Chapter 560 System Truth
The ancient sea of the Southern Wasteland was turbulent, as if a group of giant beasts lurking in the endless abyss, ready to drag intruders into the seabed and sink into darkness forever. The sea breeze whistled past with a salty, humid and decayed smell, making people's skin hurt, as if thousands of fine blades were cutting. Yun Yao and Chu Mochen struggled to travel through this harsh environment, surrounded by heavy fog, obstructing their vision, and every step seemed to be stepping on the void, full of unknown dangers.
After going through untold hardships, they finally arrived at the depths of the ancient sea. In front of them, a huge clam shell stood quietly, like an ancient and mysterious fortress. The surface of the clam shell exuded a cold blue light, and the halo seemed to be telling the vicissitudes of endless years. The light seemed to have magic, attracting Yun Yao to approach involuntarily. Around, hundreds of corpses of cultivators were floating in all directions, their faces were distorted, and their eyes were filled with fear and despair in their lifetime. They all wore silver bracelets similar to Yun Yao's system on their wrists. Under the reflection of the dim light, they flashed a strange cold light, as if silently warning of the danger here.
Yun Yao took a deep breath, suppressed her anxiety, slowly reached out her hand, and touched the core component emitting blue light with her fingertips. In an instant, it was as if an electric current hit her soul, and her body trembled violently. Then, the system interface collapsed completely without any warning, and the familiar panel turned into countless flashing data fragments, floating in the void like snowflakes. Instead, there was a space full of science fiction, as if she was in the core control room of the future world.
Countless data light bands crisscrossed, like the veins of the universe, flowing freely in this space. In the light bands, a familiar voice sounded faintly: "Hello host, this is the 79th supervision system of the Spacetime Administration Bureau. Your crossing is not an accident, but..." The voice stopped abruptly, as if it was suddenly cut off by an invisible hand.
The space seemed to have suffered a violent earthquake and began to shake violently. In the flickering light, a mysterious man wearing a bronze mask, like a demon stepping out of the endless darkness, rushed out of the light band with a suffocating sense of oppression. His figure was ghostly and his speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already bullied Yun Yao. He was holding Chu Mochen's broken Dragon Roar Sword in his hand. The cracks on the sword body were like hideous wounds, emitting a cold chill.
"Yun Yao, hand over the core components and I will let Chu Mochen go!" The mysterious man's voice seemed to come through layers of ice, cold and threatening, echoing in this empty space, making people's eardrums hurt.
Chu Mochen's eyes instantly became as sharp as an eagle's. He rushed forward without hesitation and instantly blocked Yun Yao. His posture was as straight as a pine tree, like an indestructible barrier, protecting Yun Yao behind him. The determination and firmness revealed in his eyes seemed to be silently declaring that even if he tried his best, he would never allow the other party to hurt Yun Yao in the slightest.
The moment the mysterious man saw the jade pendant on Chu Mochen’s chest, he was like being struck by lightning. His body suddenly stiffened and his voice suddenly changed, with a hint of disbelief and inexplicable panic: "So you are the..." Before he finished speaking, it seemed as if countless unknown secrets were hidden, quietly spreading in the air.
Yun Yao stood behind Chu Mochen, staring at the mysterious man, with a myriad of thoughts in her mind. Her palms were full of sweat, her heart was beating like a drum, and her mind was working rapidly, trying to find a chance to turn this chaotic situation around. The mysterious man in front of them was unfathomable, and he was holding Chu Mochen's sword in his hand. The situation was extremely unfavorable for them. But she knew very well that she must not panic at this moment, because even a slight flaw could put them in an irretrievable situation.
Chu Mochen clenched his fists, his spiritual power surging wildly in his body, like a volcano about to erupt, ready to give the mysterious man a fatal blow at any time. He slightly turned sideways, glanced at Yun Yao with his peripheral vision, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." Although the voice was soft, it seemed to carry endless power, which calmed Yun Yao's panicked heart a little.
Yun Yao nodded slightly, and quickly scanned the surrounding data light bands and mysterious space, trying to find flaws in this space or rules that could be used. Suddenly, she had an idea, and remembered that she had repeatedly escaped danger in many desperate situations with her unique understanding of the integration of technology and cultivation. Perhaps, this time, she could find another way.
