Devil's Son-in-Law-Chapter 1166: The Elemental World

The cracks on the Fertile Yuan Soil spread rapidly, and it completely shattered with a ‘bang’.

At the moment of shattering, the golden light shrouded Chen Rui. Chen Rui thought of Moore’s words, and he let the golden light sink into his body without avoiding it.

Although the Fertile Yuan Soil was shattered, it didn’t completely disappear. Those fragments instantly absorbed a large amount of soil, forming a door in the air. In the eyes of the others, this door was transparent, and there was nothing but a door frame. Only Chen Rui could feel the endless special breath contained behind the door. His soul seemed to be summoned by the space behind the door. More accurately, it was calling the golden light in his body, which was the last trace of life and soul power left by Moore. However, the effectiveness of this power was limited. He must enter as soon as possible, otherwise it would lose its effect.

“Chen Rui!” Athena’s voice sounded behind him.

As soon as Chen Rui turned his head, he saw Athena’s gaze. Thousands of words were gathered in a simple concern.

“Come back safely with Zola.” Athena gently touched her stomach and looked at the people around, “We’ll wait for you.”

“En.” Chen Rui nodded. Golden light flashed on his body as he flew into the ‘door’. His body also became blurred, and he disappeared soon.

After Chen Rui entered, the door began to crumble rapidly.

As the light flashed, Python’s figure appeared on the opposite side. It turned out that she had already passed through the door at high speed, but unfortunately, she just ‘passed through’ and could not ‘enter’.

No doubt, as she expected before, the elemental world repelled all powers other than elements, and the energy of the Fertile Yuan Soil was only enough to teleport Chen Rui alone.

In the next second, the fragments of Fertile Yuan Soil were completely annihilated, and the solidified soil door disappeared without a trace. Only the lightning dancing in the sky could still be seen.

The moment Chen Rui passed through the soil door, he channeled Star Power to prepare for any danger. However, to his surprise, he didn’t feel any repulsion. Instead, he felt like he had returned to the most comfortable environment like a fish entering the water.

That door had disappeared. There was a whole new world in front of him.

The clouds in the sky flashed with all kinds of gorgeous and dazzling light, constantly changing. There was no land under his feet, just islands floating in the air. This geographical situation was somewhat similar to the Ghastly Floating Land, but this kind of island was not all soil or stone. For example, the nearest one was pure iceland.

The sky was filled with streams of air, faintly revealing a powerful force. Clusters of hurricanes could be seen in the distance. There was lightning flashing in them.

Even a magic fool like Chen Rui could sense the incomparable energy of elements contained in this world. All kinds of elements, even those incompatible elements, were organically combined into a compatible whole.

Elemental world.

‘Hometown’ of Moore, Lambost, Sethtine, and the others.

Zola, here I come… Chen Rui said silently in his mind as he flew forward.

At this moment, Chen Rui discovered something that shocked him—The Breeze Shadow Boots under his feet had lost their acceleration effect!

The Breeze Shadow Boots had the attribute of [Wind Escape], which could greatly increase the speed as long as it was worn, but now Chen Rui felt that the attribute of [Wind Escape] had disappeared. He tried to activate the Breeze Shadow Boots’ [Sparkle] skill to triple the speed. No doubt, there was no reaction at all.

Chen Rui frowned. The God-Eating Mask appeared on his face, but he also could not activate [Demonic Flies Transformation] or [Devour].

After trying all 6 of the ‘7 artifacts’, Chen Rui finally confirmed that all the 7 artifacts were unusable in the elemental world.

Chen Rui was extremely shocked. Starting from the God-Eating Mask, these artifacts had accompanied him through numerous battles, whether large or small. They played a vital role many times, and even saved his life more than once. Yet, in this world, they couldn’t be used!

Chen Rui quickly regained his composure. Although the 7 artifacts could bring a lot of help, they were external objects after all and could not be completely relied on. Next, he tried the most important [Star Gate], and found that the star point couldn’t be set here, but fortunately, it was still possible to activate the original [Star Gate].

At the very least, I can escape from the elemental world with Zola.

After a while, the feeling of being at home in the elemental world had faded. Correspondingly, the surrounding pressure was increasing. The reason was very simple. The golden light energy of the Fertile Yuan Soil in his body could not last long. It was rapidly dissipating.

Chen Rui took a deep breath and felt the mellow and warm soul power. Although it was about to dissipate completely, this feeling had been engraved in his memory, like an eternal friend who would accompany him to face future battles.

Moore’s soul power finally dissipated. Chen Rui suddenly felt his mind and body sink at the same time. The brewing Star Power was quickly decomposed and dissipated. He even lost the ability to fly, getting tossed by the airflow.

Chen Rui tried his best, but he still couldn’t stabilize his figure. He was secretly surprised. In fact, he was mentally prepared, but he didn’t expect it to be more difficult than he imagined. Even without activating the [Pole Star Transformation], his strength had already surpassed ordinary peak stage of the Demi-God. In fact, he could even cross-level fight with the early stage of the Pseudo-God, but here, he couldn’t even fly freely.

