31 Another Deadlock

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The spiritual shield floating in front of Zhang Jianchi dimmed, and the purple-gold robe on his body was blown into pieces.

He clenched his teeth tightly, and blood slowly flowed out.

His internal organs had been displaced by the explosion. If he could not be treated in time, the root cause of his illness would remain.

If he used her spiritual power at this time, it would definitely worsen the injuries in his body.

The problem was that Wan Wan was eyeing him covetously.

He was able to survive in the core of the explosion of the magic tool thanks to the spiritual shield in his hand. Now, the spiritual shield was unable to support itself anymore.

A powerful spiritual energy fluctuation attacked Zhang Jianchi. It was obvious that it came from Wan Wan.

Zhang Jianchi could only fight with all his might. As for the subordinates he brought with him, they were either dead or injured. They were basically unable to fight anymore.

He endured the pain in his body and circulated his spiritual power, his heart filled with regret.

Why did she have to get close to him just now? Why must she mock him? Why did he not make one last hit?

Wan Wan's spirit energy kept pouring out. Although she did not know any powerful spells, the spirit energy in her body was quite huge, and the pure spirit energy pouring out was also quite powerful.

Otherwise, Wan Wan would not have been able to resist Xu Yunhe's attack alone when Zhang Jianchi was in the illusion.

Now, this powerful force was directed at Zhang Jianchi.

Without the protection of the spiritual shield, the protective talismans on his body had also been exhausted.

Now, he could only use spells to resist.

Unfortunately, his body had suffered serious damage, and the frequency and speed of his spiritual power had plummeted.

Soon, Zhang Jianchi was like a dead dog, lying on the ground after getting beaten.

Wan Wan saw that all the enemies she had to defeat were on the ground and heaved a sigh of relief. However, she did not relax. She did not forget the person who had sent her a voice transmission.

If it was not for Zhang Jianchi's serious injuries, she would not have killed him immediately. She would have waited for He Qingge to step out.

Wan Wan's cold gaze swept across the group of people around her.

She would definitely not let this group of people off. The news of her Heavenly Demon Charm Body must not spread.

Otherwise, it might attract countless old monsters. There could be no coincidences.

"Come out, let's have a good talk," Wan Wan said calmly as she scanned the surroundings.

Up until now, she still did not know who had sent her a voice transmission. After all, it was just a voice transmission. They had not really spoken to each other.

At most, she just moved her pinkie finger.

He Qingge was feeling a little conflicted. Logically speaking, he could be considered half her savior. 

If she was not unsealed when she was, she would probably have become a toy in someone else's hands.

Wan Wan definitely would not let the people who knew about her Heavenly Demon Charm Body leave this place. What was half a savior to her?

He Qingge had been preparing his trump card just now. The spiritual power in Wan Wan's body was indeed very strong, and her method of using it was too simple.

Meanwhile, he knew how to use spells, talismans, and magic tools.

If he did it properly, there was indeed a chance to kill her. Wan Wan's power was directly instilled into her body.

Even if he could kill Wan Wan, he would definitely be seriously injured.

There were still many Qi Refinement offerings that had not died here, and he would not be able to deal with them alone.

First, he pretended to be deaf and dumb. He lay down to observe the situation.

After a long and fierce battle, even if Wan Wan's spirit energy was still abundant, her spirit might not be able to last much longer.

Wan Wan's expression darkened when she saw that no one responded to her. There were many Qi Refinement offerings on the ground pretending to be dead.

After hesitating for a moment, she did not attack immediately. Instead, she went to the blood-colored lotus throne and began to recuperate.

She pretended to be recuperating, but in fact, she was preparing to refine the array formation here.

Zhu Zheng arranged the array, so she naturally grew to be quite familiar with it after staying here for such a long time.

The atmosphere instantly lightened up when they saw Wan Wan recuperate with her eyes closed.

The oppressive atmosphere in the space had dissipated a lot. Everyone was still on guard against each other. No one took the lead to stand up and leave.

No one wanted to stand out.

There were also people who looked at Wan Wan greedily.

Most of them were silently recovering from their injuries.

Seeing this, He Qingge looked around and began to transmit his voice to the others.

Now that there was only one big shot left, he definitely could not wait for her to recover.

"Don't make a sound, don't answer, and remain silent.

"The Heavenly Demon Charm Body must be in a bad condition. If we let her recover, she definitely won't let anyone who knows about her Heavenly Demon Charm Body leave this place alive.

"When she recovers, all of us will die."

He Qingge sent a voice transmission to everyone except Wan Wan.

Soon, the group of people looked at each other, trying to find out who was the one who was passing the message.

He Qingge was still playing dead.

With his Hearing, he could sense their movements even without using his eyes.

The crowd was still dead silent. Many people knew this, but the question was who would take the lead?

Once someone stepped forward, they would definitely receive Wan Wan's crazy attacks. Without a high-grade or top-grade protective talisman, they probably would not be able to resist Wan Wan's attacks at all.

He Qingge felt a little uncomfortable seeing that no one stood up.

He specially selected those who were still alive and those with the strongest combat ability, trying to bewitch them.

There was still no effect. No one took the initiative to step forward.

It was a stalemate.

Seeing this situation, He Qingge felt that he was being too smart.

This group of people must have known about this long ago.

After he sent the voice transmission, the group of people thought that there was still someone who would step out to be the sacrificial lamb. They were just waiting for that person to appear.

The trapping array had locked everyone here, and Zhang Jianchi had placed the array compass in advance. The level-one top-grade spirit stone provided spiritual power, so there was no need for human control.

Even if he died, this trap array would still remain.

It was precisely because of the energy provided by the level-one top-grade spirit stone that Xu Yunhe's magic weapon attack did not instantly break through the array.

He Qingge did not plan to stand up for himself. Whoever stood would definitely be beaten up by Wan Wan.

If the others did not react, he would die in vain.

Even if he was lucky enough to kill Wan Wan with his trump card, his vitality would definitely be greatly damaged, and the possibility of escaping would be even smaller.

Everyone was silently circulating the spiritual energy in their bodies, accumulating their strength and waiting for the situation to change.

They hoped to leave this place alive or get a share of the loot.

There were two strong physique cultivators and two peak-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivators who had died here. They had a lot of good things with them.

Soon, He Qingge's pupils constricted.
