The second sword strike followed immediately.

The third sword then fell.

Three Sword Lights overlapped.

The Ghost Script on the surface of the stone pillar began to crack.

The Bone Baleful Intent roared, and its Root Bone arms simultaneously broke free of the Three Extremes Origin Seal.

Chen Changqing turned and swung his sword.

"Sword Annihilates the Ten Directions"

Ten Sword Lights converged in mid-air, forming a sword curtain.

The six-armed Bone Baleful Intent crashed into the sword curtain.

Cracks kept appearing on the dark red bone armor.

Taking advantage of this moment, Chen Changqing slashed at the stone pillar again.

Click!

The stone pillar on the right is broken.

The gray-white beam of light extinguished on the spot.

The aura emanating from Bone Baleful Intent decreased slightly.

Its movements also paused briefly.

Gu Li, Poison Boy, and Rakshasa City, who were in the distance, all witnessed this scene.

The Poison Boy's face turned pale.

He's destroying the altar!

Gu Li gripped the bone blade tightly.

We can't let him continue!

The Xiuzhan, led by Rakshasa City, seized the opportunity.

Taking advantage of Gu Li's distraction, he turned around and grabbed the third command flag.

The command flag was removed from the altar.

A grayish-white light entered his body.

"Flag captured successfully."

Current owner: Rakshasa City, Blood Butcher.

The second command flag also emitted violent fluctuations at this moment.

Gu Li and Poison Boy attacked simultaneously.

The two people's Law Powers collided above the altar.

The second command flag was blown away.

It didn't land in any direction; instead, it flew towards where Chen Changqing was.

Chen Changqing raised his hand and grabbed.

The command flag fell into his hand.

The second Netherworld Command Banner recognized its master.

"Flag captured successfully."

Current holder: Chen Changqing.

Of the three command flags, Chen Changqing commanded two.

Gu Li and Poison Boy stopped fighting at the same time.

Blood Butcher also gripped the third command flag, standing at the other end of the altar.

The auras of all three groups were locked onto Chen Changqing.

Just then, a deep roar suddenly came from the broken stone pillar.

Beneath the Black-Blood Deep Valley, a colossal, ancient phantom slowly opened its eyes.

Those eyes were devoid of emotion.

There was only deathly silence.

The voice left behind by the White-Robed Ghost Immortal outside the Secret Realm crossed space and reached everyone's ears.

"The foundation of the altar has been damaged."

"The Primordial Battlefield Remnant Will is about to be rekindled."

"The one who carries the Netherworld Command Banner must leave the Lightless Forbidden Land within one incense stick's time."

Otherwise, everyone will be trapped here and die.

Chen Changqing looked up at the top of the deep valley.

The space of the Lightless Forbidden Land began to collapse on a large scale.

The time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

That's enough for him to fight his way out.

But Gu Li and Poison Boy clearly wouldn't let him leave so easily.

After the ancient phantom opened its eyes, the entire Black-Blood Deep Valley began to sink.

The scorched earth in the distance was swallowed up by the spatial rift.

The three waning moons dimmed simultaneously.

Above the desolate, Lightless Forbidden Land wasteland, massive cracks stretched outwards, as if the entire fragmented world was about to be thrown back into the Primordial Battlefield.

The Bone Baleful Intent stopped in front of the altar.

Its bony armor cracked, leaving only eight of the nine stone pillars.

Three of them have already developed cracks.

Chen Changqing stood on the east side of the altar, holding two Netherworld Command Banner.

The third command flag in Blood Butcher's hand emitted a blood-red light.

Although Gu Li and Poison Boy did not have command flags, they were both qualified to participate in the battle.

As long as they can leave alive, they will have the opportunity to advance by using the banners of other forces.

Therefore, the real battle has only just begun.

The Gu Li move first.

A White Bone Royal City rose up behind him.

Within the royal city, thousands of white bone chains flew out, sealing off the space around Chen Changqing.

"Hand over a command flag."

Gu Li, wielding a bone blade, strode forward, defying the Principle of the royal city.

"Otherwise, you won't be able to leave Black-Blood Deep Valley today."

Poison Boy stood on the other side, holding a purplish-black pill in his palm.

"I only want your physical body."

