Nie Pianer staggered. Her eyes were sometimes clear and sometimes confused. Her face was twisted and she looked like she was in great pain.
She said that they could talk, but she rang the bell again, causing Lin Xuan to suffer another heavy blow.
"Pfft!"
Lin Xuan's body swayed and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He sneered with difficulty, "Little girl, you're not sincere enough! Then let's see who will have the last laugh! "
Roar — —
There was a roar.
The demon condensed again and rushed down, fiercely pouncing on Nie Pianer, repeating the same action.
The demon was gradually becoming numb. It realized that it could not eat Nie Pianer, but constantly harass her, making it impossible for her to control her inner demon.
"Damn bastard! I, Nie Pianer, swear that I will make you regret what you did today … until you die! "
Nie Pianer was in a difficult situation, both internally and externally. She hated Lin Xuan even more.
Clang …
Clang …
Time gradually passed. The bell, the roar of the demon, and the curses kept ringing, but they gradually weakened.
Lin Xuan and Nie Pianer gradually reached their limits. Lin Xuan had to maintain the operation of the Demon Suppressing Pagoda and resist the power of the Wind Listening Bell. He consumed a lot of his essence, qi, and spirit, but he could not draw divine power from the earth. When he ran out of pills, he could not continue, and he already had thoughts of retreating.
Nie Pianer's situation was even worse. Under the influence of the Demon Summoning Sound, her inner demon became stronger than ever. It fought fiercely with her will, wanting to take control.
Due to the constant interference of the demons, she was unable to fully devote herself to the battle against her inner demons. As a result, she was already on the verge of Qi Deviation. At any moment, she could miss a step and be consigned to eternal damnation.
At this moment, Nie Pianer's heart was filled with regret. She regretted underestimating the enemy and falling into Lin Xuan's Evil Suppressing Pagoda, resulting in her current sorry state.
At the same time, she had to admit that she had always underestimated Lin Xuan. This guy with heaven-defying luck was indeed not easy to deal with.
Seeing that her situation was getting more and more dangerous, Nie Pianer finally decided to admit defeat.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Lin Xuan! I, Nie Pianer, admit defeat! The Wind Chime Bell is yours! Remove it, remove your Devil Suppressing Pagoda! "
"Hmm?"
Lin Xuan's blurry eyes suddenly brightened up. He asked cautiously, "Is that true?"
Nie Pianer did not answer for a long time, because it was getting harder and harder for her to control herself. Her face was sometimes pale and bloodless, sometimes surging with a black aura, constantly changing.
After ten breaths of time, Nie Pianer finally opened her beautiful eyes. She was dripping with sweat as she said with great difficulty, "I, Nie Pianer, always keep my words. I never go back on my words!"
"Alright! I'll trust you this time! I'll count to three, and you and I will stop at the same time! "Lin Xuan said.
If Nie Pianer could sincerely admit defeat and keep her promise, he would be more than happy to do so.
After all, if Nie Pianer lost control, it might not be a good thing for him. At that time, he might have to face an even stronger Nie Pianer.
"One …"
"Two …"
"Three!"
Lin Xuan shouted three, but Nie Pianer did not move.
Of course, Lin Xuan did not remove his Devil Suppressing Pagoda.
This was not because Nie Pianer was deliberately playing tricks, but because she was already somewhat helpless.
Lin Xuan could not help but secretly frown, feeling a great headache.
Suddenly, heaven and earth shook, and the golden light disappeared. The Wind Chime Bell that covered the sky had shrunk to the size of a human head, floating above Nie Pianer's head, slowly rotating.
Nie Pianer sat cross-legged on the ground, on the verge of collapse. She anxiously said, "Lin Xuan! I did it, it's your turn! If you dare to play tricks, I guarantee that you will regret it … "
At that moment, Lin Xuan immediately fused with the earth after breaking free from the restraints of the Wind Listener Bell. The boundless power of the earth surged over, filling his body and rapidly replenishing his energy.
In the blink of an eye, he had recovered thirty percent of his strength, and held the absolute initiative.
At least, that was what it looked like on the surface.
However, Lin Xuan did not plan to play tricks. This was not because he was protective of Nie Pianer, but because he did not have the confidence to kill Nie Pianer.
Nie Pianer seemed to be unable to turn the situation around, but it did not mean that she did not have the ability to perish together with him.
Many times, when a person was in a desperate situation, it was also the most dangerous time for him. In desperation, the destructive power he could cause could be beyond everyone's expectations.
Especially when Nie Pianer's martial fate aura did not have a trace of gray. This undoubtedly meant that it was not time for her to die.
After pondering for a while, Lin Xuan immediately removed the Devil Suppressing Pagoda with his mind.
At the same time, he sank into the ground, using his fastest speed to gather the earth energy and recover his strength.
On the other side, as the Devil Suppressing Pagoda disappeared, the demon-summoning chant disappeared. Nie Pianer's raging desires gradually weakened, and her rationality returned. Finally, she completely suppressed her inner demons, allowing her to regain control of her body.
Boom!
Nie Pianer's slender body shook, and the majestic aura of the Transcendent realm spread in all directions. She tapped her feet and rose into the air, reaching a hundred meters in the air. She looked down at the ground from above, her gaze uncertain, and hatred and murderous intent intertwined.
At this moment, Lin Xuan had already sunk fifteen kilometers into the ground.
At this depth, even with Nie Pianer's strength, it would be difficult for her to cause any real harm to him.
Nie Pianer hesitated for a while, but did not attack in the end.
