Chapter 1065: Chapter 1055: Power Fluctuations

Feeling everyone’s eyes on him, Chen Hai frowned slightly and began to ponder.

He was a person who actually preferred to act alone and was not keen on dragging a bunch of tagalongs around.

Lu Yingtian, Ancestor Kugu, and others, although their strength was decent, seemed to have contributed nothing during their time in the Land of Slumber.

Following Chen Hai, they appeared not much different from burdens along the way.

Currently, the reason they were still agreeable with Chen Hai was primarily because they encountered only danger, without any interests.

If there were any great benefits that could tempt both parties, it was uncertain whether their relations with Chen Hai could remain harmonious.

The ancient saying goes, “People of the world bustle about for profit, and chaos for benefit,” which still holds much truth.

With sufficient profit, even brothers can turn against each other.

The current relationship between Lu Yingtian, Ancestor Kugu, and others with Chen Hai was merely a chance encounter, just happening to travel together. Do they really have any deep friendship?

Regarding these matters, Chen Hai saw them clearly.

He was willing to lead them in the Land of Slumber simply as a convenience.

Should he continue forward? Or return the same way? He would only consider his own standpoint, and others’ thoughts could not sway his opinion at all.

The primary reason he entered the Land of Slumber was due to the coercion of the Divine Ancestor Douzhan.

On that day, nearly dying by his hand, Li Xuancha, who fled embarrassedly back to the Outer Chaos, happened to be the senior brother of the Divine Ancestor Douzhan.

Because of the conflict between him and Li Xuancha, since the Divine Ancestor Douzhan personally sought him out, it was evident they had a notable connection.

When he was found within the Thirty-Three Layers of Heaven, the Divine Ancestor Douzhan did not directly attack him but forced him to go to the Land of Slumber, merely thinking he still had some use!

Now, just by discovering that Three-pointed Double-edged Blade, exclusive to Immortal Master Erlang, even with such scant clues, the White Head Demon Venerate might already be able to explain to the Great Power behind them.

But to satisfy the Divine Ancestor Douzhan, it seemed practically impossible for Chen Hai.

Moreover, if he just returned now and met the Divine Ancestor Douzhan, he might even think that Chen Hai had lost all value.

If such a possibility really arises, what his fate would be, Chen Hai had already roughly guessed with just a bit of thought.

“Everyone, whether to advance or retreat, you need not ask me, just decide for yourselves!”

“As for me, having already entered this Land of Slumber and come this far, I surely am not willing to return just like that.”

“The more dangerous the place, the greater the opportunities it accompanies.”

“This Land of Slumber, which draws the attention of many Primordial Chaos Great Powers and relates to the Primordial Heavenly Path, surely contains considerable opportunities within.”

“Continuing forward, thoroughly exploring in this realm, who knows, with some luck, we might truly encounter a great opportunity, allowing us to advance our strength further?”

“Now, with no benefits gained, I surely am unwilling to just return .”

“Of course, this is merely my opinion. Whether you align with me or not, you need to consider carefully yourselves!”

After pondering briefly, Chen Hai looked at everyone, shrugged, and spoke.

With his strength, unless faced with Primordial Chaos, general dangers should not pose much threat to him.

He was unwilling to return not only due to concern of Divine Ancestor Douzhan’s potential harm but also because his own strength was the foundation of his decision to continue exploring the Land of Slumber.

Hearing his words, those who were already considering retreat, led by the White Head Demon Venerate, gazed at each other and sighed heavily.

“Since Black Water Taoist Friend wishes to continue exploring in the Land of Slumber, we shall risk our lives accompanying the gentleman, and continue forward with him!” With a few hints of bitterness on his face, White Head Demon Venerate gave a wry smile and responded.

Although he spoke righteously, without absolute assurance of safely passing through the fog-filled path, he may have already left without a word at this moment.

“With Black Water Taoist Friend here, we have a backbone. Since he wishes to proceed, we will surely follow along.”

“Indeed, that’s the logic. Anyway, I’ve already decided long ago, whether advancing or retreating, as long as Black Water Taoist Friend makes the call, I will base my actions on his decision.” ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novｅlfire.net

“In that case, let’s settle on this. Maybe, by some stroke of luck, there’s some miraculous fortune waiting for me, allowing me to somehow forge the Great Path and certify the Primordial Chaos.”

After just a slight pause, the others also reacted.

Following White Head Demon Venerate, everyone spoke up in agreement.

Of course, although their words were gracious, what they truly thought inside was known only to themselves.

Chen Hai naturally was well aware of these matters.

However, in the absence of any interest conflict, he was simply too lazy to say much more!

Having absolute strength, should any unexpected situation arise, causing people before him to block his path or turn hostile, he wouldn’t hold back at all.

For now, since his relations with others remained amicable, and he was always kind to others, he certainly would not, at this time, go out of his way to do anything unnecessary!

Having decided to continue forward, regardless of what Lu Yingtian’s side or White Head Demon Venerate and the others thought in their hearts, they expressed no dissent outwardly.

Seeing this scene, Chen Hai nodded, waved his hand, and led everyone to continue forward.

“Boom boom boom boom…”

After advancing for about an hour, a strong force wave came from the northwest direction where they were.

This White Bone Plain now spanned an immensely wide area; even without the black fog obscuring it, they could hardly see the plain’s end at a glance.

The obvious force wave caused everyone to halt simultaneously.

“Besides endless white bones, does this plain house other creatures?”

“Are they original inhabitants of this place, or have those Quasi-Saints who entered here with us already arrived at this White Bone Plain?”

“Judging by the level of that force wave, it should belong to Quasi-Saint level, and in my opinion, it’s likely the latter.”

“The Land of Slumber indeed harbors considerable risks, but since our group managed to get here, there’s no reason those Quasi-Saints wouldn’t be capable of doing the same.”

Looking into the distance, though sensing the force wave, they saw no figures yet.

After exchanging glances, everyone became solemn and began discussing in hushed voices.
