As the cracks in the air slowly closed, the smoke of gunpowder just now filled the fighting arena and calmed down again.

The ground that was cut beyond recognition by the wind, and the devastation scattered everywhere, seemed to witness the strange scene that happened before.

Yan Ning hurriedly turned out Lu Hongliang, who had no life, in a pile of rubble.

A look of incredulity...

Not long ago, I was still laughing and playing with my brother, and in the blink of an eye, they were separated from each other.

He lay Senior Brother Lu flat on his knees, and shouted Lu Hongliang's name loudly with a choked voice.

While constantly shaking his body, he frantically injected mana into Senior Brother Lu's body, trying to awaken his consciousness.

But I didn't get even the slightest response.....

Even so, Yan Ning was still lucky, hoping for a miracle.

Even if his voice was hoarse, and his mana was on the verge of exhaustion, he couldn't shake his heart.

The cold after the war was bitterly cold, but how could it be as painful as the departure of a friend?

The grief is hard to describe.......

After Qin Qing finished pranayama, he gently came to Yan Ning's side.

looked at the junior brother who was crying like a child in front of him, and said with pity: "Senior brother, Senior Brother Lu's vitality has dissipated. Don't embarrass him anymore and let him go quietly. ”

"Senior sister, we finally managed to break through all the way, and we can get out of this secret realm safely. Senior brother has fallen here, which makes us go out and explain to the elders, senior brother... Senior brother was fine just now!"

Yan Ning shook his head in a choked voice, still holding Lu Hongliang's unwilling response.

"The strength of that monster is no match for us. The changes that occurred in the Demon Cultivator of the Evil Moon Gate must be inseparable from the mysterious black-robed man. And we have all done our best, it is a fluke to survive, junior brother, don't blame yourself too much. ”

Qin Qing helped Yan Ning up, tidied up his neckline and scattered hair on his temples, and said with gentle comfort.

Yan Ning didn't care about her sister's actions, she had the impression that when she was a child, her sister often treated herself like this. At this time, he was still looking at the senior brother lying on the ground in a trance, unable to accept the fact of Lu Hongliang's fall at all, and muttered something to himself alone.

Along the way, Yan Ning asked himself that he had already adapted to this cruel immortal cultivation world.

For the enemy, he can be decisive and leave no hands unturned. But when he met someone close to him for the first time, he fell in front of him, but he couldn't do anything about it, this kind of ending made him really unacceptable for a while.

It was also the first time he understood that the cruelty of the so-called immortal cultivation world was not only for the enemy, but also for the people who disappeared in front of him and were close to him.

Looking at Yan Ning's dejected appearance, Qin Qing's tone changed, and he said in a slightly stern tone:

"You and I are immortal cultivators, we are originally fighting against the sky! If you are not prepared to fall at any time, and the consciousness of the people around you to keep leaving, then what kind of immortals are you cultivating, what kind of Tao do you ask! Even if you hide in the sect for the rest of your life and don't come out, you will also have a catastrophe. If you can't cross it, sooner or later you will be the same as Senior Brother Lu!"

Yan Ning's expression flickered, and she looked at her senior sister blankly.

Qin Qing continued in a somewhat encouraging tone: "The level of cultivation is not only the amount of your own mana, but also the strength of your heart and will! Only by stepping through the many tribulations on the road of cultivating immortals can you stand higher and see farther than others. ”

"If you don't want to let Senior Brother Lu die blindly, you can quickly take Senior Brother Lu and leave here. Such a big movement will definitely attract other monks, and in our current situation, no matter who comes, it will be difficult to deal with it. ”

After speaking, Qin Qing stopped looking at Yan Ning and turned around to leave this place.

After all, this place is close to the exit, and there will definitely be monks passing by. At this time, if you meet other monks, judging from the current consumption of the two of them, it is indeed more dangerous, it is better to find a hidden place to recover first, and then continue on the road.

After listening to Qin Qing's words, Yan Ning still lowered his head, and he didn't know what he was thinking. With Lu Hongliang's body on his back, he followed his senior sister to the depths of the forest in a trance.

Pausing in a dense wood, Qin Qing saw that Yan Ning was no longer as muddy as before. He sat down cross-legged and took out the storage bag he had obtained from the Demon Cultivator of the Asking Sect to check it.

Yan Ning also took out the Hidden Spirit Array and arranged it in front of him.

Looking at the few things in front of him, Qin Qing slowly spoke thoughtfully: "These should be the magic weapons that this person obtained in the Baoguang Pavilion, and these two things that were not put into the storage bag are probably the legendary ancient treasures." ”

At this time, she was holding two treasures with a simple shape in her hands.

A ring ruler that is pitch black and can't be made of any material.

The other is a wooden women's hairpin. Injecting mana into it was like mud flowing into the sea, and there was no response, obviously not the mana of her current level could drive it.

In front of him, there are also three magic weapons that are full of treasure and have strange shapes.

These magic weapons give people a very sharp feeling, and they are thought to be the things collected by the owner of the main hall. With their current realm, they couldn't distinguish the specific functions of these treasures, so they had to take them out and hand them over to the sect elders for confirmation.

