Just as Lin Ran was about to leave, the ground suddenly shook and he lost his balance and fell to the ground again.
At this moment, a wolf-like monster actually stuck directly to his face, and its sharp fangs kept drooling on him.
Fortunately, Lin Ran reacted quickly and used the Qiuyu Sword to jam the guy's fangs, otherwise he would have been bitten hard.
"Get the f*ck out of here!"
With spiritual power surging in his left hand, Lin Ran directly blasted the damn thing into a bloody mist. Although his face was covered with blood, when he wiped it casually with his sleeve, Lin Ran's vision was a little blurry. He saw something rushing out of the forest on his right. When Lin Ran wanted to see what it was, he felt a sense of danger surge in his heart. When he subconsciously wanted to escape, he didn't know when his legs were tightly entangled by the dark red mist tentacles under his feet. There seemed to be sharp thorns in the tentacles, which pierced into Lin Ran's legs, and severe pain surged to his nerves.
"what!"
Lin Ran couldn't help but roar. When he was about to swing his sword to cut off the tentacle, something appeared on his left. He saw a dazzling dark red light shooting towards him. From that light, he felt the taste of death and thought about using sword energy to build a defense.
Only then did he notice that he didn't have much spiritual power left. In addition, he had forgotten to take pills to replenish his energy during the battle. It could be said that he was now like a fish waiting to be slaughtered.
"Am I really going to die here?"
Lin Ran thought unwillingly, maybe this was another time he was so close to death, would anyone come to save him this time? Maybe his luck wouldn't be so good!
"Remember you promised me to do something before. I command you not to die. Can you do it?"
When Lin Ran's mind was already reminiscing about the past, a familiar voice appeared in his ears...
"Is that... Meng Qing?"
……
Chapter 150: Breaking the space barrier!
Fast forward in time, Shangguan Mengqing had already arrived near the ancient city wall, and just witnessed Lin Ran leaping high into the sky and beheading the Taishui Scale Dragon from mid-air.
Before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, she saw Lin Ran falling straight down from a great height. Her position was blocked by the woods and the monsters, so she couldn't see Lin Ran's figure. She couldn't help but panic, thinking about rushing over quickly, but at this moment the ground shook violently, and the giant rock monster had arrived here.
"shit!"
Shangguan Mengqing let out a low cry and increased the speed of her attack. Enduring the pain in her chest, she finally arrived at the open area with a raging fire in a very short time. When she was thinking about rescuing Lin Ran, she couldn't help but feel a sweetness in her throat, and the bright red blood turned into spots that dyed her veil red.
She held her chest tightly, as if only this could ease the pain that made it hard to breathe.
But at this time, the giant rock beast that arrived at the battlefield had already opened its huge mouth of the abyss. Dark red energy spots were slowly condensing. Sensing the dangerous aura above and the direction of Lin Ran, Shangguan Mengqing wanted to speak out to remind him, but his throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't make a sound.
Looking at the giant rock beast that was about to complete its power, Shangguan Mengqing gritted his teeth, took out a few small bottles, and without thinking, stuffed all the pills into his mouth, his cheeks bulging.
Then he cast a spell forcefully, rushing towards Lin Ran, pinching the seal in his hands, silently chanting in his heart: "Taixu Shangqing Jue - Break!"
Shangguan Mengqing's body suddenly glowed with a dazzling light blue light, and there were faint blurry and crooked characters floating on her body. The pupils of her star-like eyes turned light blue, and her light blue dress fluttered. Shangguan Mengqing, who was originally in a dishevel, now had an ethereal, mysterious and wonderful temperament.
"Moonlight Waterfall!"
She waved the Autumn Rain Sword in her hand casually, and the light green sword energy turned into a starry sky, forming a huge and beautiful starlight painting with rune-like words flowing on it. The next moment, the energy beam of the rock beast that had been accumulating energy for a long time slammed heavily on the green waterfall. The runes flowing on it actually glowed green, and actually refracted the dark red energy beam back to deal with the rock beast. The energy beam with a destructive breath hit the defenseless rock beast, and accompanied by a shocking roar, the huge rock body of the rock beast was smashed into pieces, and fell to the ground with a bang, temporarily losing its combat effectiveness.
