Instructor Hong's pupils suddenly contracted. He stretched out his hand to grab Baili Pangpang who was about to fall into the passage. With his other hand, he pulled out a straight knife from his waist and stabbed it into the rock wall next to him to stop his falling figure.
Shen Qingzhu also drew his sword and stabbed it into the rock wall, but his body was too weak, and the blade only penetrated one-third of the wall. His whole body tilted slightly downward, and it seemed that he could not hold on for long.
Ma Yitian, with one arm broken and covered in blood, was standing vertically on the rock wall, looking at the three people in front of him with a sneer, and suddenly he was stunned.
"Where's that kid?"
He looked up and down again, and confirmed that there was no trace of Lin Qiye in this passage, and his heart was full of doubts.
Before the Flame Dragon spewed out a fireball, he used his ability to leave the cave. After flying forward underground for a long time, he found that no explosion happened, so he turned back in confusion and flew back into the cave.
Only then did he realize that both the Flame Vein Earth Dragon and the others were gone!
He was at a loss as to what was happening here, but he soon discovered a passage suddenly appeared above his head. He guessed that they might have gone to the surface through this passage, so he quickly chased upwards, trying to kill Lin Qiye.
When he got here, he found that Lin Qiye was not here at all, and he was stunned for a moment.
Shen Qingzhu frowned and was about to say something, but Baili Pangpang rolled his eyes and spoke first:
"Nanayo, he's... dead."
"Dead?!" Ma Yitian was stunned, "How did he die?"
"He was thrown into the lava by the Flame Dragon... and burned to death." Baili Pangpang stared at Ma Yitian intently, speaking with seven parts of grief and three parts of sadness.
"What did Lin Qiye do wrong? Why did you insist on killing him? Damn it, damn it!"
Seeing Baili Pangpang's eyes suddenly exploded, Instructor Hong was stunned at first, and then he stared at Ma Yitian's eyes with a ferocious face, as if he wanted to cut him into pieces!
Ma Yitian raised his eyebrows, "Then how did you survive? Why didn't the Flame Vein Earth Dragon kill you? What's going on with this passage?"
Baili Pangpang: …
"In fact, the Flame Vein Earth Dragon let us go because he thought we looked friendly, and even opened a way for us to go back." Baili Pangpang said seriously.
Ma Yitian stared at Baili Pangpang, then sneered, "Do you think I will believe your lies?"
As soon as he finished speaking, half of his body turned into black light and poured into the rock wall under his feet. Then the surrounding rock walls seemed to come alive and began to surge wildly!
Dozens of solid ground spikes suddenly burst out and stabbed straight into the bodies of the three people!
However, when he stabbed, he deliberately avoided the vital points of Shen Qingzhu and Baili Pangpang, and he really wanted to kill Instructor Hong.
"After the two gods' agents escaped, even if I return alive, I will not have a good ending. However, if I can bring back the young master of the Baili family and that genius, maybe I can make up for it..."
Ma Yitian's face was full of madness!
The sharp spikes appeared very suddenly and were positioned very tricky. Even though Shen Qingzhu, who was already exhausted, tried his best to dodge, two spikes pierced his right leg. The severe pain made him pale, but he kept clenching his teeth and said nothing.
As for Baili Pangpang who was held by Instructor Hong, at the moment when the spikes were about to pierce his body, a huge force came from his arm. Instructor Hong's whole body was flashing with blue light, and he pulled Baili Pangpang like Spider-Man, bouncing on the walls on both sides, narrowly avoiding most of the spikes.
Only a few of them grazed Instructor Hong's cheeks because he was unable to dodge, leaving several deep bloody marks.
"You should lose weight!" Instructor Hong was pulling a fat man weighing nearly 200 pounds. He was too slow and had difficulty bouncing between the two vertical walls.
Baili Pangpang's old face turned red, and he was not idle either. He took out [One Transforms into Three Thousand] from his pocket, and with a flick of the sword, a rain of swords flew towards Ma Yitian!
Ma Yitian, with half of his body integrated into the rock wall, sneered. Hundreds of ground spikes burst out in front of him, accurately blocking all the sword shadows and completely blocking their upward route.
"My Forbidden Ruins can assimilate itself to the surrounding environment. In this extreme environment, you cannot defeat me."
Ma Yitian's body sank a little deeper into the rock wall, and the originally circular passage suddenly shrank. At the same time, spikes burst out from the ground, as if they wanted to stab the three of them to death in this narrow space.
