Chapter 315

"If this continues, we will all die!"

Someone stepped out and said angrily; in the face of this life and death, they wanted to fight Ji Ji Qingqing to the death.

Ji Ji Qingqing's face was icy, but she also knew that blocking them would not solve any problems, so she said:

"If you want to live, help me bring them up."

"Bring them up? Isn't that seeking death? They definitely can't be saved; they are too far away!" Someone said angrily.

"If they die, then we all die together!"

Ji Ji Qingqing did not back down at all and could only force them.

If she were the only one here, she would have long ago rushed down to help them regardless of her own safety, but once she left this place, Mother Ning, who was in the Dao Heart Realm, would not be able to intimidate these people.

By then, the Abyss Heaven Stele would be pushed over, and everyone would die.

"Don't you want to live yourself?!"

Someone couldn't help but roar: "At least we can live ourselves; why sacrifice everyone?"

"Either bring them up, or die together!"

Ji Ji Qingqing's eyes were cold, and she did not argue; at this moment, any argument was a waste of time, and she only gave them a choice.

Everyone was angry, but no one took action; this chain was swaying so violently that they didn't dare to step on it easily.

During their brief exchange, suddenly, a violent tremor came from below.

Prison Heaven Island was pulled crooked again, and they saw the tentacles in the abyss pulling toward Li Hao's chain; one tentacle grabbed the chain, and two others directly slapped toward Li Hao and his companion.

Li Hao's face changed drastically, he let out a low roar, exploded into his divine power state, and climbed at full speed.

But the suction force in the Demon Saint's mouth was like a black hole, capable of easily pulling up mountain peaks; if Li Hao's strength hadn't been strong enough, he would have long ago been sucked into her mouth.

"Go!"

Li Hao roared, pulling Ji Yunyue, and sprinted forward at full speed.

It's just that they were still over a thousand miles away from Prison Heaven Island; under normal circumstances, they could easily arrive in a few minutes, but now it felt as remote as ascending to heaven.

"Child, don't worry about me anymore, you go on your own."

Ji Yunyue suddenly let go of Li Hao's palm, her hands tightly hugging a chain ring of the Abyss Heaven Lock, and said loudly to Li Hao:

"Don't look back, keep going forward; as long as you hold on, the Third Ancestor will definitely notice the movement here and will come to help!"

Li Hao felt his hand loosen and couldn't help but be stunned; looking back at the old woman who had always been kind, with a face full of determination and encouraging eyes, he felt his heart being struck.

A momentary surge of emotion emerged, but he suppressed it; he knew that if he looked back, he would completely let her down.

Li Hao gritted his teeth tightly and climbed forward at full speed, his speed doubling.

Clatter~~!

Suddenly, a violent sound of chain vibration rang out.

They saw the blood lotus that was about to rush out of the abyss suddenly pause, as if it had been pulled down, and behind it appeared chains, all extremely thick and similar to the Abyss Heaven Lock.

These chains bound it, making it unable to break free from the abyss.

The blood lotus seemed angry, waving more thousand-foot tentacles, pulling the chains, and attacking Li Hao.

The tentacles slapped against the chain, sweeping across; Li Hao hurriedly climbed to the other side of the chain, hid in the gap of the chain ring, and executed the Supreme Technique to increase his own evasion.

Although he didn't know if it would work, there was no other way at this moment.

The foul-smelling tentacles whistled past, brushing against Li Hao, but did not cause any damage. Li Hao breathed a slight sigh of relief and then continued to climb along the chain.

On Prison Heaven Island, everyone watched the island sinking more and more severely and finally couldn't hold back; someone roared: "Let's go together, even if we die, it's better than dying in the hands of a Demon Saint."

"Go, push over the Abyss Heaven Stele!"

More than a dozen people exploded with their remaining aura simultaneously and killed toward Ji Ji Qingqing.

Ji Ji Qingqing's face changed drastically; she hadn't thought of a solution yet, and these people had no patience left, and this moment of life-and-death speed didn't give her much opportunity to think of a strategy.

"Unless I die, no one is allowed to push over this stele!"

Ji Ji Qingqing shouted angrily.

She exploded her divine soul and killed with her sword.

On the island swaying from the chain, a great battle broke out; Ji Ji Qingqing fought with them, executed her own unique skills, did not spare her energy consumption at all, took action one after another, slashed two people down, and then knocked away seven others.