Shangguan Mengqing did not have any reluctance and immediately turned back to Lin Ran. With the Qiuyu Sword in her hand emitting green light, the sharp sword energy easily cut off the dark red misty tentacles on Lin Ran's feet, and the tentacles turned into light spots and dissipated in the air.
Looking at the bloody holes on Lin Ran's feet, which were bleeding continuously, Shangguan Mengqing tore open the hem of her skirt, exposing her slender white calves, and used her spiritual power to inject into Lin Ran's body to seal those hideous blood holes, and then sealed the wounds with cloth strips, trying her best to prevent them from bleeding too quickly.
Shangguan Mengqing said those words because she was afraid that Lin Ran would faint.
.....
Lin Ran's eyes were stained with blood, and all he could see was a blur of blood red. Feeling Shangguan Mengqing's support, he laughed miserably and said, "This time... you saved me again. I am so embarrassed!"
"Shut up!"
Shangguan Mengqing pinched Lin Ran's mouth and forced him to open it, then threw the few pills in.
Lin Ran chewed the pill that he had stuffed into his mouth. The coolness of the medicine restored some vitality to his body. He said seriously, "Meng Qing, how much spiritual power do you have left?"
"I feel like even at full strength, we may not be able to break out!"
Shangguan Mengqing's face was extremely gloomy. She looked at the monsters that were surrounding her from all directions. They were so densely packed that there was not much space left. The only way to retreat was to the other side of the ancient city wall, but the space barrier there was no different from a dead end.
"The monsters are surrounding us, right?"
Although Lin Ran could hardly see, he could still hear the sound. It was hard not to hear the earth-shaking roar of the monster.
"Ok!"
Shangguan Mengqing responded, and rushed towards the ancient city wall with Lin Ran, who was having difficulty walking. After that, they could only pray that they could find a way to unlock the space barrier there.
Although the hope was slim, and could even be said to be her wishful thinking, at least the two of them could die more slowly there.
Taking Lin Ran, he rushed into the ancient city wall. After a long and winding corridor, Shangguan Mengqing took Lin Ran to a building on the rock wall. The building on the rock wall looked like a corridor that was cut off. There were hollow patterns on the ground, and the scene below could be seen through the hollow areas.
Shangguan Mengqing helped Lin Ran sit down against the rock wall and whispered, "Let me take a look at the ancient buildings nearby to see if there is any way to unlock the space barrier."
"Hey, give me...wait..."
Lin Ran grabbed Shangguan Mengqing's arm and wanted to say something but couldn't help coughing. His hands were all over his body.
He touched it, as if he wanted to take something.
"I'll give you what you need later!"
Shangguan Mengqing broke free from Lin Ran's hand and turned into a stream of light and left.
Lin Ran could only watch the blurry blood-red figure leave him. He was extremely anxious. He wanted to ask Shangguan Mengqing whether she had brought him to the innermost part of the ancient city wall. If so, he would give the bronze cube to Shangguan Mengqing and try to see if he could open the space barrier.
He wanted to try soul transmission, but he didn't expect that because he had spent too much time mobilizing soul power to draw on the energy of heaven and earth or performing sword moves during the battle, it was a blessing in disguise that he didn't faint, let alone transmit sound.
Shangguan Mengqing had looked at all the ancient buildings nearby, or the rock walls with pictures and words on them, but there was not much useful information. Instead, the overwhelming sounds of monsters were gradually approaching.
This made Shangguan Mengqing even more anxious. He could not help but suffer from the severe aftereffects of using secret techniques and sword moves that were far beyond his ability. Shangguan Mengqing felt dazed and almost fell to the ground.
