Chapter 863: Pirates' Raid and Counterattack
The blood-red wanted warrants enveloped Yun Yao like a dark, overcast sky. Thousands of wanted warrants flickered across the starry sky, like countless pairs of greedy eyes, fixated on her every move. Yun Yao, alone, journeyed through the starry sky, her expression solemn yet resolute.
Suddenly, a faint blue light streaked across the starry sky, and a massive pirate ship materialized from the void, like a long-dormant beast, its bloody maw gaping open, enveloping Yun Yao. Yun Yao's pupils shrank slightly. She knew these were pirates, bewitched by the Tiandao Pavilion. For the so-called "Heaven's Blessing," they were determined to take her life at all costs.
"Young lady, surrender obediently. If you come with us, we might even leave you with your body intact." The pirate leader's voice came from the spaceship, tinged with a hint of teasing and greed. He stood on the command console, watching Yun Yao's figure on the screen, his eyes gleaming with desire.
Yun Yao sneered inwardly. She pretended to be weak, her body trembling slightly, and fear in her eyes. "Don't come over here. I... I'm just a weak cultivator. Please let me go." Her voice was a little tearful, as if she was truly frightened by this sudden situation.
Seeing Yun Yao like this, the pirates immediately relaxed their guard. They laughed and slowly approached Yun Yao with their spaceship. "Don't worry, as long as you cooperate, we won't make things difficult for you," the pirate leader said, signaling his men to prepare to capture Yun Yao.
As the pirate ship approached Yun Yao, a cold glint flashed in her eyes. She secretly channeled the chaotic spiritual energy within her body, creating a "chaos spiritual formation" around the ship. This formation, seemingly ordinary, held a profound secret, a powerful technique she had mastered during her cultivation in the Void Realm.
The pirates were completely unaware. They opened the hatch and several of them rushed out, trying to capture Yun Yao. At this moment, Yun Yao suddenly jumped up, her body transformed into a stream of light, and instantly rushed into the interior of the spacecraft. The pirates were terrified and picked up their weapons to stop Yun Yao.
However, Yun Yao was so fast that they had no time to react. Yun Yao moved through the spaceship, and wherever she passed, chaotic spiritual energy surged. The pirates' attacks were like a drop in the ocean before the chaotic spiritual energy, disappearing without a trace.
"Oh no! This woman is setting up a formation! Stop her!" The pirate leader finally realized something was amiss. He shouted, commanding the pirates to attack Yun Yao. But Yun Yao had already finished setting up the formation. She stood in the core area of the spaceship, a sneer on her face.
"Heavenly Chains, activate!" Seeing no hope of stopping Yun Yao, the pirate leader decisively activated the ship's ultimate weapon, the Heavenly Chains. This was a treasure bestowed upon them by the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, and it was said to be able to restrain any powerful cultivator.
Golden chains shot out from the spaceship, like giant golden dragons, pouncing towards Yun Yao. Yun Yao looked at the chains without a trace of fear. She formed hand seals with her hands, muttering something, and the chaotic spiritual energy within the formation instantly transformed into thousands of spiritual swords, flying towards the Heavenly Dao chains and the spaceship.
"Boom!" With a resounding roar, the spaceship was chopped into countless pieces by the spirit sword, and stardust scattered everywhere. The pirate leader's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that his proud spaceship was so easily destroyed by the woman before him. He tried to escape, but found himself trapped by the chaotic spiritual energy, unable to move.
"You... who are you?" The pirate leader looked at Yun Yao in horror and asked in a trembling voice.
Yun Yao slowly walked up to him, her eyes icy cold. "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that you shouldn't be colluding with the Tiandao Pavilion and become their pawns." As she spoke, a stream of chaotic sword energy appeared in her hand and slashed towards the pirate leader.
At that moment, a dark shadow suddenly appeared from the void, blocking the pirate leader's path. The shadow held a black longsword, which collided with Yun Yao's chaotic sword energy. The powerful force surged, causing the surrounding space to begin to distort.
"I didn't expect that a wanted criminal by the Tiandao Pavilion would actually attack these minions. If this gets out, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?" The shadow's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of sarcasm.