She wore divine flames on her cloud garment, like a fierce female general, and actually guarded the Abyss Heaven Stele.

Below the island, the Demon Saint was approaching; on the chain, people were climbing and fleeing, while on the island, a great battle of more than a dozen people was taking place.

"No one is allowed to get close!"

Ji Ji Qingqing's aura gradually weakened, but she still had her Undecaying Power unused; she retreated to guard in front of the Abyss Heaven Stele, looking at the others with eyes like cold stars.

"A group of ridiculous fools."

At this time, the Old Madman lying in the distance laughed loudly: "Originally, everyone could live, but you insisted on seeking death. Don't you realize the abnormality of this Demon Saint? It was long ago wiped of its consciousness by the Holy Ancestor; what is suppressed here now is just its shell."

"Otherwise, if it really took action, there would be no room for you to fight here; everyone would have long been dead."

While everyone was panting and adjusting, hearing this loud laughter, they felt it was harsh, but the other party's words made them feel solemn.

Indeed, although this Demon Saint pulled the chains, this was a Demon Saint; if she really took action, they would all die in an instant.

"Is it dead?"

Someone said tremblingly, asking a question they themselves felt was absurd.

But the existence of the Saint Realm had long exceeded the scope of their understanding.

Many people looked at the Old Madman; they all knew that the other party had lived for a very long time and was a figure from the Third Ancestor's period.

Seeing everyone looking over, the Old Madman laughed instead, said no more, just had a teasing and playful look on his face, as if he didn't care at all that the swaying Prison Heaven Island would be swallowed by the Demon Saint at any time.

Seeing his expression, everyone felt angry in their hearts, but the other party's words gave them a reminder; someone noticed that this Demon Saint had chains all over her body and could not break free from the abyss.

"I have a way!"

Suddenly, someone shouted excitedly.

Being able to become a criminal meant they possessed intelligence not inferior to ordinary people; they had just taken the wrong path.

"We don't need to push over all three Abyss Heaven Steles; we only need to push over two. In this way, relying on Prison Heaven Island's own buoyancy laws, it will pull that Abyss Heaven Lock into a straight line. This Demon Saint's body is not long enough; at most, only one or two tentacles can reach it, and she may not be able to pull it down!"

That person said excitedly.

Everyone ran to the edge of the island and looked out, watching that terrifying, stunningly beautiful human face and that enchanting blood lotus.

Indeed, the other party had stopped rising; she was pulled by the chains and was struggling continuously, but the chains tethering her flesh were also fixing her in the very center of the abyss, causing her flesh to have to stretch to the extreme toward the surroundings to touch the rock walls at the edge of the abyss.

If only one Abyss Heaven Lock pulled Prison Heaven Island, it would present a straight posture, and Prison Heaven Island would also deviate from the center of the abyss and appear outside the abyss, perpendicular to the Abyss Heaven Peak that looked like a wooden stake at the other end of the chain below!

By then, the parts of this Demon Saint's flesh that could touch the chain would be even fewer, and she might not be able to pull Prison Heaven Island down.

In this way, they would have a way to live!

Others understood that person's line of thinking, and their eyes instantly brightened; indeed, this was a good way.

If this way still didn't work, then they could only abandon this last Abyss Heaven Lock, let Prison Heaven Island ascend to the sky, and accept the scorching of the Blazing Sun Holy Fire.

Ji Ji Qingqing was stunned, and upon hearing this, her heart also breathed a sigh of relief; if they pushed over the other two Abyss Heaven Steles, it was indeed a way.

"Now, you have no reason to block us again."

Someone looked at Ji Ji Qingqing, fearing she would go crazy again and really want to perish together with them.

"You go ahead."

Ji Ji Qingqing said.

Seeing her loosen her stance, the others all breathed a sigh of relief and scattered quickly, rushing toward the other two Abyss Heaven Steles on the island.

Mother Ning, who was standing beside her, turned her head to look, but suddenly noticed two figures climbing rapidly on another chain.

"What is that?"

Mother Ning's divine soul appeared behind her, her vision enhanced, and she immediately saw clearly that there were actually people on that Abyss Heaven Lock.

Ji Ji Qingqing heard her words, and her divine soul also stared intently; upon looking, her pupils contracted, and she was stunned.

On that chain, about three hundred miles away from the island, two figures were climbing upward with difficulty.

