At the same time, Noah finally found the location of the next level. With the help of many of his clansmen, he quickly pried up the wooden planks and opened the gap to the next level.
Seeing this, the many dark gods were furious and wanted to attack the group, but they were blocked by the raging flames of the Flame Array. These flames were generated by the true flames of the sun and were even more terrifying than the original Flame Array. Everything that stepped into it would be burned to ashes.
The group didn't linger. They descended down the floorboards that Noah had pried open, and the roars of the Dark Demon were gradually cut off as the wooden planks were repaired.
However, that was the end of the journey. As the group continued down, both Taishan and Noah stopped in front of the last plank, their gazes fixed solemnly on the ground below.
"Looks like this is where the main power system is located. The welcoming ceremony is quite enthusiastic!" Ye Jun sneered. Seeing that everyone was ready, he raised his hand and unleashed a burst of flame that shattered the final barrier.
In an instant, a dense aura of darkness swept over us, just like in the previous floors, but this time, powerful auras were also spreading through it.
"This is the floor. Those should be the controllers for this ghost ship. Once we control them, we can directly control the direction the ghost ship travels!" As the light appeared, the scenery below gradually came into view.
Aside from the countless dark creatures, the rest were enormous machines made of wooden stakes, churning and groaning as the ghost ship moved.
"Then, this is going to be a tough battle!" Zhulong said calmly, slowly opening his tightly closed eyes. Two beams of light swept forward, and a large number of dark creatures fell instantly, but they were quickly stopped by the dark god on the other side.
These dark creatures are not comparable to the strange beasts or dark demons mentioned above. They are a group of genuine civilized beings, each wielding their own weapons. They are also old acquaintances from the Primordial Star, the Dark Serpent People.
It's conceivable that this ghost ship was built by them. This wasn't the same group they encountered before; this time, it was a group of Dark Serpent People who had truly developed a form of civilization.
"Hiss~~~ Ignorant creatures~~~" The leader of the dark serpent-men let out a low growl as he spat out apricots. He was speaking the Common Language, a language invented by the myriad worlds to facilitate communication between different planes. It was easy to understand with the help of magic, and some high-ranking dark creatures could also learn it.
"Oh? So we've got one with brains? Shouldn't we try to negotiate first?" Taishan joked. It was quite rare to encounter a dark creature that could communicate and was willing to communicate.
"They just think you're an idiot, and don't seem to want to communicate with you at all!" Fuxi said helplessly. With that murderous aura and contemptuous look, how could they possibly have any intention of having a proper conversation with you?
"Submit to the darkness, and you will be spared death!" The snake-man in the lead ignored their conversation and continued speaking with malice.
His race has already established a civilization in the darkness, and the fact that powerful beings have fallen into darkness and joined their civilization will undoubtedly make them even stronger.
"Heh heh, I'm the Grim Reaper now! You're going to spare my life?" Noah laughed loudly. He had now taken over Fengdu City. Although he was only one of the Ten Kings of Hell, on the Primordial Star, he was a true Grim Reaper. How could a god who controlled the life and death of all things be asked to spare his life? Wasn't that the biggest joke in the world?
"Alright, they were just saying that, and we were just listening. Did you really believe them?" Ye Jun sneered. As the sun, being called an ignorant being was undoubtedly a great humiliation to him, and he no longer had the heart to make fun of him.
As Ye Jun finished speaking, the scorching sun had already risen, and the warm sunlight swept away the surrounding darkness, making all the Dark Serpent People feel the burning heat.
"You continue searching for a way to control the ghost ship. We'll hold off these guys!" Fuxi said to the many sixth-tier followers. The dark serpent people were powerful and numerous, including many seventh-tier demigods. Staying to fight would only be a waste of their lives. Even Zhulong and the others were only trying to buy some time. For the five of them to face dozens of dark gods was no different from sending themselves to their deaths.
"Alright!" The Rakshasa wanted to go up and fight, but the angels immediately nodded in agreement. These dark serpent people were beyond their capabilities, so it was better to leave them to the more capable ones.
Many of the sixth-tier clansmen continued their search for a way to control the ghost ship, while Ye Jun and his group had already officially clashed with the Dark Serpent People.
The vast, blazing sun was blocked by a dark, transparent shield of light. It was a talisman produced by a snake-man, covered with mysterious dark runes. Its surging power prevented Ye Jun from being scorched by the blazing sun.
Meanwhile, the other dark serpent people took the opportunity to raise dark magic shields, protecting themselves and resisting the penetration of light, so that their power would not be weakened under the light.
"Hiss~~~ Foolish creatures, you have blasphemed the great darkness! I, in the name of eternal darkness, grant you your end!" A dark serpent-man leaped high and pounced towards Ye Jun and the others.
He held a rusty spear in his hand, which was filled with an aura of darkness and depravity, and in the light, it seemed as if black blood was flowing on it.
As the spear thrust towards the crowd, Ye Jun, who was being stared at, even heard a series of wails, as if countless souls were bound within it, screaming in pain.
"Get out of my way!" Ye Jun roared, slashing his Flaming Divine Sword at the opponent. Not only did it deflect the snake-man, but terrifying flames also swept over him, as if to burn him to ashes.
The clash between the two sides served as a signal, and the dark serpent men behind them immediately charged forward one after another.
Only a few Dark Serpent People dared to face Ye Jun and his group. Most of them targeted the angels and Rakshasa behind them, but how could Ye Jun and his group let them pass? Flames, light... and even the kingdom of the dead summoned by Noah.
This time, everyone held nothing back, displaying their strongest abilities to block the advance of these dark snake-men.
"Give me a minute!" Fuxi didn't say much. His presence on the main battlefield wouldn't affect the army. His role was in the formation. Once the offensive formation was established, no matter how many dark serpent men came, they wouldn't be enough for him to kill.