Instructor Hong narrowed his eyes and spoke calmly: "He was already seriously injured before, and now he is just at the end of his strength. If we use all our strength... we may not be able to defeat him!"
Baili Pangpang and Shen Qingzhu nodded at the same time, their eyes more serious than ever before.
Right now, it is truly a life-and-death situation.
In this narrow passage, only one party is destined to survive.
Second-rate!
Shen Qingzhu's knife tilted slightly again, and he was about to fall into the passage. He was not panicked at all, but gently stretched out his other hand and snapped his fingers heavily upwards!
boom!!
A violent explosion broke out in the narrow space. The many spikes above everyone's heads shattered directly. The scorching air waves almost roasted Instructor Hong and Baili Pangpang, but they did not hesitate at all and seized the opportunity to attack suddenly!
Instructor Hong's body was shining with blue light. He first swung Baili Pangpang upwards with force, and at the same time he bounced lightly between the rock walls on both sides, moving upwards like lightning!
Baili Pangpang took a deep breath and took out a black ring from his pocket. The black light surged and turned into a blade which was held in Baili Pangpang's hand. He slashed towards Ma Yitian with force.
[Soul-breaking Sword]!
Ma Yitian grinned grimly, and the rock wall beneath him rolled violently, turning into a giant hammer that smashed towards the black Soul-Breaking Sword!
The corners of Baili Pangpang's mouth rose slightly.
The next moment, the giant hammer penetrated the Soul-Breaking Sword as if it were nothing, and smashed heavily on Baili Pangpang's body!
At the same time, the Soul-Breaking Sword also pierced through all the rocks in front of Ma Yitian, leaving a fierce knife mark on his chest!
The Soul-Breaking Sword only damages the soul and body and ignores protective gear.
Baili Pangpang was hit by the huge hammer. He spurted out a mouthful of blood and was smashed directly into the rock wall behind him. The huge impact force made him faint.
With such a huge disparity in combat power between the two sides, Baili Pangpang could only use this kind of mutual destruction tactic to create opportunities for Instructor Hong.
Aaaah!!
Ma Yitian, whose soul was injured, turned pale. The severe pain from his soul filled his mind. His whole consciousness became blurred and he wailed in pain.
At this moment, Instructor Hong appeared in front of Ma Yitian, his eyes wide open, blue light shining around him, and his fists fell on him like raindrops!
Boom! !
Ma Yitian's body was hit and embedded in the rock wall. He was in a trance, but Instructor Hong did not stop. He pulled him out of the rock wall and punched him hard upwards!
Then, he pulled out the straight knife from the rock wall with his backhand, jumped up, and stabbed it into Ma Yitian's chest like lightning!
Then, a heavy punch!!
Boom!!!
Ma Yitian was covered in wounds, with blood splattered from his chest being pierced. His body was knocked vertically into the passage by this punch, and fell to the bottom of the seemingly endless passage...
There, there is boiling magma and flames.
After completing this set of movements at lightning speed, Instructor Hong's figure bounced quickly on the walls on both sides, and grabbed Baili Pangpang who was falling unconscious, and Shen Qingzhu who almost slipped.
Instructor Hong carried one on each shoulder, gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and used all his strength to bounce between the two walls, moving quickly in a Z-shape to the top of the upward passage.
Without Baili Pangpang's elevator, he could only use this most stupid method. However, carrying two people on his back, even if Instructor Hong could enhance his elasticity, it was still very strenuous.
But he had no choice.
These two are Hong Hao’s soldiers, and neither of them can be left behind!
Instructor Hong carried the two people on his shoulders and moved upwards continuously for more than two minutes using the bouncing method. His muscles were extremely sore and the blue light flashing around him was getting weaker and weaker.
How far is it from the surface
Instructor Hong didn’t know.
Ever since he started jumping with two people on his shoulders, his energy did not allow him to continue to be distracted by calculating the distance. He put everything into his feet.
Jump! Keep jumping! Don't stop!
Stop, all three of them must die!
At this moment, a ray of fire appeared faintly in the seemingly endless deep passage under their feet.
The heat wave hit them from the soles of their feet. Instructor Hong and Shen Qingzhu were both startled and looked down at the same time.