They were extremely close to the island; of the thousands of miles of Abyss Heaven Lock, they had already climbed more than half, and only the last tenth of the journey remained.

The suction force they received seemed not to be that strong; although the climbing was slow, they would be able to climb onto Prison Heaven Island in another four or five minutes.

It's just that Ji Ji Qingqing recognized both of the faces of those two people.

When she saw them clearly, she felt as if her brain had roared, as if something had burst open, and there was a brief blankness in her mind.

Li Li Tiangang! Her husband!

Ji Shen Yunqing, her uncle!

Ji Ji Qingqing was like being struck by lightning, somewhat dazed.

But only a second later, she suddenly reacted, her divine soul soared into the sky, and she rushed toward the Abyss Heaven Stele at the chain.

"Stop!!"

Sword light whistled over and slashed in front of the four people who were about to touch the Abyss Heaven Stele.

These four people saw Ji Ji Qingqing go back on her word and were all furious: "Are you crazy?!"

"Wait for them to come up."

Ji Ji Qingqing's divine soul said with a trembling voice.

Her divine soul flew down rapidly, guarding in front of this Abyss Heaven Stele, blocking with her sword, using her back as a city wall.

Several people were furious and said: "If we keep two Abyss Heaven Locks, it's useless; that Demon Saint will still drag us down!"

"Give them some time."

Ji Ji Qingqing said, gritting her teeth.

Her true self looked at the two figures climbing desperately and with difficulty on the chain, and tears streamed from her eye sockets.

She never expected that Li Li Tiangang would also appear here.

Previously, Mother Ning said Li Hao came alone, and she felt surprised; knowing Li Li Tiangang's strong sense of responsibility, how could he let his son come alone? She thought there was a hidden story, but now she knew that he had also come; it was just that Mother Ning's information was outdated.

"You, why are you all so stupid..."

Ji Ji Qingqing was tearful; she had clearly warned him not to step into the Ji family until he had broken through the Four Standing Realm, but now, she could tell at a glance that Li Li Tiangang's cultivation was only in the Ni Ming Realm.

Without a doubt, the other party had come to the Ji family with a determination to die.

Just like back then, when the other party shielded her behind him, confronting the whole hall.

A general who strictly followed the rules broke his precedent for her for the first time, breaking the discipline he followed; this was also the reason she was determined to marry the other party and follow him for a lifetime.

Bang!!

Suddenly, Prison Heaven Island shook violently. They saw an Abyss Heaven Stele being pulled out, pushed over, and thrown down from Prison Heaven Island.

Falling down together with it was the indestructible Abyss Heaven Lock, which, under the pull of two tentacles, fell into the abyss and smashed onto the Demon Saint's blood lotus.

Losing the pull of one Abyss Heaven Lock, the island tilted instantly, and the blood lotus seemed to be angered; the tentacles erupted suddenly, pulling the thousands-of-miles-long Abyss Heaven Lock, causing the entire island to plummet rapidly.

"Not good!"

Everyone on the island had a sense of weightlessness as their feet left the ground, and except for the Old Madman, everyone was horrified.

On the chain, Li Li Tiangang and Ji Shen Yunqing, who were climbing desperately, felt the rapidly falling chain and were also terrified, exploding with all their strength, climbing madly upward.

In their eyes, there was only the island tens of thousands of meters away, and the large stele entwined by the chain.

Although the distance was far, their vision was extraordinary, and they could already see the situation in front of the large stele.

"Is that, Ji Qingqing?"

Suddenly, Li Li Tiangang saw the divine soul in front of the large stele, paused, and then was astonished.

Although it was only a back view, he could never recognize it wrongly; that was the wife he thought of day and night.

At this moment, his wife seemed to be confronting someone, guarding the large stele entwined by the chain.

He immediately reacted; she was guarding this line of life for him!

"Ji Qingqing!!"

Li Li Tiangang roared, climbing upward desperately.

And at the other end, Li Hao was all red-gold; even though the suction force in the Demon Saint's mouth was astonishing, his movement technique was also extremely rapid; the original thousand-mile journey was shortened to only two or three hundred miles in the blink of an eye.

Almost there.

Li Hao's eyes were red-gold; under the influence of the abyss laws on this Abyss Heaven Lock, power could not be leaked, and naturally, the divine soul could not be executed, but with his divine power and naked eye, he could also see the situation hundreds of miles away clearly.

