Chapter 1096: Goddess

With the desert demonic earthworm leading the way, the Red Sand Ship did not encounter any uninvited guests except for the sand along the way.

Regia didn’t know how Chen Rui did this. He just felt that he was lucky. In the face of this absolute strength, his strategy was utterly a joke. Whether it was with the help of the sand bandits or the power of the demonic beasts along the way, they couldn’t withstand a blow from Chen Rui. If this sir hadn’t seen that tattoo and happened to have the soul of the Royal Highness Little Princess by his side, he would have been a corpse like those with Bloodbeard.

This was naturally due to Chen Rui using the [Analytical Eyes] plus Demi-God level coercion. After successfully passing through this area, Chen Rui let go of the spiritual suppression of the desert demonic earthworm. It immediately dove into the sand and disappeared with relief.

The journey to the desert was boring and long. Now, he had lost the feeling of appreciation that he had when he first entered the desert. He only saw monotonous and endless sand.

Half a month had passed, and the Red Sand Ship had entered the core area of ​​the desert.

This was even the result of the presence of Regia as a guide. Regia’s strength was not worth mentioning in front of Chen Rui, but his ability to ‘smell’ in the desert was even better than Chen Rui. Those dunes looked similar to Chen Rui, but Regia could find the right direction.

Everyone had their pros and cons. If Chen Rui set off on his own, even if it was another half a month, he would probably be still wandering around the desert.

The sand wind in the core area was much stronger than in the outer area. Even for the sandmen, it became quite difficult to control the ship to travel in the designated direction. The demon beasts encountered along the way also appeared more frequently. With Chen Rui around, surely they could not pose a threat. Nevertheless, he just could not find the moving Dreamy Oasis.

“The wind is finally slowing down.” Chen Rui took off his goggles and patted the sand on his cloak. Although his strength was extraordinary, it was inevitable that he would be a bit tired when he continued to travel in this environment.

He was even sitting in the Red Sand Ship, where the storage warehouse guaranteed food and drinking water. If one were to walk directly into the desert like a historical character recorded in another world, it was simply unimaginable. “It should stop for a while, but it’s definitely not time to be optimistic now. In the core of this kind of desert, you have to be vigilant at all times. When we encountered the scorpion swarm yesterday, we nearly…” Regia’s voice suddenly stopped while staring ahead, dumbfounded.

Chen Rui followed his gaze, and the white clouds in the sky in the distance condensed into a slender figure. It was vaguely a female body with long robes and long hair. The robes and hair roots extended into the white clouds in the sky, emitting a faint light as if it controlled the entire sky.

At the first sight of this scene, there was a sense of vastness and sacredness, making one could not help but worship.

“Te… Tezaneer!” Regia stammered out a name. He had been in the desert for more than 10 years and heard a lot of 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 Red Battle Empire that Little Jim said at the beginning. He never expected to see the ‘desert messenger’ named by the Light God today.

“Sir, shall we kneel down and pray?” Regia whispered.

Chen Rui’s eyes kept staring at the figure in the cloud. When he heard Regia’s words, he asked, “Do you believe in the Light God?”

“Uh.” Regia was silent. Although the Cloud Rider Empire was the Holy Empire favored by Light God, it was later eroded by the mysterious cult which led to the collapse of the country. The church once publicly declared that they had been abandoned by Light God and sent Tribunal Judges to suppress the ‘remainders’. As the guardian of the royal family, although Regia was extremely disgusted with the mysterious cult, he also had a hostile rather than a friendly feeling toward the Holy Church, so he would not believe in the Light God.

“Real faith requires devotion from the heart. If it’s just superficial respect, it will definitely arouse God’s dissatisfaction, so…” Chen Rui indifferently looked at the figure that looked like ‘Tezaneer’ in the sky, and added another sentence in his mind. If she is a real god.

Regardless of the authenticity of that legend, it didn’t matter whether this Tezaneer was a god or an oracle. Chen Rui had actually seen the gods of this world, or more precisely, the dead or dormant god. Even the huge corpses that had lost their vitality were still unfathomable galaxies.

The cloud in front of him seemed magnificent and vast with an extraordinary momentum, but compared with the ‘corpse’, it was only a bluff on the surface.

Chen Rui had a feeling that the goddess’ eyes never seemed to open.

“Sir, then we…” Regia was in awe of the existence of god even though he was not a believer, so he asked again carefully.

In the white clouds ahead, the graceful figure had gradually distorted and faded before disappearing in a moment.

This scene made Regia nervous again. Chen Rui smiled, “Our true attitude is the best respect for her. Since Tezaneer has disappeared, then let’s go on. To be able to witness the temperament of this ’goddess’, at least it’s worth the ticket price.”

Ticket price? Regia didn’t understand what Chen Rui said, but Tezaneer was gone, so it was useless to say anything.

