and the others had not actually slain a god; from beginning to end, what they had fought and killed was merely a portion of the Witch God’s divinity.

The more Liang Yu thought about it, the more alarmed he became. At this moment, he had to admit that sometimes ignorance was a rather blissful thing, at least the pressure faced would not be so great.

He shouted at Hui Nian.

“Break it!!!”

In that instant, all his power converged onto the long sword in his hand. As he swung his arm, dazzling Aurora Sword blades, like lightning, tore through the sky.

These sword blades seemed to possess life, flying rapidly in the air, carrying a fierce momentum and endless killing intent, directly rushing towards the sky.

Hui Nian’s heart jolted when he heard Liang Yu’s shout.

He looked closely and saw Liang Yu wielding his long sword, striking several times at the sky like a fierce storm.

Each sword strike carried a sharp sword qi, drawing streaks of cold light in the air.

Seeing this, a strange sense of trust welled up in Hui Nian’s heart. He did not hesitate to activate the qi within him again, attempting to regain control of the Golden Body Chan Master.

However, the moment his qi touched the Golden Body Chan Master, the resistant force that had previously made him lose control miraculously disappeared.

Hui Nian felt a slight surprise, but at this moment, he had no time to ponder the reason.

He focused his mind, fully merging his will with the Golden Body Chan Master and re-establishing a connection with it.

As he exerted himself, the Golden Body Chan Master gradually began to obey his commands, and its previously stiff body slowly regained flexibility.

Under Hui Nian’s control, the Golden Body Chan Master seemed to be endowed with life. His body leaned back slightly, muscles tensed, and arms extended, assuming a perfect throwing posture.

He tightly gripped the Vajra, which was condensed from golden light. This Vajra emitted a dazzling glow, as if it contained endless power.

At Hui Nian’s command, the Golden Body Chan Master suddenly exerted force, gathering all its power in its arms, and then hurled the Vajra towards the sky with thunderous might.

The Vajra, like an arrow released from a bowstring, flew rapidly through the air. Wherever it passed, the air was torn apart, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

In the blink of an eye, the Vajra, like a meteor, streaked across the sky, directly rushing towards the endless firmament.

Liang Yu’s Aurora Sword blades flew towards the barrier in the sky. However, that seemingly fragile barrier was as solid as a rock. The sword blades merely created faint ripples upon impact before disappearing without a trace.

At the very same moment, the Vajra that Hui Nian had thrown from behind shot out like a meteor, striking the solid barrier with thunderous force.

A loud “bang” echoed, as if the entire space trembled. The sound was like a thunderclap, deafening, causing one to jump in surprise.

However, surprisingly, despite the immense power of the Vajra, the barrier remained as unyielding as a copper wall and an iron fortress, not even a single crack appearing.

Hui Nian did not give up. He clenched his fists tightly, his gaze firmly fixed on the barrier in the sky.

The Golden Body Chan Master, under his control, slowly raised his hand. His movements seemed a bit strenuous, but his resolve remained undiminished.

Following the Golden Body Chan Master’s gesture, the Vajra, which was about to fall, seemed to be lifted by an invisible force, re-suspending in mid-air.

The Vajra shone with dazzling light, as if containing endless energy.

Hui Nian took a deep breath, then abruptly swung his arm. The Vajra, like an arrow released from a bowstring, shot towards the sky’s barrier at an astonishing speed.

In an instant, the Vajra violently collided with the barrier, emitting an earth-shattering roar.

The impact generated shockwaves that swept in all directions, stirring up a strong wind that blew the surrounding houses askew.

However, despite the immense power of the Vajra, the barrier remained as solid as a rock, showing no signs of damage.

Although they had tried a second time, the barrier remained as solid as a rock, showing no signs of being shaken.

A wave of emotion welled up in both of their hearts. They realized that they seemed to be truly trapped in this place, unable to escape.

Liang Yu stood still, his brows furrowed, lost in thought. He constantly searched his mind for various possible methods, trying to find the key to breaking through the barrier.