This was no longer the simple power suppression that Chen Rui experienced in many kingdoms including the Abyss kingdom before, but a kind of absolute repulsion. Any material and power that was incompatible with this plane would be banned.

It was not only his power that collapsed but also his body. Even the physical strength of the peak stage of the Demi-God could not resist this terrifying repulsion. Chen Rui felt as if he was in an oven. His body and soul were continuously burned until exhausted.

If this continues, it won’t be long before I will be annihilated. And this is without any enemies!

When Chen Rui was about to activate the [Pole Star Transformation], the Super System sent a warning sound in time, “Found continuous erosion of unknown law energy. Do you want to activate [Aura Protection]? During the protection period, it will consume 100,000 Aura Value every minute and faith crystal 1000.”

“Activate!” Chen Rui immediately confirmed to activate it. This kind of [Aura Protection] reminder was passive in nature. It should be automatically prompted when he was seriously threatened by some special nature. It occurred when he was imprisoned by the Shackles of True Flame of Isyorul back then.

The consumption of [Aura Protection] was astonishing. 1 minute cost 100,000 aura and 1000 faith crystals. Then, 1 hour cost 6 million aura and 60,000 faith crystals, but for the massive reserves of aura and faith crystals in the Super System today, it was not a problem.

After activating the [Aura Protection], the feeling of suppression in the soul still existed, but the situation of continuous ‘losing HP’ finally disappeared. He could finally control the power freely, but the consumption of power was obviously much higher than usual.

Now that the most fundamental problem had been solved, Chen Rui no longer had to activate [Pole Star Transformation] anymore. With his current comprehension level of the 6-star enhancement and faith, the [Pole Star Transformation] would not bring any restrictions or ‘side effects’, so it could even be activated repeatedly. Nonetheless, the [Pole Star Transformation] was an extremely power-consuming battle form after all. He had not yet encountered a real enemy, especially in this environment where power consumption was doubled.

After Chen Rui adjusted his state, he flew forward.

After only a few minutes of flying, Chen Rui’s figure suddenly stopped. He saw a translucent creature like a giant snake appearing in the air, rushing toward him. There were countless wriggling figures behind him.

Race: Elemental creature (wind)

Comprehensive Strength Assessment: SS-

Physique: SS-, Strength: SS-, Spirit: SS-, Speed: SS

[Analysis]: Wind attribute, lightning talent.

Risk level: Low.

Kingdom level was not considered strong compared to Chen Rui’s current strength, but what surprised him was that these elemental creatures appeared so suddenly. No matter whether it was his own perception or the [Analytical Eyes], there was no sign in advance.

With a wave of Chen Rui’s hand, the giant snake immediately split into pieces. The giant snakes behind did not flinch or fight recklessly. They spewed out lightning one after another.

Chen Rui was inexperienced in magic, but he had a fairy dragon wife. He had progressed step by step to his current level under Zola’s ‘tempering’, so he was quite familiar with lightning. These giant snakes cast instant lightning, not the element power mobilized by magic spells, but the instinct of elemental creatures. Whether in terms of speed or power, it was far better than ordinary magicians of the same level.

Chen Rui did not retreat but advanced, facing the lightning. He had rushed into the group of giant snakes. In the blink of an eye, the giant snakes disintegrated into nothing.

After advancing for a while, the space in front of him suddenly burst into flames. Horses covered in flames rushed toward the sky.

The fire elemental creature also appeared suddenly this time, but Chen Rui was already mentally prepared. Countless sharp qi appeared in his hands. It didn’t take long for him to eliminate these fire horses.

Chen Rui, who easily defeated his opponent twice, was not in a relaxed mood. These elemental creatures obviously possessed intelligence, but the [Analytical Eyes] could not communicate at all. He could only feel strong hostility. Especially the fire elemental creatures just now, Chen Rui had the ‘Fire Phoenix Stigmata’ given by the little phoenix daughter, which could not only weaken the attack of the fire element power, but it also greatly increased the affinity of fire creatures. However, the hostility of the fire horses had not weakened in the slightest. Instead, they had become more violent.

It seems that the ‘repulsion’ of outsiders is not only by the environment of the elemental world, but also by all creatures that exist.

Chen Rui was flying while thinking. Suddenly, he had an intense warning. He saw countless fine raindrops fall from the dense dark clouds in the sky.

Dark clouds and rain were common natural phenomena, but these raindrops gave Chen Rui a sense of fatal danger. In the blink of an eye, the purple starlight flourished. He had activated the strongest [Pole Star Transformation] without thinking.

A transparent light shield instantly appeared around the purple starlight figure. When the seemingly gentle rain fell on the powerful protective light shield, it left terrifying cracks!

As the ‘rain’ continued, the defensive shield collapsed in just a few seconds. At this time, a black flame was ignited on Chen Rui’s body. This flame contained a powerful life force, evaporating the rain.

However, the ‘steam’ did not dissipate, but it froze quickly. Chen Rui activated [Flame of Nirvana] several times, but he couldn’t dispel or delay the freezing. He could only watch helplessly as his body was quickly frozen.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky had disintegrated into white water vapor, which converged into a human-shaped face with blurred facial features. Only the dark blue eyes, that were relatively clear, were gazing at the ice sculpture below.
