It was evening and the sky was filled with sunset glow.
Openly or secretly, countless people were looking at the tall figure standing in the air above the lake, holding a sword.
The surroundings were quiet, but huge waves were surging in the hearts of countless people.
The Ghost Sacrifice Sect, Xing Heng who was in the Immortal Realm, was killed here by Pang Jian.
There is a huge gap between the two sides.
A new star in kendo is rising at this moment and will surely shine brightly across the world.
After Li Zhaotian, when the human race in Purgatory was in great danger, a sharper sword shone from the sword tower!
"Pang Jian!"
This name was screamed in their hearts.
They were silent, but their hearts were roaring.
The void behind Pang Jian and the dark blue devil sky made everyone feel depressed, but the secret devil realm hidden in the sky was so real.
At this moment, Pang Jian, who wielded the Source Demon Sword, looked more like a heretic than Dong Tianze.
However, many people knew that the Source Demon Sword was a killing sword forged by Mo Nan of the Demon Sword Sect, and they also knew that there was a terrifying demon soul hidden inside the sword.
For the sword wielder, if he can suppress the evil spirit within and use it for the right purpose, that would be the right thing to do.
On the contrary, it is evil and heresy.
After Pang Jian killed Xing Heng, even if some people suspected that he might be devoured by the Source Demon Sword and turned into a demon one day in the future, they did not dare to question it and would not speak out their inner thoughts.
He dared to kill Xing Heng and Pang Jian from the Guiji Sect, let alone them who are like duckweed
So the wandering cultivators were shocked and kept silent, wondering why Pang Jian had such a strong fighting ability and why he could cross the border and kill Xing Heng.
I was just wondering, what is the limit of Pang Jian’s future
…
"Immortal Realm."
Pang Jian smiled softly with the corners of his mouth pulled.
The "Heaven-Covering Demon Formation" spread out by the Source Demon, carrying with it the six secret realms of the Demon Realm, suddenly disappeared into the sword.
Six dark spots of light suddenly appeared on the sword body and then disappeared quietly.
All the lightning and thunder disappeared completely.
On the surface of the lake below, floating was the corpse of Xing Heng, whose forehead was pierced by the sword light.
The gray stone platform, the prisms, the dry bones and rotten wood, either crumbled into dust or fell into the lake.
After this battle, his reputation will surely rise to a new height.
All the true gods of Purgatory and all the most powerful sects in the First Realm will know that he has the power to cross borders and kill the enemies!
The true gods can naturally see his endless potential.
If he were allowed to break through to the immortal realm, if he were promoted to a true god, how much power could he, the world god of the new era, exert in the tense war between humans and alien races
The more powerful and outstanding he is, the more the true gods will rely on him!
Precisely because he understood this point, he was fearless and had to use the Immortal Realm of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect as a scapegoat when the morale of the Sword Tower was low.
…
Lake bottom.
"What will happen to the Guiji Sect if Xing Heng dies?"
When Dong Tianze thought about this, he suddenly began to worry about how Pang Jian would face the wrath of Guiji Zong next.
Will Jianlou also be implicated because of Pang Jian
After Li Zhaotian failed in his attempt to become a true god, what could Jian Lou do to make Gui Ji Zong give up
Since he thought of Pang Jian, the fact that Pang Jian had concealed the fact that Pang Lin was the inheritor of Tianfeng and the person he would protect in the future was no longer a grudge in his heart.
The resentment in his heart melted away like the heavy snow.
…
"call!"
A tall figure wrapped in a tiger-skin cloak came roaring from the direction of Hongdu City and landed above the lake in the blink of an eye.
"City Lord Shang Xiuchun!"
Many casual cultivators cried out in low voice.
"He should have come here earlier, not after Xing Heng's death."
"Who could have imagined that Xing Heng, who was in the Immortal Realm, would be defeated by Pang Jian? And who could have imagined that Pang Jian would dare to kill Xing Heng?"
"Xing Heng is dead, how will the Ghost Sacrifice Sect respond?"
"… "
Shang Xiuchun's arrival broke the tranquility in the north of the Broken Land, and the cultivators began to whisper to each other.
"My name is Shang Xiuchun, and I am the mayor of Hongdu City, Pang Jian..."
Shang Xiuchun's words were not organized properly, and he froze in the middle of his speech. After a pause, he said bitterly, "Why did you kill Xing Heng?"
Yes, why did you kill Xing Heng
Everyone thought so, but no one asked before.
No matter how you look at it, Pang Jian had no reason to kill Xing Heng, and there was absolutely no need for it.
If you want to save people and keep Dong Tianze safe, you just need to defeat Xing Heng. Why do you have to kill people
Why do we have to make enemies for Jianlou
They can't figure it out.
"Back then, when I was still wasting time in the Fourth Realm, I temporarily joined an organization called Dark Ghost. My original intention of joining this organization was to seek some cultivation resources."
Pang Jian held the sword order, looked at Shang Xiuchun, and suddenly started talking without any reason.
Dong Tianze in the lake below was stunned, wondering why he suddenly brought up this matter.
Qian Bo and Yang Ronghao had not yet recovered from Xing Heng's death. When they heard Pang Jian mention the "dark ghost", they looked up into the sky in confusion.
"The Dark Ghosts, the leader at that time was Dong Tianze, and it was his master who allowed him to temporarily control the Dark Ghosts."