In the dark and deep passage, the raging fire tornado was like a erupting volcano, filling the narrow rock walls and rushing upward at an astonishing speed. Wherever it went, the surrounding rock walls seemed to melt and collapse into a bottomless cave.
It was like a roaring fire dragon, opening its ferocious mouth, wanting to swallow everything.
But they all knew that it was not a fire dragon, because at the top of the flame was a familiar human face.
It’s Ma Yitian’s face.
"Die, die, die, die... If I die, I will take all of you with me!" Only half of Ma Yitian's face was left in the flames, but it was still extremely ferocious. He stared at the three people above, his eyes full of madness and resentment!
How can this be
Shen Qingzhu's eyes were filled with disbelief, "His heart has been pierced, how could he not be dead!?"
Instructor Hong's face looked a little ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "His mental fluctuations are completely messed up... He should have taken some kind of drug to forcibly prolong his life."
This mad dog!!
Instructor Hong's legs were shaking slightly due to fatigue. He looked at the rapidly approaching fire tornado and the rapidly collapsing rock wall below him, and his heart sank completely.
Ma Yitian was determined to bury them with him. Even if Shen Qingzhu could extinguish the flames, he would not be able to deal with the ultra-high temperature magma contained in them. The magma would melt the surrounding rock walls and cause the passage to collapse...
Having lost their foothold, the three of them fell back into the cave and were buried in the lava.
Right now, there is only one way.
Before the raging fire tornado reached the cave where they were, it first strangled Ma Yitian, causing the flames and magma he had assimilated to fall back into the cave.
Instructor Hong glanced at the fire tornado that was approaching under his feet, and made up his mind. He drew the straight knife from his waist and thrust it deep into the rock wall.
Then he pulled out Shen Qingzhu's knife and stabbed it into the rock wall.
The two straight knives left a foothold on this completely vertical rock wall.
"The black light that Lin Qiye pierced through the ground just now was very conspicuous. The other instructors will surely arrive soon and find a way to rescue us... You take Baili Tuming and wait here. The two swords should be able to support the bodies of both of you."
Instructor Hong placed Baili Pangpang's body on two straight knives deeply embedded in the rock wall, and spoke calmly to Shen Qingzhu.
Shen Qingzhu frowned slightly, "What do you want to do?"
"It's what an instructor should do." Instructor Hong replied calmly.
Shen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Instructor Hong took a deep breath, and seemed to have thought of something, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"No need to be sad or feel guilty. To die in front of your soldiers in this way is the best fate for us instructors."
Instructor Hong slowly closed his eyes and reached out to touch his chest...
"I was still a little upset after being interrupted by Lin Qiye. After all, it's a rare opportunity for me to show off.
However, I didn't expect the second chance to come so soon. "
Still a little regretful...
Instructor Hong sighed in his heart.
Suddenly, he froze in place.
He rubbed his hands around his chest, and after a moment, he lowered his head in confusion...
"Where is my emblem?" Instructor Hong was confused. He clearly remembered that he had put the emblem in the lining of his clothes!
The corners of Shen Qingzhu's mouth rose slightly.
He leaned down gently and took the black ring from the unconscious Baili Pangpang's hand...
Then he jumped off the straight knife...
The descending gale mixed with the heat waves made his blood-stained black military coat rustle. In the palm of his right hand, a familiar emblem gleamed.
When Instructor Hong saw this scene, his pupils suddenly contracted!
when…
Suddenly, his body trembled, and he thought of Shen Qingzhu's hand brushing across his body just now when he was using his knife to make a fulcrum on the rock wall...
he…
Instructor Hong widened his eyes and looked in disbelief at the figures that kept falling into the fire tornado.
The heat wave blew Shen Qingzhu's hair. He looked at the increasingly bright fire in front of him, slowly closed his eyes, and spoke calmly:
"I said, today, I don't want to see anyone sacrificed..."
Hong Hao, I don’t like you. I haven’t liked you since I entered the camp, but I have to admit... you are a good instructor.
Good man, shouldn't die.
clang!
With a slight sound, a thin silver needle popped out from the side of the emblem. Shen Qingzhu exerted force with his palm and stabbed it into his body.
Immediately afterwards, his aura began to soar wildly!
"Pool" realm, the peak of "Pool" realm, "Chuan" realm, the peak of "Chuan" realm...
His fingers gently rubbed the surface of the black ring, and with the infusion of his peak spiritual power at the "Chuan" realm, a huge black soul-breaking sword more than two meters long appeared in his hand! !
