Pang Jian could tell that Luo Hongyan had been fascinated by the exotic treasure in the pool, so he stopped wasting his words.
"Pang Jian, leave quickly!"
With a loud shout, Zhou Qingchen activated the power of the heart-protecting mirror and threw a crimson mountain condensed with spiritual power over Pang Jian's head.
In the sky above the towering mountains, dark red rays of light bloomed, forming a thick defensive spiritual shield.
Wherever Pang Jian is, the mountains refined by spiritual power follow him, always guarding him.
Zhou Qingchen, who was holding the cold iron sword, was pulling behind Pang Jian, turning his head frequently to pay attention to the rear.
He saw Lin Beiye, who came from the Black Valley, on the high platform next to him, facing the rock storm with his dark palm.
A thick beam of dark light, mixed with many mysterious talismans, shot into the rock storm.
All the rocks were crushed instantly, and strange talismans surrounded Qi Qingsong one by one, leaving Qi Qingsong safe and sound.
Zhou Qingchen, who was afraid that Lin Beiye would stop him and Pang Jian in their escape, immediately understood that in Lin Beiye's eyes, he and Pang Jian were not worth mentioning at all.
Heigu Lin Beiye didn't waste any energy on them, and even... didn't even look at them.
"Chi!"
A dazzling black gold sword light suddenly struck above the crimson mountain, with red and golden light sputtering everywhere.
"Dong Tianze!"
Zhou Qingchen's expression changed.
"What? It's not until now that you remember that I'm here, right?"
Dong Tianze stood up from the high platform, holding the black gold dagger named Ghost Yin, and bared his teeth at Zhou Qingchen.
Immediately, he waved his ghost chant and created a sea of black gold swords, covering Pang Jian's head.
"Crack! Click!"
The red mountain refined with spiritual power was like a real mountain, being cut into pieces by the light of the black gold sword.
Small pieces of knife light and red light splashed in all directions like a rainstorm, leaving Pang Jian below covered with bruises.
Pang Jian groaned, looking at the mirror tunnel getting closer and closer, gritted his teeth and continued to rush forward.
"You can't leave."
Dong Tianze shook his head and waved his hands coldly, creating more black gold sword light.
Pang Jian, who was charging towards the mirror tunnel, saw a sea of black gold swords appearing in front of him. He had no choice but to merge with the dragon pattern spear and turn into a flaming meteor to pierce into it.
In the sea of light, there was a sudden harsh sound of gold and iron clashing, and the crisp sound of spear shafts shattering.
The dragon pattern spear is now scrapped!
Pang Jian's hand holding the spear shaft was also penetrated by fragments of knife light, and the skin and flesh were split into slender bloody holes.
He discarded the spear shaft, rolled on the ground like Han Duping, and rushed towards the mirror tunnel.
Above his head was a sea of black gold swords drawn out by Dong Tianze waving his ghostly chant.
The sea of light made of spiritual power covered his head, like a canopy cage that shocked all living beings, preventing him from rising into the sky.
This sea of sword light is on Pang Jian's only way to the mirror tunnel. As long as he wants to enter the mirror tunnel, he cannot avoid this deadly sea of light.
"At Wulan Lake, you first robbed me of the black turtle essence and blood, and then you set an ambush at the bottom of the pit and left several blood holes in my body."
Seeing that he was struggling to move while rolling on the ground, Dong Tianze sneered sharply and finally vented some of the resentment he had accumulated over the past few days.
"I have been searching for you for many days in this bloody city, but I have never seen you show up. Hey, hard work pays off. I didn't expect to find you in the city lord's palace."
Pang Jian, who was under the sea of black golden swords, seemed to be unable to hear his sneer and was still moving forward with difficulty.
"call!"
Leng Yuan, who was standing behind Dong Tianze, suddenly floated down from the high platform, easily crossed the black golden sea of light created by Dong Tianze, and flew straight towards Zhou Qingchen.
Confirming that Pang Jian was the one Dong Tianze was destined to win, Leng Yuan took the initiative to share the pressure with him so that he could concentrate on killing Pang Jian.
"Boohoo!"
Strips of bright colored ribbons suddenly flew out from Leng Yuan's waist, surrounding Zhou Qingchen like a brilliant rainbow.
"My junior brother will go to Haosheng to take care of your little brother. I just need to keep an eye on you."
Leng Yuan pursed her lips and chuckled.
"Chi! Chi! Chi!"
In the sea of light condensed by the sword's light, there were bunches of sharp sword light, piercing downwards.
Due to Guanghai's constant downward pressure, Pang Jian had no choice but to crawl on the ground. Faced with the thrusts of the new sword light, several bloody holes soon appeared on his body.
"I'm going to make you covered in blood holes!"
Dong Tianze sneered happily.
"Pang Jian, I'm sorry for you!"
Seeing his miserable state, Zhou Qingchen screamed in grief and anger from a distance, feeling infinite regret.
He finally regretted that he had listened to the girl in white's suggestion and not left with Han Duping and the others.
He can die here because he is doing it for Jiang Li.
But Pang Jian fell into such a miserable situation because of him, which made Zhou Qingchen feel guilty.
"I'm sorry! I, Zhou Qingchen, am sorry for you..."
Looking at Pang Jian, who was struggling to even crawl under the sea of black golden swords, and how much blood was stained on his body, Zhou Qingchen burst into tears at this moment.
"sorry Sorry……"
He repeated his apology over and over again, struggling with the life-threatening ribbons, and soon his body was covered with scars.
He was only a few years older than Pang Jian.
Seeing that the person he loved had half of his arm cut off, the hot blood in the young man's heart was ignited, and he naturally wanted to do something for the person he loved.
As soon as he came in, he dared to call Qi Qingsong impulsively because he was in the marrow cleansing realm and he also had many spiritual weapons.
