Thousand miles of clouds and marshes.
The sky was dark and gloomy.
When passing by the low hill where Luo Hongyan was tempering her body, Pang Jian hesitated for a moment and did not go in to say hello.
He continued to move towards the Dark Ghost's base.
Recently, he always thought about the incredible events he experienced in the fifth realm, and often pondered the wonders of the bronze medal.
At present, he knew of three miraculous uses of the bronze medal.
The first wonder is that as long as he wears the bronze medal, he can resist some spiritual and soul shocks.
He used the bronze plate to resist Luo Hongyan's soul-capturing magic sound and the soul formation in the Tianling Tower.
But during the battle with Yuan Lengshan in Bagua City, the magic spell cast by Yuan Lengshan still made him fall into a mental illusion.
This made him realize that the bronze medal was not omnipotent in this regard.
The second strange thing.
Some unknown method was used by the bronze plate to make the dark giant anaconda, honeycomb, vine tree and black tortoise-like strange objects reappear.
On the way to Shattered Earth, he heard Luo Hongyan say that Tianfeng had the power of Nirvana and regeneration, and also said that when Tianfeng fell for the last time, even its ability of Nirvana and regeneration was suppressed.
He suspected that the phoenix marrow absorbed by the bronze plate still possessed the power of nirvana and regeneration, and it was the combination of the phoenix marrow and the bronze plate that resurrected the four rare objects.
The vine tree was eaten by a phoenix bone, and the phoenix marrow it turned into was absorbed by him. The same happened to the dark giant anaconda.
Although Ouyang Duanhai obtained the phoenix marrow created by the honeycomb, in the end the blood-colored phoenix was also absorbed by him with the bronze medal.
The phoenix marrow obtained by eating the black turtle was obtained by Dong Tianze, but he had absorbed the black turtle's essence and blood with a bronze plate at the bottom of the pit.
The existence of the black turtle's essence and blood, combined with the power of the phoenix marrow in the bronze plate, created a brand new black turtle.
The third is strange.
After absorbing the mirror tunnel of Wulan Lake, he was able to pass through the bronze plate and reach the strange object bred by the bronze plate.
When he thought that with the help of the bronze plate, he could directly descend to the fifth realm, he felt that this thing was extremely magical.
"Strangely, I reached the fifth realm completely without suffering any great mental loss."
Recalling his return from the fifth realm, he felt that there seemed to be only great pain in his body, but no mental loss. He found it a bit strange.
Thinking of this, he tried again on his way to the Dark Ghost's base to sense the dark anaconda.
Closing his eyes, keeping his mind clear and eliminating all distracting thoughts, two different perspectives emerged in his mind.
The first view showed many ferocious beasts from the fifth realm chasing the dark anaconda.
The newly born dark anaconda is now forced to hide from place to place and struggle to survive.
Pang Jian felt guilty and was too embarrassed to continue reading, so he quickly cut off the connection.
However, he still felt a considerable loss of mental and physical strength, and had a strong sense of fatigue.
After calming himself, he tried to establish a connection with the sapling and observe the surroundings from the sapling's perspective.
After the induction was cut off, he did not feel any discomfort and his spirits remained good.
"It's the distance..."
Pang Jian understood.
Because the Dark Anaconda was in the fifth realm, a whole world away from him, he had to rely on the Dark Anaconda's spying to establish his perception, which would drastically deplete his mental and spiritual energy.
The sapling was in the fourth realm, and in Yunze, close enough to him so that it would cause minimal damage to his mind.
After figuring this out, he would often establish communication with the sapling and no longer spy on the fifth realm through the dark anaconda.
This day.
When he and the sapling established a connection again, he saw an "unstable ferry" coming from the blood moon suddenly appear in the sky.
He also saw several Blood Moon practitioners flying out from the huge sailboat, and they captured several higher-level ferocious beasts nearby as if they had accurately locked onto their targets.
A level three ice-armored beast, another black and white king python, and a huge lizard were all captured alive and taken onto the boat.
After that, the "Wuding Ferry" continued to start.
"These people from Blood Moon suddenly descended upon the Fate of Heaven and Earth. I don't know what they are up to."
Pang Jian was confused.
After half a day, he finally arrived at the stronghold where many independent cultivators gathered, and immediately went to find the dark-skinned Ling Qing.
"The new Hall Master Meng is here. I'll take you to see her!"
Seeing that Pang Jian finally showed up, Ling Qing took him to the neatest and most spacious wooden house in the entire stronghold without saying a word.
After asking for instructions outside the door, he brought Pang Jian in and said, "Master Meng, he is Hong Tai's nephew, Hong Jian."
Meng Qiulan nodded indifferently and waved her hand, saying, "Well, you go out first and keep an eye on me outside."
Ling Qingju followed and left the wooden house.
As soon as he left, Meng Qiulan was in no hurry to speak. She squinted her eyes and looked at Pang Jian.
Pang Jian also looked at the old woman with crutches and felt that there was nothing special about her. However, the beautiful sisters, one fat and one thin, standing behind the old woman made Pang Jian take a few more glances.
The two women have different body shapes, one is plump and the other is thin.
But they look very similar. Even if they are not twins, they are sisters of similar age.
"Hong Jian, your uncle Hong Tai and I are old acquaintances, but I've never heard him mention you before."
