Chapter 2975 A Ruse

The True Gods barely cared about any disputes among the numerous ordinary people. In the divine land, those True Gods who had proven a Godly Way all focused their attention on figuring out a way to enter a Floating Island in hopes of finding better resources.

Likewise, the warriors in the Source World focused on crossing the Sea of Truth after they reached the consummation of True God Realm. Their objective was to reach the Other Shore Realm at the earliest.

However, there was one difference between the Source World and the divine land.

The inhabitants of the divine land were permitted to only live on the outskirts of the divine cities within it, which prohibited them from forming large forces.

The number of divine citizens in the Source World was much larger compared to that of the divine land itself. The divine citizens even went ahead and formed different countries within it. Of course, thirst for power and inheritance of thrones in those countries caused many disputes among people. Wars and fights broke out in hopes of overthrowing each other and taking control.

The Sand Country was just one of the many countries in the Source World.

After all, the divine citizens were not mere mortals. Even though they hadn't entered the Soul Sea Realm, they were not much weaker than the warriors at the Soul Sea Realm in terms of physical strength and endurance.

Half a day later, Maggie had led Zen to travel over a hundred miles.

As she led him, she kept using her protective flute to clear away their path in the raging sandstorm. She even constantly switched their routes.

Noticing Maggie's strange moves, Zen's face revealed a trace of suspicion. He began to suspect her motives. 'Why does she keep changing her direction?' He put his guard up and followed her with caution.

Zen carefully scanned his surroundings. The desert was dull and desolate, and there was almost no scenery which would serve as a landmark. The dunes would change their position every time the wind blew. There was no way to tell where they were.

Although she could use the flute to break through space, how did she know where she was going?

His suspicions grew with every step she took. He kept a careful watch on her.

Zen quickly spread out his spiritual sense secretly and began memorizing the surrounding area of dunes into his mind. He ran his eyes over the place and paid attention to every detail around him. With his present memory, he could remember every significant detail and store it in his mind.

Two hours later, Zen's

Luo, are you kidding? How could there be no one in such a big sand city? I..."

Now that Zen was sure she was leading him to an ambush, he let out a cold snort and lightly stomped on the ground with his tiptoe. A terrifying force then spread out and poured down to the ground.

The sand on the ground began to spread like ripples under the surging power. It was like the sand around them had turned into waves.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh...

The ripples spreading around Zen formed a strong momentum that could topple mountains and overturn the seas. The rows of houses in the dust and sand began to topple down, and the citizens turned into piles of yellow sand. Zen stood flaunting his strength to the guards and Maggie.

The overwhelming demonstration of Zen's power caused Maggie and the guards to retreat out of fear. She shouted as she ran, "Mist Summoning Spirit! I have brought you a person! Please show yourself!"

"Hoo, hoo, Hoo..."

At this moment, the wind was so fierce that the seven dunes standing outside the city seemed to have grown hands and legs. They quickly spread to Zen's side.

As they advanced, the yellow sand on the surface dropped grain by grain and revealed the strong green vines underneath. At the top of each vine, a giant mouth with sharp teeth appeared. Their shapes were strange and they looked grotesque.

"Is it a plant... Or a beast?"

Zen stared at it in confusion. He had a hint of disappointment on his face.

Everything he witnessed in the desert was a ruse. The only thing real was Maggie and the guards, who were divine citizens. They had worked so hard to fool him into coming here, and it was all for this so-called Mist Summoning Spirit.
