Broken Dome. Fallen pillars. Destroyed brick wall. Cracked ground.
The central machinery in the center of the hall made a harsh roar and billowed out thick smoke.
Together with the light pillar connecting the cornerstone of the world above, it was also obscured by dust and mist.
Water from the Tianchi poured down from the cracks in the collapsed dome, forming waterfalls above the hall.
While Ling Yao was choking on the dust, he looked up and could even vaguely see the cornerstone of the world that should have been suspended directly above Tianchi.
"There they are!"
Looking along Xiao Jinnian's direction, Ling Yao saw the figures of Zhong Zhennan and Ling Linhan in the smoke and dust.
The two of them were fighting passionately, and they were inseparable. They were jumping up and down, unscrupulously, punching to the flesh, and making deadly moves.
——As if unaware of everything happening in the central hall.
Oh no, at least Ling Yao could see that Ling Linhan still had concerns about the center being destroyed.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been distracted during the battle several times.
As for why Ling Linhan was distracted while still fighting with Zhong Zhennan...
Ling Yao glanced at the control center that was still partially functioning despite the malfunction, and quickly understood the aura of the so-called "Nine Heavens Heavy Cloud Tower" that he had felt on Ling Linhan earlier.
Isn’t that what Da Laoge said, the place of inheritance itself is the “protagonist” plug-in.
The huge energy accumulated by Patriarch Tianxin was left here, and the "Nine Heavens Chongyun Tower" is the only key to control the inheritance place.
Even if the control center is destroyed, the power Ling Linhan can use is enough to deal with Zhong Zhennan.
After all, the difference between him and Zhong Zhennan only lies in the spiritual power reserves of two small realms.
It is estimated that Zhong Zhennan also knew this, so he attacked the control center first to destroy Ling Linhan's advantage.
But doesn't he know that destroying the control center will lead to the destruction of the entire inheritance land?
Or does he just not care?
But this is not logical! Ling Yao had previously speculated that the inheritance land had long been under the control of Shenlong Academy, and was only "shared" with other forces for a certain purpose.
No matter what intentions the college has towards external forces like them, the ultimate goal is definitely to obtain more benefits in the land of inheritance.
Even if they don't succeed this time, they can wait until the space is opened next time before making arrangements.
But now Zhong Zhennan is forcibly attacking the control center in order to defeat Ling Linhan. Doesn't this turn the trip to the Heritage Land into a one-shot deal?
This is not in the interest of the college!
But as Zhong Zhennan is a confidant of the college's senior officials and the number one student among Shenlong College, the interests of the college and his own interests should be linked to the greatest extent possible!
Not to mention that he will definitely benefit from the opening of the inheritance place in the future;
Even if he doesn't get any benefits, he shouldn't disobey the academy and risk being severely punished by the academy to destroy this place!
It's impossible that Zhong Zhennan is really so angry with this guy Ling Linhan, right?
Looking at the two people fighting fiercely on the ruins, Ling Yao thought for a moment and decided to walk to the control center to protect the device out of the scope of the battle between the two people.
The two people in front of them must have their own thoughts, and they are not easy to deal with Ling Yao himself. Ling Yao has no intention of helping anyone for the time being.
No matter what the purpose of each of these two people is, he must first keep the inheritance place running as much as possible.
Once the control center is completely shut down, the alien space where the inheritance is located will directly collapse and be destroyed.
And when the space begins to collapse, the talisman that relies on the power of space will lose its effect.
Everyone in the space will be directly annihilated in the turbulence of the void!
Ling Yao could crush the talisman and escape now, but it was still too late.
But he didn't come alone. There are at least a dozen people left in Jianmen, including direct disciples like Ke Shuyu.
Even if he doesn't care about the safety of his fellow sect members, he still has to take care of Yue Yaofeng's situation in the Sword Sect.
If he, as the future peak master of Yueyao Peak, abandons Sun Yao Peak and puts his successor in danger today, Yueyao Peak will no longer have any credibility in the Sword Sect, and the hostility between Yueyao Peak and Sun Yao Peak will become even greater.
At least it must be maintained until he conveys the news of the imminent destruction of the different space to Ke Shuyu and the others.