"That is to say, we both belonged to the Dark Ghost organization for a period of time. The Dark Ghost was able to exist because the second elder of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect, Jiang Cen, practiced the Dark Ghost Dao Jue."
"So, we worked for the second elder of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect without realizing it. The late leader of the Yinling Temple, Han Zhiyuan, also established the Dark Ghost under the instruction of the second elder."
"The Dark Ghost has long ceased to exist, and Han Zhiyuan also died in the Xuanyou Continent. The only important members of this organization left are Dong Tianze and me."
After a pause, he looked at the Ghost Cloud Ship in the sky and said, "I don't know who wants to kill Dong Tianze, but I know that the secret technique that Dong Tianze practiced has always come from the Yinling Temple."
"Dong Tianze showed no signs of being infected by the alien god. Xing Heng wanted to kill him without any evidence. I think there is another reason."
His words were vaguely directed at the second elder of the Guiji Sect.
The implication is that Jiang Cen wanted to wipe out everything about An Gui.
Because before the filthy alien power surged up, the Dark Ghost had traded with the aliens of the fifth realm and exchanged supplies with them.
After learning from the message conveyed by Xu Wei that Jiang Cen was the mastermind behind the Dark Ghost, he now forced himself to give an explanation.
He knew that this explanation was a bit far-fetched and had too many flaws that could not stand up to scrutiny.
But he had to say it.
Putting it another way, the people from the Ghost Sacrifice Sect kept their eyes on Dong Tianze and refused to let him go because Dong Tianze was an outlier from the Blood Spirit Sect.
During this sensitive period when many evil demons appeared in the world, once Dong Tianze was defined as an evil demon, Guiji Zong could be said to have a legitimate reason.
Bringing Jiang Cen into the picture and using An Gui as an excuse can cover up this fact very well.
Before the alien races broke out of the fifth realm, there were also some large groups that secretly traded with the alien races.
The existence of the dark ghost and its actions, which occurred before the surge of the filthy alien power, were not actually considered serious faults for the true gods.
He just used this to clear Dong Tianze of the suspicion of being an evil spirit.
"These things..."
Shang Xiuchun smiled awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
Even if it was really Jiang Cen, the second elder of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect, who ordered Xing Heng to kill Dong Tianze and erase everything related to the Dark Ghost, what would that matter
Can he control Jiang Cen? Can he control Gui Ji Zong
"I shouldn't have come, I shouldn't have shown up, I should have continued to play dead!" Shang Xiuchun secretly complained in his heart, laughing dryly with an embarrassed look on his face, feeling that his existence was redundant.
Pang Jian didn't care about his embarrassment.
On the surface, he said those words to Shang Xiuchun, but actually he was speaking to those independent cultivators, to Qian Bo and Yang Ronghao.
He wanted to use those people's mouths to spread the news, making everyone think that he was angry and drew his sword because he was once a member of the Dark Ghost, and because the behavior of the Second Elder of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect was too despicable.
After letting everyone digest it, he looked through the lake and fell on Qian Bo and Yang Ronghao, saying, "You can go now. I know you are just following orders. It will not be difficult for you two to take Xing Heng's body and leave Hongdu Fragmented Land."
"Uh, ok, okay."
The two men stammered and trembled in fear as they reached the surface of the lake, carrying Xing Heng's body into the sky.
"Let's go."
Pang Jian waved his hand, landed on the shore of the lake, and waited for Dong Tianze to come up by himself.
Shang Xiuchun, the Lord of Hongdu City, hesitated for a moment, came to Pang Jian, and said, "While you were fighting Xing Heng, the space teleportation array suddenly collapsed."
Pang Jian frowned: "Do you know who did it?"
"I can't find out." Shang Xiuchun gritted his teeth and whispered, "The moment the space teleportation array was broken, I sent a message to Elder Xu Wei of your Sword Tower and told him that the teleportation array was damaged."
"That's thoughtful." Pang Jian nodded.
Only then did he hold the sword order and send a message to the Immortal Realm elders, informing them that Xing Heng was dead.
"Xing Heng is dead?"
"Did you kill him?"
"Isn't Xing Heng in the Immortal Realm? Did you really kill him?"
"We are on the sword boat and on our way here! We thought you would suffer a loss, and that Xing Heng would bully others in the future, and we were afraid that he would make things difficult for you. Who knew... you actually killed him!"
Among the sword light symbols, light spots representing Xu Wei, Liu Junhong, Guanghe, and Wang Ce kept flying out messages.
"Ghost Sacrifice Sect, Dong Tianze must be captured alive, not killed on the spot." Shang Xiuchun spoke again, whispering, "Very strange. With Xing Heng's Immortal Realm cultivation, if he was willing to take action earlier, Dong Tianze should have been captured and taken away long ago."
"The shattering of the space teleportation array and their treatment of Dong Tianze like a frog in boiling water make me think they have other plans."
Shang Xiuchun looked around suspiciously and said, "Perhaps someone wants to lure you and an elder from the Sword Tower to the Broken Land of Hongdu."
"Take care of yourself."
After saying this, Shang Xiuchun floated away.
The direction he flew was not towards Hongdu City, but outside the Hongdu Broken Land!
Judging from his posture, he probably sensed that things were not going well in Hongdu and simply abandoned this base.
