Chapter 5442
“As expected… strength is everything.”
Kai muttered to himself.
The warship slowly entered the passage, followed closely by three hundred golden-armored guards, and marched towards the sixth heaven in a mighty force.
The golden warship sped steadily through the void channel. The chaotic air currents on both sides of the channel were isolated by the divine light emitted by the warship, and there was no sense of turbulence at all.
Kai stood by the railing, his eyes sweeping across the golden-armored guards standing in neat rows on the deck, and finally fell on the four people beside Ling Xi at the bow.
The four men were all wearing dark golden armor, with golden helmets covering most of their faces, revealing only a pair of calm and sharp eyes.
Different from the sacred aura emanating from the other golden armored guards, the aura of these four was as restrained as the abyss. Standing there they were like four silent mountains. Although they were clearly very close, they gave people a sense of oppression as if they were thousands of miles away.
Kai used his spiritual sense to investigate several times, but he always felt that the other party’s aura was unfathomable, as if it would cause a huge wave at the slightest touch.
“Miss Yunxiu, the four guards beside the Fourth Palace Master seem different from the other golden armored guards?”
Kai finally couldn’t contain his curiosity and asked Yunxiu who was standing beside him.
Yunxiu followed his gaze, her tone filled with awe, “Those are the Fourth Palace Master’s personal guards, known as the ‘Four Direction Divine Guards.’ They are no ordinary golden-armored guards; they were personally selected by the Divine King for the Fourth Palace Master. Each of them has reached the fifth rank of the Human Immortal Realm and is proficient in combined attack techniques. Together, the four of them can rival even a sixth rank Human Immortal Realm warrior.”
Kai was shocked. The fifth level of human immortal realm?
This kind of strength is already at the legendary level in the sixth heaven. You should know that Wu Hao is only at the second level of the human fairyland now. Unexpectedly, he is just Lingxi’s personal bodyguard.
He increasingly understood Ling Xi’s sincerity in sending troops this time, and he also became more aware of the gap in strength between the Eighth Heaven and the Sixth Heaven.
At this moment, a strong demonic aura suddenly emanated from the passageway in front of the warship, accompanied by a rough, angry roar: “How dare you, you bastard, trespass into the Sixth Heaven! By order of the Lord, anyone entering this place will be killed without mercy!”
A black figure broke through the dim light at the exit of the passage, holding a huge axe in his hand, with demonic energy surrounding him. He was one of the demon generals under the Soul Devourer.
He had just broken through the seal and was ordered to guard the void passage. When he saw the golden warship approaching, he launched an indiscriminate attack.
Kai was about to draw his sword, but he saw Ling Xi didn’t even raise her eyelids, still looking at the scenery at the bow, as if the demon general in front of her was just an ant.
“presumptuous.”
A cold voice came from the mouth of one of the Four Divine Guards. Before he finished speaking, the Divine Guard disappeared from the spot.
Everyone only felt a flash of golden light, and the next second, before the demon general’s axe fell, his head had already soared into the sky, and black blood splattered in the void, and was instantly purified by the spiritual light of the passage.
The whole process took only a moment, and the first-grade demon general in the human fairyland didn’t even have the strength to fight back.
The golden-armored guards on the deck remained calm, as if they had just crushed a mosquito. Only Kai’s pupils shrank slightly, and he truly felt the shock brought by the absolute strength.
The divine guard flashed back to his original position and stood still, as if he had never made a move.
Ling Xi then said lightly: “Noisy.”
The warship passed through the exit of the passage, and the dim sky of the Sixth Heaven came into view. A strong demonic aura came towards them, forming a sharp contrast with the divine light of the warship.
Under Lingxi’s guidance, the warship sped towards the snow-capped mountains and soon arrived at the hidden cave.
Outside the cave, Wu Hao, Ling Yue, Zi Yuan and others were waiting anxiously. They saw the golden warship cutting through the sky from afar, and all of them looked surprised and puzzled.
When they saw Kai standing at the bow waving to them, everyone was delighted at first, but then they were shocked by the power of the warship and the golden-armored guards on the deck and were speechless.
