Purgatory

Chapter 58 Pang Jian's Decision

The top floor of Tianling Pagoda.

Luo Hongyan stood by the window, angrily glaring at Pang Jian away, gradually disappearing into the darkness.

In that void of consciousness, the real Ning Yao was devastated, staring at Luo Hongyan fluttering in the corner of her skirt and said, "Are you going to humiliate me to death?"

The corner of Luo Hongyan's mouth twitched slightly, and said disdainfully: "You actually feel that this is a kind of humiliation to you when you come into contact with Pang Jian?"

"Is not it?"

Ning Yao said angrily.

Luo Hongyan snorted softly, gathered the power in the Xuanyin Stone again, and condensed it in the spirit body.

She said leisurely: "You have lost the feeling of your body, so when I made contact with his skin, you didn't feel anything. However, I still reserve the right to let you see through your eyes."

"Since you can see it, you should know that Pang Jian opened up four meridians in a row when he stepped into the meridians."

"Ning Yao, how many meridians did you open up when you entered the Meridian Realm?"

There was sarcasm in her eyes.

Ning Yao hesitated for a moment, then Fang said: "One has not been successfully developed."

"So, why do you think that I am humiliating you by getting close to Pang Jian in your body?"

In the nothingness, Luo Hongyan pulled strands of "Power of Mysterious Yin" with both hands, and hit him bluntly: "Now, do you still think that you who were born in the seven major families in this world will be more noble than Pang Jian? ?”

Ning Yao was taken aback.

"What a stupid woman. Judging from Pang Jian's cultivation talent, I can't find one in the third world."

With a cold face, Luo Hongyan shook her head, and sarcastically said: "Based on this alone, he is a few levels higher than your so-called Ning family background."

"You haven't figured it out yet, you, Ning Yao, are the toad, and Pang Jian is already the swan you need to look up to."

As soon as these words came out, Ning Yao seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, and her whole body was blindfolded.

"Think about what I said, and stop living in a dream."

……

Day two.

After the hangover Pang Jian woke up, he felt a little dizzy. He found him lying in the weeds on the island, covered with a fur blanket.

The bamboo basket he had been carrying all along, and the dragon-patterned spear, were on the grass beside him.

He vaguely remembered that blanket belonged to the dead He Rong.

Dazed for a moment, he guessed that Su Meng saw that he had fallen asleep after drinking too much, and was afraid that he would be cold at night, so she brought a blanket over.

"It's a kind girl."

Pang Jian nodded secretly, took the blanket away and looked at the blades of grass next to him. If there was no dew, he knew that it had been a long time.

He also didn't expect that the vigor of the wine would make him so drunk.

He was secretly vigilant, he must drink in moderation in the future, if the enchantress took the opportunity to kill last night, or met a guy like Dong Tianze again, he would not know how to die.

Looking left and right, there was no one around, so he came to the top of the dwarf mountain.

Standing on the highest point, he found that the witch led the little girl Su Meng, and was pointing Su Meng to pick herbs in the area with the most lush flowers and plants.

Su Meng nodded frequently, studying very seriously, and sometimes asked softly.

"He hasn't left yet!"

Pang Jian snorted coldly. Unexpectedly, after last night, the witch still stayed and continued to act as Ning Yao.

He can't judge the real power of the witch at the moment. Seeing that the witch has not shown any malice for the time being, he plans to take another look.

Gathering his mind, his eyes wandered and he saw Zhou Qingchen and Han Duping, who took a bamboo raft together to the foot of the mountain to the north.

The two were climbing towards the mountain peak leading to the extreme north, and they seemed to want to see what the legendary "strange fog" looked like on the other side of the mountain peak.

Seeing that no new guests arrived on Huxin Island, and Dong Tianze did not show up again, Pang Jian sat down where he was.

From the bamboo basket, he took out the spirit stones that were not of good quality, and with the help of the spiritual energy of the world that was about to dissipate on the island, he began to gather his strength to practice.

Only when the spiritual power is sufficient, can he open up the other four meridians connecting the two feet. After the battle with Dong Tianze, only one-fifth of the spiritual power in his spiritual sea is left.

Such a little spiritual power made him very insecure, he must fill the spiritual sea as soon as possible.

Time flickered and it was evening again.

After Zhou Qingchen and Han Duping appeared from the other side of the mountain, they took the bamboo raft back to the island in the middle of the lake with heavy faces.

Not long after they appeared, Luo Hongyan and Su Meng also arrived beside Pang Jian.

After the conversation last night, Pang Jian's attitude was much colder when he saw Luo Hongyan again, but Luo Hongyan acted as if nothing had happened, talking and laughing with Su Meng along the way.

It's just that it's hard for Su Meng to smile, she squeezed out to cater to Luo Hongyan's smile, it was very forced.

"It's still the easiest for you, you don't have to do anything. Hey, we are all exhausted, and we have been busy all day without knowing it."

Wiping the sweat that was not there on his forehead, Luo Hongyan put on a posture of working hard, pointed to the medicinal herbs piled up beside the White Pagoda, and said: "Those guys like He Rong, the medicinal herbs they were looking for earlier are of too low value, and they can't be exchanged even if they are taken out. How many spirit stones."

