Chapter 720: Breaking Danger and Moving Forward: Xiao Bei's Resoluteness
Lingfeng walked to the edge of the crack, looked down, his face suddenly changed: "This..." He took a breath of cold air. The crack was bottomless, and the darkness was like a giant beast that devoured everything. The heart-pounding cold air surged out from the abyss, brushed across his face, and brought a biting coldness.
Xiao Bei walked to the edge of the crack, took a deep breath, and looked down.
The thick darkness was like a huge curtain, covering everything below. Only the whistling sound of the wind came from the abyss, like the howling of ghosts and wolves, which was creepy.
He frowned. The appearance of the crack disrupted their plans and brought new dangers.
Beili, Lingfeng and the ancient talisman master Mo Yuan also gathered around. The air at the edge of the crack seemed to solidify, and the tense atmosphere spread again.
Bei Li held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, her palms slightly sweating. She could feel the tension emanating from Xiao Bei.
"This crack seems insurmountable." Ancient Talisman Master Mo Yuan said in a deep voice. His voice was low and hoarse, with a barely perceptible tremor.
He carefully observed the edge of the crack and found that the cross-section of the rock was as smooth as a mirror and there was no place to gain leverage.
"Are we going to be trapped here?" There was a hint of despair in Lingfeng's voice. He looked around and found that they had no way to go except this bottomless crack.
Xiao Bei took a deep breath, "No, there must be a way." He mobilized the immortal power in his body, formed seals with his hands, and a golden light shot out from his hands, trying to build a immortal power bridge above the crack.
However, a powerful suction force suddenly emerged from the crack, swallowing up all the golden light, and the bridge collapsed instantly.
Xiao Bei groaned and his face turned slightly pale. The suction was much stronger than he had imagined.
He gritted his teeth and tried again, but it was still no use.
The suction in the crack was like a bottomless pit, devouring his immortal power and making him feel powerless.
Beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his forehead, but he still refused to give up and tried again and again.
"Xiao Bei, don't try again. You will get hurt if you continue like this." Bei Li looked at him distressedly.
Xiao Bei shook his head. At this moment, Tianjizi cautiously approached the edge of the crack, wanting to take a closer look...
Tianjizi cautiously moved towards the edge of the crack, his cloudy eyes flashing with curiosity, as if he wanted to see through the secrets of the abyss.
However, he underestimated the power of this crack.
A powerful suction force suddenly pulled him towards the abyss. Tianjizi screamed, staggered, and was about to be drawn into the endless darkness.
"Tianjizi!" Xiao Bei shouted and reached out to grab him without thinking.
He had only one thought in his mind at this moment: no one should be put in danger again!
He grasped Tianjizi's arm tightly, his muscles tensed and veins bulging, fighting against the terrifying suction.
The tense atmosphere seemed to freeze, and everyone held their breath, as if the slightest sound could break this fragile balance.
The whistling sound of the wind became sharper, like countless vengeful spirits howling in the ears. The cold air spread along the edge of the crack, making people's hands and feet numb.
Xiao Bei felt a sharp pain in his arm, and the suction seemed to tear him apart.
At this critical moment, Beili did not hide behind Xiao Bei for protection as usual.
She took out a crystal clear jade pendant from her waist. The jade pendant emitted a soft light, illuminating her resolute face.
She muttered something, and the light of the jade pendant became brighter and brighter, forming a protective barrier to resist the terrible suction.
Xiao Bei was stunned at first, then a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He had never seen Beili so decisive, which was completely different from her usual lively and clingy image.
The corners of his tight mouth lifted slightly.
The light of the jade pendant competes with the darkness of the crack, forming a strange balance.
The tension in everyone's hearts eased a little, but they still didn't dare to let their guard down.
What exactly is this jade pendant?
Can it truly combat this bottomless chasm?
Ancient Talisman Master Mo Yuan stared at the jade pendant, a strange light flashing in his eyes. He slowly said, "Is this... the protective jade of the ancient immortal race?"
Lingfeng stared at the crack closely. His intuition told him that things were far from simple.
He smelled a hint of danger, a scent more disturbing than the crack itself.
He whispered, "Be careful..." Suddenly, a sharp whistling sound came from the crack, and then countless green wind blades gushed out from the abyss like a storm, heading straight for everyone.
The wind blade was extremely fast, and its edge was as sharp as a knife. It cut through the air with a sharp sound, stirring up waves of air flow.
