Condemning the Heavens Chapter 330

Although this island was desolate and no living creature could be seen on the island itself, a few people were standing in the vicinity of the island in small groups.

Most of them were already filled with vigilance. Now all of them were alerted to Xue Wei and his friends' arrival.

They had all seen how an alluring woman had brought over a group of experts. All of which had appeared out of nowhere. Afterward, she had even vanished as silently as she had arrived.

These groups of experts were experienced in moving around in the Thunder Twilight Zone. Their livelihood was to enter the Twilight Thunder Zone and bring out the resources that could be found within.

They knew how dangerous this area was; they understood what it meant to arrive here. Even they needed to consider seriously before entering the center of the Thunder Twilight Zone, so what were these youngsters doing here?

When they looked at them, they could also see Xue Wei was not even a Heavenly Knight. How had he survived the Thunder and Lightning that was constantly cascading down from the sky?

Even now, many people could see how the numerous lightning bolts were landing on his body. Even so, not even a tremor ran through him, much less severe damage.

Everyone within the Thunder Twilight Zone was regularly hit by lightning. Anyone beneath the Heavenly Knight rank would have been turned to ashes. But nonetheless, these people could see that Xue Wei, who was clearly a Sky Knight, was standing unmoved in the middle of the lightning.

They could see his eyes were scanning over the island in front of them; it seemed as if he had a plan on entering the island. Even these experts, who were Heavenly Knights, would have to be careful before entering his area, much less a simple Sky Knight.

Many suddenly started to wonder about the background of this figure, it could not be simple to allow him to enter the Thunder Twilight Zone, and he was likely to have a lot of treasures on his body.

Thinking about the treasures that were likely to be on his body, all of them suddenly felt a bit of greed in their hearts. They were contemplating if it was worth it to attack him and kill him and his companions before looting their corpses.

Xue Wei was unaware of the thoughts of these people, but even if he had known, he would not have minded.

Although he was a Sky Knight, he was more than capable enough to go against a Heavenly Knight or two. His friends were all Heavenly Knights, and they would be able to defeat more than one at a time too.

So even if these observers decided to attack, then Xue Wei would not fear them too much. What he had to be most alert about were the experts who did not want to attack, and then decided to be the fishermen, waiting behind to reap the benefits.

Looking around, he noticed the greed in the people's eyes and his own hardened. He frowned, but he was not in the mood to be entangled with these people.

"Let's go!" Xue Wei said and rushed towards the desolate island in front of them. The lightning that was there was so much more overwhelming and powerful than anywhere else in the Thunder Twilight Zone, but even so, all it managed to do was make Xue Wei itch slightly.

Looking at the others, he saw that they weren't affected by the lightning either. All of them were feeling casual as they shot towards the island.

Lightning came crashing down, it was as if there was an attack of lightning bolts, all attacking Xue Wei and his friends, but when the lightning landed on their bodies, nothing happened apart from a few chills running through them.

Thunder boomed, it was much louder than before, and it was getting louder and louder, so loud that one could not help but feel that their ears were ringing.

Even so, the speed of Xue Wei and his friends did not diminish. Luoluo and Bai Tianyi had wings on their backs made from spiritual energy, while Xue Wei, Hei Gou, and Lin Xiao were able to fly due to their Qi levels.

After as long as it took for half a stick of incense to burn, they arrived at the island and landed on the desolate land.

Beneath their feet were withered grass, it seemed as if it had all the life force sucked out of it.

Frowning, he saw how it turned to dust underneath their feet. Looking at the sky, Xue Wei also noticed that the lightning and thunder was not striking on the island. All the bolts landed in the sea just outside the island; it was as if it was making a cage surrounding the island.

"This place is creepy," Luoluo said as she pursed her lips slightly. "I can feel some weird energy here," she continued. "I don't know what kind of energy it is, but it is not comfortable at all. There is also a big killing intent!"

Xue Wei could also feel the killing intent. His own murderous aura in his body was starting to react to the killing intent in the air; his soul was getting restless.

Waving his hand, a small vial appeared in his hand. The vial contained the soul calming pills, and Xue Wei quickly took one of them and placed it in his mouth before he passed it around, allowed for all of them to take one each.

The soul calming pill was instantly working, entering their minds and making them calm down.

The killing intent on the island was not natural at all. It would invade any visitor's mind and erode their reasoning, making them turn into a mindless killing machine, but these soul calming pills removed the invading killing intent and allowed for them to regain their minds.

They did not need to walk far before a figure appeared in the distance. The clothes were dirty, and the hair was messy. The eyes were empty, and the mouth was open, wuwu sounds continually coming out of its mouth.