Seeing Pang Jian staring at the pair of sisters behind him, Meng Qiulan was not angry, as if she had long been accustomed to this. She said, "Fan Liang did say that Hongtai mentioned you to them and that he intended for you to join the Dark Ghosts."
"Xuanyou Continent?"
"Someone born in the upper realm?"
A pair of sisters named Bai Wei and Bai Zhi stood in awe.
Meng Qiulan was also a little surprised and said, "I see."
She knew that Hong Tai was a native of the upper world, but was expelled by the Blood Moon because of an incident, and then joined the Dark Ghosts to hang out in the lower world.
Seeing that she didn't ask any more questions, Pang Jian didn't say anything else, so as not to reveal his flaws by saying too much.
After Luo Hongyan refined Hong Tai into a "spiritual evil", while searching for information about the dark ghost, he also found out Hong Tai's origins.
Hong Tai did have a nephew, who was indeed born in the Xuanyou Continent of the Third Realm. However, that nephew's talent for cultivation was extremely poor, and he was not qualified enough to practice in a large sect in the Third Realm.
Hong Tai himself was expelled by Blood Moon because he killed his fellow disciples during an exploration of a forbidden area.
He was expelled from the Blood Moon, and since his nephew had limited talent, there was no way he could get him to the Blood Moon. So he had no choice but to bring him in to the Dark Ghost.
later.
Meng Qiulan asked some questions related to Hongtai, such as why Hongtai was expelled and how to tame the "black and white king python".
These are secrets to outsiders. Even many people within the Dark Ghost are not clear about what Hong Tai did during the Blood Moon.
Pang Jian answered them one by one.
"Well, you should be someone close to Hongtai, otherwise you wouldn't know all this. Your identity is fine."
Meng Qiulan nodded and was about to ask about Pang Jian’s cultivation level and what he was good at.
"cough!"
Ling Qing, who was on guard outside, coughed lightly.
Meng Qiulan stopped talking and waited for Ling Qing to speak.
"Master, a Blood Moon's 'Unfixed Ferry' is approaching, so close that I can see it with my naked eyes."
Ling Qing whispered.
Meng Qiulan's face changed slightly, Bai Wei's face turned pale, and the thin Bai Zhi's face was full of surprise.
"Master, you are not here to look for us, are you?"
Bai Wei, who had a voluptuous figure, trembled slightly, and her plump upper body also trembled slightly.
She said in fear, "We just arrived at Tianyun, won't people know about it?"
"Blood Moon will not mobilize a large army for us!" Meng Qiulan glared at her and said angrily:
"Use your brain! We, the Dark Ghosts, only operate in the Fourth Realm. We don't even dare to confront the Seven Great Families head-on. How could Blood Moon specially send out a 'Wu Ding Ferry' just for us?"
The thin sister Bai Zhi seemed very calm and also advised: "Sister, in the eyes of the Blood Moon, we are just a group of insignificant little mice. You don't have to panic at all."
"Ling Qing, you are the person in charge here. If the 'Wuding Ferry' stops and the people from Blood Moon come down, they will definitely question you. You'd better be careful." Meng Qiulan warned in a deep voice.
"I understand!"
Ling Qing answered softly from outside.
"The ship's banner has the Blood Moon's Branded Eye, which can detect those with strong Qi and blood."
Meng Qiulan calmly took out a yellow pill from her storage bag and swallowed it, saying, "I am in the Marrow Cleansing Realm. In order to avoid being sensed by the Eye of Branding, it would be better for me to take a pill that suppresses my Qi and blood."
"The Eye of Brand can explore those with strong Qi and blood..."
Pang Jian chewed on the meaning of Meng Qiulan's words, thinking of the past when the "Eye of Brand" had been particularly fond of him, so he coughed lightly and suddenly said, "Master Meng, please give me one of those pills as well, so that I can suppress my blood and qi as well."
"You don't need to."
Meng Qiulan shook her head and frowned, saying, "You have reached the Tongmai realm at such a young age. You do have some talent, worthy of being born in the upper realm. But the Eye of Brand cannot distinguish your talent. It can only distinguish who is in the Xisui realm. The Tongmai realm does not temper the flesh, blood, tendons and bones, so it is not within its sensing range."
Pang Jian said softly: "Not long ago, I broke through."
Bai Wei and Bai Zhi's eyes suddenly lit up and they looked at him in disbelief.
Meng Qiulan took a deep breath and calmed herself down before pretending to be calm and asking, "When did it happen?"
"After returning from Yunze Town, I reported to Ling Qing and went to Yunze for marrow cleansing. My uncle left me some spiritual materials for marrow cleansing, and I was also quite lucky..."
Pang Jian explained.
"Hongtai does have a good nephew."
Meng Qiulan sighed, handed a waxy yellow pill to Pang Jian, then turned around and glared at Bai Wei and Bai Zhi fiercely, saying in a low voice: "Two useless pieces of trash!"
The sisters looked at Pang Jian with bitter faces, then lowered their heads and remained silent.
"If you two still cannot open up twelve meridians within half a year and cannot successfully advance to the second level of Tongmai Realm, I will send you both away!"
Meng Qiulan threatened gloomily.
"No, Master!"
"We will definitely do our best to break through!"
The two women begged desperately, but it seemed that they did not have enough confidence.