"If you hand over the command flag to Gu Li, I, this servant, may spare your body intact."

Chen Changqing glanced at the two of them.

You haven't grasped the situation yet.

He raised his hand and waved.

The Human Emperor Heaven-Suppressing Seal hung above his head.

A golden halo spread.

The white bone lock links are broken.

The White Bone Royal City Gu Li was crushed by the overwhelming force of humanity, and the skeletal soldiers within crumbled one after another.

Chen Changqing drew his sword and stepped forward.

The Sword Light flashed across Gu Li's chest.

Gu Li blocked with his sword, but was cleaved hundreds of feet away.

His silver armor cracked, leaving a deep sword wound on his chest.

"Your sword is indeed very strong."

Gu Li stared at Chen Changqing.

"But you're currently locked onto by the Bone Baleful Intent, and you also have to face me and the Poison Boy."

"I'd like to see how long you can hold out."

Gu Li raised his hand and slammed it against the ground.

The White Bone Royal City has been fully revealed.

Within a radius of tens of miles, countless Bone Spears emerged from the ground, their tips all pointing at Chen Changqing.

The Poison Boy also opened the Poison Cauldron.

These are not ordinary poisonous insects.

Instead, it was a purplish-black centipede that was hundreds of feet long.

The centipede's body was covered with human faces, and each face was emitting painful cries.

"Myriad Poisons Soul Devour."

The purplish-black centipede lunged at Chen Changqing.

The Bone Baleful Intent also launched its attack at this moment.

Root Bone arms fell simultaneously.

The combined forces of the three parties effectively blocked Chen Changqing from all directions.

Chen Changqing unleashed Sword Domain around his body.

Black and white Sword Qi rose from the void, forming a wall of swords.

The Bone Spears struck the wall of swords and broke one after another.

The purplish-black centipede rushed into the Sword Domain, and the poisonous gas on its body was quickly suppressed by the Sword Intent.

The Root Bone arms of the Bone Baleful Intent fell.

The Sword Domain was forced to contract inward.

The Twelve Primordial Spirits within Chen Changqing's body operated simultaneously.

Despite the suppression of his Divine Sense over three thousand miles, he still managed to forcibly lock onto the changes in the Bone Baleful Intent's aura.

Nine stone pillars.

The eight roots are still operating.

Every time the Bone Baleful Intent makes a move, a stone pillar transmits its Principle to it.

Chen Changqing stopped attacking the Bone Baleful Intent itself.

He used the Drunken Immortal Moon-Gazing Step to bypass the attacks from three sides and head straight for the second stone pillar.

Gu Li quickly realized his purpose.

Stop him!

The White Bone Royal City moved, pressing down on the stone pillar.

The Poison Boy manipulates a purple-black centipede to block their escape route.

Chen Changqing raised his hand and threw a punch.

Heavenly Emperor Divine Fist, Starfall.

A golden fist imprint burst forth from the Sword Domain.

The White Bone Royal City was hit from the front.

The city wall of the royal city was dented on the spot.

Gu Li's Qi and Blood and qi surged from the Fist Force, and the bone blade in his hand flew out of his grasp.

Chen Changqing took advantage of the situation to approach the stone pillar.

The Poison Boy manipulated the centipede to bite his back.

Chen Changqing slashed out with his backhand.

The Immortal Execution Sword pierced the centipede's head.

The gray- Sword Light pierced through the poisonous insect's body.

The purplish-black centipede let out a miserable scream.

The human-shaped face on its body opened its mouth simultaneously, spitting out a large amount of poisonous blood.

Chen Changqing used his Pure Yang protective Dao light to block the poisonous blood, and continued to thrust his sword downwards.

The entire centipede was cut in two.

Poison Boy's internal Principle were damaged, and he spat out a mouthful of black blood.

You ruined my life-bound poisonous insect!

So what if it's destroyed?

Chen Changqing did not turn around.

He slashed at the second stone pillar with his sword.

The bone arm of the Bone Baleful Intent came crashing down from the side.

Chen Changqing raised his left hand.

The Three Extremes Origin Seal reappears.

The Mountain Seal suppressed the bone arm.

Water Seal mitigate the impact.

The Fire Seal burned along the bone arm.

The bone Bone Baleful Intent was scorched by the flames, leaving large scorch marks.