"I guess not everyone can fight against the killing intent," Xue Wei muttered as he saw the unconscious-but-still-moving person.

"He is still wearing his storage treasure," Bai Tianyi commented as if the most important thing for him was whether or not the target was worth killing.

"Well then," Hei Gou looked at Bai Tianyi. "If you want the storage treasure, he is all yours."

Bai Tianyi snorted, waved his hand and a spiritual energy sword at the size of five meters suddenly chopped at the figure.

Before the figure had time to move, it was cut in half, but contrary to what one might expect, no blood was spilled.

Looking puzzled, they walked over to look at the now-dead figure, only to find that there was no blood in his body, his entire body seemed as withered as the grass they had stepped upon when they arrived.

"Interesting," Xue Wei muttered as he looked around. He nudged the corpse with his feet, and just as the foot came into contact with the skin, it turned into dust and started to float away in the wind.

"They are coming," Hei Gou said after a bit of hesitation, he looked around and saw that hundreds of figures had surrounded the entire group.

These figures had various degrees of decay. Some were completely withered away, some were more human-like, but all of them had dull, dead eyes.

"I wonder what is hidden on this island," Xue Wei muttered what they were all thinking about. To be able to take over everyone's mind like this was simply outstanding, and also quite frightening.

"There is a spirit here," Luoluo said, but she did not sound happy about her discovery.

"It is an evil spirit," Bai Tianyi added, but neither Xue Wei nor Hei Gou or Lin Xiao knew anything about evil spirits, so they just looked at him, curious as to what it was.

"Evil spirits are vile spirits," Bai Tianyi began explaining. "Spirits rely on spiritual energy to increase their strength. But usually, they do not kill for the sake of gaining spiritual energy. However, some spirits kill anything they come across for soul power.

"The more they kill for the sake of soul power, the more bloody their souls become, and eventually they will become evil spirits or blood spirits.

"An evil spirit can be evil from creation. If they are born on a battlefield, their entire core is born from death and blood, and then it is their nature to become evil spirits.

"This was supposed to have been a battleground for Kings and Emperors, so, naturally, an evil spirit has been born over the passing of time."

"We might have a problem though," Luoluo cut in, and Bai Tianyi stayed silent, nodding his head.

Xue Wei looked at them wondering what the problem could be, but what he heard next made a chill run down his spine.

"If this spirit has managed to absorb the soul power of the Kings and Emperor experts, then we have truly entered a death trap," Luoluo smiled wryly.

"Emperors and Kings can seal their soul power," Bai Tianyi continued to explain. "This is usually done in the purpose of finding an heir to their legacy, but if the spirit has managed to get its hands on this energy, then we are likely to be facing a dangerous entity. An entity we can't face at all."

"It should not be that serious," Xue Wei said hesitatingly. "The flood dragon would not have sent us in here if we had no chance of survival."

He did not know the flood dragon too well, but he could feel the reverence and respect the dragon felt towards him. It would never harm him intentionally.

He was silent for some time, and then he looked at the figures who continued to stumble forward. Their speed was slow, and their movements clumsy.

"Can this energy help you?" Xue Wei suddenly asked as he looked at Luoluo and Bai Tianyi. "Can we take the energy and share it between the two of you?"

Bai Tianyi and Luoluo were always arguing, but this time they looked at one another and grinned. "We can even steal it if the evil spirit has consumed it," Luoluo snickered.

Xue Wei did not know too much about spirits, but he smiled and nodded his head.

He could sense that these two spirits were eager to get their hands on the soul power and spiritual energy. As their friend, when there was something they wanted, he would naturally support them to the best of his ability.

His friends were aware of this, and they looked gratefully at Xue Wei. Hei Gou and Lin Xiao were also smiling and grinning when they saw that they were all on the same level. None of them were eager to leave the island.

"Well, first off, we have to get rid of these withered experts."

Having said this, Xue Wei flashed towards the withered creatures in front of him. All of them were Heavenly Experts, but having lost their lives, and all their soul energy, they were like mechanical dolls that were unable to move fast.

Inner Might - Qi Sword Style!

Forbidden Rush!

Xue Wei rushed, and his sword was being brandished with a flourish, head after head was being decapitated and they fell to the ground, some disintegrating while others had been dead for a shorter amount of time, their bodies only partly vanishing.

Xue Wei, Bai Tianyi, Hei Gou, Lin Xiao, and Luoluo were efficiently disposing of every one of the withered experts, they did not even break a sweat as they killed them, and soon the hundreds of experts had turned to dust that was blowing in the wind, small hills of dirt on the ground and partly destroyed corpses.
