Total silence ruled the whole place, with the colors returning to the world.
No trace of spirit beasts could be seen in the distance.
Deng Tianjin's consciousness became blurred as he could not help but fall from the sky. His cultivation essence drained along with his soul spiritual force, his consciousness sea ached intensely.
"Master!"
"Elder Deng!"
Wen Wencheng, Shi Yunfeng, Xu Linghu and the other disciples rushed to catch and help Deng Tianjin when they saw him fall without resistance.
Deng Tianjin managed to steady himself before hitting the ground, stopping a few meters away before leaning on Wen Wencheng once he went all the way down. His complexion was pale and his breath irregular, his heartbeat was beating irregularly as well while his aura was unstable with inconsistent pulsations.
"Hurry up and leave... there are still ferocious beasts coming this way..." With his breath hitching and his complexion pale, Deng Tianjin muttered grimly as he remembered that he managed to pick up with his spirit sense more spirit beasts in the distance before he weakened.
Deng Tianjin looked at Wen Wencheng and quickly added, "Hurry up! Wencheng, you now have the leadership of the Peak of the Peerless Sword Essence, inform the other elders what happened... now go!"
Deng Tianjin took three Chi Recovery Pills and two Spiritual Energy Recovery Pills. His breathing was partially controlled and he stood up again.
Deng Tianjin also handed his storage ring to Wen Wencheng as he quickly refined the pills. His decreasing aura stopped and again began to slowly rise.
* Roar! *
* Grrr! *
Roars quickly echoed in the distance, filling everyone in the place with anxiety.
"M-master..." Wen Wencheng reluctantly looked at Deng Tianjin and shook his head as his hands shook as he held his master's spatial ring.
"Elder Deng, I will try to buy you time to recover and we can all leave..."
"Enough! As your master and sect elder it is your duty to listen to me!"
Shi Yunfeng tried to explain what he had in mind but was interrupted by Deng Tianjin.
"My attacks don't work in this place, especially with my suppressed cultivation base, so it goes without saying that your strength and attacks would be useless... I only have a little energy to buy you time so that you can look for a way out, so don't waste it!"
Deng Tianjin's expression became solemn and serious, leaving no room for anyone to speak.
Wen Wencheng stared helplessly and sadly at his master, while Shi Yunfeng clenched his hands as he saw that his strength was still very low. Xu Linghu and the others were silent, but their expressions clearly showed the helplessness, sadness, reluctance and so on in their hearts.
Their cultivations were still very low and weak, and in this place they were even more suppressed, so it was useless to try to fight alongside their sect elder. Moreover, they would become a greater obstacle than now.
However, none of them moved, much less escaped.
Deng Tianjin was annoyed to see that none of these guys moved to escape. The spirit beasts had already entered within the reduced range of his weakened spirit sense, so there wasn't much time left.
The spirit beasts were still the same, with hundreds and thousands of them running towards where they were, roaring ferociously without any shred of reasoning or intelligence, as if the only thing in them was their wild instincts.
There was no one around, not even any cultivators who had entered the pagoda before them. Practically this place was desolate and only they were here, a place with no escape destined for death...
Deng Tianjin shook his head and concentrated, finishing once again sweeping over the entire place and almost all of the spirit beasts that arrived with his faint spirit sense. No matter what, he had to secure the lives of these kids, even if it was at the cost of his own. After all, this was the first reason why he had even come all the way to the south state to look for them.
"Master, this disciple has failed you..." Deng Tianjin smiled bitterly and the next moment let out a long sigh.
"Once I finish my attack, I will clear the way for you to leave! You have to move quickly!" Deng Tianjin exclaimed firmly.
Deng Tianjin's power was quickly rising, waiting for the moment when more spirit beasts would enter his spirit sense range and he would clear a path for his disciples.
"Guys, are you really you?!"
"Big brothers! Big sister!"
Suddenly, two female voices in the distance came rushing over, stunning Wen Wencheng and the others. Deng Tianjin was dumbfounded when he felt that he recognized these voices.
The guys were shocked and speechless when they finally observed two little girls wearing similar garments to them quickly catch up to them on their flying swords.
Two beautiful and pretty girls, one about 13 years old and the other about 16 years old flew on their flying swords in the sky and approached them as the color seemed to glow in the place, as if they brought spring and charm in them.