At the end of the chain entanglement, a woman's back was guarding there, her whole body covered in divine flames, heroic and spirited.

Li Hao recognized at a glance that it was his mother.

His heart shook, and the words he heard in his swaddling clothes couldn't help but echo in his mind: "No matter what happens in the future, Mother will stand in front of you, and will never let anyone hurt you..."

That promise from fifteen years ago, she seemed to have fulfilled it.

With her thin body, she guarded the end of that chain! Li Hao's eye sockets were slightly red, he roared and exploded with all his strength, increased his speed again, and rushed over at full speed.

But just at this moment, the chain behind him shook violently and was pulled down fiercely.

The Demon Saint seemed to have gone mad, actually erupting with extremely terrifying power, and the speed at which the chain was pulled down increased significantly.

Li Hao felt as if he were about to fall into the abyss, but in the moment of his brief distraction, he roared and rushed out again, the Heaven and Earth Traceless Technique combined with the attribute amplification of many illustrated books, rushing toward the end of the chain at full speed.

The Demon Saint's tentacles chased behind, and Li Hao was like racing against death.

And on Prison Heaven Island, everyone saw this rapid descent and were all panicked and desperate.

"Quick, push over the Abyss Heaven Stele, or it will be too late!"

"There will be no time left!!"

Others couldn't care about anything else and rushed toward Ji Ji Qingqing angrily.

"Wait a little longer, give them some more time!"

Ji Ji Qingqing said hurriedly, but seeing that everyone was rushing over regardless, she had no choice but to explode with her divine soul and fight with all her might.

"Don't force me to burn my divine soul and execute the Dao Domain!"

One of the old men said angrily.

His whole body emitted a transcendent aura; he was shockingly a Taiping Dao Realm powerhouse, and at this moment, he ignited a bit of his divine soul, releasing a powerful aura.

He had been imprisoned here for too long, and his power had long been exhausted, which was why he kept a low profile.

Plus, his original crime was colluding with demons to assassinate clansmen and seize treasures, and his crime was serious; he only saved his life by relying on the glory of his ancestors, and his descendants were forbidden to visit him, causing his power to be almost completely depleted over the years, leaving only his physical strength.

Ji Ji Qingqing saw the old man's furious appearance, her face changed greatly; if the other party really burned his divine soul, even if he could only erupt with the power of the Dao Realm for an instant, she would not be his opponent.

"Wait, give them some more time!"

Ji Ji Qingqing said hurriedly: "Among them is a Dao Seed of our Ji family; that is the hope of our Ji family!"

"I don't care about any Dao Seed; whoever doesn't let me live must die!"

"That's right, we are all imprisoned here; what does the Ji family's honor or disgrace have to do with us? It must be that Dao Seed who provoked the Demon Saint!"

Everyone said angrily one after another.

Ji Ji Qingqing's face was pale; looking at the increasingly vigorous Dao Realm aura on the old man, she could only lower her head and beg:

"I beg you elders, give them some more time; I will kowtow to you!"

Saying this, she knelt on the ground, knocking her head on the ground with a thudding sound.

"Knowing we are elders, do you still want to drag us to die together?"

"What's the use of kowtowing? I don't want to die, get lost!!"

Everyone was angry and did not accept Ji Ji Qingqing's pleading, only wanting to live, at least to strive for a chance at reincarnation.

"Move aside, otherwise everyone will be buried with you, and you won't be able to save anyone!"

The old man's face was gloomy; his divine soul was burning, and if he really executed the Dao Realm, his life would be considered lost here. He stepped out and said: "If you can't bear to part with this one, we will go push over that one; you choose one, immediately!"

Amidst his angry roar, the chain vibrated, and Prison Heaven Island shook violently, descending even more rapidly.

Ji Ji Qingqing looked at the old man's angry face, her heart feeling as if it were twitching, tearing with pain.

How could she not know that if she dragged it out any longer, everyone might lose their lives.

But how to choose? On one side was her husband, on the other side was her son.

"Good, I will choose."

She stood up, her movements slow, trying to buy a little more time for them.

The old man seemed to see through her intention and roared: "Choose quickly!"

"Quick, it's going to be too late!"

Others were also emotionally agitated and pressed forward.

Ji Ji Qingqing's face was bloodless, only feeling as if heavy hammers were striking her heart, and the blood in her whole body seemed to have frozen.

