As soon as Lin Qi thought about Qian Cheng possibly refining dozens of teammates, a shiver ran down her spine.

Hearing his words, it seemed he had known Lin Qi's plan all along and deliberately used this opportunity to kill his teammate for cultivation?

It's possible he still has the desire to seek treasure.

Lin Qi still thought that her little scheme had been a great success. Now it seems, who was calculating whom is still unknown.

Tai Chi swordsmanship can be executed in the blink of an eye.

Two swords' intents condensed, forming the Taiji sword intent, charging towards Qian Cheng.

Qian Cheng swayed his bone chain, which moved like a human arm, nimbly weaving and striking directly at the Liang Yi sword intent.

Seeing they were about to collide, the chain bone suddenly bent, dodging the Two Instruments Sword Intent and striking Lin Qi directly.

Lin Qi naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for death.

The Fallen Phoenix's chaotic shadow had long been gathering its strength, a single ice phoenix soared down with its wings spread wide. It flapped its wings, sending a wave of freezing frost across the land.

The bone chain was frozen, ice creeping along it inch by inch.

Qian Cheng's brows furrowed, his wrist tightening. A surge of powerful energy poured into the bone chain phantom, which was magnified several times in size. The sharp tip of the chain lunged fiercely towards the ice phoenix.

Two forces collide and rub against each other, forming a powerful gust of air.

The suppression of the afflicted is fully manifested at this moment.

With majestic spiritual energy propelling it, the skeletal chain phantom was unstoppable, tearing the ice phoenix phantom in two.

The phoenix raised its head and let out a mournful cry, like a lamenting wail.

A biting wind swept through, bringing with it a wave of frost.

Qian Cheng's lips curled into a confident smile. He suddenly extended his gloved left hand, his palm thrumming with immense and terrifying power.

A black vortex appeared in his palm.

The wind and sand around moved silently, growing denser as the spiritual energy released by Qian Cheng intensified. The ground trembled more violently as the wind and sand churned.

Lin Qi wiped the blood from her face, seriously suspecting that this fellow also wanted to summon a black sand skeleton to kill her.

Given Lin Qi's current strength, she simply can't handle two Black Sand Skeletons anymore.

She must solve him before the money spell is successful!

Four platforms of frigid wood spun frantically, channeling all spiritual energy outwards with fervor.

Lin Qi tightly gripped the Qinghuang Sword in his hand. The cold sword light slowly drew a stroke and a dot in the empty space.

The Qinghuang Sword's sword shadows overlapped, emitting dazzling and mesmerizing glazed light. With a single flourish, it drew a sword flower, its tip pointing like a beacon, its sharpness undeniable!

The released spiritual energy suddenly surged.

That point, as if it had switched something on.

A massive, luminous character for "righteousness" (义) hovered in the night sky, its surface shimmering against the backdrop of black sand rock.

Qian Cheng's eyes, who was preparing a killing move, suddenly narrowed. The bone chain retracted, and with no hesitation, his left hand shot out.

The word "yi" with its sharp edges and chilling gleam seemed to cleave the void, exuding an aura of power that left Qian Cheng feeling suffocated.

Qian Cheng's pupils dilated slightly. How could a mere Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivator wield such a powerful technique?

Before he could understand what was happening, two forces collided in mid-air.

A black vortex stirred up countless tornadoes that blotted out the sky, blocking the sword qi of the righteousness.

Qian Cheng unleashed his spiritual energy to bolster the black vortex, further amplifying the power of the tornado. A confident look spread across his face.

So what if your moves are amazing?

To fight against a Foundation Establishment Great Accomplishment with just a Middle Foundation Establishment is simply delusional!

Only when he saw the sword qi of righteousness tear through the tornado, its light piercing the night and reaching his eyes, did the confident smile on his face stiffen.

The next second, she pulled herself around and ran away.

Several dim, white bone puppets were thrown out.

These white bone puppets, upon landing, instinctively sought out Lin Qi's position and rushed towards her.

Qian Cheng thought the white bone puppet could still hold back for a while, buying him some time.

But he underestimated the power of the Earth Grade techniques!

How could a person possibly outrun sword qi?

As soon as his front foot left the ground, his left shoulder was slashed by sword qi, and blood erupted instantly.

Then his entire back was slashed by the sword qi of the Yi character.

After a few dozen breaths, the tornado and howling winds subsided. Black sand rained down, covering Qian Cheng's body, which had been cut into five pieces.

Lin Qi fell heavily to the ground.

She also wanted to cry.

A burning pain lanced through her face, and her whole body ached unbearably. Her mind was empty, devoid of any spiritual energy.

It's really sour and refreshing!

It's so hard to earn points!

The Sky-Piercing Green Vine retracted its vines and appeared beside Lin Qi, "I've already searched the storage pouches on this creature. Let's get out of here!"

After spending time with Lin Qi, even the heavenly green vine knew that the most valuable thing on a cultivator was their storage pouch.

After killing someone, you must immediately search the storage space.

It certainly remembers this rule well.

Lin Qi nodded, "Okay!"

Tongtian Green Vine turned its head, puzzled and said, "Which way do we run?"

The others, including Lin Qi, were puzzled. They had been fighting here for so long, yet not a single demon cultivator had come to take a look.

Could something big have happened elsewhere?

Lin Qi's eyes were blurred with blood. She wiped them and could barely make out the direction.

It was just a sea of blood before my eyes, it looked really creepy.

"Keep moving forward, let's see just how impressive the place where the bone beads are hidden is."

The Sky-Piercing Green Vine trembled, "If we go to the Bone Tomb in our current state, we'll definitely be dead!"

"Don't go straight into a fight, first go and check out the situation. Once we've seen what's going on, we'll run."

That's in line with Tongtianlvteng's thoughts.

It looked at Lin Qi's appearance, and also felt a bit of pity and worry, "Why don't I help you bandage it first?"

Lin Qi's physique had a very strong self-healing ability, but no matter how strong it was, it couldn't heal wounds in the blink of an eye.

Lin Qi wiped the blood from her face and replied, "It's fine, I'll go now. We've already stalled here long enough!"

When heading to the Bone Tomb, Lin Qi took the opportunity to glance at the ranking list.

She actually shot up to 2145 points all at once!

He barely made it onto the list, at the very bottom.

Lin Qi's mind raced.

So many points, even if all the dead players from three teams were counted on her, there would still be 40 more!

No!

Lin Qi, you instantly realized how those forty minutes came to be!

Those two black sand puppets!

They are half-step Golden Core cultivators, twenty points for one is not much.

Thinking of this, Lin Qi's heart was filled with passion.

Of course, you can't just focus on small fry. Otherwise, by the time the secret realm closes, she might not even make it onto the ranking board!

Suddenly becoming rich made Lin Qi forget the pain on her face, and she yearned for the bone grave even more.

She had only walked halfway according to the map when a huge explosion suddenly sounded in the distance.

The tremendous impact sent a cloud of dust swirling. Lin Qi was thrown back two steps, getting a mouthful of sand in the process.

"Tsk, tsk!" She spat out two mouthfuls of sand, her eyes fixed on the distance.

Several figures plummeted from the sky, powerful spells erupting one after another with terrifying force.

Countless white bone puppets surged out from the blast site.

In the center of the swirling black sand, eight towering black sand golems hung in mid-air, their murderous intent permeating the entire sky.

Lin Qi was startled. Someone had already made a move on the Bone Tomb!
