Volume 5 Chapter 235: Remembrance
"Haha! Zeng Shujin, you finally can't hold on any longer!"
Under the forty-six floating platform in Death Valley, Zeng Shujin's formation has shrunk to the point where it cannot be smaller.
There is nothing she can do about it. Three years of support and all the resources have been exhausted. If the formation is not reduced, it will be easier to be broken by outsiders.
Even so, she was at the end of her rope and could only watch helplessly as the people outside were frantically attacking the formation. Maybe the formation would be broken in the next moment.
And at that time... her fate can be imagined.
At this moment, inside the formation, Zeng Shujin was sitting cross-legged, holding the last piece of high-grade immortal crystal tightly in his hand, desperately absorbing the immortal power in it.
Then he took out the remaining pill and swallowed it, while adjusting his breath and mentality to prepare for the final impact.
That moment came faster than expected.
"Boom——"
"Click——"
There was a huge sound outside, as if the sky was falling.
Zeng Shujin gritted his teeth and smiled bitterly: "What is supposed to come will still come!"
She closed her eyes, circulated the immortal power in her body with all her heart, and concentrated all the immortal power in one place.
She knew she was unlucky, but these people were so hard on each other, and she wouldn't let them have it easy.
Then let's die together!
"Senior Sister Long, I'm here to accompany you!"
Zeng Shujin suddenly smiled, indifferent to the shattering of the battle technique. He just looked at the oncoming giant palm, his eyes filled with disdain and a hint of relief.
However--
There was a muffled sound of "bang", accompanied by a clear scream. Zeng Shujin's eyes suddenly widened, looking at the situation in front of him in disbelief.
I saw that the giant palm that was originally slapping towards me stopped in the air and bounced back!
The owner of the giant palm was thrown away heavily.
The others were inexplicably horrified, but in just a moment, they saw countless sword energies falling from the sky, as bright as shooting stars.
The screams came one after another, and then suddenly stopped.
Two figures fell from the sky.
"Senior Brother Bai, Senior Sister Luo!" Zeng Shujin stood up and shouted.
The visitors were none other than Bai Fei and Luo Qingcheng.
That day, Bai Fei Feiyunge and his party had no results and were unhappy. When they returned to the Holy Alliance, Luo Qingcheng stopped him.
He couldn't wait to hear that Xianghua knew Zeng Shujin's whereabouts.
"Brother Bai, can you take me with you?"
Xianghua told Bai Fei everything about that day. His old friend was in trouble and he didn't dare to delay any longer. He immediately decided to go to Death Valley.
As soon as he left the cave, Luo Qingcheng made such a request.
Both of them could guess the reason why Zeng Shujin went there, but Bai Fei couldn't bear to refuse.
Because he had to take care of Luo Qingcheng, Bai Fei's speed was relatively slow. Fortunately, he arrived in time.
Perhaps due to mental and physical exhaustion, Zeng Shujin was shaking a little as soon as she stood up, and Luo Qingcheng quickly supported her.
Bai Fei glanced at the dead people. Some of their clothes were somewhat familiar. He glanced at Luo Qingcheng and saw that she didn't express anything, so he didn't think much about it.
…
Standing on the broken wall of Hidden Rainbow City, both women felt depressed.
Once upon a time, this was the proud front line of the Black Waters of the human race, but now there are ruins as far as the eye can see.
Bai Fei was also a little sad.
The Continental Army and the City Guards were rebuilt because of him, and there were many people he was familiar with here. However, the cruelty of the war depressed the former glory and depressed people's hearts.
"How did she die?" Bai Fei asked after a long time.
Zeng Shujin knew who he was asking, so he sighed and told the story of Long Lianxue's death.
In the later stages of the war, the demon army launched a full-scale counterattack. As the forefront of the human race's black waters, the Si Continent Army and the City Guards fought bloody battles with them.
At that time, the human race had decided to retreat in full, but the Si continent army and the city guards were still dealing with the demon army in order to give the human army in front more time to retreat.