She turned her head to look and saw a red-gold figure rushing rapidly on that Abyss Heaven Lock.

It was less than a hundred miles away.

With her own naked eye, she could see the youth's face.

Mother and son who hadn't met for fifteen years, at this moment, their gazes met, and they saw each other clearly.

Ji Ji Qingqing looked at the handsome youth; was this the son she had given birth to?

She was somewhat dazed; hadn't seen him for more than a decade, had the child in the swaddling clothes grown so big? Divine power state, no wonder he could become a heaven-proud one of the Ji family...

Large teardrops surged from her eye sockets; she covered her mouth, her heart tearing like a knife.

"It's too late, push it over quickly!"

Others watched Prison Heaven Island being pulled and tilted as it descended, and were all shocked and angry, shouting.

They swarmed up and pushed toward that Abyss Heaven Stele.

But this time, Ji Ji Qingqing just covered her mouth and didn't take any action.

Li Hao, who was climbing upward with all his might, saw this scene and couldn't help but be stunned.

Why... not block it?

His thoughts seemed to pause for a moment, but the next moment, he woke up suddenly, and in his panic, he quickly summoned the Merit Treasury.

He saw golden light quickly emerging from the gold paper in his palm, and Li Hao quickly chose to exchange for one chance of reversing fate.

Soon, his merit decreased by ten thousand points.

He felt a strange power pouring into his body; he tried to release it, and this power also flowed out of his body.

This was an extremely special feeling, neither like physical strength nor like immortal power, but a feeling that was difficult to explain.

When that fate-reversing power flowed away, Li Hao hurriedly looked at the Abyss Heaven Stele being pushed.

But he saw that the group of people were still pushing, the Abyss Heaven Stele was pulled out, and no accident occurred.

That woman was also still kneeling, not having taken any action.

He suddenly thought of a question, and it was instantly as if cold water had poured over him, chilling him from head to toe.

Ji Ji Yunge had said that the Dao-Hearing Realm could obscure the heavenly secrets, making it impossible for the Ni Ming Realm to execute the chance of reversing fate, and the special laws on this abyss made it impossible even for the Dao Domain to be executed; that fate-reversing power... was probably also obscured outside.

In other words, reversing fate was ineffective.

Bang! The Abyss Heaven Stele was finally pulled out and pushed away, falling down.

The chain under Li Hao's feet instantly changed from being taut and straight to becoming soft.

He reached upward with all his might, but the entire chain lost its load-bearing power and fell along with the Abyss Heaven Stele.

He held his palm high; the twin flowers in his hand were fresh and dripping, but he would never have the chance to send them to that island again.

Li Hao stared blankly at the falling Abyss Heaven Stele, saw the woman suddenly stand up and rush toward another place, and following the direction she was running, he saw two figures climbing upward more than ten miles away on the other side of Prison Heaven Island.

One he recognized.

The other he also recognized.

Was it him?

Li Hao was stunned.

Suddenly, he seemed to understand everything.

Just like fifteen years ago, when that imperial decree was sent to the Divine General's Mansion, that woman loosened the infant who was only a hundred days old in the swaddling clothes, turned around, put on her armor, followed her husband to the battlefield, and rushed to the battlefield hundreds of thousands of miles away.

Now, fifteen years later.

She was still making the same choice...

The huge Abyss Heaven Stele smashed down on his head, fiercely striking Li Hao's face, his nose bridge, and his body, blood spraying wildly...

His whole body was smashed down heavily, and the small twin red flower in his hand also loosened; the petals fell off, like broken butterfly wings, slowly drifting in the air.

Along with the falling of the Abyss Heaven Stele, Li Hao's whole body seemed to lose all strength, and his body was directly dragged, falling toward the Demon Saint's mouth below.

He had tried his best to run past the Demon Saint's tentacles, but he hadn't been able to dodge the large stele that smashed down on his head.

The tentacles that had grabbed the chain were now all waving toward him.

And losing the restraint of this Abyss Heaven Lock, Prison Heaven Island, like a bird spreading its wings, immediately flew up; its own floating laws pulled the only remaining Abyss Heaven Lock, quickly changing from a steep seventy degrees to a vertical ninety degrees.

Bang! The thick chain and the Abyss Heaven Stele, carrying Li Hao's body, fell into the abyss.