Chen Changqing brandished his sword with his right hand.

Click!

The second stone pillar broke.

The Principle governing Bone Baleful Intent weakened further.

At this moment, Blood Butcher suddenly made his move.

He did not attack Chen Changqing, nor did he attack Gu Li or Poison Boy.

Instead, he led two Rakshasa City Xiuzhan and retreated towards the exit.

He was holding the third command flag, clearly preparing to leave first.

"The people of Rakshasa City want to advance alone!"

Gu Li roared angrily.

Blood Butcher didn't even turn his head.

"The first round is just about who can get out alive."

"If you have the ability, then catch up with them."

The spatial rift has spread to the edge of the deep valley.

A gray passageway appeared in the distance.

That was the Spatial Gate to the Lightless Forbidden Land Wasteland.

The three Blood Butcher were extremely fast.

Gu Li did not continue the pursuit.

He knew that if he left now, Chen Changqing and the Poison Boy would survive.

Although the holders of the three command flags can advance, the rules only record the first three people who survive and leave.

If Blood Butcher leaves first, Gu Li might not have a chance.

"Poison Boy, kill Chen Changqing first!"

Gu Li's voice transmission.

"If we get his two command flags, all three of us will have a chance to advance."

Poison Boy understood this as well.

He raised his hand and tossed the Poison Cauldron into the air.

The Poison Cauldron rapidly expanded, transforming into a purplish-black mountain that pressed down upon Chen Changqing.

Gu Li then unleashed the White Bone Royal City, sealing off Chen Changqing's path.

The two attacked simultaneously, one on the left and one on the right.

Chen Changqing stopped in front of the third stone pillar.

He glanced at the Spatial Gate in the distance, then looked at the two command flags in his hand.

As long as he leaves, he can secure two spots for advancement.

However, the First Ghost General and another Dark Moon City Cultivator are still in the Secret Realm.

They had no command flag.

If I leave now, I might be the only one in Dark Moon City to advance.

The Dark Moon Ghost Lord is winning the first round.

Chen Changqing had promised to help her seize control of Heavenly Nether Abyss.

Therefore, he cannot simply leave on his own.

There's still time.

Chen Changqing put away the command flag.

He formed a hand seal with one hand, and nine Red-Gold Primordial Spirit phantoms appeared simultaneously behind him.

The Star Primordial Spirit transformed into three pillars of light, which fell into the Sword Domain.

The Twelve Primordial Spirits worked together to unleash their Law Power.

A powerful Sword Intent shot straight into the deep valley.

"Invincible Sword Domain."

The Sword Domain spread.

The White Bone Royal City was sliced in two by black and white Sword Qi.

The purplish-black Poison Cauldron was shrouded in Sword Domain, and countless cracks appeared on its surface.

Chen Changqing took a step forward and appeared in front of Gu Li.

Gu Li didn't have time to retreat.

Chen Changqing pressed his palm against his chest.

The Human Emperor Heaven-Suppressing Seal erupted.

The Principle armor on Gu Li shattered on the spot.

His body was pressed into the ground by the golden halo.

You can't kill me!

Gu Li his teeth and spoke.

"My father is the Bone Demon Heavenly Monarch!"

Chen Changqing continued to lower his palm.

"If your father comes, I will kill him too."

Boom!

Gu Li sternum was shattered.

His Primordial Spirit burst forth from his Sea of Consciousness, transforming into a tiny skeleton who fled into the distance.

Chen Changqing pointed his sword and made a sweeping motion.

A strand of sword light pierced through the void.

The Primordial Spirit of the white bone vanished on the spot.

A system notification sounded in my mind.

"Killed Half-Step Heavenly Monarch Cultivator, gained AFK Points..."

Chen Changqing withdrew his hand and turned to look at the Poison Boy.

The Poison Boy had already retreated a hundred feet away.

His Poison Cauldron was damaged, and his aura weakened.

"You killed Gu Li?"

The Poison Boy's voice was shrill.

"Now you."

Chen Changqing walked on air.

The Poison Boy took out a purple bone talisman and crushed it.

The talisman formed a layer of poisonous light to protect the body.

He turned and fled towards the Spatial Gate.

Chen Changqing raised his hand and grabbed.

