Chang Le raised his hand and patted the back of his hand: "I promise you."
Lu Jin'an stood up and solemnly bowed to Chang Le to express his gratitude.
This was no simple matter. Chang Le's agreement meant she would bear the consequences of Lu Yanhuai's soul changing its destination after death. That's why Lu Jin'an offered to help her enter the secret realm in exchange, and solemnly expressed his gratitude.
Lu Jin'an said, "Then next, we need to see who will help us and who won't at the Golden Summit, and how to deal with different people."
12 hours, 7 pm.
Mira is seriously injured; Wei Jinyan is eliminated due to loss of mobility; Feng Mingye is eliminated by Ma Yuanhong. There are 8 players remaining.
Chang Le, Lu Jin'an, Gu Yujing, Hua Anning, Shen Xiu, Qin Xian, Mila, Ma Yuanhong.
Eight people approached the only mountain path to Jindingtai from different directions.
Hua Anning and Gu Yujing were the first to arrive at the trailhead, where they stopped.
Next, the remaining six people arrived one by one, but none of them went up the mountain. They all waited at the trailhead, wary of each other.
The eight people were all in a sorry state, but at this moment, they were all incredibly fierce.
After 60 hours of running and fighting, everyone was on the verge of their limits, or even at their limit, with only a last bit of mental strength left to keep going. Anyone who wasn't particularly familiar with them looked like an enemy.
Fine snowflakes drifted down slowly, and an arc of light pierced the cold wind, suddenly striking Chang Le's face.
It's Mira Bruch!
This fiery, wild, red-haired, dark-skinned, and naturally fierce warrior chose to attack the instant after Chang Le's gaze swept over her. Her target was Chang Le, who was closest to her, looked the thinnest, and was the most seriously injured among them all.
But apart from the twenty minutes Lu Jin'an was protecting him, Chang Le never let his guard down for the rest of the time.
The moment Mira's dagger stirred the wind, she swiftly dodged, and vines instantly rose from the ground, intertwining to form a shield.
Lu Jin'an, on the other side of Chang Le, also moved. Without hesitation, in the gap when the vines spread out and Mira was preparing for a second attack, he suddenly closed his hands in front of his body from both sides, bringing up snowflakes in mid-air and shooting them forward.
In that instant, the snowflakes suddenly took on a silvery metallic sheen, transforming into sharp weapons that rained down on Mira.
This is Lu Jin'an's special ability—[Hardening].
As the name suggests, it can change the hardness of objects within a certain range for a certain period of time, but the object being changed must be an inanimate object.
The swirling snowflakes transformed into sharp weapons. Mira, already severely injured, dared not withstand the attack and retreated repeatedly. Lu Jin'an pressed closer, and the two clashed.
Just then, another powerful punch came from the left. Before Chang Le could move, Hua Anning and Gu Yujing simultaneously blocked it.
It's Ma Yuanhong!
Hua Anning gave Gu Yujing a wink, while she engaged Ma Yuanhong in combat.
The unpredictable and ever-changing wind firmly restrained Ma Yuanhong, who relied on brute force to overcome skill.
Given equal cultivation levels, Ma Yuanhong was clearly at a disadvantage. Moreover, Hua Anning, having consistently collaborated with others, was in better condition, while Ma Yuanhong struggled to maintain his position.
Qin Xian also made a move, and his target was Chang Le again!
Chang Le retreated and dodged, thinking to himself: Do I look like someone who's easy to bully? Why are they all hitting me?
Despite the complaints, only Mira had this reason. Ma Yuanhong was itching to try his skills, while Qin Xian was instructed by the management not to easily enter the secret realm.
Gu Yujing tried to stop Qin Xian, but Shen Xiu caught her off guard.
He stared coldly at Shen Xiu: "You're stopping me?"
Shen Xiu said helplessly, "The old man is determined to stop Chang Le, and I, as the young master, can't just stand by and do nothing. I won't attack Chang Le, but it's been a long time since we fought, hasn't it?"
Gu Yujing smirked: "Do I need to pick a time to beat you up?"
"How arrogant! I'm older than you, you have to call me brother." Shen Xiu roared, his dragon horns and scales bulged, and his aura instantly surged.
Gu Yujing was surrounded by black and white light, like a painting in ink and wash. Wherever he passed, all of Shenxiu's supernatural abilities were weakened and almost disappeared.
Superpower: Annihilation of All Laws.
The Gu family's inherited symbol of "extinction" is the "annihilation of all things";
The power of the evil god, the ability to "merge" [all things return to one];
The "Angel Oracle," representing "light," is a legacy passed down through the Vera family.
These three superpowers are the most domineering and powerful abilities discovered by humans so far, and are also known as the three "forbidden abilities".
On the other side, Chang Le and Qin Xian clashed several times.
Dozens of vines with tricky angles all missed their mark. Qin Xian's speed wasn't particularly good, yet he managed to avoid being hit. It was as if something invisible was guiding him, allowing him to narrowly avoid vital points.
Chang Le was brainstorming when he suddenly remembered the Qin family's special abilities.
The two major families of the Management Council, the Qin family and the Ying family, have seen many changes among the nine regional families, but the Management Council has always been controlled by these two families.
One of the reasons is that the abilities of the two families are closely related to the survival and prosperity of the Central Plains itself.
The Qin family's inherited supernatural ability is named—【Sun and Moon Shining Brightly】.
This superpower itself does not possess any combat ability, nor does it provide any significant boost to its owner.
This ability originated from ancient Chinese astronomy. Legend has it that the Qin family's ancestor was a Feng Shui master and astrologer. Through generations of merit, he was able to communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and receive auspicious energy from the dragon veins of the Central Plains to nourish his body, ultimately achieving the superpower "Sun and Moon Shining Brightly".
The Qin family's ability to stabilize the fortunes of the Central Plains is a protective ability.
Luck and fortune.
These two words appeared in Chang Le's mind.
Could it be that Qin Xian's special ability brought him a boost in luck?
Because of his special ability, Qin Xian lacked combat skills, but he had undergone more physical training, and his current condition was much better than Chang Le's.