"Am I really going to die here? Never mind... maybe this is how my life will end..."
Shangguan Mengqing gave up the search. She returned to the building where Lin Ran was placed and sat next to him. Looking at the conscious Lin Ran, there was a strange glow in her eyes. She said in a hoarse voice, "We are about to die. What else do you want? Let me see if I can fulfill it for you. I still owe you three conditions, which I cannot repay after I die."
Lin Ran wanted to curse back, but he no longer had the strength. He just took out the bronze cube from the space ring with great difficulty, and tremblingly placed it in Shangguan Mengqing's palm, and said breathlessly: "This... this is... a way to break the space... the space barrier... Go... Go!"
Shangguan Mengqing listened patiently to Lin Ran's words. She was stunned and looked down at the strange bronze cube in her hand that was emitting a faint dark blue light. She asked, "Can this break the space barrier?"
"Yes...yes, hurry up and fuck him!"
Lin Ran felt his eyelids becoming heavier and heavier. Even though he had taken an emergency medicine, his body felt like it was drained of energy. He felt empty and weak, and wanted to collapse.
From Shangguan Mengqing's perspective, there were already dark red spider-web-like lines on Lin Ran's neck, which was a symptom of the invasion of demonic energy.
"It's bad. We have to find an opportunity to help him get rid of the evil spirit in his body!" Shangguan Mengqing lifted Lin Ran's legs slightly and saw the wound inside that had turned black. She immediately realized the problem and thought she was too slow in handling it.
"Can this... really break the space barrier?"
Shangguan Mengqing looked at the bronze cube that was glowing with a light blue light. It seemed to be responding to her call. The light blue light on the bronze cube flickered slightly, which surprised Shangguan Mengqing.
Sensing the increasingly violent vibrations in the canyon, Shangguan Mengqing gritted his teeth, carried Lin Ran on his back, leaped down from the aerial buildings, and came to a place not far from the space barrier. He looked back and saw that more than a dozen monsters had already turned out from the bend ahead.
The fastest ones in the front had the strength of Lingdan Realm, and they rushed over madly with their fangs and claws bared. Shangguan Mengqing looked at the bronze cube in his hand, and hurriedly took a few steps to come to the space barrier, and touched the bronze cube in his hand to the space barrier, but no movement happened. This made Shangguan Mengqing's heart fall into the abyss all of a sudden, and a fear of death surged in his heart.
But at this moment, Lin Ran's voice rang in his ears: "Try... use your spiritual power. If it doesn't work... you will feel blood dripping..."
"Spiritual power?"
Shangguan Mengqing came back to his senses and poured the little spiritual power left in his body into the bronze cube. The deep blue light of the bronze cube slowly lit up, and the runes on the surface seemed to move. Shangguan Mengqing gritted his teeth when he realized that it was effective, and poured all the spiritual power in his body into the cube.
"Crack!"
A sound like a lock being opened suddenly sounded, and Shangguan Mengqing's pretty face was illuminated by the deep blue light, her pupils were full of surprise. In the soft deep blue light, the runes on the surface of the bronze cube all lit up and swam rapidly, and actually drilled straight into Shangguan Mengqing's brow, and a small ice-blue lotus-like mark appeared at the center of Shangguan Mengqing's brow, and the bronze cube was completely scrapped and fell to the ground, truly becoming a useless piece of scrap iron.
At the same time, the invisible space barrier in front of Shangguan Mengqing actually lit up with a dazzling deep blue light. A deep blue light spot carved intricate and delicate patterns on the barrier at an extremely fast speed, and an ancient breath from the primitive times blew towards him.
Shangguan Mengqing felt that the invisible space barrier in front of her seemed to have been unlocked. When she stretched out her hand to touch it, there was no obstacle. She took Lin Ran into the space that was blooming with deep blue light. Looking back, she saw that the monsters that had been chasing her all stopped not far from the space barrier, and there seemed to be fear and anxiety in their dark red eyes.