Qin Qing put the three magic weapons into his storage bag, while the demon cultivator discarded them. The storage bags used by these cultivators were the same as theirs, apparently specially made, with the same markings.

Yan Ning also took out the storage bag he had snatched from the obscene monk and looked at it, in addition to the three magic weapons inside, there were also two hundreds of years of medicinal herbs.

At this time, Yan Ning's mood was still very low, and while cleaning up the storage bag, he chattered and said: "These things are not something we can have, but let us fight for life and death here, hey... ”

After finishing speaking, Yan Ning seemed to suddenly remember something, and his spirit was shocked.

took the two ancient treasures from Qin Qing's hands, and then took out the jade pendant on his chest.

Unexpectedly, just with the mentality of giving it a try, he really got his wish, and the two ancient treasures that could not be included in the storage bag were included in his inconspicuous jade pendant!

Qin Qing was a little surprised at first, and then obviously knew Yan Ning's plan, and asked with some uncertainty, "Can it work?"

Yan Ning took out the ancient treasure from the jade pendant again, experimented back and forth a few times, and nodded to Qin Qing to confirm: "Senior sister, don't worry, when I came in before, the black-robed man outside didn't notice that the jade pendant was wrong, and when we go out, we will each have one." ”

Qin Qing didn't ask anything anymore, but just advised: "Senior Brother Lu's storage bag should not be opened, let's just leave it to the elders for disposal after we go out." Also, don't take anything else! it's too obvious to make people suspicious. ”

After speaking, he no longer paid attention to Yan Ning, and resumed his self-care pranayama.

......................

Beyond the Secret Realm.

The black-robed monk who had been waiting for the exit with an expressionless face frowned slightly when the demon transformed by the demon cultivator surnamed Ding was swallowed by the spatial crack.

Behind him, the primordial old monsters on both sides of the positive and demonic sides stared eagerly at the entrance of the cave that was gradually closing in front of them, and transmitted sounds to each other from time to time, as if they were discussing something.

Counting the time, today is the final day for those foundation building disciples who have entered the secret realm.

The Yuanying Elder of Lumen Valley saluted the black-robed man and asked with some doubts, "Dare to ask Daoyou, is it true that this secret realm can't be kept open?"

It seems that during the time that everyone is waiting, the black-robed man should have introduced the appearance of this secret realm.

Regarding the statement that this secret realm could not be maintained, not only the Lumen Valley Yuanying Elder, but even the three Yuanying of the Demon Gate were also very unwilling, obviously not believing it.

"It took a lot of effort for this seat to find out the location of this place! It was also thanks to a blood sacrifice of this scale that it was able to forcibly squeeze the space and drag out a corner of the secret realm. Do you think this is your backyard, and if you say open it, you will open it? If you suffer a loss here, will you come here and be fooled when you come back?"

The black-robed man's voice was still hoarse and harsh, making it impossible to figure out specific emotions from it.

Hongling Daogu on the side asked a little incredulously: "According to the meaning of Daoyou, doesn't it mean that this secret realm space has an autonomous consciousness?

The black-robed man laughed twice, noncommittal, and didn't answer.

A group of well-informed old monsters, as if they had heard some fantasy at this time, looked at each other, looked at each other and communicated with each other.

The black-robed man in front of him with unfathomable strength obviously had a deep understanding of the origin of this secret realm.

But because the other party's strength is too terrifying, everyone doesn't dare to offend, and it's not good to continue to ask.

However, in the eyes of these Yuanying monks, although the secret realm in front of them is a little mysterious, but with the joint efforts of all factions, it is not impossible to open it again. As for his previous remarks, most of them were just alarmists.

If it's really difficult to open, it's a big deal that the two sides will cooperate again.

Of course, it also depends on how the disciples who entered it this time gained, and whether the products in the secret realm were worth such a big capital from both sides.

And the disciples who entered this time should be the first to explore the way.

The black-robed monk obviously didn't want to say anything more on the topic of this secret realm, and said coldly to the primordial old monsters on both sides of the righteous and demonic sides with authority:

"This seat emphasizes again, the storage bags of those who will come out will all be handed over to this seat!"

"I have promised that as long as I have mentioned something, I will not interfere with what your factions have gained. If there is indeed someone who has taken a fancy to you, he will naturally pay the same price to exchange with you, and he will not treat you badly. Guys, don't you have any opinions?"

As soon as the words fell, a terrifying momentum suddenly enveloped the area.

The elders of the Yuanying and the Demon were so shocked by this power that they could even feel a trace of qi that locked them in.

A group of old monsters all said that they had no opinion, although they were all hundreds or thousands of years old, they obviously still hadn't lived enough, and they knew the truth.

Especially the decent five, it can be said that they are simply aggrieved at this moment.

From being pitted into the game, to losing countless disciples, but not even the shadow of the treasure was seen, and in the end, it was just the result of running around.

However, he has to be subject to the strongman, so he can only swallow his anger.

Now I just hope that the other party can keep his promise by then, and maybe he can gain something from his side.

Otherwise, the five factions of them will marry others this time, and from now on, they will be a big laughing stock in the Qi country.
