Chapter 465 Life and Death - 1st Line
Liu Yan'er had been dormant for a long time. Seeing that the Blood Demon Sect was fighting Yun Yao, Chu Mochen and others, and the mountain protection formation was also crumbling under the impact of the demon cultivators, she knew that this was the perfect time for her to give Yun Yao a fatal blow. While everyone's attention was attracted by the melee in front of the formation, Liu Yan'er shuttled around the edge of the chaotic battlefield like a ghost, quietly approaching Yun Yao's position.
Yun Yao was concentrating on controlling the Ice Soul Sword, pouring her spiritual power into the sword continuously. Every time she swung the sword, she created an ice storm, repelling the approaching demon cultivators. Her forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and her face was slightly pale due to the massive consumption of spiritual power, but her eyes were full of determination, and her belief in protecting the Lingxian Sect made her forget her fatigue.
Chu Mochen was also fighting bloody battles not far away. The Star Sword in his hand was like a swimming dragon, and blood would be seen whenever the sword was drawn. He fought against many enemies alone, relying on his superb swordsmanship and powerful spiritual power to tear open a hole in the encirclement of the demon cultivators, trying to meet up with Yun Yao and take care of each other.
Just as Yun Yao swung her sword to knock away a group of demon cultivators who were trying to break through the defense line, a cold and sinister aura quickly attacked from behind. She suddenly felt a sense of alarm in her heart and subconsciously wanted to dodge sideways, but the force came too fast and she had no time to make a complete defensive move.
Liu Yan'er was surrounded by billowing black smoke, and her magic skills were running to the extreme. Her right palm, with the power of destroying everything, directly pressed towards Yun Yao's heart. This palm contained all her jealousy and resentment towards Yun Yao, as well as her determination to never give up until she achieved her goal. The power was extremely terrifying.
"Yun Yao!" Chu Mochen caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye in the melee, and was furious. He wanted to rush over to rescue her at all costs, but was entangled by a group of demon cultivators. He could only watch Liu Yan'er's evil hand fall towards Yun Yao.
At the critical moment, Yun Yao felt as if her chest was hit by a heavy hammer, and a mouthful of blood instantly rushed up her throat and spurted out. The whole person flew forward uncontrollably like a kite with a broken string, and fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust. The Bingpo Sword was also injured because its owner, and its light dimmed, buzzing and trembling beside it.
"Hahaha, Yun Yao, today is the day you die!" Liu Yan'er succeeded in her attack and stood there laughing wildly. Her laughter echoed on the battlefield, making people's hair stand on end. She seemed to have seen Yun Yao die on the spot and the Lingxian Sect destroyed by the rampage of the Blood Demon Sect. The joy in her heart reached its peak.
However, her laughter did not last long. At the moment when Yun Yao fell to the ground, the system detected that the host was in danger of death and triggered the emergency protection mechanism. A soft light bloomed from Yun Yao's body, and the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill that the system gave as an emergency reward automatically emerged, exuding a dense medicinal fragrance and slowly rotating in the air.
Yun Yao endured the severe pain in her chest, struggled to raise her hand, and held the pill tightly. She glanced at Chu Mochen who was still fighting hard and trying to rush towards her not far away, and her heart warmed up, and endless strength surged up again.
"I can't die. I have to protect Lingxian Sect with him and explore the mystery of my life experience..." Yun Yao swore silently in her heart and stuffed the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill into her mouth without hesitation. The pill melted in her mouth, and a powerful medicinal power instantly spread throughout her limbs and bones, repairing her damaged meridians and internal organs.
Feeling the vitality in her body gradually recovering, Yun Yao's eyes flashed with determination. She reached out and grasped the Bingpo Sword. The sword felt the renewed fighting spirit of its master, and its light shone brightly again.
"Liu Yan'er, today is the day you die!" Yun Yao shouted, and stood up with all her might. She was no longer passively defending, but actively attacking. At this moment, the anger in her heart was like a raging fire, burning her reason, but also giving her unprecedented strength.
Yun Yao took a deep breath, mobilized the power of the Nascent Soul in her body, and triggered the heavenly tribulation of thunder. In an instant, the originally clear sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. Purple lightning shuttled through the clouds, like angry dragons, ready to go.
"This... How is this possible?" Liu Yan'er looked at the strange phenomenon in the sky in horror. The smugness on her face instantly disappeared, replaced by deep fear. She didn't expect that Yun Yao could still burst out with such amazing power after suffering a severe injury, and draw the power of heaven and earth to her own use.
The demon cultivators of the Blood Demon Sect were also frightened by the sudden sight of the heavenly tribulation, and their offensive was slowed down. Some timid demon cultivators even began to flee in all directions. They knew the horror of the heavenly tribulation, which was a force that even immortals would be afraid of, so how could ordinary demon cultivators like them resist it?
Yun Yao didn't care, she immersed all her mind in controlling the heavenly tribulation lightning punishment. Following her guidance, a purple lightning as thick as a water tank came crashing down, and the target was Liu Yan'er.
