Chapter 220 The First Battle Begins, Demonic Path Rises
"You overestimate your own capabilities!" The Blood Demon Cult Leader's arrogant voice echoed across the battlefield. His scarlet eyes flashed with bloodthirstiness, as if he were looking at cold corpses instead of living people. Before he finished speaking, he thrust his hands forward, and a suffocating aura of terror instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.
The wind howled, sand and rocks flew, and the Blood Demon Cult Leader's magic power displayed its devastating power. Black energy surged around him, quickly condensing into huge black whirlwinds. With a terrifying shriek, it swept towards Ren Xiaoyao and the others.
"Brother Xiaoyao, be careful!" Xia Lin exclaimed, waving the staff in her hand continuously to create a defensive barrier for Ren Xiaoyao.
"Well done!" Ren Xiaoyao advanced instead of retreating, his eyes ablaze with fighting spirit. He formed seals with his hands, and a dazzling golden light burst out from his body, transforming into a golden beam that faced the terrifying black whirlwind.
boom!
Amidst a deafening roar, the golden beam of light collided head-on with the black whirlwind. The powerful energy fluctuations swept across like a tsunami, uprooting the surrounding trees and scraping off a layer of the ground.
Ren Xiaoyao groaned, his body forced back several steps, but he quickly steadied himself and charged forward again. He knew that this battle concerned the fate of the entire martial arts world, and he absolutely could not retreat!
The Righteous Alliance Leader and the Swordsman Qingfeng also displayed their unique skills and engaged in a desperate fight with the Blood Demon Leader. However, the Blood Demon Leader was too powerful, and every move he made contained destructive power, which made the Righteous Alliance members breathless.
"Haha, you can't even withstand a single blow!" The Blood Demon Cult leader laughed wildly, his eyes full of contempt.
Although Ren Xiaoyao and others fought desperately, the attacks of the demons were too fierce and they gradually began to be unable to resist, and their formation was gradually broken up.
"Kill! Don't leave any one alive!" the Blood Demon Cult leader shouted sternly, with murderous glint in his eyes.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly became more chaotic. The righteous people were defeated one after another under the crazy attacks of the evil forces, and people kept getting injured and falling down.
At this moment, a black shadow and a red shadow suddenly rushed out from the chaotic battlefield and headed straight for the injured people in the righteous group...
The black shadow was as swift as a ghost, the red shadow as venomous as a snake and scorpion. They were none other than the Blood Demon Cult's Shadow Guardian and Scorpion Witch. The Shadow Guardian's hands were like hooks, and his attacks were ruthless, focusing on his opponent's vital points. The Scorpion Witch wielded a pair of poisoned steel claws, leaving a trail of blood in her wake.
"Ah!" A horrible scream rang out as a righteous disciple, unable to dodge, was scratched in the chest by the Shadow Guardian's claws. Blood gushed out, staining his clothes red. He clutched his wound in agony, but was powerless to stop the loss of life, and finally collapsed helplessly in a pool of blood.
"Senior Brother!" A righteous disciple standing nearby was furious when he saw this. He swung his sword and rushed towards the Shadow Protector in grief and anger, but the Scorpion Witch seized the opportunity and pierced his abdomen with a claw.
"Hehe, you don't know your own limitations!" The Shadow Protector sneered and kicked the disciple away. He fell into the crowd of demons and was instantly hacked to pieces by the swords.
"Stop! You despicable villains!" Charlene was filled with grief and anger when she saw this scene, but the staff in her hand never stopped, releasing warm rays of light that enveloped the wounded and healed their injuries.
However, the demonic duo's sneak attack was far too treacherous, and the casualties on the righteous side continued to mount. Even with her superb medical skills, Xia Lin gradually felt powerless. Looking at the bodies lying on the ground and the wounded groaning in pain, she couldn't help but burst into tears, her heart burning with anxiety.
"Brother Xiaoyao, please think of a solution quickly! If this continues, we will all die here!" Xia Lin shouted anxiously to Ren Xiaoyao who was fighting fiercely with the Blood Demon Leader.
Ren Xiaoyao also noticed the situation here, but he was entangled by the Blood Demon Cult Leader and could not escape at all. The Blood Demon Cult Leader's strength was even stronger than he had imagined. Each move carried the power of devastating destruction, making him exhausted.
"Hahaha, Ren Xiaoyao, just watch your companions die one by one!" The Blood Demon Leader laughed wildly, and his attack became more and more fierce, forcing Ren Xiaoyao to retreat continuously.
At this moment, Qingfeng Swordsman seized an opportunity, flashed around, and tried to bypass the Blood Demon Leader to support others, but was blocked by the Shadow Protector.
"Your opponent is me!" The Shadow Protector smiled sinisterly, and a long sword as black as ink appeared in his hand, with bursts of cold air emanating from the sword.
"Get out of here!" The Qingfeng Swordsman shouted angrily, and the sword in his hand turned into a flash of lightning, piercing the throat of the Shadow Protector.
However, the Shadow Protector was well prepared and dodged the attack of the Qingfeng Swordsman by moving his body to the side. At the same time, he swung the long sword in his hand, and it collided with the long sword of the Qingfeng Swordsman, making a sharp sound of metal clashing.
The two engaged in a fierce battle. The Qingfeng Swordsman's swordsmanship was exquisite, his moves fierce, but his old injuries hadn't healed, and his internal Qi was not flowing smoothly, so he gradually fell behind. Meanwhile, the Shadow Guardian's moves were sinister and vicious, and he became more and more courageous as the battle went on, constantly forcing the Qingfeng Swordsman to retreat.