"Lin Xuan, I admit defeat this time! But next time, I will definitely make you pay back a thousand times! "
Nie Pianer said through gritted teeth. Then, she waved her hand, and the Wind Chime above her head suddenly turned into a ray of golden light, shooting towards the ground.
Puff —
The Wind Chime Bell sank into the earth like an arrow, burrowing deep into the earth before finally stopping ten meters in front of Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the Wind Chime Bell nearby, a faint smile tugging at his lips.
"This girl is quite arrogant. Too bad it's hard to take back what's in my, Lin Xuan's, hands. "
Lin Xuan retrieved the Wind Chime Bell and floated to the ground.
Nie Pianer had already left, taking Guo Nu, Yu Changfeng, and the others with her.
"Master, are you alright?"
"Master, did you win?"
"Nie Pianer really left the Wind Chime Bell behind?"
Shen Yukun, Tu He, Feng Nu, and the others hurried over when they saw that the battle was over.
When they saw the exquisite golden bell in Lin Xuan's hand, they couldn't help but be astonished.
They didn't expect that Lin Xuan would not only defeat Nie Pianer, but also win a supreme-grade Dao Weapon. This made them very envious, and at the same time, made them respect Lin Xuan even more.
Lin Xuan smiled faintly and said, "Let's go. We'll leave this place and find a safe place to rest and recuperate!"
He mounted King Cobra and led the group out of the mist-filled ancient forest.
After that, Lin Xuan didn't rush back to Dark Ice Valley to scheme against the Hunting Rat Emperor.
The battle with Nie Pianer earlier had not only drained him greatly, but also severely injured him. Whether it was his body or his spirit, they were both very weak.
If he didn't take care to recuperate, there might be hidden injuries that would affect his future potential.
Two hours later, Lin Xuan and the others had already walked out of the ancient forest and came to a hilly area that looked more normal. There were many low-level demons living around.
Shen Yukun and the others killed all the demons within a five-kilometer radius, opened up a cave, and began to quietly recuperate.
As for Lin Xuan, he sank into the ground again.
He first spent six hours to heal the hidden injuries in his body. Then, he used another sixteen hours to absorb the power of the earth to completely replenish his depleted energy, allowing himself to return to peak condition.
Finally, he took out the Wind Chime Bell.
The Wind Chime Bell's body was only the size of a human head. After losing its owner, its luster became much dimmer. The Dao patterns on its surface flowed and flickered with a faint golden light.
Lin Xuan had thoroughly experienced the power of this supreme-grade Dao Weapon.
If Nie Pianer hadn't spent most of her energy on suppressing her inner demons and used less than ten percent of her strength to activate the Wind Chime Bell, he probably would have been reduced to ashes by the bell.
According to Lin Xuan's estimation, although they were both supreme-grade Dao Weapons, the Wind Chime Bell's power was far above the Seven Kills Shao Feng Sword. It was probably only half a step away from being a supreme-grade Dao Weapon.
Of course, although the Wind Chime Bell was powerful, its most powerful function was not for battle, but for eavesdropping.
It was said that the Qianwu Emperor back then could eavesdrop on the world at any time through the Wind Chime Bell. There wasn't a single official in the entire Daqian dynasty that could deceive him.
This also allowed the imperial court to be clear, allowing the world to prosper and the people to live in peace. This was the foundation of the Daqian dynasty that lasted for a thousand years.
It could be said that the Wind Chime Bell was the true treasure of the Daqian dynasty.
It was impossible for Lin Xuan to not be surprised that Nie Pianer was actually willing to let go of such a treasure.
However, regardless of whether Nie Pianer had left behind a secret weapon or not, Lin Xuan didn't plan to give up on the Wind Chime Bell.
He extended his spiritual power into the Wind Chime Bell and searched for a while. However, he gradually frowned.
What surprised him was that the Wind Chime Bell, a supreme-grade Dao Weapon, actually didn't have an artifact spirit. This went against common sense.
However, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing that it didn't have an artifact spirit.
He cast aside the doubts in his heart and adjusted his breathing slightly. He began to use the Blood Refinement Technique to try and make the Wind Chime Bell recognize him as its master …
…
At the peak of a mountain, the wind howled and the clouds hurried.
Slowly, Nie Tong 'er stopped her cultivation and breathed out a long breath of air, which pierced through a huge mountain fifty miles away.
She opened her beautiful eyes and a cold glint flashed through them. She said indifferently, "Yu Changfeng, why are you looking for me?"
A thousand meters away, Yu Changfeng was pacing back and forth anxiously. When he heard Nie Pianer's summons, he immediately became overjoyed. He hurried over and said hesitantly, "Protector Nie, I just don't understand …"
"You don't understand why I'm giving the Wind Chime Bell to Lin Xuan?" Nie Pianer said with a faint smile.
"Eh?"
When Yu Changfeng saw Nie Pianer's expression, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. He hurriedly said, "Protector Nie, this subordinate definitely doesn't dare to question your decision. However, this subordinate really doesn't understand. The Wind Chime Bell is an important treasure of the Daqian dynasty. It's probably not a blessing for the world for it to fall into the hands of that devil Lin Xuan! "
Nie Pianer sneered, "Hmph, how could I not know what you're thinking? However, you don't have to worry. I can't say whether the Wind Chime Bell falling into Lin Xuan's hands is a blessing or a curse for the world. However, it's definitely a blessing for Lin Xuan! "
"Hmm? Why is that? "Yu Changfeng couldn't help but be stunned. His head was filled with question marks.