"The ones I picked with Su Meng today are the most precious blood-purifying grass, nine-leaf broken star flower, and lightning strike wood."

"For those things, if you take them to the market in the third world above, you can exchange them for at least a thousand spirit stones."

After she finished speaking, Su Meng's big eyes lit up slightly.

Pang Jian said "oh".

He saw that Su Meng was the one who was busy all the time, and Luo Hongyan was just leaning on her mouth with empty hands, but now she was pretending to be hardworking.

"The Xuanyin stone belongs to me. You can exchange these medicinal herbs for spirit stones, just a few points."

Luo Hongyan was annoyed at his attitude, and gave him a blank look, but still said: "Your credit is greater, of course you should share more. When Zhou Qingchen comes over later, I will talk to him and look at his storage How much more can the bracelet hold?"

Pang Jian looked strange, and after a moment of silence, he asked curiously: "Those spiritual materials are really worth a thousand spiritual stones?"

"Today is one thousand, because Su Meng is not yet... because we are not proficient. Tomorrow, the value of the spiritual materials that can be picked should be worth two thousand five." Luo Hongyan said lightly.

"Thank you." Pang Jian said, looking at Su Meng.

Su Meng hurriedly said, "Sister Ning taught me well."

A while later, Zhou Qingchen and the two parked the bamboo raft by the island, and came to the top of the mountain to find the three of them.

"We saw the mist."

Han Duping, who has always been unprincipled, said with a surprisingly serious face, "We didn't dare to go in, we just stared at it from a distance. The strange fog is not standing still, it is slowly spreading towards us. Press At that speed, the mountain will be crossed in a few days, and Ulan Lake will be submerged in ten days."

Zhou Qingchen said helplessly, "I think we should leave the Cenji Mountains earlier."

Luo Hongyan also frowned: "Will it be covered so soon?"

"Almost." Han Duping replied.

"We've finished exploring the mysteries of the Cenji Mountains, and it's time to return to the family." Zhou Qingchen felt like retreating, and didn't plan to go any further.

"Young master Zhou, if I can walk out of the Cenji Mountains alive, I will go to the Zhou family to look for you." Pang Jian said softly.

Zhou Qingchen jumped anxiously: "Pang Jian, are you really going to explore the depths of the mist?!"

Pang Jian nodded.

He had a vague feeling that "Strange Mist" was the place where his father disappeared. He always heard people say that all monks in this world regard "Strange Mist" as the biggest forbidden place between heaven and earth.

But he just wanted to take the risk of looking inside.

"Pang Jian, do you know the danger?!"

Zhou Qingchen glared at him and growled.

"I can imagine." Pang Jian replied.

"No, you don't know!"

Zhou Qingchen shook his head vigorously, took a deep breath, and said: "Since I can remember, all the words related to the mist that I have heard are often accompanied by death, unknown terror, and mysterious disappearance. Don't say Practitioners like you and me, people who are hundreds of times stronger than us will die in it!"

Han Duping and Luo Hongyan didn't say a word, and their expressions were also very serious, obviously they didn't want to touch "Strange Mist".

Su Meng stared blankly at the mountains in the extreme north.

Seeing that Pang Jian had made a decision and remained silent, Luo Hongyan knew that no one could persuade this guy after he made up his mind, so he said, "Well, we still have some time anyway, everyone might as well think about the current affairs first. "

"Zhou Qingchen, the medicinal herbs that Su Meng and I picked are very valuable, but we don't have a spiritual weapon for storage. We need to use your spiritual weapon to store the medicinal herbs we picked. Let's also discuss how to distribute them .”

"Let me declare first that I will not take any spirit stones obtained from medicinal herbs, but Pang Jian must take the lead!"

The last time Zhou Qingchen quarreled with her on the top floor of the tower, the reason was to let Pang Jian take possession of the Xuanyin Stone.

This time, she took the initiative to fight for Pang Jian's interests, so that Pang Jian could get the biggest share.

Zhou Qingchen, who wanted to persuade Pang Jian to change his mind, sighed and nodded, and said to Pang Jian, "You should think about it again."

Pang Jian looked at Luo Hongyan strangely, and nodded: "Yes."

In the next few days, Luo Hongyan still instructed Su Meng to pick herbs around the island.

Zhou Qingchen and Han Duping wandered around Wulan Lake from time to time, and sometimes wandered around, hoping to see if they could find Dong Tianze.

Pang Jian used the existing spirit stones in his hands to gather spiritual power day and night.

Gradually, the pure aura of heaven and earth on this island also began to appear dirty.

Another evening.

After everyone gathered again, Luo Hongyan said: "There was originally a ban on the island, which restricted the departure of spirits and ghosts, and also had the effect of purifying spiritual power. Now because of the death of the black turtle and the departure of the beast soul, the ban has disappeared. gone."

"The ban disappeared, making the aura more and more filthy, and now there are no more herbs worthy of my continued collection."

She and Su Meng have nothing to do.

"The mist has passed over the mountain."

Han Duping suddenly screamed strangely.

Pang Jian suddenly looked to the north of Wulan Lake, and saw a thick gray fog slowly emerging behind the several adjacent peaks.
