Trials of the Abyss

Chapter 67: The scum of the spiritual world

Views:

The Bagua City of eternal daylight.

On a wide street leading to the city center, Jian Yaoyang appeared like a ghost, stepping on scattered starlight, going forward and returning.

"call!"

Lin Quanshan walked out of a stone building, stood in the middle of the street, and looked at Jian Yaoyang from a dozen feet away.

Neither of them spoke.

Jian Yaoyang gestured, pointing to the stone buildings on both sides of the street between them.

He used this to tell Lin Quanshan that he did not see the target when he rushed forward, which meant that the other party was in a stone building between them.

Lin Quanshan nodded in understanding.

Jian Yaoyang stopped at the corner of the street in front and signaled Lin Quanshan to notify the others to continue searching the buildings.

Lin Quanshan turned around and went to another pavilion.

Unable to be seen by Jian Yaoyang, on the top of a tower-like stone building, a window was pushed open from the inside.

Li Jie, who said goodbye to Pang Jian and others at the north gate, leaned against the window, sucked the green juice in the glass bottle with a reed, and watched the hunting operations of Jian Yaoyang and others with great interest.

"I don't know who will win."

He smiled brightly, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

He used his spiritual weapon to kill Xueyue and Lieyang Zong. As he continued to move forward, he also noticed that Jian Yaoyang and his seven companions were hiding in the dark.

Because the two men died so tragically and so quickly, the seven people who wanted to ambush him did not dare to show their whereabouts.

The reason why Li Jie didn't leave in a hurry was that he knew that Pang Jian and others were still at the north gate. He wanted to see what would happen when these two groups met, but he didn't expect that everything would be fine after a conversation.

Just when he was feeling bored and ready to leave, he noticed something was changing.

"Seven on one side, five on the other. Seven people have the advantage in numbers, and their realm is also higher."

Li Jie, who was drinking green juice, chuckled and analyzed: "It can't just depend on the number of people and realm. Among those five guys, there is a woman who is quite weird, with the aura of a strange soul in her body."

Jian Yaoyang and others were completely unaware of his existence.

Jian Yaoyang, who was standing at the front of the street, watched Lin Quanshan and others searching each stone building one by one, and gradually became annoyed.

There are many tall buildings on both sides of the street, some are one or two stories high, and some are three or four stories high. Searching one floor by one like this is extremely time-consuming, and he is worried that someone will arrive later.

After a moment's silence, Jian Yaoyang coughed lightly, tidied his appearance, and stood in the middle of the street in a gentle manner. Suddenly, he raised his voice and shouted, "Junior Sister Ning, are you nearby?"

As soon as he shouted, Lin Quanshan and others immediately realized that he was impatient, so they all stopped their actions.

Some people were huddled inside the stone building, while others stepped out of the building and appeared on the street.

"Here I am."

Suddenly, a clear and pleasant response came from a three-story stone building between Jian Yaoyang and Lin Quanshan: "Brother Jian, we found something, do you want to come and take a look?"

Jian Yaoyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "Okay, I was just about to talk to you about something."

Those members of the Galaxy Alliance who remained in the stone building immediately walked out quietly. Jian Yaoyang and Lin Quanshan gave each other a signal and walked towards the stone building where Luo Hongyan's voice came from.

The other six people quickly came closer.

With their goal in mind, they quickly stood in front of the three-story stone building, looked at the closed door and the plaque on the door - Anxin Inn.

Jian Yaoyang had done some research before and knew that most of the buildings on both sides of this street were shops, taverns, and inns.

There are many places like Anxin Inn.

"We were delayed for a while, and we thought Senior Brother Jian and the others had left first."

Luo Hongyan said softly in the room.

Jian Yaoyang did not reply immediately, but gestured to Lin Quanshan and others as if he was going to force his way in.

—He didn't intend to wait until he got into the house to start trouble.

He also signaled Lin Quanshan and the most radical Qiu Li to guard the windows on both sides.

Several people understood and took action.

"We were discussing some things, so we were delayed..."

Seeing that everyone was ready, Jian Yaoyang responded in a gentle tone.

But he only responded halfway, and his left hand, which was pressing on the door panel, suddenly shone with dazzling starlight, and a tremendous force was immediately poured into it.

"boom!"

The heavy stone door did not break into pieces, but was still pushed open by him.

The first thing he saw was a wooden table at the end of the dim room, on which were placed many glittering bottles and jars, a pile of crystal clear jade, and several old books.

Jian Yaoyang's breathing became slightly rapid.

Luo Hongyan, who looked panicked, stood beside the wooden table and said in shock: "Brother Jian, you..."

Jian Yaoyang stopped talking nonsense and rushed in, followed by a group of four people behind him.

"Bang!"

Jian Yaoyang, who had not yet fully adapted to the gloomy atmosphere of the room, suddenly saw a huge silver ball rolling on the stone floor, coming towards him with a heavy force.

“Shhh!”

Countless steel needles flew out from the silver sphere like spears and shot towards them.

Jian Yaoyang was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to move sideways, he suddenly discovered that both sides were blocked by tables and chairs.

He secretly said "bad".

Holding a slender spiritual sword, he hurriedly activated the spiritual techniques of the Galaxy Alliance, drawing a bright starlight in front of him to block the flying steel needles.

"There's an ambush!"

Only then did Jian Yaoyang have time to scream.

But before he turned around, he saw spears and cold swords suddenly flying out from the gaps on both sides of the table and chairs.

“Puff! Puff!”

When the two people behind him retreated in a hurry, they collided with the other two and were immediately pierced through the bodies by the cold spears and knives.

Just at this moment!

“Wow!”

A blinding light shone from the second floor, and a mirror suddenly shone brightly, shining on the faces of everyone who were about to get used to the darkness.

