The bones emitted faint, mournful cries under the immense pressure, and excruciating pain surged forth like a tidal wave, reaching the very depths of the soul.

Under the sudden onslaught of suffocation and oppression, all the players' faces quickly turned red, their eyes widened, and their eyeballs rolled slightly upwards due to extreme pain.

"Ugh ugh ugh—" Han Chuan shouted hoarsely, but the sound only came out as a faint groan when it reached his throat.

Saliva slowly dripped from the corner of his mouth, and everything went dark before his eyes.

Am I...am I going to die?!

Just as Han Chuan was on the verge of death, a purple light suddenly flashed in the corner of his eye. The light flew from a distance and stabbed fiercely at Yu Ling on the flag-raising platform.

Faced with the menacing longsword, Yu Ling was shocked. She crossed her arms in front of her chest, and the billowing black energy blocked the sharp blade.

With a 'bang', the long sword was blocked by Yu Ling and sent flying.

At the same time, Xiao Jin suddenly appeared in mid-air. She caught the flying debris in her palm, and then, using the momentum, chopped it down heavily on Yu Ling's head.

"You're courting death!" Yu Ling's face was contorted. She glared fiercely at Xiao Jin in the air, and the eerie ghostly energy in her hand transformed into a long whip, which she lashed out at Xiao Jin.

Because Yu Ling was busy fighting Xiao Jin, she gave up on killing players, which greatly reduced the pressure on Han Chuan and the others.

Unfortunately, although Yu Ling didn't crush them, the chains binding them disappeared, causing the players to lose weight and plummet to the ground.

"Aaaaaah~ Boss, help me!"

Just as he came to his senses, Han Chuan, who had just survived a close call, had no time to rejoice before he found himself headfirst, heading straight for the spikes on the ground. He couldn't help but scream at Xiao Jin beside him.

Xiao Jin moved nimbly, suddenly performing a beautiful roll to skillfully avoid the black snake that was spiraling down from the sky. In her ears, she heard the sharp whistling sound of the whip cutting through the air, sharp and rapid, grazing the edge of her skin, carrying a killing intent that should not be underestimated.

Yu Ling's attack was dodged by Xiao Jin, and the gleaming whip could only lash the ground heavily, producing a deafening roar. Instantly, cracks appeared in the hard cement slab, gravel flew everywhere, and dust rose in all directions.

In the midst of his busy schedule, Xiao Jin noticed Han Chuan's situation. He immediately flicked his hand, and a huge black object appeared out of thin air in Xiao Jin's hand. It was then flung down beneath Han Chuan and the others.

'Bang!' Han Chuan felt a sharp pain all over his body. The next second after he opened his eyes, he quickly sat up, raised his hands and searched his body again and again, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness! There are no holes, everything is still intact!

Han Chuan then looked down and was shocked to find himself sitting on a metal shipping container, surrounded by many other players.

Han Chuan burst into tears of joy: "Waaaaah~ Boss, from today onwards you are my only support. I'll worship you when we get back." He was lucky, but the others weren't so fortunate.

It's about four or five meters above the ground. Some players aren't prepared before landing and end up breaking arms or legs. Wu Tianjin was unlucky enough to hit his knee on the container.

He's still lying on the ground, his face pale.

The most unlucky one was the player next to him. Everyone was being strangled half to death by Yu Ling, who had fallen unconscious while in the air. Therefore, he had no protection at all when he fell.

Tsk tsk tsk, that head looks like a smashed watermelon!

Han Chuan felt inexplicably nauseous, and then he felt a burning gaze on him. He looked closely.

"Holy crap!" Han Chuan jumped up suddenly, moving to Wu Tianjin's side and kicking him while quickly pulling props out of his backpack.

Near the container, vengeful spirits lurked, their eyes gleaming with lust, all fixed intently on the player's figure.

"Brother Wu, stop lying down and get up quickly."

After speaking anxiously, Han Chuan cast his gaze towards Xiao Jin on the other side. Unfortunately, Xiao Jin was currently engrossed in a passionate encounter with Yu Ling and had no chance of coming to his aid.

Wu Tianjin also felt that he was having a lot of bad luck in this instance. He was the first person to be pulled into the inner world, and he was also the first person to be discovered and captured by Yu Ling.

Although he didn't die from the fall, he injured his leg at such a crucial moment.

Wu Tianjin was extremely frustrated. As he struggled to his feet despite the excruciating pain, he was thinking that when he returned to the train carriage, he would immediately go to the mall to buy a lucky charm and burn it, and it would be best if he could also take a mugwort bath.

Get rid of his bad luck!

…………

As the fight raged, Yu Ling grew increasingly agitated, targeting Xiao Jin's vital points with each strike, seemingly wanting to vent all the grievances she had suffered in front of Jian Xiuyun.

Xiao Jin showed no mercy, slashing several deep, bone-revealing wounds onto Yu Ling's body with his long sword.

Just then, Xiao Jin caught a glimpse of a figure rushing out of the teaching building. Upon closer inspection, it was none other than Lu Jing.

At that moment, Suiying was tightly bound by Yu Ling's long whip and could not move, and the distance between the human and the ghost suddenly closed.

Yu Ling stared at Xiao Jin for a long while, and then a bloodshot color crept into her eyes. Yu Ling curled her lips into a sinister smile, and then her left hand suddenly changed. Her originally soft and fair fingers transformed into sharp steel claws, which, with the force of a whirlwind, went straight for Xiao Jin's throat.

Xiao Jin reacted swiftly, raising his right arm to precisely block the fatal blow. The two forces collided and pulled fiercely at that moment.

Yu Ling's sharp claws leaped in front of Xiao Jin several times, and almost pierced her eyes a few times.

Xiao Jin's face remained calm as ice, her arm muscles bulging as she shielded herself, yet not a trace of panic showed on her face. Her gaze briefly swept over Yu Ling's crazed face before landing on Lu Jing not far away, and she frowned slightly.

This is hardly good news.

The person didn't die, could it be that they held back from making a move?

No! Xiao Jin quickly dismissed this conjecture.

Although most of her attention had been focused on this area, Xiao Jin was certain she hadn't misheard the faint explosion. She could only say that Lu Jing was rational enough, otherwise he would have been torn to shreds the moment he got close to Jian Xiuyun.

However, since Lu Jing has appeared, it means that Jian Xiuyun is also coming. Xiao Jin naturally knows that the Soul-Suppressing Nail he used will not be able to hold the opponent for long.

Xiao Jin lowered his eyes in deep thought.

But in Yu Ling's eyes, her appearance was undoubtedly a provocation.

Yu Ling's eyes widened in fury, her face contorted, and her figure flickered, almost losing her human form. She roared, "What are you thinking?!"

Xiao Jin slowly raised her eyelids, her arms tensing.

She then replied indifferently, "It's pointless, I'm not going to argue with you anymore!"

"Arrogant!"

"Is that so?" Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow, then raised his leg and kicked to the side, his knee slamming heavily into Yu Ling's waist and abdomen.