Yun Yao frowned slightly. She could sense that the shadowy figure before her was far more powerful than the pirate leader, at least a master of the Void Realm. "It seems you've already set a trap, waiting for me to fall into it," Yun Yao sneered.
The shadow laughed heartily. "Indeed, the Tiandao Pavilion had long anticipated this calamity for you, and therefore sent me here to wait. As long as I can capture you, I will be highly valued by the Tiandao Pavilion and become the overlord of this world of cultivation."
Yun Yao thought to herself, this seemed like a premeditated move; the Tiandao Pavilion had gone to great lengths to capture her. But how could she surrender so easily? After this battle, her Dongxu Realm's "Sanxu" realm had been completely solidified, and she had also mastered the "Space Folding" ability. While the shadow before her was formidable, she was still capable of a fight.
"Let's see if you have the ability," Yun Yao said. The chaotic spiritual energy in her hands surged again, and she used the "Space Folding" magical power, and her figure instantly disappeared. The black shadow's pupils shrank slightly. He had never expected Yun Yao to comprehend such a powerful magical power.
Just as the shadow was searching for Yun Yao, Yun Yao suddenly appeared behind him, stabbing at him with the spirit sword in her hand. The shadow reacted very quickly, dodging Yun Yao's attack by moving sideways, and at the same time, the long sword in his hand swept towards Yun Yao.
Yun Yao once again used "Space Folding" to easily dodge the shadow's attack. She knew that the shadow's strength should not be underestimated, and she couldn't fight him head-on. She could only look for an opportunity to kill him with one strike.
The two engaged in a fierce battle in the starry sky, with chaotic spiritual energy and black sword energy intertwined, forming a spectacular and dangerous scene. Yun Yao constantly explored the black shadow's weaknesses during the battle. She found that although the black shadow was powerful, his attack method was relatively simple, relying mainly on the long sword in his hand and his own spiritual energy.
Suddenly, Yun Yao had an idea. She used the "Space Fold" technique again, folding herself and the black shadow into a small space. In this space, the black shadow's movements were greatly restricted, and his sword could not exert its full power.
"Die!" Yun Yao shouted, and the Chaos Spiritual Energy in her hand condensed into a huge Chaos Sword, slashing towards the black shadow. The black shadow wanted to resist, but in this small space, he couldn't use his body skills at all, and could only watch helplessly as the Chaos Sword slashed towards him.
"Bang!" Another loud noise sounded as the black shadow was struck by the Chaos Sword, sending him flying backwards and spurting blood from his mouth. Yun Yao didn't give him a chance to breathe. She chased after him again, stabbing the black shadow's vital points with the spirit sword in her hand.
The shadow was horrified. He knew he had faced a formidable opponent today. If he didn't use all his strength, his life would be in jeopardy. He gritted his teeth, and the black spiritual energy within him surged crazily. He unleashed his trump card—"Dark Demon Slash."
A huge black sword energy slashed towards Yun Yao. Yun Yao felt the powerful force contained in this sword energy. She did not dare to be careless. She used all her strength to circulate the chaotic spiritual energy in her body and formed a chaotic shield in front of her.
"Bang!" The black sword energy collided with the Chaos Shield, creating a violent explosion. Yun Yao was sent flying backwards by the overwhelming force, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of her mouth. But she didn't give up. She knew this was her last chance. If she couldn't defeat the black shadow, she would be doomed.
Yun Yao endured the pain in her body and once again gathered the Chaos Spiritual Energy. A determined light gleamed in her eyes. "Rage of Chaos!" She shouted, and a huge beam of Chaos Light shot out from her hand, shooting towards the black shadow.
The shadow stared at the chaotic beam of light, filled with fear. He tried to dodge, but it was too late. The chaotic beam of light struck him, and his body screamed in pain within the beam, eventually turning into a ball of stardust and disappearing into the starry sky.
After defeating the black shadow and the star pirates, Yun Yao breathed a sigh of relief. She knew this was just a test from the Tiandao Pavilion, and that even more powerful enemies would await her. But she would not retreat. She would continue to move forward, seeking the truth, breaking the Tiandao Pavilion's conspiracy, and protecting her own world.
She looked up at the starry sky, her eyes determined and full of hope. What challenges awaited her at the next stop? She didn't know, but she was ready to face all the unknown challenges.