The Spatial Laws solidified into an invisible cage.

The Poison Boy's body was frozen in mid-air.

He opened his mouth and spewed out his innate poisonous fire.

Chen Changqing raised his palm and pressed down.

The Taiqing Divine Light fell upon the poisonous fire.

The poisonous fire was quickly extinguished.

You can't kill me!

The Poison Boy struggled.

"My master is the Thousand Poisons Old Monster."

He will hunt you down to the ends of the earth!

"I'll go find him at Myriad Poison Ridge after I return from the Yama Heavenly Palace."

Chen Changqing clenched his five fingers.

The Poison Boy's body was forced back to its original form by spatial forces.

Just as he was about to end the Poison Boy's life with a single blow, a cry for help suddenly came from afar.

"Guest Chen!"

The First Ghost General burst forth from the spatial rift.

His injuries had not yet healed, and another Cultivator from Dark Moon City followed behind him.

The two were being chased by several White Bone Puppets.

One of the White Bone Puppets already possessed an aura approaching that of Half-Step Heavenly Monarch.

The giant axe in the hands of the First Ghost General was now only half intact.

"White Bone Territory still has a backup plan!"

Chen Changqing looked up.

Although Gu Li has been killed, the White Bone Royal City he summoned has not disappeared.

Deep within the royal city, a portal made of white bones is opening.

Dozens of White Bone Puppets emerged from the group and surrounded the two First Ghost Generals, attacking them.

This was a contingency plan left by Gu Li before his death.

Chen Changqing did not pursue the matter further with the Poison Boy.

He slapped the Poison Boy towards the altar with a palm strike.

The Poison Boy crashed into a broken stone pillar and died instantly!

Chen Changqing turned and charged toward the First Ghost General.

Invincible Sword Domain sweeps across the land.

Dozens of White Bone Puppets were simultaneously severed by the Sword Qi.

The First Ghost General and another Dark Moon City Cultivator finally escaped.

Where is the command flag?

The First Ghost General looked at Chen Changqing.

"I have two sides."

Chen Changqing raised his hand and pointed into the distance.

"The third one is in the hands of Rakshasa City."

The First Ghost General gritted his teeth.

"So what do we do now?"

"Come out with me."

The First Ghost General was stunned.

At this moment, the collapse of the Black-Blood Deep Valley accelerated.

Spatial rifts engulfed the altar.

The voice of the White-Robed Ghost Immortal came again.

"The last incense stick."

"All participants, leave the Lightless Forbidden Land immediately."

Chen Changqing put away the two command flags and, leading the First Ghost General and another Dark Moon City Cultivator, sped towards the Spatial Gate.

Behind them, the Bone Baleful Intent broke through the broken stone pillar and chased after the group.

Its body was already broken.

However, after all nine stone pillars broke, the ancient phantom below the deep valley fully awakened.

A gigantic hand emerged from the bottom of the Black-Blood Deep Valley.

Wherever his palm passed, the Bone Baleful Intent was directly grasped in his hand.

The next moment, the Primordial Remnant Will crushed the entire Bone Baleful Intent.

The Bone Baleful Intent turned into countless bone dust particles, which fell back into the deep valley.

The ancient, ethereal figure looked up at Chen Changqing, who was leaving.

Hundreds of miles apart.

Chen Changqing still felt an invisible pressure bearing down on him.

The Twelve Primordial Spirits operated simultaneously.

He glanced back.

The ancient phantom did not pursue them.

It simply raised its hand and wrote an ancient Ghost Script above the Black-Blood Deep Valley.

Chen Changqing couldn't understand that Ghost Script.

However, the system has already provided the identification results.

"Residual will from the Primordial Battlefield detected."

"The target has recorded the host's aura."

Chen Changqing withdrew his gaze.

"Let's get out of here first."

He led the three of them through the Spatial Gate.

The next moment, twelve contestants emerged from the Blackstone Ancient Gate.

The first to leave, Blood Butcher, stood outside the ancient gate, holding the third command flag.

Chen Changqing followed closely behind.

Behind him followed the First Ghost General and another Cultivator from Dark Moon City.

As soon as Chen Changqing stepped out of the ancient gate, the four lords and the White-Robed Ghost Immortal looked over at the same time.