The Red Sand Ship drove for a while without encountering any obstacles. Even the sand wind blowing on their faces seemed very mild. Perhaps due to illusion, Regia felt that the atmosphere of ‘dead silence’ in the vicinity was getting stronger and stronger. He couldn’t help but feel more uneasy.

At this time, the color of the white clouds in the sky gradually calmed down as the clear sky began to dim. Soon, a thick smoky black cloud appeared on the distant horizon.

“Black Death Sandstorm!” Regia’s tense nerves seemed to be bounced as he exclaimed, “This is the most terrifying sandstorm in the Black Prison Desert, known as the Black Reaper. It is at least 1000 times more violent than we have encountered before!”

“Can it still be avoided?” Chen Rui frowned. It was not the first time he encountered a sandstorm, but as Regia said, the power of this sandstorm was far greater than before.

Not only that, he could also sense that there was a strange and powerful force in this sandstorm. His soul was even trembling at such a distance.

An intangible sense of suppression began to accumulate like a thread, entwining in his mind.

More precisely, it was a strange will power.

“No one can survive the sandstorm! Sir, if you have any means of escape, just activate it!” Regia seemed to feel something. Thinking of the previous scene, his body trembled, and he shouted, “Tezaneer! It must be the punishment from the desert goddess!”

Chen Rui’s facial expression changed slightly because the accumulation of that ‘will’ was getting stronger and stronger. Even if he was now at the peak stage of the Demi-God, his soul still couldn’t help trembling.

The rolling black clouds on the horizon had ‘gradually’ approached. This speed was actually very fast as the black clouds were becoming bigger.

The suppression in Chen Rui’s mind continued to increase as he felt a face with closed eyes beginning to become clear in his soul, just like the figure in the cloud before. There was no doubt that this was Tezaneer’s will.

“It’s too late, sir! Immediately dig a big hole, the deeper the better! Let’s hide in it and fully activate the protection. Perhaps there is still a chance for survival!” Regia shouted, feeling the pressure of the air was increasing. Even his sound was almost drowned out. Seeing that Chen Rui was actually standing still, he thought he was dumbfounded. He gritted his teeth and started to dig a hole desperately with a shovel.

With Black Death Sandstorm’s momentum, it was hard to survive even with Regia’s method, but in his opinion, this was the only possible way to survive.

The black smokes were approaching. The power was extremely terrifying, but the wind element power was not the most deadly. The real ‘reaper’ was the spiritual storm containing the will of Tezaneer. This kind of spirit power had been materialized. Even the Misty Tide Pearl from the Wind Elemental King didn’t work either.

Worship!

Surrender!

Believe!

God is invincible.

No matter how powerful you are, you can only look up to the sky.

Countless thoughts of surrender popped up in Chen Rui’s mind. The Super System didn’t have any special response. This was not an ordinary soul erosion, but Chen Rui’s own thoughts under that suppressive force. His willpower was constantly weakened by Tezaneer’s will, and some weak aspects in his mind were infinitely magnified.

Rather than fighting Tezaneer, it was more about fighting himself.

“Those who believe in me will live; those who don’t believe in me will die?” Chen Rui took a deep breath, stared at the rapidly approaching dark clouds ahead, and finally said, “The so-called god…”

“Sir! Hide in here!” Regia had dug a hole more than 1 meter deep and shouted, but even his sound was poured back into the mouth by the huge pressure. His whole person was staggering and unsteady. .

“No, even if it’s a real god…” Chen Rui was still talking to himself and didn’t move. He just slowly closed his eyes. The lovely face of his daughter appeared in his mind, and his body was full of surging fluctuations.

When Regia was about to pull Chen Rui into the pit, he suddenly found himself unable to move. Everything around him suddenly became silent, or more precisely, time stopped, including the overwhelming Black Reaper in front of him.

This strange stillness only lasted for a moment. After about 3 seconds, the flow of time suddenly accelerated several times.

Regia felt his entire vision shake violently.

Then the approaching Black Reaper seemed to be torn apart by some incomparable force.

An illusion on the verge of death?

Regia rubbed his eyes vigorously. In his vision, the terrifying Black Death Sandstorm seemed to be torn apart in front of the figure.

The whole world seemed to be shaking.

Until the black sand completely dissipated.

The dust had settled.

“If you stand in front of me, I will kill you without hesitation.” Chen Rui slowly withdrew his fist. He did not use the [Pole Star Transformation], nor any special moves or equipment. It was just the purest blow from his mind, will and soul.

This blow defeated not only Tezaneer’s will but also his own ego.

As said, he was not afraid even if it was god.

Regia watched in disbelief at the fist-raising figure. Black Death Sandstorm, the power of god is defeated by a punch!

The biggest impact this punch gave him was not strength but faith and will. It was an unwavering determination, even if it was God standing in front.

At this moment, Regia couldn’t help but feel a sense of worship, not for a certain goddess, but for this person.

The Royal Highness Little Princess has found a very remarkable man.

A true guardian.