Among them, Xu Linghu was stunned and at once her pupils shrank in surprise and she exclaimed when she recognized these two girls, "Junior Sister Li?! Junior Sister Zu'er?!"
"What? The junior sisters from the Peak of the Free and Unfettered Little Cloud?" Shi Yunfeng exclaimed upon hearing Xu Linghu, immediately turning to look at the two girls who had caught up to them in the blink of an eye.
"Junior Sister Li! Junior Sister Zu'er!" Wen Wencheng was surprised to see Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu, his junior martial sisters of sect and disciples of sect elder, Zhen Bingluo!
"It's really you guys!" Xuan Li exclaimed full of happiness and relief.
"Big Sister Linghu! It's you! Big brother Shi, big brother Wen, big brother Sang, big brother Zong, big brother Zhishan, brother Du... it's really you!"
With an excited expression, Lang Qingzu happily hugged Xu Linghu. She also glanced up and looked at Shi Yunfeng and the others, instantly recognizing them.
"Z-zu'er!?"
"It's Junior Sister Zu'er!"
"And it's Junior Sister Li!"
"Senior Sister Li!"
"Junior Sister Li, Junior Sister Zu'er! What are you doing here?!"
Once they recognized Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu, the guys were momentarily excited before the atmosphere turned serious and somber.
Deng Tianjin's expression became more anxious and worried as he recognized Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu, these two girls are the disciples of his younger sister Zhen Bingluo! What were those two girls doing in this place? How did they both manage to get in!
Knowing that there were two more female sect disciples under his care, Deng Tianjin did not hesitate to burn more blood essence, he had to save all of them!
Deng Tianjin looked somewhat sadly at the two swords in his hands before making a decision. The two swords in his hands slowly rose up before they disappeared in front of him as if they had never existed. A glimpse of sharp aura appeared briefly before it was absorbed by Deng Tianjin quickly.
"Hum? Big sister, look! Spiritual beasts!"
As the roars of the spirit beasts began to fill the sky, Lang Qingzu was startled and her spirit sense spread out, covering the spirit beasts. She was even more surprised and reported to Xuan Li.
"Uhmm, I see it..." Xuan Li nodded and moved with intent to speak to Deng Tianjin once she noticed him.
"Junior Sisters, I don't know why you're here, but you'd better come with us to escape this horrible place while elder Deng buys us time and later he'll catch up with us!"
Shi Yunfeng walked over and took Lang Qingzu's little hand with the intention of carrying her with him and taking her away as well as Xuan Li, after all, Lang Qingzu was barely going to build her foundation the last time he remembered seeing her, while Xuan Li still had a long way to go before she could build her own golden core.
Although it pained him greatly and he did not want to abandon one of his sect elders who protected and cared for him, Shi Yunfeng now had to make sure to take all his junior siblings away from here, especially when Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu appeared as well. This way, Elder Deng Tianjin's sacrifice would not be in vain and, hopefully, he too could survive.
Shi Yunfeng even thought of taking all his sect siblings out and going back for Deng Tianjin even if it cost him his life.
Lang Qingzu pouted unhappily when she saw Shi Yunfeng holding her hand, treating her like a very little girl.
* Boom! *
The moment Lang Qingzu was about to release her powerful aura to indicate to these big brothers that she was very strong, Deng Tianjin's powerful aura covered the entire place again, filling sky and earth in an instant.
"Go!"
Deng Tianjin said only one word and waved his arm as a sword made of pure spiritual Chi materialized in his hand.
The same attack [Sword That Pierces Heaven And Earth], was displayed and directed towards all the spiritual beasts in the place. The color of the world faded briefly, as if time stopped for a few moments.
This time, what appeared to be an invisible but very large and giant sword that covered the entire sky, slashed towards the spirit beasts, meeting little resistance to finally turn them into dust once again.
The spirit sense was forced beyond its capacity and quickly marked a space, focusing and slaying all the ferocious spirit beasts to create a long spacious path of hundreds of miles.
Silence filled the place once again, with the colors of the world returning as the atmosphere felt heavy and cold.
Deng Tianjin felt the last trace of his strength fading away, his consciousness dimming with his sight becoming blurred as he faintly felt himself falling towards the ground.
Then, Deng Tianjin barely managed to very faintly catch a quiet voice he hadn't heard in a very long time, shocking him and stopping his heart as he thought of the most important person in his life.
"Hoo? One of my bratty disciples managed to touch the entrance to the sword path?"
