Chapter 265

The Guiding Envoy smiled, looked around, and said: "Although this floating continent is located above Chang'an Prefecture, its spatial nodes have been squeezed and sealed."

"If it weren't for the Yinshan Wonder Realm, you really wouldn't be able to get out."

While speaking.

It folded its arms, and its figure dissipated into points of light.

The next second.

The great power of the Yinshan Wonder Realm descended!

Jiang Jian stood where he was, only feeling an irresistible pulling force coming from the dimensional space, surging toward him!

Silently.

His figure disappeared abruptly, leaving no trace behind.

Mount Shengshan returned to silence once again.

At the same time.

In a corner of the Academy World.

Deep within a volcano, scorching red magma flowed.

Floating above the magma was an ancient stone platform.

A slender figure sat upon it, quietly cultivating.

Suddenly.

A black-clad figure swept into the volcano, appeared before the stone platform, and knelt halfway.

"Little Highness."

He lowered his head, his tone respectful.

On the stone platform.

Classmate Nie Zheng's slender figure suddenly opened her eyes.

Deep within her pupils, azure whirlpools rotated.

As the spiritual breath surged around her, it emitted an extremely icy aura.

It blocked all the heat from the magma outside.

The icy barrier formed by the spiritual breath was like a filter.

At every moment, it was absorbing the spiritual energy of the earth to cultivate herself.

"Didn't I tell you?"

The young lady lowered her gaze and spoke coldly, "Do not come down to disturb me before I break through to the Divine Palace Realm."

The black-clad man's figure trembled; he lowered his head even further and whispered: "The person Little Highness asked me to keep an eye on has failed his realm breakthrough."

Upon hearing this.

The young lady's expression changed drastically; she stared fixedly at the black-clad man, her heart aching, and asked word by word: "Are you saying he is dead?"

In this instant.

She had no time to think about why Jiang Jian had failed his breakthrough.

The only thought that arose in Nie Zheng's heart

was to use family connections to go to the Earth Realm immediately and bring Jiang Jian back!

Nowadays, the rules of the Earth Realm have changed.

Any living being in the four realms of Earth and Moon,

after their death, would not disappear but would definitely become a dead person and fall into the Earth Realm.

"Little Highness, I haven't finished speaking yet."

Seeing her like this.

The black-clad man couldn't help but tremble with fear and hurriedly explained, "Although the breakthrough failed, he is not dead yet!"

Nie Zheng smoothed her skirt and stood up, looking coldly at the black-clad man without speaking.

Just a moment ago.

Hearing this news, her heart was in chaos, and she couldn't think calmly at all.

Her subconscious reaction was to refuse to believe it.

Subsequently, she thought that the Nie family guards would absolutely not deceive her.

Following closely behind

was the feeling that her heart was being gripped by a great force, nearly suffocating her.

At this very moment.

Hearing that Jiang Jian had failed his breakthrough but had not died,

Nie Zheng forced herself to regain her composure, rubbed her wrists, and managed to remain calm, saying: "Continue."

"Yes, Little Highness."

The black-clad man responded respectfully and continued.

"According to my observation, his meridians and acupoints have all suffered heavy damage."

"But these areas, very strangely, have not completely collapsed and are still maintaining basic functions."

"After he left Mount Shengshan,"

"the direction he went was the Li Hai Long Gong."

The black-clad man carefully raised his head and stole a glance at Nie Zheng's expression, "Then I hurried back to report to Little Highness."

He had concealed some things from Nie Zheng.

For example.

He had followed Jiang Jian to the Li Hai Long Gong.

And had seen with his own eyes

Jiang Jian and that young lady in the plain skirt entering the Autumn Water Palace together.

But these things,

the black-clad man dared not say at all.

"Go immediately and invite him here."

Nie Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "My spiritual essence cultivation is at a critical moment and I cannot leave."

The black-clad man hesitated slightly and asked: "If he is unwilling to come, what should I do?"

Previously.

Nie Zheng had given instructions

for him to hide in the shadows and protect Jiang Jian.

The degree of importance she placed on him was evident.

This also made the black-clad man ask clearly about everything regarding Jiang Jian, not daring to act on his own.

Nie Zheng said expressionlessly: "A failed breakthrough, even if one barely survives, will inevitably result in a backlash against the soul."

"You find Jiang Jian."

"First tell him that I have something to discuss with him."

Speaking of this.

The young lady lowered her eyelids slightly.

Her expression was gloomy.

"If he refuses,"

"you tell him the second sentence."

"I have a way to heal his soul."

"If you say this, he will definitely come."

Below the stone platform.

The magma rolled slowly, occasionally making gurgling sounds.

The black-clad man responded: "I understand, Little Highness."

After these words fell.

He turned around, and his figure dissipated into light.

He left the volcano in an instant.

"Jiang Jian, you actually failed your breakthrough."

The young lady raised her head slightly, her expression complex.

"Fortunately."

"As long as you are not dead, it is a good thing."

Only until this moment

did she truly breathe a sigh of relief.

But at the same time.

Many doubts arose in Nie Zheng's heart.

Regarding Jiang Jian's cultivation situation,

she could be considered very knowledgeable.

According to his cultivation foundation,

even achieving a peerless Divine Palace was quite possible.

A matter like failing a realm breakthrough,

without any accidents, would almost never happen to him.