That battle was extremely fierce, and one monk after another fell, both human monks and demon monks.
However, the demons seemed to have made detailed arrangements, and generally speaking, the humans were very passive.
The Silu Army and City Guards, managed by Luo Qingcheng and Long Lianxue, were very powerful in combat and had indeed severely damaged the demon army.
However, in wars, especially wars between monks, once there is a gap in top strength, it will undoubtedly be fatal to the other party.
At that time, Hidden Rainbow City had become an isolated city, and most of the human monks in front had retreated. Under the bloodbath of several powerful demon clans, Hidden Rainbow City was quickly breached.
No matter in terms of numbers or comprehensive combat power, the city guards could not compare with the Silu army. After the city was broken, the situation was almost one-sided, and the human race was massacred by the demon race.
Watching his comrades fall one after another in front of him, Long Lianxue's heart bleeds. At this time, the city guards have been surrounded and it is very difficult to retreat.
Everyone is waiting for her to make a decision.
Long Lianxue's only choice was to stay and delay the powerful demons, allowing others to find opportunities to retreat.
Zeng Shujin insisted on staying with her.
Who knew... the demons actually had an ambush, and those who managed to escape under the cover of Long Lianxue and Zeng Shujin's formations all fell into the trap.
The screams came from far away, making Long Lianxue grit her teeth.
"What a pity, there are so many female human cultivators!" On the other side, a strong demon clan man glanced at Long Lianxue and Zeng Shujin, who were protected by the formation, and said with a smile: "Catch them alive for me. I have never tasted the taste of a human female cultivator!"
"Yes! Lord Liangbing!"
This person is Liang Bing. He would not go to the battlefield easily, but because he received a lot of news and learned that the demon army was quite passive and idle at the front, he took the initiative to volunteer.
He directly communicated with Dongjiao and others, and Qingyi was really unable to intervene, which led to the massacre of the Silu army and the city guards.
Originally, Qing Yi also wanted to communicate with Luo Qingcheng and others, but as soon as Liang Bing arrived on the battlefield, he guarded him all day long, called the supervisor, but he was actually guarding Qing Yi.
It wasn't until the two armies fell into a bitter battle that Liang Bing waved his sleeves and left, going to the forefront.
"Junior sister Zeng, I will create an opportunity for you later. You seize the opportunity to leave." Long Lianxue made a decision in his heart.
"Senior Sister Long, if I don't leave, even if we die, we will die together." Zeng Shujin understood her intention and flatly refused.
"Junior sister Zeng, listen to me. We can't hold on for much longer. If we continue to argue, we may not even have this chance."
"Then...Senior Sister Long, let's go together!"
Long Lianxue shook his head and said: "That demon strongman is much stronger than me. If we go together, no one can escape. They are so confident that the Silu army must be in danger as well. We will not have reinforcements. If we continue to confront each other, we will only make the demons laugh!"
"But……"
"Junior Sister Zeng, as long as you are alive, our city guard army will not be completely wiped out. It is my incompetence, Long Lianxue, that failed to save all my companions. I feel unworthy of Bai Fei's trust!" Long Lianxue sighed and continued to pick up the pieces. He took off the storage ring, put it in Zeng Shujin's hand, and said: "Tell me the operation of this formation. When the time comes, I will detonate this formation and create conditions for you. Junior Sister Zeng, you can't have any more trouble at that time." Hesitate!”
"Senior Sister Long, I..." Zeng Shujin's nose was sore, but she could only obey the order and tell Long Lianxue the operation of the formation and the detonation method.
Long Lianxue patted her shoulder, smiled slightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Liang Bing.
"The demons want my life, Long Lianxue, come and take it if you can!"
"Let's go!" She shouted again.
Zeng Shujin gritted his teeth and rose into the sky.
"Stop it!" Liang Bing was so discerning that he knew what he meant as soon as he saw this situation.
The demonic armies intercepted one after another.
At the same time, Long Lianxue detonated the formation, and the demon monks in the air were implicated and fell one after another, either dead or disabled.