He had always had confidence in himself, and knowing that Pang Jian had a strange personality, he felt that they could work together to kill Qi Qingsong.
As a result, Qi Qingsong easily defused their first wave of attacks.
At that moment, Zhou Qingchen realized that there was still a huge gap between his marrow cleansing state and Qi Qingsong's.
The passion and impulse in his heart were mostly extinguished by the cruelty of reality, and he woke up at that time.
Without the instigation of the girl in white, who said that she and Qi Qingsong were equally powerful, Zhou Qingchen would never have dragged Pang Jian into another fight.
The girl in white finally confirmed that she indeed had such power.
But who would have thought that Lin Beiye and Qi Qingsong, who seemed to have nothing to do with each other, would already have a tacit understanding?
"Pang Jian!"
Zhou Qingchen, who felt infinite guilt, ignored the whipping of those rainbow ribbons, ripped off the breast shield from his chest, and threw it far away towards the sea of sword light.
"Promise me to leave alive!"
Zhou Qingchen roared loudly.
Countless cracks appeared on the mirror, which he regarded as a valuable treasure, and a power that had been dormant for many years was completely aroused.
"Crack!"
The mirror suddenly exploded, and pieces of bright crystals fell into the sea of black gold swords that covered the sky above Pang Jian's head.
Pang Jian, who was walking hard, looked up and saw many small crystals falling from the sky like diamonds and stars.
Each crystal shone with dazzling light, filled with the power of the broken space, shattering the sea of black gold swords that had been covering his head!
"Walk!"
Zhou Qingchen shouted again.
He slashed into the void with his cold iron sword, and saw one after another, fuzzy mountains made of thick spiritual energy, rising and falling.
The blurry mountains did not try to untie those gorgeous ribbons, but went straight towards Leng Yuan.
Zhou Qingchen's ferocious expression made Leng Yuan hesitate for a moment, and she did not choose to fight him with all her strength.
Zhou Qingchen just wanted to leave with Pang Jian, not to kill her or Dong Tianze. Leng Yuan didn't want to risk her own life for Dong Tianze.
Thinking that Demon Sect Lan Xi had not moved and that Lin Beiye and Qi Qingsong were still in the courtyard, Leng Yuan became even more reluctant to fight.
As a result, the hidden power within the many ribbons did not really explode.
Zhou Qingchen successfully broke away from her entanglement and turned the direction of the blurry mountains toward Dong Tianze.
He himself suddenly appeared in the shattered sea of light, grabbed Pang Jian, and shouted: "Let's go!"
"waste."
Dong Tianze, whose Wujin Sword Sea was shattered, slashed at the mountains that he hit with his sword, and his cold and fierce eyes glanced at Leng Yuan's body.
Leng Yuan felt cold in her heart and quickly gathered her strength to continue chasing Zhou Qingchen.
Pang Jian and Zhou Qingchen, covered in blood, struggled towards the mirror tunnel on the ground covered with crystal fragments.
Dong Tianze dealt with the mountain that hit him, holding a short knife named Ghost Yin, and flew down from the high platform towards the two of them.
"Pang Jian, you go first! I'll stop him!"
Zhou Qingchen roared and stopped. He looked up at Dong Tianze, only to find that Dong Tianze's attention was on Pang Jian.
The two people who arrived at the mirror tunnel were now at the end of their game and had no chance of winning against the powerful Dong Tianze.
"Remember to avenge me!"
Zhou Qingchen smiled sadly.
He squandered the remaining spiritual power as much as he could, holding the cold iron sword and going up to the sky to stop Dong Tianze in mid-air.
"Brother Zhou, live well."
It was also at this time that Zhou Qingchen heard Pang Jian and for the first time no longer addressed him as Mr. Zhou.
——Instead, he changed the name to Brother Zhou.
Zhou Qingchen, whose face was full of tears, was shocked in his heart, and grinned: "I can't live anymore, as long as you can live!"
His heart was overflowing with emotion, and knowing that Pang Jian was showing his true feelings, he called him "Brother Zhou".
Before he died, he could hear the voice of "Brother Zhou" coming from Pang Jian, and he felt that he would have no regrets in dying.
But the next moment, he was pushed into the mirror tunnel by Pang Jian with great force.
This unreasonable and arrogant force seemed to be the strength that Pang Jian desperately accumulated. It was more powerful than he imagined.
He suddenly rose into the air and flew towards the mirror tunnel out of control. He was still in the air before he could react.
He looked at Pang Jian blankly.
At this time, above Pang Jian's head was Dong Tianze who was flying down. The black gold short blade went straight towards Pang Jian's Tianling Gai and stabbed him.
Pang Jian faced him, twisted his lips and said "goodbye", and then rolled backwards to avoid it.
Pang Jian, who was getting farther and farther away from the mirror tunnel, had completely lost hope of escape.
"Pang Jian!"
Zhou Qingchen, whose heart was bleeding, only had time to let out a beast-like roar before landing on the mirror tunnel.
He just disappeared.
"Crack!"
In Pang Jian's original place, a deep and long stone crack was cut out of the hard white jade slab.
Dong Tianze floated down, glanced at Pang Jian who kept retreating, sneered and waved the ghost chant again.
"Whoa! Whoa!"
A new sea of black gold swords appeared above the mirror tunnel.
"Whether Zhou Qingchen is hiding in the Zhou family in the lower realm, or going to Hongshan in the upper realm, I will always find a way to find him and kill him."
Dong Tianze didn't care about Zhou Qingchen's escape. After making sure that there was no flaw, he looked at Pang Jian again.
"You were the one who hurt me the most in Wulan Lake! My intuition tells me that you pose a greater threat to me than Zhou Qingchen, so you are my must-kill target!"