"Qingfeng, be careful!" In the distance, the leader of the righteous alliance who was fighting fiercely with the Scorpion Witch saw this scene and couldn't help but remind loudly.
However, his warning was still a step too late. The Shadow Guardian seized the opportunity when the Qingfeng Swordsman was vulnerable and thrust out his sword like lightning, aiming straight at the Qingfeng Swordsman's chest...
"Qingfeng! Be careful!" the Righteous Alliance leader cried out, but he was powerless to respond. The Scorpion Witch's attack was like a violent storm, forcing him to fend for himself.
The Qingfeng Swordsman grunted, barely avoiding the fatal blow. The tip of the Shadow Protector's sword barely grazed his heart, the icy chill instantly sending him into a cold sweat. Ignoring the searing pain in his chest, the Qingfeng Swordsman gritted his teeth and summoned a powerful Qi, swinging his sword in a single movement, desperately blocking the Shadow Protector's subsequent barrage of attacks.
"Your swordsmanship is good, but it's a pity that you will die here today!" The Shadow Protector smiled sinisterly, waving the black sword in his hand tightly and fiercely, directly targeting the vital points of the Qingfeng Swordsman.
"Stop talking nonsense! This evil heretic must be killed by all!" Qingfeng Swordsman roared angrily, suppressing the surging blood and energy in his body as he fought tooth and nail with the Shadow Guardian. He was extremely anxious, knowing that he had to quickly eliminate this formidable opponent so that he could free up his hands to help the others, especially Ren Xiaoyao.
"You are overestimating yourself!" The Shadow Protector sneered and attacked more fiercely.
The leader of the Righteous Path was also having a tough time. He commanded his men to form a defensive formation, attempting to withstand the fierce attacks of the Demonic Path. However, the demonic forces' attacks continued in waves, surging like a tide, leaving them no chance to breathe. No sooner had the formation stabilized than it was ripped apart by the demonic attacks, and the casualties continued to mount.
"Everyone, don't panic! Maintain your formation!" the Righteous Alliance leader shouted, brandishing his sword with impenetrable force, repelling wave after wave of attacks. But he was old, and his strength was gradually failing. Beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
"Hahaha, you hypocrites of the righteous path, today is the day you die!" The Blood Demon Leader laughed wildly, and the blood-red long sword in his hand set off a bloody storm, and blood and flesh flew everywhere it passed.
While Ren Xiaoyao engaged the Blood Demon Cult Leader in a fierce battle, he closely monitored the situation on the battlefield. Seeing the righteous forces losing ground and suffering heavy casualties, he felt extremely anxious. He knew he had to turn the tide quickly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
"Brother Xiaoyao, you have to be careful!" Xia Lin's voice came, with a hint of trembling and worry.
Ren Xiaoyao didn't look back, but whispered: "Lin'er, protect yourself, leave this to me!"
While fending off the Blood Demon Cult Leader's attacks, he silently pondered how to use his magic to counter them. He knew that only by finding his opponent's weakness could he defeat him in one fell swoop. However, the Blood Demon Cult Leader's next attack was already approaching. Could he successfully withstand it...
The Blood Demon Cult Leader's blood-red blade slashed down at Ren Xiaoyao with a terrifying howl. Wherever the blade passed, the air seemed to tear apart, emitting waves of wailing. Ren Xiaoyao didn't dare to be careless. With a thought, the true energy in his body surged out, and the long sword in his hand suddenly glowed, and he thrust forward to meet the blood-red blade light.
"boom!"
With a resounding bang, sword energy and blade light collided violently, emitting a dazzling burst of light. The powerful shockwave sent everything around him flying. Ren Xiaoyao groaned and retreated several steps before barely stabilizing himself. The Blood Demon Cult Leader remained motionless, a cruel sneer curling his lips.
"Boy, is this all you have?" The Blood Demon Cult Leader's voice was as harsh and harsh as a night owl. "Today, I'll show you what true power is!"
After saying this, the Blood Demon Cult Leader quickly formed seals with his hands, muttering something. As he moved, the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth began to fluctuate violently, and a terrifying aura that made one's heart palpitate emanated from his body.
"Oh no! He's about to unleash his ultimate move!" Seeing this, the leader of the Righteous Alliance's face changed drastically, and he shouted anxiously, "Xiaoyao, be careful, get out of the way!"
However, Ren Xiaoyao stood there motionless, as if frozen in place. He stared intently at the Blood Demon Cult Leader, his mind replaying past encounters with the demonic sect leader, trying to find the key to breaking his opponent's technique.
"Hahaha, it's too late! Prepare to die!" The Blood Demon Leader laughed wildly and pushed his hands forward.
In an instant, a black whirlwind appeared out of nowhere, surrounding Ren Xiaoyao. Within the whirlwind, countless sharp sword auras were mixed in, like countless poisonous snakes, frantically biting Ren Xiaoyao's body.
"Brother Xiaoyao!" Xia Lin exclaimed and wanted to rush forward to help desperately, but was held back by the leader of the righteous alliance.
"Lin'er, don't be impulsive! If you go up now, you'll only die in vain!" The leader of the Righteous Alliance said with tears streaming down his face, grief-stricken. "We've tried our best. It's my incompetence that can't protect you..."
"No, I can't give up like this!" Xia Lin looked at Ren Xiaoyao who was swallowed by the black whirlwind with tears in her eyes, her heart filled with despair and grief.
The black whirlwind spun faster and faster, its power growing stronger and stronger. The surrounding trees were uprooted and reduced to dust. Ren Xiaoyao was completely submerged in it, his life or death uncertain.
Just when everyone thought that Ren Xiaoyao was doomed, a deafening dragon roar suddenly rang out from the black whirlwind...
