Chen Qiang could naturally see that the Long Botao in front of him was still just a projection, and it was most likely caused by him killing Ba Snake and triggering some kind of magic spell.

But in his current state, even if it is just a projection, it is difficult to compete with him.

What's more, the usable experience accumulated during this period has been exhausted again. He has no trump cards that he can use. It can really be described as being at the end of his rope.

"It's just a projection. You couldn't do anything to me last time, and you can't do anything this time either!" Chen Qiang clenched the Wentian Sword tightly, trying to buy time.

Every extra second now gives him an extra second to recover, allowing him to make a last-ditch effort and accumulate strength.

Unfortunately, Chen Qiang's current state was completely seen through by Long Botao. There was a hint of coolness in the corner of his mouth, and with a wave of his hand, a burst of energy was directed at Chen Qiang.

However, Chen Qiang could not move his body at all and could only let this energy fall on him.

However, under the cover of a brilliant light, Hu Xiaoyou decisively used Jiuyou Sky Fox Tower to help Chen Qiang block the attack.

"Oh?" There was a hint of evil in the corner of Long Botao's mouth: "Your woman is a bit in the way."

"So be it, because of you, I lost my Yue'er."

"Now, it's because of you that I want you to lose your woman. How about it? It's fair, right?"

After hearing Long Botao's words, Chen Qiang couldn't help but feel angry. The person who could say these words was definitely a madman.

"Murong Yue is not your woman, and my woman, don't even think about touching her!"

With the help of Wentian Sword, Chen Qiang propped up his body, but as soon as he stood up, Long Botao's attack was already within reach.

A seemingly random palm can activate the power of heaven and earth and slam it into the defensive aura of Jiuyou Sky Fox Tower, causing the tower body to shake uncontrollably.

Boom! Boom! Boom!——

With one palm after another, the Jiuyou Sky Fox Tower was already covered with cracks.

The next moment, the tower collapsed, the defensive aura instantly dissipated, and a new palm struck again.

Seeing that Hu Xiaoyou was about to resist with his body, Chen Qiang tried his best to circulate his true energy and summoned the Bagua Yin-Yang Sword Formation.

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Chen Qiang flew backwards. Fortunately, Hu Xiaoyou followed closely and helped him release a lot of energy, otherwise his already severely injured body would have been even more broken.

"You don't overestimate your capabilities. Okay, get ready to taste the feeling of losing your loved one." Long Botao's sarcasm came again.

Bang!——

At this moment, the Nine Nether Sky Fox Tower, which had reached its limit, finally couldn't hold on any longer and exploded.

Being implicated, Hu Xiaoyou also spurted out a mouthful of blood. However, when her blood merged into the fragments of the Jiuyou Sky Fox Tower, a strange scene happened.

I saw the fragments of the Jiuyou Sky Fox Tower that had been shattered into pieces suddenly burst into golden light, and a terrifying aura wave suddenly spread out.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..."

The fragments of the Nine Nether Sky Fox Tower turned into golden rainbows and were inserted into the void, as if they had carved a formation.

Immediately afterwards, this formation turned into a circular light curtain, with spiritual light rippling and shining.

"Um?"

Feeling a wave of space, Long Botao frowned slightly. He didn't like the feeling of the unknown, so he stopped holding back.

He made a hand seal, and a dragon-shaped creature, covered in black mist, slowly appeared in front of him.

However, just when the dragon-shaped creature was about to spit out a breath and directly destroy Chen Qiang and Hu Xiaoyou, a demonic energy suddenly shot into the sky in the distance.

Although it was only a short moment, people could clearly see it for tens of thousands of miles around and feel the terrifying power of this demonic energy.

Long Botao was stunned for a moment and hesitated for a moment.

He recognized that the demonic energy was caused by the Heaven Sealing Demonic Sword, which also showed that Chu Mo, the master craftsman of Tianxing Pavilion, was in the Liuyun Mountain Range!

Just when Long Botao was hesitating, Chen Qiang grabbed Hu Xiaoyou, jumped with all his strength, and rushed into the light curtain.

"Oops!" Long Botao was shocked. When he looked again, Chen Qiang and Hu Xiaoyou were nowhere to be seen.

"Forget it, let's spare your lives for now. If we can get the Heaven Sealing Demonic Sword, we, the Hundred Beast Palace, will definitely dominate the Qin Dynasty!"

Long Botao's eyes flashed, he no longer hesitated, and quickly rushed towards the direction where he just saw the demonic energy.

...

After passing through the light curtain, Chen Qiang was greeted by a long-lost feeling of dizziness. After he got used to it a little, his eyes suddenly opened up and he came to another place.

The spiritual energy here is so rich that it is almost solid, and the space is huge, like a huge square with various ancient buildings standing around it.

"Is this...an illusion? Or a secret realm?"

"With such abundant spiritual energy, it must not be a forbidden area."

Chen Qiang couldn't help but think in his mind. If it was an illusion, he only needed to find a way to break it, but if it was a secret realm, it would be a bit troublesome.

Secret realms, like forbidden areas, will have their own rules.

First of all, it is extremely difficult to find the exit, and I am even more afraid of encountering different laws of time. If I leave the secret realm, hundreds or even thousands of years will have passed in the outside world, and the Sword Sect may be finished.

But since that's the case, let's settle for it.

Fortunately, Hu Xiaoyou was by her side, but something was wrong with her current situation, and she was in a deep sleep state.

Fortunately, I could feel that the other party's life aura was stable, and even the previous injuries were gradually healing under this rich spiritual energy.

"Xiaoyou, don't worry, I will definitely take you out." Chen Qiang murmured.

Holding Hu Xiaoyou against him for the time being, Chen Qiang was not in a hurry to explore the square or even the ancient buildings on the far side.

Instead, he sat cross-legged and began to recover from his injuries.

Three days passed in a flash, and Hu Xiaoyou still showed no sign of waking up, but Chen Qiang returned to his peak condition.

He picked up Hu Xiaoyou and started walking towards the inside of the square.

The square was huge. Chen Qiang estimated that it would be easy to hold a concert for 100,000 people. He held Hu Xiaoyou and walked around while exploring.

Suddenly, his steps stopped.

About ten meters away from him, there was a broken stone tablet with the word "Jing" written on it.

Not long after, he found several stone tablets of the same material nearby. Some of the stone tablets had words on them, while others had no words on them.

After searching almost the entire square and finding no new results, Chen Qiang began to try to piece together the dozens of stone tablets he had collected.

When all the stone tablets were assembled, seven vigorous and powerful characters came into view.

——Lost Land, Thirty Five.

"Huh? You don't know Jue Li's appearance. What the hell is this place?" Seeing these seven words, Chen Qiang didn't feel that he had been explained, but became even more confused.

What surprised him even more was that this stone tablet, which was obviously made of pieces, was now as smooth as a mirror, with no trace of damage.

The next moment.
Chapter completed!
