Purgatory

Chapter 13 The Bronze Door Opened for a Moment

Ning Yao turned her head back frequently, and was still paying attention to Pang Jian's movements when flying across the ravine, for fear that he would behave abnormally.

Pang Jian's body was like a rock, and he didn't move.

It wasn't until Ning Yao finally climbed the wooden ladder to the deck of the "Wuding Ferry" and fell into the cabin after a search, that Pang Jian dismounted and moved to the thick phoenix bone.

The dead bones left by the phoenix in the upper realm towered like a thick giant sword, piercing straight into the dark sky.

The so-called towering ancient trees nearby are far less tall than a dead bone of Tianfeng. The majestic and sacred aura revealed by this dead bone made Pang Jian amazed.

He paced around Tianfeng's remains.

Sometimes, he looked up at the end of the dry bone piercing the sky, and sometimes he looked at the part inserted into the earth, and the light of hope gradually appeared in his eyes.

Ning Yao is right, he is indeed not a simple boy, it is difficult for him to trust others, and he will not share everything with others.

He concealed something about Zhou Qingchen, and he didn't reveal what he saw through the "Eye of Branding", let alone Ning Yao?

Only he himself knew that as the bloodthirsty vines shrunk into the cracks in the ground, and the vibrations and roars slowly subsided, there was a cluster of mysterious shimmering lights wandering inside the huge withered bones that were not abnormal at all.

The mysterious shimmering light wandered for a while before it gradually faded away, and everything finally returned to its original state.

——This is the follow-up that he concealed.

He is willing to take the risk to revisit the old place, of course not out of good intentions, not to collect the relics of Luo Meng and others for Shangguanqin.

The reason why he came back was to see what the mysterious shimmer of light wandering in the phoenix bone was.

He proposed to go to "Wuding Ferry" to investigate, because he knew that Ning Yao didn't trust him, and he became wary of him everywhere, so he wanted to confront him.

—and it turns out he was right.

When he said he was going to the "uncertain ferry", Ning Yao really stopped him and insisted on letting him stay outside.

Ning Yao herself hurriedly went to explore, trying to break through the mysteries inside the sailboat alone.

This is exactly what Pang Jian wants.

"Calculate the time, it should appear soon."

Pang Jian stared at the tall and thick phoenix bones, and kept a certain distance. He didn't try to touch it with his hands like Zhou Qingchen, but was just waiting for the mysterious gleam to emerge.

After half a sound.

A cluster of hazy white shimmers, like liquid amber, really went deep into the interior of the earth from the phoenix bone, and slowly floated out.

The mysterious white light, like a cluster of wandering living creatures, flew upwards from the bottom of the huge dry bone.

Pang Jian stared at the cluster of mysterious shimmering lights without moving his eyes for a moment, for fear of missing any details.

In his mind, he also immediately thought of the scene of the divine bird assassinated by the divine bone that was as white as jade, and then looked at the shimmering light with similar luster, feeling nervous and pleasantly surprised.

Such a powerful green vulture died so cleanly when pierced by the Heavenly Phoenix Divine Bone. Does the shimmering light similar to the luster of the Divine Bone also contain the divine power that reaches heaven and earth?
Since I am so close, will I be affected and be wiped out like those two guards?

Uneasy Pang Jian held his breath and observed and felt carefully, but he didn't notice the terrible high temperature from the flickering twilight, nor did he see the picture of countless runes whistling like diamonds.

"No, this is definitely not a divine bone, Zhou Qingchen is right."

He gradually came to his senses, the hope and longing in his eyes gradually turned into deep disappointment.

This dead bone piercing into the ground was not the one he had seen before. It didn't have the kind of power that could penetrate the sky, only a little strangeness remained.

"Since it's not that..."

After confirming this point, Pang Jian finally became more courageous and dared to get very close to the withered bones.

"Well!"

Suddenly, from the depths of the cabin of the "Wuding Ferry", Ning Yao's exclamation came.

She also seemed to have discovered something, and shouted inside: "Pang Jian, is everything normal outside? Zhou Qingchen, and Shangguanqin, haven't you come here?"

"No, everything is normal." Pang Jian raised his voice and responded.

The mysterious shimmering light wandering around the thick and huge pillar-like phoenix bones seemed to be attracted by his voice, and quickly arrived at the dry bone area in front of Pang Jian, as if observing him silently.

"Boom! Boom boom!"

The slap-sized Baiying Shimmer suddenly had a sense of life, and kept hitting the bone wall, trying to rush out of the phoenix bone, trying to enter Pang Jian's body.

Pang Jian's face suddenly changed, and he stepped back immediately, fearing that the cluster of shimmering lights would succeed.

He didn't know what changes would happen to him after this cluster of white shimmering light entered his body.

However, he had personally seen what happened to the divine bird, the green eagle, and the two guards.

Returning from this adventure, he wanted to see if there was a mystery in the twilight, and to see if he could get a chance that was visible to the naked eye.

And absolutely not, when you don't know anything, take your own life as a gamble.

"Oh!"

Baiying Shimmer, who had repeatedly attacked several times, unexpectedly rushed away from the bone wall when Pang Jian retreated!
Pang Jian looked horrified, and when he wanted to take something to resist, he found that it was too late.