Liu Yan'er hurriedly used her defensive magic weapon, and a shield emitting black light appeared in front of her, trying to resist the power of the heavenly tribulation. However, in front of this heavenly tribulation, her defense seemed so fragile. The purple lightning easily penetrated the shield, as if it was in an empty space, and struck straight at her.
"Ah!" Liu Yan'er let out a shrill scream, and her whole body was enveloped by lightning. Her hair was instantly singed, her clothes turned to ashes, and her skin was also charred black. She fell to the ground, twitching constantly, spurting out large mouthfuls of black blood, and she was dying.
Yun Yao did not stop there. She waved the Ice Soul Sword in her hand, and several more lightning bolts struck the demon cultivators of the Blood Demon Sect. Every time a lightning bolt fell, it was accompanied by a scream from a demon cultivator, and the battlefield was instantly filled with the smell of burning.
Chu Mochen took the opportunity to get rid of the demon cultivator's entanglement and flew to Yun Yao's side. He supported Yun Yao's shaky body, his eyes full of concern: "Yun Yao, how are you?"
Yun Yao smiled slightly and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth: "I'm fine, thanks to the system's Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill."
The two stood side by side, looking at the mess on the battlefield, with mixed feelings in their hearts. Although they temporarily repelled the attack from Liu Yan'er and the Blood Demon Sect, they knew that the crisis was not resolved and greater challenges were still to come.
"We must repair the mountain protection formation as soon as possible and hold on to the end." Yun Yao tightly grasped the Bingpo Sword and said with a firm look.
"Okay, I'll go with you." Chu Mochen nodded, raised the Star Sword again, and rushed towards the direction of the mountain protection formation with Yun Yao. Their figures seemed so small in the lightning and smoke, but so firm, carrying the hope of the entire Lingxian Sect.
In the following time, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen resisted the counterattack of the demon cultivators while taking advantage of the brief intervals on the battlefield to inject their own spiritual power into the mountain protection formation and repair the damaged formation patterns. Each injection of spiritual power was accompanied by a flash of light, the formation patterns gradually lit up, and the defense power was slowly restored.
However, the demon cultivators' attacks came one after another, seemingly endless. Under the coercion and inducement of the Blood Demon Sect Master, they were fearless and attacked the Lingxian Sect's defense line again and again.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's spiritual power gradually ran out, and they suffered more and more wounds, but they never gave up. The two supported and encouraged each other, and with their tenacious will and deep tacit understanding, they repelled the demon cultivators again and again.
"Yun Yao, hold on!" Chu Mochen shouted loudly during the fierce battle.
"I know we can win!" Yun Yao responded with gritted teeth.
Just when they were almost exhausted, a melodious bell sound suddenly came from the sky. The bell sounded as if it came from the sky, containing a mysterious power that reached everyone's ears. When the demon cultivators heard the bell sound, they were struck by lightning, and their offensive collapsed instantly. They all showed fear on their faces and knelt down to beg for mercy.
"This is..." Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion.
Before they could figure out the situation, a peaceful light descended from the sky, covering the entire Lingxian Sect. Under the light, the injured disciples' injuries healed quickly, and the mountain protection formation was instantly restored to its original state, shining brighter than before.
"Could it be that there is an expert helping me?" Yun Yao murmured to herself.
"No matter what, this is our turning point." Chu Mochen tightly gripped the Star Sword and looked around vigilantly.
As the light gradually faded, an old man in white slowly emerged. He had a kind face, white hair like snow, and held a whisk in his hand. He exuded an otherworldly aura, like an immortal descending from the world.
"Thank you for your help, senior!" Yun Yao and Chu Mochen hurried forward to express their gratitude.
The old man waved his hand slightly and said with a smile: "You are welcome. I am the guardian of Lingxian Sect. How can I stand idly by when I see the sect in trouble?"
It turned out that this old man was a remnant soul left behind by the first generation leader who founded Lingxian Sect. He had been secretly guarding the sect. Today, seeing Yun Yao and Chu Mochen fighting to the death to protect the sect, he was deeply moved and helped them.
With the help of the old man, the crisis of Lingxian Sect was finally resolved. Most of the demon cultivators were killed or injured, and the leader of the Blood Demon Sect was seriously injured and fled under the pressure of the old man. Liu Yan'er was sealed by Yun Yao and waited for her fate.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen looked at the ruined Lingxian Sect with emotion in their hearts. This battle had cost them a heavy price, but it had also made them stronger and more united.
"Next, we still have a long way to go." Yun Yao said softly.
"Well, no matter what the future holds, I will stay by your side." Chu Mochen held Yun Yao's hand with a firm look in his eyes.
The two smiled at each other and set off on a new journey hand in hand under the afterglow of the setting sun. They knew that the challenges ahead might be even more arduous, but as long as they were with each other, nothing could stop them from moving forward.
