Chapter 691 Fighting Side by Side
In the dark and deep cave, the light of spiritual power and the evil black fog collided fiercely, like the fireworks of the end of the world, brilliant but full of deadly danger. Yun Yao, a woman with a mysterious background and mission, was immersed in the inheritance of the ancient power at this moment. The spiritual power around her body was like a surging tide, surging one after another, converging deep into her body. Her face was immersed in a soft golden light, her brows slightly wrinkled, as if she was struggling to blend with the ancient and majestic consciousness. Every trace of spiritual power absorbed was accompanied by a tremor in the depths of her soul, as if she was reshaping the foundation of her life.
Not far from her, Chu Mochen stood like a towering mountain. He stood tall and straight, holding the sword tightly in his hand. The cold light on the sword was just like his iron-like eyes at the moment. His black hair fluttered in the wind, and his clothes rustled. Facing the black-robed people who were rushing in like a tide, he was not afraid at all. These black-robed people were ghostly and had a gloomy aura. The leader had a cold look like the cold pool under the nine netherworlds, which was daunting. Their intrusion this time was clearly to snatch the ancient inheritance that was about to fall into Yun Yao's hands at the most critical moment.
For a moment, shouts and screams rang out in the cave, and the black smoke seemed to have life, swirling in the air and sweeping towards Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen snorted coldly, and shook the long sword in his hand. In an instant, sword shadows flew, turning into silver lightning, and fiercely slashed at the black fog that was rushing towards him. Every time the sword was swung, it was accompanied by his powerful spiritual power, and it actually tore the seemingly all-pervasive black fog open. However, there were too many people in black robes. When one wave fell, another wave quickly filled it. They chanted something in their mouths, kept changing hand seals in their hands, and the evil spells poured down like raindrops.
Although Chu Mochen was extremely powerful, he gradually felt powerless under this wheel-like attack. Sweat dripped from his forehead, soaking his clothes, and the veins on the back of his hand holding the sword bulged, showing the huge pressure he was under at the moment. But his eyes never flinched. In his deep eyes, the figure of the enemy was reflected, burning with unyielding fighting spirit, as if announcing to the world that as long as he was still alive, he would never allow these villains to hurt Yun Yao in the slightest.
Just when Chu Mochen was about to lose his resistance and his body began to sway, Yun Yao suddenly opened her eyes. At that moment, golden light burst out from her eyes, like two golden suns, illuminating the entire cave. The originally peaceful spiritual power suddenly became violent, forming a layer of golden shield around her body. Then, her figure flashed, like a golden meteor, and appeared beside Chu Mochen in an instant.
"Brother Chu, I'm here to help you!" Yun Yao shouted, her voice like a bell, resounding throughout the cave. She waved her jade hand, and a golden rune flew out from her palm, instantly enlarged in the air, and turned into an indestructible light curtain, blocking all the fierce attacks of the black-robed man. This rune was learned from the ancient heritage, and it contained endless mysterious power. Once it was used at this moment, it showed amazing power.
The black-robed men were all stunned when they saw this, obviously they did not expect Yun Yao to forcibly interrupt the inheritance at this critical moment. But they quickly came to their senses, the greed and murderous intent in their eyes became even stronger, and their offensive became more fierce. Yun Yao was not afraid at all, she and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and there seemed to be sparks flashing where their eyes met, which was the tacit understanding cultivated by years of fighting side by side. There was no need to say more, they already knew what the other was thinking.
Yun Yao took a deep breath and moved her hands quickly, forming complex and mysterious hand seals. As the hand seals were formed, the spiritual power in the air seemed to be inspired and rushed towards her frantically, gathering in front of her to form a huge golden spiritual power vortex. In the vortex, there was a faint sound of thunder, like the roar of an ancient god.
