Trials of the Abyss

Chapter 499: Recruiting soldiers and buying horses

Views:

The Yinque broken land is shaped like a crescent moon with a missing corner, and its area is not very large.

Pang Jian released his spiritual sense, and the entire broken land was in sight. He could hear the conversations of the people below and see anyone he wanted to see.

—Except Dong Tianze.

In the damp valley, Dong Tianze's aura was hazy, and he concealed himself with a faint blood light and soul energy, making it impossible to see clearly at a glance.

But it was obvious that the moment he appeared above the broken land, Dong Tianze became alert and knew that it was him who was looking for him.

"You still don't want to see me?"

Thinking of this, Pang Jian's eyebrows twitched, and he gathered his voice into a line and transmitted it to a few familiar people.

Lei Kun and Han Ting both showed joy on their faces and hurriedly left the place where the Yinling Temple believers gathered.

"I'm Pang Jian."

Pang Jian landed in a dense forest in Broken Land, put on his blue clothes again, and hung a sword order on his waist.

He looked at a Dongxuan realm cultivator from Hongshan and asked curiously, "Why haven't you been taken to Qitian Continent?"

This mountain forest, covering an area of dozens of miles, is occupied by practitioners from Hongshan, and there are only a few hundred people in it.

Most of their cultivation realms are at Tongmai, Xisui, and Xiantian, and there are only a few people at Dongxuan realm.

Moreover, they are all in the early stage of Dongxuan Realm and should have just broken through not long ago.

"Pang Jian! Pang Jian from the Sword Tower!"

Shao Yang was very excited.

He bowed first, then said, "Back then, the ships that were received by the Qitian Continent were not only the sword boats of the Sword Tower, but also the ships of the various sects and kingdoms of the First Realm."

“Ahem.”

Shao Yang lowered his head and coughed a few times, then explained: "At that time, there was no news from the owner of the building, and the Sword Building was temporarily controlled by the Great Elder Jiang Ran. The people on the Great Elder's side... knew the relationship between Hongshan and the Sword Building, but they were unwilling to arrange for all Hongshan members to enter the Qitian Continent."

“Jiang Li, some people are lucky enough to take the sword boat directly to Qitian Continent, but we are not so lucky.”

He knew that Zhou Qingchen, Jiang Li, Han Duping and others had close relationships with Pang Jian. In addition, Zhou Qingchen had also stayed there for a period of time not long ago, so he deliberately mentioned people that Pang Jian was familiar with.

"Among us, some are descendants of families that once depended on Hongshan, and some are family members of Hongshan sect members. Not all of them are descendants of Hongshan."

He explained Pang Jian's doubts in detail and asked hopefully, "I heard that the Great Elder Jiang Ran and the owner of the building have reconciled? So, are you here to take us to Qitian Continent?"

Without waiting for Pang Jian to answer, Shao Yang continued, "The nearby broken land is in chaos. No one wants to die, but they can't enter the First Realm to make a living."

"When the alien races come to attack, they will definitely start from the Broken Earth, and finally attack Qi Tian and the Demon Abyss Continent."

"So, since we can't go to heaven, it would be good to survive on Qitian Continent for a while longer."

The five Dongxuan realm cultivators who had recently broken through were also scattered around Pang Jian like Shao Yang, all looking at him eagerly, eager to be taken to the Qi Tian Continent.

Among them, the youngest is over 40 years old, and the oldest is over 100 years old.

Shao Yang, who was speaking, was the youngest one. He was in his forties and had only reached the Dongxuan realm. His aptitude was really mediocre and he was destined not to achieve much in his cultivation.

"Pang Jian!"

Lei Kun, who came following the news, laughed heartily from a distance: "You stayed in Xuanyou Continent for too short a time. When I, Old Lei, heard about you and was about to go meet you, you hurried to Holy Spirit Continent. Pang Jian, Old Lei really wants to thank you, and also thank you Jianlou!"

"You're welcome. I promised you about your son a long time ago." A smile appeared on Pang Jian's lips. He couldn't help but think of the time when he and he had a great time eating and drinking on the Yunfan when they left the Yunlei Forbidden Land.

"Sister-in-law, and..." Pang Jian felt guilty and said, "I didn't take good care of everyone."

"They are not that important to me." Lei Kun waved his hands and said nonchalantly, "I have many women, but I only have one son! They are just women. What's so important about them? I have never lacked any!"

A murderous look from the side suddenly made him feel cold in his heart.

"Han Ting, hehe, I was just talking casually." Lei Kun shrank his head and laughed dryly.

Han Ting, who had an extremely hot body, didn't bother to pay attention to him. She took a deep breath and said with complex eyes: "Pang Jian, long time no see."

"It's been a long time since we last met." Pang Jian nodded slightly, his eyebrows moved, and he asked, "Where's Gao Yuan?"

"He died in Xuanyou Continent." Han Ting's beautiful face was filled with sadness as she said calmly, "Many of our group of independent cultivators died. He, Lian Feng, and many others who were at a higher level. We desperately fought with alien races, hunted beasts everywhere to accumulate contribution points, hoping to exchange them for rare spiritual techniques and magic weapons."

"I also want to exchange for the qualification to survive in the first realm."

She laughed at herself, took out her Sky Eye, and said, "My contribution points are only enough for me to exchange for pills and artifacts. To go to any continent in the First Realm, the contribution points required are at least 5,000. And I only have 300 contribution points in my Sky Eye at the moment."