"We seem to be... safe... Lin Ran... you really succeeded!"
There was an excitement in Shangguan Mengqing's words that was not usual. She was eager to share the news with Lin Ran, but she didn't hear Lin Ran's reply.
When she carefully looked at the Phoenix Bracelet on her hand, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she knew the result. She could still feel Lin Ran's soul breath on it, but he was too weak and fell into a coma.
When she turned her head to look at Lin Ran's unconscious face, she couldn't help but gently kissed it with her slightly dry and pale lips, her eyes full of tenderness, and said: "I will save you, wait for me... okay?"
……
Chapter 151: Successor of the Mirror Moon Saint Emperor
When Shangguan Mengqing walked into the steps of the square, the space barrier behind him seemed to be sealed again. When Shangguan Mengqing looked back, he could no longer see anything. The monsters seemed to have turned into nothingness, leaving only an empty canyon intersection.
When I looked up at the moon in the sky, it was no longer the creepy bright red color, but a bright moon as big as a millstone. The cold light cast a dreamy veil over the slightly quiet square.
"The space here is actually separated from the outside..."
Shangguan Mengqing was surprised at the spatial means of the instigator, but thinking of Lin Ran's injuries, she quickly found a stone pillar in the square, carefully put Lin Ran down and leaned him against the pillar.
She took out a sharp knife from the space ring, cut open Lin Ran's trouser legs, untied the cloth belt she had just wrapped around him, and began to treat Lin Ran's wounds again. Even though she pressed acupoints on Lin Ran, the demonic energy in Lin Ran's body was still eroding at a relatively fast rate.
"That won't work, but now I..."
Shangguan Mengqing directly unbuttoned the clothes on Lin Ran's chest, and looked at the dense dark red lines gradually moving towards his heart. She couldn't help but feel a headache. She had no means to help Lin Ran now. All the pills were gone, and even her own condition was very bad.
But just when she was anxious and irritable, the refining mark on her forehead suddenly flashed a deep blue light, and a crisp voice sounded in Shangguan Mengqing's mind: "You can bring him to my side..."
"who is it!"
Shangguan Mengqing looked around hurriedly, but there was no one in the empty square, and it was still so quiet.
"You can call me Fanhua. You are now the successor of Saint Emperor Jingyue. If you can obtain Saint Emperor Jingyue's token and meet the conditions for activation, you have passed the first level."
The cold voice once again rang in Shangguan Mengqing's mind. These words were like a heavy hammer hitting Shangguan Mengqing's head. Even though she was always calm and rational, she didn't react for a moment.
"Jingyue... the inheritance of the Holy Emperor...? When did I become the inheritor?"
Shangguan Mengqing said to herself, is she just opening the space barrier to escape? And the Holy Emperor Jingyue was a famous super strong man in ancient times. It is recorded in the ancient books of the Sword Sect that the Holy Emperor Jingyue was one of the few top strong men who could fight with the Green Emperor, and was also the main force against the Void Evil Clan.
This turned out to be her secret realm inheritance. No wonder the level of this secret realm was so high. But what puzzled Shangguan Mengqing even more was why she became the inheritor?
"Is it that bronze cube? But that belongs to Lin Ran, not mine..." Shangguan Mengqing murmured in a low voice.
She probably knew that the problem should be with the bronze cube, but the bronze cube belonged to Lin Ran. She became the inheritor inexplicably. Isn't that a cuckoo taking over the magpie's nest?
Fanhua continued to reply: "The Lin Ran you mentioned, he has indeed held the token for many years, but he has already practiced the Qing Emperor's skills, and does not meet the standards of the successor, so the inheritance naturally passed to you. You should be a couple, right? You can explain it to him later, and I believe he will understand."
"We...are not a couple..."
Shangguan Mengqing shook her head and forced a smile, "You said you could save him, where are you? How can I find you?"
"Although I can save him, I still require you to solve a puzzle. Once you solve it, the road to heaven will appear!" Fanhua said calmly.