"Seeking death!" Liang Bing shouted, and was about to take action himself, but the steps he had just taken not only retracted in an instant, but also floated back some distance.
The energy generated by Long Lianxue's self-destruction exploded loudly, and the surrounding buildings, as well as the demon monks who were closer, were all submerged, destroyed, and crushed.
Such a scene made Liang Bing feel a little scared.
Fortunately, Long Lianxue was not interested in killing anyone, otherwise, the casualties among the demon monks would have been even more serious.
Zeng Shujin's eyes turned red instantly.
At this moment, a huge force rushed towards her and pushed her hundreds of miles away in an instant.
Zeng Shujin knew that it was Long Lianxue who was helping her escape from the demon clan.
...Speaking of this, Zeng Shujin sniffed and said quietly: "Senior Sister Long left me the chance to live, but she... Over the years, I have been besieged by those young people before, and if I can persist for such a long time, then It’s also the credit of Senior Sister Long.”
Luo Qingcheng glanced at Bai Fei and found that he was a little absent-minded and didn't know what he was thinking.
At that time, the Silu army also suffered heavy losses. If Ouyang Xinlu hadn't led the Green South Battalion to come, how could she, Luo Qingcheng, still be standing here now?
But in the end, she was the only one left in the Silu Army, and even the Green South Camp suffered heavy losses. At that time, she really had no choice but to rush to the aid of Hidden Rainbow City.
Of course, there was no need for her to explain these things to Zeng Shujin. She believed that Zeng Shujin would know sooner or later.
"Junior Sister Zeng, you just said that after Junior Sister Long self-destructs, can she help you escape from the demon siege?" Bai Fei suddenly asked.
"Yes." Zeng Shujin nodded and said, "If it weren't for Senior Sister Long's push, maybe I would have been overtaken by a powerful demon."
"so……"
Bai Fei pondered for a while, then exhaled and said, "In this case, Junior Sister Long may still be alive."
"Ah? Senior Brother Bai, you said...you said Senior Sister Long is still alive?" Zeng Shujin instantly became excited.
Luo Qingcheng looked at Bai Fei with some confusion.
Bai Fei explained: "When a monk self-destructs, it is absolute destruction, and it is impossible to take into account other things. According to the situation you mentioned, the final force did not harm you, but helped you escape. There is only one explanation for this, then It’s just that Junior Sister Long still has a ray of consciousness left to control this power. Since she still has a consciousness, she will be reborn one day.”
"So, Senior Sister Long's thoughts are still here on the floating platform?"
Bai Fei shook his head and said: "I didn't sense the existence of any of her thoughts before. Maybe she has already left. However, we must also be mentally prepared. Even if Junior Sister Long has a trace of her thoughts left, it is extremely weak. Why? I can't say whether he will be able to wake up and be reborn."
"Senior Sister Long, no matter how far apart the world is, I will definitely find you." At this moment, Zeng Shujin secretly made a decision.
Luo Qingcheng seemed to understand her thoughts, took her hand and said, "Don't worry, Junior Sister Zeng, we will all help you."
Zeng Shujin glanced at her gratefully, took a breath and asked, "Senior Sister Luo, why are you and Senior Brother Bai here?"
Without waiting for Luo Qingcheng's answer, Bai Fei said: "We are preparing to refine a kind of elixir and need your help with the formation. We finally found out that you were trapped here, so we hurried here. Fortunately, we were not late. "
"Senior Brother Bai, Senior Sister Luo, I will go back with you." Zeng Shujin readily agreed without asking why.
First, if Bai Fei asks for something, it is her honor, and she cannot refuse.
Furthermore, she had been really tired over the years, and now that she knew Long Lianxue might still be alive, she felt more relaxed.
When will Long Lianxue's mind awaken? And in what way is it reborn?
There was no need to rush this matter. She had plenty of time to do it. The top priority was to improve her strength and knowledge of battle tactics. Otherwise, if she encountered the same thing as before, it would be difficult to be as lucky as she was today.