Xiao Bei was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He pulled Bei Li behind him and swung the sword in his hand. The sword light flashed and shattered the wind blades attacking them one by one.
The crisp sound of metal collision echoed in the air, and sparks flew everywhere.
Lingfeng, with his agility, dodged flexibly between the wind blades like a ghost.
"Be careful!" The ancient talisman master Mo Yuan shouted, and the talisman pen in his hand flew. The golden runes circled in the air like a dragon, and finally formed a translucent golden shield that enveloped everyone.
"Dang dang dang!" The wind blades hit the shield, making dense impact sounds and causing ripples.
Beili hid behind Xiao Bei, watching the fierce battle in front of him, feeling very worried.
The light of the jade pendant in her hand dimmed a little. She had consumed a lot of energy just now when resisting the suction of the crack.
Suddenly, a wind blade bypassed Xiao Bei's sword light and headed straight for her.
At the critical moment, Xiao Bei shattered the wind blade with a backhand palm, but the powerful impact also made his arm numb.
The jade pendant in Beili's hand was hit by the aftermath of the wind blade, and with a "crack", a crack appeared.
The light of the jade pendant also became dimmer, and the defensive power of the shield was significantly reduced.
"Beili, your jade pendant!" Xiao Bei noticed the changes in the jade pendant and his heart sank.
Bei Li looked at the jade pendant in his hand, "It's okay, Xiao Bei, I can still hold on."
Xiao Bei held Bei Li's hand tightly and gave her strength.
Bei Lihui held Xiao Bei's hand, and Xiao Bei's eyes became more determined. He must protect her and his friends.
Ling Feng dodged while observing the trajectory of the wind blades. He discovered that the wind blades were not attacking in a completely random pattern. It seemed...
"Xiao Bei, look!" Ling Feng suddenly pointed to the depths of the crack and spoke in a hurried tone.
Xiao Bei looked in the direction indicated by the spiritual wind, and his pupils suddenly shrank...
Deep in the crack, a huge shadow is slowly rising.
The shadow covered the sky and the sun, and as it rose, the whistling sound in the crack became louder and louder, as if it was the roar of a giant beast from ancient times.
"What is that?" Bei Li's voice trembled slightly. She held Xiao Bei's hand tightly, her fingertips were cold.
Xiao Bei narrowed his eyes, trying hard to see the true face of the shadow.
He noticed that the wind blade's attacks were not random, but changed with the movement of the shadow.
Every time the shadow rises a certain distance, the wind blade's attack will become more violent, and when the shadow stops, the wind blade's attack will temporarily stop.
"The wind blade's attack is related to the movement of that thing!" Xiao Bei's mind moved, and he immediately understood the key.
He shouted, "Everyone, pay attention! When that thing rises, the wind blades will attack. When it stops, the wind blades will stop! We need to find the right moment to dodge!"
Xiao Bei's judgment was very accurate.
He calmly observed the movement of the shadows and directed everyone to move between the wind blades.
Ling Feng was agile and could always dodge the wind blades at the critical moment; the ancient rune master Mo Yuan used runes to reinforce his shield to resist the dense wind blades; although Bei Li was afraid, he still held the jade pendant tightly in his hand, providing weak protection for everyone.
Under Xiao Bei's command, everyone successfully dodged wave after wave of wind blade attacks.
They cooperated well and moved with precision, like a well-trained team.
Every successful dodge boosted their confidence.
"Xiao Bei, you are so amazing!" Ling Feng praised sincerely.
Ancient Talisman Master Mo Yuan also nodded slightly in agreement.
Beili hugged Xiao Bei's arm tightly.
Xiao Bei felt the admiring gazes from those around him, and a sense of confidence surged in his heart.
He took a deep breath and stared firmly into the depths of the crack, thinking about how to cross this chasm.
At this moment, the huge shadow finally appeared completely.
Only then did everyone see clearly that it was actually a huge Sky-Splitting Beast!
It has a hard shell, sharp claws, and a bloody mouth full of fangs.
It slowly crawled out of the crack, and every step made the earth tremble and make a dull sound.
"Split...Split the Sky Beast..." The ancient talisman master Mo Yuan's voice was full of disbelief. The talisman pen in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
Lingfeng took a deep breath and his face turned pale.
Beili was so frightened that she hugged Xiao Bei tightly, her body trembling.
Xiao Bei looked at the huge Sky-Splitting Beast without any fear in his eyes.
He gripped the weapon tightly in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Prepare for battle!"