"Go!" Yun Yao shouted tenderly, pointing her jade hand forward. The spiritual energy vortex rushed towards the black-robed crowd like a wild horse. Wherever it went, the space seemed to be torn apart, making a "sizzling" sound. The black-robed people widened their eyes in horror and cast defensive spells one after another, trying to resist this terrifying attack. However, in front of the violent spiritual power, their defense was like paper, and was torn to pieces in an instant. Many black-robed people were directly sucked into the vortex, screaming, and turned into ashes in an instant.
Seeing Yun Yao so brave, Chu Mochen was also full of enthusiasm. He raised his sword in his hand, tapped the ground with his toes, and rushed into the black-robed crowd like a black lightning. The long sword in his hand danced like a dragon and snake, and every time the sword was thrust out, it would definitely bring a splash of blood. He was agile and cleverly avoided the attacks of the black-robed people while turning and moving. At the same time, he could accurately find the enemy's flaws and give a fatal blow.
The two cooperated well, one attacking and the other defending, as if they were one. Yun Yao used the powerful analytical ability of the system to always see the flaws in the black-robed man's spells and provide support to Chu Mochen in time; while Chu Mochen relied on his superb swordsmanship to attack the enemy's vital points, creating more opportunities for Yun Yao to cast spells. With their joint efforts, the black-robed man's camp was in chaos, and the originally neat formation was instantly broken into pieces, and the offensive became weak and powerless.
However, the leader of the black-robed men would not give up easily. Seeing his men so vulnerable, he was furious, and a flash of madness flashed in his eyes. He bit his tongue and spurted out a mouthful of blood, which sprinkled on the magic wand in his hand. The magic wand instantly shone brightly, and a heart-pounding evil breath rushed over. Then, he muttered something in his mouth, reciting an ancient and obscure spell. As the spell sounded, his body began to swell, his muscles tightened, and veins on his skin bulged, like a ferocious little snake. His eyes, which were already cold, became red as blood at this moment, like a demon from hell.
"Hmph, even if I risk my life today, I will keep you two here and seize the ancient inheritance!" The black-robed leader roared, his voice hoarse and unpleasant, like nails scratching on a blackboard. After saying that, he waved his magic wand and launched a crazy attack on Yun Yao and Chu Mochen. This attack gathered all his strength and the terrifying increase brought by the forbidden spell, like a black torrent of world destruction. Wherever it went, the stone walls of the cave were blasted into deep gullies, and gravel flew everywhere.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen's faces changed when they saw this. They could feel the huge power contained in this attack, which was incomparable to the previous attack. The two did not dare to slack off, and quickly moved together, back to back, to resist this fatal crisis together. Yun Yao quickly formed seals with both hands, releasing all the spiritual power in her body without reservation, forming a multi-layered golden shield in front of her; Chu Mochen held the long sword across his chest, and the spiritual power on the sword body surged, making a buzzing sound, echoing with Yun Yao's shield, forming an indestructible line of defense.
The black torrent slammed into the golden defense line, making a deafening noise. The entire cave shook violently, and the rocks on the top of the cave fell down, as if a rain of rocks was falling. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen only felt an overwhelming force rushing towards them, and their bodies flew backwards uncontrollably, hitting the stone wall of the cave heavily. The stone wall cracked instantly, and dense cracks appeared.
The two fell to the ground in a mess, spitting blood from their mouths. Yun Yao's face was as pale as paper, blood was oozing from the corners of her mouth, but her eyes were still firm. She struggled to stand up, but found that her legs were weak and her spiritual power was disordered, making it difficult to mobilize for a while. Chu Mochen was not much better, his clothes were torn, his body was injured in many places, and his clothes were stained red with blood. But he endured the severe pain, supported his body with the sword, slowly stood up, and blocked Yun Yao, like an unbreakable Great Wall.
"Yun Yao, how are you?" Chu Mochen asked with concern, with a hint of anxiety in his voice.
"I'm fine, Brother Chu, we can't just fall down like this!" Yun Yao wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her eyes revealing a resolute look. She knew very well that if she gave up at this moment, not only would their lives be in danger, but the ancient inheritance would fall into the hands of the black-robed man, and it would bring disaster to the entire cultivation world.
