The two men's minds simultaneously merged into the scroll. The power of their divine consciousness was like a sharp sword, piercing the last three seals.
Rays of strange light flashed out and rushed into the sky. The scroll trembled slightly, and the entire world began to move in the same rhythm, harmonizing with it.
"It's opened, finally opened." Looking at the scroll slowly opening in her hand, Jiang Qiling was so excited that she could hardly contain herself.
Mu Hanyan also breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, Fen Qianji suddenly let out a low cry of pain.
The terrifying black flames appeared outside his body again. Even the land beneath him was rapidly crystallizing and melting under the high temperature, and then turned into balls of fiery red mist that rose up.
Fen Qianji was surrounded by the fiery red mist, and his figure gradually became illusory! His vitality also disappeared at an alarming speed.
"Qian Ji..." The miracle did not happen after all. Seeing Fen Qian Ji about to be burned in the refining fire of the Divine Prison and disappear from her world forever, Mu Hanyan was choked with sobs and unable to speak, and her vision became hazy.
"This, this is..." The scroll in Jiang Qiling's hand was finally opened completely, and she let out a cry of surprise.
Mu Hanyan was immersed in the grief of Fen Qianji's impending death and had no time to care about her. When she heard the scream and turned her head, she saw a black light suddenly burst out from the scroll.
"Help..." Before Jiang Qiling finished her voice, she was already sucked into the black hole.
The black light shot out straight and landed right on Fen Qianji's body. Before Mu Hanyan and the others could react to what was happening, he disappeared into the black hole with the Divine Prison Refining Fire on his body.
The scroll also disappeared from sight, leaving no trace except for the piece of land where Fen Qianji was originally, which melted and then quickly solidified into rock, as if he and Jiang Qiling had never appeared.
"This...what's going on?" Mu Hanyan asked in surprise and doubt, more like talking to herself, because no one could give her an answer.
"The Continent of Gods, this is the breath of the Continent of Gods, they have been teleported to the Continent of Gods." The voice of Xinghuan Qianji sounded again in his mind.
After hearing what he said, Mu Hanyan realized that, as expected, with the appearance of the scroll, a unique aura of heaven and earth from the Divine Continent was also released, but it quickly merged into the chaotic power of heaven and earth around it, and ordinary people could not detect it at all.
"He was originally one of the twelve priests of the temple. Returning to the Continent of Gods may not be a bad thing for him. He may still have a chance to survive." Xinghuan Qianji said comfortingly.
Even though it was just a word of consolation, and as illusory as the miracle he had mentioned before, Mu Hanyan still felt a bit of hope in her heart.
Yes, returning to the Divine Continent might give Fen Qianji a last chance of survival. After all, he was one of the Twelve Divine Language Priests. The Divine Lord would never stand by and watch someone die. Considering how the Holy Lord nearly died at the hands of the Divine Lord a thousand years ago, only to be saved by the sacrifice of six elders from Divine Elder Peak, the Divine Lord's power was undoubtedly unfathomable. Perhaps, only he could save Fen Qianji; not even the Holy Lord could do anything.
This is not to say that the Saint Lord's strength is really much worse than that of the God Lord. After all, a thousand years have passed, and the current Saint Lord's strength may not be inferior to that of the God Lord. But after all, this is the Holy Court Continent, and Fen Qianji is not a saint. Whether in physique or cultivation method, he is completely different from them.
In truth, she should have thought of sending Fen Qianji back to the Divine Continent earlier, but crossing the sealed barrier was no easy task. Even Hua Yue's father, another blessed priest, had endured countless hardships to reach the Holy Court Continent. Many of the people currently hidden within the Holy Court Continent's temples were descendants of powerful individuals who had previously crossed the sealed barrier. With Mu Hanyan's strength, there was no way she could send Fen Qianji back. Furthermore, the situation was critical, and she simply didn't have the luxury of time.
"By the way, Senior Qianji, are you okay?" Mu Hanyan asked. No matter what, as long as she hadn't witnessed Fen Qianji's death before her own eyes, her hope wouldn't be shattered. Knowing that worrying wouldn't change anything, she forced herself to put Fen Qianji's concerns aside for the time being.
"I don't know how long it will take for me to condense into a soul body this time. Forget it, I'm going to practice. I guess I'll have to go into seclusion for a while. If anything happens, you have to be careful to deal with it yourself. I can't help you anymore." Xinghuan Qianji said.
"Sleeping again?" Mu Hanyan muttered subconsciously.
"It's seclusion, seclusion!" Xinghuan Qianji roared angrily, and then there was no sound at all. It seemed that he was angry with Mu Hanyan again.
"Hanyan, don't worry too much. I think Brother Qianji will be fine." Tang Bufan stepped forward and said to Mu Hanyan.
"I also believe that he will be fine." Hua Yue and others walked up and said to Mu Hanyan.
"Yeah." Mu Hanyan nodded. Although Fen Qianji's life or death was uncertain, she felt relieved by the company of these friends.
Mu Hanyan's gaze turned into the distance, towards the sky.
The other side of the sky is the continent of God. Will the Lord God be able to discover his return in the first time? Can he save him? Can he keep his life?
Mu Hanyan clenched her fists. She would never feel at peace until she found the answer, so she had to go to the Continent of Gods. Of course, she didn't have the strength to do that now, unless she could reach the realm of Sword Saint.
After a long while, Mu Hanyan finally regained her composure. Strength, what she needed most was still strength, even stronger strength.
"Let's go, let's set off!" Mu Hanyan turned her head and said to Zhuang Ping'an and others.
"Young Master Mu, you and Lord Ye were both injured before. Why don't you recuperate for a few days before setting off again?" Looking at the thick fog around them and thinking of the unknown dangers, Zhuang Ping'an and others were a little scared.
If Mu Hanyan and Ye Lanxun were safe and sound, they would have nothing to worry about. However, the two of them were still injured and in poor condition. If something went wrong, they had no confidence that they could safely survive the crisis.
"No need. We will regulate our breathing as we walk. You will have to walk the rest of the way on your own." Mu Hanyan said.
"What...what?" Zhuang Ping'an's voice trembled slightly, and the expressions of the others changed at the same time.
"Let's go." Mu Hanyan didn't explain, but just said lightly.
Fen Qianji's incident once again made her realize that her abilities had their limits. At least at this moment, she didn't have the ability or qualifications to dominate all living things. Therefore, she couldn't always protect Zhuang Ping'an and the others, or she would only harm them. From now on, no matter what crisis arose, they would have to deal with it on their own. Only after such experience would they have a better chance of survival when they went to Tianmu.
Although they were feeling nervous and uneasy, after being together for so long, Zhuang Ping'an and the others knew that Mu Hanyan was a man of her word, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and walk towards the sky curtain.