He had used the Soul-Breaking Sword before. It was lent to him by that fat guy...
Oh, by the way, I also told him that if he failed to wipe out all the "believers", he would sink their ashes to the bottom of the sea...
Damn it, I said "If I can get out alive this time", wouldn't the fat guy forget it? He wouldn't be so stupid as to dig up his own body and scatter his ashes into the sea... If that happens, I won't let him go even if I become a ghost!
Oh, I forgot... If nothing unexpected happens, there won't be any body left this time.
Shen Qingzhu watched the fire tornado with Ma Yitian's face getting closer and closer, and smiled self-deprecatingly.
However, it seems not bad to be buried in a mountain with my brothers.
Amid the howling of wind and flames, Shen Qingzhu raised the Soul-Breaking Sword in his hand high up... and swung it down with all his might! !
The pitch-black blade instantly cut the face in the flames into two pieces. Under Ma Yitian's extremely painful and resentful expression, his last soul was completely destroyed and his face disappeared in the flames.
The soul is destroyed!
The figure in the black military coat also fell into the raging flames.
"Shen Qingzhu!!!!" Instructor Hong's eyes were red as he roared angrily to the people below him, "You come against me in training! You come against me in assessment! Now that it's my turn to sacrifice heroically, you still want to compete with me!
How could I train such a rebellious soldier like you? ! !
grass!!!"
Instructor Hong’s voice was so loud that it seemed to echo in this narrow passage, like thunder.
But Shen Qingzhu could no longer hear.
Endless flames licked his body, everything around him seemed to have fallen into deathly silence, only pain burned his body.
It seems like someone is scolding me... Damn, who is so brave
When I get the chance, I will beat you up severely.
But... there is a high probability that there will be no such opportunity.
[Believers] didn't perish, and I didn't become a truly powerful person. What is the Night Watch team in Shangjing City like? Is it ridiculously strong? Speaking of which... I didn't catch up with the Night Watch's oath ceremony.
Haha, after working so hard for so long, it turns out I’m not even a night watchman.
These regrets are just regrets...
Damn it, at least I should die honorably as a night watchman...
I don’t know if the oath I made is useful.
…
In the raging fire, Shen Qingzhu, whose body was charred black, suddenly opened his eyes and smiled.
I almost forgot, I am Shen Qingzhu, what a bullshit rule... I say it works, so it works!
In the endless red flames, he opened his dark, cracked lips and growled silently:
"I, Shen Qingzhu, swear an oath under the red flag of Great Xia..."
He tightly grasped the emblem in his hand. Even though his palm had been mostly carbonized, he had no intention of letting go. The flames licked the shining lines of words on the back of the emblem, making it sparkle.
"When the dark night finally comes..."
…
The flames were still spreading in the passage.
Even though Ma Yitian was dead, the raging flames were still rushing towards the narrow passage due to inertia. Instructor Hong loosened his hands which were covered with bloody nail marks, gritted his teeth, picked up the unconscious Baili Pangpang, and jumped upwards.
…
"I will stand before tens of thousands of people..."
…
Instructor Hong lifted his sore legs again and again, jumping back and forth on the rock walls on both sides. The raging flames beneath him were moving at an extremely fast speed, and even though he had tried his best, the gap between the two was still narrowing.
His body was shaking, but he absolutely could not stop.
He had already seen one of his soldiers die in front of him, and the other one... must not die again!
…
"Draw your sword across the abyss..."
…
The raging flames were only one meter away from Instructor Hong's figure, and the leaping flames almost touched the bodies of the two men. Instructor Hong did not lower his head, but stared at the hole above his head, with veins bulging all over his body!
…
Falling into the flames of the cave.
Shen Qingzhu, who was no longer in human form, slowly closed his eyes. The hand that was tightly holding the emblem completely lost consciousness and slowly loosened its grip...
"Bloodstained Sky!!"
Boom!!!
A sudden buzzing sound rang out throughout the underground world. At that moment, the air in the entire cave and passage was sucked out, and all the flames disappeared in an instant.
In this vacuum world, Shen Qingzhu's carbonized body fell heavily to the ground, and the rubble that collapsed due to melting fell all over the place...
boom!!
Amid the buzzing sound, the entire underground cave was completely buried, and everything returned to dead silence...
In the dark and silent world,
There was only a thin piece of jade, gleaming with light.