She quietly mobilized the data spiritual root in her body and closely combined her spiritual power with it, as if awakening the mysterious power dormant in the depths of her soul. A faint stream of data began to flicker at her fingertips, like a lively elf, jumping and flickering.
"Hmph, you want to resist? You are overestimating yourself!" The mysterious man snorted coldly, and waved the Dragon Roar Sword in his hand. A black sword energy was like a sword that could split the sky, carrying endless pressure, and slashed towards Chu Mochen and Yun Yao. Wherever the sword energy passed, the space seemed to be torn apart, and a sharp wailing sound was emitted.
Chu Mochen's eyes condensed. Although he didn't have a sword in his hand, he seemed to hold a huge force. He shouted loudly, and the power of the sword master in his body burst out instantly. He pushed his palms forward, and a golden light curtain was like a shield from God, crashing into the black sword energy. The moment the two collided, it was like stars colliding, the light was so dazzling that people couldn't open their eyes. The powerful impact was like a surging tide, shaking the surrounding data light bands into pieces.
Yun Yao took advantage of this brief gap in the confrontation and focused all her attention on the broken Dragon Roar Sword. She found that although the mysterious man held the sword, he did not completely control the spiritual power fluctuations on it, as if there was some subtle repulsion between the two. She was moved, could it be that this was because the Dragon Roar Sword was connected to Chu Mochen's soul, and even if it was broken, it would not recognize anyone else as its master?
Thinking of this, Yun Yao's eyes flashed, and she quickly merged the core component in her hand with the system mark. In an instant, a powerful data force surged out like a flood. The data spiritual roots seemed to have turned into thousands of smart tentacles, entwining the fragments of the Dragon Roar Sword. Under the nourishment and repair of the data power, the fragments of the Dragon Roar Sword seemed to be inspired by the wanderer, slowly trembling, and the blue light emitted became more and more dazzling, and gradually condensed into a quantum sword that flashed with strange blue light.
"Chu Mochen, do you still remember the agreement we made in the back mountain of Qinglan Sect?" Yun Yao thrust the newly condensed hilt of the sword into Chu Mochen's hand, staring at him firmly. At the same time, as if being pulled by a mysterious force, the twin contract patterns appeared on their wrists, and the light flowed, as if telling of their bond across time and space.
"It's my turn to protect you this time." Yun Yao said softly. Although her voice was gentle, it seemed to carry an unquestionable determination.
The moment Chu Mochen grasped the quantum sword, he seemed to merge with the sword, and a familiar yet unfamiliar powerful force flowed into his body along his arm. He felt Yun Yao's heart and trust, and his eyes became more resolute, like burning stars.
The mysterious man saw this scene and secretly said in his heart that it was not good. The appearance of the twin contract patterns made him clearly aware of a powerful force flowing between the two of them, as if forming an indestructible field of defense and attack. He gritted his teeth and decided to take the initiative. He swung the quantum sword again and performed a set of extremely sharp sword techniques. The sword shadows seemed to be filled with stars in the sky, covering Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.
Yun Yao faced the sword shadows like a rainstorm, but she seemed to be strolling in the garden. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, mobilized the data spiritual roots and spiritual power in her body, and hummed "The Guide to Rebirth" softly. As the tune sounded, a strange scene happened. This melody full of ancient charm seemed to turn into invisible runes, floating in the air. When the sword shadow touched the rune, it was like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun, and slowly melted.
Seeing this, the mysterious man was shocked and his attack became more and more crazy, but also more and more chaotic. He tried to forcefully break through the rune's defense, but found himself as if he was trapped in a quagmire. Every attack was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any response.
Yun Yao took advantage of the mysterious man's panic and suddenly opened her eyes. The light in her eyes was like the light of dawn. She quickly formed seals with her hands and chanted something, perfectly integrating the power of "The Guide to Rebirth" with the power of data, turning it into an invisible shackle that entangled the mysterious man.
The mysterious man sensed the danger and wanted to escape, but it was too late. The shackles were like a nimble snake, instantly wrapping around his limbs and waist, making him unable to move. While struggling, the bronze mask on his face slipped off quietly, revealing the face of the head master of Qinglan Sect!
Yun Yao and Chu Mochen were shocked by this scene, and stood there in shock and disbelief. They never thought that the head master, who was usually so sage and respected, would be the mysterious enemy hiding behind.
For a moment, the space seemed to fall into a deathly silence, with only the sea breeze whistling outside, as if wailing for this shocking truth...