Of course, he also thought about repairing the control center himself.
However, even those Guangtuanzi who were very close to him had already displayed the entire spiritual structure and mechanism hubs of the control center in his consciousness.
But the control center seems to only accept the chaotic spiritual power of the five elements coexisting, and is very resistant to Ling Yao, who is only good at the wood element.
Ling Yaokong had the blueprints and strength, but he didn't have the tools to repair the center, so he could only stare at the device.
This made him couldn't help but criticize Patriarch Tianxin's weird design.
The control center of the inheritance place can only be accessed by him and those who have the exact same skill as him.
But who in the normal world would cultivate themselves into a pentagonal almighty king?
With that free time, practitioners are more willing to specialize in one attribute!
In the previous tests, no one could get the complete copy of Patriarch Tianxin's skills, even if they entered the skill stone tablet.
So as expected, as those little dumplings said, Patriarch Tianxin did not intend for his disciples to gain anything in this final level.
It’s really the same “bad taste” as always.
Ling Yao was thinking wildly while building up his defense, while trying to contact Ke Shuyu using the communication stone.
However, it may be due to the chaotic folding of space here that the communication stone never works.
When Zhong Zhennan saw the arrival of Ling Yao and Xiao Jinian, he was also a little surprised.
However, he saw that Ling Yao only protected the control center and did not interfere in the battle between himself and Ling Linhan. Xiao Jinnian did not make any moves and seemed to be relieved and continued to fight with Ling Linhan.
This also made Ling Yao more certain that Zhong Zhennan's previous purpose of destroying the control center was not to destroy the inheritance place itself, but just to weaken Ling Linhan's power.
But even at the risk of destroying the inheritance place and even perishing with the different space, Ling Linhan must be killed here...
Ling Yao really couldn't think of any reason for Zhong Zhennan.
Even if the college secretly values Ling Linhan, it won't threaten Zhong Zhennan's status in the college, right?
Even if the title of the first student is taken away, wouldn't the second and third students be important to Shenlong Academy?
Just for the same status and resources?
The ranking competition among the disciples within his Jian Sect regarding future cultivation resources was not that crazy!
Unless the victory or defeat between them is about life...
It seems that he is going to change his original concept.
On the surface, Shenlong Academy treats students equally and competes fairly; but behind the scenes, the bloody cruelty is probably even worse than that of Jianmen.
Ling Linhan suddenly shouted loudly, and the phantom of Jiutian Chongyun Tower appeared behind him, colliding head-on with Zhong Zhennan who was protected by the angry-eyed King Kong.
It seems that as the inheritance land gradually disintegrates, Ling Linhan also realizes that the tug-of-war is not good for him. His power will only continue to weaken as the inheritance place continues to delay.
He wanted to fight Zhong Zhennan quickly.
As the two collided head-on again, the strong wind blew Ling Yao's robes loudly.
For a moment, the central hall shook even more violently, and the ground shook so much that Ling Yao almost lost his balance.
He frowned and looked up above his head. The water from Tianchi poured in, and the light beam connecting the cornerstone of the world began to shift and twist.
The cornerstone of the world that supports the land of inheritance has broken away from the restrictions of the control center and seems to be condensing its own energy!
Ling Yao suddenly felt bad as he watched the light balls surrounding him chirping towards the cornerstone of the world.
The land of inheritance collapsed faster than he imagined!
But the other people in Jianmen are still outside the range of the communication stone. what to do?
If he wants to continue to delay time, he must take action:
"Hey! Kid! Can you repair the control center!"
The collision between Zhong Zhennan and Ling Linhan had just ended. The two tied again and jumped away from each other.
Ling Linhan's strategy of exchanging injuries for injuries made both of them quite embarrassed.
Hearing Ling Yao's sudden question, he was stunned for a moment and quickly figured out what Ling Yao wanted to do.
Although he still didn't trust this guy in his heart, but now...
In order to preserve the place of inheritance, he seems to have no other choice:
"I……"
However, before he could finish his words, Zhong Zhennan suddenly rushed forward and swept towards Ling Linhan with a flying kick!
