"Do you have any countermeasures?"
Zhang Tian whispered to Hu Xue behind him.
"The Queen Mother of the West is very powerful, even though this is just a clone of her."
"I suggest we find an exit as soon as possible."
Hu Xue said.
Zhang Tian touched his cheek.
This guy's advice was as useless as farting.
If he could find an exit, Zhang Tian would have already left, and wouldn't be here now.
"Okay, I'll fight with my brother, and you try to hold her off. Your strength is more than just this."
"I'll try to awaken the Qilin."
Zhang Tian said softly.
Hu Xue looked at the approaching two, her brow furrowed.
This Zhang Tian was really trying to push all the difficult things onto her.
But Hu Xue couldn't refuse, and it seemed like Zhang Tian's plan was the only option now.
She did have a way to temporarily hold back the Queen Mother of the West, but it would come at a cost.
As long as Zhang Tian could awaken Zhang Qilin, their chances of winning would be quite high.
"How confident are you?"
Hu Xue asked.
Zhang Tian thought for a moment.
"I don't know, but it's more likely than the current situation."
Zhang Tian said. Hu Xue didn't ask any more questions, and nodded. Then, she flickered and disappeared.
The next moment, a giant body appeared before Zhang Tian.
This was Hu Xue's true form!
Seeing this, Zhang Tian understood Hu Xue's intention. She planned to use her true form to block the Queen Mother of the West's clone.
But this was undoubtedly very dangerous. If she were injured, it would be difficult to recover.
Zhang Tian knew he didn't have much time.
He rushed directly towards Zhang Qilin.
"Swish."
Zhang Qilin's Black Gold Ancient Saber swung fiercely.
A scarlet blade energy shot straight towards Zhang Tian's brow.
Zhang Tian clearly recognized this seductive red blade energy; it was a move Zhang Qilin had used during their grave robbing.
"Slash!"
Zhang Tian also summoned his wooden sword.
As the peach wood sword slashed out, a blade energy accompanied by green lightning arcs appeared.
Zhang Tian's blade energy intertwined with Zhang Qilin's, lightning arcs raging.
The red aura cracked the surrounding floor.
"Qilin, do you remember the first tomb we went to?!"
"We went through countless dangers then, do you remember why we came here this time?"
"We came to find Bai Ma, your mother! Do you remember what happened at the antique shop?"
"Zhang Xiangtian, Li Xueqin, have you forgotten?"
Zhang Tian spoke as he attacked.
Zhang Qilin's scarlet blade energy was gradually engulfed by Zhang Tian's green lightning arcs.
Zhang Tian's current strength had caught up to Zhang Qilin's.
Especially the green lightning, its pure power was top-tier.
Zhang Qilin had been refining elixirs recently, so his cultivation had not changed much, but Zhang Tian's had undergone a dramatic transformation.
As Zhang Tian's words fell one by one, Zhang Qilin's eyes showed some emotion.
Some memories are unforgettable.
Even if sealed and forgotten, how could something etched in one's bones be forgotten?
Just like how Zhang Qilin would recall something every time he visited a familiar place.
This was something he held in his heart.
Seeing that Zhang Qilin seemed to be moved, Zhang Tian's heart rejoiced.
It was working!
Zhang Tian quickly spoke again.
"Have you forgotten our team? Fatty, Hu Bayi, me, Zhang Tian, Shirley Yang, and you, we are a five-person team!"
Zhang Tian shouted. Although it sounded a bit chuunibyo, it was Zhang Tian's only way.
If it succeeded, their side's chances would increase; if not, their survival would be slim.
Zhang Tian looked at Zhang Qilin.
When they entered this level, Zhang Qilin's attacks had not directly targeted Zhang Tian, but rather entangled with Hu Xue. This proved that he probably hadn't completely forgotten.
"Hu Bayi..."
Zhang Qilin frowned slightly.
His head throbbed.
Seeing this, Zhang Tian quickly spoke again.
"Our first team-up was in the underwater tomb, and we decided to search for your memories together."
"The first time you came to my house, we became family."
"I think you won't forget these, will you? Even if your memory is sealed, can the things etched in your bones be forgotten?"
Zhang Tian said.
The Black Gold Ancient Saber in Zhang Qilin's hand trembled slightly.
His head throbbed even more intensely.
At this time, Hu Xue was barely fighting the Queen Mother of the West.
The Queen Mother of the West, clad in her combat suit, possessed explosive power.
Even with Hu Xue revealing her true form, it was difficult to resist.
"Hmph."
Just as Hu Xue was struggling to hold on, a cold snort suddenly came from Zhang Tian's side.
Following the sound, a figure suddenly emerged from Zhang Tian's side.
A black and gold robe.
A golden headdress, and a black cloth strip covering her face.
With her appearance, the entire space seemed to twist.
A chilling pressure emanated.
Zhang Tian was stunned.
Hu Xue also looked over abruptly.
A woman about Zhang Tian's height stood there expressionlessly.
In her hand, she held a golden staff with a single eye.
"Is this... the Serpent Woman?"
Hu Xue frowned slightly.
Upon seeing the Queen of Jingjue, her expression turned somewhat surprised.
She hadn't expected Zhang Tian to have someone like this by his side.
Her strength seemed quite formidable.
If they fought together, perhaps they could indeed resist, or even win.
Zhang Tian was a little surprised that the Queen of Jingjue had come out on her own.
This was probably the second time.
Although this woman was a bit unreliable, she always managed to be useful at critical moments, which made Zhang Tian feel relieved.
"Why did you come out?"
Although relieved, Zhang Tian still asked.
"To help."
The Queen of Jingjue only said two words. The next moment, she waved her hand.
A massive fireball descended from the sky.
The staff in her hand emitted a dazzling light.
"That eye... it looks like the Snake God's."
Seeing the eye on the staff, Zhang Tian's mouth twitched.
This woman was too proactive. When had she made the eye he had just put into the spatial storage into a weapon?
However, it wasn't the time to say anything. It was good enough that she had come out to help.
As the fireball struck, the Queen Mother of the West's clone was repelled several steps.
"So strong. This woman, she hasn't been secretly cultivating again behind my back, has she?"
Looking at the scene, Zhang Tian felt a bit emotional.
But now was not the time to dwell on it.
Zhang Tian quickly recovered and looked at Zhang Qilin.
Zhang Qilin's combat power had significantly decreased.
The pain in his head made him unable to concentrate.
His attacks gradually slowed down.
Zhang Tian waved his hand and took the Black Gold Ancient Saber from Zhang Qilin's grasp.
Zhang Tian grabbed Zhang Qilin's shoulder.
His eyes stared intently into Zhang Qilin's.
"Qilin, you can do it. You can remember."
Zhang Tian said softly.
After he finished speaking, Zhang Qilin's eyes seemed to regain some lucidity.
He stopped attacking and stared intently at Zhang Tian.
Their eyes met.
After an unknown amount of time.
Zhang Tian noticed that Zhang Qilin's eyes were gradually regaining their spirit.
"Zhang Tian."
Zhang Qilin said.
Zhang Tian's heart leaped with joy.
"That's great, have you remembered anything?"
Zhang Tian asked, a little too excited.
"I've remembered everything."
Zhang Qilin said.
Zhang Tian looked at him in shock.
"Including the grave robbing?"
Zhang Tian asked uncertainly.
Zhang Qilin nodded slightly.
"Yes!"
Zhang Tian: !!!