"Old Lei, I still have 700 points left, which is not enough to enter the First Realm." Lei Kun interrupted and said with a grin, "I exchanged for a spiritual treasure with thunder attributes, and almost used up all my contribution points."

"Pang Jian, I want to go to Qitian Continent. Can you talk to Jianlou?"

Those Hongshan disciples who were not qualified to participate in the battle in the lower realm seemed a little envious when they saw the two men take out their heavenly eyes.

"I have another place where you can settle down. You might as well consider it." Pang Jian pondered and said, "The spiritual energy there is richer than here. In the future... there is hope to ascend to the first realm."

"Ascend to the first realm?!"

Everyone screamed in surprise.

"Lei Kun, go to Yougu and tell Dong Tianze that I am willing to bring all the people from Yinling Temple into the Rockshattered Land. Ask him what he thinks." Pang Jian said.

"Given your relationship, do you need me to pass messages between you?" Lei Kun looked puzzled.

"need."

With Lei Kun's cultivation level at the Concentrated Mind Realm, a round trip would only take him half a minute.

After he came back, he said, "Dong Tianze said that you can take all the people from Yinling Temple with you. He himself doesn't want to go back to the Rock Broken Land for the time being."

"Well, let's leave it at that for now."

When Pang Jian was determined to let go of Panshi Shattered Earth, he secretly communicated with his master Li Zhaotian.

When Li Zhaotian learned about the area of the broken land, its true situation, the black tortoise inside, the level nine ice-armored eel dragon, and the numerous members of the Ice Clan.

Li Zhaotian was surprised, but he immediately took it seriously and immediately sent a message using his sword.

Yuanji was shattered.

Mu Aichuan put down the sword order, came to the location of the space teleportation array, and began to dismantle the array without saying a word.

"Elder Mu, what do you mean?"

A great cultivator of the Silent Realm who had been stationed here for a long time flew out from the large sword boat in shock and shouted, "Does the headquarters not want this Yuanji broken land?"

"The Dragon Cave of the Holy Spirit Continent has stated that they will part ways with the human race. There is no need for us to stay in Yuanji Fragmented Land." Mu Aichuan said as he dismantled the space teleportation array: "Later, all the sword boats parked here will be launched. We will abandon Yuanji Fragmented Land and no longer have any contact with the demons of the Holy Spirit Continent."

"Going back to headquarters?"

"No, the host has arranged another place for us to stay in from now on."

"where?"

“A broken place called the Rock.”

Qi Tian Continent.

Outside Baiyun City, in a town called Tianxin Town.

Qi Qingsong and Zhuang Yuyan went to the Zhou family residence in Tianxin Town and found Zhou Qingchen, who had been addicted to alcohol recently, and Jiang Li, who took care of him every day.

"How did he become like this?"

Qi Qingsong raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Qingchen, who was drunk.

The beard on Zhou Qingchen's face was so dense that you couldn't tell his original appearance. It looked like he hadn't shaved for a month or two.

"Han Duping died, and he is like this?" Qi Qingsong snorted and said coldly: "Jiang Yang, Duan Jing, Xu Xuanlun, Tang Can, Zeng Yulan, Song Zihe! These inner disciples of my Sword Tower, my close friends, died in battle one after another in front of me. Should I commit suicide on the spot!"

Zhou Qingchen shook his head and drank, saying, "It's not just Han Duping."

"Jiang Li, what's going on?" Qi Qingsong frowned.

Jiang Li, who had always been a little afraid of him, said timidly: "Your Sword Tower, as well as Tianshuize and Tianmuya, have been quietly moving important disciples below the Condensation Realm to the First Realm."

“But in Tianxin Town, no one paid any attention to the Zhou family members and the disciples of Hongshan who lived there.”

"There are several thousand people here, most of them are at the Tongmai, Xisui and Xiantian realms, and some are mortals who have not yet embarked on the path of cultivation."

"As long as the filthy alien power surges up and spreads across the Qitian Continent, how can they survive?"

"Junior Brother Zhou, because he sees no hope in this matter and feels powerless, he drinks all day to drown his sorrows."

Jiang Li explained.

Zhuang Yuyan sighed lightly and said bitterly, "We in the Sword Tower don't have a piece of land in the First Realm. You all know that the owner of the tower... failed to ascend to the True God. In order to continue the inheritance of the Sword Tower, it cost a lot to send disciples of lower realms to the top."

She did not hide anything, but told the truth: "For Hongshan, for the Zhou family, and for more people, Jianlou really does not have the ability."

"but… "

A smile escaped from the corners of her plump lips: "The owner of the building sent a message saying that it was Pang Jian's intention. He asked us to come and take Zhou Qingchen and Zhou Qingchen's people to another place to survive."

"That place seems to be called the Rocky Broken Land."

After saying this, she looked at Zhou Qingchen quietly.

When the drunk Zhou Qingchen heard the words "rock shattered earth", he immediately used his strength to get rid of the drunkenness.

He said softly, "I will arrange for the clansmen and the Red Mountain disciples to go to the Rock Shattered Land! Qi Qingsong, get me some cloud sails and other flying objects. Will that be too much for you?"

Qi Qingsong frowned and snorted, "This is very embarrassing!"

"Aren't you Liu Junhong's apprentice? I'm not asking you for the sword boat, but you're still making excuses!" Zhou Qingchen cursed.

"Why do we need to use the sword boat when we can use the space teleportation array?" Qi Qingsong rolled his eyes and said, "We can get there in an instant, why do we have to travel thousands of miles?"

Zhou Qingchen was shocked: "There is a space teleportation array located on the rocky and broken ground now?"

"What do you think?"