"What kind of riddle is this? It's not meant to be difficult, is it?"
Shangguan Mengqing glanced at Lin Ran anxiously. Given Lin Ran's current condition, he couldn't delay for too long. The evil spirit was still destroying Lin Ran's body. If it weren't for a strange power in Lin Ran's body resisting, anyone else would have been eroded by the evil spirit and defeated.
"No, it's just a small puzzle!" said Fanhua.
When the voice of Fanhua rang in Shangguan Mengqing's mind, the ground in the square suddenly lit up with a deep blue light, and a beam of light suddenly rushed into the sky. Then all the stone pillars in the square lit up, and all kinds of exquisite and intricate patterns and words gradually appeared on them.
These stone pillars moved slowly and got stuck in a strange position. A platform stretched out from the stone pillars, on which was a crystal clear mirror. In the direction of the waterfall, there was a complete female statue not far in front of the waterfall. Her hands were raised high, and a crystal clear mirror appeared in her hands. The moonlight was gathered in it, reflecting the bright moonlight onto the opposite rock wall.
A huge stone platform slowly rose in the center of the square. In the center of the platform was a female statue with a blurred face, wearing a long dress and holding a mirror in her hand.
The voice of Fanhua sounded again: "Refract the moonlight from the statue in front of the waterfall to the statue in the center of the square. The moonlight will just reflect back to the sky. You can only move the stone pillars in the square. Of course, the situation is special. I will allow you to cheat a little. I will turn a blind eye."
Shangguan Mengqing looked at the square that had suddenly changed. She didn't expect that there would be such a puzzle here. But what made her a little unresponsive was the sentence at the end, which allowed her to cheat a little. Then she could just put a few mirrors at the right angles and refract the moonlight directly onto the statue in the middle.
"Then shall I start?" Shangguan Mengqing asked.
"let's start!"
After hearing what Fanhua said, Shangguan Mengqing saw that there were no extra mirrors, so he ran to climb up the stone pillar, removed the mirror on the stone pillar, and found several angles, which just happened to refract the moonlight from the statue at the waterfall to the middle at a relatively strange angle.
It took about ten minutes in total, and quite a bit of time was spent removing the mirror. It was so short that Fanhua was a little silent. Although it is possible to cheat, this is a bit...
However, Fanhua sighed helplessly and said, "It's your fault. I will open the road to heaven for you. Bring him up to see me!"
As soon as the sound of Fanhua died down, Shangguan Mengqing saw a deep blue light oscillating like water in front of the statue in the center of the square. The soft deep blue light quickly condensed into a series of transparent deep blue steps, which stretched continuously and windingly into the sky.
When Shangguan Mengqing saw the road to heaven, he hurried back to carry Lin Ran on his back and set foot on the road to the sky...
This road to heaven would occasionally gust of strong wind. In Shangguan Mengqing's current state, she could only kneel down on her knees, relying on the weight of herself and Lin Ran to lean on the stairs to avoid being blown away by the strong wind. After the strong wind passed, she would get up with difficulty and continue to move forward.
It might be okay once or twice, but once it happened too many times, Shangguan Mengqing's knees, exposed by her torn skirt, had already been rubbed to the point of bleeding.
But the road to heaven seemed to have no end. Shangguan Mengqing could not see the end, but the wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the temperature was getting colder and colder. The height they were at was enough to pass through the clouds. Looking back, they could not even see the ground, but looking up, they still could not see the end, as if they were being played a trick.
He found the robe and put it on himself and Lin Ran. Just as he was about to continue climbing up, the pain in his chest surged to his nerves again. Shangguan Mengqing closed his eyes and knelt on the stairs. His white and slender hands grasped the steps tightly, and blue veins climbed up the surface of his skin.
It was so cold at high altitude, but Shangguan Mengqing's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. His face was as pale as white paper. He subconsciously stroked the space ring, but then he realized that he had run out of his elixir.