The gleam like liquid amber went straight to the heart of Pang Jian's chest, as if he wanted to get into it, but when he tore open the clothes on Pang Jian's chest, his fierce momentum was suddenly stopped!
When Pang Jian was trembling, the bronze door pendant on his chest, the bronze door that seemed to never be opened, opened a hair-thin crack.

"Whoosh!"

The liquid amber gleam that should have penetrated into Pang Jian's heart, dormant and metamorphosed inside, was sucked into the bronze door.

The twilight flashed away, and the gap in the bronze door was quickly closed, as if nothing had happened.

Also at this moment, in the depths of the cracks in the ground that Pang Jian couldn't see, an ancient vine tree buried suddenly changed.

The entire ancient vine tree had been stabbed to the ground by a phoenix bone long ago. There were countless vines swaying like strange trees, evil and strange.

After the twilight of amber was absorbed by the bronze door of Pang Jian's chest, all the frantically swaying bloodthirsty vines, as well as the ancient vine tree itself, withered and died in the blink of an eye, without a trace of magic at all.

It's just that Pang Jian didn't know it.

With a look of astonishment on his face, he also put on a posture of blocking with both hands, but found that there was an air blocked.

The mysterious amber gleam that flew out from the phoenix bone and disappeared in front of his chest.

The bone wall of the dry bone did not show any signs of cracking, it was still as smooth.

But for some reason, when Pang Jian looked at the dry bone again, he always felt that all the magic of the dry bone had disappeared, and there was no more mystery.

Looking left and right, Pang Jian only found that there was an imperceptible gap in the clothes on his chest.

It seemed that someone just tore open his robe with a thin sharp blade while he was in a daze.

Pang Jian looked strange, looking at the inexplicably extra gap in his clothes, wondering if it had something to do with the disappearing amber gleam.

"Pang Jian!"

While he was contemplating where the cluster of twilight lights went, Ning Yao excitedly rushed out of the "Undecided Ferry".

Ning Yao has a big cloth bag behind her, which seems to be full of things, making her body look a little bloated.

"I knew it, you saw the spiritual materials left by the blood moon practitioners in the Wuding ferry!"

She patted the cloth bag on her back with her backhand, and said happily, "Lingshi is a necessary material for all practitioners!"

"In our Fourth Realm, almost all spirit stones, like the spirit energy of heaven and earth, contain dross that are difficult to remove. In the cabin of the indeterminate ferry, the spirit stones carried by the blood moon powerhouse are not too high in grade. The difficulty is that they do not contain impurities!"

Ning Yao's face was full of surprises, she waved her hand vigorously, and shouted: "These are not available in our Fourth Realm."

With a huge cloth bag on her back, she jumped above the cracked ground, her speed was significantly slower than before, but she couldn't hide the excitement on her face.

"Congratulations."

Pang Jian congratulated nonchalantly, but he never expected that Ning Yao would actually gain something in the "Wuding Ferry".

"Put it in the net bag under the horse's belly first, it's too conspicuous when I carry it on my back."

After Ning Yao came over, she directly threw away all the worthless things that belonged to Liu Qi in the net bag under the horse's belly, and then put the Lingshi cloth bag she picked out into it, and then laughed coldly: "You are still playing tricks with me! ?”

Pang Jian said dumbly, "I really didn't know there was a blood moon spirit stone in it."

"Don't do this to me! You're carrying a bamboo basket just to hold those spirit stones, right?" Ning Yao asked with her mouth curled up.

Pang Jian shook his head and remained silent.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Since you have meritorious deeds outside, you can be regarded as a share of the witnesses. I will give you a few yuan for your cultivation." Ning Yao thought for a while, and took it out from the belly of the horse. A few pieces of jade, like broken bricks, were directly thrown into the bamboo basket behind Pang Jian.

"what is this?"

She froze suddenly.

Inside the bamboo basket, the gray-white stone that was flowing with the weak "power of mysterious yin" suddenly came into her eyes.

At this time, after Pang Jian's repeated absorption of the strange stone, the "mysterious yin power" inside it is difficult to distinguish the thin and thin gossamer without touching it with the palm of his hand.

When Ning Yao was sticking to it earlier, she just felt that the bamboo basket was a bit cold, so she didn't think much about it.

At this time, after a closer look, I realized something was wrong. He frowned and said, "It turned out to be a stone with a strong yin energy. This thing cannot be used by ordinary people, and only the evil spirits can absorb it. Pang Jian, where did you get it? Why did you get it?" Do you want to take it with you?"

"I picked it up in the pile of stones. It was freezing cold when I held it. I plan to go out later to see if I can sell it." Pang Jian replied.

"Don't tell me, this thing is still valuable in the market." Ning Yao did not doubt that he had him, and said, "It's just that there are very few people who need such unpopular spiritual materials, and the value is often not high. "

Ning Yao, who didn't pay much attention, threw a few spirit stones that she thought were "extraordinarily high value" into the bamboo basket on Pang Jian's back, and urged him to go back on horseback.

"Remember, don't tell me about harvesting these spirit stones." She ordered with a cold face.

"Oh."

Pang Jian agreed indifferently, and immediately rode his horse again, charging towards where Zhou Qingchen and the others were.