Ling Linhan suddenly felt the crisis and immediately leaned back, barely avoiding the leg, and then shouted to Ling Yao:
"I can maintain the control center! Help me deal with this guy! I can buy time for others to escape!"
Ling Yao immediately paused as he drew his sword forward, almost tripping over.
What you said is correct...but I am obviously here to buy time. Why do I say this to you, as if all the credit belongs to you! ?
Angry. Who taught this brat to talk to people like this?
"Ling Yao! If you dare to go against me, let alone yourself, I guarantee that no one in your Jianmen sect will be alive..."
call out--
However, the answer to Zhong Zhennan was Ling Yao's dazzling sword.
——Shadow Moon Style!
"Where do you get the confidence to think that your words are credible?"
when--!
The Liuming Sword collided with Zhong Zhennan's armor, and there was a harsh scratching sound among the flashing sparks.
Taking advantage of Ling Yao's sword to block Zhong Zhennan's swing, Ling Linhan immediately turned sideways and ran away, limping towards the control center.
Xiao Jinnian, who was far away, saw that Ling Yao had made a choice, so he naturally stepped forward to cooperate, protecting Ling Linhan and watching the battle closely.
He believed in Ling Yao's strength, and his own level of Golden Tribulation couldn't be of much help in the battle between these two people.
Protecting Ling Linhan, who was repairing his center, was what he needed to do to maximize his value.
And the battle on Ling Yao's side has just begun.
With a flick of his wrist, he turned the sword's edge again, changing the forward thrust to an oblique slash, and gouged out the south face of Zhong Zhen with one sword.
Zhong Zhennan spat, knowing that Ling Yao would rather believe Ling Linhan, a one-minded fool, than the duplicitous one.
It’s not that I can’t understand it. If he were in Ling Yao's perspective, he might make the same choice.
but……
Zhong Zhennan's palms were as strong as rocks, and he forcefully swatted away Ling Yao's tricky chops at the cost of injury.
Then, regardless of the flashing lightning spiritual power, he put his palm on the back of the sword and stood up:
"I thought everyone in Jianmen was as proud as a sword. Now it seems that you are just a submissive lackey!"
"Do you think you will feel better if you help him deal with me? Will he let you go? You are the same as me... I am dead! You will be next!"
Sword practitioners are good at close combat, but swords are still relatively long among short weapons.
Once someone is close to you, it is difficult for a long sword to turn around and defend, and it is far less flexible than a short dagger.
Zhong Zhennan's sudden move was just to take advantage of Ling Yao's unpreparedness, trade injury for strength, and break through Ling Yao's defense in one fell swoop!
"I said...is there something wrong with your brain?"
However, Zhong Zhennan's pushing palm was blocked by a transparent wall of air in front of Ling Yao's chest, making him unable to make any further progress!
"Does the world revolve around Ling Linhan? What makes you think that by doing this, I am 'helping' Ling Linhan?"
Ling Yao suddenly tilted his neck slightly and looked directly at Zhong Zhennan, with a careless smile on his originally serious and nervous face.
"I am such a vengeful person, so naturally I do this because——
"I want to kill you, do you need any other reason?"
It was this smile that made Zhong Zhennan feel numb at this moment:
"You've actually...!"
It’s actually been a disaster!
However, Ling Yao was not prepared to answer Zhong Zhennan's doubts. Instead, he suddenly injected a large amount of thunder and lightning spiritual power into the Liuming Sword, causing the Liuming Sword to burst into intense purple light.
Zhong Zhennan was horrified and immediately wanted to escape and retreat.
However, the sword spine that he had just actively pressed against now sucked him in, making it impossible for him to escape.
"Whether everyone in Jianmen is proud or not is hard to say.
"But I can give you a taste of how arrogant Jianmen's swords are!"
Stab-!
The Liuming Sword grazed Zhong Zhennan's palm, making a hissing sound as the flesh was broken and burned, breaking through the spiritual protection around Zhong Zhennan, and slashed straight towards his heart!
==There is also a small theater today==
Ling Yao: "Let you experience how proud Jianmen's swords are!"
Ling Linhan recalled that night... and shivered.
Qiu Tianming: "The swords of Jianmen are not for you to blow up for fun! Stop it!!"