The black-robed leader saw the two men lying on the ground with serious injuries, but still refused to surrender, and he secretly admired them in his heart. However, his killing intent did not diminish in the slightest, but became even stronger. He sneered and approached Yun Yao and Chu Mochen step by step. The black light on the magic wand in his hand flickered unsteadily, like an evil beast that was choosing its prey.
"Humph, you still want to resist? Today is the day you die!" The black-robed leader laughed grimly.
Yun Yao was extremely anxious, her brain was working rapidly, trying to find a response. Suddenly, her eyes fell on the token in her hand. This token had accompanied the unveiling of the mystery of her life from beginning to end. Now at this critical moment of life and death, could it still exert its magical power? Yun Yao didn't have time to think too much, she held the token tightly and injected the last bit of spiritual power in her body into it.
In an instant, the token glowed brightly, and a mysterious and ancient aura spread out. This aura seemed to come from ancient times, containing endless vicissitudes and power. Seeing this, the black-robed leader's face suddenly changed. He felt a strong threat and his steps paused unconsciously.
Yun Yao seized this fleeting opportunity and exchanged glances with Chu Mochen. A look of determination flashed across their eyes at the same time. They tacitly mobilized the remaining spiritual power in their bodies at the same time, preparing to launch their strongest attack. Yun Yao clasped her hands together, muttering something, and golden runes flew out from her palms, gathering into a huge rune array in the air. In the rune array, light shone, as if it contained the power of the stars in the universe.
Chu Mochen took a deep breath and concentrated all his energy on the sword. The sword in his hand hummed, and the runes on the sword body flickered, as if it were alive. He raised the sword high, with the tip of the sword pointing to the sky. The whole person seemed to be integrated with the world, exuding an indomitable momentum.
"Kill!" The two roared at the same time. Yun Yao pointed her jade hand forward, and the rune formation rushed towards the black-robed leader like a golden cannonball; Chu Mochen flashed like a stream of light, following closely behind the rune formation, and stabbed out with the long sword in his hand fiercely. The sword's force was like a rainbow, as if to pierce through the heaven and earth.
The black-robed leader's eyes widened in horror. He wanted to dodge, but found that he had been locked by the powerful aura and could not move. At that critical moment, he could only hold the magic wand in his hand across his chest in an attempt to resist this fatal blow.
The golden rune array hit the black-robed leader's magic wand hard, making a loud noise that shook the earth. Then, Chu Mochen's sword was like a flash of lightning, penetrating the defense of the magic wand and stabbing straight into the chest of the black-robed leader. The black-robed leader let out a shrill scream, and his body flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, hitting the stone wall of the cave hard, creating a huge deep pit in the stone wall.
For a moment, the spiritual power in the cave was rampant, and the light was flashing, as if the end of the world had come. After a long time, the light gradually dissipated and the dust settled. The black-robed leader lay in the deep pit, dying, with unwillingness and despair in his eyes. His men saw that the leader was seriously injured and had already fled in fear, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen smiled at each other, their tense nerves finally relaxed. The two slowly walked together, supporting each other. Their clothes were torn, covered in blood, and they looked miserable, but their eyes revealed the joy of victory.
"Brother Chu, we won..." Yun Yao said softly, with a hint of fatigue in her voice, but full of relief.
"Yes, we won." Chu Mochen smiled slightly, reached out and gently stroked Yun Yao's hair, his eyes full of tenderness and pampering.
However, before they could enjoy the joy of victory too much, the token in Yun Yao's hand began to shine again, and the runes jumped, as if conveying some information to them. Yun Yao looked down at the token, and her heart moved. Could this be the key to get out of trouble and continue to explore her life experience? She and Chu Mochen looked at each other, and a firm look flashed in their eyes at the same time. They decided to continue moving forward in the direction indicated by the token. No matter what was waiting for them ahead, they would work together and never leave each other.