"Toxic powder!"

"mean!"

"Junior Sister Ning, we have no grudges against each other, why is it necessary to do this?"

Jian Yaoyang realized that he had been tricked and could not help but cry out in grief and anger.

"There's no need for any grudges. I just want to kill you."

As Luo Hongyan chuckled, she saw that in the narrow passage between the tables and chairs, four people who were stabbed and hacked by Pang Jian and Zhou Qingchen fell in a pool of blood one after another.

"Brother Jian!"

Lin Quanshan knew something was wrong and shouted from a window outside.

"puff!"

A sharp spear suddenly shot out from the window that could only be opened from the inside and pierced Lin Quanshan's neck directly.

Qiu Li, who was standing at the window on the other side, turned her head and saw a spear protruding from Lin Quanshan's neck.

She was so frightened that her soul left her body. She heard Jian Yaoyang's angry and sad voice asking for help. She didn't dare to think about anything else and turned around and ran out to the street.

Pang Jian, who assassinated Lin Quanshan, pulled back the dragon-patterned spear, pushed open the window and jumped out.

On the wide street, he exerted force with his feet, and spiritual power continuously flowed along the four meridians and into the soles of his feet.

"Bang!"

He stomped his foot on the ground, flew several feet into the air, and chased after Qiu Li like an eagle.

While running, Qiu Li turned around and saw Pang Jian with a stern look on his face, coming towards her with a spear in mid-air. She hurriedly took out an ebony shield to block it.

"boom!"

A violent explosion like a landslide broke out through the dragon-patterned spear, unreasonably shattering the iron-hard ebony shield.

Under this fierce attack, Qiu Li's ebony shield exploded, and the dragon-patterned spear pierced her heart and killed her.

“Plop!”

Qiu Li fell to the ground with her back to the sky, with a dragon-patterned spear stuck in her chest. Before she died, she secretly regretted having the murderous intention and killing her fellow disciples.

It's too late.

Pang Jian, who was trying to kill Qiu Li, drew out his dragon-patterned spear without hesitation, his cold eyes fixed on the tower-shaped stone building in front of him.

Just now when he was high in the sky, he noticed that Li Jie, who had left earlier, was looking at him leisurely in the stone building.

“Ahem!”

Li Jie, who was choked by the green juice, saw Pang Jian preparing to kill him, and hurriedly explained: "I am not familiar with them, and we are not in the same group, please don't misunderstand."

He never expected that Jian Yaoyang and others, who had the advantage in numbers and strength, would actually be defeated.

Moreover, it collapsed almost in an instant, so fast that he had no time to react at all.

"Don't look for me aggressively, because you can't catch up with me. Don't waste your time!"

Seeing that Pang Jian was really chasing after him, Li Jie hurriedly picked up the glass bottle, hung a reed in his mouth, and began to gallop wildly on the tops of the stone buildings. He disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He was incredibly fast.

Seeing that it was impossible to catch him, Pang Jian had no choice but to give up. He didn't even look at Qiu Li's body, and immediately rushed towards Anxin Inn where everyone had set up an ambush.

When he flew out of the window, Jian Yaoyang was the only one left alive, and he was poisoned. He felt that Jian Yaoyang would not survive.

But just in case, he still planned to turn back and make sure that all the enemies were eliminated.

When he returned to the door of Anxin Inn, he immediately saw corpses all over the floor, including Jian Yaoyang.

Zhou Qingchen, holding a long cold iron knife, was leaning against the door, staring at a pile of corpses in a daze.

Only when he saw Pang Jian returning with a blood-stained spear did he come to his senses and his expression became a little strange.

"It's too easy. This can't even be called a battle. It's simply a one-sided massacre. In the future, should I change my mindset and not have so many concerns?"

Thinking back to the battle just now, Zhou Qingchen muttered to himself and gradually fell into deep thought.

Judging from his and Han Duping's usual style, if this raid is left to him to plan, it will definitely be a fierce battle.

He had to take out all the rare treasures hidden in the bottom of the box before he could be sure of killing Jian Yaoyang and others. He could not guarantee that the people on his side would not be seriously injured or killed.

However.

After Pang Jian's planning and arrangements, their action of hunting down Jian Yaoyang and others went so smoothly that it even made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Without any effort, all seven people were killed. Not only were none of them injured, but their spiritual energy also remained abundant.

"Fortunately, you are one of us."

Zhou Qingchen finally recovered and took out a porcelain jar of wine. He raised his head and drank a few mouthfuls before saying, "Dong Tianze was only stabbed by you and left with a few bloody holes. He was lucky to be able to leave alive."

Han Duping, who was unharmed but stained with other people's blood, also appeared at the door.

"Where are the two people outside?" he asked curiously.

"Killed by Pang Jian." Zhou Qingchen replied.

Han Duping glanced at Pang Jian and said indignantly, "Pang boy, don't you feel ashamed to harm others with such vicious and cruel means?"

Pang Jian was stunned.

When hunting in the Silent Mountains and encountering ferocious beasts, one would naturally use every possible means.

What is there to be ashamed of as long as you can survive and hunt wild animals

Zhou Qingchen was stunned for a moment, then laughed and scolded: "Old Han, don't give me that, I see you want to remember it."

"Don't have the intention to harm others, but be on guard against others. I'll make a note of this now!"

Han Duping took out a small notebook, dipped the brush in the blood on the ground, and started writing on it.

Zhou Qingchen squinted his eyes and looked carefully. He vaguely saw the words "Use the dim environment to create a dazzling light, and then add poison powder" and so on.

Han Duping had a serious look on his face, but he cursed: "I'm afraid that in the future, I'll run into a cultivator like Pang who doesn't follow the rules. I can't let him get into trouble by accident."
